▼ Social media sources such as Twitter represent a massively distributed
social sensor over diverse topics ranging from
social and political events to entertainment and sports news. However, due to the overwhelming volume of content, it can be difficult to identify novel and significant content within a broad topic in a timely fashion. To this end, this thesis proposes a scalable and practical method to automatically construct
social sensors for generic topics. The concept of using
social media as a sensor for detection of events and news has been proposed in the literature. However, we argue that most of these works do not focus on targeted content detection or they use very basic methods for collecting the topical data for further analysis. This demonstrates a gap in the use of
social media as a sensor for high-quality topical content detection that we aim to address via machine learning. In this thesis, given minimal supervised training content from a user, we learn to identify topical tweets from millions of features capturing content, user and
social interactions on Twitter. On a corpus of over 800 million English Tweets collected from the Twitter streaming API during 2013 and 2014 and learning for 10 diverse topics, we empirically show that our learned
social sensor automatically generalizes to unseen future content with high ranking and precision scores. Furthermore, we provide an extensive analysis of features and feature types across different topics that reveals, for example, that (1) largely independent of topic, simple terms are the most informative feature followed by location features and that (2) the number of unique hashtags and tweets by a user correlates more with their informativeness than their follower or friend count. In summary, this work provides a novel, effective, and efficient way to learn topical
social sensors requiring minimal user curation effort and offering strong generalization performance for identifying future topical content.

▼ This project investigates the extent of English use in Finland on the
Social Media platform Twitter and characterizes the properties of the variety Finland Twitter English. User messages in a novel, 1m – token corpus of Twitter data from Finland were disambiguated for language and language choice correlated with geographical and demographic factors. English user messages were annotated with part-of-speech tags and the principal lexical and grammatical characteristics of Finland Twitter English, including the relationship between feature frequency and gender, determined by comparing aggregate feature frequencies to those of a similarly processed non-Finland Twitter English corpus, using a statistical measure of association and multidimensional techniques. The lexical and grammatical features most characteristic of Finland Twitter English discourse reflect the primarily interactive communicative orientation of the userbase, which utilizes those language features most closely associated with the technological newness of the communication platform in order to establish and negotiate meaning.

▼ In 2009, Toni Carey and Ashley Hicks created Black Girls RUN! (BGR), a blog
turned national running organization created to help tackle the growing obesity epidemic in the Black community. In recent years, BGR has proven to be an important cultural,
social, and health phenomenon inspiring more than 100,000 women to hit the pavement. This dissertation explores the influence and appeal of BGR with various approaches, including a critical textual analysis of 1,062 Instagram posts taggedblackgirlsrun. That analysis is combined with a broad cultural contextualization supported by ten qualitative interviews, participant observation, and auto-ethnography. Findings show that the daily
use of #blackgirlsrun on
social media has spurred a national dialogue on Black women’s health issues and also generated a virtual health community where women can seek out information and support that spans across traditional barriers of distance and time. The various cultural and
social practices occurring within the stream of #blackgirlsrun reinforce the role of evolving communication technology in community formation. The viral nature of the group’s message demonstrates the importance of cultural relevance in promoting health and empowering target audience members to adopt new behaviors. These findings suggest that Black Girls RUN! and the
social media hashtag, #blackgirlsrun, have significant implications for the fields of mass communication and health promotion.

▼ How
social media impact lives professionally, personally, and theoretically has been an issue that fascinates academics and non-academics. Drawing on theoretical tenets from Erving Goffman’s dramaturgy theory, as well as conventions of postmodernist narratives and digital literacy narratives, I present the case that the “millennial” generation came of age with the internet, and this life-long relationship impacts how this age group constructs narratives across
social media platforms today. They engage in “identity bending,” that is, constructing online identities that differ from their offline ones. These online identities are also not the same across
social media platforms. Using traditional approaches to autoethnography, as well as constructs of digital ethnography, I engage in life narrative research to study these issues through the span of my own life, and present an autobiographical case for how growing up with the internet and
social media affect how I use them today.

