Vast numbers of organizations and individuals communicate every day by sending messages over social networks. These messages, however, are subject to change as they propagate through the network. This paper attempts to calculate the distortion of a message as it propagates in a social network with a scale free topology, and to establish a remedial process in which a node will correct the distor...

Time distortion in individuals with social anxiety has been defined as the seemingly slower passage of time in social situations and is related to both arousal and valence. Consequently, adaptive behavior is disrupted and interpersonal situations avoided. We explored the effects of valence and arousal on time distortion in individuals with social anxiety. Participants were assigned to two group...

Online social networks are becoming a major growth point of the internet, as individuals, companies and governments constantly desire to interact with one another, the ability of the internet to deliver this networking capabilities grows stronger. In this paper, we looked at the structure and components of the member profile and the challenges of privacy issues faced by individuals and governme...

We argue that the disproportionate attention accorded the struggles of the sixties has created a stylized image of social movements that threatens to distort our understanding of popular contention, not only in earlier periods and in nondemocratic contexts, but also in the contemporary U.S. This stylized view tends to equate movements with (a) disruptive protest in public settings, (b) loosely ...

We introduce a certain subclass of multivalent analytic functions by making use of the principle of subordination between these functions and Cătas operator. Such results as subordination and superordination properties, convolution properties, inclusion relationships, distortion theorems, inequality properties, and sufficient conditions for multivalent starlikeness are provide. The results pres...

Given the demand for authentic personal interactions over social media, it is unclear how much firms should actively try and engage with consumers using social media. We investigate empirically what drives the degree of engagement that healthcare organizations generate by actively managing their social media presence. We find that active management of social media is more likely to generate inc...

In this paper, a subclass N(λ, α, A, B) of analytic functions is introduced, which is a generalized class of non-Bazilevič functions. The subordination relations, inclusion relations, distortion theorems and inequality properties are discussed by applying differential subordination method.
