Through the advent of social media, a thing known as “slactivism” has arisen. This is literally activism through social media and, despite such a negative label, researchers are finding that this actually works! Activism through the medium of social media is having a significant impact. This is just ONE example of many of not only a “mass behavior” but can also fit into all 4 categories of social movements. The individuals involved in this mass behavior/social behavior could easily be examined within the lens of the “contagion theory” as well as the “emergent-norm theory.”
