User management, a broad science of managing users in the system, deals with the various aspects of authentication. In this thesis, user management in a social network environment has been extensively studied. The focus was the login module. A simple login screen was implemented to manage users in a desktop environment using WAMP server which needs further investigation. Evaluation and comparison were made among two popular SNSs login modules and the test case. The findings revealed the fact that all the major SNS such as Facebook and Twitter use a simple login screen. By the advancement of the authentication, in the coming future many new login modules could be created and implemented which could be the topic for future dissertation.},

  @article{Bollen2011,
  abstract = {Abstract Online social networking communities may exhibit highly complex and adaptive collective behaviors. Since emotions play such an important role in human decision making, how online networks modulate human collective mood states has become a matter of considerable interest. In spite of the increasing societal importance of online social networks, it is unknown whether assortative mixing of psychological states takes place in situations where social ties are mediated solely by online networking services in the absence of physical contact. Here, we show that the general happiness, or subjective well-being (SWB), of Twitter users, as measured from a 6-month record of their individual tweets, is indeed assortative across the Twitter social network. Our results imply that online social networks may be equally subject to the social mechanisms that cause assortative mixing in real social networks and that such assortative mixing takes place at the level of SWB. Given the increasing prevalence of online social networks, their propensity to connect users with similar levels of SWB may be an important factor in how positive and negative sentiments are maintained and spread through human society. Future research may focus on how event-specific mood states can propagate and influence user behavior in "real life."},

The friends who see these events in their News Feed can then respond to these check-ins by liking or commenting on them. These data consisting of the places people go and how their friends react to them are a rich, novel dataset. In this paper we first analyze this dataset to understand the factors that influence where users check in, including previous check-ins, similar- ity to other places, where their friends check in, time of day, and demographics. We show how these factors can be used to build a predictive model of where users will check in next. Then we analyze how users respond to their friends’ check-ins and which factors contribute to users liking or commenting on them. We show how this can be used to improve the ranking of check-in sto- ries, ensuring that users see only the most relevant up- dates from their friends and ensuring that businesses de- rive maximum value from check-ins at their establish- ments. Finally, we construct a model to predict friend- ship based on check-in count and show that co-check- ins has a statistically significant effect on friendship.},

Also, no significant results were produced to support a correlation between social networking site use and a detrimental effect on the perceived quality of a romantic relationship. The issue of interaction was the only topic that yielded significant results, supporting the hypotheses that non-heterosexuals are more likely to network with users with the aim of a sexual encounter than heterosexuals and homosexuals are more likely to meet someone they have met on a social networking site than heterosexuals.},

Academic scholarship of online identity development on Facebook and other Social Networking Sites (SNS) revealed recent research that juxtaposed online identity makeup within communication and psychological frameworks. The expansion of Facebook and its design elements drew academic analyses that questioned the authenticity and fluidity of online identities. In this meta-analysis, three studies were discussed in depth, approximately 50 studies on Facebook identity construction were reviewed, and professional critiques on the Facebook effect were included. Research questions query: the prospect of true identity online; employment of theories by Mead, Walther, Berger, and media experts; existence of the Facebook „share‟ mission; private security in public media; and Facebook‟s reliability in the media arena. Future research suggests a reassessment of online identity and Facebook‟s credibility in the new media space.},

  abstract = {Incorporating faces into mediated discussions is a complex design problem. The face conveys social and personal identity; it reports fleeting changes of emotion and the cumulative effects of often repeated expressions. The face both expresses and betrays: it shows what the person wishes to convey – and much more. We are highly attuned to recognizing and interpreting faces (though these interpretations are very subjective). Incorporating faces into medi- ated environments can be quite desirable: it helps the participants gain a stronger sense of their community and can potentially provide finely nuanced expression. Yet there are significant disadvantages and difficulties. The immediate identify- ing markers revealed by the face, e.g. race, gender, age, are not necessarily the initial information one wants to have of others in an ideal society. And much can be lost in the path from user’s thought to input device to output rendering. This essay discusses key social, cognitive and technical issues involved in incorporat- ing faces in mediated communication.},

