Abstract: Computer-mediated communication (CMC) involves sending messages through computer networks such as the Internet. Research on the social impacts of text-based CMC began with a cues-filtered-out perspective, highlighting the loss of social information due to the absence of face-to-face, nonverbal cues. More recent theories focus on how message senders exploit the CMC medium in order to create messages and relationships actively. A sender-receiver-message-channel-feedback model of communication reveals how CMC affects social dynamics.
