“…Along with courts, law enforcement agencies and officers engage with social media usage. Upon analyzing 6,825 Facebook posts from large police agencies in the US, researchers found that the agencies used Facebook to network and post about incidents of crime, traffic, ask for information, and build a relationship with the public (Huang et al, 2016). Law enforcement agencies are not limited to only Facebook, as they use different types of social media applications like Twitter as well (Dai et al, 2017).…”

Different areas of the criminal justice system interact with social media, but not much is known about how those incarcerated may be using it. A thematic analysis of "Prison TikTok" videos was conducted in order to gain a better understanding of what those incarcerated are sharing. The most represented themes in the sample are performance, food, prison, and pains of imprisonment. Performance and food demonstrate creativity within the sample, and highlight how those incarcerated may be looking for creative outlets. Prison and pains of imprisonment include the realities of life incarcerated, and contain messaging that those incarcerated may be trying to communicate within the sample.

“…Researchers understand that using images and video clips has advantages over the classical text-based material. Recent papers have pointed out that posts with rich content (eg, images and videos) capture more attention on SNSs [51][52][53], which researchers can leverage to promote their research more effectively. On the other hand, videos often provide a shorter and clearer presentation of information and can employ visual aids to help watchers to learn and understand the research context (CN1).…”

BACKGROUND Health consumers are often targeted for their involvement in health research including randomized controlled trials, focus groups, interviews, and surveys. However, as reported by many studies, recruitment and engagement of consumers in academic research remains challenging. In addition, there is scarce literature describing what consumers look for and want to achieve by participating in research. OBJECTIVE Understanding and responding to the needs of consumers is crucial to the success of health research projects. In this study, we aim to understand consumers’ needs and investigate the opportunities for addressing these needs with Web-based technologies, particularly in the use of Web-based research registers and social networking sites (SNSs). METHODS We undertook a qualitative approach, interviewing both consumer and medical researchers in this study. With the help from an Australian-based organization supporting people with musculoskeletal conditions, we successfully interviewed 23 consumers and 10 researchers. All interviews were transcribed and analyzed with thematic analysis methodology. Data collection was stopped after the data themes reached saturation. RESULTS We found that consumers perceive research as a learning opportunity and, therefore, expect high research transparency and regular updates. They also consider the sources of the information about research projects, the trust between consumers and researchers, and the mobility of consumers before participating in any research. Researchers need to be aware of such needs when designing a campaign for recruitment for their studies. On the other hand, researchers have attempted to establish a rapport with consumer participants, design research for consumers’ needs, and use technologies to reach out to consumers. A systematic approach to integrating a variety of technologies is needed. CONCLUSIONS On the basis of the feedback from both consumers and researchers, we propose 3 future directions to use Web-based technologies for addressing consumers’ needs and engaging with consumers in health research: (1) researchers can make use of consumer registers and Web-based research portals, (2) SNSs and new media should be frequently used as an aid, and (3) new technologies should be adopted to remotely collect data and reduce administrative work for obtaining consumers’ consent.

Cognitive engagement on social media: A study of the effects of visual cueing in educational videos

The popularity of video on social media has been on a steady rise. Yet, given the criticality of engagement in computer-mediated activities, research on engagement with videos on social media is scarce. Motivated by this research gap, we theorize and test the effects of visual cueing on cognitive engagement with videos on social media. We distinguish between voluntary and involuntary visual cues. Textual and visual signals are voluntary visual cues used deliberately to alter behavior. Involuntary visual cues such as color contrast and visual complexity direct people without their awareness. We conceptualize cognitive engagement at two levelsshallow and deep. Our analyses of YouTube videos show that visual and textual signals affect both shallow and deep cognitive engagement. Color contrast contributes to neither shallow nor deep cognitive engagement, and visual complexity boosts only deep cognitive engagement. This study adds to the theoretical understanding of cognitive engagement and visual cueing and substantiates the empirical knowledge on the effects of visual cueing on cognitive engagement with videos. Furthermore, this study is valuable for video designers and developers to optimize video engagement with the appropriate use of visual cueing.