  abstract = {Objective: The use of online social networks like Facebook continues to increase rapidly among all age groups and seg- ments of our society, presenting new opportunities for the ex - change of sexual information as well as for potentially unsafe encounters between predators and the vulnerable or young. This study surveyed middle school, high school, and college- age students, as well as sexual offenders, regarding their use of social networking sites in order to provide information to better focus education and prevention efforts from nurses and other health care providers. Methods: Written questionnaires asking about various characteristics of participants’ use of social networking sites were distributed to each group and filled out by 404 middle school students, 2,077 high school students, 1,284 students drawn from five traditional four-year colleges, and 466 adults who had committed either an Internet sexual offense or a hands-on sexual offense (in some cases both). Results: Notable findings emerging from our analysis of the questionnaire responses included the following: offenders and students both frequent social networking sites, although at the time of the study offenders reported that they preferred Myspace and students that they preferred Facebook; nearly two-thirds of the Internet offenders said they’d initiated the to ask questions about the Internet patterns and be- haviors in “normal” populations as well as among In- ternet offenders who had been convicted of crimes related to their online behaviors. We introduced a de- velopmental theme by asking a large number of middle school students, high school students, college students, and adult Internet and non-Internet sexual offenders to complete a questionnaire that contained questions about daily Internet use and risk-taking behaviors. We sought to gather information on students’ and offend- ers’ levels of engagement with social networking sites on the Internet as well as the roles played by Internet use in any would-be or actual in-person victimization. Our goal was to report basic social networking patterns among students and adult offenders as background in formation for health care professionals, especially school nurses, pediatric nurses, psychiatric nurses, fo- rensic nurses, and many others who come in contact with young people. METHODS Data were collected from 2008 through 2009. The self- report questionnaires were designed to capture re- sponses to as many identical or similar questions about social networking and Internet use from the students and adult Internet offenders. All questionnaires were ajn@wolterskluwer.com topic of sex in their first chat session; more than half of the Internet offenders disguised their identity when online; most Internet offenders we surveyed said they preferred commu- nicating with teenage girls rather than teenage boys; high school students’ experience with “sexting” (sharing nude photos of themselves or others on cell phones or online) differed significantly according to their sex; a small number of students are being threatened and assaulted by people they meet online; avatar sites such as Second Life were used both by students and offenders, with both child molesters and Internet offenders expressing interest in Second Life. Conclusions: The use of the Internet presents relatively new and complex issues related to the safety and privacy of adolescents and young adults, and it’s crucial that our under- standing keep pace with these changes. Possible nurse-initiated policy recommendations include designing technologies and educational programs to help in the identification of suspicious online behaviors; strengthening Internet filters and privacy op - tions for protecting students online; and school outreach for students who are harassed, threatened, or assaulted as a con - sequence of meeting someone online.

Thirty-four individuals active on a large online dating site participated in telephone interviews about their online dating experiences and perceptions. Qualitative data analysis suggests that participants attended to small cues online, mediated the tension between impression management pressures and the desire to present an authentic sense of self through tactics such as creating a profile that reflected their "ideal self," and attempted to establish the veracity of their identity claims. This study provides empirical support for Social Information Processing theory in a naturalistic context while offering insight into the complicated way in which "honesty" is enacted online.},

The topic is framed by the context of electronic surveillance. An online survey that was based on questionnaire that consisted of 35 (single and multiple) choice questions, 3 open-ended questions, and 5 interval-scaled questions, was carried out (N = 674). The knowledge that students have in general was assessed with by calculating a surveillance knowledge index, the critical awareness towards surveillance by calculating a surveil- lance critique index. Knowledge about studiVZ as well as information behaviour on the platform were analyzed and related to the surveillance parameters. The results show that public information and discussion about surveillance and social networking platforms is important for activating critical information behaviour. In the case of studiVZ, a change of the terms of use in 2008 that brought about the possibility of targeted personalized advertising, was the subject of public discussions that influenced students’ knowledge and information behaviour.},

  abstract = {This paper deals with online political discussion on social networking sites. Drawing from Habermas’ concept of the public sphere and former adaptations of public sphere theory to Internet research, the study examines to what extent political discussion on social networking sites displays public issue focus as well as deliberative, liberal and communitarian characteristics. The empirical analysis is a case study that scrutinizes two opposing Facebook pages created in the context of the topic ‘Stuttgart 21’ – a construction project that evoked a local civic protest movement in the city of Stuttgart in the south of Germany. Using an ethnographic approach, the study takes into account the architecture, culture and discussion style on the two pages and aims at describing the pages in terms of their degree of reciprocity, contestation, ideological homogeneity, rationality and contextualisation with the offline protest movement. The results show two polarized pages that lack deliberation and dialogue, but feature ideological homophily and identification. The results back the fragmentation theory of Internet audiences, while not maintaining the fear of losing the common ground in society. On the contrary, the study suggests that civic political engagement on social networking sites should be discussed in the context of radical democratic processes. It concludes that the utilization of social networks in order to politically inform, stimulate and mobilise scalable publics is desirable. 2},

