Rumours are known to propagate easily through computer-mediated communication channels such as Twitter. Their outbreak is often followed by the spread of 'counter-rumours', which are messages that debunk rumours. The probability of a tweet to be a counter-rumour is referred to as 'tweet veracity' in this paper. Since both rumours and counter-rumours are expected to contain claims of truth, the two might not be easily distinguishable. If Internet users fail to separate rumours from counter-rumours, the latter will not serve its purpose. Hence, this paper investigates the extent to which tweet veracity could be predicted by content as well as contributors' profile. The investigation focuses on the death hoax case of Singapore's first Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew on Twitter. A total of 1,000 tweets (500 rumours + 500 counter-rumours) are analyzed using binomial logistic regression. Results indicate that tweet veracity could be predicted by clarity, proper nouns, visual cues, references to credible sources, as well as contributors' duration of membership, and number of followers. The significance of these findings are highlighted.
众所周知,谣言很容易通过Twitter等以计算机为媒介的沟通渠道传播。它们的爆发往往伴随着“反谣言”的传播,这是揭穿谣言的信息。在本文中,一条推文成为反谣言的概率被称为“推文真实性”。由于谣言和反谣言都被认为包含对事实的声明,这两者可能不容易区分。如果互联网用户不能区分谣言和反谣言,后者将无法达到其目的。因此,本文研究了推文真实性在多大程度上可以通过内容和贡献者的个人资料来预测。调查的重点是新加坡首任总理李光耀在推特上的死亡骗局。使用二项逻辑回归分析了总共1000条推文(500条谣言+ 500条反谣言)。结果表明,推文的真实性可以通过清晰度、专有名词、视觉线索、参考可信来源、贡献者的会员时间和关注者数量来预测。强调了这些发现的重要性。

Social media platforms are espoused as helpful for overcoming geographic isolation for rural people and businesses; connecting them with local, national and global communities. Yet, little research has been conducted to document social media use by rural residents. This paper explores the social media experiences of 62 rural Australians, gathered through focus group and individual interviews. Results reveal the varied ways that rural residents use social media, for personal and work activities. Positive and negative perceptions of social media tools provide detailed insights into rural residents' views. Participants highlighted opportunities to harness the potential of social media to further their business interests, to build social networks and to advocate for issues important to rural people.
社交媒体平台被认为有助于农村人民和企业克服地理隔离;将他们与地方、国家和全球社区联系起来。然而,很少有研究记录农村居民使用社交媒体的情况。本文通过焦点小组和个人访谈的方式,对62名澳大利亚农村人的社交媒体体验进行了探讨。结果显示,农村居民使用社交媒体的方式多种多样,包括个人活动和工作活动。对社交媒体工具的积极和消极看法提供了对农村居民观点的详细见解。与会者强调了利用社会媒体潜力促进其商业利益、建立社会网络和倡导对农村人民重要问题的机会。

Misinformation has found a new natural habitat in the digital age. Thousands of forums, blogs, and alternative news sources amplify inaccurate information to such a degree that it impacts our collective intelligence. Widespread misinformation is troubling, not just because it is wrong, but also because it can persist in the face of attempts to correct it, and thus becomes part of a larger culture of community-based pseudoknowledge (PK). Prior work has focused on the motivations and psychology of those who create and maintain PK but has neglected inspection of the dynamics of collective PK production itself. In this exploratory case study, we illustrate how the active participation of multiple collaborators adapts PK over time through a process we liken to participatory storytelling. We argue that the Internet provides a uniquely well-suited environment for evolving PK that is "more fit", in that it is more engaging, easier to defend, and possibly easier to spread.
在数字时代,错误信息找到了一个新的自然栖息地。成千上万的论坛、博客和其他新闻来源放大了不准确的信息,以至于影响了我们的集体智慧。广泛传播的错误信息令人不安,不仅因为它是错误的,还因为它可以在面对纠正它的尝试时持续存在,从而成为以社区为基础的伪知识(PK)的更大文化的一部分。先前的工作集中在那些创造和维持PK的人的动机和心理上,但忽视了对集体PK生产本身的动态检查。在这个探索性案例研究中,我们说明了多个合作者的积极参与如何通过一个我们比作参与式讲故事的过程随着时间的推移而适应PK。我们认为,互联网为不断发展的PK提供了一个独特的、非常适合的环境,它“更适合”,因为它更吸引人,更容易防御,也可能更容易传播。

