  text: 'The new technological enhancements and the accessibility to varieties of
    online applications, enable users to collect personal data and perform self-evaluation
    through test, comparison and experimentation. The sparked interest in numbers
    and numbers as self-representative visualisations is prominent in social networking
    sites, which are the empirical setting for the present study. This paper sets
    out to establish a multi-theoretical framework which enables the investigation
    of emerging phenomena of the role of numbers in social networking sites. The proposed
    framework rests on three theoretical pillars: self-determination theory, heuristic
    decision making and behavioural economics. A discussion departs from these convictions
    to investigate user reactions and behaviour when faced with numerical representations
    in the SNS.'
