“…Such studies on casual audience engagements with content flows are still relatively rare. Liking, sharing, commenting, and occasional posting are mostly viewed as interruptions of established mass communication models, and empirically studied as content or as data traces left by the users (Møller Hartley et al, 2018). Reviewing a decade of news sharing studies, Kümpel et al (2015) show that the majority of research is using content analysis and surveys, theoretically informed by diffusion of innovation theory, and concepts such as social influence, interactivity, and political participation.…”

In this article, we develop the concept of small acts of engagement (SAOE) in a networked media environment as a conceptual framework to study specific audience practices and as an agenda for research on these practices. We define SAOE, such as liking, sharing, and commenting, as productive audience practices that require little investment and are intentionally more casual than the structural and laborious practices examined as types of produsage and convergence culture. We further elaborate on the interpretive and productive aspects of SAOE, which allow us to reconnect the notions of a participatory culture and a culture of everyday agency. Our central argument is that audience studies’ perspective allows viewing SAOE as practices of everyday audience agency, which, on an aggregate level, have the potential to become powerful acts of resistance.
