摘要

人们对信息的反应可以告诉我们他们对某个话题的态度和感受。在这项研究中,我们调查了人们在大流行的不同时期对Covid-19相关信息的反应。我们创建了一个以色列主要内容提供商的大数据库,然后研究了Facebook上各种新闻的特征及其共享功能。一项定量研究调查了Facebook上的552,733条帖子,并分析了对这些帖子的回应。与新冠肺炎无关的帖子相比,与新冠肺炎相关的帖子吸引了更多的分享和互动,如“悲伤”、“关心”、“愤怒”等。从不同时期收集的信息来看,人们对新冠肺炎相关话题的态度似乎因时期而异。在整个大流行期间,人们对Covid-19信息的反应和参与方式不同。一开始,人们分享更多的信息来帮助他人减少他们的不确定性。当获得更多关于大流行的信息时,人们分享的信息较少,因为不需要。另一方面,随着人们获得更多关于大流行的信息,他们更愿意在帖子上发表评论和表达意见。

The behaviour of consumers and information providers during a pandemic: analysis of information related to Covid-19 and the way consumers in social media reacted to this information
People’s reactions to information can teach us about their attitudes and feelings about a certain topic. In this study, we investigate peoples’ reactions to Covid-19 related information throughout different periods of the pandemic. We created a wide database of the leading content providers in Israel, and then examined the characteristics of the various news items on Facebook and their sharing features. A quantitative study that examined 552,733 posts on Facebook and analysed the responses to those posts. Covid-19 related posts drew more shares and interactions such as ‘sad’, ‘care’, and ‘angry’ in comparison to posts that were not related to Covid-19. When ividing the information collected by different periods, it seems that the attitude toward information about Covid-19 related topics varies according to the period. People reacted and engaged with information regarding Covid-19 differently throughout the pandemic. In the beginning, people shared more information to help others in reducing their uncertainty. When more information about the pandemic was available people shared less information as it was not needed. On the other hand, people felt more comfortable commenting on posts and expressing their opinion as they received more information about the pandemic.
