Recently, an emerging app, TikTok, received much interest owing its popularity among general consumers. We notice that there are videos about on TikTok. However, it remains unclear whether information in these is satisfactory quality.This study aimed assess quality diabetes-related TikTok.We collected a sample 199 Chinese. The basic presented was...

Purpose Although leveraging social media to access healthcare information is nothing new, a boom in short video apps offers new potential for disseminating health-related information. However, it still unclear how might facilitate and benefit users’ consumption of health Furthermore, the technology features complicate attempts conduct research about them; as consequence, they have been understudied. For addressing these concerns, this study adopts an affordance perspective investigate...

Background With the world’s population aging, more health-conscious older adults are seeking health information to make better-informed decisions. The rapid growth of internet has empowered access web-based sources. However, research explicitly exploring adults’ online (OHIS) behavior is still underway. Objective This systematic scoping review aims understand OHIS and answer four questions: (1) What types do seek where they on internet? (2) factors that influence OHIS? (3) barriers (4) How...

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has become one of the most critical public health problems worldwide. Because many COPD patients are using video-based social media to search for information, there is an urgent need assess information quality videos on media. Recently, short-video app TikTok demonstrated huge potential in disseminating and currently available TikTok; however, these remains unknown.The aim this study was investigate TikTok.In December 2020, we retrieved screened...

Purpose Hedonic social applications have been increasingly popular among health information consumers. However, it remains unclear what motivates consumers to adopt in hedonic when they alternative choices of more formal sources. Building on the self-determination theory and affordances lens, this study aims investigate how different affect consumers' basic psychological needs further influence their intention such applications. Design/methodology/approach As TikTok demonstrated great...

Background Chronic diseases are the leading causes of death and disability. With growing patient population climbing health care expenditures, researchers policy makers seeking new approaches to improve accessibility information on chronic while lowering costs. Online sources can play a substantial role in effective education communication. However, some contradictory evidence suggests that patients with conditions may not necessarily seek online information. Objective This study aims...

The incidence of Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), also known as the broken heart or stress cardiomyopathy, is increasing worldwide. understanding its prognosis has been progressively evolving and currently appears to be poorer than previously thought, which attracted attention researchers. An attempt recognize awareness this condition among general population drove us analyze dissemination topic on TikTok, a popular short-video-based social media platform.

Freemium open-world games have become one of the most profitable game genres through sale in-game items. However, despite apparent commercial success freemium approach to games, antecedents players' purchase intention been understudied. In this study, we built a theoretical framework based on cognitive absorption (CA) theory understand mechanism underlying in games. Several hypotheses were proposed regarding how CA was formed and CA's influence might be moderated by motivational affordances...

Abstract To achieve real-time monitoring and intelligent maintenance of transformers, a framework based on deep vision digital twin has been developed. An enhanced visual detection model, DETR + X, is proposed, implementing multidimensional sample data augmentation through Swin2SR GAN networks. This model converts one-dimensional DGA into three-dimensional feature images Gram angle fields, facilitating the transformation fusion heterogeneous modal information. The Pyramid Vision Transformer...

More and more social Q&A platforms are launching a new business model to monetize online knowledge. This monetizing process introduces complicated cost benefit tradeoff users, especially for askers' concerns. Much of the previous research was conducted in context free‐based platform, which hardly explains triggers that motivate pay intention. Based on theories exchange capital, this study aims identify examine antecedents intention from perspective cost. We empirically test our...

Purpose In the domain of information science, affordance is a relatively new concept that deserves further exploration. It may serve as bridge to narrow research-practice gap has persisted in studies. Building upon previous research, we call for broader would help researchers understand practices from an ecological perspective. Design/methodology/approach The study focuses on conceptualizing affordances order theorize engagement among people, technology, and sociocultural environments. We...

Abstract The importance of government environmental financial incentives in stimulating firms' green innovation has long been recognized. However, researchers have yet to fully determine how a small amount can be used promote expensive innovation. Unlike prior studies based on the investigation direct effects, this study provides new perspective by employing signaling theory. Focusing protection support policy (EPSP) China, it employs ordinary least squares (OLS) regression and generalized...

Social media has afforded its users more convenience than ever in accessing, sharing, and preserving information. However, one problematic outcome, digital hoarding, become a phenomenon of concern nowadays hedonic social use. This study aims to investigate the causes hoarding how it is exacerbated context. We divide information into two dimensions (ie, accumulating difficulty deleting) draw on conceptual lens fear missing out (FoMO) understand separately generative mechanism these media. In...
