Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:There are certain limitations in our study. Only two cancer-SSAs and their Facebook posts were included in our study. Thus, our findings may not be representative of other cancer-SSAs or other social media platforms. Regardless, Facebook is the most popular social media platform with the highest number of monthly active users. Thus, analyzing Facebook posts would be the most efficient option compared to analyzing other platforms [50]. Another point to note was that the survivorship care model used in this study focused on providing care and support to cancer survivors whilst this study looked at both cancer patients and the general public. Some aspects of the model such as ‘Robust adaptive patient assessment program’ did not apply to cancer-SSAs as their extent of support and care do not including assessing the health issues of cancer patients. Nevertheless, most aspects of the model were applicable in the context of cancer-SSAs providing support and services to their beneficiaries and the general public. This research can be extended in future studies for analyzing all cancer-SSAs or focus on other social media platforms utilized by these cancer-SSAs such as YouTube or Instagram. Another potential topic for further studies includes analyzing the level of follower engagement achieved through these posts to ascertain whether the cancer-SSAs have successfully achieved an optimum level of engagement with their beneficiaries and the general public.
