Individual Retweeting Behavior on Social Networking Sites: A Study on Individual Information Diss_eminating Behavior on Social Networking Sites
by Juan Shi (Author), Kin Keung Lai (Author), Gang Chen (Author)
About this Book
This book explores and analyzes influential predictors and the underlying mechanisms of individual content sharing/retweeting behavior on social networking sites (SNS) from an empirical perspective. Since Individual content sharing/ retweeting behavior expedites information diss_emination, it is a critical mechanism of information diffusion on Twitter.
Individual sharing/retweeting behavior does not appear to happen randomly. So, what factors lead to individual information diss_emination behavior? What are the dominating predictors? How does the recipient make retweeting decisions? How do these influential predictors combine and by what mechanism do they influence an individual’s retweeting decisions? Furthermore, are there any differences in the process of individual retweeting decisions? If so, what causes such differences?
In order to answer these previously unexplored questions and gain a holistic view of individual retweeting behavior, the authors examined people’s retweeting history on Twitter and obtained a real dataset containing more than 60 million Twitter posts. They then employed text mining and natural language processing techniques to extract useful information from social media content, and used va_rious feature selection methods to identify a subset of salient features that have substantial effects on individual retweeting behavior. Lastly, they applied the Elaboration Likelihood Model to build an overarching theoretical framework to reveal the underlying mechanisms of individual retweeting behavior. Given its scope, this book will appeal to researchers interested in investigating information diss_emination on social media, as well as to marketers and administrators who plan to use social networking sites as an important avenue for information diss_emination.
