“…Therefore, schools as a platform to practice good habits for students under the guidance of teachers should properly give opportunities to students so that students do not feel compelled to possess or act with ethical behavior (Milliren & Messer, 2009). The same thing was stated by Wukich (2016) that infrastructure such as schools will form a good community network because of the interaction or good communication between individuals with character to work together. Thus, through school, a superior generation with good character can be created.…”

The teaching and learning in Indonesian elementary schools focus both on students' concept mastery and character development. Teachers are encouraged to implement a learning model that integrates character values and yet promote learning interest. This study was aimed at investigating the mathematics learning interest of grade three elementary school students through the integration of thematic learning with character education, referred to as the character-integrated thematic learning model. Using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design, this study involved 70 students and employed a questionnaire to obtain data, which were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. Descriptively, the average scores of students' learning interest before and after the implementation of the character-integrated thematic learning model are respectively 117.54 and 140.69 with the gain index of 0.44 in the fair category. While score obtained for thematic learning model are 116.11 and 120.23 with the gain index of 0.07 in the low category. The results of the statistical inference analysis using the independent sample t-test were obtained t-count of 4.98 > t-table of 1,667. This indicates that there has been a significant increase in students' learning interest scores with the implementation of character-integrated thematic learning model. Thus, this learning model can be applied to pay attention to the development of student's character which has an impact on increasing student's learning interest.

“…The data for the independent variables were also organized in square matrices. Wukich et al (2017) applied this method with regard to Twitter to examine the factors that influenced whether disaster response organizations followed one another's accounts. Two types of independent variables were applied within this model: (1) homophily effects and (2) main effects.…”

Politicians interact with each other in polarized and partisan ways when they correspond on social media. Meanwhile, local governments share more substantive information about their service delivery efforts. Mayors operate in both spaces simultaneously (i.e., politics and administration), yet little has been reported about how they balance these positions online. This article examines (1) the extent to which mayors who govern the 100 largest U.S. cities form ties with each other, (2) the messages they create, and (3) the factors that influence their associations. Content analysis identifies common message types, including favorable presentation, symbolic acts, and political positioning statements. Results from quadratic assignment procedure indicate mayors form ties with high-profile counterparts from the same political party who represent larger cities and possess more followers (i.e., more popular accounts). The findings suggest tie formation has less to do with the exchange of best practices—as in policy networks—and more to do with self-promotion and political marketing to constituents at home.

“…More specifically, violation of shared language refers to the cognitive attitude evaluation on sales messages that disobey the shared language in social networks (Cao et al , 2015). According to social capital theory, shared language has been highlighted as the main cognitive driver of individuals' behavior in social networks, such as sharing behavior and knowledge generation (Cao et al , 2015; Wukich et al , 2017). It also improves the efficiency of communication and information exchange in social networks.…”

PurposeDue to customers' extensive avoidance behavior, social commerce may be less successful than anticipated. This study investigates the underlying mechanism and antecedents that influence customers' avoidance of peer-generated advertisements.Design/methodology/approachBased on the general framework of avoidance behavior, we propose a theoretical model for the context of a mobile social network, with tie strength as the user-related factor and violation of shared language, advertisement relevance and information overload as contextual variables. Using survey data collected from 334 customers on WeChat, we empirically examine the research model and hypotheses.FindingsTie strength and advertisement relevance are negatively associated with avoidance behavior, whereas information overload and violation of shared language have significantly positive effects. Furthermore, tie strength weakens the negative relationship between violation of shared language and avoidance behavior but strengthens the positive relationship between advertisement relevance and avoidance behavior.Originality/valueThe findings extend understanding of advertisement avoidance behavior and can guide practitioners' improvement of advertising efficiency in mobile social networks.