▼ This study aims at examining how the
social media, particularly the Facebook has been serving
as an alternative forum for discussing politics in Ethiopia. The study was situated within the
theoretical framework of Habermas public sphere.
The study employed both qualitative and quantitative methods. For the qualitative method, data
gathering tools such as interview, observation, and text of Facebook postings were used.
Interviews were conducted with sixteen activists, bloggers, journalists and politicians selected
through convenience and snowball sampling methods. The data was collected from mid July to
September 2012. For quantitative method, survey was used as a data gathering tool. The survey
questionnaire was administered to 103 people selected through random sampling technique.
Descriptive statistics was employed to analyze the quantitative data.
The analysis of the data reveals that the
social media in general and Facebook in particular is
providing an alternative platform for those who have access to freely discuss political issues that
would otherwise be off the limit in the conventional public sphere in the Ethiopian context. What
is more, Faceook is even serving as a source for the mainstream
media for political news and
there by challenging the conventional role reserved for mainstream journalism. This being the
case, however, Facebook use is facing challenges which could be classified into user-related
challenges and government-related challenges. Based on the findings, some recommendations
are suggested.

Spurred by the actions in Arab Spring and calls for action in reaction to the housing crisis, the Occupy Movement started in the United States and spread globally, addressing a widening range of perceived institutional injustices. Members of the movement used social media to organize and connect with each other and sparked discussion about social media's role in this potentially new era of social movements. This mixed-method study explores Occupiers' sense of collective identity with the movement and the effect of social media use on their identity as well as the state of the Occupy Movement years after its genesis.

▼ Ph.D. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2013.
Research has focused on attaining higher levels of student success that are attributed to active and collaborative learning, driven by student-generated, ubiquitous, transparent environments. This research attempts to answer the question: can social networking technologies, linked with academic coursework and student support services, increase levels of self-efficacy leading to student success and retention?
The constructs used to measure the outcomes of participating in a social networking environment include perceived sociability of the technology used and the formal and informal peer interactions that occur and self-efficacy levels. In a design-based research environment, an experiment took place over the course of three semesters. It was proposed that the perceived sociability and formal and informal peer interactions will increase the students' self-efficacy levels. This impact will drive higher levels of student success and retention in their academic career endeavors. The research takes place in the framework of design-based research, and focuses on defining technology as a process, not just an artifact that can impact teaching and learning methods.
Results support the theories related to perceived sociability of computer learning environments, effects of peer interaction and self-efficacy on course completion, and retention. There was considerable overall support for the proposed theoretical model.
However differential effects of the social networking treatment were mixed as not all the results showed a significant difference in impact between the treatment and control groups. A path analysis evaluation showed that peer interaction and the treatment intervention had a predicted effect on academic self-efficacy. A test of indirect effects of using the social networking on student success and retention showed small, but significant, indirect effects mediated through self-efficacy. This indirect impact of the social networking treatment on student success through self-efficacy provides support for the overall conceptual model. The results do provide a great deal of practical guidance as the aim to create a campus-wide social networking environment continues at the selected college.

▼ Social media has become popular for both personal and business use. Employees are increasingly using blogs and
social networking sites. Companies are utilizing
social media for marketing and advertising as well as for connecting with their publics. The benefits of sites such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Flikr and blogs are increasing for businesses. However, so are the risks.
The need for company
social media policies has been documented. Alice Harrison of the Public Relations Society of America states that such a policy is crucial because a “well-constructed policy ensures that the organization is speaking with a unified voice” (Harrison, 2010, p.1). Because companies are using
social media more often now to communicate with their publics, it is imperative that they recognize the risks. The issue is that there is little consensus about how these policies should be written, what they should include and what they should avoid. As
social media is a new field, companies are having difficulty defining policies for employee use of
social media because its “prevalence…can give rise to employer liability” (FindLaw, 2011, p.1). Businesses must focus on the development of an effective
social media policy.
The purpose of this special project is to use research on
social media policies to evaluate one firm’s current policy and to develop for them a set of
social media guidelines. The firm chosen is a New England law firm based. The guidelines will cover both work-related use of
social media and off-site personal use of
social media.
Formative evaluation will be the methodology used to identify specific needs, as well as to develop a set of recommendations. Formative evaluation applies because the firm currently

has an electronic communication policy in place. The research will evaluate that policy against legal precedent and best practices.
A communication plan for informing and training employees on this policy will also be developed. The firm must not only implement an effective
social media policy but must also educate its employees of the policy and its limitations. Employees must be aware of the consequences their actions can potentially cause for the firm, as well as for them.

