Jay FoglemanOverview of journal issue dedicated to research from a variety of fields on online communities.
-
Sociologists, social psychologists and anthropologists are the guardians of the term but for more than 50 years, they been have defining and redefining the concept of community (Wellman, 1982)
-
Researchers now consider the strength and nature of relationships between individuals to be a more useful basis for defining community than physical proximity
-
online community' to connote the intense feelings of camaraderie, empathy and support that they observed among people in the online spaces they studied
-
These researchers focus on 'the people who come together for a particular purpose, and who are guided by policies (including norms and rules) and supported by software.
-
While such approaches to definition might be hard for some academics to accept, they may encourage us to concentrate on more substantive issues such as how communities are created, evolve or cease to exist online
-
it is accepted that online communities rarely exist only online; many have off-line physical components

Content and linguistic analysis techniques

Online interviews and questionnaires

The call inviting contributions for this special collection identified design, theory and practice as key issues for authors to address.
-
authors of nineteen were invited to submit full manuscripts.
-
though few attempt to directly address practical design issues, which is an important topic for future research
-
Their analysis shows how a loose collection of professionals with a common interest can develop a rhythm of conversation that allows the development of sustainable and meaningful online interaction,
-
provide a deeper understanding of the use and social impact of a mature networked community
-
One important finding was a positive correlation between amount of participation in the group and psycho-social well-being over time
-
designed and implemented a study to test design principles based upon social psychology theories. Their work points out that the fundamental challenge when using these theories to inform design is the differences in the goals and values of social psychologists and HCI/CSCW researchers.
-
research agenda has moved beyond characterizing participation of one or a few communities using a single medium such as Usenet or bulletin board
-
applying and developing theories that explain what is observe
