“…Trends found in photos as well as locations associated with status updates were found to enrich such predictions, which conforms with the findings of previous research (Kosinski et al, 2013). Shoemaker (2010) argues that patterning pieces of information provided by a user which, when considered separately, might not implicate one's identity, nonetheless purport to provide substantial information about the person in question when taken together; our results similarly showed that when concepts are consistently included in photos uploaded from the time when the profile was created to the most recent shares, many personality dimensions can be predicted; moreover, if the inferences are incorrect, this can cause embarrassment or shame for the affected person. Our results also showed that if photos are mined out of context and aggregated over time, potentially incorrect attributes could be attached to users; this bothered the participants, consequently blurring the temporal boundary of intended disclosure.…”

“…In either case, this single construct cannot adequately explain a user's choice of disclosure genre since both types of information use are governed by different types of privacy concerns and therefore by different attitudes. While behavioral reactions including disclosure are associated with privacy concerns (Min, 2016;Smith, Dinev, & Xu, 2011), different privacy concerns about direct data use and inferred information influence behavioral intentions to different extents. Therefore, our research suggests that secondary use is not a single construct but a composition of direct and inferred constructs.…”

This research investigates user awareness and attitudes toward potential inferences of information posted on social network sites (SNSs). The study reports how user attitudes change after exposure to inferences made based upon information they have disclosed on an SNS, namely, on Facebook. To demonstrate this, two sub-studies involving three focus group sessions were conducted with Facebook users. In the first sub-study, the users received a general introduction to information that can be inferred from posts by using a prototypical privacy-enhancement tool called DataBait. Then, the second sub-study allowed the users to witness the potential inferences of their own Facebook photos and posts by using the DataBait tool. Next, qualitative content analysis was conducted to analyze the results, and these showed that the participants' attitudes toward privacy on SNSs changed from affective to cognitive when they became aware of potential inferences from actual information posted on their own Facebook accounts. The results imply that end users require more cognitive awareness regarding their genres of disclosure and the effect of their disclosures on their privacy. Moreover, as privacy awareness is contextual, there is a need for more research and development of online tools that will allow users to manage and educate themselves.

“…Absolute and relative identity are formal relations grounded in the natures of the entities they involve; identity-as-selfhood seems, rather, to be grounded in an attitude or stance which the user takes towards their avatar. David W. Shoemaker (2010) discusses the strengths and weaknesses of a variety of potential accounts of identity-as-selfhood -however, his starting point assumes some relatively circumscribed and united set of properties or entities from which the self is composed. The key question at hand isn't which of an already defined set of properties or entities do in fact compose the self but rather whether the avatar and the user can enter into such a unity.…”

ABSTRACT:With the continued adoption of learning analytics in higher education institutions, vast volumes of data are generated and "big data" related issues, including privacy, emerge. Privacy is an ill-defined concept and subject to various interpretations and perspectives, including those of philosophers, lawyers, and information systems specialists. This paper provides an overview of privacy and considers the potential contribution contemporary privacy theories can make to learning analytics. Conclusions reflect on the suitability of these theories towards the advancement of learning analytics and future research considers the importance of hearing the student voice in this space.
