    Abstract:
    Information dissemination refers to how information spreads among users on social networks. With the widespread application of mobile communication and internet technologies, people increasingly rely on information on the internet, and the mode of information dissemination is constantly changing. Researchers have performed various studies from mathematical modeling and cascade prediction perspectives to explore the previous problem. However, lacking a comprehensive review of the latest information dissemination models hinders scientific development. As a result, it is essential to review the latest models or methods. In this paper, we review information dissemination models from the past three years and conduct a detailed analysis, such as explanatory and predictive models. Moreover, we provide public datasets, evaluation metrics, and interface tools for researchers focusing more on algorithm design and modeling. Finally, we discuss the model application and future research directions. This paper aims to understand better the research progress and development trends for beginners and guide future research endeavors. We believe this article will attract more researchers’ interest and attention to the information dissemination field on social networks.

    In Brief Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of different strategies for disseminating evaluation Results to program stakeholders. Methods The Results from a process evaluation of eight states' tobacco control programs were disseminated to the state programs that were assigned to one of four dissemination conditions: print Reports only, Reports and Web site, Reports and workshop, or all three dissemination modes. Key measures included levels of usefulness of the evaluation Results and satisfaction of participation by study participants. Results Although exposure to the Web site and workshop individually did not provide a statistically higher degree of usefulness, a clear upward trend was observed in usefulness as the number of dissemination modes increased. Participants who engaged in all three dissemination modes found the Results more useful (P < .05) for their work and the work of their agency than participants using one or two dissemination modes. Participants who engaged in the three dissemination modes also appeared to be more likely to share the Results with their colleagues (P = .06). Conclusions This study shows that disseminating evaluation Results through multiple, active modes increased usefulness, satisfaction, and further dissemination of the Results. Evaluators should consider implementing more than one mode of dissemination to share findings with stakeholders. This article provides multiple methods for disseminating evaluation findings of eight states' tobacco control programs. A clear upward trend in usefulness is observed as the number of dissemination modes increases.

    Now internet is an important channel to disseminate public information by local governments. In recent years, many local governments have started to use social networking services, on which public information is automatically pushed on residents' client applications on their devices. Local governments disseminate various kinds of information, tourism information, disaster information, management of local governments, and so on. Although local governments must disseminate information efficiently, the different of effect by information has not been analyzed. The purpose of this research is to reveal actual conditions that local governments disseminate information on social networking service. This research analyzed various parameters by correlation analysis and content by morphological analysis. And we extracted words retweeted by residents and found the trend of popular words and features by regions.

    Due to the high rate of transmission of the Covid 19, it is evidenced that people in rural and urban areas have not been properly informed about this scourge. Illiteracy may have formed part of the problems for them to access the social media tools that contain information disseminated on Covid 19. Fake information on social media has dominated the social space with its attendant conspiracy theories. This has provided conflicting believes about this pandemic. This, therefore, has provided a gap for the librarians to fill. This theoretical paper assesses the librarians’ use of social media in disseminating health information on Covid 19. The paper using updated and relevant literatures, gave concepts for social media, health information, dissemination/ information dissemination, and Coronavirus disease (Covid 19). The paper discussed the librarians’ use of social media trusted sources to disseminate Covid 19 information. The paper also x-rayed the social media used by librarians for Covid 19 information dissemination. The paper further discussed the problems of librarians’ use of social media in dissemination of Covid 19 health information. Conclusion was that in this information age, public health awareness is key to minimize causalities, and librarians can play a vital role to disseminate this information with health care workers, society, and communities by utilizing effective social media platforms such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Whatsapp, 2go, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, WordPress, Tumblr, Blogger, among others to educate people on maintaining preventive measures during the lockdown phase. The paper recommended that librarians in all institutions should be motivated by means of enhanced packages to cover cost for subscription and other social media tools that will boast their dissemination of health information on Covid 19 to the people

    Objectives . In public health and clinical settings insufficient dissemination of evidence-based practices limits the reach of new discoveries to broad populations. This study aimed to describe characteristics of the dissemination process by researchers across three countries (Brazil, United Kingdom, and United States), explore how designing for dissemination practices has been used, and analyze factors associated with dissemination. Methods . A similar online survey was used to query researchers across the three countries; data were pooled to draw cross-country conclusions. Findings . This study identified similarities and differences between countries. Importance of dissemination to nonresearcher audiences was widely recognized as important; however, traditional academic venues were the main dissemination method. Several factors were associated with self-rated dissemination effort in the pooled sample, but these predictive factors (e.g., support and resources for dissemination) had low prevalence. Less than one-third of researchers rated their level of effort for dissemination as excellent. Respondents reported limited support and resources to make it easier for researchers who might want to disseminate their findings. Conclusion . Though intentions show the importance of dissemination, researchers across countries lack supports to increase dissemination efforts. Additional resources and training in designing for dissemination along with improved partnerships could help bridge the research-practice gap.

    Japan's recent disaster response management planning efforts have focused on non-structural measures. Many local governments often disseminate evacuation information through mail-based disaster information systems. Local governments make evacuation announcements based on their best judgment, and after that, they disseminate these announcements further using e-mails. However, there are no format of mail-based disaster information systems, and it has proven difficult to disseminate the appropriate evacuation information at the right time. Further, there are no current studies focused on developing a more suitable and effective management of mail-based disaster information system. We intend to analyze problems associated with current disaster information systems?with the objective of being able to recommend improvements?by focusing on actual evacuation information dissemination processes of mail-based disaster information systems. We begin with a survey of the actual content and timing of text messages issued by local governments. In this way, we are able to identify differences between text messages and time delays in the dissemination of evacuation information by local governments. Our case study is based on a survey of the evacuation information dissemination processes used in the case of Typhoon Man-yi (2013).

    Information dissemination is an important element in teaching and research around the world. Dissemination of information through electronic networking has transformed the conduct of research and teaching in institutions and organizations. Electronic networks are offering researchers a wide range of opportunities in creation, processing, transmission and dissemination of information. Researchers can exchange information, collaborate on research projects and disseminate the results of their research to a wider audience in the shortest possible time. However, due to some disadvantages in Nigeria, there are obstacles to the achievement of the above. This paper will treat information dissemination through networking. Networking activities, obstacles to effective information dissemination and solution to the obstacles. Journal of Research in National Development Vol. 3 (2) 2005: pp. 58-63
