1648 Bauer, L. and Renouf, A. A corpus-based study of compounding in English. Journal of English Linguistics 29(2):101-123, June 2001. LANGUAGE USE. LINGUISTICS. NEWSPAPERS. It is long established that corpus-based studies force the linguist-analyst to come face-to-face with a number of phenomena that might easily be overlooked in an armchair-type study. In this article, the authors demonstrate the validity of this truism once again in a study of English compounding patterns. The authors report in this paper on a study of word-formation patterns in words from a large corpus of British newspaper English. In this article, the authors consider only new compound forma- tions, and they show that considering real data can cause problems for the theoretician of word-formation and for the descriptive grammarian alike. Not only do they report on patterns that are not described in the major handbooks but they show that some of the patterns that are being used productively in the English of the early 1990s break principles that are laid down as absolute in some of the theoretical works.

1649 Boone, R. T. and Cunningham, J. G. Children’s expression of emotional meaning in musicthrough expressive body movement. Journal of Nonverbal Behavior 25(1):21-41, Spring 2001. CHILDREN. EMOTION. MUSIC RESEARCH. NONVERBAL BEHAVIOR. Recent research has demonstrated that preschool children can decode emotional meaning in expressive body movement; however, to date, no research has considered preschool children’s ability to encode emotional meaning in this media. This study investigated children who were 4 (N = 23) and 5 (N = 24) years of age and looked at their ability to encode the emotional meaning of an accompanying music segment by moving a teddy bear using previously modeled expressive movements to indicate one of four target emotions (happiness, sadness, anger, or fear). Adult judges visually cat- egorized the silent videotaped expressive movement performances by children of both ages with greater than chance level accuracy. In addition, accuracy in categoriz- ing the emotion being expressed varied as a function of age of child and emotion. A subsequent cue analysis revealed that children as young as age 4 were systematically varying their expressive movements with respect to force, rotation, shifts in move- ment pattern, tempo, and upward movement in the process of emotional communica- tion. The theoretical significance of such encoding ability is discussed with respect to children’s nonverbal skills and the communication of emotion.

Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2001, pp. 347-382. $125.00/$70.00. ATTITUDE FORMATION. LANGUAGE. LINGUISTICS. Language attitudes are typically inferred from hearers’ evaluative reactions to speech variations. Although they are central to human communication, their social scientific study has been reported mainly in journals outside of the communication 744 Communication Abstracts discipline. This chapter first reviews the multidisciplinary work in the area that has looked to evaluations of speakers as a means of assessing language attitudes. Although this research has resulted in pragmatically interesting generalizations, more recent research and theorizing suggests that such generalizations may be limited due to assumptions and methodologies that neglect the complex process through which language attitudes reveal themselves. An emergent understanding of the speaker- evaluation process is discussed and represented by a recently developed model. The authors’ assessment of the area concludes with suggested directions for future research.

1651 Costa, M., Menzani, M., and Bitti, P.E.R.Head canting in paintings: a historical study. Journal of Nonverbal Behavior 25(1):63-73, Spring 2001. HEAD CANTING. NONVERBAL BEHAVIOR. PAINTINGS. Head canting, a lateral shift of the head toward the shoulder axis, was examined in 1,498 figures in the complete works of 11 painters from the 14th to the 20th centuries. All figures that were not in complete profile and that were not depicted bowing or shifting their bodies were selected for analysis. The analysis found a higher frequency (49%) of head canting in paintings than previously reported in naturalistic settings. Head canting was significantly higher in female figures than male figures. If a figure’s head was facing laterally, head canting was more likely to be to the contralateral side. Head canting was lower in older figures than in figures of children, youths, or adults. The highest level of head canting was seen in religious and mythological figures. Head canting was lower in figures of artists and professionals and virtually absent in depictions of nobles. Figures in pose were depicted with less head canting than those in natural settings. Head canting was lower in figures gazing toward the observer. Single-figure portraits head canted less than did subjects in multiple-figure paintings. Author analysis revealed that head canting was pronounced in painters of religious subjects and in modern painters, whereas its degree was reduced in official portrait painters.

1652 de Gaynesford, M. Object dependence in language and thought. Language & Com- munication 21(2):183-207, April 2001. COGNITIVE PROCESSES. LANGUAGE. PERCEPTION. SEMANTICS. In this paper, the author shows that the semantics of perceptual demonstrative terms elucidate the thoughts they express in virtue of two related considerations. First, ascribing the thoughts in question only makes sense in cases in which we have criteria for identifying thoughts in communication. Second, the semantic information content of singularly referring statements—whatever makes them semantically valuable— corresponds to the content of thoughts about some one thing among others in the world. In both cases, it is this content that is asserted, which is assessable as true or false, and whose truth value depends on that one thing referred to or thought about. Thus, the correspondence between singular thought and singular reference is suffi- ciently deep to justify elucidating the former by the semantic conditions governing the latter.

1653 Fishman, S. M. and McCarthy, L. An ESL writer and her discipline-based professor: making progress even when goals do not match. Written Communication 18(2):180-228, April 2001. COLLEGE STUDENTS. ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE. WRITTEN COMMUNICATION. This study by a philosophy professor and a compositionist focuses on the progress of an English as a Second Language (ESL) student in the philosopher’s writing-inten- sive introductory course. In it, the authors’ answer calls for examination of instruc- tional supports that help ESL students in their college classes across the curriculum. Their report is divided into three parts. In the first part, the philosophy professor expli- cates his classroom aims and expectations, rooting them in the education approaches of Dewey, Freire, and Gramsci. In the second, the compositionist offers an account of the ESL pupil’s experiences in this philosophy classroom, describing the pedagogies that promote her progress toward achieving the professor’s goals. In the final section, the authors, acknowledging the contested nature of “progress” in this context, describe the ideological conflicts behind their different interpretations of the suc- cesses and failures of this ESL student.

1654 Glock, H.-J. Intentionality and language. Language & Communication 21(2):105-118, April 2001. CONTENT ANALYSIS. INTENTIONALITY. LANGUAGE. In this essay, the author’s aim is not to provide a comprehensive sketch of the con- temporary debate on intentionality. In particular, the author does not cover the exten- sive debate about the alleged intentionality or hyperintentionality of intentional state- ments, a commonly accepted phenomenon that Rundle disputes. Instead, the author’s aim is to situate and complement the essays of the other contributors and to draw attention to some neglected issues. The author first discusses the question of what it is we believe. Section 2 turns to the relation between the intentionality of language and the intentionality of the mind. In section 3, the author discusses problems of con- tent-determination. The author concludes by intimating a hitherto underestimated connected between intentionality and human responsibility, a connection that consti- tutes a severe challenge to both externalism and naturalism.

