- Abstract
TikTok is the most downloaded short video platform in the world which brings a significant negative impact on adolescents. Furthermore, there is a substantial similarity between the spread of TikTok’s influence and the spread of the epidemic. Based on this fact, we can model the spread of the TikTok’s influence by introducing the Ignorant-Recommender-Indifference-Opposer (SIRO) model. We derive the differential equation and obtain the disease-free equilibrium. Then we calculate the generation matrix and basic reproduction number (R0) and discuss the method to control the spread of TikTok’s influence. The study suggests that in order to decrease the population of TikTok users, the rate of ignorant people and indifferent people turning to recommenders should decrease, and the rate of recommenders turning to indifferent people should increase by improving education and the government’s propaganda to the harm of TikTok.
