[Commlist] IJoC Publishes a Special Section on COVID-19, Digital Media, and Health

Wed Jan 11 18:13:28 GMT 2023






International Journal of Communication Publishes a Special Section on
COVID-19, Digital Media, and Health

What role do and did digital media play in individuals' health during the
COVID-19 pandemic? And vice versa, what impact does or did individuals'
health have on their digital media use in pandemic times?

Guest-edited by Kathrin Karsay, Anne-Linda Camerini, and Jörg Matthes, this
Special Section on COVID-19, Digital Media, and Health addresses the role of
digital media as an information source, a tool for emotional expression,
and, consequently, a determinant of psychological and social well-being
during the COVID-19 pandemic. It includes six articles covering research
data from the United States, Ireland, the Netherlands, and South Korea. As
such, the authors provide diverse and rich perspectives on the correlations
of COVID-19, digital media, and health. The theoretical and empirical
contributions provide lessons for research on digital media and health in a
pandemic—but also beyond. We conclude that the pandemic has provided an
impetus for reflection within the discipline and call for renewed focus on
theory building as well as longitudinal, multi-data, multi-platform, and
multi-method designs.
   We invite you to read these articles that published in the International
Journal of Communication on January 10, 2023. Please log into ijoc.org to
