Technologic addiction

Abstract

The natural evolution of societies presents cultural and behavioral changes that we can interpret as normal and appropriate given the disposition and ease of access to new realities. In this context also the deviant behaviors are an expected consequence of this evolution itself. Interestingly, and because arising from the acceptance or ostracism from society itself, we find behaviors that we call fashions, habits accepted, current practices or in the opposite, vices, bad habits or reprehensible practices. This article aims to demystify some of the behaviors previously accepted by society coveredthe qualification from end to end, quoting today asmalicious and unwanted, when beforethey were recognized as natural, in view of the socio-cultural reality of the time. On the other hand, this article aims to introduce the concept of addition in both behavioral extremes, being that this symptom/ disease should be identified as a deviant behavior whatever its socio-cultural established connotation. The use of technology, although accepted by society, provides indicative of being able to be a strong candidate for top spots of a current and growing addictive behavior.
