  • Breaking Infectious Disease Stigma

    Open AccessEffie Le Moignan, Jamie Mahoney et al.ARTICLEHuman Behavior and Emerging…2026

    The invisible nature of viruses renders them as having a high degree of fear attached due to the unknowability of infectivity and transmission during a pandemic. Fear and a lack of control which arise in this context can contribute to the emergence of stigma around infected individuals or those exposed. Stigma may exacerbate issues such as social isolation but also has detrimental impact on public health control measures. Individuals may avoid co…

  • Ethical considerations in social media analytics in the context of migration

    Open AccessJamie Mahoney, Kahina Le Louvier et al.ARTICLEResearch Ethics2022

    The ubiquitous use of social platforms across the globe makes them attractive options for investigating social phenomena including migration. However, the use of social media data raises several crucial ethical issues around the areas of informed consent, anonymity and profiling of individuals, which are particularly sensitive when looking at a population such as migrants, which is often considered as ‘vulnerable’. In this paper, we discuss how t…

  • Design research to support ongoingness

    Jayne Wallace, Trevor Duncan et al.ARTICLEBereavement Care2020

    This article details the development of a live design research project working with people who are bereaved, people who are living with dementia and people who are approaching end of life.

  • Researching with Twitter timeline data

    Open AccessPhillip Brooker, Julie Barnett et al.ARTICLEBig Data & Society2018Citada por: 3Referencias: 42

    Increasingly, social media platforms are understood by researchers to be valuable sites of politically-relevant discussions. However, analyses of social media data are typically undertaken by focusing on 'snapshots' of issues using query-keyword search strategies. This paper develops an alternative, less issue-based, mode of analysing Twitter data. It provides a framework for working qualitatively with longitudinally-oriented Twitter data (user-t…

  • Counter-Discourse Activism on Social Media

    Open AccessTom Feltwell, John Vines et al.ARTICLEComputer Supported Cooperative…2017

    In this paper we investigate how online counter-discourse is designed, deployed and orchestrated by activists to challenge dominant narratives around socio-political issues. We focus on activism related to the UK broadcast media's negative portrayal of welfare benefit claimants; portrayals characterised as "poverty porn" by critics. Using critical discourse analysis, we explore two activist campaigns countering the TV programme Benefits Street . …

  • Doing stigma

    Open AccessPhillip Brooker, Julie Barnett et al.ARTICLENew Media & Society2017Citada por: 3Referencias: 18

    Weight stigma results from the mediatisation of ‘obesity’: conceptually, a medicalised problem resulting from personal bodily irresponsibility. We undertake a frame analysis of 1452 comments on a thematically related online news article published via The Guardian, about the status of ‘obesity’ as a disability in European Union (EU) employment law. We identify three themes: (1) weight as a lifestyle choice or disability, (2) weight as an irrespons…

  • Experiences of Loneliness Associated with Being an Informal Caregiver

    Open AccessKonstantina Vasileiou, Julie Barnett et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychology2017Citada por: 29Referencias: 6

    Although providing care to a family member or friend may provide psychological benefits, informal (i.e. unpaid) caregivers also encounter difficulties which may negatively affect their quality of life as well as their mental and physical health. Loneliness is one important challenge that caregivers face, with this psychological state being associated with morbidity and premature mortality. Although previous research has identified loneliness as a…
