  • A Case Study of Quora
    sustainability Article Climate Change Communication in an Online Q&A Community: A Case Study of Quora Hanchen Jiang *, Maoshan Qiang ID , Dongcheng Zhang, Qi Wen, Bingqing Xia and Nan An State Key Laboratory of Hydroscience and Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China; [email protected] (M.Q.); [email protected] (D.Z.); [email protected] (Q.W.); [email protected] (B.X.); [email protected] (N.A.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-188-0130-1146 Received: 3 April 2018; Accepted: 7 May 2018; Published: 10 May 2018 Abstract: An emerging research trend in climate change studies is to use user-generated-data collected from social media to investigate the public opinion and science communication of climate change issues. This study collected data from the social Q&A website Quora to explore the key factors influencing the public preferences in climate change knowledge and opinions. Using web crawler, topic modeling, and count data regression modeling, this study quantitatively analyzed the effects of an answer’s textual and auxiliary features on the number of up-votes received by the answer. Compared with previous studies based on open-ended surveys of citizens, the topic modeling result indicates that Quora users are more likely to talk about the energy, human and societal issues, and scientific research rather than the natural phenomena of climate change. The regression modeling results show that: (i) answers with more emphasis on specific subjects, but not popular knowledge, about climate change can get significantly more up-votes; (ii) answers with more terms of daily dialogue will get significantly fewer up-votes; and (iii) answers written by an author with more followers, with a longer text, with more images, or belonging to a question with more followers, can get significantly more up-votes.

  • Privacy in the Age of Facebook: Discourse, Architecture, Consequences
    Faculty of Humanities Department of Internet Studies Privacy in the Age of Facebook: Discourse, Architecture, Consequences Katherine Sarah Raynes-Goldie This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University January 2012 University Declaration i University Declaration To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Signature: Date: January 31, 2012 Abstract ii Abstract Privacy in the Age of Facebook: Discourse, Architecture, Consequences Katherine Sarah Raynes-Goldie Doctor of Philosophy, Internet Studies Curtin University, Australia Dr. Helen Merrick, Supervisor Dr. Matthew Allen, Co-Supervisor Dr. Philip Moore, Associate Supervisor Most academic and journalistic discussions of privacy on Facebook have centred on users, rather than the company behind the site. The result is an overwhelming focus on the perceived shortcomings of users with respect to irresponsible privacy behav- iours, rather than an examination of the potential role that Facebook Inc. may have in encouraging such behaviours. Aiming to counterbalance this common technological- ly deterministic perspective, this thesis deploys a multi-layered ethnographic ap- proach in service of a deep and nuanced analysis of privacy on Facebook. This ap- proach not only looks at both the users and creators of Facebook, it examines Facebook Inc. in the context of historical, cultural and discursive perspectives. Specifically, this thesis details how the company's privacy policy and design deci- sions are guided not simply by profit, but by a belief system which which encourages "radical transparency" (Kirkpatrick, 2010) and is at odds with conventional under- standings of privacy.
