Extending this line of work to public health crisis contexts, this study examines how pro-attitudinal and counter-attitudinal incidental exposures predict individuals’ expressive behaviors on social media and messaging apps (e.g. WhatsApp and LINE), and the subsequent coping outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Analysis of an online survey in Taiwan showed that incidental exposure was related to expressive behaviors on social media and LINE, which in turn predicted coping outcomes, regardless of whether the information affirmed or undermined individuals’ opinions. However, the relationships between pro-attitudinal but not counter-attitudinal incidental exposure and expressive behaviors varied by perceived network homogeneity both on social media and LINE.

This comparative study with six societies (United Kingdom, United States, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Mainland China) adopts a multilevel analysis in investigating the media cultivation effect of television, newspaper, and social media on trust in health experts during the COVID-19 pandemic. It also examines how freedom of speech influences the cultivation effect. The findings suggest cultivation of these media enhances trust in health experts. Interestingly, freedom of speech undermines the cultivation effect of newspapers and social media but boosts the effect of television. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Applying the flow concept and technology fluidity theory, this experiment explored how product and technological factors influenced consumers’ interaction with and evaluation of newsfeed ads on Facebook. Results showed that product type (think vs. feel) but not product involvement level (high vs. low), influenced immersion (a flow dimension) with the ad. While technology fluidity predicted users’ sense of control (a second flow dimension) of the ad, the two flow dimensions were positively related to attitude toward the newsfeed ad.

Findings revealed that activists tended to mobilize media based on colonial history and legitimacy.