1655 Hacker, P.M.S.An orrery of intentionality. Language & Communication 21(2):119-141, April 2001. INTENTIONALITY. INTENTIONAL VERBS. LANGUAGE. ORRERY. The philosophical interest of the logico-grammatical features of intentional verbs is great. A large range of puzzles clusters around them. These puzzles are interwoven, and the solution or resolution of any one of them affects (or infects) the solution or res- olution of all the others. In this paper, the author attempts to survey them. A clear pic- ture of the problems will also serve to rule out many proposed solutions. The battery of puzzles can be presented in the form of a series of concentric circles centered on the focal point of a cluster that the author refers to as the problems of the relation of thought to reality. This might be viewed as the central sun around which related prob- lems circle like the plants of an antique orrery. 746 Communication Abstracts

1656 Hancock, J. T. and Dunham, P. J. Impression formation in computer-mediated com- munication revisited: an analysis of the breadth and intensity of impressions. Com- munication Research 28(3):325-347, June 2001. COMPUTER-MEDIATED COMMUNICATION. IMPRESSION MANAGEMENT. Following either a text-based, synchronous computer-mediated conversation (CMC) or a face-to-face dyadic interaction, 80 participants rated their partners’ per- sonality profile. Impressions were assessed in terms of both their breadth (the com- prehensiveness of the impression) and intensity (the magnitude of the attributions). Results indicated that impressions formed in the CMC environment were less detailed but more intense than those formed face-to-face. These data provide support for theo- ries that, in addition to acknowledging the unique constraints and characteristics of CMC, consider the cognitive strategies and heuristics involved in the impression for- mation process. The differential impact of a text-based medium on trait-specific impressions (e.g., extraversion, neuroticism) is also discussed in the context of a cross-modal approach to impression formation.

1657 Johnstone, C. L. Communicating in classical contexts: the centrality of delivery. Quarterly Journal of Speech 87(2):121-143, May 2001. ARISTOTLE. PUBLIC SPEAKING. RHETORIC. The contemporary aversion to or disinterest in orality, performance, and delivery in the study of rhetoricand publicaddress ignores the centralityof these elements in the history and prehistory of the discipline. This oversight is particularly puzzling when we consider scholarly examinations of the origins and early development of rhetoric in Greece. Although various studies of the Older Sophists seek to reconstruct their doctrines and teachings, none makes clear that at least some of these teachers of the speaker’s art must have recognized the importance of delivery, especially the importance of using the voice to exploit the sound and rhythms of words and the acoustical features of the physical settings in which oratory was performed. Fragmen- tary textual evidence prior to Aristotle’s suggests that some of the Older Soph- ists—most conspicuously Thrasymachus, Antiphon, and Gorgias—must have been interested in delivery and may have given some instruction in it. Archaeological evi- dence concerning 5th-century Athenian speaking settings is even more suggestive, and it permits us to infer several things about the kind of vocal training that these teachers probably provided.

1658 Karetnick, R. D. Constructing the self through modification of convention in com- puter-mediated environments. New Jersey Journal of Communication 9(1):88-102, Spring 2001. COMPUTER-MEDIATED COMMUNICATION. IDENTITY. SELF-CONCEPT. TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION. There exists a belief that the modern world, in which computers are so prevalent, “radically alters the nature of day-to-day social life and affects the most personal aspects of our experience” (Giddens, 1991). Such a belief has been reflected in recent literature, suggesting that the on-line world is one characterized by creative and Communication Processes 747 innovative behavior. This research addresses the issue of how participants construct identity given technological advances that allow for participatory behavior no longer subject to the same physical or moral constraints found in face-to-face interactions. Findings suggest that the individual choice inherent in strategic use of programmed convention is not in fact welcome behavior. Virtual spaces emerge as being about far more than what individuals can do there based on technology. Such worlds are also apparently embedded in a larger set of cultural practices carried over from traditional face-to-face contexts.

1659 Kemmerling, A. Burge on the individuation of intentional states. Language & Com- munication 21(2):177-182, April 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. INDIVIDUATION. INTENTIONALITY. Individualism about intentional states, for the purposes of this paper, is the doc- trine that these states are individualistically individuated. That is to say, the fact that a person is in any given intentional state does not presuppose anything about his or her physical or social environment; moreover, what it is for an individual to be in this state can be explicated by reference to states of the individual that can be specified without using intentional terminology at all. According to Burge, individuation of intentional state types both in our ordinary discourse and in actual current psychology is nonindividualistic. The author leaves aside the question as to whether Burge is right about what cognitive psychologists actually do and mean to be doing. Instead, the author concentrates on his account of the relationship between ordinary mentalistic discourse and individualism about intentional states. Burge holds that “intentional states as specified in ordinary mentalistic discourse are individuated nonindividual- istically.” This claim is central for Burge’s anti-individualism, and the author thinks it is mistaken. For intentional states as given in ordinary mentalisticdiscourseare not individuated sufficiently clearly to support Burge’s claim.

1660 Leggett, M. and Finlay, M. Science, story, and image: a new approach to crossing the communication barrier posed by scientific jargon. Public Understanding of Science 10(2):157-171, April 2001. ENERGY CONSERVATION. JARGON. SCIENCE COMMUNICATION. TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION. The Kyoto Protocol has forced governments and power utilities to consider renew- able energy sources. Because these changes have political, social, and environmental consequences, it is important to understand nonscientists’perceptions of the problem and possible solutions. The authors have developed a way of overcoming barriers to communication posed by technical language, using images as a focus for the discus- sion of issues that participants associate with our current use of energy and its possible future uses. Participants select images, describe the significance of these images, and tell their own story of renewable energy. Further exploration is carried out through the use of follow-up interviews. This way of working has demonstrated its effectiveness by revealing an interesting diversity and depth in participants’ understanding of renewable energy. In particular, it has revealed the complex way in which participants move between the human, technological, ethical, social, emotional, and spiritual aspects of energy. 748 Communication Abstracts

