Reader's Digest Feb, 2014 のSocial Vocabのコーナーに "digital detox" なる言葉が The Oxford English Dictionaryに最近加えられたと書かれていたので、早速OEDオンライン辞書で確認しました。
informal: A period of time during which a person refrains from using electronic devices such as smartphones or computers, regarded as an opportunity to reduce stress or focus on social interaction in the physical world: ‘break free of your devices and go on a digital detox’
他の辞書もついでに見てみると、いつもよく使っている次ぎのオンライン辞書にも載っていました。
・Macmillan Dictionary: taking a break from the use of electronic devices such as computers, mobile phones, e-readers and MP3 players: But this is Digital Detox Week, when we are being asked to take a break from electronic entertainment to find out what we really enjoy.
・Dictionary.com: a period during which a person refrains from using digital or electronic devices, as to avoid distractions or make time for other activities: my week-long digital detox.
電車に乗っている時はもちろん、歩いている時、自転車に乗りながらもスマホを使っている人を多く見かける今日この頃です。 スマホ中毒の人には "digital detox" は確かに必要な気がします。
