Synopsis
This volume focuses on the ethics of internet and social networking research exploring the challenges faced by researchers making use of social media and big data in their research. The internet, the world wide web and social media - indeed all forms of online communications - are attractive fields of research across a range of disciplines. They offer opportunities for methodological initiatives and innovations in research and easily accessed, massive amounts of primary and secondary data sources. This collection examines the new challenges posed by data generated online, explores how researchers are addressing those ethical challenges, and provides rich case studies of ethical decision making in the digital age.

Newspapers & Magazines
Social science researchers from the UK and Australia provide 10 chapters on the ethical aspects of internet-mediated and social media research. They address ethical challenges of specific research issues, social media platforms, or approaches, particularly the organized ethics review process; users' views of ethics in social media research; the roles of researchers and participants; Twitter as a data source; informed consent; the use of Tinder; publishing and sharing social media research data; an ethics framework for working with social media data; and recommendations for improving ethical standards. The volume originated in the formation of an online community of practice called "New Social Media, New Social Science?" in 2011. -- Annotation (c)2018 * (protoview.com) *
