A corrigendum on
Adaptivity as a key feature of mobile maps in the digital era

Reichenbacher, T., and Bartling, M. (2023). Front. Commun. 8:1258851. doi: 10.3389/fcomm.2023.1258851

In the published article, there was an error in Key challenges for designing adaptive mobile maps, User acceptance, paragraph 1, where the reference citation for Bouzit et al., 2017 was incorrectly written as Lavie and Meyer, 2010. The reference for Lavie and Meyer, 2010 was erroneously included in the published article, and has since been removed from the article citations and reference list. The affected sentence should have instead been written as follows:

“At the same time, acceptance is fragile because of possible problems with adaptivity (Bouzit et al., 2017): risk of misfit (user's needs are incorrectly captured or interpreted), user cognitive disruption (user is disrupted by the adaptation), lack of prediction (user does not know when and how the map will be adapted), lack of explanation (user is not informed about the reasons that triggered the adaptation), lack of control (user does not have the opportunity to participate actively in the adaptation process), risk for privacy (the map app maintains personal information that the user wishes to keep private).”

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
