Innovative characteristics of users' intention to continue using personalized recommendation news apps
With the massive increase in the available news information, it is difficult for users to quickly obtain the news they are interested in, resulting in personalized recommendation news applications. As the popularity of such innovative products grows, it is important to understand how people perceive and use these innovations. The focus of this study was the personalized recommendation news app "Toutiao," which has a high level of user activity in China. Based on the diffusion of innovation theory, this study investigates the relative advantages, compatibility, complexity, and observability characteristics of the Toutiao App as independent variables (IV). The dependent variable is the users' intention to continue using (DV) products. Furthermore, the research on innovation characteristics will help developers and service providers of mobile news apps in determining which innovations are more capable of attracting and retaining users, as well as which innovations have specific reference significance for the improvement of user experience mechanisms and market development strategies

Social media use among young people in China: a systematic literature review
The widespread use of social media has promoted extensive academic research on this channel. The present study conducts a systematic analysis of extant research on social media use among young people in China. This systematic literature review aims to identify and bridge gaps in topics, theories, variables, and conceptual frameworks in studies of social media usage among young people in China. The study aims to develop a cause–effect framework that shows the causal relationships among research structures. The PRISMA method is used to review 20 articles drawn from the Scopus and Google Scholar databases. From the analysis, 10 major research topics, eight theories or models, and a complete framework of causal relations emerge. It is recommended that future research on social media should include a greater diversity of types of social media, investigate a wider range of research topics, and adopt different theories or models. Researchers should also implement a more complete and detailed systematic method for reviewing literature on social media research in China
Moderating effect of gender on the relationship between TikTok usage and positive emotion among TikTok users in China
This study aims to identify the moderating effect of gender on the relationship between TikTok usage and positive emotion among TikTok users in China.

To fill the gap, this study utilized a quantitative research method by using survey approach. A cross-sectional study was adopted, while the questionnaires were distributed online in this study. The study has collected 244 questionnaires through convenience sampling technique. The results shown that both of the two predictors which are perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use toward using TikTok are significantly associated with positive emotion among TikTok users in China. However, gender does not play a moderating role on the relationship between TikTok usage and positive emotion. It was found that the users of TikTok are mainly young generation.

The effect of gain versus loss framing of Covid-19 online news on preventive behavior
World Health Organization announced the coronavirus as a pandemic on March 11th 2020. The outbreak caused a massive destruction globally affecting more than 200 countries. During pandemic, information regarding the control of spreading, infectious cases, prevention, preparedness and risks are the important elements of public health. Media plays an important role here in delivering all this kind of information during the crisis. This is because media is the mediator of health communication between both the public and the government. Media framing influence public’s preventive behaviour differently in terms of positive and negative framing. Their framing is capable enough to influence one’s health behaviour and response to the disease differently. The purpose of this review paper is to examine how gain and loss framing influence COVID-19 preventive behaviours differently. This study chooses two main theories which are Valence Framing theory and Health Belief Model (HBM). This study draws the relationship between gain and loss as news framing effects, with perceived threat, perceived evaluation and self-efficacy as components of HBM. The combination of these two theories would be great tool for future studies to research on preventive behaviors. Besides that, this study will help the media to understand which frame (positive or negative) can educate the society and raise public health behaviours. This may also help the government to plan strategies for better health outcome practices from the public
