Uncovering the Missing Pieces: Predictors of Nonresponse in a Mobile Experience Sampling Study on Media Effects Among Youth Soc. Sci. Comput. Rev. (IF 4.1) Pub Date : 2024-02-23 Anne Reinhardt, Sophie Mayen, Claudia Wilhelm
Mobile Experience Sampling (MES) is a promising tool for understanding youth digital media use and its effects. Unfortunately, the method suffers from high levels of missing data. Depending on whether the data is randomly or non-randomly missing, it can have severe effects on the validity of findings. For this reason, we investigated predictors of non-response in an MES study on displacement effects

Likes vs. Loves (and Other Emoji Reactions): Facebook, Women, and the Gender Emoji Gap in US Election Campaigns Soc. Sci. Comput. Rev. (IF 4.1) Pub Date : 2024-01-02 Justin Bonest Phillips
In 2017, Facebook’s news feed algorithm began weighting emoji reactions (e.g., love and angry) as five times more valuable than the like button. Such a change is theoretically intriguing because existing research largely suggests that women tend to use emojis more than men on social media. Within the context of political campaigns, prior work has revealed a host of other “gender gaps,” from documenting