▼ In a series of four studies, the aim of the current research project was to examine cyberbullying victimisation in adolecents in social networking sites (SNS). The first study investigated adolescent victims’ definition of cyberbullying, the specific types of cyberbullying experienced in SNS and the associated impact . Results showed that participants’ definition of cyberbullying was more complex than had been reported in previously published research. The most referenced criterion was impact on victim. It was also found that 68% of victims reported experiencing a combined emotional, social and behavioural impact for each cyberbullying experience and 12% reported no impact at all. The second study, using a qualitative inductive approach, found a set of strong themes relating to factors that either increased the severity of impact of cyberbullying victimisation or buffered victims against the impact. Themes related to publicity, anonymity of perpetrators, features of the medium, presence of bystanders, and individual-level factors were identified as potential influences upon impact severity. The aim of the third study was to develop and investigate the psychometric properties of a measure of exposure to and impact of cyberbullying victimisation in SNS in adolescents, whilst taking into consideration previous measurement limitations. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used in the development and validation of the Social Networking Experiences Questionnaire (SNEQ). Preliminary psychometric analyses showed that the SNEQ was a valid and reliable measurement tool and has multiple uses in research, education and clinical settings. The aim of the fourth study was to explore whether specific online self-presentation behaviours in SNS increase the likelihood of cyberbullying victimisation for adolescents. This study focused on whether information in SNS profiles contributed to risk of being cyberbullied. Using a comprehensive coding scheme, the contents of adolescents’ Facebook pages were numerically recorded and used to predict cyberbullying victimisation. A number of self-presentation behaviours that predicted victimisation were found. It was concluded that the findings need to be integrated into preventative education programs to assist adolescents in decreasing their risk for cyberbullying victimisation.

▼ The increasing popularity of
social media has changed
the web from a static repository of information into a dynamic
forum with continuously changing information.
Social media
platforms has given the capability to people expressing and sharing
their thoughts and opinions on the web in a very simple way. The
so-called User Generated Content is a good source of users opinion
and mining it can be very useful for a wide variety of applications
that require understanding the public opinion about a concept. For
example, enterprises can capture the negative or positive opinions
of customers about their services or products and improve their
quality accordingly. The dynamic nature of
social media with the
constantly changing vocabulary, makes developing tools that can
automatically track public opinion a challenge. To help users
better understand public opinion towards an entity or a topic, it
is important to: a) find the related documents and the sentiment
polarity expressed in them; b) identify the important time
intervals where there is a change in the opinion; c) identify the
causes of the opinion change; d) estimate the number of people that
have a certain opinion about the entity; and e) measure the impact
of public opinion towards the entity. In this thesis we focus on
the problem of tracking public opinion on
social media and we
propose and develop methods to address the different subproblems.
First, we analyse the topical distribution of tweets to determine
the number of topics that are discussed in a single tweet. Next, we
propose a topic specific stylistic method to retrieve tweets that
are relevant to a topic and also express opinion about it. Then, we
explore the effectiveness of time series methodologies to track and
forecast the evolution of sentiment towards a specific topic over
time. In addition, we propose the LDA & KL-divergence approach
to extract and rank the likely causes of sentiment spikes. We
create a test collection that can be used to evaluate methodologies
in ranking the likely reasons of sentiment spikes. To estimate the
number of people that have a certain opinion about an entity, we
propose an approach that uses pre-publication and post- publication
features extracted from news posts and users' comments
respectively. Finally, we propose an approach that propagates
sentiment signals to measure the impact of public opinion towards
the entity's reputation. We evaluate our proposed methods on
standard evaluation collections and provide evidence that the
proposed methods improve the performance of the state-of-the-art
approaches on tracking public opinion on
social
media.

▼ Crowdsourcing is one of the innovative ways organizations are employing to gather quality ideas from a large group of people. It is used when organizations need to involve a larger group of participants who are collectively invested in the outcome, such as for initiatives with organization-wide implications, that which small group brainstorming cannot sufficiently accomplish. The unpredictability of the process from start to finish however raises questions on the conditions suitable for the large-scale online ideation process that belies the collective action, because it does not seem to parallel that of small group brainstorming. This dissertation documents a mixed-methods case study of a regulatory organization that used enterprise social media for large-scale ideation, with a focus on identifying the enabling conditions for large-scale online ideation, and the factors that may influence the quality of the ideation process. The study found that the process is conditional on having an emergent facilitator, a longer deadline, not having participants pre-selected, and technology that has unique affordances for ideation. The study also found that functional diversity, number of comments, and presence of facilitator are significant predictors for the quality of the ideation process. The study has theoretical and practical implications on ideation, enterprise social media use, collective action, and for organizational communication.

