Echo Chambers and Information Cocoons have become the subject of a multifaceted academic debate – ranging from the proper conceptualization and delineation of related concepts, to questions about their prevalence and uniqueness in the online environment, to arguments about their societal impact and the role of digital technologies. This study presents a systematic literature review that analyzes the existing research to synthesize relevant findings and build the missing foundations of these phenomena. This study follows a hermeneutic analytical approach to the literature to clarify and model the distinction between information cocoons and echo chambers. Furthermore, we summarize the selected literature and identify existing knowledge gaps to outline future research opportunities.