1661 McClure, E. B. and Nowicki, S., Jr. Associations between social anxiety and nonver- bal processing skill in preadolescent boys and girls. Journal of Nonverbal Behavior 25(1):3-19, Spring 2001. ANXIETY. CHILDREN. FACIAL EXPRESSIONS. NONVERBAL BEHAVIOR. SOCIAL ANXIETY. This study was designed to investigate the potential association between social anxiety and children’s ability to decode nonverbal emotional cues. Participants were 62 children between 8 and 10 years of age who completed self-report measures of social anxiety, depressive symptomatology, and nonspecific symptomatology as well as nonverbal decoding tasks assessing accuracy at identifying emotion in facial expressions and vocal tones. Data were analyzed with multiple regression analyses controlling for generalized cognitive ability and nonspecific anxious and depressive symptomatology. Results provided partial support for the hypothesis that social anxi- ety would relate to nonverbal decoding accuracy. Difficulty identifying emotions con- veyed in children’s and adult’s voices was associated with general social avoidance and distress. At higher levels of social anxiety, children more frequently mislabeled fearful voices as sad. Possible explanations for the obtained results were explored.

1662 Millikan, R. G. The language-thought partnership: a bird’s eye view. Language & Communication 21(2):157-166, April 2001. COGNITIVE PROCESSES. LANGUAGE. LANGUAGE USE. In this paper, the author tries to sketch in miniature the whole of her work on the relations between language and thought. The author offers close-ups of this terrain in various papers and books that she references freely. She focuses on the relations among the parts, hoping to provide a short introduction to her work on language and thought for some, and for others a clarification of the larger plan. The author takes lan- guage and thought to stand largely parallel to one another. For example, the intentionality of each is defined independently of that of the other—thought is possi- ble without language, and language is possible that does not convey thought. On the other hand, publiclanguage is not merely a stimulus to the development of thought but a constitutive of developed human thought. These are the relations the author hopes to clarify.

1663 Rundle, B. Objects and attitudes. Language & Communication 21(2):143-156, April 2001. COGNITIVE PROCESSES. LANGUAGE. LANGUAGE USE. NOUN CLAUSE. VERBS. The phrase “verb of propositional attitude” may be no more than a label used to identify psychological verbs that occur in association with a noun clause, as in “fears that lightning will strike” or “believes that the end of the world is nigh.” However, the phrase is more than a mere label in so far as it suggests a certain conception of the role of these verbs in this context. They supposedly signify an attitude toward something, some intentional object, whether it be a proposition conceived of as an abstract entity or as a more concrete sentence, as couched in the language of thought or as found in a natural language. The general conception is so widespread as to be part of the very framework in which much discussion of issues in the philosophy of mind, or in Communication Processes 749 cognitive science, proceeds. In so far as it is queried, this is because of difficulties associated with the notion of a proposition, with the object of the attitude. We shall find, however, that it is as much the seemingly more innocent notion of an attitude itself that proves to be the real culprit. Somewhat paradoxically, it is precisely when the idea of an attitude toward a proposition is most readily invoked with respect to a given verb, V, that the construction “A Vs that p” is least likely to be applicable. The clausal construction does not introduce an object toward which an attitude is taken but provides an indirect rendering of words with which an attitude is expressed. In work- ing toward this conclusion, the author touches on a number of topics that merit fuller discussion.

1664 Stoecker, R. How individual are intentional states really? Language & Communica- tion 21(2):167-175, April 2001. INDIVIDUALISM. INTENTIONALITY. LANGUAGE. LANGUAGE USE. On the doctrine of individualism in the philosophy of mind, all mental properties are intrinsicproperties. There are, on one hand, good intuitive epistemicand meta - physical reasons for individualism. On the other hand, there is Tyler Burge’s well-known arthritis thought experiment that shows that a paradigmatical group of mental phenomena, the intentional attitudes, aren’t intrinsicfeatures of a person. Jerry Fodor has made a proposal to reconcile Burge’s argument with individualism by regarding intentional attitudes as directed toward sentences of a separate language of thought, which is innate and more fundamental than our common public language. Unfortunately, there are insurmountable problems conjoint with this idea. However, it may still be worthwhile to follow Fodor’s account halfway, that is, to accept that inten- tional attitudes rely on a person’s language of thought, yet to concentrate on her real, occurrent thought and to give center stage to the natural language she uses for her everyday reflections and deliberations. The article closes with a sketch of what such a theory of intentional attitudes might look like and particularly how far it could cope with the arguments for individualism, although it construes intentional attitudes not as intrinsic but as extrinsic features of a person.

1665 Watts, E. K. “Voice and voicelessness” in rhetorical studies. Quarterly Journal of Speech 87(2):179-196, May 2001. RHETORICAL STUDIES. VOICE. VOICELESSNESS. The author attempts to accomplish two tasks in this essay. First, the author expli- cates the alternative senses of “voice” in rhetorical studies. His goal is to demonstrate that significant conceptual confusion exists regarding the phenomenon of voice that can be perceived along traditional borders between la parole and la langue. By clari- fying how voice is conceived differently in terms of speaking and language, this essay discloses how the inattention to the quandary over voice clouds the more central ques- tion of the value of voice to rhetoric. Second, the author performs a critical analysis of a case study so as to offer a sort of middle passage for the resonances of voice. Rather than conceptualize voice as strictly a possession of the subjects or an effect of the lin- guistic, the author posits the concept of voice as a relational phenomenon occurring in discourse. In this manner, voice is not reducible to the subject’s agency nor does it reflect a limitless range of signification. Voice, in this explication, is constitutive of ethical and emotional dimensions that make it an answerable phenomenon. Thus, 750 Communication Abstracts voice is the enunciation and the acknowledgment of the obligations and anxieties of living in a community with others.

INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION AND RELATIONS

1666 Banning, S. A. Do you see what I see? Third-person effects on public communication through self-esteem, social stigma, and product use. Mass Communication & Society 4(2):127-147, Spring 2001. PUBLIC OPINION. SELF-ESTEEM. STIGMA. THIRD-PERSON EFFECT. In this experiment, the author examined the effect of self-esteem, negative stigma of product in a message, and product use as a form of ego-involvement on the third-person effect in an effort to understand the variables underlying the third-person effect. The findings broaden one belief about the third-person effect in relation to pub- lic communication and call into question two others. This has ramifications in the area of public opinion regarding socially stigmatized messages, particularly in the realm of tobacco and alcohol advertising, suggesting the perception that a publicly communi- cated message containing a social stigma can influence the level of the third-person effect, indirectly affecting public communication and opinion formation.

