“…Second, student‐athletes may post inappropriate content out of frustration (Hale, ). This behavior is not limited to student‐athletes; with features like emoji's and hashtags, many people evoke emotion in their social media posts (Vermeulen, Vandebosch & Heierman, ). However, student‐athletes’ emotional content is likely to draw a bigger audience, given their public visibility.…”

“…However, their study suggests that submitting articles related to correcting those myths immediately after exposure to misinformation may reduce belief in them. However, the research by Vermeulen et al (2018) on the social exchange of emotions between adolescents on social networks indicates that updates on Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat are mainly used to share positive emotions, while Twitter and Messenger are used to share negative emotions. The research by Goh et al (2013) analyzed the interaction between users and administrators on clothing brand pages on Facebook, considering the impact of content created by consumers and sellers.…”

Neuromarketing as an Emotional Connection Tool Between Organizations and Audiences in Social Networks. A Theoretical Review

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Currently, there is an important debate on how social networks have affected relations between organizations and their audiences: originally complementary –since organizations had full control over the messages that they sent to users, who were mere consumers of information–, they are now symmetric –since users produce and disseminate information about organizations on a global scale through social media–. Therefore, one of the main concerns of organizations when investing in social networks is to connect with their target audience, to have virality, greater visibility and scope. Likewise, neuromarketing is gaining significant importance when it comes to predicting user behavior through biometric measurements, so it can be an essential tool for developing content that engages organizations and their audiences. The main objective of this work is to conduct a theoretical review of the main scientific research on the effectiveness of neuromarketing as a tool to improve the emotional connection between organizations and users in social networks. Thus, the scientific literature on the object under study available on the Web Of Science has been extensively reviewed. The results of the analysis of the main researches in this field reveal the importance of neuromarketing: some of them agree that the communicative effectiveness between organizations and audiences in social networks depends more on sociology and psychology than on technology itself. Neuromarketing has also allowed to demonstrate the relevance of the so-called social influence in social networks: users tend to imitate the behaviors of others, under the premise that these actions reflect the appropriate procedure. That is, when a user sees that others in their environment comment or share a post, they tend to replicate that action in order to avoid the fear of being the only one who behaves differently.

“…For example, while it is expected that girls will increasingly seek support from friends during the early to middle adolescent period, future studies can also investigate the extent to which adolescents seek support electronically from parents and teachers. Further, recent studies have found that adolescents use digital media to enact a number of other coping strategies in addition to support seeking, for example, distraction (Duvenage et al, 2020) and venting (Vermeulen et al, 2018b). Future research can consider why adolescents choose to employ a wider range of digital coping strategies to manage daily stress.…”

Digital support seeking in adolescent girls: A qualitative study of affordances and limitations

2020

While digital communication is almost universal amongst adolescents, we do not yet know why adolescent girls seek support electronically or how they perceive this support. The prevalence of adolescent girls’ informal digital support seeking was determined by a self-report questionnaire with 186 early and middle adolescent girls (Mage = 13.64 years), drawn from four socioeconomically advantaged schools in Australia. Digital support seeking from friends was extremely common, with 73.66% seeking emotional support and 85.48% seeking academic support. Next, to determine perceptions of digital support seeking, we conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews with a representative subsample of 31 girls (Mage = 13.95 years). Interview data was analysed using inductive thematic analysis. Themes of friendship and emotional self-regulation emerged as perceived benefits. Girls perceived digital support to be poorer in quality than face-to-face support, and were particularly concerned about limitations to privacy and the disclosure of confidential information. Several maladaptive behaviours such as using digital support seeking to conceal or avoid emotion were identified. There was variation in the attitudes of the sample, and four groups of girls with distinct attitudes towards digital emotional support seeking were identified. Implications for supporting adolescents to effectively seek support electronically and face-to-face are discussed.
