Abstrakt: | This systematic review explored risk and crisis communication literature to examine how researchers have evaluated social media use in public crises. Twenty-four full-text articles were reviewed, the majority of which focused on natural disasters (n = 11). Studies were commonly descriptive in design (n = 21), used content analysis (n = 12), and examined the content and structure of messages (n = 18). Studies focused on blogs and microblogs (n = 20); social networks (n = 9); content communities (n = 4); and collaborative projects (n = 3), and the most commonly studied platforms were Twitter (n = 17) and Facebook (n = 9). Findings provide insight regarding the opportunities and challenges related to social media use during public crises. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
