The most recent search was conducted on February 18, 2025. Two independent reviewers screened studies using standardized criteria and extracted study characteristics via Covidence. Inter-rater reliability was found to be (Cohen\u2019s \u03ba\u2009=\u20090.63). Of 742 initial records, 16 studies met the inclusion criteria.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>All included studies (16\/16; 100%) used X (formerly Twitter) as the data source. Analytical approaches were natural language processing (n\u2009=\u200912), topic modeling (n\u2009=\u20098), and sentiment analysis (n\u2009=\u20096). Most studies were US-based (n\u2009=\u200912) and examined direct exposure (eg, witnessing shootings) and indirect exposure (eg, media coverage). Key informatics applications included sentiment detection, temporal discourse pattern analysis, and computational methods for evaluating community-level impacts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Findings revealed significant methodological homogeneity, with overreliance on X and limited use of longitudinal designs.
