Bilgisayar teknolojileri ve internet insanlararsı etkileşim için yeni standartlar belirlemiş ve bireylere iletişim alanında yeni ufuklar açmıştır. Bunun sonucunda bireylerin etraflarını çevreleyen dünyayı algısı etkilenmektedir. Bu durmadan değişen çevre gözönüne alındığında iletişim teorilerinin tekrar gözden geçirilmesi ve eleştirel düşünme yaklaşımıyla akademisyenlerce tekrar değerlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu sayede teorilerin günümüz konjonktürünü açıklayabilme kapasitesi de denenmiş olacaktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı suskunluk sarmalı teorisine ve bilgisayar aracılı iletişim ortamlarına odaklanan araştırmaları gözden geçirerek bir literliteratureması oluşturmaktır. Sonuçlar göstermektedir ki suskunluk sarmalı, bilgisayar aracılı iletişim ortamlarının bireyleri sosyal yaptırımlardan kurtaran yapısına ragmen görülebilmektedir.

Computer technologies and Internet set new standards for interaction and let people explore new horizons in the field of communication. As a consequence, individual’s perception of the world surrounding his/herself may be affected. Considering this ever-evolving climate of change, communication theories have to be revisited and efforts of critical thinking should be made by scholars in order to keep theories up-to-date or determine them as not capable of explaining contemporary conjuncture. The purpose of this study is to review previous research studies focused on computer mediated communication and spiral of silence. Results show that spiral of silence may occur despite characteristics of computer mediated communication that can liberate individuals from social sanctions.