The authors’findings provide support for social penetration theory and the social information processing and hyperpersonal perspectives as well as highlight the positive effect of anticipated future face-to-face interaction on online self-disclosure. The authors find that perceived online dating success is predicted by four dimensions of self-disclosure (hon- esty, amount, intent, and valence), although honesty has a negative effect. Furthermore, online dating experience is a strong predictor of perceived success in online dating. Addi- tionally, the authors identify predictors of strategic success versus self-presentation suc- cess. This research extends existing theory on computer-mediated communication, self- disclosure, and relational success to the increasingly important arena of mixed-mode relationships, in which participantsmove from mediated to face-to-face communication.},

After certain of the notions that underlie each of them are made clear, the contrasting positions of these two approaches are reviewed with respect to common issues, including the nature of the self, the place of meanings and subjectivity in analysis, and what are appropriate research methods. These considerations provide the basis for a general interpretation of Goffman' s work, something the sociological literature has lacked. Though Goffman is most often treated as a symbolic interactionist, this paper argues that a better understanding of his work results from reading it as a version of contemporary structuralism. The fundamental ways in which his structuralism is distinct from the cultural (as well as the interactionist) approach also are given.},

  abstract = {The rise in the past five years of social networking websites, including MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter, has had a major impact on the way that today’s young adults communicate. These sites, designed to increase ease of information sharing online and help keep persons connected in ways previously impossible, have become an almost indispensible piece of most college students’ lives. But the ease of use of such sites can cause major concerns as well, as one’s private life can become very non-private, very permanently. This is problematic in a field such as psychology, where professionals must undergo extensive training at both the undergraduate and graduate level and are often interacting with clients that may have a poor understanding of personal boundaries. The current study was designed to assess the level of personal disclosure of both neutral and possibly negative information by a population of undergraduates majoring in psychology. Data on use of Facebook was gathered on close to 600 students, showing large amounts of personal disclosure of potentially sensitive information, such as religious and political views, as well as a significant amount of questionable and unprofessional content. Given the relative ease with which this information could be viewed by future clients, employers, and supervisors, education on how to increase privacy online and what type of content should and should not be placed on social networking sites should be given to all persons early in their college career},

However, little is known about social networking site users in emerging markets. This paper focuses on this gap and begins to address the question: What is the reach of social networking sites in an east-meets-west emerging market? Design: The information presented, herein, is the exploratory phase of an empirical study guided by three objectives that consider user demographics and the constructs of purpose and privacy: (1) to what extent do demographic factors influence the use of social networking sites, (2) to what extent does purpose play a role in use of social networking sites and (3) to what extent is privacy a concern when using social networking sites? Research Implications: Two expert interviews and an extensive literature review support the eleven suggested propositions for the empirical stage to follow. Findings from the interviews acknowledge that little is known about users in the UAE emerging market, thus, creating a need for information relevant to marketers who use the medium to reach consumers and for additional academic research. Originality/Value: The UAE setting provides knowledge about the influence of demographics such as age and nationality as well as including the cultural impact on purpose and privacy. The findings ultimately contribute to understanding users within the wider population of an emerging market which has been a slow-to-close gap in the literature.},

This study is an attempt to examine how cultural contexts shape the use of communication technology by examining the motives for and pat- terns of using social network sites among college students in the US and Korea. The findings of this study suggest that the major motives for using social network sites – seeking friends, social support, entertain- ment, information, and convenience – are similar between the two countries, though the weights placed on these motives are different. Reflecting the unique social nature of the medium, Korean college stu- dents put more weight on obtaining social support from existing social relationships, while American stu- dents place relatively greater emphasis on seeking entertainment. Additionally, American college students’ networks in an online social venue are far larger than their Korean counterparts, which may reflect the cultural difference between the two countries regarding developing and managing social relationships. },

