About Me
I'm Jie Cai (蔡杰). I am an Assistant Research Professor at
College of IST, Penn State University
and work closely with John M. Carroll. I received my Ph.D. in the
Ying
Wu College of Computing at New Jersey Institute of Technology. I was supervised by
Dr. Yvette Wohn and also worked at the Social X Lab.
I had been a TA for 6 semesters for 5 courses and have independently taught a course.
I worked with Dr. Yvette Wohn on the
NFS-funded project about content moderation on social media.
My primary interests focus on phenomena
in novel and interactive online communities in HCI and CSCW, such as gaming, shopping, and
content moderation. I also have a broad interest in teleworking and social music and other
topics (welcome to discuss/collaborate). I applied both qualitative (e.g., interview,
observation) and quantitative (e.g., survey) methods to understand users’ decision-making
and behavioral patterns and aimed to improve user experience in the online space. My
dissertation is "Understanding the Voluntary Moderation Practices in Live Streaming
Communities".
