I have always been very fascinated with studying social media behaviors. In the last 5 years, Twitter trends have included an increase in the use of professional accounts. Because there is little research that investigates this trend and how it may relate to credibility judgments and perceptions, I was very motivated to design a study to increase the understanding of this trend and its influence. I really appreciate you viewing my presentation and taking the time to leave a comment!
This is great food for thought! Being a printed news fanatic, I have avoided Twitter specifically because of all the negative content, especially from politicians. I’m so proud of the Wasinger connection!
Excellent question! Thank you!
I think it can be really helpful to review faculty research interests, determine what area in your field you would like to study, and then I suggest reaching out to faculty and asking for opportunities! It can also be helpful to reach out to other students first. Doing so can provide prospective student researchers with more insight into what the process entails. I am always willing to talk with prospective researchers!
Excellent work on your research Grace. Social media and its influence fascinates me. Thank you for representing FHSU.