Labels and sentiment in social media: On the role of perceived agency in online discussions of the refugee crisis 社交媒体中的标签和情绪:关于感知代理在难民危机在线讨论中的作用
Pub Date : 2017-07-28 DOI: 10.1145/3097286.3097300

By focusing on the recent events in the Middle East, that have pushed many to flee and seek refuge in neighboring countries or in Europe, we investigate dynamics of label use in social media, the emergent patterns of labeling that can cause further disaffection and tension, and the sentiments associated with the different labels. To achieve this, we examine key labels pertaining to the refugee/migrant crisis and their usage in the user comment thread of a highly viewed and informational video of the crisis on YouTube. The use of labels indicate that migration issues are being framed not only through labels characterizing the crisis but also by their describing the individuals themselves. The sentiments associated with these labels depart from what one would normally expect; in particular, negative sentiment is attached to labels that would otherwise be deemed neutral or positive. Interestingly, both positive and negative labels exhibit increased negativity across time. Using topic modeling and sentiment analysis jointly, we discover that the latent topics of the most positive comments show more overlap than those topics of the most negative comments, which are more focused and partitioned. In terms of sentiment, we find that labels indicating some degree of perceived agency or opportunity, such as 'migrant' or 'immigrant', are embedded in less sympathetic comments than those labels indicating a need to escape war-torn regions or persecution (e.g., asylum seeker or refugee). Our study offers valuable insights into the direction of public sentiment and the nature of discussions surrounding this significant societal event, as well as the nature of online opinion sharing.
通过关注最近发生在中东的事件,这些事件促使许多人逃离并在邻国或欧洲寻求庇护,我们研究了社交媒体中标签使用的动态,可能导致进一步不满和紧张的新标签模式,以及与不同标签相关的情绪。为了达到这个目的,我们检视了与难民/移民危机有关的关键标签,以及他们在YouTube上一段高浏览量和资讯性的危机视频的用户评论线中的使用情况。标签的使用表明,移民问题不仅是通过描述危机的标签,而且还通过描述个人本身的标签来界定的。与这些标签相关的情绪与人们通常期望的不同;特别是,负面情绪被贴上了原本被认为是中性或积极的标签。有趣的是,随着时间的推移,积极和消极的标签都表现出越来越多的消极情绪。结合话题建模和情感分析,我们发现最正面评论的潜在话题比最负面评论的潜在话题有更多的重叠,更集中、更分割。在情绪方面,我们发现,与那些表示需要逃离饱受战争蹂躏的地区或迫害的标签(例如,寻求庇护者或难民)相比,表明某种程度的感知能动性或机会的标签,如“移民”或“移民”,嵌入在较少的同情评论中。我们的研究为公众情绪的走向、围绕这一重大社会事件的讨论性质以及在线意见分享的性质提供了有价值的见解。

