Previous studies have shown that social media use among participants in the 25 January Egyptian uprising was high and that protesters indicate that social media were important in their decision to join the protests (Tufekci & Wilson, 2012; Wilson & Dunn, 2011). Other studies suggest that the attitudes toward the regime and toward democracy in general prior to the uprising were no different from non-users (Norris, 2012). So far, no direct comparison has been made between protesters and a equivalent group of non-protesters in terms of their social media use. In this paper, we use data that have been gathered by Vote Compass Egypt, an online voting tool, to compare protesters and non-protesters in how important they rate different sources of political information. The results show that participants in the 25 January uprising rely more on Facebook and Twitter to get political information, and less on mass media (radio and TV). The association between protest participation and social media use is mediated by higher optimism about the future of the country, more democratic attitudes and less trust in government. Use of mass media is associated with less protest participation through more trust in government.
Het is hartje zomer. Je hebt vast allerlei leuke uitjes deze periode en misschien nog wel een vakantie in het vooruitzicht. Een ideale periode om flink wat foto’s te schieten dus. Een smartphone maakt leuke plaatjes, maar voor foto’s en films van een echt goede kwaliteit is een compactcamera een veel betere keuze. Wij hebben acht camera’s tot 300 euro doorgelicht.

1. The document discusses audience management on social media and cultural differences.
2. It finds differences in potential audiences between social networks and microblogs - social networks' audiences are mostly friends and family, while microblogs have more distant and diverse ties.
3. There are also mismatches between intended, potential, and empirical audiences on social networks. For example, intended audiences are primarily friends but potential audiences include more distant connections.
4. The study identifies problematic cases of audience management across cultures. For example, Chinese users have issues with strangers and online-only connections reacting, while Dutch and Germans struggle more with family like parents and ex-partners.
This study examined how the medium, type of crisis, and emotions affect public perceptions and reactions to organizational crises. The researchers hypothesized that social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook would elicit more secondary crisis communication but less negative reactions than newspapers. They also expected intentional crises to elicit more negative responses than unintentional "victim" crises. A between-subjects experiment tested these hypotheses using a fictional crisis scenario. The results showed the medium mattered, with newspapers seen as more credible than social media, but the type of crisis did not directly impact responses. However, intentional crises did increase feelings of anger, which influenced perceptions and reactions. The study provided further evidence that the medium and emotions are important contextual factors in crisis communication.
This document discusses using patient-reported outcomes to inform off-label drug prescribing. It provides examples of how data from patient communities like PatientsLikeMe can be analyzed:
1. The document analyzes data on amitriptyline use from PatientsLikeMe. It finds amitriptyline is commonly prescribed off-label for purposes like insomnia, pain, and excess saliva in ALS patients.
2. Side effects and efficacy ratings are compared for on-label vs off-label uses. Off-label uses are rated as more effective, though dry mouth and sleepiness are common side effects.
3. The analysis demonstrates how patient-reported data can provide evidence about off-label drug uses

This document discusses differences between media for interpersonal communication and factors that influence media choice. It covers several theories on how the technological capabilities of different media determine their suitability for different communication tasks and processes. Media with high synchronicity that allow for immediate feedback are well-suited for convergence processes where parties aim to reach a shared understanding, while media with lower synchronicity and capabilities for rehearsal are better for conveyance of new information. The document provides examples of how various media differ in capabilities like transmission speed, symbol sets, and ability to reprocess messages.
This study examined how the design of Facebook brand pages (common bond vs common identity) and the source of photos (brand vs fans) influence customer engagement. The researchers hypothesized that a common bond design would positively impact fan page attitudes but a common identity design would benefit the brand. They also hypothesized that fan photos would help the fan page while brand photos would aid the brand. Through an experiment, they found support for their hypotheses and that brand photos combined with a common identity design best stimulated participation.

Sen Lerman We find that compared with the utilitarian case,readers of negative hedonic product reviews are more likely to attribute the negative opinions expressed, to the reviewer’s internal (or non- product related) reasons; and therefore are less likely to find the negative reviews useful. However, in the utilitarian case, readers’ are more likely to attribute the reviewer’s negative opinions to external (or product related) moti- vations,and therefore find negative reviews more useful than positive reviews on average. Listening to strangers: provider’s response speed, the extent to which the provider’s previous responses within the focal domain have been positively evaluated by others, and the breadth of the provider’s previous responses

Een hoge mate van merkbetrokkenheid zorgt ervoor dat negatieve reviews een minder sterk effect hebben op de attitude van de consument (Ahluwalia et al., 2000). Laagbetrokkenen verwerken de negatieve informatie objectief en zoals eerder al naar voren is gekomen heeft negatieve informatie meer invloed op de vorming van attitudes dan positieve informatie. Hoogbetrokkenen blijken tegenargumenten te formuleren om de negatieve informatie te neutraliseren. Verder benadrukken zij de positieve informatie en eigenschappen van het betreffende product of merk bij de attitude vorming (Ahluwalia et al. 2000; Einwiller, Fedorikhin, Johnson & Kamins, 2006).
