sex lies or kittens investigating the use of Snapchat s self destructing messages
Financial Cryptography, 2014Co-Authors: Franziska Roesner, Brian T Gill, Tadayoshi KohnoAbstract:The privacy-related Snapchat smartphone application allows users to share time-limited photos or videos, which “disappear” after a specified number of seconds once opened. This paper describes the results of a user survey designed to help us understand how and why people use the Snapchat application. We surveyed 127 adult Snapchat users, finding that security is not a major concern for the majority of these respondents. We learn that most do not use Snapchat to send sensitive content (although up to 25 % may do so experimentally), that taking screenshots is not generally a violation of the sender’s trust but instead common and expected, that most respondents understand that messages can be recovered, and that security and privacy concerns are overshadowed by other influences on how and why respondents choose to use or not use Snapchat. Nevertheless, we find that a non-negligible fraction (though not a majority) of respondents have adapted or would adapt their behavior in response to understanding Snapchat’s (lack of) security properties, suggesting that there remains an opportunity for a more secure messaging application. We reflect on the implications of our findings for Snapchat and on the design of secure messaging applications.

examination of gender stereotypes and norms in health related content posted to Snapchat discover channels qualitative content analysis
Journal of Medical Internet Research, 2020Co-Authors: Kelsea Lebeau, Cary Carr, Mark HartAbstract:BACKGROUND: Snapchat has seen one of the most rapid, and unprecedented, growths in the history of social networking sites and social media with 3 billion Snapchats sent daily. In 2015, Snapchat introduced a new feature, Snapchat Discover, providing a unique way for publishers, such as magazines, to connect their content to Snapchat users. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate qualitatively the health-related content distributed among male-focused and female-focused Discover channels and to determine whether differences exist between the content posted to these channels. METHODS: Magazine Discover channels with male and female target audiences were identified based on the magazine's claimed audience and a search of Snapchat Discover's magazine publishers, resulting in the selection of two male-focused and two female-focused channels. Stories were collected daily from each of the selected channels during a 4-week period. Using the constant comparative method, 406 Discover stories were collected and analyzed. RESULTS: Differences in health content coverage existed between male- and female-focused channels. General health stories from male channels comprised 7.5% (10/134) of total stories compared with 22.8% (62/272) for female channels. Sexual health stories from male channels comprised 3.0% (4/134) of total stories compared with 18.8% (51/272) for female channels. Moreover, female-focused channels' content was more comprehensive. Female audiences were portrayed as being health information seekers, concerned with sexual health and male satisfaction, primarily responsible for contraception and pregnancy prevention, and less informed about sex. Male audiences were portrayed as being less likely to seek health information, obsessed with and driven by sex, and less concerned with sexual health. CONCLUSIONS: Understanding the content shared to social media is important, especially when considering the implications content may have for behavior. In terms of content, these findings suggest Discover channels appear to promote gender stereotypes and norms for health and sexual health through the information posted.

fear of missing out fomo and social media s impact on daily life and productivity at work do whatsapp facebook instagram and Snapchat use disorders mediate that association
Addictive Behaviors, 2020Co-Authors: Jon D Elhai, Dmitri Rozgonjuk, Cornelia Sindermann, Christian MontagAbstract:Abstract Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) is the tendency to experience anxiety over missing out on rewarding experiences of others. It has been associated with daily-life disruptions, such as distractions during driving. FoMO has also consistently been a predictor of Internet, smartphone, and social networks use disorders. In the current work, we investigated the association between FoMO and social media use's impact on daily-life and productivity at work. In addition, we aimed to determine whether WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat Use Disorders mediate that relationship. The effective sample comprised 748 German-speaking study participants from the general population (age M = 38.63, SD = 12.10; 336 men, 412 women) who took part in an online survey study. Bivariate analyses showed that severity of all social networks use disorders were positively correlated with FoMO and social media's negative impact on daily-life and productivity at work. Furthermore, controlling for age and gender, mediation analyses showed that out of all platforms, only Snapchat Use Disorder did not mediate the association between FoMO and social media's negative impact on daily-life and productivity at work. These results provide further evidence about FoMO's central role in digital technology use-related disorders.

the contribution of social media to body dissatisfaction eating disorder symptoms and anabolic steroid use among sexual minority men
Cyberpsychology Behavior and Social Networking, 2018Co-Authors: Scott Griffiths, Stuart B Murray, Isabel Krug, Siân A McleanAbstract:Abstract Social media has been associated with body dissatisfaction and eating disorder symptoms among young women and adolescent girls. However, despite notable evidence of susceptibility to body image pressures, it remains unknown whether these associations generalize to sexual minority men. A nationwide sample of 2,733 sexual minority men completed an online survey advertised to Australian and New Zealand users of a popular dating app. Participants answered questions about how frequently they used 11 different social media platforms in addition to questions about their dating app use, body image, eating disorder symptoms, and anabolic steroids. Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, and Snapchat were the most frequently used social media platforms. A pattern of small-sized and positive associations emerged between social media use and body dissatisfaction, eating disorder symptoms, and thoughts about using anabolic steroids. Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat evidenced the strongest associations. The association...

The Influence of Social Networking Site (SNS) Usage on Conflict in Intimate Relationships
'IUScholarWorks', 2020Co-Authors: Andrus, Cody G., Begin Ellie, Laaraj Mariem, Pritchard MaryAbstract:The purpose of this study is to examine the differences and compare relationship conflict between Snapchat and Instagram related jealous behaviors in romantic partners. One hundred thirty-four Psychology 101 students at Boise State University completed a self-report survey. Snapchat use was expected to cause significantly more relationship conflict compared to Instagram use. Individuals reported significantly more mate-guarding behaviors and fear of partner leaving using Snapchat versus Instagram, whereas there was no significant difference in spying behaviors between the two SNS. The majority of past research examining the effects of social networking sites (SNS) on romantic relationships has been focused largely on Facebook-related social media use. Current college students prefer Instagram and Snapchat over Facebook as means of SNS communication (Pew Research Center, 2019), thus introducing the need for studies focusing on these two SNS. Our findings support previous research that SNS use can introduce conflict into romantic relationships and that using Snapchat can introduce increased jealousy-related behaviors, more so than using Instagram

Results: Individuals who reported more spying on Snapchat were also more likely to engage in more “mate guarding” and were more likely to report that they feared their partner would leave them and that they had experienced conflict with their partners over their Snapchat usage. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that Snapchat is a significant factor in instigating jealousy in relationships. The social media platform enables men and women to surveillance their partners\u27 account by browsing their top friend list, Snap score, message history, and photos and video shared within the app. This may lead individuals to question their partners’ trust and overall commitment within the relationship
