This manuscript is a resubmission of an earlier submission. The following is a list of the peer review reports and author responses from that submission.


Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

There is a substantial lack of literature review in this paper.

There should be an Ethics Committee approval.

The analysis is more descriptive and would need better statistical analysis. Kruskal-Wallis analysis does not bring any added value.

The discussion is very short, and not many surprising outputs can be found from it.

There is no part on the limitations of the study.

Reviewer 2 Report

Many thanks for providing me with the opportunity to read your interesting study. I have some suggestions in order to help you improve your article, and wish you the best of luck in this regard.

 

-       First, I would like to see the gaps in the introduction section emphasized. What prompted you to perform this research? What are the unanswered questions in the existing literature, and how will you address to these queries? Please emphasize the originality and uniqueness of the study.  I do not think you answered the three important questions that an effective research motive/objective should answer (Grant & Pollock, 2011): Who cares? What do we know, what don't we know, and so what? And what will we learn? Please pay attention aforesaid points in the introduction section.  

-       As the authors stated, transversal study was designed in which they  followed and analyzed the posts of 60 the 16 most followed Instamoms in Spain.
 To ensure that this study was conducted in a scientific manner, the authors need to prove that both data collection and interpretation of the analysis were made scientifically. Regarding the data collection, the authors may be able to clarify their search strategy, as researchers typically do in a high quality study.

 
- There are a few too many unsubstantiated/uncited statements - please be careful with this. Theoretical implications are light. I would expect to see greater attention paid to demonstrating the theoretical contribution of your work. Please revisit this.
