[4eyes] CFP Interaction and Exchange in Social Media @ SocInfo

[Saiph Savage]

Hi Lab,
The deadline for DYAD @ SocInfo, Interaction and Exchange in Social Media,
<http://dyad.di.unito.it> is coming up!

Please consider submitting a paper. All accepted papers will be published
with the conference proceedings of SocInfo which are published through
springer.  We also have the participation of many industry folks, and I
think it could be exciting to discuss with them your research, or even use
it as an opportunity to spark collaborations with them. Invited speakers
include Cristian Danescu-Niculescu-Mizil (Max Planck Institute SWS), Bruno
Gonçalves (Aix-Marseille Université), and Carlos Diuk-Wasser (Facebook,
Inc.)

The workshop and the conference are in Barcelona this coming November.
Remember that November is a great time to visit Barcelona, and both the
workshop and the conference will have top-class keynote speakers and very
affordable registration fees.
Please forward  to whoever you think could be interested in participating.

A great deal of work has used computational methods to investigate the
intensity, structure, topic and sentiment of social interactions. But
neither information alone nor structure in isolation can be considered
fully responsible for the complexity of social life, whether on- or
offline. Online interactions can be conceptualized as a social exchange,
and also as a process through which meaning emerges through dialogue
between the two partners, i.e. a dyad. We aim for the DYAD workshop to
examine online interactions from a number of rich perspectives.

Invited speakers include Cristian Danescu-Niculescu-Mizil (Max Planck
Institute SWS), Bruno Gonçalves (Aix-Marseille Université), and Carlos
Diuk-Wasser (Facebook, Inc.)

The workshop welcomes submissions on topics related to computational
approaches to the study of social interaction, relevant to fields as
diverse as social psychology, behavioral economics, sociolinguistics as
well as computational linguistics, web science, and network science.
Examples of relevant submissions include, but are not limited to, the
following topics:

- detection of social expectations and norms
- status relations and power imbalances
- detection and measurement of social support, such as in critical
situations related to illness, bullying or grieving
- self-disclosure, turn-taking, deference in interpersonal communication
- identity
- topic development and change in online conversations
- emotion dynamics in conversation thread
- social dynamics in comment thread (politics, news, interest-based
communities)
- development of language and the self through social interaction
- language variation across communities and social relationships (e.g.
distinguishing friends from colleagues, etc.)
- persuasive language
- pragmatics of language
