Toward a conceptual definition
Lasswell's 1948 communication model
- Who - the communicator
- Says what - the content
- In which channel - medium
- To whom - recipient
- With what effect? - the outcome
None of these definitions mentions the audience or the effect of social media
Study found definitions in SoMe context
- Who - individual users, communities of people, organizations, industries
, - Says what - information and digital user-generated content in several formats: words,
static, moving images, audio (no info on message content)
- In which channel - web-based technology vs. platform
- Why? (added) - create, cocreate, exchange, share, discuss
after this they realized that
- prev definitions primarily focus on the use of social media at the micro-level (not
organizations and industries
- when content was mentioned, attention was given to its format
- Definitions omitted the effect of communication acts involving social media →
complexity
- MISSA
came up with a cube model
