摘要

移动即时通讯(MIM)服务已经成为封闭和私有通信模式的数字平台。本研究采用动态网络方法来了解MIM应用程序如何相互组合使用。在2019年3月至2021年3月期间，58款MIM应用的受众重叠网络的结构动态反映了跨平台MIM使用模式的变化。可分时间指数随机图模型的结果表明，受众重叠的形成和持续可以用网络自组织和应用覆盖范围来解释，而不能用应用参与度来解释。当应用水平的混杂因素保持不变时，观察到这些影响。

A dynamic network perspective on the evolution of the use of multiple mobile instant messaging apps

ABSTRACT Mobile instant messaging (MIM) services have emerged as digital platforms for closed and private modes of communication. The present study adopts a dynamic network approach to understanding how MIM apps are used in combination with each other. The changing patterns of cross-platform MIM use are reflected in the structural dynamics of the audience overlap network among 58 MIM apps over March 2019 to March 2021 period. The results of the separable temporal exponential random graph model indicated that the formation and persistence of audience overlap was explained by network self-organization and app reach, but not by app engagement. These effects were observed when app-level confounding factors were held constant.

期刊介绍： Communication Monographs, published in March, June, September & December, reports original, theoretically grounded research dealing with human symbolic exchange across the broad spectrum of interpersonal, group, organizational, cultural and mediated contexts in which such activities occur. The scholarship reflects diverse modes of inquiry and methodologies that bear on the ways in which communication is shaped and functions in human interaction. The journal endeavours to publish the highest quality communication social science manuscripts that are grounded theoretically. The manuscripts aim to expand, qualify or integrate existing theory or additionally advance new theory. The journal is not restricted to particular theoretical or methodological perspectives.
