  Title Terror Management and Twitter: The Case of the 2016 Berlin Terrorist Attack Type Conference Article
  Year 2018 Publication ISCRAM 2018 Conference Proceedings – 15th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management Abbreviated Journal Iscram 2018  
  Volume Issue Pages 459-468  
  Keywords Terrorist attacks, social networking sites, social media, Twitter, topic modeling, terror management, sense-making  
  Abstract There is evidence that people increasingly use social networking sites like Twitter in the aftermath of terrorist attacks to make sense of the events at the collective level. This work-in-progress paper focuses on the content of Twitter messages related to the 2016 terrorist attack on the Berlin Christmas market. We chose topic modeling to investigate the Twitter data and the terror management theory perspective to understand why people used Twitter in the aftermath of the attack. In particular, by connecting people and providing a real-time communication channel, Twitter helps its users collectively negotiate their worldviews and re-establish self-esteem. We provide first results and discuss next steps.

  Title Towards Social Media Decision Support for Joined EMS and Crisis Logistics Type Conference Article
  Year 2019 Publication Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response And Management Abbreviated Journal Iscram 2019  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Crisis Logistics, EMS Logistics, Social Media, Decision-Making  
  Abstract In this paper, we investigate how social media can be utilised to support the integration of emergency medical services (EMS) and crisis management activities. We explore the literature both on social media in crisis management and on EMS logistics to elaborate on their potential to support EMS logistics planning based on the experiences from crisis management. We then discuss how social media data can be used for tactical and strategic decision-making using location data to improve demand forecasting and planning for both routine emergencies and crises.
