Key research themes

1. What motivates consumers to create and engage with user-generated content (UGC) in digital and social media platforms?

This research area investigates the psychological, social, and attitudinal drivers behind why consumers generate content online and how these motivations influence media consumption patterns. Understanding these motivations is essential for marketers, media producers, and platform designers to foster active user participation, tailor content strategies, and enhance engagement within increasingly user-centric digital ecosystems.

Key finding: The study (n=325) identifies ego-defensive and social attitude functions as primary mediators of user-generated content creation, demonstrating that positive attitudes significantly bridge the use and creation of UGC. This... Read more
Key finding: Employing social cognitive theory and survey data from 1,488 German Internet users, this paper shows that cognitive constructs such as self-efficacy and privacy concerns mediate sociodemographic influences on distinct types... Read more
Key finding: Field study involving 38 event attendees across two countries demonstrates that demographic variables (including age and gender), technological expertise, and sharing attitudes do not significantly impact satisfaction or... Read more

2. How do the quality dimensions of user-generated content influence its perceived value and utility among users?

This theme focuses on dissecting the multidimensional qualities of UGC—including content, design, and technology—and how these qualities impact the functional, emotional, and social values perceived by users. Understanding these dynamics enables improved content strategy and platform design to maximize users’ perceived benefits from UGC, which is crucial for sustaining robust user engagement and utility in Web 2.0 environments.

Key finding: Empirical results confirm that UGC's content, design, and technological quality dimensions strongly enhance its functional, emotional, and social value, which in turn significantly increases UGC's utility for users. This... Read more
Key finding: Apart from motivational insights, the study also implicates how affective components of attitude relating to ego and social functions influence perceptions of UGC quality and value, intertwining motivational and evaluative... Read more

3. What are the behavioral patterns and social network structures underlying content generation and consumption in online communities?

Research within this theme analyzes active versus passive participation distributions, temporal stability of highly active contributors, social connectivity among users, and how these factors influence the ‘wisdom of crowds’ concept and collective content quality. Such insights are critical for understanding participation inequality, content visibility, and the emergent properties of online content ecosystems.

Key finding: Findings based on datasets from Facebook and Twitter reveal that less than 7% of users produce 50% of UGC, with this group remaining consistently active over time and highly interconnected socially. The study also identifies... Read more
Key finding: Interviews with media executives demonstrate that user-generated content contributions often remain modest due to audience disinterest or skill deficits, contrasting with the greater user engagement with non-news content.... Read more
Key finding: Comparative analysis of online and face-to-face bridge communities concludes that active players form a minority but highly connected core with substantial temporal stability. The study introduces playing relationships as a... Read more
