The role of online media in mobilizing large-scale collective action by Chen, Zhuo, Oh, Poong, Chen, Anfan

“…The results showed that messages generated by users who occupied peripheral positions (i.e., lower k-coreness) and by those connecting others within closed communities (i.e., lower brokerage) were more likely to diffuse than those generated by central users or those who bridged different communities. …”