▼ This project explores the connection between information-seeking strategies used in impression formation and on self-presentation in social media. The goal is to amplify and quantify earlier findings of a recursive relationship between seeking and providing interpersonal information in social media environments (Ellison, Heino, & Gibbs 2006). This study builds on two trends identified by researchers. Using Ramirez, et al.’s (2002) model as a guide, it notes that due to changes in the ways in which social media is presented and consumed, the active and interactive strategies – while still important – are becoming increasingly less dominant over the passive and extractive strategies (Antheunis, Valkenburg, & Peter, 2010). Second, it notes that the “vocabulary” of social interaction in social media has expanded to include a whole raft of indirect interactions (liking, sharing, emoji, etc.) that carry meaning and information in ways that differ from the primarily text-based overt communications that characterized social media previously (McEwan, 2013; Oh, Ozkaya, & LaRose, 2014). This study supposes that there exists some connection between the increasing prevalence of passive and extractive types of social information seeking in social media, and the increasing prevalence of the use of indirect communication for the purposes of self-presentation and impression management. This study seeks to understand the nature of this connection by using a mixed-method approach in order to establish a holistic understanding of the interaction between information seeking, uncertainty reduction, and identity management in a single, cohesive theoretical structure. As such, qualitative and quantitative techniques were used to compose a model of information seeking and impression formation. Termed the “Identity Formation / Information Seeking (IF/IS)” Model, it is designed specifically for the investigation of behavior related to these phenomena in social media. It identifies five use types or “personas” that are both drawn from and applicable to quantitative and qualitative data. Further, this model identifies a set of variables that can be used to efficiently model behavior in each of these interaction modes. Finally, the model illustrates and measures changes in use patterns surrounding both information seeking (increasingly passive/extractive), and communication (increasingly indirect), providing some explanation for the convergent trends identified above.

▼ This dissertation investigates the ways in which distributed workers in a global high-tech organization engage with the affordances of enterprise social media for their everyday knowledge sharing practices. Drawing on the scholarship of process of knowing, I elaborate on how communication visibility, enabled by the use of enterprise social media, is closely intertwined with the situational, relational, and material aspects of knowing. To offer an in-depth understanding of emerging knowledge sharing practices among globally distributed workers, I employed a mixed-methods approach analyzing different types of data including quantitative, social network, and qualitative data. The findings highlight the visibility paradox: communication visibility facilitates knowledge sharing, yet brings into high relief existing knowledge disparities among diverse groups, which in turn reinforces status differentials. Illustrating the intended and unintended consequences of technology adoption, this study disentangles the complex interrelationships among visibility, status hierarchies, and process of knowing. Although an enterprise social media platform was implemented to improve knowledge sharing across borders, emerging usage patterns ironically contributed to exacerbating knowledge disparities, which subsequently reproduced status asymmetry in the organization. This study builds a granular understanding of the paradoxical influences of visibility on knowledge sharing by presenting three central themes: knowledge (awareness of knowledge conversations vs. awareness of knowledge disparities), connectivity (connections as resources vs. connections as challenges), and power (leveraging panoptic effect vs. controlled by panoptic effect). These three constructs of knowledge, connectivity, and power are important status signals that are shaped by the visibility effects. This dissertation contributes to expanding the scholarship of organizational knowledge and paradox as well as extends practical insight into the management of technology, knowledge, and diversity in a global organization.

▼ Communities have come to rely on technology to enhance public safety and communication during disasters. With nearly one-third of online adults receiving information from government organizations using digital tools other than websites, it is no surprise that increasingly government organizations are leveraging
social media to push out information to their communities. My interest in the topic of government use of
social media during disasters began when I began managing
social media platforms for a city emergency medical services system. My hope for the research is to reveal how government organizations are using
social media for emergency management and to discover what they have learned. This paper reviews literature about community use of
social media during various stages of disasters, and includes findings from interviews with five government organizations regarding their
social media use during emergency events. The goal of the research is to develop a deeper conversation among government and emergency management professionals to establish a direction for further research. Eventually, this ongoing research will better quantify the value of
social media use by government organizations during disasters so they can make informed decisions on how government can best utilize
social media platforms.

▼ This research explores how social media can effectively be used by community activists to influence negative cultural assumptions. This study focused on challenging stereotypical attitudes towards Muslim women who wear hijab. Ten participants responded to a pre-campaign survey, which gathered their attitudes towards head coverings, specifically people in baseball caps (non-religious headgear) and hijabs (Muslim headscarf). Participants then followed a two-
week social media campaign, developed with the Canadian Council of Muslim Women (Toronto chapter), that addressed common assumptions about women in hijab, and answered a post-campaign survey to assess the campaign’s impact. Seven participants said the campaign successfully challenged negative stereotypes about women who wear hijab, and five said the campaign positively influenced their ideas about this cultural group. Participants said the profiles of successful women who wear hijab were most effective, which seems to indicate that positive stories may have more impact in creating social change.

