Intergroup contact, contact heterogeneity, and cross-group friendship
Video games serve as virtual spaces where members from different social groups encounter each other and interact. This study (N = 3,612) tests intergroup contact theory in the context of a global prosocial mobile game, leveraging unobtrusive in-game behavioral data alongside survey measures. Findings indicate that a higher proportion of interaction with foreign players is related to lower levels of future contact intentions. However, interacting …
Illuminating the relative dominance of awareness and pervasiveness over visibility in organizational ICT affordances
Contemporary discourse on the affordances of organizational information and communication technologies (ICTs) has largely been captivated by the allure of visibility. This article challenges that glare by elucidating the overlooked yet pivotal roles of a set of other organizational ICT affordances. Through a dominance analysis, our findings illuminate that awareness—the capacity of ICTs to link information and actors in an ongoing digital tapestr…
Too much of what? Two-wave panel evidence for selective (de-)sensitization through frequent exposure to different kinds of digital hate
Digital hate has become an inevitable aspect of daily life for social media users, constituting a formidable societal challenge. Despite broad consensus of related harms, researchers have struggled to predict users’ intervening activity and moderation preferences, especially given that they are subject to temporal changes. A two-wave panel survey was conducted to investigate how exposure frequency to incivility, intolerance, and threats is associ…
Social media self-presentation of LGBTQ+ youth in the United States
For those with marginalized identities, social media may offer opportunities for identity exploration and affirmation but may also pose challenges of context collapse, wherein the presence of multiple audiences makes identity-related posting awkward or dangerous. To probe short-term longitudinal patterns, 337 LGBTQ+ 15- to 22-year-olds completed six weekly surveys during Pride Month. As hypothesized, identity exploration was associated with self-…
Toxic positivity intentions
Media users are often overwhelmed with excessive amounts of positivity on social media. While a healthy positive outlook acknowledges both the positive and negative aspects of life, a growing term in popular media referring to toxic positivity suggests users leverage positivity and avoid negativity for personal gain. Employing a two-study, multi-method design, Study 1 is framed within the impression management literature to conceptually and opera…
To Like or Not to Like? An Experimental Study on Relational Closeness, Social Grooming, Reciprocity, and Emotions in Social Media Liking
We conducted a randomized-controlled experiment with 201 participants to investigate the effects of relationship closeness, emotions, and the receipt of Likes on reciprocal Liking behaviors. We found that individuals engaged in interchange-oriented social grooming by giving Likes to close friends regardless of whether they had received Likes from them before. However, when relationship closeness was low, participants mirrored their acquaintances’…
Different platforms, different uses
Two large surveys with adult samples of Americans (N = 1,105; N = 1,035) investigated differences in perceived incivility between seven social media platforms. Perceptions of incivility were targeted, given both their inherent societal relevance and the personalized nature of each user’s platform experience. Utilizing a novel approach, observations per platform were nested within each user, facilitating disentangling user-level from platform-leve…
