The success of computer-supported social networks depends on the extent to which members will stay and continue participating. Many computer-supported social networks however suffer from the problem of retaining members. Drawing from theories of user satisfaction and information adoption, we develop a model to examine how computer-supported social networks encourage members to continue participating and using the information in the network. The theoretical model is validated through an online survey of 240 users of a Bulletin Board System established by a local university in China. The results reveal that individuals will continue to use the information in a computer-supported social network when they are satisfied with their prior usage, and when they perceive that the information in the network is useful. The results also suggest that individuals’ perceived information usefulness and satisfaction are determined by information quality and source credibility in the context of computer-supported social networks.

We evaluate our methods using a significant number of human assessments about the credibility of items on a recent sample of Twitter postings.

In order to help users cope with the resultant overload of information, news leads are typically accompanied by three cues: (a) the name of the primary source from which the headline and lead were borrowed, (b) the time elapsed since the story broke, and (c) the number of related articles written about this story by other news organizations tracked by the newsbot. This article investigates the psychological significance of these cues by positing that the information scent transmitted by each cue triggers a distinct heuristic (mental shortcut) that tends to influence online users' perceptions of a given news item, with implications for their assessment of the item's relevance to their information needs and interests. A large 2 × 3 × 6 within-subjects online experiment (N = 523) systematically varied two levels of the source credibility cue, three levels of the upload recency cue and six levels of the number-of-related-articles cue in an effort to investigate their effects upon perceived message credibility, newsworthiness, and likelihood of clicking on the news lead. Results showed evidence for source primacy effect, and some indication of a cue-cumulation effect when source credibility is low. Findings are discussed in the context of machine and bandwagon heuristics.", "publicationTitle": "Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology", "publisher": "", "place": "",

communications change and contribute to collective sense-making over time during a crisis. Using B. Dervin's (1983) theory of sense-making applied to crises and communications during crises, we examined 7,184 microblogging communications sent in response to three violent crises that occurred on U.S. college campuses. The analysis of patterns of microblogging communications found that information-sharing behaviors dominated the early response phase of violent crises, and opinion sharing increased over time, peaking in the recovery phase of the crises. The analysis of individual microblogging communications identified various themes in the conversation threads that not only helped individual contributors make sense of the situation but also helped others who followed the conversation.

This means that it is difficult to examine changes in risk perception that are contemporaneous with increases and/or decreases in social or media discussion of the risks associated with a particular risk event. However, the collection of attitude data before, during, and after the increased reporting of the risks of genetically modified food in the United Kingdom (spring 1999) has demonstrated that people's risk perceptions do increase and decrease in line with what might be expected upon examination of the amplification and attenuation mechanisms integral to the framework. Perceptions of benefit, however, appeared to be permanently depressed by negative reporting about genetically modified food. Trust in regulatory institutions with responsibility for protecting the public was not affected. It was concluded that the social amplification of risk framework is a useful framework for beginning to explain the potential impact on risk perceptions of a risk event, particularly if that risk event is presented to the public as a new hazard occurring in a crisis context.", "publicationTitle": "Risk Analysis", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2002", "volume": "22", "issue": "4", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "701–711", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1111/0272-4332.00062", "citationKey": "Frewer2002MediaGeneticallyModified", "url": "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/0272-4332.00062/abstract", "accessDate": "2013-09-02T03:44:20Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1539-6924", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "The Media and Genetically Modified Foods", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "Wiley Online Library", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "Read_Status: New\nRead_Status_Date: 2025-07-10T07:44:40.897Z", "tags": [ { "tag": "Health & Safety" } ], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2013-09-10T01:48:43Z", "dateModified": "2025-07-10T07:44:40Z" } }, { "key": "EK26XAEZ", "version": 31, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 208241, "name": "Social Media Credibility", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/208241/items/EK26XAEZ", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility/items/EK26XAEZ", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 205479, "username": "trisha", "name": "", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/trisha", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Flanagin and Metzger", "parsedDate": "2008", "numChildren": 1 }, "data": { "key": "EK26XAEZ", "version": 31, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "Digital media and youth: Unparalleled opportunity and unprecedented responsibility", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Andrew J.", "lastName": "Flanagin" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Miriam J.", "lastName": "Metzger" } ], "abstractNote": "", "publicationTitle": "Digital media, youth, and credibility", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2008", "volume": "", "issue": "", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "5–27", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "", "citationKey": "Flanagin2008Digitalmediayouth", "url": "http://mitpress2.mit.edu/books/chapters/0262562324chap1.pdf", "accessDate": "2013-09-06T02:42:34Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "Digital media and youth", "language": "", "libraryCatalog": "Google Scholar", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "Read_Status: New\nRead_Status_Date: 2025-07-10T07:44:40.897Z", "tags": [ { "tag": "Scanned" } ], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2013-09-10T01:48:43Z", "dateModified": "2025-07-10T07:44:40Z" } }, { "key": "CGXD6PK3", "version": 31, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 208241, "name": "Social Media Credibility", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/208241/items/CGXD6PK3", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility/items/CGXD6PK3", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 205479, "username": "trisha", "name": "", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/trisha", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Flanagin and Metzger", "parsedDate": "2007-04-01", "numChildren": 2 }, "data": { "key": "CGXD6PK3", "version": 31, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "The role of site features, user attributes, and information verification behaviors on the perceived credibility of web-based information", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Andrew J.", "lastName": "Flanagin" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Miriam J.", "lastName": "Metzger" } ], "abstractNote": "Data from 574 participants were used to assess perceptions of message, site, and sponsor credibility across four genres of websites;

