This paper analyzes the role of different origins to news media in selective exposure. We rely on a unique web-tracking online dataset from Spain to identify points of access to news outlets and study the influence of direct navigation and news-referred platforms (i.e., from Facebook and Google) on selective exposure. We also explore cross-level interactions between origins to news and political interest and ideology. We find that direct navigation increases selective exposure while Google reduces it. We also find that the relationship between origins to news and selective exposure is strongly moderated by ideology, suggesting that search engines and social media are not content neutral. Our findings suggest a rather complex picture regarding selective exposure online.

Proper diet is an important way to improve and maintain health, which involves the comprehensive matching of food (category, quantity) and individual (physical fitness, health). Behavior is the key point to achieve this matching. Without behavior change, all cognition and motivations can’t get any tangible health benefits. The aim of this study was to construct a model for analysis and intervention of healthy dietary behavior (HDB). Based on the Integrated Behavioral Model (IBM), Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and Satter’s hierarchy of food needs, this study abstracted the characteristics of longevity, specificity and uncertainty of Healthy Dietary Behavior, constructed a Healthy Dietary Behavioral Model (HDBM), divided 9 negative behaviors of healthy diet (NBHD), and put forward 9 behavior interventions, which could provide ideas for change and habit formation of HDB.

AbstractPalliative care is a specialized service with proven efficacy in improving patients’ quality-of-life. Nevertheless, lack of awareness and misunderstanding limits its adoption. Research is urgently needed to understand the determinants (e.g., knowledge) related to its adoption. Traditionally, these determinants are measured with questionnaires. In this study, we explored Twitter to reveal these determinants guided by the Integrated Behavioral Model. A secondary goal is to assess the feasibility of extracting user demographics from Twitter data—a significant shortcoming in existing studies that limits our ability to explore more fine-grained research questions (e.g., gender difference). Thus, we collected, preprocessed, and geocoded palliative care-related tweets from 2013 to 2019 and then built classifiers to:1) categorize tweets into promotional vs. consumer discussions, and 2) extract user gender. Using topic modeling, we explored whether the topics learned from tweets are comparable to responses of palliative care-related questions in the Health Information National Trends Survey.