'My Data, My Bad ...': Young People's Personal Data Understandings and (Counter)Practices “我的数据,我的错……”:青少年对个人资料的理解及(反)做法
Pub Date : 2017-07-28 DOI: 10.1145/3097286.3097338
Luci Pangrazio, N. Selwyn
Large quantities of personal data are now being generated, collated and processed through young people's uses of social media. Third parties increasingly use these data to profile, predict and position the individuals they are associated with. These developments have prompted calls for individuals to adopt more informed and critical stances toward how and why their data is being used -- i.e., to become vigilant 'data citizens'. Against this background, this paper reports on an ongoing project that explores the extent to which social media users are aware of their personal data and its attendant issues and uses. Drawing on participatory design research with four diverse groups of young people (aged 14 to 18 years), this paper investigates the possibilities of making third party (re)uses of personal data openly available in digitized form for young people to access, interpret and use to develop counter-practices and resistant tactics. The results of these interventions -- while only partially successful -- provide valuable insights into the technical, informatic, organizational and social issues surrounding how young people engage with social media, and how academic concerns over data relate to everyday lived experiences of social media use in a digital age.
现在,大量的个人数据正在通过年轻人对社交媒体的使用而产生、整理和处理。第三方越来越多地使用这些数据来分析、预测和定位与他们相关的个人。这些发展促使人们呼吁个人对他们的数据被使用的方式和原因采取更明智和批判性的立场,即成为警惕的“数据公民”。在此背景下,本文报告了一个正在进行的项目,该项目探讨了社交媒体用户对他们的个人数据及其随之而来的问题和用途的了解程度。通过对四个不同群体的年轻人(14至18岁)进行参与式设计研究,本文探讨了以数字化形式公开提供第三方(重新)使用个人数据的可能性,供年轻人访问、解释和使用,以制定反实践和抵抗策略。这些干预措施的结果——虽然只是部分成功——为年轻人如何使用社交媒体提供了有价值的技术、信息、组织和社会问题,以及学术对数据的关注与数字时代社交媒体使用的日常生活体验之间的关系。

Twitter bot surveys: A discrete choice experiment to increase response rates 推特机器人调查:增加回复率的离散选择实验

This paper presents a new methodology---the Twitter bot survey---that bridges the gap between social media research and web surveys. The methodology uses the Twitter APIs to identify a target population and then uses the API to deliver a question in the form of a regular Tweet. We hypothesized that this method would yield high response rates because users are posed a question within the social media platform and are not asked, as is the case with most web surveys, to follow a link away to a third party. To evaluate the response rate and identify the most effective mechanism for increasing it, we conducted a discrete choice experiment that evaluated three factors: question type, the use of an egoistic appeal, and the presence of contextual information. We found that, similar to traditional web surveys, multiple choice questions, egoistic appeals, and contextual information all contributed to higher response rates. Question variants that combined all three yielded a 40.0% response rate, thereby outperforming most other web surveys and demonstrating the promise of this new methodology. The approach can be extended to any other social media platforms where users typically interact with one another. The approach also offers the opportunity to bring together the advantages of social media research using APIs with the richness of information that can be collected from surveys.
本文提出了一种新的方法——推特机器人调查——它弥合了社交媒体研究和网络调查之间的差距。该方法使用Twitter API来识别目标人群,然后使用API以常规Tweet的形式提供问题。我们假设这种方法会产生很高的回复率,因为用户在社交媒体平台上提出一个问题,而不是像大多数网络调查那样,被要求跟随一个链接到第三方。为了评估回复率并确定提高回复率的最有效机制,我们进行了一个离散选择实验,评估了三个因素:问题类型、自我诉求的使用和上下文信息的存在。我们发现,与传统的网络调查类似,选择题、利己主义诉求和上下文信息都有助于提高回复率。将这三个问题结合起来的问题变体的回复率为40.0%,因此优于大多数其他网络调查,并展示了这种新方法的前景。这种方法可以扩展到任何其他社交媒体平台,用户通常在这些平台上相互交流。该方法还提供了将使用api的社交媒体研究的优势与可以从调查中收集的丰富信息结合起来的机会。

