Accompanied by the development of digital media, the threat of informationcocoon has become a significant issue. However, little is known about themeasure of information cocoon as a cultural space and its relationship withsocial class. This study addresses this problem by constructing the culturalspace with word embedding models and random shuffling methods among threelarge-scale digital media use datasets. In the light of field theory ofcultural production, we investigate the information cocoon effect on differentsocial classes among 979 computer users, 100,000 smartphone users, and 159,373mobile reading application users. Our analysis reveals that information cocoonswidely exist in the daily use of digital media. Moreover, people of lowersocial class have a higher probability of getting stuck in the informationcocoon filled with the entertainment content. In contrast, the people of highersocial class have more capability to stride over the constraints of theinformation cocoon. The results suggest that the disadvantages for vulnerablegroups in acquiring knowledge may further widen social inequality.
