The end of the phone call?
Is the phone call becoming a thing of the past? New
research suggests we are now more likely to text or email
friends or family than dial their number.
The amount of time we spend talking on our mobile phones
has gone down by 5% and by twice that for landline calls,
whereas the number of text messages we send has
doubled in the last few years.
The reasons for this may, in part, be because so many more
people have smartphones, which means we can
communicate using social networking, instant messaging,
and email instead. In fact, we prefer to use our phones to
play games, watch films, and look up information rather
than make a phone call and speak to someone!
Whatever the reason, there is no question that we have
changed the ways we use the telephone. These days we
often feel we shouldn’t call someone without making an
arrangement to call first. Many people are frustrated if they
are disturbed by an unexpected phone call. We want to be
able to choose when we reply and we don’t want to have to
chat when we are busy with something else. Written
communication allows us to respond quickly and
economically. It also means we can think about what we
want to say before we get in touch. Phones can also be
noisy in open-plan offices, and many people won’t call back
if you leave a message on their voicemail. They will email
instead.
On the other hand, some psychologists say text and email
are less rich and ‘colder’ because you lose the tone and
expression of conversation. Others would disagree and say
you don’t have to hear someone’s voice to have an
interesting and intimate conversation.
It isn’t surprising that research has found that for the
over-65s, phoning friends and family on a landline is still the
most popular way of getting in touch. Many of us hearing
the phone ring know it is probably our mother! You probably
won’t be amazed either to learn that the great majority
(83%) of adults of all ages said they still prefer to
communicate face to face.
