A potential problem, however, is that online health counseling is a highly professional-focused scenario, and excessive use of emojis by physicians is likely to reduce patients' perceptions of their professionalism [63]. Therefore, we further investigated the non-monotonic effect of the impact of emoji production by adding a quadratic form of emoji usage frequency to the model.…”
