Supporting opinions to fit in: A Spiral of Silence-Theoretic Explanation for Establishing Echo Chambers and Filter Bubbles on Social Media
Purpose Social media communities contain like-minded members who disclose opinions about various topics that are important to them. These communities often function as echo chambers, filter bubbles or separate spaces for users to share conforming opinions and discredit others deliberately. In extreme cases, they build their alternative reality with limited information that can lead to real-world action, as seen in the storming of the capitol. The…

Charisma oder die Macht einer Unterscheidung
Der Beitrag setzt sich kritisch mit einer Schlüsselkategorie der Weber’schen Soziologie auseinander: dem Charisma. Dieser Kategorie war und ist bis heute ein großer kommunikativer Erfolg beschieden, hat also eine breite Rezeption in der internationalen Forschung erfahren. Dieser Umstand bedeutet allerdings nicht, dass Webers Charisma-Begriff keine Kritik erfahren hätte. Ganz im Gegenteil. Fast jeder Weber-Kenner hat auch Kritik an der fraglichen …
Kommunikation mit Gott – ein Gegenstand der Geschichtswissenschaften: Überlegungen eines ‚Profanhistorikers‘
Religious actors converse not merely about God, the saints, or more generally: transcendence, but also with these transcendent entities. Even though this peculiar kind of communication is by no means equally relevant to all religions, it is at least so for medieval Christianity. In numerous contemporary sources, God is described or pictured as a communication partner of human beings. Although the historian must refrain from asking whether this co…
Shocks and Is User Behavior: A taxonomy and future research directions
Purpose Jarring events, be they global crises such as COVID-19 or technological events such as the Cambridge Analytica data incident, have bullwhip effects on billions of people's daily lives. Such “shocks” vary in their characteristics. While some shocks cause, for example, widespread adoption of information systems (IS) as diverse as Netflix and Teams, others lead users to stop using IS, such as Facebook. To offer insights into the multifaceted…
The direct and indirect influence of mindfulness on techno-stressors and job burnout: A quantitative study of white-collar workers
Pnina Arad, Christian Maps of the Holy Land. Images and Meanings. (Cultural Encounters in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, Vol. 28.) Turnhout, Brepols 2020
Article Pnina Arad, Christian Maps of the Holy Land. Images and Meanings. (Cultural Encounters in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, Vol. 28.) Turnhout, Brepols 2020 was published on August 1, 2021 in the journal Historische Zeitschrift (volume 313, issue 1)
Qualitative comparative analysis in the information systems discipline: A literature review and methodological recommendations
Purpose Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) is a promising, powerful method that is increasingly used for IS research. However, the Information Systems (IS) discipline still lacks a shared understanding of how to conduct and report QCA. This paper introduces the fundamental concepts of QCA, summarizes the status quo, and derives recommendations for future research. Design/methodology/approach A descriptive literature review in major IS outlets…
Laziness as an explanation for the privacy paradox: A longitudinal empirical investigation
Purpose “Smart devices think you're “too lazy” to opt out of privacy defaults” was the headline of a recent news report indicating that individuals might be too lazy to stop disclosing their private information and therefore to protect their information privacy. In current privacy research, privacy concerns and self-disclosure are central constructs regarding protecting privacy. One might assume that being concerned about protecting privacy would…
Explaining the link between technostress and technology addiction for social networking sites: A study of distraction as a coping behavior
This paper investigates under what conditions stress from the use of SNS is linked to addiction to the use of the same SNS. Integrating three theoretical strands—the concept of feature‐rich Information Technology (IT), the theory of technology frames, and distraction as a coping behaviour—we theorize two types of coping behaviours in response to stressors experienced from the use of SNS. These are ‐ distraction through use of the same SNS and dis…
Kreuzzug als „Heiliger Krieg“? Der Erste Kreuzzug im Spannungsfeld zwischen Gewalt und Frieden
In diesem Beitrag wird ein kritischer Blick auf einen Gemeinplatz der Kreuzzugsforschung geworfen. Der Kreuzzug gilt einem Großteil der Forschung derzeit als „Heiliger Krieg“ par excellence. Mit dieser Klassifikation wurde dem Phänomen „Kreuzzug“ eine besondere Totalität der Kriegsführung attestiert und zugleich eine besondere Qualität der Gewalt eingeschrieben. Doch bei näherer Betrachtung zeigt sich, dass die Kreuzzugsgeschichte nicht nur durch…
Charisma in Relation: Peter the Hermit and the Ecclesiastic Hierarchy
The Crusades were—and still are—considered as papal wars. However, the phenomenon was also a setting of other authorities, like Peter the Hermit. Drawing on Weber’s sociology of charisma, this article seeks to examine the relationship between the Hermit and Pope Urban ii . While Weber postulates a necessary tension between the charisma of office and genuine charisma, e.g., between priests and prophets, the historical evidence is remarkably differ…
Introduction to the Special Issue on ‘Charisma’
The introduction to the special issue on ‘charisma’ offers a very brief overview of the development of the concept in the social sciences and various critiques and intersecting debates. It casts a close look at Max Weber’s sometimes contradictory use of the concept and the different ways he conceptualized it in his sociology of religion and his sociology of domination. It then examines alternative theoretical approaches to ‘charisma’ that emerge …
The effects of technostress and switching stress on discontinued use of social networking services: A study of Facebook use
Although much research has been performed on the adoption and usage phases of the information systems life cycle, the final phase, termination, has received little attention. This paper focuses on the development of discontinuous usage intentions, i.e. the behavioural intention in the termination phase, in the context of social networking services (SNSs), where it plays an especially crucial role. We argue that users stressed by using SNSs try to…
