Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media has revolutionized how individuals, communities, and organizations create, share, and consume information. Similarly, social media offers numerous opportunities as well as enormous social and economic ills for individuals, communities, and organizations. Despite the increase in popularity of social networking sites and related digital media, there are limited data and studies on consumption patterns of the new media by different global communities. Analyzing Global Social Media Consumption is an essential reference book that investigates the current trends, practices, and newly emerging narratives on theoretical and empirical research on all aspects of social media and its global use. Covering topics that include fake news detection, social media addiction, and motivations and impacts of social media use, this book is ideal for big data analysts, media and communications experts, researchers, academicians, and students in media and communications, information systems, and information technology study programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the era of such online spaces as Facebook, Instant Messenger, Live Journal, Blogger, Web Shots, and campus blogs, college students are using these resources and other online sites as a social medium. Inevitably, this medium presents students with ethical decisions about social propriety, self disclosure and acceptable behaviour. Because online social networking sites have proven problematic for college students and for college administrators, this book aims to offer professional guidance to Higher Education administrators and policy makers. Online Social Networking on Campus: Understanding what matters in student culture is a professional guide for Higher Education faculty and Student Affairs administrators, which rigorously examines college students’ use of online social networking sites and how they use these to develop relationships both on and off campus. Most importantly, Online Social Networking on Campus investigates how college students use online sites to explore and makes sense of their identities. Providing information taken from interviews, surveys and focus group data, the book presents an ethnographic view of social networking that will help Student Affairs administrators, Information Technology administrators, and faculty better understand and provide guidance to the "neomillennials" on their campuses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media is reshaping the way college students communicate within their college community, and higher education has recently begun to embrace social media. The most frequently used social networking site is Facebook, and its usage has increased tremendously among college students, impacting the students both positively and negatively. The purpose of this research was to explore the perceptions of community college students regarding the use of social media and social networking sites and the effect of that use on learning, GPA, and graduation as well any differences in perceptions based on students demographic characteristics (i.e., age, gender, class status, race/ethnicity, and living situation). A 15-item survey was used to collect data from 87 students at one rural community college. The study found that most students use social media often, with their most common social media interaction partners being their close friends and family and the least being professors. In addition, 63.2% agreed that social networking sites were an effective tool for e-learning. Most students took a mixture of online and face-to-face classes, preferred Facebook and Instagram, and felt social networking sites had become either less as important or only as important as they were last year. Other results showed that 51% agreed that social networking sites help them get educational materials, 39% agreed that social networking sites have supported their progress to graduate, 37% agreed that social networking sites have positively affected learning, and 32% agreed that social networking sites affected their GPA. The study found that Facebook was preferred by students who were 25 and older, Caucasian, and/or living with their spouse. Students who lived with parents used Instagram more than Facebook, and students who lived with their children took more online courses.

Download or read book The Relationship Between College Students' Use of Social Networking Sites and Their Sense of Belonging written by Laura O. Walz and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sense of belonging is an important outcome of participation in a social network that has been shown to be correlated with several indicators of psychological well-being (Hagerty, Williams, Coyne, & Early, 1996). Sense of belonging encompasses two dimensions: fit and valued involvement (Hagerty, Lynch-Sauer, Patusky, Bouwsema, & Collier, 1992). These dimensions have been shown to be important to the well being of a variety of populations, particularly college students (Hagerty et al., 1992). While several studies have demonstrated the relationship between an individual's participation in general forms of social networks (i.e., face-to-face interactions with members of one's social network) and their sense of belonging, few studies have examined whether individuals can achieve a greater sense of belonging through the use of computer-mediated forms of social networking, such as social networking websites. Because college students make up a large percentage of social networking site users, and because sense of belonging has been shown to be especially important to college students at their stage of development, the present study examined the relationship between college students' use of social networking sites and their sense of belonging. To explore this relationship, 141 undergraduate students at the University of Hartford in West Hartford, Connecticut, completed self-report questionnaires regarding their participation in face-to-face interactions with friends, internet use, social networking site use, and their sense of belonging. According to the results, nearly all students (98.6%) reported having a Facebook account, and 93.6% of students ranked Facebook as their favorite social networking site. Results also revealed that students' sense of belonging was positively correlated with both the number of hours per day in which students reported using social networking sites and with the total number of friends students reported having on social networking sites. Interestingly, the relationship between number of friends on social networking sites and sense of belonging was found to be stronger for male students than for female students. These findings suggest that the use of social networking sites may benefit college students by increasing their sense of belonging. Most importantly, this study contributes to the small, but growing, research regarding participation in social networking sites.