Angels and Devils of Digital Social Norm Enforcement: A Theory about Aggressive versus Civilized Online Comments 数字社会规范执行的天使与魔鬼:一个关于攻击性与文明网络评论的理论
Pub Date : 2017-07-28 DOI: 10.1145/3097286.3097304
L. Stahel, K. Rost
We develop a theory that explains when commenters choose to be aggressive versus civilized in social media depending on their personal social norm context. In particular, we enrich traditional social norm theory by introducing the concept of moral legitimacy. This concept suggests that justifications, particularly those that put social norm violators outside of moral boundaries, cause aggression. Using the diversity of 45,982 comments of a real-world online firestorm, our results confirm that social norm contexts matter strongly for online behavior. The developed theory challenges existing speculations about online aggression and helps to develop strategies to encourage enlightened, civilized discourse on the Internet.
我们发展了一种理论,解释了评论者在社交媒体上选择攻击性还是文明,取决于他们个人的社会规范背景。特别是,我们通过引入道德合法性的概念来丰富传统的社会规范理论。这一概念表明,辩解,尤其是那些将违反社会规范的人置于道德界限之外的辩解,会引发攻击。使用真实世界网络风暴的45,982条评论的多样性,我们的结果证实了社会规范背景对在线行为的影响很大。这一成熟的理论挑战了现有的关于网络攻击的猜测,并有助于制定策略来鼓励互联网上开明、文明的话语。

Spiral of Silence 2.0: Political Self-Censorship among Young Facebook Users 沉默的螺旋2.0:年轻Facebook用户的政治自我审查

This study applies the spiral of silence theory to political discourse among digital natives on Facebook. Using structural equation modeling on a survey of 967 Facebook users in Germany under the age of 30, we find that network heterogeneity increases the perception of the opinion climate as adverse, which, in turn leads to self-censorship.

本研究将沉默螺旋理论应用于Facebook上数字原住民的政治话语。利用结构方程模型对德国967名30岁以下的Facebook用户进行调查,我们发现网络异质性增加了对意见气候不利的看法,这反过来又导致了自我审查。此外,政治兴趣和活跃的Facebook使用促进了用户发声的意愿,而对孤立的恐惧和沟通恐惧则降低了用户发声的意愿。我们讨论了这些发现,将它们嵌入到关于印象管理和语境崩溃的话语中,并展示了沉默螺旋理论在社交媒体研究中的有用性。

Despite the recent uptick in academic literature on self-branding across the fields of Internet studies, business/marketing, and media/cultural industries, the ways in which the digital self-brand gets reproduced across a sprawling social media ecology remains comparatively under-theorized. Our paper draws upon in-depth interviews with 42 creative workers---including designers/artists, bloggers/writers, online content creators, and marketers/publicists---to understand how independent professionals present themselves and their work in the digital economy. We show that despite the common refrain of maintaining a "consistent" online persona, creative workers continuously negotiate their self-presentation activities through a logic we term 'platform-specific self-branding'. The platform-specific self-brand, we contend, is based upon the "imagined affordances" [44] of individual platforms and their placement within the larger social media ecology. Such imaginations are constructed through the interplay of: 1) platform features; 2) assumptions about the audience; and 3) the producer's own self-concept. We conclude that creative workers' incitement to incessantly monitor and re-fashion their digital personae in platform-specific ways marks an intensification of the 'always on' laboring subjectivity required to vie for attention in a precarious creative economy.
尽管最近在互联网研究、商业/营销和媒体/文化产业等领域,关于自我品牌的学术文献有所增加,但在庞大的社交媒体生态中,数字自我品牌的复制方式仍然相对缺乏理论。我们的论文深入采访了42位创意工作者,包括设计师/艺术家、博主/作家、在线内容创作者和营销人员/公关人员,以了解独立专业人士如何在数字经济中展示自己和他们的作品。我们表明,尽管保持一个“一致”的在线角色是常见的,但创意工作者不断地通过我们称之为“特定平台的自我品牌”的逻辑来协商他们的自我展示活动。我们认为,特定于平台的自我品牌是基于单个平台的“想象能力”[44]及其在更大的社交媒体生态中的位置。这种想象是通过以下因素的相互作用构建的:1)平台特性;2)对受众的假设;3)生产者自身的自我概念。我们得出的结论是,创意工作者以特定平台的方式不断监控和重新塑造他们的数字人物,标志着在不稳定的创意经济中争夺注意力所需的“永远在线”劳动主体性的强化。