1667 Chang, H.-C. Harmony as performance: the turbulence under Chinese interpersonal communication. Discourse Studies 3(2):155-179, May 2001. CHINESE. CHINESE LANGUAGE. INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION. INTERPERSONAL COMPETITION. This article explores how “social harmony” as cultural performance is conducted by the Chinese in their conversation at the surface level, with turbulence and manipu- lation concealed beneath superficial politeness. Although their more collective cul- tural orientation may lead them to greater cooperation and less confrontation, the Chi- nese also develop artfully crafted messages to communicate competition and frustration. Selected discourse samples collected in Taiwan were analyzed in depth to show how social harmony may become a matter of external display constructed, enacted, and negotiated through participants’ verbal exchanges in their moment-to-moment interaction. It is concluded that superficial harmony allows the extensive web of interpersonal connections and hierarchical positioning to be main- tained with minimal discord, while concealing underlying aggressiveness and ulterior motives.

1668 Cotterill, J. Domestic discord, rocky relationships: semantic prosodies in representa- tions of marital violence in the O. J. Simpson trial. Discourse & Society 12(4):291- 312, May 2001. COURTROOM PROCEDURE. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISCOURSE STRATEGIES. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. O. J. SIMPSON TRIAL. This article addresses one of the central concerns of the forensic linguist: the anal- ysis of courtroom discourse and the identification of potentially discriminatory lin- guistic practices within the criminal justice system. This critical linguistic analysis examines the semanticprosodies of some of the words and phrases used to describe Interpersonal Communication and Relations 751 domestic violence at trial, a key issue in the O. J. Simpson double homicide case. The article considers data from the 100,000 word opening arguments of the criminal trial and contrasts the respective lexical representations of domestic violence in the prose- cution and defense arguments. Drawing on data from Cobuild Bank of English, this article studies the prosodies of the constructs presented by both sides in their conflict- ing representations of domestic violence against women in the courtroom context.

1669 Hastings, S. O. Self-disclosure and identity management by bereaved parents. Com- munication Studies 51(4):352-371, Winter 2000. BEREAVEMENT. CHILD DEATH. IDENTITY. PARENTAL BEREAVEMENT. SELF-DISCLOSURE. This paper studies constraints on self-disclosure in interactions between bereaved parents and “civilians,” or those who are not bereaved parents. The problem of self-disclosure is examined through the lens of relevant face concerns. Bereaved- civilian interactions are treated as a form of intercultural communication due to differ- ing cultural identities and rules for communication. In analyzing communicative con- straints, five motivations for self-disclosure are explored for the potential interactional difficulties they create between bereaved parents and civilians. Motiva- tions examined are relationship development and enhancement, reciprocity, social control (also called “impression formation”), self-clarification, and expression (also called “catharsis”). Self-disclosure is a salient form of communication for the bereaved parent because it is through this process that a fractured identity is healed.

1670 Honeycutt, J. M. and Ford, S. G. Mental imagery and interpersonal communication: a review of research on imagined interactions (IIs) and current developments. Gudykunst, W. B., ed. Communication Yearbook 25. Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associ- ates, 2001, pp. 315-345. $125.00/$70.00. COGNITIVE PROCESSES. INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION. RESEARCH TRENDS. Imagined interactions (IIs) are a type of social cognition and mental imagery grounded in symbolic interactionism in which individuals imagine conversations with significant others for a variety of purposes. The II construct has provided a bene- ficial mechanism for operationalizing the study of intrapersonal communication. IIs are a type of daydreaming that have definitive characteristics and serve a number of functions, including rehearsal, self-understanding, relational maintenance, managing conflict, catharsis, and compensation. For example, the conflict management func- tion explains how conflict is difficult to manage in everyday life such that it is hard to “forgive and forget.” Over a decade of research is reviewed in terms of requisite char- acteristics and functions. Current and future research endeavors are discussed.

Communication Studies 52(1):1-16, Spring 2001. COMPLIANCE-GAINING STRATEGIES. RESISTANT BEHAVIOR. This study’s purpose is to assess the impact of target’s compliance-resistance strat- egies on the actor’s behavioral and evaluative responses. It is proposed that the actors 752 Communication Abstracts have certain expectations about the compliance-gaining interaction based on their perceptions of rights to seek compliance. Resistance strategies vary in negative valence and affect actors’ perceptions of expectancy violations and subsequent evaluative and behavioral responses. Expectancy violations theory provides a predic- tive rationale for these responses of the actor. A model is tested in which valence of the target’s compliance resistance strategy and the actor’s perceived rights are found to predict positive expectancy violations, evaluations of the resistance message, and intentions to pursue the targets’ compliance.

Jour- nal of Nonverbal Behavior 25(1):43-62, Spring 2001. ETHNOLOGY. GENDER DIFFERENCES. NONVERBAL BEHAVIOR. SPORTS. TOUCHING BEHAVIOR. Little research exists regarding sex differences in touching behavior in sport or recreational settings. This study investigates sex differences in amount, types, and factors influencing same-sex touching in a sport context. Participants were 119 mem- bers of four men’s college varsity basketball teams and 52 members of three women’s college varsity softball teams. All touches performed on-field between team members were recorded and classified using an ethogram designed for this study. As hypothe- sized, statistically significant differences were found in the following areas: females performed more touching behaviors than males, almost half of the behavior types observed were performed more frequently by one sex than the other, males performed touching behaviors more frequently at away than home games, females performed touching behaviors more frequently at home than away game events, and females per- formed more touching behaviors than males after negative game events. The findings and implications are discussed in relation to the touching behavior literature, ethol- ogy, and comparative psychology.

