Publication in the International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction

Dr. Cornelia Sindermann, Research Group Leader of the Computational Digital Psychology Team within IRIS/IRIS3D, recently published an Article in the International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction. In this transdisciplinary study, Dr. Sindermann and her colleagues conducted interviews with experts from science and industry in order to extract pivotal performance criteria of social media platforms as well as to gain insights into potential modifications to social media in order to overcome shortcomings of platforms that are currently debated. Properly operationalized, both the criteria and suggested modifications hold the potential to facilitate negotiations among users, (mainstream) social media companies, and governments to transform social media in line with European standards.
