Dear researchers, colleagues, and readers interested in Internet-related research,

We are happy to present a summer issue of Cyberpsychology. It includes seven articles with a wide range of topics - from the exploration of the effect of an online simulation game on attitudes about poverty, through adolescents' perceptions of digital's media potential to elicit conflict in romantic relationships, to passive social networking site use effect on well-being - to name a few.

We wish you a pleasant reading and a relaxing summer!

Dear researchers, colleagues, and readers interested in Internet-related research,

We are excited to present you a new special issue about digital advertising and consumer empowerment. We would like to thank the guest editors Liselot Hudders (Ghent University), Eva A. van Reijmersdal (University of Amsterdam), and Karolien Poels (University of Amsterdam) for their hard work on the issue. We also thank the authors and reviewers of the articles. Their joint efforts led to an interesting collection of four articles that each bring new insight into the timely issue of digital advertising.

We hope you will find the articles as interesting as we do and we wish you a pleasant reading.

See the guest editor's editorial note on the digital advertising and consumer empowerment here. The whole issue can be found here.
