definities

A social mechanism is a plausible hypothesis, or set of plausible hypotheses, that could be the explanation of some social phenomenon.

An incentive is any factor (financial or non-financial) that enables or motivates a particular course of action, or counts as a reason for preferring one choice to the alternatives.

Waarom?

• Duurzaam ontwerp• gedragen door de gebruikers

Berlanga et al.

• Sustainability in the context of online communities means tooling online communities in such a way that users may manage, organise, regulate and classify resources, participants and communities.

Kollock

• motivatie ～ behoefte

benader mensen niet op dezelfde manier er moet aan een behoefte worden voldaan

Bouwman et al.

• We argue that social software systems should trigger mechanisms that allow us to associate with or form social groups, whether online or in the real world.

• • Such mechanisms would acknowledge human

motivations, like eagerness for exploration, curiosity, inquisitiveness, civilization, valuation of belonging, achieving self-realization, enjoying one-self.
