Specifically, social media provides an outlet to increase and promote translational health communication strategies and the effective dissemination of health information and data in ways that allow users to not only utilize, but also to create and share pertinent health information. Although social media applications in public health and health promotion have yielded success in terms of generating support structures and networks for effective health behavior change, there are challenges and complications associated with use of social media that also need to be addressed (e.g., managing misinformation, ensuring compliance with privacy protection regulations). This Special Issue aims to explore social media as a translational health promotion tool by bridging principles of health education and health communication. Broadly, this Special Issue is seeking original submissions that examine: (1) the method with which social media users access, negotiate, and create health information that is both actionable and impactful for diverse audiences; (2) strategies for overcoming challenges to using social media in health promotion; and (3) best practices for designing, implementing, and/or evaluating social media campaigns and forums in public health. Special interest will be given to innovative submissions that expand and build upon traditional health education approaches with health communication theories and models. Other manuscript types of interest include relevant position papers, brief reports, and commentaries. 606 $aHumanities$2bicssc 606 $aSocial interaction$2bicssc 610 $aactivity 610 $aAmerican Communities Project 610 $aautism 610 $aChina 610 $achronic obstructive pulmonary disease 610 $acommunication theory of identity 610 $aconsumer health informatics 610 $aCOPD 610 $adrive for thinness 610 $aemotional support 610 $aethics 610 $aexcessive drinking 610 $aexpectation confirmation 610 $aFacebook 610 $ahealth education 610 $ahealth promotion 610 $ahealth-oriented websites 610 $ahealthcare 610 $ahealthy consumption 610 $aHONcode 610 $aInternet 610 $amicro-video 610 $an/a 610 $anatural language processing 610 $anatural language processing (NLP) 610 $aneuroticism 610 $aonline community 610 $aonline resource 610 $aonline social support 610 $aonline support groups 610 $aopenness to new experience 610 $aphysical literacy 610 $aprivacy concern 610 $aProvincial Health Committee 610 $apurchase intention 610 $arural health 610 $aself-management 610 $asocial identity 610 $asocial media 610 $asocial media-based health management systems 610 $asocial support 610 $asustained health engagement 610 $atheory of planned behavior 610 $aTik Tok 610 $atrust 610 $aTwitter 610 $awearable technology 610 $aweb content internalization 610 $aYouTube 615 7$aHumanities 615 7$aSocial interaction 700 $aStellefson$b Michael$4edt$01309650 702 $aChaney$b J.