  abstract = {Social media can be seen as a resource for increased interaction between municipal authorities and citizens. However, as authorities attempt usage of social media, practices can become entrenched in traditional regulatory frameworks that emphasize openness and transparency rather than interaction with citizens. Social media usage by authorities tends to touch upon a broad range of regulatory elements, some of which are legal in character and others that we see as embedded in the technologies themselves as well as practices developed in connection with the technologies. In this paper, 26 Swedish social media policies produced by municipalities are analyzed in order to better understand how the conflict between transparency and interaction is dealt with in practical guidelines. We are concerned with how the diversity of social media is understood and how public functions are identified. By analyzing challenges and policy strategies outlined in these documents, it becomes possible to identify four alternative foundational positions based on social media being perceived as a problem/possibility or homogeneous/heterogeneous. The general tendency in all material is that routines of command and control are established in order to create clear goals and practices for individual social media activities and thereafter to discipline social media activities to remain firmly within the intentions of the blueprint. This explicitly disallows activities to adapt to needs developing through interaction with citizens. Nevertheless, we have also found a number of participatory strategies that are either aimed at increased quality of community services or at extending the marketability of the municipal brand.},

  abstract = {When it comes to platform sustainability, mitigating user privacy concerns and enhancing trust represent two major tasks providers of Social Networking Sites (SNSs) are facing today. State-of-the- art research advocates reliance on the justice-based measures as possible means to address these challenges. However, as providers are increasingly expanding into foreign markets, the effectiveness of these measures in a cross-cultural setting is questioned. In an attempt to address this set of issues, in this study we build on the existing model to examine the impact of culture on the robustness of four justice-based means in mitigating privacy concerns and ensuring trust. Survey responses from German and Russian SNS members are used to evaluate the two structural equation models, which are then compared. We find that perceptions regarding Procedural and Informational Justice are universally important and hence should be addressed as part of the basic strategy by the SNS provider. When expanding to collectivistic countries like Russia, measures enhancing perceptions of Distributive and Interpersonal Justice can be additionally applied. Beyond practical implications, our study makes a significant contribution to the theoretical discourse on the role of culture in determining individual perceptions and behavior.},

With the click of a mouse, we are able to browse through an applicant’s social and personal life, religious views, sexuality, nationality, and race, information that is not supposed to influence hiring decisions. Research has shown that more and more human resource professionals are taking advantage of these resources as they become available. It is the goal of this research project to understand how accessing job applicant social media sites are influencing hiring decisions. By researching local pre-employment screening practices, it was evident that using social networking sites as part of the screening process is a growing trend amongst many human resource professionals. This growing trend has not come without its pitfalls, however. Employees are being terminated for content found on their social media site and organizations are being targeted for unlawful access. After examining how businesses are utilizing social media sites during the pre-employment process, additional research is needed to better understand how businesses are preparing current employees for a culture where social media exists and creating policies and procedures which outlines appropriate social media use. iv},

  @inproceedings{Lange2007,
  abstract = {Scholars suggest that certain “lessons” supposedly learned from studying text- based information technologies may be applied to video-mediated environments. Some scholars believe that a key limitation of online text-based environments is a prevalence of anonymity which directly spawns antagonism. According to this view, increased amounts of identity information, such as ability to see faces and bodies in online encounters, will decrease communicative hostility. Examining video sharing practices on YouTube shows that such an assumption is flawed in multiple ways and is rooted in misunderstanding about the source of online hostility. For these researchers, hostility results from assumed online anonymity rather than from social or culture dynamics which may occur offline as well as online. The assumption ignores years of research that has demonstrated how embodied identity information is available and interpreted through textual exchange (Herring et al. 1995; O’Brien 1999; Baym 2000). Through an investigation of antagonistic or “hating” behaviors and reactions to it on YouTube, this paper argues that the addition of facial and bodily information in video does not guarantee cordial interaction. In addition, not all participants perceive online hostility or “hating” as a “problem” to the same degree. Despite the pain that hating causes for many people in the YouTube community, participants are often wary of implementing corrective mechanisms because they may complicate free speech and limit access to desired critical feedback. For many YouTube participants, certain regulatory mechanisms for ensuring cordial video reception and commentary are not perceived as effective or universally desired.},

