Abstract:This paper adopts Grounded theory coding methods to research on user-generated information quality and information credibility evaluation in the context of online communities,and analyzes a total of 13 020 messages of two discussion topics.16.8% of the messages have clear evaluation of information quality and credibility. The results show that:(I)the users usually use one or a few evaluation indicators to evaluate information quality and credibility in online community; (II)the user frequently use correctness, usefulness, specificity to evaluate information quality and reputation, professionalism, honesty (negative standard) to evaluate information credibility;(III) the users tend to use negative indicators to evaluate the quality and reliability of online community information.
