Globalization, active internalization and progress in technology have intensified the impact that American English has over national languages. The can be seen borrowing a big amount of computer-mediated communication (CMC) lexis from language. processes mentioned need description explanation which makes article relevant.

Self-disclosure taking place in computer-mediated communication (CMC) is generally associated with enhanced well-being because it evokes a greater sense of connectedness. It has been established that the magnitude benefits reaped from online self-disclosure conditional on social anxiety (under lens poor-get-richer vs. rich-get-richer hypotheses) or audience size. What remains to be understood w...

For a long time, dialogue analysis has separated spoken language from written language. This dichotomy is valid in many cases as it is mostly parallel to the distinction of synchronous and asynchronous communication with the associated affinity to graphic and acoustic media, respectively. During the present decade, many forms of computer mediated communication (CMC) have become widespread. With...

This article examines the communication of text-based synchronous online discussion (chat) participants during the process of information sharing. It addresses the communicational constraints imposed by the computer-mediated communication (CMC) channel on participants’ expression of interpersonal and affective stances, analyzes the mechanisms participants employed to overcome these constraints,...

Communication structure is a way of improving the effectiveness of group communications by imposing rules or procedures of communications. Delphi is a communication structure which has been widely used to collect ideas and opinions from temporarily and geographically dispersed experts. A new approach in Delphi implementation using asynchronous Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) is developed....

Based on traditional theories of interpersonal relationship development and on the hyperpersonal communication theory, this study examined predictors of relationship satisfaction for individuals involved in online romantic relationships. One hundredfourteen individuals (N1⁄4114) involved in online romantic relationships, and who had only engaged in computer-mediated communication (CMC) with the...

A variety of field trials have been conducted at NJIT in the past few years to demonstrate the utility of a Delphilike approach to promoting asynchronous class wide collaboration. These utilized the Social Decision Support System (SDSS) originally developed as a Computer Mediated Communication (CMC) system for large group decision support. This paper provides an overview of these studies and th...

Organizations that make use of computer information systems (CIS) are prototypical complex adaptive systems (CAS). This paper shows how an approach from Complexity Science, exploratory agent-based modeling (ABM), can be used to study the impact of two different modes of use of computer-mediated communication (CMC) on organizational culture (OC) and performance. The ABM includes stylized represe...

This study explores the mediating effect of two aspects of group development (workgroup cohesion and conflict management) on five aspects of satisfaction (solution satisfaction, solution confidence, interaction process satisfaction, perceived decision quality, and level of teamwork). The independent variable, interaction mode, has two treatments: mixed-mode, a combination of faceto-face (FtF) a...

Brands are increasingly using emoji in their computer-mediated communication (CMC). However, research on how consumers perceive such use, and the determinants of those perceptions, is scarce results may be inconsistent. In a cross-sectional study ( N = 540 ) we examined appropriate participants consider...