1673 Martin, J. N., et al. An African American perspective on conversational improvement strategies. Howard Journal of Communications 12(1):1-27, January-March 2001. BLACKS. CONVERSATIONAL ANALYSIS. ETHNIC DIFFERENCES. WHITES. This study investigates conversational strategies used by African Americans to communicate with European Americans. This research is based on a model of interethnic communication developed in previous research. This model assumes that interethnic and inter-racial communication is problematic and comprises the follow- ing four components: ethnic/racial identity, communication issues, conversational improvement strategies used to deal with the communication issues, and communica- tion satisfaction. The multimethodological study further elaborates one component of the model: conversational improvement strategies. First, 133 African Americans were asked to identify and describe conversational strategies used to deal with seven specific communication issues identified in previous research (i.e., acceptance, understanding, negative stereotyping, goal attainment, powerlessness, expressive- ness, and authenticity). Respondents reported using 12 conversational strategies Interpersonal Communication and Relations 753 ranging from accommodating strategies to more divergent strategies. Second, the results were further confirmed by interviews conducted with 10 African Americans concerning their inter-racial interaction in a specific context—an organizational set- ting. Both survey and interview results confirm the basic model.

RESISTANT BEHAVIOR. This investigation dealt with the role and impact of affect in the process of resis- tance. A total of 597 participants took part in the study in four phases spanning 6 weeks. Initial results indicated that the cognitive, affective-anger, and affective-hap- piness inoculation treatments all conferred resistance to persuasive attacks. Structural equation analyses were conducted to examine the process of resistance. The results across all three conditions revealed a direct path in which inoculation treatments directly induced resistance to persuasive attacks. However, indirect paths to resis- tance varied across the three experimental conditions. Cognitive inoculation treat- ments contributed to receiver threat and counterarguing output, which, in turn, enhanced resistance. Thus, the cognitive inoculation treatments triggered a process that is consistent with McGuire’s theoretical explanation for resistance. By contrast, both affective-anger and affective-happiness inoculation treatments relied more heavily on elicited emotional responses. Finally, the results indicated that great receiver involvement was positively associated with experienced anger and, there- fore, indirectly contributed to resistance, whereas greater receiver self-efficacy tended to dampen resistance.

DYADIC RELATIONS. INTERACTION ANALYSIS. Relational partners often experience intractable disagreements. When confront- ing such arguments, partners sometimes declare the topics taboo and thereby remove them from further discussion. However, research does not inform us as to whether or how such topics can be reintroduced for discussion. The authors argue that topics are most likely to be reintroduced when the conditions that led to their banishment are no longer relevant. They also anticipate that reintroducing the topic through a planned interaction rather than an unplanned conversation or event would be more common when the topic concerned some aspect of the relationship. However, a planned inter- action would be less likely when the topic focused on extra-relational activities, prior relationships, or attitudinal differences between partners. They also posit that rein- stating the topic would create more positive reactions when the reason for reintroduc- tion flowed from changed conditions and was planned rather than when not planned. A survey of individuals involved in dating relationships indicates that most could report topics that were once taboo and then reinstated. Their hypotheses are generally supported. Future directions for research are discussed. 754 Communication Abstracts

1676 Samp, J. A. Dependence power, severity appraisals, and communicative decisions about problematicevents in dating relationships. CommunicationStudies 52(1):17-36, Spring 2001. COMMUNICATION. DECISION MAKING. DYADIC RELATIONS. SOCIAL DATING. Individuals in relationships accrue dependence power to the extent that they are perceived by a committed partner to be uncommitted to the relationship and have via- ble relationship alternatives. This investigation examined how relational dependence power influences post-hoc appraisals and communicative decisions about problem- aticevents for both problematicevent offenders and observers. A total of 106 dating couples participated in this investigation. Each person individually completed mea- sures of dependence power. Then, one person in each couple was designated the offender and the other was the observer of one of five hypothetical problematic events. Participants rated the severity of the event as well as completing several measures related to defining the event as problematic. Respondents also reported the likelihood that they would not communicate about the situation. Analyses indicated that for offenders, appraisals of problematicevent severity were negatively associatedwith a partner’s commitment and positively associated with perceptions of a partner’s alter- natives; the opposite pattern was indicated for observers. Moreover, when events were appraised as serious, offenders and observers were less likely to avoid communicating about the situation. Little support was found for the association between dependence power and decisions to communicate about problematic events.

CYBERNETICS. GOAL SETTING. RELATIONAL COMMUNICATION. RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT. SOCIAL DATING. Problematic events are potentially identity-threatening situations that occur in dat- ing relationships. Such situations typically drive the pursuit of communication goals by problematic-event offenders. This investigation advanced an expanded model of cybernetic processes that recognizes the influence of both relationship and self pro- cesses on the production of goal characteristics within the problematic-events con- text. As an empirical examination of the model, a multistage study on dating partners was conducted. First, dating partners’self and relationship perceptions were solicited. Second, dating partners were presented with a hypothetical problematic event and then were instructed to have a conversation about the event. After the conversation, general post-hoc accounts and cued-recall measures of goals were solicited. The results of this investigation highlighted the differential influence of relationship fea- tures on post-hoc versus cued-recall measures of goals as well as the impact of percep- tions of anxiety over relationships and loving, the number of self-construct threats, and self-esteem on the composition of offenders’ goal orientations after problematic events. 755

CHARLES MURRAY. ROBERT NOZICK. POLITICAL RHETORIC. AYN RAND. RHETORIC. RHETORICAL ANALYSIS. MURRAY ROTHBARD. Although accusations of “political correctness” abound against political liberals, there has been little discussion of the conservatives’ use of their own economically correct language. In this volume, the author examines the processes by which the rhet- oric of the free market has become the everyday language of political debate in the United States and around the world. He illustrates the inner logicof free-market ideas, using rhetorical analysis as an analytical tool. In the process, the author examines what he regards as the most serious flaw of economic correctness: its destructive impact on the well-being of millions of working people and their families. The book explores the key principles of free market economics and discusses their rhetorical underpinnings. In showing how these ideas have permeated policy decisions around such contemporary issues as the minimum wage, the farm crisis, and the role of unions, the author draws out the ways that seemingly objective arguments and termi- nology have served to advance ideological ends. In so doing, he provides critical read- ings of such free market intellectuals as Ayn Rand, Robert Nozick, Murray Rothbard, and Charles Murray. The concluding chapters provide a discussion of the role of eco- nomic rhetoric in right-wing political discourse. Arguing for the presence of the inter- nal contradictions between economic libertarianism, nationalist principles, and social conservatism, the author explores the positions of such influential right-wing politi- cians as Ronald Reagan, Newt Gingrich, and Patrick Buchanan. In so doing, he attempts to provide the reader with the necessary tools to understand and critique spe- cific arguments made by free market proponents.

