  • Interpretation of Social Media Identity in the Era of Contemporary Globalization
    Interpretation of Social Media Identity in the Era of Contemporary Globalization By Laila Hyo-Sun Shin Rohani A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Management Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Laila Rohani, December, 2015 ABSTRACT INTERPRETATION OF SOCIAL MEDIA IDENTITY IN THE ERA OF CONTEMPORARY GLOBALIZATION Laila Rohani Advisor: University of Guelph, 2015 Dr. May Aung The new reality of contemporary globalization and its impact on consumers is an on-going interest to scholars from many disciplines. This study is positioned to take the understanding of this new reality to the context of social media consumers. The primary objective of this research is to explore how consumers create and portray their social media identities in the era of contemporary globalization by reflecting the global social media context as well as their own social and cultural backgrounds. In order to achieve the research objective, this study embraced the globalization conceptual background and the concept of self/others. Specifically, this research explores the social media consumption behaviour (the creation of self and others) of two groups of Facebook (FB) consumers, Canadian FB consumers and Korean FB consumers. Three sub-sets of FB consumption culture: personal identity building culture, social networking culture, and brand engagement culture relevant to Facebook consumption context are examined. This study involves three stages, starting with the preliminary examination of Facebook attributes using quantitative approach. The second stage involves participant observation and content analysis of 100 FB profile pages. The last stage involves in-depth interviews of Canadian and Korean FB users.
