One of the most common analyses in social networks concerns power users (also called influencers, lead users, influential users, etc.), i.e. users who play a crucial role in the dissemination of information in a social platform. In this paper, we want to make a double contribution to this line of research by proposing a new definition of power users that takes into account the four main centralities of Social Network Analysis and then applying it to Threads, a social platform that is still little studied by social network analysts because of its young age.

Abstract
One of the most common analyses in social networks concerns power users (also called influencers, lead users, influential users, etc.), i.e. users who play a crucial role in the dissemination of information in a social platform. In this paper, we want to make a double contribution to this line of research by proposing a new definition of power users that takes into account the four main centralities of Social Network Analysis and then applying it to Threads, a social platform that is still little studied by social network analysts because of its young age.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
