Previous research on government efforts to address digital inequality has largely focused on improving access to digital infrastructure and literacy. However, there is a severe shortage of research that examines how underserved communities engage with government information on relief measures and policies during crises. This study fills these gaps by drawing insights from three bodies of literature – digital inequality, the situational theory of problem solving, and fear. We investigate how underserved communities, such as low-income individuals, communities of color, and rural populations, interacted with government information about COVID-19 economic relief programs designed to mitigate the adverse effects of crises, and how fear influenced public engagement patterns. We analyzed Facebook posts (<em>N</em> = 28,887) containing links (URLs) to government websites on COVID-19 economic relief programs from 2020 to 2022. Our findings show that posts shared within underserved communities generated higher levels of engagement (shares, comments) compared to those shared in nonunderserved communities. This indicates that underserved communities showed great interest in and participation with government information about relief programs during the pandemic. Notably, engagement significantly decreased when fear was expressed in discussions, and such a pattern was more pronounced in underserved communities than in nonunderserved ones. These results offer valuable insights into the communication dynamics of underserved communities during crises, contributing to a deeper understanding of digital inequality within the policy context.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48257,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics","volume":"95 ","pages":"Article 102209"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142659354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, systematic analysis of this phenomenon is lacking in existing literature, which primarily attributes excessive usage to individual factors. Therefore, drawing on the stimulus-organism-response paradigm, this study designated the platform factor of short-form video services as an environmental stimulus and developed a research model to investigate how features influence users’ negative responses and subsequent coping behaviors. Employing a mixed-method approach, this study discovered that the infinite scrolling feature inherent in the short video services contributes to a perceived loss of self-control among users. This can result in users’ feelings of regret and diminished cognitive engagement and compel them to curtail their time using the video service. The significance of this study is manifold. The study is the first to explore the emerging behavior of “binge-scrolling” comprehensively by employing both qualitative and quantitative methods. Additionally, it underscores the mediating role of “loss of self-control” between service features and users’ negative internal state by extending the stimulus-organism-response model. Furthermore, this study illuminates a paradoxical effect wherein features initially designed to enhance user engagement, such as infinite scroll, may inadvertentely result in decreased usage time. This calls for the necessity of reassessing service feature with a focus on user experience and advocates for the incorporation of platform factors into policies and regulations governing online services. Thereby, this study offers valuable insights for platform developers, policy makers, users, and researchers, ultimately aiming to enhance user well-being in the rapidly evolving landscape of digital media consumption.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48257,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics","volume":"95 ","pages":"Article 102200"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142586423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the Neutral condition, Lighter emojis improved warmth and relationship quality, but reduced competence inferences, unlike Yellow and Darker emojis, suggesting a black sheep effect (in-group strictness). Yellow emojis were assumed to be sent by White individuals.

However, extant findings exhibit inconsistencies and lack a comprehensive, integrated perspective. This study aimed to integrate the relationships between motivations and PSVU while identifying the motivations most likely to contribute to this phenomenon. A total of 33 studies, 106 effect sizes, and 16,233 participants were included for a three-level meta-analysis through literature retrieval and screening, with a primary focus on studies conducted in China. The results indicated a positive correlation between motivation and PSVU. Further analyses revealed distinct relationships between different types of motivation and PSVU. Notably, eight motivations behind PSVU were identified: information engagement, novelty satisfaction, recreation and enjoyment, stress relief, social interaction, escapism, self-compensation, and self-expression and social identity. Among these, escapism exhibited the strongest association with PSVU, followed by self-compensation and stress relief. These findings provide evidence for the U&G theory in the context of short video media and emphasize the role of motivation in the development of PSVU.

An integrated higher-order reflective-formative model was constructed using the Behavioral Reasoning theory as a foundational framework. This model amalgamates the Civic Voluntarism Model, the Administrative Burden Theory, and the Ladder of Citizen Participation Theory. We employed PLS-SEM to analyze the influence of value orientation, attitude, participation, and non-participation reasoning on civic participation intention. Simultaneously, we explored the effects of six lower-order factors—motivation, resource, mobilization, psychological cost, compliance cost, and learning cost—on participation and non-participation reasoning. The study found that value orientation significantly and positively influences both participation reasoning and attitudes. Conversely, value orientation has a significant negative effect on non-participation reasoning. Participation reasoning positively impacts attitudes and the willingness to participate. Non-participation reasoning negatively affects attitudes and the willingness to participate. Motivation plays a crucial role in shaping a citizen’s participation reasoning.

Trust in FRT is hindered by perceived privacy, psychological, and performance risks, while perceived social risks are insignificant. Higher education shows less resistance to FRT due to normalized campus surveillance.
