项目摘要

This project will study potentially harmful social media challenges, in which participants record themselves engaging in specific activities, share the experience in social networks, and encourage others to participate. Some challenges have positive effects. For example, the ALS Ice Bucket challenge involved people dumping a bucket of ice water over their heads to raise awareness of and funding for Lou Gehrig's disease. Others, however, encourage people to engage in behaviors that risk physical or psychological harm. For example, the Cinnamon challenge involves eating a spoonful of cinnamon, which can cause severe respiratory distress, while the Blue Whale challenge encourages a series of increasingly self-harmful behaviors culminating in suicide. Although there is much folklore and hearsay around such harmful challenges, actual studies and data about them are sparse. To address this, the project team will conduct a series of interview studies along with quantitative analysis of social network data around the Cinnamon and Blue Whale challenges. Analyses will examine both individual-level and message-level factors that lead people to participate in and spread these challenges. The results will inform the development of preventative measures to mitigate the spread of harmful viral Internet challenges. Findings will also provide a better understanding of how to protect vulnerable individuals who are exposed to the challenges from both the direct potential risks of participating and indirect potential risks (e.g., through the normalization of self-harm and peer pressure to engage in it).The project will address a number of specific research questions, including: 1) better assessing the extent to which viral social media challenges have caused real harm and pose a public health risk to social media users, and 2) identifying characteristics of both the messages containing these challenges and the individuals receiving and spreading them that predict risk, adoption, and spread of the challenges. The work is organized into two main thrusts. In the first, the team will conduct semi-structured, retrospective interviews with approximately 30 adolescent and young adult social media users (ages 13-25) and/or their families, who report being harmed or committing self-harm after engaging in social media challenges prevalent at the time of the studies. The questions will be structured to assess factors known to contribute to self-harm contagion effects (such as graphic depiction of the challenge, peer pressure, and support for self-harmful activities), as well as to probe people's own motivations and decision-making around participating in such challenges. The second main thrust involves larger-scale quantitative analysis of digital trace data about self-harmful challenges from five popular social media sites. This portion of the study will first include constructing and cleaning the dataset (both in terms of protecting personal information and capturing data relevant to the challenges). Next, the researchers will employ qualitative coding of how the challenge messages deviate from the Suicide Prevention Resource Center's evidence-based safe messaging guidelines. These analyses are intended to identify strategies that authors use to spread the challenges as well as the potential risk each poses. Finally, computational modeling will relate message characteristics to measures of message reach such as likes, views, and shares. Together, these research activities will provide much-needed empirical evidence of real-world social media behavior and individual decision-making around these harmful challenges. The data can be used to inform theory development regarding the spread of viral challenges, as well as interventions to mitigate their future harms.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
该项目将研究潜在有害的社交媒体挑战,参与者记录自己参与特定活动,在社交网络上分享经验,并鼓励其他人参与。有些挑战有积极的影响。例如,ALS冰桶挑战要求人们将一桶冰水倒在头上,以提高人们对Lou Gehrig病的认识并为其筹集资金。然而,另一些则鼓励人们从事可能造成身体或心理伤害的行为。例如,肉桂挑战包括吃一勺肉桂,这可能会导致严重的呼吸困难,而蓝鲸挑战鼓励一系列越来越自残的行为,最终导致自杀。尽管关于这些有害挑战有很多民间传说和传闻,但关于它们的实际研究和数据却很少。为了解决这个问题,项目团队将围绕肉桂和蓝鲸的挑战进行一系列访谈研究,并对社交网络数据进行定量分析。分析将检查导致人们参与和传播这些挑战的个人层面和信息层面的因素。研究结果将为制定预防措施提供信息,以减轻有害的病毒式互联网挑战的传播。研究结果还将有助于更好地了解如何保护面临挑战的弱势个体,使其免受参与的直接潜在风险和间接潜在风险(例如,通过自我伤害和同伴压力的正常化)。该项目将解决一些具体的研究问题,包括:1)更好地评估病毒式社交媒体挑战对社交媒体用户造成实际伤害和构成公共健康风险的程度,以及2)确定包含这些挑战的信息以及接收和传播这些挑战的个人的特征,这些特征可以预测挑战的风险、采用和传播。这项工作分为两个主要部分。首先,研究小组将对大约30名青少年和年轻的社交媒体用户(13-25岁)和/或他们的家人进行半结构化的回顾性访谈,这些人报告在参与研究期间流行的社交媒体挑战后受到伤害或有自残行为。这些问题的结构将评估已知的有助于自残传染效应的因素(如挑战的图形描述,同伴压力和对自残活动的支持),以及探索人们自己的动机和参与这些挑战的决策。第二个重点涉及对来自五个流行社交媒体网站的有关自我伤害挑战的数字痕迹数据进行大规模定量分析。研究的这一部分将首先包括构建和清理数据集(包括保护个人信息和捕获与挑战相关的数据)。接下来,研究人员将采用定性编码的挑战信息如何偏离自杀预防资源中心的基于证据的安全信息指南。这些分析旨在确定作者用来传播挑战以及每个挑战带来的潜在风险的策略。最后,计算建模将消息特征与消息到达的度量(如喜欢、视图和共享)联系起来。总之,这些研究活动将为现实世界的社交媒体行为和个人围绕这些有害挑战的决策提供急需的经验证据。这些数据可用于指导有关病毒挑战传播的理论发展,以及减轻其未来危害的干预措施。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