▼ In the last few centuries, information has highly appreciated in value and its sources have greatly increased in number. The introduction of the web 2.0, which allowed users not only to retrieve but also generate information as authors, gave birth to a whole new data source called social media. Social media is a term that integrates technology, social interaction and user generated content and differs from traditional broadcasting. It commonly comprises of technologies such as instant messaging programs, discussion forums, weblogs and wikis. Facebook, YouTube and Wikipedia are examples of popular social media websites. The information generated is greatly useful to individuals, organizations, institutions and governments globally. But this information tends to be highly unstructured and certain times not trustworthy. Social Computing is a novel and emerging computing paradigm that involves a multi-disciplinary approach in analyzing and modeling social behaviors on different media and platforms to produce intelligent and interactive applications and results. The objective of this project is to summarize social media opinions on various subjects with the focus on Twitter and Facebook microblog systems. In this project, we propose and attempt to implement a system that uses various machine learning and computational techniques used in Social Computing to collect, extract, process, mine, and visualize the data. This summarization task is different from traditional text summarization because we are only interested in the positive, negative and neutral opinions people have expressed on specific features or topics. This will be done at both the sentence and at the post level (document level).Keywords: Social media, web crawling, text processing, data mining, machine learning, topic detection, sentiment analysis, quality content detection.

▼ Research indicates employers use
social media, such as Facebook and LinkedIn, to make decision regarding would-be employees. A scarce amount of academic research specifically examines the decision-making processes employers use when using
social media to select the best job applicant for the job. This study focuses on how
social media impacts hiring processes, investigating the impact of political attitudes expressed on
social media impact managers’ evaluations of how “hireable” job candidates are. This study also examines how individuating information, also known as job-related information, presented on
social media influences employer decisions to hire job candidates. To test the research model, an experimental design was used. Three separate political conditions were used to test how applicant attitudes about legalizing marijuana, the Affordable Healthcare Act and gun control laws, as well as high and low levels of individuating information, displayed on Facebook and LinkedIn profiles affect hireability evaluations. Whether
social media platform influences decision-making was also tested. Structural Equation Modeling, a combination of path analysis and factor analysis, was employed to test the model relationships. Our results indicate a number of significant relationships, including relationships between similarity, liking, and hireability in all three conditions, individuating information and hireability, with moderating effects of
social media platform proving significant in some political conditions as well.

▼ <h2>”The modern library in the network society”</h2> A study of cultural politicians and librarians opinions about libraries' use of social media Social media is becoming more and more interacted in our daily lives and Carlsson (2013) argues that today's libraries have undergone major challenges in the digital information technology's entry in the library arena. The new technology has led to sum up in one question: how a library should relate to the digital information technology, the issue has applied in particular the social communications media, such as Facebook, Twitter and more. The purpose of this paper is to examine the culture of politicians and librarians 'perceptions of public libraries' use of social media linked to the libraries and their democracy promotion efforts. This is analyzed from Castells theories about the network society and the digital divide. In summary, the study concluded that the majority of the culture politicians and librarians believe that social media is a part of the future of the library. But they have different views on how to get there, cultural politicians describe the ideas for the library and the use of social media more visionary, while the librarians descriptions are more closely with the business. The possibility of dual communication instead of one-way communication took many respondents as an important part of the library's presence on social media. The importance of the library's democracy promotion efforts to reach out to everyone even those as defined by or at risk of falling into the digital divide is also discussed in the study.

▼ The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between
social media characteristics—interactivity, informativeness, and source credibility—and consumers’ perceived usefulness of
social media platforms, and in turn, their electronic word-of-mouth intentions. Chinese consumers age over 18 who are WeChat users were asked to participate in the survey. A total of 543 questionnaires were received, and 502 of them were analyzed in SPSS. According to the result of factor analysis, informativeness was eliminated from the original three factors of
social media characteristics. Regression analyses were then conducted to test the relationships among the remaining variables. The results indicated significant relationships between all of the variables. Significant direct impacts between
social media characteristics and electronic word-of-mouth intention were also found in this study.

