Description

Twitter is one of the most popular microblogging services today. On Twitter, a user ID and an icon, or a profile image are always simultaneously displayed. In addition, the icon expresses the taste of every user since the user chooses the image to be displayed. Therefore, the icon selection can contribute to the impression formed. The purpose of this study is to investigate how users present a self-image through icon selection and how they form impressions of other users on Twitter. A content analysis of tweets suggested that prejudices were formed when a male user chose an animation character for their icon. Furthermore, young users disclose their photographs temporarily to develop relationships with their followers.
