It Listens to Me So I Feel Well and Connected
Social media has grown to be a large part of our virtual connectedness online. However, with this growth in digital connection, we have also become connected with digital entities that run them (social media). Borrowing from the concept of interpersonal responsiveness, researchers have found that users perceive their algorithm to be responsive to their needs and sensitive to their identity have a greater sense of well-being online and media enjoy…

Virtual reality for intergroup contact
Vicarious virtual intergroup contact
This study explores the influence of vicarious mediated intergroup contact on individuals’ perceptions of in-group and out-group members, with a focus on observing interactions between domestic and international students. In particular, the research examines how observing cooperative VR gameplay and the comparative performance of group members affect domestic students’ attitudes toward both domestic and international groups. Employing a 2 (team g…
What HMC Teaches Us About Authenticity
This paper delves into what the application of authenticity to Human-Machine Communication (HMC) can teach us about authenticity and us as HMC researchers and as a com- munity. Inspired by the 2023 pre-conference “HMC: Authenticity in communicating with machines,” two central questions guide the discussion: How does HMC contribute to our understanding of authentic communication with machines? And how can the concept of authenticity contribute to …
The role of affective and cognitive involvement in the mitigating effects of AI source cues on hostile media bias
Lonely algorithms
This research project addresses the role algorithms play in curating meaningful social connections on social media by examining perceived algorithm responsiveness (PAR) and perceived algorithm insensitivity (PAI) within the framework of the bidirectional model of social internet use and loneliness. In study 1, a cross-sectional survey found that PAR and PAI on Instagram are both associated with loneliness, and that the association for PAR depends…
Family Communication Patterns and Parents’ Intentions to Vaccinate Their Child Against Covid-19
This study explored how family communication patterns relate to parental knowledge about COVID-19, vaccine confidence, and intentions to vaccinate their children. Parents from 4 states (Ohio, New York, Georgia, and Texas; n = 702) completed an online survey in March 2021. Results revealed that conversation orientation was positively associated with both COVID-19 knowledge and overall vaccine confidence, which were both positively associated with …
An Experiment on the Effects of Self-disclosure on Perceived Partner Responsiveness and Intimacy in Zero-Acquaintance Relationships
Self-disclosure and perceived partner responsiveness are the key ingredients in intimacy development. Using the interpersonal process model of intimacy as a theoretical framework, this article proposes that participants’ own self-disclosure affects their perceptions of partner responsiveness, even when the partner’s actual responsiveness is held constant, and that this perceived partner responsiveness increases relational intimacy. Findings from …
A randomized controlled trial of group-based acceptance and commitment therapy for obsessive-compulsive disorder
An Initial Conceptualization of Algorithm Responsiveness
Human-algorithm interaction has emerged as a pressing area in social media research because algorithms curate and govern most communication on social media. In the present study, we focus on the perceptions people have of algorithms as it relates to their identity and goals. Bridging interpersonal communication theory into human-algorithm interactions, we explicate the concepts of perceived algorithm responsiveness (PAR) and perceived algorithm i…
Mediated communication matters during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed our social lives. Stay-at-home orders and physical distancing guidelines have led to restricted face-to-face interactions. The role of communication technologies has become important more than ever. The present study investigated how people use interpersonal (i.e., phone calling, texting, video chatting) and masspersonal media (i.e., Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) for different purposes (i.e., social…

The Impact of Transportation Support on Driving Cessation Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults
The findings suggest that available nonkin transportation support, particularly support from peer friends, plays an important role in driving cessation for older adults living in retirement communities
