It attempts to locate the role of linguistic spin in the propagation of desired ideologies to the target readership. In this regard fourteen different newspapers, nine of them Pakistani (Dawn, Daily Times, Pakistan Observer, e-dawn, Jang, Daily Express, The News, The Nation, Ausaf, three Indian (The Times of India, The Indian Express, Hindustan Express) and two European (Tribune, The Washington Post) have randomly been selected to show how an event is discursively represented by different national and international newspapers through their headlines. It employs triangular model for the analysis at different levels. Fairclough (1993) emphases the social aspects, Van Dijk (2004) deals with the cognitive perspectives whereas, Wodak (2001) focuses on language use in historical perspective. The rationale behind this tri-angulation is that existing data carries social, cognitive and historical perspectives. The findings of the research highlight that religious, socio-political conditions and the historical perspectives are politicized through the loaded discourse(s) of print media to represent the same event differently by employing insidious weapon of language. This is how print media serves as a distorting prism to reflect the mirror image to the masses. Keywords: CDA, Headlines/Post Titles, Ideologies, Representation. 1 Center for Languages and Translational Studies Introduction Print media has become a significant social agent for the investment and propagation of different ideologies. It plays a significant role in highlighting the dominant social and discursive practices around us. Moreover, it serves as an ideological tool in the representation of a same or different event in accordance with its target readership. Newspapers are the oldest form of media and were considered the sole source of information before the advent of electronic media. Therefore, the importance of newspapers as a powerful source of information is still very much there. The Newspapers report an event is mostly politicized and the process of media representation of same event varies from country to country depending upon their cultural, political, economic, contextual and ideological backgrounds. Newspapers can influence people's perception in a desired manner. Ideologies are formulated in a society as a result of a long process which takes hundreds of years to develop. Discursive practices, institutions of the state, the vested interests of the powerful groups of the society and the religious beliefs all contribute to shape ideologies of the people. Discourse, being the battle ground where the struggle for power takes place as a result of its manipulation by the ruling group of the society has the most important role to play in the context. Newspapers' discourse has very effective role to play especially in the under developed countries of the third world. Discoursal practices of the newspapers are the result of long held cultural backgrounds and the traditions of any society. Hence, the discourse of newspapers not only reflects the ideologies of the particular social group but also has the power to shape, reshape or distort the perception of reality of its individuals. Post Titles of Newspapers The post titles are a very important type of text. It has a vast range of functions which dictates its context, shape and structure. It encapsulates the story in minimum number of words and also attracts the readers to the story. It is considered to be the gist of the most important part of the newspaper. A reader can skim the headlines and have an outline of the news of the day and some idea of its relative impact and importance (Reah, 2001) Lexical words are more useful in headlines than grammatical words which may cause ambiguity in some cases. Yet, they serve three functions. Firstly, they provide a brief summary of the main news, secondly, they attract the attention and thirdly, they often provide an initial indicator in its content and style. These are an important part of presenting the news in a way in which the newspaper appeals its readers. Hence, Newspapers are a source of exercising power and headlines as the source of forming ideologies as Sheyholislami (2001) says that themes and topics are realized in 2 Center for Languages and Translational Studies headlines and lead paragraph. Dijk (1998) argues that headlines depict the unity of discourse and are a source of information which is easily memorized by the reader. He claims that the readers having their own beliefs and ideas generally “adopt these subjective media definitions of what is important information about an event” (p.248). Post titles are the most important form of genre. They serve as the mini- advertisement of the work. Headline is the “Text” indicating the nature of the article below it. Its purpose is to quickly and briefly draw attention to the story. The most important story on the front page usually possesses larger headline if the story is of usual significance. Language is no longer seen as merely reflecting out reality, but as central to creating reality (Taiwo 2004). Abastado (1980, p.49) argues “headlines encapsulate not only the content but the orientation, the perspective that the readers should bring to their understanding of the article.” Headlines are a particularly rich source of information about the field of cultural references. This is because titles can “stand alone”. They tell the story in fewest possible words following the policy of telling and selling the newspapers. Critical Discourse

  • Construction of Moral Disengagement Scale for Adults: a Reliable Measure
    Pakistan Journal of Psychological Research, 2021, Vol. 36, No. 2, 199-223 , https://doi:org/10.33824/ PJPR.2021.36.2.12 Construction of Moral Disengagement Scale for Adults: A Reliable Measure Ayesha Saif and Saima Riaz University of Gujrat The main objective of current research was development of an indigenous Moral Disengagement Scale for Adults (MDS-A) in Urdu language. The subsequent objective was the establishment of reliability of newly developed Scale. Initially an item pool of 116 items was formulated based on Bandura’s model (2002) which was reduced to 106 items and later 92 items after expert’s evaluation and item analysis, respectively. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) was conducted on 92 items scale by administering it on 579 adults (250 men and 329 women), age range of 19-83 years from villages and various educational institutes of district Gujrat, Pakistan. EFA by using Principal Component Analysis with Varimax Orthogonal Rotation resulted in six factor solution of 63 items. Later Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) confirmed the six-factor structure on an independent sample of 413 adults (193 men and 220 women) with age range 19-80 years from Gujrat district, Pakistan. After deletion of 43 items, CFA yielded good model fit indices for final 20 items MDS-A. MDS-A had very satisfactory Cronbach’s alpha reliability and test-retest reliability. MDS-A also demonstrated construct validity in terms of highly significant item- total correlations and subscale-to-scale total correlations. Overall, a reliable and valid scale for measurement of moral disengagement among adults in Pakistani culture is available for further indigenous research and counselling settings.