In contrast to the bulk of research on social net- works that has focused almost exclusively on positive inter- pretations of links between people, we study how the inter- play between positive and negative relationships affects the structure of on-line social networks. We connect our anal- yses to theories of signed networks from social psychology. We find that the classical theory of structural balance tends to capture certain common patterns of interaction, but that it is also at odds with some of the fundamental phenomenawe observe—particularly related to the evolving, directed na- ture of these on-line networks. We then develop an alternate theory of status that better explains the observed edge signs and provides insights into the underlying socialmechanisms. Our work provides one of the first large-scale evaluations of theories of signed networks using on-line datasets, as well as providing a perspective for reasoning about social media sites.},

Seniors are the fastest growing demographic in online social networks. Marketers and advertisers are anxious to capture the attention and buying power of this demographic through this new channel. Yet very little is known about what influences seniors to use online social networks. This study uses results from a brief pilot study as well as theory and literature to build a conceptual model to examine what key factors influence seniors to use online social networks. The model that emerged describes ten key factors that influence use. Specifically the model indicates that perceptions of privacy, security along with Web experience and proclivity to give and get information are some of the key factors that influence elders to use online social networks. Finally using insights gained from the pilot and previous work in this area, a questionnaire to empirically validate the conceptual model is also presented. The model and the proposed questionnaire are a first step of an ongoing research project that also aim to provide others with a foundation to continue research in this area.},

It provides evidence for the development of a `connected' management of relationships, in which the (physically) absent party gains presence through the multiplication of mediated communication gestures on both sides, up to the point where copresent interactions and mediated distant exchanges seem woven into a single, seamless web. After reviewing some of the current social-science research, I rely on empirical studies of the uses of the home telephone, the mobile phone, and mobile text messaging in France to discuss how this particular repertoire of `connected' relationships has gradually crystallized as these technologies have become widespread and as each additional communi- cation resource has been made available to users. I also describe how such a `connected' mode coexists with a previous way of managing `mediated' relationships, in which communication technologies were thought to substitute or compensate for the rarity of face-to-face interactions.},

For example, these sites may jeopardise privacy, security and confidentiality, may waste company time, and may create tension within the workplace. Hence, it is crucial for organisations to develop a clear and enforceable policy for the use of these sites, which should be coupled with a personal, meaningful and contextualised education campaign. It is vital to emphasise the possible risks, reinforce the restrictions to use, and stress the consequences of a failure to comply.

  abstract = {Social networking sites have become an integral part in the modern world today. This thesis focuses on comparing and analyzing in detail the technical architectures of the two topmost leading networking sites--Facebook and LinkedIn. Detailed research on the communication services and network update services is presented. Scaling techniques: Functional partitioning, class partitioning along with data archiving and load balancing schemes have been explored in depth, and improvements have been proposed. The technical workflow between MySQL, Memcache, Alternative PHPcache, custom partitioning data, graph based data access libraries, leaf servers, aggregators, chat loggers, channel clusters, Network resolvers, Network collectors, Network digesters and supporting programming languages have been explored and documented. An extensive support to the open source platform with the customized developed frameworks has been well studied. Business aspects, strategies keeping the target audience in context, have been researched and then underlying opportunities in e-commerce world have been explored. An official survey was conducted with the approval from the Institutional Review Board among the target audience to learn about the users issues: following this appropriate solutions have been proposed. This thesis will serve as a single point of data access for the aspiring networking site developers to learn about technical architectures, corresponding supporting customized services, data models and all other required technical details of the two existing most popular networking sites.},

Goffman offers a way of resolving this dichotomy via the idea of an interaction order which is constitutive of self and at the same time places demands on social structure.

In order to relate counterintelligence (CI) and cyber counterintelligence (CCI) to social networking, CI and CCI are explained. CI involves an organization recognizing that it is the target of intelligence operations and takes measures to deny or negatively influence intelligence collection. CCI is CI executed via cyber means. The intelligence life cycle is discussed as process of planning and direction, collection, processing, analysis and production, and dissemination to intelligence consumers. CI and CCI fit into the intelligence life cycle as an organization executes measures to impact, influence, or impede the intelligence life cycle of an adversary collecting intelligence against it. Social networking is discussed along with applications of social networking by criminals, the United States, foreign governments, law enforcement, and employers. Once applications of social networking are presented, relationships will be drawn between social networking applications and CI methods including deception and counterintelligence operations. Legal, ethical, and privacy issues surrounding the use of social networking will be presented. With the understanding of social networking applications, CI methods, and various},

