Abstract

The research object of this paper is the consumption of videoclips by users of adolescents between 12 and 18 years old. A sample from Beijing is taken as an example. The habits of use between different sample groups were explored and the factors that influence the perception of similarity of audiovisual content experienced by adolescent users when using the TikTok social network were analyzed. The research investigates the different usage motivations and preference types of videoclips according to age and gender and finds that viewing videoclips about knowledge/teaching or advertising/selling products decreases the perception of similarity of content. Second, algorithm recommendation knowledge for the TikTok platform is studied but reveals that it is not directly related to the perception of similarity. Third, the findings indicate that habits such as frequency and duration of use do not affect the perception of similarity, while all types of video clip tagging amplify the filter bubble complex in which adolescents are trapped.
