In the era of digitalization, the study of interaction between teachers and students in social networks gains particular relevance. The aim of this research is to monitor these virtual interactions for a deep analysis of opinions, beliefs, preferences, and behavioral patterns regarding the culture of online communication and digital etiquette in online communities. The participants included 227 students (M = 21.59; SD = 2.03) and 114 teachers (M = 40.17; SD = 8.83) from three higher education institutions in Kazakhstan. Specially developed scales of digital etiquette level and online communication quality were used for analysis, and a SWOT analysis (identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) was conducted based on respondent interviews. The results indicated that there was no significant difference in the level of digital etiquette between students and teachers; however, a substantial difference was found in the quality of online communication, with students exhibiting better performance. The correlational analysis did not reveal a statistically significant relationship between the level of digital etiquette and the quality of online communication. The study identifies important aspects of the relationship between digital etiquette and the quality of online communication, providing valuable data for practitioners in the current field and emphasizing the need for further research.

Background: Activity level is a benchmark to document patient recovery; however, there is a lack of instrumentation to measure activity level specific to the foot and ankle. The purpose of this study was to develop a foot and ankle activity level scale (FAALS) instrument that will serve as an effective clinical tool for practitioners by assigning an activity level to patients.
Methods: This was a 4-phase study with 3 rounds of data collection (n = 1432).

Objective: While endometriosis is estimated to affect 1 in 10 women globally, awareness of the disease as well as research and funding to fight the disease remains lacking as compared with other chronic diseases. This study examines how social media users utilized Instagram to raise awareness of and mobilize activism around endometriosis by analyzing prominent topics, word associations, and feminism themes in endometriosis-tagged posts on Instagram.
Methods: We used a mixed-method approach of combining computational analyses (topic modeling and word association) and human coding (qualitative thematic analysis) of Instagram posts on endometriosis.

This study investigates how lower-level English language learners achieve and maintain intersubjectivity and navigate through co-constructed framings during context-embedded tasks such as improvised role-play. In language education settings, activities associated with interactions often reflect multi-layered participant orientations beyond mere linguistic execution. From the perspectives of ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, linguistic actions are effective only when they are intersubjectively understood: the complexity of an activity necessitates corresponding levels of intersubjectivity for smooth progression.

Big Data communication researchers have highlighted the need for qualitative analysis of online science conversations to better understand their meaning. However, a scholarly gap exists in exploring how qualitative methods can be applied to small data regarding micro-bloggers' communications about science articles. While social media attention assists with article dissemination, qualitative research into the associated microblogging practices remains limited.
