INFORMASI is an academic journal that centered in communication, is open and welcoming to contributions from the many disciplines and approaches that meet at the crossroads that is communication study. We are interested in scholarship that crosses disciplinary lines and speaks to readers from a range of theoretical and methodological perspectives. In other words, INFORMASI will be a forum for scholars when they address the wider audiences of our many sub-fields and specialties, rather than the location for the narrower conversations more appropriately conducted within more specialized journals. INFORMASI published twice a year (June and December) in Bahasa Indonesia or English.

Abstract

This paper examines how social media platforms X (Twitter) and Facebook algorithmically amplify financial disinformation and fraud, comparing two distinct archetypes: the relational deception of “Yahoo Boys” and the techno-utopian rhetoric of “Crypto Bros.” Using a mixed-methods approach—including algorithmic auditing, network analysis, and victim interviews—the research demonstrates that fraudulent content is amplified 67 times faster than legitimate content due to platform design that prioritizes high-arousal engagement. It reveals critical structural vulnerabilities in content moderation, including severe scale limitations and systemic biases that disproportionately fail non-English and African-language communities. The findings show that micro-targeting tools originally designed for advertisers are weaponized to prey on vulnerable users. The study concludes that platforms are active architects of digital financial risk, necessitating fundamental reforms in algorithmic design and moderation practices.

Abstract

With a focus on the experiences of rural and wetland women in Jamalpur, this study examines the vulnerabilities that women confront in the context of climate change. Based on a theoretical framework that includes concepts of innovation, crisis communication theory, social network theory and capability approach. The study uses in-depth interviews with 13 village and wetland women, and separate focused group discussions among them, and seven key informant interviews. Results show that women demonstrate resilience in the face of a lack of understanding about climate change and the dangers it poses by applying their local knowledge and experiences to adapt to difficult situations. Wetland women's communication patterns are notably different from village women's, suggesting differences in social practices. It would seem that village women are in a more privileged position and could have better access to resources and information. This study highlights the value of support networks and communication tools while illuminating women's ability to adjust to climate-related issues. The results highlight the necessity of customized interventions that identify and tackle the distinct vulnerabilities faced by women in various social and geographic contexts, ultimately leading to more efficacious measures for adapting to climate change.

Abstract

The study looked at national media in China, Thailand, and Indonesia to investigate how they frame the SDGs, following Entman's four framing functions: problem definition, causal interpretation, moral evaluation, and treatment recommendations. Through qualitative content analysis of 52 Indonesian news, 49 Thai news, and 92 Chinese news agency news in the first half of 2025 from the three largest outlets in each of these countries, the study highlights the selective emphasis and different narrative biases conditioned by political systems and media ownership structures. Chinese state media highlighted the SDGs underpinned by national development agendas, such as the infrastructure agenda and climate action, highlighting centralized planning as a success factor while downplaying governance and equality issues. Thai media seems to view things from a technocratic angle, emphasizing innovation and partnerships while leaving aside biodiversity and systemic inequality. Indonesian media focuses more on achievements at the institutional level in poverty and infrastructure, viewing development issues largely as external or technical, while being very reluctant to criticize structural barriers. In all cases, the media narrative tends to legitimize the government's agenda and national image projections rather than nurture them.

Abstract

This study examines how K-Pop Demon Hunters became a transmedia phenomenon through the rapid circulation of fan and creator responses across digital platforms. Using netnography, it analyzes six YouTube Shorts videos that circulated around the film shortly after its Netflix release, including parody, AI-generated realism, official choreography, behind-the-scenes content, cosplay, and vocal performance. The study finds that the film’s fictional idol groups were repeatedly re-staged as if they were real K-pop acts through a combination of participatory fan practices, studio-produced content, and independent creator labor. Drawing on Jenkins’s participatory culture and transmedia storytelling, Baudrillard’s hyperreality, and Virilio’s dromology, the analysis shows how speed, repetition, and visual realism helped blur the boundary between fiction and reality. Rather than functioning only as an animated film, K-Pop Demon Hunters evolved into a distributed media event in which audiences actively expanded the narrative across platforms. The study contributes to media and fandom studies by showing how fictional idols can gain cultural legitimacy through transmedia circulation, platform-based participation, and collective audience imagination.

Abstract

This study applies quantum cognition frameworks to investigate how Nigerian media audiences sustain contradictory beliefs ("superposition") across climate change, political narratives, and AI discourses. The study examines: (1) extent of superposition prevalence, (2) probabilistic belief distributions via quantum mathematics, (3) real-world collapse triggers, and (4) superposition duration. Using a mixed-design quasi-experiment, 800 Nigerian adults completed a Quantum Belief Scale (QBS) measuring probabilistic agreement with contradictory statements. Participants were stratified into intervention groups receiving domain-specific stimuli (IPCC reports, OECD guidelines, political endorsements) and a control. Experience Sampling Methodology tracked real-time belief fluctuations over 14 days. Quantum probability models and survival analyses were applied. Key findings reveal: Significant superposition across domains—political (56.7%), climate (50.1%), AI (45.2%)—challenging cognitive dissonance models. Climate-political beliefs showed strongest quantum correlations (concurrence=0.435±0.056), violating Bell inequalities (S>2), confirming non-classical interdependencies. Triggers like authoritative credible sources (e.g., NIMET climate data: 81.2% collapse rate) outperformed social media. Domain-specific interventions reduced superposition by 16–18% without cross-domain spillover. Also, the duration of median superposition stability lasted 8.4 days, extended among rural (9.1 days) and less educated (9.8 days) participants. Beliefs re-superposed within 18–24 hours post-collapse without reinforcement.

