Social Q&A sites such as Yahoo! Answers and Naver Knowledge-iN have become a viable method for information seeking and sharing on the Web. Considering their immense popularity and growing concerns about their validity as information sources, questions about the credibility of the information provided on social Q&As are timely. Therefore, this paper summarizes recent research on credibility related to the social Q&A context, identifies research gaps, and presents a research agenda for future research to advance this newly developing area.

The main goal of this study is to investigate how to route a question to some relevant users who have interest in the topic of the question based on users' topic interest. In order to assess users' topic interest, archived question-answer pairs in the community were used to identify latent topics in the chosen categories using LDA. Then, these topic models were used to identify users' topic interest. Furthermore, the topics of newly submitted questions were analyzed using the topic models in order to recommend relevant answerers to the question. This study introduces the process of topic modeling to investigate relevant users based on their topic interest.

This study suggests a framework which extracts features of collective intelligence from social Q&A community sites and takes advantage of those features upon vertical search for domain specific knowledge or information retrieval. One source of collective intelligence on the internet is the question and answer(Q&A) data available from many Q&A sites. Vertical search is focused on searching special areas or specific domains. This paper proposes a framework for extending the relevant terms by using Q&A information connected with query that the user wants to retrieve, and then applies them to specific domain field that requires professional and detailed knowledge.

국내에서 온라인 커뮤니티는 1990년대 말 인터넷과 개인 PC의 급속한 보급으로 인해 대중화되기 시작했다. 커뮤니티는 이용자 간 활발한 커뮤니케이션을 기반으로 구축되고 있으며 이러한 커뮤니케이션은 일상적인 언어적 맥락을 바탕으로 구성된다. 이러한 커뮤니티의 내용 분석은 연구자의 직관에 의해 수행되기 마련이나 연구대상의 양이 많아질 경우 연구자의 직관만으로는 이를 분석하는데 제약이 있을 수 있다. 네트워크 분석은 이와 같은 문제점을 해결 할 수 있는 방법 중 하나이다. 본 연구는 온라인 임신 Q&A 게시판의 내용적 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 네트워크 분석을 수행하였다. 먼저 수집한 데이터의 전체적인 내용적 특성을 살펴본 후, 게시글 작성자인 임산부의 임신 시기에 따른 게시글의 내용적 특성을 살펴보았다. 분석 결과 임신시기별로 핵심적인 단어의 빈도의 차이가 있었으며 네트워크의 구성 또한 다른 것을 확인하였다. 또한 성별에 따라서도 그 내용적 특성이 다른 것을 살펴 볼 수 있었다.

In recent years, social media that has emerged with the development of network technology has changed the channels of information dissemination. The social Q&A community is a platform for knowledge-sharing activities in a question-and-answer manner based on Web 2.0. In knowledge-sharing activities, valuable new knowledge continues to be produced and will surely bring great benefits to individuals or businesses. In the social Q&A community, the user's subjective factors play a crucial role in influencing the user's continued use and participation in knowledge-sharing activities. In order for users to actively participate in knowledge-sharing activities in the community, it needs to grasp their subjective ideas. This study explores the issue of sharing knowledge by users of the social Q&A community "Zhihu", or how to drive community revitalization efforts from these. The three factors self-efficacy, self-development motivation, and social comparison tendencies were derived, and identify their relationship with knowledge-sharing activities and community-boosting efforts through empirical analysis. In addition, the influence of knowledge acquisition on knowledge provision was investigated through sense of reciprocity. Implications of the study findings and the future research directions were also discussed.

본 논문은 스마트 디바이스와 소셜네트워크의 커뮤니티 기능을 활용하여 정보와 지식을 위한 실시간 질의응답 시스템을 제안한다. 정보와 지식의 양이 증가 하고 인터넷과 스마트 디바이스의 발전으로 인하여 지식검색의 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 하지만 현재 컴퓨터는 사용자의 질문을 정확히 이해하고 관련된 답변을 제공해주기 어렵다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 질의응답 시스템은 스마트 디바이스를 이용하고 SNS와 같이 커뮤니티 기반의 서비스를 적용한 실시간 커뮤니티형 질의응답 시스템이다. 사용자의 질문을 분석하여 관심사가 같은 사용자들을 그룹화 하고 관심사가 같은 사용자끼리 질문과 답변을 할 수 있는 서비스를 제공하여 질문과 답변을 효율적으로 주고받을 수 있다. 또한 사용자 피드백을 적용하여 사용자 랭킹을 보여줌으로써 사용자들의 답변률을 향상 시키고 스팸성 답변자에게 제한을 할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다.

Considering the continuous increase of teenagers' Internet use and the high rate of their participation in online communities, educators need to devote efforts to minimize the negative function of teenagers' Internet use and to guide them to experience positive aspects of Internet. Through activities in online communities, teenagers can experience various socialities and explore their self-consciousness. However, on the other hand many communities do not provide teenagers with considerate care. This may cause conflict in their sense of value and mislead them. Through this study, online learning community is designed and developed, which can reflect teenagers' various needs and connect their needs with learning experiences. The community consists of the following categories: 'about e-Tivity'(community vision, general information, list of activities, Q&A), 'activity space for teens'(event hall, data park, e-Tivity center), 'administrative space for teachers and managers'(research room, management room), and 'teen's private space'(my room, my avatar).

Many studies in deep learning show results as good as human's decision in various fields. And importance of activation of online-community and SNS grows up in game industry. Even it decides whether a game can be successful or not. The purpose of this study is to construct a system which can read texts and create comments according to schedule in online-community and SNS using deep learning. Using recurrent neural network, we constructed models generating a comment and a schedule of writing comments, and made program choosing a news title and uploading the comment at twitter in calculated time automatically. This study can be applied to activating an online game community, a Q&A service, etc.

Along the information technology progresses, the demand for the educational application increases which derives the need for cyber education. Cyber education should take the knowledge construction model rather than the knowledge delivery model. For the educational paradigm shift by cyber education, 'Project-Based Learning' and 'Cyber Learning Community' need to be adopted. In this study, project-based cyber learning community for teacher education is developed with 5 major categories: Home(community vision, general information, project list, Q&A), project learning center(preparation for the instructional activities, group-based learning activities, presentations), meeting plaza(request for group mentoring, sharing ideas, meeting specialist, survey participating, forum participating, result presentation), references(cases of project studies, materials for project studies, materials for teacher education, general materials), management(project management, project cases, idea bank, finding partners, dialog with instructors, sharing references, sharing experiences, survey, forum).

This study aims to investigate the gamification effect of the badge awards, the most popular gamification process, on users participation behavior. This study also attempts to investigate the effect of tailored gamification, which designs the system of gamification differently based on users' characteristics, focusing on the level of online user information disclosure. For this, we collect and analyze data on 557 users and 1,048,020 answers from StackOverflow, an online Q&A community for developers. The results show that providing a badge is effective for increasing the amount of user participation, whereas providing a goal through the badge is partially effective for increasing the quality of participation. However, the moderating effect of whether users disclose their SNS information on the relationship between badge gaining and participation decrease is not statistically significant. For platform operators, our findings emphasize the importance of gamification design to enhance user engagement effectively.
