[AISWorld] Call for Papers: AMCIS 2020 Mini-track on Social Media Analytics

[Nevo, Dorit]

Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS'20)
August 12-16, 2020
Salt Lake City, Utah
Track: Social Computing
Minitrack: Social Media Analytics

DESCRIPTION:

As social media become standard communication and collaboration platforms, large amounts of data are generated and publically available on various platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, blogs, wikis and more. As with other forms of big data a key question to address is how this data can be used to learn about individual and social behaviors, how predictions can be made on various indicators based on social media data, and how can we apply these data to impact platform design and organizational performance. For this mini track on social media analytics we are interested in high quality empirical and conceptual work that addresses these and other related questions.

SUGGESTED TOPICS
- Sources of data in social media
- Data extraction approaches for social media data
- Methods and applications of text analytics
- Organizational impact of social media analytics
- Applications of social media analytics