E-commerce companies actively attempt to manage consumers’ perceptions of their trustworthiness. After getting caught distributing software that could send per- sonal information back to the company without computer users’ knowledge, RealNetworks has adopted an extensive online privacy policy, seals of approval, and a quarterly privacy audit conducted by a public accounting firm. The question both e-businesses and consumers must address is the following: To what extend do I trust the other to do what he or she promises to do? That is, consumers must decide if they trust the business to provide what the business claims to provide regarding the price quoted, delivery time promised, and warranties and expected postpurchase services. Businesses must decide if they trust consumers to make timely and secured payments for the goods and services delivered to them. 756 Communication Abstracts

COMPUTER INDUSTRY. COMPUTERS. ECONOMIC INTEGRATION. INTERNATIONAL TRADE. MEXICO. Developing countries around the world have been opening up their computer mar- kets to foreign trade and investment for the past decade or more. One example of this trend is Mexico. In the 1980s, the Mexican computer industry was governed by poli- cies that limited participation of foreign companies and tightly restricted imports of computer equipment. However, in 1990 most restrictions on trade and foreign invest- ment were lifted as part of a broad program of economic liberation. Mexico further opened its computer market in the mid-1990s as it signed and implemented the North American Free Trade Agreement. Mexico’s case is, therefore, most relevant for examining the process of liberalization and its impacts on both computer production and use, the authors claim. Using data on production, use, imports, and exports as well as information gathered in interviews with major computer companies and related business organizations, government officials, and computer users, the authors ana- lyzed how liberalization has affected both company-level decisions and broader industry-level trends. The result is a mixed, nuanced set of findings, showing that lib- eralization has indeed led to some of the benefits expected by its proponents, but not without significant costs for the local industry.

1681 Johnson, D. T. Is this a real person? Communication and customer service in e-com- merce. Management Communication Quarterly 14(4):659-665, May 2001. COMMUNICATION THEORY. CUSTOMER SERVICE. ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. Customer service in an electronic commerce environment includes an array of self-service and electronic-service technologies that challenge the assumption of dyadic interaction. As e-commerce develops, the gap may widen between the way businesses conceive of customer service and the way communication scholars address it. Businesses already choose from a bewildering assortment of customer ser- vice options, including Web-based customer interaction, e-centers, (Web-enabled call centers), virtual customer service representatives, and e-customer relationships management. An unnecessarily limited definition of customer service offers little help to businesses struggling to understand conceptual as well as bottom-line differ- ences. The need to re-examine this implied definition is not a matter of bending com- munication scholarship to make it work in the practical world. Rather, it is a matter of working conscientiously between communication theories and cogent observations to build a robust definition. Economics and Communication 757

Tech- nology in Society 23(1):79-91, January 2001. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. RURAL AREAS. TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION. TELEPHONE COMPANIES. Telecommunications can encourage development in rural communities by helping them overcome geographic barriers. Rural telephone companies are integral to ensur- ing that communities in their service areas compete in the Information Age economy by adopting advanced technologies that enable the companies to provide a full spec- trum of innovative services. In this study, the authors examined rural telephone ser- vice in the state of Iowa and the organizational characteristics and environmental fac- tors related to their adoption of innovative telecommunications technologies and services. They found that the involvement of rural telephone companies in local development activities was important to their technological innovativeness, suggest- ing that local leaders should seek the involvement of telephone company managerial personnel in community development activities.

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS. THE NETHERLANDS. NEWSPAPER OWNERSHIP. NEWSPAPERS. The aim of this article is to assess, by way of an empirically based analysis, whether the price behavior of newspapers, both on reader and advertising markets, is affected by consolidation. Two questions related to consolidation are investigated. The first question relates to the extent to which consolidation between regional news- papers in the same area leads to a change in either the subscription price or in the real advertising costs. The second question investigates whether a merger between news- paper publishing companies leads to a change in the subscription price of their news- papers or in the real advertising costs. Newspapers that were directly or indirectly involved in consolidations did not show a more detrimental pricing behavior to con- sumers than the other dailies.

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERINGS. INTERNET USE. SECURITY AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. TELECOMMUNICATIONS REGULATION. This note examines the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) reaction to initial publicofferings (IPOs) on the Internet during the late 1990s, explores benefits and concerns associated with IPOs in the Internet generally, and suggests ways in which the SEC should respond to such Internet IPOs. In the upcoming years, the author notes, Internet stock trading will continue to increase at a rapid pace. Millions of users already have used the Internet for some sort of investing. Because of this, it 758 Communication Abstracts seems likely that IPOs on the Internet will continue to grow. The SEC, as the federal agency that regulates securities transactions, should step in and preempt state regula- tion of Internet IPOs so that smaller companies will have the opportunity to raise capi- tal. As it stands, Internet IPOs are a way for smaller companies to raise capital. In the new millennium, the SEC needs to take some action to unify the system.

1685 Altman, D. Global sex. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2001, 216 pp. $24.00 GENDER RELATIONS. GLOBALIZATION. INTERNET. SEXUAL BEHAVIOR. SEXUALITY. This volume looks at both the issues of globalization and sexuality. The author looks at how pleasures of the body are framed, shaped, commercialized, and even commodified in our new global economy, exploring the impact of globalization on gender relations, political power, public health, migration, and the ways in which we imagine our own sense of self and place. Ranging from United Nation debates over abortion, to the advent of cybersex, to the rapid spread of AIDS in Africa, and to the sex scandals that rocked both Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and President Bill Clinton, the book sheds light on how the personal and the political are now, more than ever, indistinguishable. Other topics include an overview of the Amer- ican pornography industry, twice as large as Major League Baseball and eight times as large as Broadway; how the World Bank helped weaken the publichealth structuresin Brazil and India that might prevent the spread of HIV and AIDS; how the introduction of satellite television to the South Pacific and Africa triggered outbreaks of anorexia and bulimia; and how the Internet has become the most popular way for homosexuals to meet each other in Taiwan and Korea.

