摘要

新冠肺炎疫情发生后,世界各地都采取了保持社交距离的措施。这些措施要求用新的互动仪式取代握手等习以为常的社会习俗。根据我们的个人观察,这种学习新互动的集体过程经常导致尴尬的感觉。从这个意义上说,尴尬不仅仅是一种个人情感;它也是一种文化标记,帮助我们理解互动、互动仪式和社会规范是如何构成的。因此,我们的目标是更好地了解人们在COVID-19大流行期间如何看待失败的互动,以及他们如何看待这些尴尬时刻。我们通过观察在大流行的第一波期间社交和新闻媒体如何讨论尴尬来做到这一点。结合推文的主题建模和新闻文章的主题文本分析,我们展示了与COVID-19相关的代表尴尬的主要话题,以及这种尴尬如何与新形式的面对面和中介互动联系起来。此外,我们证明了尴尬的经历通常与身体和情境共同存在的必要性有关,从而产生更强的亲切感、同步性和顺序感。

Handshakes and hashtags: how changing social interactions make us feel awkward
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, social distancing measures were implemented across the globe. These measures demanded replacing taken-for-granted social practices such as shaking hands with new interaction rituals. Based on our personal observations, this collective process of learning new interactions often resulted in feelings of awkwardness. Awkwardness, in this sense, is more than an individual emotion; it is also a cultural marker helping us understand how interactions, interaction rituals and social norms are constituted. Therefore, we aim to obtain a better understanding of both what people perceive as failed interactions during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how they perceive these awkward moments. We do so by looking at how awkwardness is discussed in social and news media during the first wave of the pandemic. Combining a topic modelling of tweets and a thematic text analysis of news articles, we show the main topics representing awkwardness in relation to COVID-19, and how this links to new forms of face-to-face and mediated interactions. Moreover, we demonstrate that experiences of awkwardness often relate to the necessity of bodily and situational co-presence, creating a stronger sense of intimacy, synchronicity and sequency.
