Pretending to text was conceptualized as when a person uses a cellphone to make it look like they are texting, but they are not actually sending messages. Little research is available from the adolescent perspective regarding self\u2010presentation and avoidance when using digital devices in social contexts.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A convergent mixed methods approach was used to understand the experience of high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors (<jats:italic>n\u202f=\u202f<\/jats:italic>216) in the United States.
