数据化生存：媒介驯化视角下用户量化自我研究

Digitalized Existence: A Study on Users’ Quantified Self from the Perspective of Media Domestication

摘要: 随着技术的发展，互联网已经与用户的日常生活深度互嵌，其学习、运动等活动通过电子设备完成，产生的相关数据是用户量化自我的依据，并将其上传至社交媒体打卡，在这一过程中逐渐沦为平台的数字劳工。本文从媒介驯化视角出发，运用网络民族志研究方法，聚焦用户在社交媒体平台量化自我打卡行为，考察用户与量化自我技术的互动过程，揭示数据化生存中用户的数据实践，旨在为理解当代数字生活提供新的理论工具与实践启示。

Abstract: With the development of technology, the Internet has been deeply integrated into users’ daily lives. Their activities such as learning and exercising are carried out through electronic devices, generating relevant data that serves as the basis for users’ quantified self. This data is then uploaded to social media platforms for check-ins. In this process, users gradually become digital laborers for the platforms. This paper, from the perspective of media domestication, employs the research method of cyber-ethnography to focus on users’ check-in behaviors of quantified self on social media platforms. It examines the interaction process between users and quantified self technologies, revealing users’ data practices in the context of digitalized existence. The aim is to provide new theoretical tools and practical insights for understanding contemporary digital life.