▼ Persons with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (pALS) who have complex communication needs are at an increased risk for social isolation and exclusion due to a variety of barriers that impede social participation. Internet-based communications have become ubiquitous in modern society and critical to social inclusion and participation. Recent research has suggested that persons with complex communication needs can benefit from Internet-based communications such as social networking sites to support communication and improve upon social participation (Caron & Light, 2015). This study aimed to inform models of practice by exploring the social networks and online communication perspectives of pALS who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) using a parallel mixed methods approach. Two research questions were posed: 1) what is the size and typology of the social networks of pALS who use AAC, and 2) what are the perspectives of pALS in using Internet-based communications to interact with these networks? Eight participants with ALS who used AAC completed a questionnaire related to their social networks. Six of those participants shared their perspectives regarding use of Internet-based communications via web-based interviews. Five participants were video recorded composing and sending an email using their assistive technology. The study found that despite many barriers to accessing the Internet, persons with ALS use Internet-based communications to enhance their opportunities for social inclusion, which may promote their ability to maintain their pre-ALS social roles, independence, and quality of life. The findings support the inclusion of Internet-based communications when conceptualizing the social participation of persons with complex communication needs.

▼ The dissertation examined the dynamics of the 2012 Diaoyu Islands dispute on Sina Weibo across three layers: users, content, and role of platform. At the user layer, the research identifies the prominent users as elite framers on Weibo, whose discussions on the dispute dominated the framing of the issue. The most influential users are identified as predominately urban, middle class, more educated males, implying a profound inequality in the power to drive and direct the discourses on Weibo or in contemporary Chinese society. At the content layer, the dissertation discovers the major topics and frames that emerged from the discussion. It identified 11 topics via a labeled LDA topic model and then consolidated them into three major frames of Chinese cyber nationalism: nonofficial, official, and relational nationalism frames. The interactions among the
social groups using the three major frames demonstrated that Chinese cyber nationalism inherited and strategically adopted the cyber nationalistic discourse from the pre-
social media era; however, the dissertation found a contrasting and reconciling cyber nationalism advocated by the opinion leaders which mediated between official and popular nationalism in China. Third, the dissertation explored the roles of Weibo in the islands dispute and sought further theorization of the online space in China. As the dissertation identifies the proliferation of the “duanzi” culture among the Weibo users on the discussion of national affairs, it challenges the line of researches which only concentrate on the surveillance and censorship dynamics in Chinese internet study. A dark side of Weibo has been uncovered in the permission and promotion of fake news and misinformation on Weibo, as found elsewhere in the resurgence of nationalistic sentiments and national politics in the world.
This dissertation represents the first framing study of Chinese cyber nationalism on
social media. The dual rise of cyber nationalism and
social media in China is not an isolated, discrete, and fragmented episode of global politics. This dissertation provides a comprehensive picture of the
social players, their discourses, and power dynamics in a national/international affair of the century-long Diaoyu Islands dispute, one of the most explosive national security conflicts in the world.

▼ Blogs provide unique authoring affordances for young children. To date, however, research has focused on older children, teenagers and adults as bloggers, and is limited in accounting for the semiotic roles of facilities, such as commenting and tagging. In contrast, this thesis is concerned with the intersection of technological and semiotic affordances of blogs. More specifically, it provides an account of the linguistic nature of blogs as collaborative texts, co-constructed by young blog authors and their audiences.
The study investigated 48 blogs authored by five- to eight-year-old children. The theoretical orientation was systemic functional linguistics (SFL). In accounting for the nature of blog co-construction, techno-semiotic linguistic resources deployed in the dataset were examined in terms of the three metafunctions of SFL – textual, interpersonal and ideational.
The study used a small-scale corpus content analysis to describe the semiotic context of the blogs in the study. Small-scale analysis also determined the techno-semiotic resources deployed across the corpus, especially those used for realising the textual metafunction in blog co-construction. Individual text analyses were also undertaken on comment-active and tag-active blogs, to explicate the use of interactive and evaluative resources in blog co-construction, including analyses of MOOD and NEGOTIATION, as well as synoptic and dynamic APPRAISAL analyses. Individual text analyses also interrogated LOGICO-SEMANTIC RELATIONS as construed with and by tags and blog posts.
It was found blog authors deployed the linguistic resources of NEGOTIATION and APPRAISAL to solicit co-authorship from reader-commenters and collaboratively achieve the social goals of the post-and-comments as text. This included bonding over the topic of posts, building solidarity between the author and readers, co-construing the evaluative stance of the author and collaborating on the text as an instance of genre. The study showed how authors used tags to create complex textual and ideational, logico-semantic interconnections across blogs. Additionally, tagging impacted on instantiation of genre, owing to the realization of simultaneous logical relations afforded by tags.
Existing theory was a productive heuristic for understanding blog co-construction. The theoretical notion of a locus of authority was suggested to explain the different levels of authority given to readers as co-authors. Extensions to SFL theory were proposed to expound the techno-semiotic distinctiveness of blogs, including intermodal NEGOTIATION between author and reader-commenters and the impact of reading directionality on logico-semantic relations between posts. Further, the concept of modal hybridity was put forward to account for the realisation of the blog as both written and spoken-like dialogic text.
Implications are drawn for ways in which educators and curriculum developers may take into consideration the techno-semiotic, co-constructive affordances of blogs in learning and teaching in the early years…

