Elaboration Likelihood Model where in persuasion is much associated with our everyday lives. A persuasion could occur if readers or listeners as well also the viewers analyzes the message from what they read, listen or watch. It’s message that we read maybe remembered by us but if we didn’t read it may not. If we did not learn something, it is not possible to remember it and we will not be persuaded by it.

Example, when you are watching Netflix, there are some movies pop up on the home screen but because of the title and the picture of it you don’t want to watch it because it’s not pleasing as well. In every movie it must be understand the attitude of every viewers and movie that can easily to persuade.

Social Judgment Theory is the latitude of acceptance in which every position of it could be accepted or it may be rejected. The approaches of it analyzes the judgment decomposing the judgement process after judgements have been rendered. Thus, it attempts to explain how attitudes are expressed, judged, and modified.

Although, there are five basic principles example, in class if the teacher will ask questions there are possible different answers to answer to the teacher, it’s because they had different comparison points of anchor as well and people have different perspectives in life.

The Interactional View Theory is the systematic factors more important than personality traits and understanding and focuses on family communication which according to Paul Watzlawick.

He interrelated in the family as a system which describe to be relationship is a complex function. The importance of the relationship of the family is staying together whether poor or rich as well everyone under one roof has its problems that make it dysfunctional. The roles in which each family member plays makes up the status quo of the family.

That improving one’s self to reframe the role as a family. That if you reframe to yourself definitely each family member has to admit that they have flaws and work on reframing themselves in order for the entire to begin to have healthy communication.

I’m the kind of person that I really do not fun of posting anything in my account, aside when it was needed most and has something beautiful pictures to be posted on.

I posted pictures about the people who was important in my me which are my friends, myself who was smiling despite of problems I encountered, reminiscing the favorite food back when I was young, my sisters picture also the beautiful silhouette over me, the dogs I am taking care lastly, the love of my life that is always here when I needed him most.

To those pictures I posted, I put positive captions in relating to life in every picture. Thus, it helps me understand what life really is, that you need to fight every struggle because every curse we are encountering, there is always a bright after it. Somehow, I gave light to those peole who seen my posts as well and not to easily give up.

When we say unfriending, it is the removing of designated friends list in any social media networking sites. I have a hard time in choosing friends to unfriend, especially those close friends of mine. That feeling was so nervous knowing that he’s a close friend and I don’t know how explain it if he further know it that I unfriended him without his consent. I’ve chosen him not because I wanted to tease him but in order to also to observe what is his reaction if he found out already what I’ve did.

It’s just a matter of fact that, the 2 not so closed friends are exactly not so closed of mine. I’ve chosen them since I am not seeing them lately because of so busy I was also them.

On the other half, the other friends I unfriended was just I’ve seen on my friends list where in we’re not that just close like the other I unfriended first. Literally, I don’t know what could be the possible reaction if they knew this.

For it’s process, it makes me feel nervous for I know this was unexpected to happen. I never planned to choose who is the person I wanted to unfriend but it was an enjoyed experience to this activity, hoping and praying that they would get mad especially to those i have closed enough.

Relational dialectics is the junction of relation of the indivual person together. This theory focuses the opposing disagreement ot denial in a relationship which consist in many ways. The concept of this theory in philosophicl is it mirrors the problem and struggles of two people or various people in relationship.

Example, you met a new person on your class which happen that it was a transferee. He was nice, jolly, kind and generous person, since, you always been a sitmate to him in class, you are easily attached with each other. From time to time, the closeness of your relationship comes into many struggles as well, the closeness before is different from now because over time, you know more with each other and there you know the true nature of each other. From best friends before to a civil friendship now.

Therefore, in the situation there is a pressure in the relationship you build, the possibility of the relational dialectics would be contentment or separateness of the said relationship. But, if it is toxic sometimes, it is better to give up or to let go of it.

Communication Privacy Management Theory explains the regulating disclosure of a person, which also protects the private information of people involved. The theory explicates how people make decisions about revealing their own private information and any private information that is entrusted to them. The theory also considers the impact of serving, a confidant and the ramifications of privacy turbulence on relationships with others.

Example, the two girls who was been best friends since they were in grade 1 up until now graduated in college already. But there came the 1 girl find another best friend since they were not seeing each other for they work. Even if they we’re not that close as before the social penetration between them or the shared secrets are still protected.

The Structure of Online Networks Mirrors those in the Offline

Summary

This article is the usage of data on frequencies of bi-directional relationship in two Facebook datasets and a Twitter dataset use to use to create ego-centric social networks. The online datasets, the scaling ratio for the various layers identified by the analyzes the online datasets confirm the layered structure which found in offline face-to-face social networks.

In Facebook dataset 1, the dataset has been widely used for social network analysis. The dataset represents only subsample of the original Facebook regional network. The analysis which is consider only egos with an average of more than 10 interactions per month, thus selecting “socially active people” since they are particularly relevant for our analysis, and dis-card inactive profiles.

