Stock Images: "Man + Computer"

These are two of the top results for a search of the words “computer man” in a stock image archive. The image on the top appeared second on the search list in terms of relevance, and the image on the bottom appeared third. Since both images came from a stock images archive, the website that hosts the images tracks both downloads and views of all images on the website and that information is clearly visible. The image on the top has 40 downloads and 1297 Views, and the image on the bottom has 49 downloads and 2192 views. While the download counts are similar, the views are significantly different which suggests that the image on the bottom is more popular. This supports the idea presented in my paper that ethnic self-identification serves to give content greater value.