A survey was administered to a randomly selected sample of residents in Austin, Texas, to assess people's attitudes toward these 3 media channels. Contingent factors that might influence news credibility perceptions, such as media use and interpersonal discussion of news, were incorporated into the analysis. Findings suggest that people are generally skeptical of news emanating from all 3 media channels but do rate newspapers with the highest credibility, followed by online news and television news, respectively. Furthermore, opinions about news credibility seem to be correlated across media outlets. The data also show a moderate negative linkage between interpersonal discussion of news and perceptions of media credibility for television news but not for newspapers. When controlling for basic demographics, a positive correlation was found between interpersonal communication and online news credibility. Finally, a marginal association was noted between media use and public perceptions of credibility across all 3 media channels.", "publicationTitle": "Mass Communication and Society", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2001", "volume": "4", "issue": "4", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "381-403", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1207/S15327825MCS0404_4", "citationKey": "Kiousis2001PublicTrustMistrust", "url": "http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1207/S15327825MCS0404_4", "accessDate": "2013-08-26T03:26:41Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1520-5436", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "Public Trust or Mistrust?", "language": "", "libraryCatalog": "Taylor and Francis+NEJM", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "Read_Status: New\nRead_Status_Date: 2025-07-10T07:44:40.734Z", "tags": [], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2013-09-10T01:48:43Z", "dateModified": "2025-07-10T07:44:40Z" } }, { "key": "B23B8IJR", "version": 30, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 208241, "name": "Social Media Credibility", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/208241/items/B23B8IJR", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility/items/B23B8IJR", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 205479, "username": "trisha", "name": "", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/trisha", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Kasperson et al.", "parsedDate": "1988", "numChildren": 2 }, "data": { "key": "B23B8IJR", "version": 30, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "The Social Amplification of Risk: A Conceptual Framework", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Roger E.", "lastName": "Kasperson" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Ortwin", "lastName": "Renn" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Paul", "lastName": "Slovic" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Halina S.", "lastName": "Brown" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Jacque", "lastName": "Emel" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Robert", "lastName": "Goble" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Jeanne X.", "lastName": "Kasperson" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Samuel", "lastName": "Ratick" } ], "abstractNote": "One of the most perplexing problems in risk analysis is why some relatively minor risks or risk events, as assessed by technical experts, often elicit strong public concerns and result in substantial impacts upon society and economy. This article sets forth a conceptual framework that seeks to link systematically the technical assessment of risk with psychological, sociological, and cultural perspectives of risk perception and risk-related behavior. The main thesis is that hazards interact with psychological, social, institutional, and cultural processes in ways that may amplify or attenuate public responses to the risk or risk event. A structural description of the social amplification of risk is now possible. Amplification occurs at two stages: in the transfer of information about the risk, and in the response mechanisms of society. Signals about risk are processed by individual and social amplification stations, including the scientist who communicates the risk assessment, the news media, cultural groups, interpersonal networks, and others. Key steps of amplifications can be identified at each stage. The amplified risk leads to behavioral responses, which, in turn, result in secondary impacts. Models are presented that portray the elements and linkages in the proposed conceptual framework.", "publicationTitle": "Risk Analysis", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "1988", "volume": "8", "issue": "2", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "177–187", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1111/j.1539-6924.1988.tb01168.x", "citationKey": "Kasperson1988SocialAmplificationRisk", "url": "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1539-6924.1988.tb01168.x/abstract", "accessDate": "2013-08-26T03:31:15Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1539-6924", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "The Social Amplification of Risk", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "Wiley Online Library", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "Read_Status: New\nRead_Status_Date: 2025-07-10T07:44:40.734Z", "tags": [ { "tag": "Done" } ], "collections": [], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2013-09-10T01:48:43Z", "dateModified": "2025-07-10T07:44:40Z" } }, { "key": "9FUDQJMG", "version": 30, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 208241, "name": "Social Media Credibility", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/208241/items/9FUDQJMG", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/social_media_credibility/items/9FUDQJMG", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 205479, "username": "trisha", "name": "", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/trisha", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Johnson and Kaye", "parsedDate": "2004-09-01", "numChildren": 2 }, "data": { "key": "9FUDQJMG", "version": 30, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "Wag the Blog: How Reliance on Traditional Media and the Internet Influence Credibility Perceptions of Weblogs Among Blog Users", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Thomas J.", "lastName": "Johnson" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Barbara K.", "lastName": "Kaye" } ], "abstractNote": "This study surveyed Weblog users online to investigate how credible they view blogs as compared to traditional media as well as other online sources.
