摘　　要：在对信息偏食、观点极化、谣言传播等问题的研究过程中,信息茧房成为学者关注的热点话题,但也存在诸多研究争议。为厘清信息茧房概念及其演化过程,本文从同质化困境这一重要问题出发,回顾总结国内外研究成果,从选择同质化、内容同质化和群体同质化三个角度对信息茧房概念及其领域内相关问题进行梳理。在此基础上,根据用户、技术、信息和社会四要素的互动,构建了基于同质化视角的信息茧房理论框架,并从人际扩散和技术助推两个层面解读同质化困境的形成路径,最终形成从信息窄化到群体极化的茧房效应演化过程。该框架旨在对信息茧房“有态而无形”的概念内涵提供理论解析,对现有研究争议的原因进行阐释,以期为未来研究提供可参考的量化思路和研究切入点,并为治理实践提供借鉴。Due to information bias,opinion polarization and misinformation spreading,information cocoons have become a hot topic concerned by scholars,but research controversies also occurred.For example,while some think that the information cocoons make people trapped in the dilemma of obtaining information and even thinking,others think information cocoons are not significant enough to worry about.Since the concept"information cocoons"is a vivid metaphor description of specific social issue,boundary of the concept is not clear yet,and this brings problems such as measurement difficulties and research controversies.Research on information cocoons needs a precise and clear description of the concept so as to clarify what we are working on and construct an evolution process.This paper begins with an important problem,which is homogenization dilemma,and reviews literatures home and abroad to sort out the information cocoons concept and homogeneity problems in related researches into three perspectives:homogeneity of selection,homogeneity of content and homogeneity of group.Based on four elements including user,technology,information,and society,this article constructs a theoretical framework of information cocoons,and interprets the formation path of homogenization dilemma from two aspects:interpersonal diffusion and technology assistance.The framework also reveals the process of cocoon effect which develops from information narrowing to group polarization.During the process,this paper points out that homogeneity of content develops from user's homogeneity of selection.Based on these two kinds of homogeneity,homogeneity of group forms in a more complex way,with the element social involved.This paper aims to provide a theoretical analysis of the concept of information cocoons so as to explain the controversy of current research and to be a reference for quantitative and penetration point in future research.As is pointed out in this article,empirical studies on one kind of homogeneity problem,such as homogeneity of content,cann
