User Access

This chapter discusses a model that allows the user to access social networking sites through login using smart phone-based biometric authentication. Currently, social networking websites permit the user to access their page through login and some sites provide auto fill system to login into users account through browser by permit. The browser saves the password in password protected space and automatically auto fills the password to access the account by user. This facility is not highly reliable due to the auto fill system for laptop users. When someone uses the laptop of others and visits any website, the auto fill system opens the content with saved password. Secondly, elderly people have problems logging into today's websites. To remember the password for every account is very difficult for elderly people. This chapter describes a model for security and authenticity. Authors used a hybrid model with android as the application with fingerprint authentication and chrome extension as the auto fill process for user access.

<p>Online Social Networking (OSN) websites have been growing fast and their success is decided by customers’ satisfaction. User satisfaction can be measured using a number of popular frameworks such as SERVQUAL, SERVPERF, SiteQual, and WebQual. These frameworks are often used as guidelines when designing, implementing, and assessing quality of websites in general and can also be used to measure the quality of online social networking websites. Besides, there are additional factors that should be taken into consideration when assessing user satisfaction such as demographic differences and cultural differences. The present research project aims to investigate and test the linkage between culture and user satisfaction on the online social networking websites. This is achieved by conducting an analysis on the basis of a survey in two different countries – New Zealand and Vietnam. The research project’s principal component analysis follows Hofstede’s six cultural dimensions and the modified framework of assessing online social networking sites quality conducted by Rizavi, Ali, and Rizavi in 2011. The results suggest that users’ quality expectation of Social Networking Sites (SNS) in New Zealand and in Vietnam may be influenced by cultural differences.</p>

The Impact

The pandemic of COVID-19 has arrested the life of 7.8 million people living on this earth. However, some people are more vulnerable to the risk of this deadly virus. The frailty of senior citizens put them at the top of this list. The past 6 months have not only presented a threat to their physical health but to mental health also. Although lockdown was necessary to check the spread of the coronavirus it culminated in an exponential rise in the problems of loneliness, anxiety, fear, helplessness, and depression. The present paper reviews the role of social networking sites, apps, and other digital platforms in saving and enriching the lives of the elderly, especially those who spent the lockdown alone and were devoid of a regular support system due to unavailability of transport and administrative restrictions on the movement of people. It also analyzes the efficiency of the virtual world in reducing their anxiety of being alone by connecting them with others and also make them feel empowered. The review is based on the online data collected about the insurgence in the percentage of elderly people using such platforms, recent studies analyzing the effects of the COVID 19 pandemic on senior citizens. Besides this personal telephonic discussions were conducted with some elderly people who spent their lockdown alone in their homes. The study was primarily focused on three objectives. Firstly it attempts to understand the ways in which senior citizens made use of social networking sites and various digital platforms for managing life better. Secondly, it analyses the process of adopting technology, and finally, it examined the width and depth of the impact technology created in their life and also the permanence of this change. The analysis clearly suggests an increase in the digital life of elderly people. The process moved in distinct stages from utter confusion to relative ease in using technology, thereby significantly reducing the loneliness, and bringing relatively stable change in the way they lead their life.

AbstractIn this survey, we review different text mining techniques to discover various textual patterns from the social networking sites. Social network applications create opportunities to establish interaction among people leading to mutual learning and sharing of valuable knowledge, such as chat, comments, and discussion boards. Data in social networking websites is inherently unstructured and fuzzy in nature. In everyday life conversations, people do not care about the spellings and accurate grammatical construction of a sentence that may lead to different types of ambiguities, such as lexical, syntactic, and semantic. Therefore, analyzing and extracting information patterns from such data sets are more complex. Several surveys have been conducted to analyze different methods for the information extraction. Most of the surveys emphasized on the application of different text mining techniques for unstructured data sets reside in the form of text documents, but do not specifically target the data sets in social networking website. This survey attempts to provide a thorough understanding of different text mining techniques as well as the application of these techniques in the social networking websites. This survey investigates the recent advancement in the field of text analysis and covers two basic approaches of text mining, such as classification and clustering that are widely used for the exploration of the unstructured text available on the Web.

This article examines on the one hand whether the remembrance of perceived paternal and maternal rejection affects positively the search for social support on social networking websites and on the other hand to what extent the high quality of a friendship affects the search for social support on these websites. Data were collected from 200 Greek university students and were analyzed with binary logistic regression model which was used to predict the outcome ‘’Search for social support on social networking websites’’. The scores of the following three questionnaires; (α) Perceived parental remembrance of the rejection was estimated via the Short form of the Adult Parental Acceptance and Rejection Questionnaire (PARQ) (24 items), (b) The friendship quality was evaluated with the Adult Friendship Questionnaire (AFQ) (27 items), (c) The need to seek support was measured with the questionnaire Attraction to Computer-Mediated Social Support (33 items), were included as predictive variables in this model. Enter method was also used. The final model was able to define 15.6% till 21.4% of the variance, while it was able to successfully predict in total 69.1% of the cases. It has been proved that the increase of friendship quality entails reduction of the possibilities of seeking social support through social networking sites (OR 0.965). Present study is thought to be important because to the best of our knowledge it is the first study that examines students’ perceptions with regard to family relationships and social networking websites
