Title

Contexts of uninhibited online behaviour : flaming in social newsgroups on Usenet

Abstract

Recent research on uninhibited behaviour in computer-mediated communication (CMC) systems have suggested that flaming is social-context dependent and not a media characteristic of CMC. This study takes a closer look at the social context in which flaming occurs, which need not necessarily by developed online but, as well, can be the social, religious, and political background and affiliations of the participants
