Thesis Title
Stance, Same-Sex Marriage and Space: An Analysis of Self-Referencing on YouTube

Read article at Massey Research Online:

Despite the popularity of YouTube as an online platform, little research has been conducted on the user-generated textual responses as a form of engagement on the site. Ms Kerry's research analysed what YouTubers say about themselves in comments responding to the passing of New Zealand's law to allow same-sex couples to marry. Using Mediated Discourse Analysis, she proposed a new theoretical framework for understanding the complexities of YouTube interaction and reworked an existing model of stancetaking used in offline contexts. She argued that YouTubers' self-referencing may be used to warrant stance and users' right to enter the space, correct other YouTubers' assumptions, and serve as a tool for making sense of YouTubers' online and offline worlds.
