“…A good quality of contents does lead to fulfilling the need for entertainment of users. These habits share parallel with the results of current UGT research, which indicates that users use social media as a means of entertainment [5]. In addition, Table 3 also shows there were only five articles that have been studied on passing time.…”

“…It has turned into a preferred media, and users appear to constantly follow and use it as a one that gratifies more from their use. Prior studies have discussed that most of the research are focused on the motives behind the general use of social media depending on the needs of the individual [3]- [5]. In addition, users will experience specific gratifications and associate specific possibilities or desires when they are using the social media features such as sharing of images [6], [7].…”

“…Uses and Gratification Theory (UGT) is the theory behind this research which is on motives of using social media. UGT has been an effective theory for the investigation of social media problems since it is concerned with the intentions of individuals in interacting with one another while using the media [5]. Through UGT, researchers are able to identify the different motives of social media usage that will provide a deeper understanding of the behaviour and impact of different users [13].…”

Understanding why people use social media provides an insight into the nature of behaviours in social networking where sharing images or photos and like other users’ posts are some preferred social media user’s behaviours. Theory of Uses and Gratifications posits that the audience actively chooses a type of media that suits their needs. Motivations are explained by the questions of why users use social media and what gratifications they derive from their use, and whether they prefer to use images rather than texts or even videos. Prior studies found that there are distinctly different gratifications resulting from the use of images in social media. This research paper hereby explores a thematic review of the top journals regarding the motives of image use in social media from the year 2017 to 2020. The strategy of the research was to investigate through a comprehensive number of review articles on the images used in social media and the result was then analysed. From the literature, the findings of the code-to-document report have highlighted several research patterns or themes in the motives of image use in social media. The results benefit the future direction of later research and narrow the gap between research solutions on image use in social media in the context of gratifications.

Images for social media are an essential component of any blog or social media post. As we now live in the age of the 'camera in everyone's pocket', a new dynamic era of image creation and content has emerged. However, people use media due to specific motives or gratifications that lead to their satisfaction of social media use. This research study utilized uses and gratification theory (UGT), a sociology theory related to the motives of people using the media. The UGT factors include enjoyment, entertainment, social influence, social interaction, and information sharing. There were 441 data that were collected and analysed. IBM SPSS Statistics 20 and Smart PLS 3.3.3 were used for the data analysis. Result showed that information sharing was the most influencing factors on users’ satisfaction to use image in social media. Therefore, the factors identified in these studies could be used as a guideline and references in future study related to social media awareness and implications.

“…According to Kefi and Perez (2018), hackers can easily carry out their malicious activities using information from SNSs. Such activities result in compromised personal accounts that eventually lead to data security leakages at the organizational level (Ajis and Salleh, 2020). For instance, LinkedIn had its customer's data leaked by hackers who used information from SNSs and further aggregated it from different websites in 2017 and 2021 (Segura, 2017; “LinkedIn Data Breach - 500M Records Leaked and Being Sold,” 2021).…”

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the cybersecurity awareness manifested as protective behavior to explain self-disclosure in social networking sites. The disclosure of information about oneself is associated with benefits as well as privacy risks. The individuals self-disclose to gain social capital and display protective behaviors to evade privacy risks by careful cost-benefit calculation of disclosing information.Design/methodology/approachThis study explores the role of cyber protection behavior in predicting self-disclosure along with demographics (age and gender) and digital divide (frequency of Internet access) variables by conducting a face-to-face survey. Data were collected from 284 participants. The model is validated by using multiple hierarchal regression along with the artificial intelligence approach.FindingsThe results revealed that cyber protection behavior significantly explains the variance in self-disclosure behavior. The complementary use of five machine learning (ML) algorithms further validated the model. The ML algorithms predicted self-disclosure with an area under the curve of 0.74 and an F1 measure of 0.70.Practical implicationsThe findings suggest that costs associated with self-disclosure can be mitigated by educating the individuals to heighten their cybersecurity awareness through cybersecurity training programs.Originality/valueThis study uses a hybrid approach to assess the influence of cyber protection behavior on self-disclosure using expectant valence theory (EVT).
