“…Full participation in popular culture offers an important opportunity for people to build cultural capital and socially integrate with others in a community (Lee et al 2015;Willekens and Lievens 2014). For youth in particular, cultural literacy involves a wide-variety of transmedia products, encompassing movies; music; novels; video games; and board games.…”

“…Muddling through these confronts, distance learning and e-learning are the best options to meet the needs of higher education by using the learner-centred approach in education (Barbara & Vakili, 2005;Ruiz et al, 2006;Ercan, 2010). In the age of e-learning, social capital is the only medium through which students' psychological well-being is enhanced by supplementing social support in social networking sites (Lee, Chung, & Park, 2016). The role of social support is of prime interest in the digital edge (Xavier & Wesley, 2018).…”

“…The frequency of interaction between two or more people steps in as social support and leads to improved well-being, i.e. the more the students are engaged in using social media to get strong social ties to end up in higher degree of psychological well-being (Lee, Chung, & Park, 2016). A study conducted at Midwestern University for undergraduate students confirmed that there is a positive relationship between perceived social support and psychological well-being (Oh, Ozkaya, & LaRose, 2014).…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between social capital and psychological well-being through perceived social support testing social media usage as a moderator. This study is based on social capital theory, which is centred on human interaction through social support to amplify the psychological well-being. Data was collected from 368 masters' students belonging to five different campuses. Using partial least squares structural equation modelling the results reveal that perceived social support significantly mediates the link between social capital and psychological well-being, and social media usage heightens the relationship between social capital and saws social support when it is used for a social cause. Findings of the study have some practical implications on how to diagnose and prevent factors that influence the feelings of isolation and loneliness in online interactions. The results are useful for digital media users and managers in higher education distance learning institutions since social interaction might indirectly benefit virtual university students' psychological well-being by increasing the perceived social support followed by social capital. Researchers agree that using social media may help to improve students' levels of life quality if educational administrators can develop novel applications that pay close attention to individuals' social and moral support. As such, social media designers could design more entertaining features to efficiently stimulate students and other users to adapt and meet their needs for social interactions. This research has established that a simple social conversation forum app should be launched by any virtual university to bring their students together where they could feel a sense of belonging and connectedness with a slice of social support. Moreover, teachers should also have a separate informal blog where they could communicate with their students each week to overcome the lack of face-to-face interaction. The administration of virtual universities has to increase the number of face-to-face gathering and seminars, i.e. it should be once in a semester rather than once in the entire study program. It will motivate the students by making references and relations with their peers. By spreading this knowledge, the students may get out of the state of isolation that will improve their performance. By demonstrating this in the higher education sector, virtual universities could reduce the service staff more intelligently through AI, and delay in response time (e.g., communication between student-to-student and student-to-teacher) could also be removed efficiently. Applying this model in virtual university settings could bring local and international students to obtain more significant social support, consequently leading to amplified psychological well-being.

“…The studies on online social support have been primarily conducted in the contexts of health and education (e.g., Haythornthwaite et al, 2000;Hrastinski. 2008;Kim et al, 2017;Lee et al, 2016;Wright et al, 2013;Zhang, 2017). Research on online social support in the context of health is quite extensive and these studies show that more and more individuals turn to online technologies for social support (Naslund et al, 2017;Rains and Tsetsi, 2017).…”

The Role of Online Discussion Forums in Newcomers' Labour Market Integration in Canada

This dissertation explores the phenomenon of increased use of online discussion forums by newcomers to Canada to access labour market knowledge. Drawing on extant literature on social support, knowledge exchange, and online technology affordances, I examine the role of online discussion forums in newcomers' labour market integration, through an inductive content analysis of 574 discussion threads. Results of this study suggest that the role of online discussion forums is to provide knowledge resources, in the form of information and advice support, which help newcomers make migration decisions and manage their expectations and preparedness, which in turn has the potential to help newcomers with adjustment and labour market integration in the new country.Lastly, I would like to thank and dedicate this dissertation to my parents for their endless patience, encouragement and optimism.iv
