  • Use of Social Networks for Academic Purposes: a Case Study
    This is a postprint (final draft post-refereeing) of an article accepted for publication in The Electronic Library 31 (6), 781-791, 2013 Use of social networks for academic purposes: a case study Gemma Nández Biblioteca, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona (Spain) [email protected] Ángel Borrego Facultat de Biblioteconomia i Documentació, Universitat de Barcelona (Spain) [email protected] Introduction Access to scientific information has progressed enormously both qualitatively and quantitatively during the last two decades due to the improvement in discovering tools — alert services, databases, metasearch engines, online catalogues, publisher platforms, and so on — together with the increase in the amount of electronic information available to end users. Extensive research has tracked how electronic publishing is influencing the information- seeking and reading behaviour of scholars. Tenopir et al. (2009) showed that scholars’ use of electronic information has increased substantially over time as academic libraries transit from print to electronic collections. The adoption of electronic information in academic settings has been extremely successful. Despite minor disciplinary differences — more related to the amount of electronic information available in each field than to substantial differences in scholars’ inclination towards the use electronic resources — electronic databases and journals have been rapidly adopted by scholars. Recent research in the United Kingdom (Nicholas et al., 2010) shows that academic journals are central to all academic fields and that the electronic form is the prime means of access. Similarly, in the United States, Niu et al. (2010) report the predominance of the use of electronic methods for searching and accessing scholarly content. Among the most recent developments in the creation and communication of information in electronic format are the social media, a term that refers to a set of web technologies that allow the creation and exchange of user-generated content.

  • Why Do Academics Use Academic Social Networking Sites?
    International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning Volume 18, Number 1 February – 2017 Why Do Academics Use Academic Social Networking Sites? Hagit Meishar-Tal1 and Efrat Pieterse2 1Holon institute of Technology (HIT), 2Western Galilee College Abstract Academic social-networking sites (ASNS) such as Academia.edu and ResearchGate are becoming very popular among academics. These sites allow uploading academic articles, abstracts, and links to published articles; track demand for published articles, and engage in professional interaction. This study investigates the nature of the use and the perceived utility of the sites for academics. The study employs the Uses and Gratifications theory to analyze the use of ASNS. A questionnaire was sent to all faculty members at three academic institutions. The findings indicate that researchers use ASNS mainly for consumption of information, slightly less for sharing of information, and very scantily for interaction with others. As for the gratifications that motivate users to visit ASNS, four main ones were found: self-promotion and ego-bolstering, acquisition of professional knowledge, belonging to a peer community, and interaction with peers. Keywords: academic social-networking sites, users' motivation, Academia.edu, ResearchGate, uses and gratifications Introduction In the past few years, the Internet has seen the advent of academic social-networking sites (ASNS) such as Academia.edu and ResearchGate. These sites allow users to upload academic articles, abstracts, and links to published articles; track demand for their published articles; and engage in professional interaction, discussions, and exchanges of questions and answers with other users. The sites, used by millions (Van Noorden, 2014), constitute a major addition to scientific media.

  • Research Paper
    Research Facebook Use Among Agricultural Doctoral Students to Promote Agriculture & Research Introduction/Need for Research It is important for doctoral students and future scientists to have a “passion and talent for communication and outreach” instilled in them before graduating (Smith, 2016, p. 185). According to Graybill (2010), it would be in the best interest of agriculturalists to use Facebook when communicating agricultural/scientific information to the public. Social media has now become a first choice for many agricultural producers, crop consultants, and retailers to interact with the public (Campbell, 2017). Beyond those working in agriculture, 86% of 18- 29-year-olds and 80% of 30- to 49-year-olds use social media (Pew Research Center, 2017). People in this age group depend on Facebook for information much more so than television, radio, and newspapers (Shearer & Gottfried, 2017). Additionally, millennials are influenced by information posted from their peers to Facebook (Shearer & Gottfried, 2017). With Facebook having so much influence, it seems fitting that future agricultural scientists and leaders would also use it, and other social media, to interact with the public and promote their research and agriculture. The purpose of this study was to determine how often future agricultural scientists enrolled in [University’s] plant and soil sciences doctoral program use social media to promote information about agriculture and/or science. Conceptual Framework The conceptual framework for this research is based on the Media Dependency Theory. This theory states that the greater the need/dependency on media, “the greater the likelihood that the information supplied will alter various forms of audience cognitions, feelings, and behavior” (Ball-Rokeach & DeFleur, 1976, p.

  • Department of Informatics and Media Media & Communication Studies Two-Year Master's Thesis Early Career Researchers and Ph
    Department of Informatics and Media Media & Communication Studies Two-year Master’s thesis Early career researchers and PhD students from the social sciences use of Social Networking Sites (SNS) for science communication: an affordances approach Student: Alejandra Manco Vega Supervisor: PhD. Cecilia Strand Fall 2017 ABSTRACT This research aims to understand the different practices and strategies early career researchers and PhD students from the social sciences have in Social Networking Sites (SNSs) for science communication in one particular country: Brazil. Following this purpose, the central research question is which are the motives and rationale of the researchers for using social networking sites for science communication. Two sub-questions arise from this general research question: How do practices and strategies relate to the academic system of this country? And How do the traditional science communication practices translate into the use of Social Networking Sites (SNS)? This research is empirically oriented building up on case studies in Brazil. This study makes use of the adaptation that Van Dijck (2013) made of the Actor-Network Theory (ANT) and the review of affordances of social media platforms (Bucher & Helmond, 2016) to apply it to the study of social media as the theoretical approach. The methodological approach of this research is qualitative, using both interviews and netnography as research methods. The primary motivations for using different Social Networking Sites are all related to connectivity: communication with peers, to the public and research subjects, updating themselves about their research issue, dissemination of research, availability of papers, self- branding and participation in interest groups are the most mentioned.
