摘要

这项研究调查了社交媒体上有趣的科学帖子中嵌入的幽默类型及其对参与度的影响。我们通过对推特和Instagram上这类帖子的信息属性进行内容分析，绘制了它们的版图。然后进行回归分析，以检验不同的幽默类型、交际功能和视觉属性与点赞、转发和评论之间的关系。在推特上，文字游戏和讽刺与帖子的参与度呈正相关，而拟人化幽默与评论的存在呈负相关。在Instagram上，幽默与参与度无关。

Generating Science Buzz: An Examination of Multidimensional Engagement With Humorous Scientific Messages on Twitter and Instagram

This study investigates the types of humor embedded in funny scientific posts on social media and their effects on engagement. We mapped the landscape of such posts on Twitter and Instagram through content analysis of their message attributes. Regression analyses were then conducted to examine how different humor types, communicative functions, and visual attributes were associated with liking, retweeting, and commenting. On Twitter, wordplay and satire were found to be positively related to posts’ engagement levels, while anthropomorphic humor was negatively associated with the presence of comments. On Instagram, humor had no relation to engagement.
