Most feel compelled to constantly check e-mail, texts and social media: survey

Did your date check his e-mail just as you were about to deliver a punch line? Did your friend reply to a text while you were describing your boss’ broadside? Is your child so engrossed in whatever she’s doing on her iPhone that you must ask her multiple times to please pass the salt? 

And do you find yourself incapable of controlling an incessant urge to look at your smart phone or other electronic device?
