This study aims to find the causes of changes in trends in the use of social media. Social media which is a means for interaction, communication, conveying information effectively and efficiently, saves complex problems. The use of social media then develops not only in the aspect of communication, but also in the production area. Some groups create new jobs on social media and use it as a means to market their products, goods and services. This proves that there has been a shift in the tendency to utilize social media. To find the causes of this change in trend, this study used a qualitative method using Thomas Kuhn's shifting paradigm approach. Through this approach, this study finds that shifting trends are influenced by the dynamics of deviations in using social media that often occur. This deviation gave rise to a crisis that resulted in a significant change in people's behavior in their social reality, so that to overcome this problem, social media users changed their activities in using media to be more productive. The crisis was not only responded to by users but also by social media service providers. In this case, social media service providers begin to improve their quality and features by narrowing the target, so that users can use them specifically according to their needs.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan penyebab adanya perubahan kecenderungan dalam penggunaan media sosial. Media sosial yang merupakan sarana untuk melakukan interaksi, komunikasi, menyampaikan informasi secara efektif dan efisien, menyimpan problem yang kompleks. Pemanfaatan penggunaan media sosial kemudian berkembang tidak hanya dalam aspek komunikasi, akan tetapi masuk dalam wilayah produksi. Beberapa kalangan menciptakan lapangan pekerjaan baru dalam media sosial dan menjadikannya sebagai sarana untuk memasarkan produk, barang dan jasanya. Hal demikian membuktikan bahwa telah terjadi pergeseran kecenderungan dalam memanfaatkan media sosial. Untuk menemukan penyebab perubahan kecenderungan tersebut, penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan menggunakan pendekatan shifting paradigm Thomas Kuhn. Melalui pendekatan tersebut, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa pergeseran kecenderungan dipengaruhi oleh dinamika penyimpangan dalam menggunakan media sosial yang sering terjadi. Penyimpangan ini memunculkan krisis yang berdampak pada perubahan perilaku yang signifikan masyarakat dalam realitas sosialnya, sehingga untuk mengatasi problem tersebut, para pengguna media sosial mengubah aktivitas mereka dalam memanfaatkan media menjadi lebih produktif. Krisis tersebut tidak hanya direpon oleh pengguna akan tetapi juga direspon oleh para penyedia layanan media sosial. Dalam hal ini, penyedia layanan media sosial mulai meningkatkan kualitas dan fiturnya dengan menyempitkan sasaran, sehingga dapat dengan spesifik dimanfaatkan oleh para pengguna sesuai dengan kebutuhan mereka.

Interpretative Model

This paper aims at contributing to financial reporting literature by proposing a conceptual interpretative model to analyse the corporate use of social media for financial communication purposes. In this perspective, the FIRE model provides a framework to study social media shifting the focus on the distinctive features that might enhance web investor relations. The model highlights these features through four building blocks: (i) firm identity (F); (ii) information posting (I); (iii) reputation (R); and (iv) exchange and diffusion (E). They represent key aspects to explore corporate communication activities and might offer a framework to interpret to what degree corporate web financial reporting exploits the potential of social media. Accordingly, the paper proposes metrics based on this model aimed at capturing the interactivity of corporate communications via social media, with a particular focus on web financial reporting. It tries to show the potential of this model by illustrating an exploratory empirical analysis investigating to what extent companies use social media for financial reporting purposes and whether firms are taking advantage of Twitter distinctive features of interaction and diffusion.

This article aims to explain maqâṣid al-Qur’ân according to M. Quraish Shihab and its application in interpreting verses related to the use of social media. The problem that will be answered in this article covers two main issues, namely how the perspective of maqâṣid al-Qur’ân according to M. Quraish Shihab and how it is applied in interpreting the verses of the use of social media. The method used is the thematic method, namely discussing verses based on themes. Fr om this study the authors concluded that according to M. Quraish Shihab there are six elements of a large group of universal goals of the al-Qur’ân, namely strengthening the faith, humans as caliphs, unifying books, law enforcement, callers to the ummah of wasathan, and mastering world civilization. The quality of information lies in the strength of the monotheistic dimension which is the highest peak of the Qur’anic maqâṣid. M. Quraish Shihab offers six diction which can be done by recipients of information in interacting on social media. Thus, it aims to usher in the knowledge and understanding of what is conveyed in carrying out human mission as caliph, enlightenment through oral and written, law enforcement, unifying mankind and the universe to the ummah of wasathan, and mastery of world civilization