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the phenomenon of social networking site use, its influence on online compulsive buying behavior, and Internet Addiction within the US college student population. Social networking site use has become widespread in today’s society, especially among college students. Related to the prevalence of social networking site use, the concepts of online compulsive buying and Internet Addiction are evident. Online compulsive buying behavior and Internet Addiction have been heralded as causing harm to individuals, families, and the larger community. Focusing on St. Thomas University, this study sought to determine the prevalence of social networking site use, the occurrence of online compulsive buying and Internet Addiction, as well as the relationships among the use of social networking sites, online compulsive behavior and Internet Addiction.A mixed methods approach, including statistical analyses, analyses exploring themes, and patterns amongst variables was applied to the data to address the research questions of this study. The findings of this study revealed that, of the students surveyed, about one third were high social networking site users; however, there were low overall occurrences of online compulsive buying and Internet Addiction. Within this group of students, the results showed that there is no statistically significant relationship between social networking site use and online compulsive buying, social networking site use and Internet Addiction, as well as no statistically significant relationship between online compulsive buying and Internet Addiction.Although the findings of this study are limited to the St. Thomas University student population, they have implications for social networking site users, both individual and institutional, marketing practitioners, psychologists, and researchers. This study identified that students at St. Thomas University may be unique in their use of social networking sites, and this presents new opportunities and challenges for marketers and universities’ communications specialists. In addition, the study seemed to suggest that students with certain levels of education might be more at risk for online compulsive buying and Internet Addiction, thus providing future research opportunities for psychologists and academia. Overall, the growing use of social networking sites globally dictates that further study of this phenomenon continue to be explored.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines issues and implications of digital and social media marketing for emerging markets. These markets necessitate substantial adaptations of developed theories and approaches employed in the Western world. The book investigates problems specific to emerging markets, while identifying new theoretical constructs and practical applications of digital marketing. It addresses topics such as electronic word of mouth (eWOM), demographic differences in digital marketing, mobile marketing, search engine advertising, among others. A radical increase in both temporal and geographical reach is empowering consumers to exert influence on brands, products, and services. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and digital media are having a significant impact on the way people communicate and fulfil their socio-economic, emotional and material needs. These technologies are also being harnessed by businesses for various purposes including distribution and selling of goods, retailing of consumer services, customer relationship management, and influencing consumer behaviour by employing digital marketing practices. This book considers this, as it examines the practice and research related to digital and social media marketing.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the value of obtaining a college degree, it is the responsibility of educational administrators and faculty to understand what contributes to or detracts from student success in college. Researchers have shown a strong relationship between students' level of integration with the institutions and persistence to graduation. One factor that fosters engagement is strong peer-to-peer interaction. However, the extant literature largely looked at peer interactions in a face-to-face environment, but many students have moved to interacting more and more with peers in a virtual environment through online social networking sites. This cross-sectional study examinedc the effect that the social networking site Facebook had on college students' peer integration. Returning second year students completed an online survey asking demographic, Facebook use, and perceptions of peer integration questions. Results indicated an overwhelming majority of students use Facebook on a daily basis. Facebook as a whole had a moderate, positive effect on students' reported sense of peer integration. Evaluating separate networks individually resulted in much stronger relationships. Interacting with college friends on Facebook had a strong, positive effect on students' reported integration, whereas interacting with high school friends on Facebook had a strong, negative effect. These results assert the strong influence that membership in systems play in the college environment, a concept reinforced in a great deal of the persistence literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internet Studies has been one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding interdisciplinary fields to emerge over the last decade. The Oxford Handbook of Internet Studies has been designed to provide a valuable resource for academics and students in this area, bringing together leading scholarly perspectives on how the Internet has been studied and how the research agenda should be pursued in the future. The Handbook aims to focus on Internet Studies as an emerging field, each chapter seeking to provide a synthesis and critical assessment of the research in a particular area. Topics covered include social perspectives on the technology of the Internet, its role in everyday life and work, implications for communication, power, and influence, and the governance and regulation of the Internet. The Handbook is a landmark in this new interdisciplinary field, not only helping to strengthen research on the key questions, but also shape research, policy, and practice across many disciplines that are finding the Internet and its political, economic, cultural, and other societal implications increasingly central to their own key areas of inquiry.