▼ In the 21st century, in the computer age, many of our basic habits have changed. This can be most easily noticed on the youth who are the first to pick up the cutting edge technologies. Nowadays they spend most of their time in front of their computers, hanging on
social networking sites such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and the list goes on. More and more of the new generation when they want to buy something, at first they do a web search find any related information on the product then read the reviews and comments of the owners on blogs and only then they decide to choose a particular brand (Turner 48).
With the change of consumer habits, companies try to catch up with these new methods and try to engage their potential buyers by exploiting the possibilities of online
social networks. This new wave of product sales is called
social media marketing. The purpose of this thesis is to have an overview on this new online marketing phenomenon, analyze its effectiveness and finally conclude on where these methods will evolve in the future.

▼ Recently, there is an increasing concern of social media use. In particular, social media use may be related to empathy decline and mental health issues, even may be linked to some social problems (Konrath, 2010). The present study aims to investigate whether and how social media use would be associated with empathy. We collected totally 150 participants (6 – 78 years) through online survey. The results showed that time spending on social media has no significant relationship with empathy. However, preference for social media interaction was found to be positively related to online cognitive empathy. In addition, age has significant negative relationship with both online and offline empathy.

▼ This study investigates the successful implementation of
social media by small and medium-sized New Zealand businesses. The reasons for selecting
social media as the focal innovation were twofold. Firstly, it is vital that marketers embrace it.
Social media has revolutionised the way in which marketers can communicate and promote to customers. Fundamentally, message control has passed from the marketer to the customer.
Secondly, it provided an opportunity to explore innovation implementation from a business perspective early on in its diffusion cycle. Although businesses were only recently invited to join
social media platforms, it was anticipated that many businesses would have adopted it within the last three years.
This research contributes to the sparse literature on
social media. It also contributes to the growing body of literature on innovation implementation, businesses as the unit of analysis, and research which uses implementation success as its outcome variable. Additionally, it contributes to the body of research for businesses that have less than 20 employees, defined as either small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or micro-organisations, depending on the country.
The objectives of this research were to identify which characteristics were most significant in influencing the successful implementation of
social media and to propose a conceptual model. Due to the scarcity of literature on
social media, constructs and measures were developed from other disciplines and innovation types. Research was grounded in innovation and implementation theory. The Organisational Innovativeness theory and the Variance theory (particularly the Technology-Organisation-Environment or TOE framework) were found to be of particular relevance. Marketing theory was also referred to, with the outcomes being marketing-based measures.
The research was conducted in three steps. Firstly, in the pre-test phase senior managers from the New Zealand Retailers Association and academics provided feedback on the questionnaire. The Association then sent a pilot survey to their members, generating 53 usable responses. Secondly, the main survey was distributed via Facebook to businesses operating in that medium. Following analysis, the third phase involved interviews which further explored themes identified from the quantitative stage.
Theoretical, methodological and managerial contributions were made from the research. Theoretical contributions included the development and empirical testing of a conceptual model for successful
social media implementation. Significant predictor variables identified included complexity, a clear strategy, resources, access to training and education, and competition. These were measured by a number of dependent variables including use, overall management satisfaction and newly-developed scales for net benefits (including increased profit and increased brand loyalty).
Methodological contributions included the timing of the survey. As
social media has only been implemented relatively recently, information was…

▼ Location-based real-time dating (LBRTD) apps have become an increasingly common way for people to broaden their
social network and meet others for the purposes of dating, friendship, and more. This investigation focused on Tinder, presently the most widely-used LBRTD app. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with twenty-three current and recent Tinder users to gain insight into their self-presentation strategies and impressions of others on the app. The questions concentrated around four major topic areas: use of photos, use of bio text, perception of others, and real or imagined deception. A grounded theory approach was used to frame the data. From this, four major themes were derived that characterized Tinder as a unique
social space. First, Tinder users maintained an idealistic yet authentic portrayal of the self. Secondly, self-presentation was governed by gender norms, both societal and unique to the app. Thirdly, while these strategies were deliberately planned, they were often structured to appear nonchalant. Finally, concerns about "catfishing" and the authenticity of others shaped both how users presented themselves and the others they chose to interact with on the app. The study concluded by suggesting multiple prospective research directions into this intriguing and under-researched field.

