[ecrea] CfP "Communication Approaches to Participatory Websites and User-Generated Content"

Wed Nov 23 09:19:56 GMT 2011



Call for Papers: Special issue of the Journal of Computer-Mediated
Communication, "Communication Approaches to Participatory Websites and
User-Generated Content."
Joseph B. Walther, guest editor.


Among the most important developments in CMC are participatory websites
featuring user-generated content (e.g., Web 2.0 sites with product/seller
reviews, social network sites that invite "friends'" contributions,
talk-back features on online news sites, wikis, etc.).
This issue of JCMC will focus on the extension, adaptation, and
application of theoretical approaches to the uses and effects of these
messaging systems.
We invite evidence-based papers that address the creation and impacts of
user-generated content, system-aggregated indicators of user input, and/or
their interplay with owner-generated content, on the perceptions,
attitudes, and behavior of participants and viewers of such sites.
Criteria for acceptance will involve the degree of exemplification of the
communication aspects of the topic, and the degree to which articles join
theoretical analysis with rigorous empirical investigation. Manuscripts
will be reviewed anonymously by a special editorial board and other JCMC
reviewers; authors must prepare submissions to facilitate anonymous
review.

Submissions must not exceed 30 pages, and must reflect APA (6th ed.) style.

Deadline for submission is December 10, 2011.

Please contact the editor with any questions, or to submit manuscripts as
attachments, at<mailto:(jcmc /at/ cmcresearch.org)>   (jcmc /at/ cmcresearch.org).
