Trust, reward, structural capital, and cognitive capital play significant roles for bothtypes of user. Reputation and reciprocity have a positive impact only on posters` participation intention, whileviewers are also affected by enjoyment. The only social factor having no effect on posters’ participation intention isidentification. Viewing behavior is not correlated with reciprocity and identification.