Facebook dataset #2, similarly to Facebook dataset #1, was downloaded in 2009 exploiting the Facebook regional network feature. Also in this case, we select “socially relevant users”, taking into consideration only users who had at least 10 interactions per month. After this pre-processing the dataset contains 5,761 egos and 107,029 social relationships.

Twitter dataset follows links between users to build a network of connected profiles. Twitter followers can interact with each other through the mention and reply functions that allow direct communication between users. Besides direct communication, all the tweets are automatically broadcast to all the users’ followers. Tweets can be retweeted or forwarded by users to all their followers.

Thus, these networks to determine whether they have the same kind of layered structure as has been found in offline face-to-face networks (which have a distinctively scaled structure with successively inclusive layers at 5, 15, 50 and 150 alters). The two Facebook datasets are best described by a four-layer structure and the Twitter dataset by a five-layer structure. The absolute sizes of these layers and the mean frequencies of contact with alters within each layer match very closely the observed values from offline networks. In addition, all three datasets reveal the existence of an innermost network layer at ∼1.5 alters.

Online Social Networks Sites and the Concept of Social Capital

Summary

This article is the connection between Social Networking Sites and the economy. For the past decade years of social network sites Has grown effectively, SNSs have been created, but today, Facebook is by far the largest in terms of number of users. SNS, meaning that connections that might have otherwise faded away over time can remain vital.
Of course, not all SNS use is positive. People can say hurtful things about others, predators
can stalk unwitting users, individuals can lose their jobs or face other penalties when they
post inappropriate content, and companies can invade users privacy in their efforts to
market products and services using data from SNSs. Yet, our review has demonstrated the
potential for positive outcomes, and suggested usage strategies that may yield benefits.

SNS use was related to bridging and bonding social capital. However, there is these “connection strategies”
• Maintaining reflected use of the SNS to connect with existing close ties. It was
measured by a series of items asking to what extent respondents were browsing
their close friends’ profiles, contacting them through Facebook, “friending” them,
and meeting them face‐to‐face.
• Information seeking reflected use of Facebook to learn more about and connect with
people who were not close friends, but with whom respondents had some form of
offline connection.
• Initiating reflected an online to offline pattern of connection, involving use of
Facebook to connect with strangers or meet new people.

SNSs are different from other types of online communities, in that, in most
SNSs, users are asked to reveal personal identities and disclose considerable information
about themselves. However, this disclosure, while raising concerns about privacy, also
appears to be essential for the functioning of the site and for enabling the kinds of
relationship developments that result in bridging and bonding social capital benefits.

SNS use is associated with increases in users’ perceptions of both their bridging
and bonding social capital, with generally greater increases in bridging social capital.
Users appear to be primarily connecting with people they already know or have some form
of offline connection on social network sites, and this pattern of use is more likely to result
in higher perceived social capital than if users rely on SNSs to initiate contacts with new
people.

Reflection on Both Articles

Imagine not using your SNS through a week, which is you don’t know if you could possibly do. If I had describe the lifw without social media before was silent. You communicate by the person you want to talk to only face-to-face, or if it’s far away you could only communicate with him/her via sending letters which is slow form of communication, and even sending messages via fax, also, pricy and not everyone can afford.

Social Networking Sites are scattered nowadays which is growing until it was created especially the famous sites Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, etc…
Social media is one of the common ways of communication. It is growing very rapidly, changes and affects each person in a different way, or ways. Some may argue that social media has a bad influence on children and young adults, and that it negatively effects their brains, character, or personalities, while most people see that the social media has a more positive effect on them than a negative one.
Social media has helped many people around the world to connect, or re-connect, with each other, easily. Social media is basically the new way of keeping in touch with everything and everyone, and of even strengthening bonds between each and everyone.

Social media platforms have revolutionized the way we communicate. Before, the rise of the Internet, we can see evidence of the drive to shape both private communications and mass media into platforms for social connection.

CMC or Computer Mediated Communication can simply be put as a transaction between two or more network computer like chartroom, emails, SNS (Social Networking Sites), text messages and more. The role played by the new media has increased and is always on the rise, transforming every single life that it touches effecting the individual, but sometimes it has positive and negative effects.

Thus, the connection of this two articles which is both based on communication through online by using Social Media Network Sites or with a use of computer, devices and even the Internet itself. Sometimes, society builds the connection in social networks between and among people is a reflection of the reality. Social Networking Sites can be a great way to make connections to other people with related interests and goals in other words, Social networking can provide opportunities for new relationships as well as strengthening existing relationships

The social information theory, focuses on non-verbal communication and uses a medium in order to develop an interpersonal communication. On this theory it has the to be an interrelated to computer mediated theory since there must a medium needed in order to communicate.

Example is you badly need to interview of a person, since he’s busy and sometimes he was been always out oh he’s house. In order to communicate with him, you send your letter to his email also you chat him and since it was not face-to-face you expect a delayed response an because he qas a busy person.

It also adapts the absence of the face-to-face conversation.Since social information theory is an online communication, the disadvantage of it is delayed response and has a prompt response.
