چکیده انگلیسی


• Local governments still push information to followers on social media.
• City governments are likely to adopt a neutral tone and use a push style of information sharing.
• City governments that have a positive tone are likely to encourage citizen participation on social media.
• Positive tone needs to be coupled with photo sharing, exclamation points, and retweets to further encourage participation.

As social media tools become more popular at all levels of government, more research is needed to determine how the platforms can be used to create meaningful citizen–government collaboration. Many entities use the tools in one-way, push manners. The aim of this research is to determine if sentiment (tone) can positively influence citizen participation with government via social media. Using a systematic random sample of 125 U.S. cities, we found that positive sentiment is more likely to engender digital participation but this was not a perfect one-to-one relationship. Some cities that had an overall positive sentiment score and displayed a participatory style of social media use did not have positive citizen sentiment scores. We argue that positive tone is only one part of a successful social media interaction plan, and encourage social media managers to actively manage platforms to use activities that spur participation.
