An integrative framework is proposed where media use, political expression, and political cognitions (efficacy and knowledge) play important mediating roles between audience motivations and participation. Structural equation analyses showed support for the integrated model. Guidance and social utility motivations … Show more

“…However, Chan and his colleagues discovered that intensity of microblog use was negative related to the perception that one’s sense of the government is able to reply to requirements of the regular people [ 24 ]. Considering the reality of present China, the Chinese government authorities imposed new Internet censorship measures on the country’s most welcomed mobile instant messaging platforms, those tighter regulations meant to prohibit the posting or reposting of the unauthorized political information and current affairs [ 39 ]. For WeChat users, the government’s performances may exacerbate the tension between it and them, leading citizens to doubt that the motives and responsiveness of the government officials.…”

“…Siguiendo esta corriente, para Deuk Hyun & Kim (2015), el activismo en redes sociales puede contribuir a predecir el comportamiento político de los individuos. En buena medida, la efectividad de estas herramientas depende de la manera en que sean utilizadas y combinadas, de modo que se interrelacionen en los repertorios de movilización (Chen & Chen, 2017). Aunque más allá de la efectividad, también existe evidencia de que los resultados pueden variar a lo largo del tiempo (Boulianne, 2009), en tanto que el empoderamiento tecnológico, no solo se da entre los usuarios, sino, asimismo, en otros actores, como las instituciones o los representantes políticos, entre otros.…”

“…Bunun yanında sosyal medyanın tüketici katılımı için ideal bir ortam oluşturması sebebiyle sosyal medya platformlarında tüketici katılımı üzerine çalışmalar yapılmıştır (Barger vd., 2016;Gummerus vd., 2012;Hollebeek vd., 2014;Bento vd., 2018). Sosyal medyada tüketici katılımı motivasyon faktörleri incelenmiş (Sook Kwon vd., 2014;Chen ve Chan, 2017;Bagozzi ve Dholakia, 2001;Sung vd., 2010;Madupu ve Cooley, 2010;Jin vd., 2017) ve tüketicilerin sosyal medya platformlarında iletişime katılımı altında yatan sebepler belirlenmeye çalışmıştır.…”

“…Kullanıcı tarafından oluşturulan içerikle karakterize edilen ve bireylerin ve grupların, başkaları ile bağlantı kurabilecek kullanıcı profilleri oluşturmalarına izin veren sosyal medya(Chen ve Chan, 2017, s.83), işletmelerin müşterileri ile güçlü ilişkiler kurmalarını sağlayan bir araç olarak pazarlama iletişiminin ayrılmaz bir parçası haline gelmiştir(Mangold ve Faulds, 2009). Bu sebeple araştırmacılar tüketicilerin sosyal medya aracılığıyla işletme ve marka ile iletişime geçmelerinin ardında yatan motivasyon faktörlerini araştırmaya başlamışlardır(Sook Kwon vd., 2014;Chen ve Chan, 2017;Bagozzi ve Dholakia, 2001; Sung vd., 2010;Madupu ve Cooley, 2010; Jin vd., 2017).…”
