"SummaryAuthoritative and illuminating, this book demonstrates how we reveal the secrets of our character through the disclosures we make about ourselves in the online world. The author expertly explores whether online information about people, derived from their search patterns, personal detail disclosures and the language they use when posting text, are all related to their personalities. The Internet era has given rise to an enormous explosion of data that is refreshed daily on a massive scale. The growth of online social network sites has created opportunities for more and more people to reveal intimate details about themselves and their lives. While some of these disclosures are consciously made, other, more subtle forms of person profiling can be produced by examining patterns in our online behavior and the language we use in our online posts. As this book will show, techniques have been developed which enable researchers to build detailed personality profiles of people without their awareness, by examining online behaviour and psycholinguistic analysis. Establishing how unlocking the full potential of 'big data' is dependent on having the right analytical tools that can be applied speedily and cost-effectively on a massive scale, the author also asks how powerful these methods are, and can they really be used to influence us in the way their critics fear and proponents claim. Explaining how we reveal the secrets of our character through the disclosures we make about ourselves in the online world, this is fascinating reading for students and academics in psychology, linguistics, computer science, and related areas."

"Social distancing yang diterapkan untuk mitigasi penyebaran COVID-19 menyebabkan terjadinya pengurangan interaksi tatap muka antar individu. Hal ini menyebabkan beralihnya pertemuan langsung menjadi pertemuan virtual, sehingga terjadi peningkatan dalam penggunaan aplikasi video conference untuk berkomunikasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi kepuasan dan niat keberlanjutan penggunaan aplikasi video conference pada masa yang akan datang, termasuk saat era new normal maupun setelah pandemi COVID-19 berakhir. Penelitian ini merupakan modifikasi dari expectation confirmation model (ECM), model yang terbukti dapat menyelidiki niat berkelanjutan sistem informasi. Responden terdiri dari 556 pengguna aplikasi video conference dalam tiga bulan terakhir. Analisis dilakukan dengan metode partial least square SEM dengan SmartPLS 3. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa confirmation (konfirmasi ekspektasi), perceived ease of use (kemudahan), perceived usefulness (kebermanfaatan), service quality (kualitas layanan), way to express affection (mengekspresikan kedekatan), dan system quality (kualitas sistem) berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap satisfaction (kepuasan). Kemudian, perceived usefulness (kebermanfaatan) dan satisfaction (kepuasan) berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap continuance intention (keberlanjutan) penggunaan aplikasi video conference. Penelitian ini dapat membantu penelitian sebelumnya untuk menganalisis faktor yang memengaruhi kepuasan dan niat keberlanjutan penggunaan aplikasi video conference.

This has led to the switch from direct meetings to virtual meetings, leading to an increase in the use of applications for video conferencing to communicate. The goal of this study is to explore the factors affecting satisfaction and the decision to continue using video conferencing applications in the future, even after the COVID-19 pandemic ends during the new normal period. This research is a modification to the expectation confirmation model (ECM), a model that has been proven to analyze the sustainable intention of information systems. The respondents consisted of 556 users of video conferencing applications in the last three months. The analysis was performed using the partial least square SEM method with SmartPLS 3. The findings of this study show that confirmation, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, service quality, way to express affection, and system quality have a positive and significant effect on satisfaction.