Abstract

The awareness of sustainable beauty has increased in Indonesia, with local and global beauty companies’ entities incorporating eco-friendly campaigns into their social media strategies. The objective of this research is to identify what, why, and how beauty brands and sustainable communities implement these campaigns to engage consumers. Utilizing an in-depth qualitative approach, purposive sampling was used to conduct interviews with three key decision-makers from Garnier Indonesia and the Lyfe with Less community. The findings reveal four primary social media content communication strategies utilized to promote green beauty: transforming brand commitment, shifting towards greener products, educating consumers about sustainable living, and presenting transparent reporting to the public. By comparing a commercial mass-market brand with a grassroots minimalist community, this study contributes valuable insights into effective brand positioning, sustainability communication, and strategies for avoiding greenwashing within the Indonesian beauty industry.

Abstract

The heightened insecurity in Nigeria necessitated the establishment of the Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn Corps in the southwestern region. Within this context, it becomes important to examine the role of WhatsApp, a widely adopted communication platform, in supporting the Corps’ efforts to address security challenges. Despite its growing relevance, there remains a notable gap in research providing a comprehensive assessment of how the Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn Corps’ use of WhatsApp has contributed to reducing insecurity in the region. Anchored on the Ritual View of Communication theory, this study focused on two southwestern states: Ondo and Ekiti. A case study design was adopted, with interviews serving as the primary data collection instrument. Eleven Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn officers across different ranks and units participated in the study. Findings indicate that the Corps in both states prefers WhatsApp for internal communication, information dissemination, and grassroots sensitization. The platform also facilitates interaction with local government authorities and landlord associations, enabling prompt feedback and intelligence gathering. Additionally, WhatsApp has been instrumental in disseminating safety and security information to the public. The study concludes that WhatsApp is an effective communication tool for the Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn Corps at the grassroots level and recommends its continued use as an auxiliary technology to mitigate insecurity.

Abstract

The study examined digital media platforms and women’s political engagement in southwest Nigeria. The study adopts a descriptive survey research design. According to the National Population Commission (NPC) and National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), 2016 and 2023, the population of women in Ekiti State is estimated to be 1,553,770, while that of Lagos State is 5,956,115. The two states were randomly selected from the six states in southwest Nigeria.  The sample of 400 was selected at random. The validity of the instrument was ascertained by using face and content validity. Cronbach’s Alpha method was used to test the internal consistency of the instrument, and a coefficient of 0.98 was obtained, which indicates that the instrument was reliable to collect data for the study. The research questions were answered using descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Findings revealed that the women from Lagos and Ekiti States affirm that they use Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), WhatsApp, YouTube, and Snapchat more than other social media platforms such as LinkedIn, TikTok, and WeChat. The study concluded that digital media platforms significantly influence digital media usage by women for socio-political engagement in Southwest Nigeria. Therefore, the study recommended that these platforms should be widely promoted among women in Lagos and Ekiti States to promote socio-political participation.

Abstract

This study examines how digital censorship shapes political expression and online activism in Thailand, with attention to emerging transnational influences in Southeast Asia. It explores how legal restrictions affect communication practices and how activists adapt under surveillance and legal uncertainty. Using qualitative case study approach, the research analyze 150 purposively selected Twitter (X) posts, legal documents including the Computer Crime Act and Article 112 of the Thai Criminal Code, and over 20 secondary reports from NGOs and media. The findings reveal that state-imposed social media restrictions produces a strong chilling effect, lead to self-censorship and indirect, symbolic political expression. Activist use coded language, memes, hashtags, and meaning-making. This study concludes that despite increasing repression, online political engagement in Thailand remains active, resilient, and evolving. The research highlights the urgent need to safeguard digital rights and freedom of expression in emerging democracies

Abstract

The research was conducted due to the fatherless phenomenon, which influences the formation of personal information management in interpersonal relationships among Generation Z men. The absence of a father figure causes individuals to have to build personal boundaries independently through personal relationship experiences. This aims to determine how Generation Z men who have lost their father figure manage communication privacy in order to manage personal information in their interpersonal relationships. Descriptive qualitative methods, along with data collection, were used through in-depth interviews with Generation Z male respondents aged 20-25 years who had experienced the loss of a father, located in East Java. Through data analysis using the theory of communication privacy management by Sandra Petronio, the results of the study show that Generation Z men who live without fathers actively apply personal information management as a self-defense strategy independently, without the assistance of a father figure. This management includes personal rules based on trust and intimacy, strict risk considerations, and clear personal boundaries to prevent information leakage. Fatherlessness does not completely determine the management of privacy, but rather the experience of relationships, and the individual's adaptation process to this condition has a greater influence on the formation of communication privacy management.