This article examines the links between humor and hatred—a topic that is often ignored by researchers of prejudice. The article studies three Web sites that present racist humor and display sympathies with the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). The analysis emphasizes the importance of examining the “meta-discourse,” which presents and justifies the humor as much as studying the nature of the humor itself. The meta-dis- course of the sites’disclaimers is studied in relation to the justification of a joke being “just a joke.” The extreme racist humor of the KKK is not just a joke, even in terms of its own meta-discourse of presentation. The meta-discourse also suggests that the extreme language of racist hatred is indicated as a matter for enjoyment. The sites por- tray the imagining of extreme racist violence as a matter of humor, and the ambiva- lence of their disclaimers is discussed. It is suggested that there are integral links between extreme hatred and dehumanizing, violent humor. Communication, Culture, and Society 759

1687 Brookey, R. A. and Westerfelhaus, R. Pistols and petticoats, piety and purity: “To Wong Foo,” the queering of the American monomyth, and the marginalizing dis- course of deification. Critical Studies in Media Communication 18(2):141-156, June 2001. FILM. HOMOSEXUALS. MARGINALIZATION. MEDIA PORTRAYALS. Recently, the mainstream media have begun to include positive portrayals of gays and lesbians. This essay suggests that these positive portrayals demand critical scru- tiny to determine how they redefine mainstream culture and how they serve to chal- lenge and/or reinforce heterosexual bias. In an analysis of “To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar,” the authors offer a critique that suggests how queer media studies might engage such positive representations by examining how it is that, although ostensibly welcoming gays and lesbians into the mainstream, they fre- quently do so in a way that simultaneously tames and contains gays and the gay expe- rience. Through an analysis of this movie, the authors examine how that narrative film negotiates the practice of drag and represents drag queens in a positive light. The authors conclude from their analysis that the drag experience in the movie is made accessible and acceptable to the American mainstream through a progressive refiguring of the monomythicthemes that inform the popular genre of Western film. However, they contend that this refiguration in the end serves only to remarginalize the film’s gay drag queen protagonists through a discourse of deification that elevates them above, and thus removes them from, the American mainstream.

COMPLIANCE-GAINING BEHAVIOR. COMPLIANCE-GAINING STRATEGIES. FACE SAVING. CROSS-CULTURAL COMPARISON. CROSS-NATIONAL COMPARISON. IDENTITY. JAPANESE. Wilson, Aleman, and Leatham recently examined how compliance-gaining situa- tions defined by different influence goals can bring about multiple and varied face threats. This paper extends their work by examining how people from Japanese and U.S. cultures simultaneously manage influence and face goals in two types of compli- ance-gaining situations (i.e., requesting assistance and enforcing obligation) involv- ing two types of relationships (i.e., same-sex friends and same-sex acquaintances). The authors explore how message sources give reasons, express approval, and exert pressure as ways of managing both parties’ face in such situations. They also explore individualism-collectivism and in-group/out-group membership as possible sources of difference in goals and messages. Results are consistent with the view that individ- uals from Japan and the U.S. associate similar potential threats to face with specific influence goals and alter messages in similar fashion in light of these face threats. Implications for future research on culture, compliance gaining, and face are discussed. 760 Communication Abstracts

VIDEO PROGRAMMING. A long-term struggle between the Moroccan state and its larger Berber culture groups lies at the heart of this article about Moroccan Berber-language media, specifi- cally video films in Tachelhit. The article analyzes the historical context of Moroccan nation-state constraints on Berber identity, with a specific focus on the repression of media, particularly audiovisual media, in Berber languages. Included is discussion of a newly emergent form of Moroccan alternative media—Tachelhit-language video films—and their multiple functions on Berbers. Berber-language video films recuper- ate marginalized Berber speakers into nationally and internationally circulating media as both producers and consumers and break the stranglehold of Moroccan state-controlled media and culture. They help support the Berber ethnic revival/national heterogeneity movement, they represent and valorize within context cultural forms that are folklorized at the national level, and they insert new representers, representations, and subjects into Berber cultural memory.

RACIAL RELATIONS. SOCIAL CHANGE. Scholars from varying perspectives have suggested that discourse in media con- tent may play an important role in shaping and reinforcing perceptions of race rela- tions, particularly among White Americans. However, there has been relatively little systematic consideration of whether and, if so, how discourse in the press has contrib- uted over time to relations between Whites and Blacks. With this in mind, this research examined the racial ideologies present in coverage by 14 mainstream news- papers of U.S. Supreme Court decisions in 1883 and 1896 that allowed and then insti- tutionalized “separate but equal” race relations. Findings suggest that discourse in the mainstream press encouraged racial values and attitudes that were simultaneously being institutionalized in several cultural arenas by social Darwinism, Booker T. Washington’s accommodationism, and legalized segregation.

CULTURAL STUDIES. MEDIA ECOLOGY. MEDIA STUDIES. The recent proliferation of scholarship outlining the intellectual roots of media ecology represents a welcome break from past scholarship that dismissed studies of forms of communication as mere technological determinism. In this essay, the work of two prominent communication and media scholars, Joshua Meyrowitz and James Carey, is examined in order to demonstrate how their studies represent media ecology with rigorous and insightful analyses of the dynamicinteractionbetween c ommunication, Communication, Culture, and Society 761 consciousness, and culture. Perhaps more important, this essay highlights how the works of these two media ecologists fit into and embody a North American cultural studies approach to media studies. The intent of this essay is to push the understanding of the intellectual roots of media ecology toward a broader analysis of how media ecology is embedded in, and advocates for, the larger move in communication studies away from narrow, quantitative effects research and toward qualitative and interdisci- plinary scholarship, that is, North American cultural studies.

1692 Gamson, J. Jessica Hahn, media whore: sex scandals and female publicity. Critical Studies in Media Communication 18(2):157-173, June 2001. GENDER DIFFERENCES. SEXUAL ATTITUDES. SEXUALITY. WOMEN. Although much writing has focused on historical associations between women and “the private” and on women’s entry into publicroles, very little considerationhas been given to the gendered aspects of publicity itself. Drawing especially on media narration of Jessica Hahn—who became a media figure due to her role in the 1987 Jim Bakker sex scandal—the author demonstrates how fresh political rhetorics lend them- selves to stale sexual roles and scripts and some key ways in which publicity is gendered. Sex scandals, it is argued, are an especially useful spot to witness the inter- play between female sexuality and female publicity, both of which are explicit narra- tive elements of sex scandals. After briefly recounting the history of the public charac- ter of sex scandal vixen/victim with roots in virgin-or-whore roles reaching back into the 19th century, the author points to the ways Jessica Hahn’s image both replays and departs from that earlier characterization. As two newer contemporary discourses of feminism and of celebrity meet up with the virgin-whore discourse, they become con- joined—bodily virginity and media innocence, the loose woman and the media whore, the good girl and self-commodifier. The sexual scandal icon serves to mark the limits and the restricted terrain of female publicity.

