Hello!

I’m Matthew Pittman.

I’m an Assistant Professor at The University of Tennessee. My research interests revolve around social media,  prosocial strategic communication, and message framing/design. I use mostly social scientific methods like surveys and experiments to understand how people are affected by and make decisions within emerging media environments.

My work has been published in Journal of Social Media in Society, Computers in Human Behavior, Journal of Media Ethics, Journal of Business Ethics, and First Monday, and most of it can be found on Google Scholar.