▼ Social media services like Facebook mark the continued domestication of surveillance technology. Facebook has been remarkably successful at establishing a presence within a variety of social settings, including the interpersonal sphere, the academic sector, and the marketplace. As a platform shared by these spheres, Facebook distributes personal information beyond intended contexts. This research will develop a sociological understanding of individual, institutional, and aggregate surveillance through social networking sites. A series of semi-structured face-to-face interviews with students, university administrators and business employees provides a detailed understanding of surveillance practices on Facebook. Three kinds of surveillance are considered. First, lateral – or peer-to-peer – surveillance refers to interpersonal scrutiny between individuals. Second, institutional surveillance is the scrutiny of key populations by universities and other institutions. Third, aggregated surveillance is used primarily by businesses to study relevant markets. I propose that mutual augmentation exists between individual, institutional, and aggregate forms of surveillance on social media. These three models are situated within the same informational platform. By sharing not only the same information, but also the same interface used to access that information, formerly discrete surveillance practices feed off one another. New personal details, criteria, and searching techniques become common knowledge. Marketers and institutions now benefit from ‘user-generated value’ when individuals exchange relevant information amongst themselves. Likewise, university-age users have adopted new criteria like ‘employability’ and ‘liability’ to assess their peers as well as themselves.

▼ In this study, we explore a novel approach to measure fine-grained (photo-level) diversity using Instagram. We compare and contrast these new measures of diversity with traditional metrics (i.e. census). We discuss the merits and shortcomings of supplementing traditional census figures with these new measures. Further, we explore the predictive capacity that this new metric has over socio economic outcomes, namely income inequality. We find that using our ne-grained metric for measuring diversity in interactions produces very different results compared to traditional census measures. We also determine that diversity (specifically photo based entropy in age and race) are associated with income inequality and the combined model is significantly (though weakly) predictive of inequality. Neighborhoods that have high scores in racial diversity seem to have a correlation with lower inequality, while neighborhoods that have high scores in age diversity seem to have a correlation with higher inequality. We discuss the possible implications of this work on research in sociology and associated areas and suggest further work based on these findings.

Social Support, Psychosocial Resources And Eating: Using Social Media To Encourage Healthy Eating

▼ Scholars have suggested that
social support provides people with psychosocial resources that help them cope with aversive or challenging stimuli by reducing negative arousal and altering the way they perceive the physical world. These resources are elicited when
social support contacts are physically present, or when people are primed to think about
social support. This research tested the hypothesis that a minimal
social support prime, specifically the communicative act of sending a text message to a friend via
social media, would elicit psychosocial resources to reduce negative arousal elicited by the challenge of healthy eating and in turn help people make healthier eating decisions. In addition, this dissertation explored the question of whether a
social support prime would also counteract the effect of stress on eating, helping people make healthier eating decisions. An initial empirical study was used to explore the hypotheses and research question and demonstrated that a
social media prime for
social support led people to eat less unhealthy food, but this was not the case when a person was stressed. A second study explored the thought processes elicited by the
social media social support prime and stress manipulation from the first study to explain the pattern of eating observed in the first study. This study demonstrated that stress and the
social support prime made thoughts of food more cognitively accessible. These studies contribute to the literature on psychosocial resources and
social support, computer-mediated communication, and stress and eating in several ways. First this research demonstrates that psychosocial resources provided by
social support have the power to impact behavior. Second, this work suggests that a minimal
social media prime has the power to elicit the same psychosocial resources as more intense
social support primes and physically present
social support contacts. Third, this work marks the first study to explore the thought processes behind the psychosocial resources elicited by
social support. This research also contributes to the CMC literature by demonstrating that people adapt to their communication environment, even in the absence of communication. Finally, this research contributes to the literature on stress and eating by testing a
social support prime as a mechanism for reducing the impact of stress on eating.