It can be formulated as a conjecture that links two concepts: shared awareness and the social emotions. Cooley assumed that we live in the minds of others, and named pride and shame as the emotions that resulted. Goffman added embarrassment and humiliation. His basic work, Presentation of Self in Everyday Life, is dense with these four emotions. Goffman’s development of the second concept, shared awareness (the degree of attunement) is also described. The conjunction of shared awareness and emotion in Goffman’s work may be the feature that attracts reader’s sympathy. Two basic hypotheses are formulated, and techniques that might be used to test or apply them.},

Goffman was an incredibly perceptive observer of the microworld of social interaction. He furnished us with a vocabulary for uncovering this world. 2. Most of Goffman’s descriptions of interaction represented emotions as well as thought and action. In this respect they were three dimensional, arousing the reader’s emotions and sympathy. 3. His primary substantive focus was the Western conception of the self as an isolated, self-contained individual. He repeatedly offered an alternative conception: the self as an aspect of social and cultural arrangements. 4. Finally, and most broadly, all of his work deconstructed the assumptive reality current in our society. It was mainly this last direction which made his work controversial, but also gives it revolutionary potential. I propose that Goffman wrote in the tradition of Whitehead, Koestler, Schutz, and Mannheim, in order to create a new social science culture.},

Early investigations of the impact of perceivers' expectancies on the actions of target individuals illuminated the contribution or perceivers to the identity negotiation process but overlooked the role of targets. The research discussed here is based on the assumption that targets play an active role in the identity negotiation process. Specifically, just as perceivers strive to validate their expectancies, targets seek to verify their self-views. The nature and antecedents of the processes through which people verify their self-conceptions as well as the relationship of these activities to self-concept change and self-enhancemcnt processes are discussed. This research suggests that perceivers and targets enter their interactions with independent and sometimes contradicting agendas that are resolved through a process of identity negotiation. The identity negotiation process therefore provides a theoretical context in which the intetplay between other-perception and self-perception can be understood.},

The first stage of the argument identifies several distinctive features of virtue ethics that make it uniquely suited to the domain of IT ethics, while remaining com- plementary to other normative approaches. I also note its potential to reconcile a number of significant methodo- logical conflicts and debates in the existing literature, including tensions between phenomenological and con- structivist perspectives. Finally, I claim that a virtue-based perspective is needed to correct for a strong utilitarian bias in the research methodologies of existing empirical studies on the social and ethical impact of IT. The second part of the paper offers an abbreviated demonstration of the merits of virtue ethics by showing how it might usefully illumi- nate the moral dimension of emerging social networking technologies. I focus here on the potential impact of such technologies on three virtues typically honed in commu- nicative practices: patience, honesty and empathy.},

Recent publications on the impact of ‘‘Web 2.0’’ proclaim very opposite evaluative positions. With the aim of finding a middle ground, this paper develops a pragmatist approach to SNS based on the work of Richard Rorty. The argument proceeds in three steps. First, we analyze SNS as conver- sational practices. Second, we outline, in the form of an imaginary conversation between Rorty and Heidegger, a positive and negative ‘conversational’ view on SNS. Third, we deploy a reflection, again using Rortian notions, on that evaluation, starting from the concept of ‘self-reflectivity.’ Finally, the relations between these three steps are more detailedly investigated. By way of the sketched technique, we can interrelate the two opposing sides of the recent debates—hope and threat—and judge SNS in all their ambiguity.},

An online survey of 353 subjects on two major SNS in China showed socio-integrative needs were the strongest motivation for all users who participated in SNS. However, some gender differences were also found. Males were more interested in finding news than female users. Males were also more likely than females to talk about their problems. Female users were more likely than males to facilitate social interactions on SNS. Other results showed low frequency SNS users participated in more activities than high frequency users. The number of friends each user had was not significantly associated with participation in different activities.},

  @inproceedings{Zamzami2010,
  abstract = {Privacy has been a subject of discussion long before the advent of computer networks, however, the notion of privacy has taken a dramatic turn due to the proliferation of information technology tools and applications, which is further aggravated by the social networking sites which allow users to display their profile information to be viewed and shared by millions of online visitors. This gives the potential of negative use of their information. Previous works have concentrated largely on privacy in online transaction with just a few on the higher institution of learning, which is regarded as one of the earliest adopters of information technology and the most unsecured environments. This work examines the perception of online privacy among university students with the intention of examining the relationship between the demography, level of awareness and online privacy. The results show that despite there is no significant difference based on gender as well as whether the respondent is in IT related field or not, there is a contradiction between the level of awareness and expected attitude to online privacy.},

