[Air-L] Researches on dating applications

Wed Feb 20 09:27:50 PST 2019

Hi Ali, 

You should definitely join the Facebook research group. Apart from that, there are a coupe of review articles, here are two I would start with:

1. Wu, S., & Ward, J. (2018). The mediation of gay men's lives: A review on gay dating app studies. Sociology Compass, 12(2), e12560.
2. Choi, E. P. H., Wong, J. Y. H., & Fong, D. Y. T. (2017). The use of social networking applications of smartphone and associated sexual risks in lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender populations: A systematic review. AIDS care, 29(2), 145-155.

Regards,
Sam

Have a look at the dating and hook up app studies group on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/hookup.apps.studies/ Loads of great people to connect with there.  Also, I started a bibliography on this.  I intend to go back and update this year as I'm writing a book on this at the moment (I've not updated since 2014 - sorry!). The bibliography is accessible here and can be downloaded from Zotero too: http://benlight.me/hookupapps/.

Cheers,
Ben.

    Hi Ali,

    I would check out the work of Lik Sam Chan, a colleague of mine from USC,
    now a postdoc at UPenn. He's done a ton of work on sexuality and dating
    apps, including a dissertation on dating app users in Hong Kong. His
    website: https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fliksamchan.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cb.light%40salford.ac.uk%7C32d9afd879a349d87fdf08d6974adec4%7C65b52940f4b641bd833d3033ecbcf6e1%7C0%7C0%7C636862745149373515&sdata=xCrMhiIs%2Fd4eBGHzXO3V%2Fqwb%2BEGH5ha6baptnW3aZZ4%3D&reserved=0
