#Coronavirus on TikTok:

Examining Factors Related to Reception of Content

By [source]

About this dataset

This dataset explores various factors associated with the reception of COVID-19 related content on TikTok. It not only captures overall levels of user engagement such as likes, comments, and views but also explores source credibility including information from healthcare professionals, news sources, patients, and other outlets. It further dives into demographic factors such as gender and age range as well as content type like humor or provision of clinical instruction. Finally, it takes a look at elements such as description of risk factors & symptoms along with modes of transmission established by the posts in question and prevention that was discussed within them. Moreover, there is a discernment component that breaks down user perception - rating the posts for level of misinformation (moderate/high/low). All these measures combined provide insights into how users are engaging with COVID-19 related misinformation on TikTok

How to use the dataset

This dataset contains user engagement data and measures of source credibility related to COVID-19 misinformation on TikTok. It can be used to examine the factors associated with content reception, such as views, likes, comments, as well as factors relating to credibility, demographics and content type.

Using this dataset:

Explore the columns available in the dataset. There are a number of columns that measure user engagement (views, likes and comments) as well as source credibility (official source, healthcare professional etc.), demographic factors (gender, age group etc.), and content type (humor etc). Get familiar with all these columns so that you know what information is available for analysis.

Decide what kind of analysis you want to perform. You can use this data for exploratory or explanatory work - depending on your aims or research question. For example if you want to see how source credibility affects user engagement then you would need descriptive statistical techniques such as correlation tests or regression analyses etc., whereas if you just want to gain an overall understanding of patterns in this data then exploratory techniques such as cross tabulations may be more suitable.

Research Ideas

Developing a predictive model to identify which demographic and source characteristics are correlated with high user engagement for COVID-related posts on TikTok (e.g. views, likes, and comments).

Investigating the difference in user engagement for posts from healthcare professionals vs non-professional sources to compare how different types of content are received by users on TikTok.

Analyzing the sentiment of words related to masks and tests in order to gain insights into how content about this topic is perceived by users on TikTok (i.e., positive or negative sentiment)
