Online environmental complaints reshape governance priorities within private digital platforms
This study investigates how online public complaints within private digital platforms shape governance priorities in China. It addresses a critical gap in understanding the substantive impact of public participation within e-government systems that are visible only to the reporter and administrators, rather than being accessible to the broader public. We compile a novel dataset combining 153,884 environmental complaints from the Green Hotline (20…
Timely or detailed? The impact of information disclosure on citizen co-production
During public health crisis, effective information disclosure is crucial for the government to guide citizens’ participation in social recovery. In this paper, we focus on the influence of the timeliness and detail of information disclosure on citizens’ co-production behavior. We divide citizens’ co-production behavior into online information concern behavior and offline pandemic compliance with preventive behavior. Adopting a mixed-methods desig…
Histories and Ruptures in Platform Governance
Scholars of platform governance, referring to dynamic relationships between governments, platform companies, and civil society, have often inquired about the new ways that online activity is structured through emerging technologies, norms, and political tensions. At the same time, we recognize a need to historicize these power relations: tracing the continuities, reconfigurations, and above all ruptures among “novelties”. This panel brings togeth…
From pixels to places
With advancements in technology, media have increasingly transitioned to digital platforms, and video games—due to their convenience—have become a popular and engaging medium for delivering information. While previous research has examined the educational and entertainment potential of video games, their influence on individuals’ travel intentions to heritage sites has not been thoroughly explored. This study aims to fill this gap by investigatin…

Social proof or performance pressure? Peer influence on leisure sports adoption among youth – evidence from skateboarding
The globalisation of leisure sports has accelerated through digital media and youth subcultures, yet its adoption in non-Western contexts remains understudied. Besides, prior studies also overlook how different peer influences moderate users’ adoption intention in collectivist settings. Therefore, this study investigates how distinct peer influence groups moderate the socio-psychological drivers of leisure sports adoption among youth in developin…
Borderline Content and Platformised Speech Governance
Content moderation comes with trade-offs and moral dilemmas, particularly for transnational platforms governing borderline content where the boundaries of acceptability are subject to debate. While extensive research has explored the legality and legitimacy of $2 in democratic contexts, few address the complexities of less-than-democratic developing nations. Through socio-legal analysis and controversy mapping of TikTok’s localised moderation in …
Blood and soil
Peeling back acceptance
The Balancing Acts
The governance of online speech is increasingly a battleground shaped by competing social expectations. This study investigates TikTok's content moderation in Indonesia and Pakistan, two countries with vast market potential and delicate social and moral stances. Through document analysis and in-depth interviews with government officials, industry representatives, and civil society experts, it examines how stakeholders navigate normative and pragm…
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 …
Borderline content and platformised speech governance
Content moderation comes with trade‐offs and moral dilemmas, particularly for transnational platforms governing borderline content where the boundaries of acceptability are subject to debate. While extensive research has explored the legality and legitimacy of platformised speech governance in established democracies, few address the complexities of less‐than‐democratic developing nations. Through sociolegal analysis and controversy mapping of Ti…
Peer effect and risk perception on preventive health behavior in a relatively closed environment
Human–AI communication in initial encounters
Artificial intelligence (AI) agency plays an important role in shaping humans’ perceptions and evaluations of AI. This study seeks to conceptually differentiate AI agency from human agency and examine how AI’s agency manifested on source and language dimensions may be associated with humans’ perceptions of AI. A 2 (AI’s source autonomy: autonomous vs human-assisted) × 2 (AI’s language subjectivity: subjective vs objective) × 2 (topics: traveling …
Visual observation or oral communication? The effect of social learning on solar photovoltaic adoption intention in rural China
Social Bots’ Sentiment Engagement in Health Emergencies
During the COVID-19 pandemic, when individuals were confronted with social distancing, social media served as a significant platform for expressing feelings and seeking emotional support. However, a group of automated actors known as social bots have been found to coexist with human users in discussions regarding the coronavirus crisis, which may pose threats to public health. To figure out how these actors distorted public opinion and sentiment …
