| dc.description.abstract | ["" Instagram is a popular social media app among Chinese student groups, and one of its functions, Stories, allows users to share their daily life in the forms of photo and video. Compared to traditional Instagram posts, Stories allow users to maintain closer connections with individuals by presenting more casual and real-life moments. Chinese students have a big enthusiasm for exploring the usage of Instagram when they are abroad. This study aims to understand how Chinese students engage with Instagram Stories and construct their self-presentation through an analysis of the affordances and contents of Instagram Stories. The research highlights the unique characteristics of
Instagram Stories, where users can present themselves as genuine, spontaneous, and “in the moment”, as opposed to other platforms.,""] | |