Use Of Social Media

Social media as a communication tool has enabled governments around the world to interact with citizens for customer service, access to information and to direct community involvement needs. The trends around the world show recognition by governments that social media content may constitute records and should be managed accordingly. The literature shows that governments and organisations in other countries, particularly in Europe, have social media policies and strategies to guide the management of social media content, but there is less evidence among African countries. Thus the purpose of this paper is to examine the extent of usage of social media by the Botswana government in order to determine the necessity for the governance of liquid communication. Liquid communication here refers to the type of communication that goes easily back and forth between participants involved through social media. The ARMA principle of availability requires that where there is information governance, an organisation shall maintain its information assets in a manner that ensures their timely, efficient and accurate retrieval. The study adopted a qualitative case study approach where data were collected through documentary reviews and interviews among purposively selected employees of the Botswana government. This study revealed that the Botswana government has been actively using social media platforms to interact with its citizens since 2011 for increased access, usage and awareness of services offered by the government. Nonetheless, the study revealed that the government had no official documentation on the use of social media, and policies and strategies that dealt with the governance of liquid communication. This study recommends the governance of liquid communication to ensure timely, efficient and accurate retrieval when needed for business purposes.

Use Of Social Media

The use of social media platforms has over the years become a veritable tool for individuals, groups, institutions and corporate bodies for the promotion of health and wellness. In recent times, social media has become one of the most potent agents of the media through which health issues are addressed as well as generated and disseminated to different populations in society. The study was conducted to examine social media use and students’ health lifestyle modification in the University of Calabar, Nigeria. It sought to determine the extent to which students’ use of social media (Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp) influences the modification of their health-related lifestyles such as eating habits, sexual behaviour, cigarette and alcohol consumption, drug use and the engagement in fitness activities. The study adopted a randomized descriptive survey design and used a sample of 300 undergraduate students. The questionnaire was the main instrument used for collection of data while simple percentages and means were used to determine the difference between the expected mean of 2.50 and the observed means across various items in the questionnaire. The results showed that apart from Twitter, social media use by University of Calabar students has significantly influenced the modification of their health lifestyles. Since social media has become a veritable tool for the promotion of positive health lifestyle, effort should be made by government through the health sector to create more awareness among students and the entire population of social media users, on the health benefits accruing from use of social media.

Communication Habits

The scientific communication habits and practices of the new wave of Spanish researchers are analyzed based on the results of an international survey (2019). The results obtained from 100 participants support those previously obtained from interviews conducted between 2016 and 2018 in Spain under the Harbingers Project, and show similarities to and differences from those collected from the mentioned survey in other countries covered by the Project in its second phase. Spanish researchers have two contradictory faces: They are innovative in their perceptions but slightly less so in their practices regarding open access and the use of social media. However, these new attitudes and habits are motivated by a desire to promote their own work and gain recognition; In this sense, they are conservative. The competition in which they are immersed regarding the achievement of tenure and, therefore, the need to focus on their abilities that will be evaluated represent a limitation on enjoying the learning process and dedicating themselves to the practices of open science to which their generation is naturally prone. Resumen Se analizan los hábitos y prácticas de comunicación científica de la nueva ola de investigadores españoles a partir de los resultados de una encuesta de ámbito internacional (2019). Los resultados de un centenar de contribuciones confirman los obtenidos previamente en entrevistas realizadas entre 2016 y 2018 en España en el marco del Proyecto Harbingers, y ponen de manifiesto similitudes y diferencias con los resultados obtenidos de la encuesta mencionada en otros países cubiertos por el Proyecto en su segunda fase. Los investigadores españoles presentan dos caras contradictorias: Son innovadores en sus percepciones aunque no tanto en sus prácticas relativas al acceso abierto y al uso de las redes sociales. Sin embargo, sus actitudes y hábitos nuevos no son desinteresados, están motivados por promocionar el trabajo propio y conseguir el reconocimiento. En este sentido, se muestran conservadores. La competición en que se encuentran inmersos para conseguir un trabajo estable y, por tanto, la necesidad de focalizarse en los méritos que les van a ser evaluados les limita para poder disfrutar del proceso de aprendizaje y dedicarse a las prácticas de ciencia abierta a las que su generación se muestra proclive de forma natural.
