ABSTRACT Using Giddens's structuration theory, this study examines how the routinized use of traditional and new media platforms differently align with the structures of everyday life. We analyzed data from a quantitative diary study in Germany to find that new media platforms specifically affect societal structuration by blurring the lines between obligations and leisure time. The part played by routines in the use of new media platforms was less strongly connected to clock time compared to traditional media platforms. Consequently, the findings indicate both a vanishing potential for media platform use as a social zeitgeber and the relevance of rules as structuring elements.

数字时代媒体平台使用的日常惯例：结构化视角

摘要 本研究使用吉登斯的结构化理论，考察了传统和新媒体平台的常规使用如何与日常生活结构不同地结合起来。我们分析了德国一项定量日记研究的数据，发现新媒体平台通过模糊义务和闲暇时间之间的界限来具体影响社会结构。与传统媒体平台相比，例行程序在使用新媒体平台时所起的作用与时钟时间的联系不那么紧密。因此，研究结果表明，媒体平台作为社交时代的使用潜力正在消失，而规则作为结构元素的相关性。
