Abstract
This study focuses on the applicability of social media platform types for organizing voluntary helpers in emergency management. An online experiment with 114 participants was conducted in order to answer the question on which type of platform volunteers are able to make sound decisions on where best to play a part in emergency management. We distinguish three basic platform types, deduced from the principle of information arrangement (time, location and topic). We found that the quality of decisions varied depending on which platform was used. Best results were achieved by topic-organized, worst by time-organized platforms. Implications for research and practice are discussed.
