Quiz announcement: first class during the 6th week.
Quiz materials: Lecture contents + online documents.
I am interested in arguing in online environment. How come people tend to be more violent (if any) in online environment than in off-line one?
Therefore, “online violence” seems a good choice as a search term.
Sage journal returned a 23 research articles on this topic.
- But, the results tend to be more serious (like crime, sexual harassment, etc.) than online arguments.
- Therefore, I changed the term, “online argument”.
- Now the results returns 9 articles, some of which contain the idea of “cyberbullying”.
- “Cyberbullying” resulted in 827 articles. While the results expanded, I began to be more curious about this term. So, I add a search term, “communication theory” to see if there are any attempts to explain online bullying.
- Although there are many articles, the below article seems to be relevant to my interests.
- I combined “cyberbullying” + “theoretical argument” to see if more meaningful result come out. I got 6 articles
- But, the articles do not seem very interesting to me.
- I changed the media to google and searched "social theories about cyberbullying"
- This led me to an site: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/311366266_Relevant_theories_for_cyberbullying_research
- Hence, I searched a term, “cyberbullying in online games”
Also, I used a term, "social theory on online group polarization" in google.
Several theories came up.
- Social Identification Effects in Group Polarization | Request PDF
- Group Polarization in Virtual Communities - IDEALS @ Illinois
- Extreme members and group polarization: Social Influence: Vol 4, No 3
