This global mobilization underscores the evolving dynamics in the modern geopolitical landscape, emphasizing the transformative power of online collective action in fundraising and organizing. This study draws on signaling theory to pinpoint success indicators in crowdfunding for Ukraine projects on GoFundMe. Recognized as an effective explanatory framework, signaling theory is used as it bridges fundraising tactics with donation behavior in crowdfunding contexts. Particularly, the research examines how emotions and semantics contributed to (or hindered) fundraising success through sentiment analysis<span>, topic modeling, and paragraph vectors. Findings revealed that trust showcased in fundraisers’ texts and videos amplified donations. Conversely, expressions of sadness deterred donations. Furthermore, the strategic deployment of an anti-Putin narrative<span> notably enhanced fundraising results, but this strategy was way more likely to be deployed by fundraisers based in the United States. The distinct linguistic patterns of US campaigns were so pronounced that machine learning classifiers could predict the fundraiser’s origin (US vs. non-US) with 82% accuracy based solely on language. Overall, the study sheds light on the importance of emotion regulation and “cheap talk” as functional signaling strategies that facilitate value alignment. It provides new theoretical insights and methodological feasibility of examining how strategic communication affects financial outcomes in crowdfunding.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":48257,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics","volume":"87 ","pages":"Article 102086"},"PeriodicalIF":8.5,"publicationDate":"2023-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138633457","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}

Using OpenAI’s ChatGPT API, we asked ChatGPT (GPT-4) to answer questions about environmental justice issues in 3,108 counties in the contiguous United States. Our findings suggest that ChatGPT provides a general overview of environmental justice issues. Consistent with research, ChatGPT appears to acknowledge the disproportionate distribution of environmental pollutants and toxic materials in low-income communities and those inhabited by people of color. However, our results also highlighted ChatGPT’s shortcomings in detailing specific local environmental justice issues, particularly in disadvantaged (e.g., rural and low-income) counties. For instance, ChatGPT could not provide information on local-specific environmental justice issues for 2,593 of 3,108 counties (83%). The results of the binary logistic regression model revealed that counties with lower population densities, higher percentages of white population, and lower incomes are less likely to receive local-specific responses from the ChatGPT. This could indicate a potential regional disparity in the volume and quality of training data, hinting at geographical biases. Our findings offer insights and implications for educators, researchers, and AI developers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48257,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 102085"},"PeriodicalIF":8.5,"publicationDate":"2023-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138448365","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}

Drawing upon the uses and gratifications theory, social media engagement theory, and social identity theory, we conducted a survey with 565 participants in mainland China. The findings reveal that interactivity-based gratifications significantly influence both preliminary and further levels of engagement, while modality-based gratifications primarily impact preliminary engaging behaviors. Furthermore, user identification acts as a mediating factor in the relationship between affordance-based gratifications and engagement. These results offer valuable empirical evidence for scholars and practitioners to consider technological factors and streamers’ roles while examining user engagement on game live streaming platforms.

Through three experiments, this paper investigates and explores the role of emojis in enhancing chatbot interactions. The results reveal that emojis heighten chatbot's perceived warmth but do not necessarily augment their competence. This warmth promoting effect leads to boosted service satisfaction and is more apparent when chatbots serve hedonic purposes and are pre-programmed rather than highly autonomous. However, the warmth upshot of emojis is not as potent for chatbots as it is for humans. While this study unravels the intricate pathway of how emojis augment service satisfaction, it also extends the dialogue of the Stereotype Content Model (SCM) and propels the new wave of the Computers Are Social Actors (CASA) paradigm.

Despite diverse urban and rural backgrounds, teachers unanimously recognized digital inequalities among their students. Data collection involved semi-structured interviews that explored available technologies, usage patterns, and frequency of implementation; the development of students’ digital literacies skills; and the digital inequalities that may or may not impact students. Analyses reveal inequalities including disparities in device availability and ratio, discrepancies in the types and purposes of online engagement and skill development, and inequalities of digital confidence and empowerment. The findings highlight the prevalence and exacerbation of digital inequalities among students, underscoring the influential role of students' digital capital in shaping their digital experiences and offline outcomes. Moreover, the study reveals that the inequalities faced by teachers can further intensify the digital divide among students. Consequently, concerted efforts are needed to address these inequalities to promote more equitable access to digital resources and opportunities for all students, as well as targeted professional development for educators.
