Focus Theory

At present, a large number of theories exist which explain the process for choosing communication media in organizations. Channel expansion theory combines a large part of the theoretical foundation for these theories, suggesting that the perceived richness of a communication medium varies according to experience based on the knowledge of the organization’s members. Equally, Regulatory Focus Theory also suggests that individuals behave in a different way when their self regulation states are different. This investigation intends to present a set of proposals based on the existing literature about how strategy type /focus (promotion and prevention) affects the perception of the richness of a communication medium, increasing the explanatory capacity of channel expansion theory.

The Impact

Social media use in the workplace may simultaneously contribute to productive behaviors (task-oriented and relationship-building) as well as unproductive behaviors (deviance) at work. Building on channel expansion theory the authors examine the impact of using social media on these organizational behaviors. Using a sample of 220 working individuals they found that intensity of social media use contributed to greater task-oriented social media behaviors, more relationship-building social media behaviors, and more deviant social media behaviors. Further, the authors examined the moderating effect that preoccupation with social media has on these direct relationships and found that preoccupation diminishes the effect of social media use on both productive and un-productive behaviors.

Channel Expansion

This study investigates channel choice and effective patient-provider communication, patient satisfaction, self-efficacy, and self-care management among patients with a chronic disease by applying and testing two prominent media choice theories: channel expansion theory and media synchronicity theory. A national sample of respondents with chronic disease completed measures assessing constructs from each theory. The model for media synchronicity theory provided a better fit for the data than did the model for channel expansion theory. By providing an integrative model of effective patient-provider communication, this research provides practitioners and patients with theoretically -based empirical guidance to advance the study of chronic disease management.
