Computer Mediated Communication

進化していくCMCを説明するtheoryが欲しいよね、という話

13 major & minor theoriesを紹介している

The next set of theories reflects the ways in which communicators adapt to or exploit the cue limitations of CMC systems to achieve or surpass face-to-face levels of affinity.

そっちに進もうとしがち、という性質を前提としている？

The chapter ends with a few notes of concern about trends in contemporary CMC research.

These trends represent understandable developments given the nature of the field, yet they also present potential problems in the further development of knowledge in certain domains. These concerns involve the role of face-to-face comparisons in technology-focused research,

the potential impact of new technologies on earlier CMC theories, and the implications of multimo-dality in relationships (i.e., how to learn about the usage of a variety of communication systems within any single relationship).

Cues-Filtered-Out Theories

As numerous reviews have reflected, Culnan and Markus (1987) coined the term cues-filtered-out to describe a group of theories sharing the premise that CMC has no nonverbal cues and therefore occludes the accomplishment of social functions that typically involve those cues.

なんか全体的にすごい限られたCMCを前提とした議論な気がする

Despite these pronouncements about its overarching superiority as an organizing model for the entire field, the SIDE model seems now to be taking a more appropriately limited place in CMC research. This change appears to be due to uncertainties about the components of the model itself, empirical "competitions" in which social and interpersonal components both appear, and new media forms that alternately extend or restrict the scope of SIDE's domain.

Signaling theory, Donath reviews (2007), shows "why certain signals are reliable and others are not. For a signal to be reliable, the costs of deceptively producing the signal must outweigh the benefits."
