Abstract

User-generated content about attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most popular health topics on TikTok. Because most creators are lay people, yet they attract a wide audience, concerns have been raised about the accuracy of the information shared. Through critical discourse analysis of #actuallyADHD and #ADHDprobs videos, this study examines the content of these videos as they relate to creators’ ADHD self-disclosure. Analysis showed that platform affordances and performance practices of videos focused on humor and personal experiences rather than educational medical content. I argue that in user-generated ADHD TikTok videos the performance strategies of creators and platform affordances of TikTok indicate these videos function as identity work rather than health information.

"告诉我你有多动症，却不告诉我你有多动症"：TikTok 上的神经分歧身份表现

用户生成的有关注意力缺陷/多动症（ADHD）的内容是 TikTok 上最受欢迎的健康话题之一。由于大多数创作者都是普通人，但却吸引了众多受众，因此人们对所分享信息的准确性产生了担忧。本研究通过对 #actuallyADHD 和 #ADHDprobs 视频的批判性话语分析，研究了这些视频的内容与创作者的 ADHD 自我披露之间的关系。分析表明，视频的平台承受能力和表演实践侧重于幽默和个人经历，而不是教育性的医疗内容。我认为，在用户生成的 ADHD TikTok 视频中，创作者的表演策略和 TikTok 的平台功能表明这些视频是身份作品，而不是健康信息。

期刊介绍： Social Media + Society is an open access, peer-reviewed scholarly journal that focuses on the socio-cultural, political, psychological, historical, economic, legal and policy dimensions of social media in societies past, contemporary and future. We publish interdisciplinary work that draws from the social sciences, humanities and computational social sciences, reaches out to the arts and natural sciences, and we endorse mixed methods and methodologies. The journal is open to a diversity of theoretic paradigms and methodologies. The editorial vision of Social Media + Society draws inspiration from research on social media to outline a field of study poised to reflexively grow as social technologies evolve. We foster the open access of sharing of research on the social properties of media, as they manifest themselves through the uses people make of networked platforms past and present, digital and non. The journal presents a collaborative, open, and shared space, dedicated exclusively to the study of social media and their implications for societies. It facilitates state-of-the-art research on cutting-edge trends and allows scholars to focus and track trends specific to this field of study.
