New Issue of International Journal of Internet Science

Jan 04 2010

The newest issue (Vol. 4, issue 1) of the International Journal of Internet Science is out.

The current issue features four original research contributions in the field of Internet science. In the editorial they continue their analysis of the journal 's impact from the previous editorial by extending it to webometrics. The specific areas covered by the research articles are the coverage bias of mobile surveys (beginning to be lower than for landlines!), the continuous online

measurement of emotions induced by music, the detrimental effect of racial stereotypes on performance in competitive online environments (like virtual teams), and (non-)effects of textual messages of encouragement and other feedback mechanisms on drop-out in web surveys.
