Abstract: By using the web crawler technology, the “Octopus” data collector was used to capture the citizen network appeal and government response information of Xinjiang “local leader message board” from 2011 to 2020 as sample data. Automatic text analysis, comparative analysis, spatial analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the behavioral characteristics of citizens' online appeals and government responses. The results showed that the awareness of citizens to express their demands through the Internet was gradually increasing, but the overall response rate of the government was low. The temporal and spatial factors, topic type factors and expression mode factors of citizen network appeals had different degrees of influence on local government response. The system, government and citizens were the three major factors of cyberspace political interaction.

Key words: government response, citizen appeal, big data, Xinjiang
