eeg :: some background
Is MySpace associated with frivolity?
Is connecting with friends on Facebook
really associated with feelings of
intimacy?
Is reading a Twitter feed similar or
dissimilar to reading a book or
magazine article?
To what extent do people find personal
blogs personal?

results :: eeg
• Equal to other media in terms of addictive, interesting, useful, frivolous
• Tells less of a story (midline, lateral, peripheral electrodes)• Less personal (midline, lateral, peripheral electrodes)

study :: implications, suggestions, and limitations
Limitations• Only one form of social
networking/media
• Limited subject population
• Can we believe the EEG
results?

study :: implications, suggestions, and limitations
Limitations• Only one form of social
networking/media
• Limited subject population
• Can we believe the EEG
results?
• Apples to oranges?
Opportunities• Compare online media
• Other subject populations
(teens v. 30’s?)
• Corroborate with other
physiology
• Expand into real-time
capture of physiology
