- Abstract
- The article reviews the emerging field of algorithmic literacy, focusing on how well users understand the algorithms that shape social media and digital communication platforms. It highlights the conceptual and methodological diversity in existing research, partly due to the opaque “black box” nature of algorithmic systems. The authors synthesize current definitions, measurement approaches, and theories of human–algorithm interaction.
