The article aims to outline bloggings as a complex social phenomenon and identify the current role of blogs in virtual reality. The literature review revealed that the evolving paradigm of civilizational growth has led to a hybrid environment, which combines the aspects of physical world and virtual reality artefacts, resulting in a unique media landscape, significantly impacting sociocultural and communicative dynamics. However, the field lacks studies on typical features of blogosphere, such as its inherent openness, fostering informal communication, intention to both monetization and self-expression. To address the study’s objectives the research adopts an integrative interdisciplinary approach, including socio-philosophical and semiotic cultural studies, theory of computer communication, network and Internet discourse studies to use data from various fields of humanitarian knowledge. It is concluded that originally created as online diaries, currently blogs as a diverse media platform demonstrate several unique features, including high personalization, audience feedback capabilities, constant user engagement with various types of information (verbal, audial, visual). These characteristics positioned blogs as key contributors to the growth of virtual sociality, leading to the emergence of a new type of society characterized by heightened human sensory experiences and the development of new empathetic models and behavioral attitudes. A notable sign of these changes is that the audience’s attention has shifted from professional media institutions to individual bloggers, who are increasingly adopting media-like behaviors. The current research adopts an interdisciplinary approach, merging socio-philosophical and semiotic cultural studies, as well as with theory of computer communication, network and Internet discourse studies. It also employs methods of Internet linguistics and the principles of pragmalinguistics; the axiological method helps to identify value-based sociocultural guidelines within the framework of globalization.

Examining the influence of avatar identification on sharing intention in the metaverse: The mediating role of immersion and moderating effect of perceived social distance (2025)

Авторы: Jaehyuk Choi, Youngkeun Choi

This study aims to investigate the impact of avatar identification on the intention to share by examining the mediating role of user immersion and the moderating effect of perceived social distance. For this, we collected 228 higher education students in South Korea through a survey and used hierarchical regression with SPSS 24.0. In the results, first, it showed that participants who perceived higher levels of similarity identification, wishful identification, and embodied presence in their avatars in the metaverse platform were more immersed in their avatars. Second, participants who perceived greater embodied presence in their avatars had a stronger intention to share their avatars through immersion. Finally, the positive relationship between perceived embodied presence and immersion was more significant for participants in metaverse platforms with higher perceived social distance compared to those with lower perceived social distance. This study is the first to examine the integral model of avatar identification factors in the metaverse platform. And, this study’s results show the mechanism by which avatar identification enhances the intention to share.

Monitoring the development of community radio: A comprehensive bibliometric analysis (2000–2024) (2025)

Авторы: Amit Verma, Preeti Singh, Abhishika Sharma, Tanu Dang

In order to promote cultural variety, encourage local involvement, and provide a voice to underrepresented groups, community radio stations (CRS) have become essential venues. Using information from 339 publications in the English language indexed in the Scopus database between 2000 and 2024, this bibliometric analysis attempts to map the research landscape on CRS methodically over the previous 20 years. This timeframe was chosen to capture significant developments in community radio stations, including policy shifts, technological advancements, and the rise of CRS movements in regions like South Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The analysis pinpoints important patterns in the field’s publication output, research hotspots, significant writers, and foundational publications. The data shows a consistent rise in scholarly interest, especially concerning the contribution of CRS to media democratization, community empowerment, and social transformation. A thematic analysis reveals recurrent research themes, such as CRS’s role as an alternative medium, how it affects local development, and the difficulties it faces in maintaining operations. Citation analysis reveals patterns of scholarly collaboration by highlighting the most significant publications and the growth of research networks. This study highlights how CRS has influenced the media environment and how they might support community-based projects. This work advances theoretical knowledge of CRS’s development and continued significance by thoroughly analyzing the scholarly discourse on the subject.

How young consumers in China perceive femvertising: A qualitative study (2025)

Авторы: Fei Fan, Fangyu Luo, Kara Chan

“Femvertising”, advertising that adopts the perspective of females, has become a popular global marketing strategy. Some Chinese brands are adopting it in their marketing communication. However, studies on audience response to femvertising mainly focus on Western consumers. Relevant research studies, particularly those with young consumers, are still scarce in China. This qualitative study aims to fill the research gap and examine young consumers’ responses to femvertising and its perceived effectiveness. Focus group interviews were conducted in March 2023 with three groups comprising female university students, male university students, and working females aged 20 to 25. The results showed that participants paid much attention to the advertising execution style and storytelling skills of femvertising. Liking of a specific feminist advertisement would enhance the brand image. However, a brand’s historical portrayal of female influences the communication effectiveness of its femvertising. An abrupt adoption of femvertising creates doubts and reservations. Female and male participants had different attitudes toward femvertising. As expected, female participants showed more appreciation of femvertising than male participants.
