Constructing a multi-theoretical framework for mob modeling
As social media has made us more connected, it has also increased our ability to mobilize groups of people and coordinate events, such as mobs. Understanding the motivation of individuals to join such events and the ability to predict the outcome of these events (success or failure) is complex and requires a robust understanding of social science theories. In this research, we aim to analyze the applicability of five social science theories to ex…
Cheating or Fair Competition? A Structuration Analysis of Social Media Responses to Lia Thomas’ NCAA Swimming Championship
In March 2022, Lia Thomas of the University of Pennsylvania became the first openly transgender woman to win an NCAA swimming championship. Using Giddens’ structuration theory as a theoretical lens, this analysis employs Latent Dirichlet Allocation to examine how tweets about Thomas and transgender athletes contain toxic discourses based on established sports structures of fairness and sex separation of sports
Evaluating collective action theory-based model to simulate mobs
A mob is an event that is organized via social media, email, SMS, or other forms of digital communication technologies in which a group of people (who might have an agenda) get together online or offline to collectively conduct an act and then disperse (quickly or over a long period).

The study also uses a network analysis to examine toxic behaviors and communiti…