We accomplish this by analyzing profile images on two social networking sites, Facebook in the US and Renren in China. Our findings indicate that self-presentation is sensitive to national culture: Chinese users are more likely to customize their profile images than Americans. Our study suggests that there is a need to design social networking website features that better support profile construction for international users.},

  @article{Zimmer2010,
  abstract = {In 2008, a group of researchers publicly released profile data collected from the Facebook accounts of an entire cohort of college students from a US univer- sity. While good-faith attempts were made to hide the identity of the institution and protect the privacy of the data subjects, the source of the data was quickly identified, placing the privacy of the students at risk. Using this incident as a case study, this paper articulates a set of ethical concerns that must be addressed before embarking on future research in social networking sites, including the nature of consent, properly identifying and respecting expectations of privacy on social network sites, strategies for data anonymization prior to public release, and the relative expertise of institutional review boards when confronted with research projects based on data gleaned from social media},

Participants (n= 614) at a large, urban university in the Midwestern United States completed an online survey. Results are that a subset of users, those more extroverted and with higher self-esteem, support the Social Enhancement hypothesis, being more popular both offline and on Face- book. Another subset of users, those less popular offline, support the Social Compen- sation hypotheses because they are more introverted, have lower self-esteem and strive more to look popular on Facebook. Semantic network analysis of open-ended responses reveals that these two user subsets also have different meanings for offline and online popularity. Furthermore, regression explains nearly twice the variance in offline popularity as in Facebook popularity, indicating the latter is not as socially grounded or defined as offline popularity},

Narcissistic personality self-reports were collected from social networking Web page owners. Then their Web pages were coded for both objective and subjective content features. Finally, strangers viewed the Web pages and rated their impression of the owner on agentic traits, communal traits, and narcissism. Narcissism predicted (a) higher levels of social activity in the online community and (b) more self-promoting content in several aspects of the social networking Web pages. Strangers who viewed the Web pages judged more narcissistic Web page owners to be more narcissistic. Finally, mediational analyses revealed several Web page content features that were influential in raters' narcissistic impressions of the owners, including quantity of social interaction, main photo self-promotion, and main photo attractiveness. Implications of the expression of narcissism in social networking communities are discussed.},

  abstract = {OBJECTIVE: To assess pharmacy students' Facebook activity and opinions regarding accountability and e-professionalism and determine effects of an e-professionalism education session on pharmacy students' posting behavior. METHODS: A 21-item questionnaire was developed, pilot-tested, revised, and administered to 299 pharmacy students at 3 colleges of pharmacy. Following a presentation regarding potential e-professionalism issues with Facebook, pharmacy students with existing profiles answered an additional question concerning changes in online posting behavior. RESULTS: Incoming first-year pharmacy students' Facebook usage is consistent with that of the general college student population. Male students are opposed to authority figures' use of Facebook for character and professionalism judgments and are more likely to present information they would not want faculty members, future employers, or patients to see. More than half of the pharmacy students planned to make changes to their online posting behavior as a result of the e-professionalism presentation. CONCLUSIONS: There is high social media usage among pharmacy students and many do not fully comprehend the issues that arise from being overly transparent in online settings. Attitudes toward accountability for information supplied via social networking emphasize the need for e-professionalism training of incoming pharmacy students.},

  abstract = {Online social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace are extremely popular as indicated by the numbers of members and visits to the sites. They allow students to connect with users with similar interests, build and maintain relationships with friends, and feel more connected with their campus. The foremost criticisms of online social networking are that students may open themselves to public scrutiny of their online personas and risk physical safety by revealing excessive personal information. This review outlines issues of online social networking in higher education by drawing upon articles in both the lay press and academic publications. New points for pharmacy educators to consider include the possible emergence of an "e-professionalism" concept; legal and ethical implications of using online postings in admission, discipline, and student safety decisions; how online personas may blend into professional life; and the responsibility for educating students about the risks of online social networking.},

