ABSTRACT

A selfie, as a form of self-presentation, is known to display an “ideal” self. Selfies publicly posted on Instagram were analyzed to see if the size of faces in selfies affects the perceived privacy boundary between selfie takers and viewers, and eventually leads to social media users’ negative evaluation toward selfies. The data showed that close-up selfies were associated with fewer likes received from other users, while full shot selfies received more likes. Meanwhile, influencers with a high number of followers moderated the perception of privacy boundaries. Theoretical and practical implications of these phenomena are also discussed.

太接近喜欢了？：社交媒体影响者如何重塑自拍和 Instagram 用户之间的个人空间

摘要

自拍作为一种自我展示的形式，以展示“理想”的自我而著称。对在 Instagram 上公开发布的自拍进行分析，看看自拍中的人脸大小是否会影响自拍者和观看者之间的感知隐私边界，并最终导致社交媒体用户对自拍的负面评价。数据显示，特写自拍与其他用户的点赞数较少相关，而全幅自拍则获得更多点赞。同时，拥有大量追随者的影响者缓和了对隐私边界的看法。还讨论了这些现象的理论和实践意义。
