Anonymity presentation with research into computer mediated communication

3.  1) Not anonymous – Full name,
area they live, where they work.
 2) Mostly not anonymous – Can
use full name but not required.
 3) Mostly Anonymous – Runs on an
alias and has no personal details

5.  Damn, I already can't believe that
just months ago we were so
uninformed about Pluto. New
Horizons revealed such incredible
things about it, and it really
sparked a lot of interest in space
exploration. Then shortly after
that, when scientists discovered
evidence of flowing water on Mars,
that just got people even more
excited about planets and space
exploration/space in general. It's
an awesome time for really anyone
who finds this stuff fascinating.

6.  Just ordered my 2 Halloween

the fact that it's a widely accepted

social behavior and allow you to be
your ‘true self’

19.  “computer-mediated
communication seems to comprise
some of the same conditions that
are important for
deindividuation±anonymity,
reduced self-regulation, and
reduced self-awareness”(Kiesler,
Siegel, McGuire, p1126)

20.  “compared participants' levels of
self-awareness (using a four-item
questionnaire) after they had
discussed using computers or face-
to-face. They found that `users of
computer-mediated
communication reported greater
private self-awareness and
marginally lower public self-
awareness than subjects
communicating face-to-
face'(Matheson and Zanna,p. 228)

21.  … “low public self-aware
individuals interacting via
computer felt fewer inhibitions and
therefore were not concerned
about responding more negatively
toward the social context.”
(Matheson and Zanna, 1988,p.
229)

22.  “On the other hand, anonymity of
the self to others (i.e. lack of
identi®ability) allows `one to
express one's true mind, or
authentic self, unfettered by
concerns of self-presentation”
(Spears & Lea, p. 430)
 My primary basis of research

23.  “Visual anonymity is the most
common level experienced on a
regular basis by users online,
namely any situation where one’s
physical characteristics are hidden
even in cases where participants
are otherwise known to one
another. Here, there is no direct
visual feedback during interaction.
Simply removing visual cues has a
significant positive effect on self-
disclosure.” Joinson, p1126).)
