Abstract

Conversation argument theory is used to analyze seven online discussions of colorism, a form of skin tone prejudice. Discussants’ comments (N = 587) expressed ad hominem acts (17%), reasoning activities (59%) and delimitors (e.g., addressed objections, 37%). Unlike general forums confrontation-initiated forums had more ad hominem acts. Posts with compared to posts without ad hominem acts had fewer reasoning activities and delimitors. General colorism forums were the most civil and developed, findings that have implications for designing online forums.
网络论坛中的争论与煽动——以讨论肤色主义为例
对话论证理论被用于分析七个关于肤色歧视的在线讨论,肤色歧视是一种肤色偏见。讨论者的意见(N = 587)表达了人身行为(17%)、推理活动(59%)和界定者(例如,处理了反对意见,37%)。与一般论坛不同,对抗发起的论坛有更多的个人行为。与没有人身行为的帖子相比,有的帖子具有较少的推理活动和分隔符。一般色彩主义论坛是最文明和最发达的,这些发现对设计在线论坛有启示。