  abstract = {Facebook, the popular social network site, is changing the nature of privacy and the consequences of information disclosure. Despite recent media reports regarding the negative consequences of disclosing information on social network sites such as Facebook, students are generally thought to be unconcerned about the potential costs of this disclosure. The current study explored undergraduate students' information disclosure and information control on Facebook and the personality factors that influence levels of disclosure and control. Participants in this online survey were 343 undergraduate students who were current users of Facebook. Results indicated that participants perceived that they disclosed more information about themselves on Facebook than in general, but participants also reported that information control and privacy were important to them. Participants were very likely to have posted information such as their birthday and e-mail address, and almost all had joined an online network. They were also very likely to post pictures such as a profile picture, pictures with friends, and even pictures at parties and drinking with friends. Contrary to expectations, information disclosure and information control were not significantly negatively correlated, and multiple regression analyses revealed that while disclosure was significantly predicted by the need for popularity, levels of trust and self-esteem predicted information control. Therefore, disclosure and control on Facebook are not as closely related as expected but rather are different processes that are affected by different aspects of personality. Implications of these findings and suggestions for future research are discussed.},

Participants (usually called players) have the appearance of being situated in an artificially-constructed place that also contains those other players who are connected at the same time. Players can communicate easily with each other in real time. This virtual gathering place has many of the social attributes of other places, and many of the usual social mechanisms operate there. Certain attributes of this virtual place, however, tend to have significant effects on social phenomena, leading to new mechanisms and modes of behavior not usually seen `IRL' (in real life). In this paper, I relate my experiences and observations from having created and maintained a MUD for over a year.},

The current research examines the correspondence in impressions formed from face-to-face interaction and personal webpages. As expected, people liked by interaction partners were also liked on the basis of their Facebook((R)) pages. Across the two social mediums, social perceivers utilized analogous criteria in forming impressions: interaction partners and webpage viewers liked people who were socially expressive in face-to-face interaction and personal webpages, respectively. Finally, webpage expressivity and webpage self-disclosure were independent constructs, predictive of face-to-face counterparts: nonverbal expressivity and verbal self-disclosure. Implications for the changing landscape of social perception are discussed.},

This evidence comes from a 1998 survey of 39,211 visitors to the National Geographic SocietyWeb site, one of the first large-scaleWeb surveys. The authors find that people’s interaction online supplements their face-to-face and telephone communication without increasing or decreasing it. However, heavy Internet use is associated with increased participation in voluntary organizations and politics. Further support for this effect is the positive association between offline and online participation in voluntary organizations and politics. However, the effects of the Internet are not only positive: The heaviest users of the Internet are the least committed to online community. Taken together, this evidence suggests that the Internet is becoming normalized as it is incorporated into the routine practices of everyday life.},

  @article{Williams2006,
  abstract = {Scholars investigating the relationship between the Internet and social capital have been stymied by a series of obstacles, some due to theoretical frameworks handed down unchanged from television research, and some due to the lack of an appropriate yardstick. For example, the social interactions that occur through television are prima facie different from those that occur online. Given this basic functional difference, we cannot approach social capital research in an online era with the same set of assumptions and measures. To address this gap in the literature and in our measurement toolkits, this article reports on the development and validation of the Internet Social Capital Scales, or ISCS. These scales are intended to measure two different types of social capital—known as "bridging" and "bonding"—for both online and offline contexts. Question items are developed and tested and found to be valid and psychometrically sound. Potential uses of the scales are then discussed.},

  abstract = {Online social network users may leave creative, subtle cues on their public profiles to communicate their motivations and interests to other network participants. This paper explores whether psychological predictions can be made about the motivations of social network users by identifying and analyzing these cues. Focusing on the domain of relationship seeking, we predicted that people using social networks for dating would reveal that they have a single relationship status as a method of eliciting contact from potential romantic others. Based on results from a pilot study (n = 20) supporting this hypothesis, we predicted that people attempting to attract users of the same religious background would report a religious affiliation along with a single relationship status. Using observational data from 150 Facebook profiles, results from a multivariate logistic regression suggest that people providing a religious affiliation were more likely to list themselves as single (a proxy for their interest in using the network to find romantic partners) than people who do not provide religious information. We discuss the implications for extracting psychological information from Facebook profiles. To our knowledge, this is the first study to suggest that information from publicly available online social networking profiles can be used to predict people's motivations for using social networks.},
