[Air-L] Research on Content Creators?

[Denise N. Rall]

Yosem -

This is a bit of a long shot, but in 2007 Sandra Harrison was working on this topic -

Harrison, S., Ed. (2007). 'Transgressions, miscommunication and flames:
problematic incidents in email discussions' in Mia Consalvo & Caroline
Haythornthwaite, (Eds.) AoIR Internet Annual Volume 4, New York: Peter
Lang, pp 105-117.

As I recall, her research pointed to a similar statistic, that 5% of the people produced 95% of the flaming. Her paper might have citations to similar percentages in other contexts.

Someone at AoIR presented on this topic regarding email contributors, I cannot recall when or where I heard them, hopefully they will come forward!

Cheers, Denise