CHILD REARING. MASS MEDIA. MEDIA EFFECTS. PARENT-CHILD INTERACTION. SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS. A theoretical framework describes differences in the social distribution of family child-rearing patterns as a primary component in children’s preference for violent media content as well as a component in development of knowledge gaps and citizen participation differentials. The interrelated elements include family child-rearing prototypes, attachment theory, authoritarian personality theory, and Kohn’s (1976, 1977) theory of child-rearing values. The concept of power underlies these elements on the levels of individuals, families, and society as operationalized in (1) the percep- tions of self-efficacy or powerlessness that the attachment process fosters in children, (2) parent-child power relations, and (3) ultimately, social power. Children of parents who feel powerless and who attempt to assert power through authoritarianism often grow up to have the same sense of powerlessness and other authoritarian characteris- tics, and they may be especially attracted to the portrayal of violent power options in mass media and video games. 762 Communication Abstracts

MEDIA ANALYSIS. MIDDLE EAST. NORTH AFRICA. WORLD-SYSTEMS ANALYSIS. This article points out the potential of applying the world system theory to global communication and media analysis as a humanocentric enterprise covering both the present and the past. It attempts to identify the world’s core countries using a weighted index of a country’s size of the economy and of its exports. It applies the index to rank the countries in the Middle East and North Africa region to ascertain the likelihood of a core-periphery structure within the region itself and to test whether media freedom and media penetration follow the pattern of that structure. It concludes that such sym- metry is unlikely to exist in a regional core-periphery configuration where the scores separating the countries are relatively negligible. It also suggests that under informa- tional capitalism, economic power blocs should replace individual countries as the unit of analysis for configuring the global core-periphery structure.

IDENTITY FORMATION. JEWS. SELF-CONCEPT. The authors explored the negotiation of Jewish American identity from a Commu- nication Theory of Identity perspective. Interviews with 26 Jewish Americans revealed that participants contend with their group-based identity on personal and relational levels when faced with decisions about whether to reveal or conceal their Jewish identity. Participants discussed Jewish identity management in their own lives and in the lives of other people they know. Analyses resulting in themes of closeting, centrality of identity, and potential consequences reflect participants’ personal and relational levels of identity. These themes are played out in the how, when, why, and if of participants’ identity management. Rules were derived to explain these processes, and the implications of the themes are discussed in light of the Communication The- ory of Identity and Communication Boundary Management.

1696 Hesling, W. The past as story: the narrative structure of historical films. European Journal of Cultural Studies 4(2):189-205, May 2001. CULTURAL STUDIES. FILM. HISTORICAL FILM. NARRATIVE ANALYSIS. SOCIAL HISTORY. In an age in which audiovisual media have come to dominate practically every layer of communication, historical films, with their semi-fictional, dramatized por- trayal of the past, have been able to exercise an increasingly significant influence on a society’s historical consciousness. This article, starting from the observation that most films use stories to address the past, focuses on the way narrative structures shape the cinematic representation of history. From there it is argued that to appreciate the nonscientific historical perceptions movies generate, it is necessary to accept them as a form of history that approaches the past with its own questions and strategies and thus also comes up with its own answers and explanations.

DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISCOURSE STRATEGIES. HOMOSEXUALS. IDENTITY FORMATION. SELF-CONCEPT. Through an analysis of naturally occurring conversation, this study develops an understanding for how teasing episodes construct identities for both tease initiators and recipients. Because little is known about the unique features of gay and lesbian discourse, the authors’goal was to increase the knowledge of conversational patterns of gays and lesbians, particularly identity formation through teasing interactions. Three themes of identity construction through teasing were suggested. They are the following: (1) the visibility of a tease recipient’s gayness, (2) how sexually promiscu- ous/available were tease recipients, and (3) how sex roles in relationships and sexual desire of tease recipients interact with those of tease initiators. The changing nature of one’s identity construction, the fluidity of gender/sex roles, and the socialization function of teasing episodes are evidenced in these data.

This volume examines the stories and messages conveyed on prime time televi- sion, in popular film, and in music and their potential impact on the audience—the American public. This information and analysis are for the media producer, student, and media consumer alike, providing methods to critically examine entertainment media and decipher what is being portrayed. The author explores accessible methods to analyze the content and impact of images of gender, socioeconomic class, race, and sexual orientation in entertainment media. In each chapter, the author observes and analyzes the personal experiences of readers with individuals and groups that are dif- ferent from them. Examining personal experience allows readers to determine what they have learned informally about various groups according to race, gender, eco- nomicstatus, and sexual orientation. A variety of exercisesand quizzes provide a foundation for understanding how where we lived and what we were told by our par- ents, peers, teachers, and religious leaders has shaped how we see the world.

1699 Jones, S. and Taylor, B. Food writing and food cultures: the case of Elizabeth David and Jane Grigson. European Journal of Cultural Studies 4(2):171-188, May 2001. CULINARY ARTS. CULTURAL STUDIES. FOOD PRODUCTS. Despite a growth in sociological and cultural analyses of food practices, little attention has been paid to food writing and cookery books. This article seeks to rectify this by analyzing the work of Elizabeth David and Jane Grigson. The authors argue that their work not only belongs to a predominantly male tradition of gastronomic writing but that it also seeks to salvage certain forms of female domesticity. Although 764 Communication Abstracts this represents a break with tradition, the particular force of David and Grigson’s work lies in its appeal to culinary authenticity. If the techniques of modern food production threaten the unique flavors of authenticfoods, then David and Grigson turn to forms of continental cuisine, and then eventually to the traditions of English cuisine, as an antidote to the drive of modernity. The authors conclude that their response to the pro- cesses of modernity is thus an ambivalent one; one that provides some useful insights into contemporary food concerns.

1700 Kwansah-Aidoo, K. Telling stories: the epistemological value of anecdotes in Ghana- ian communication research. Media Culture & Society 23(3):359-380, May 2001. COMMUNICATION RESEARCH. EPISTEMOLOGY. GHANA. STORYTELLING. Telling stories and/or anecdotes is a normal part of everyday life and communica- tion in Ghana. Consequently, by using anecdotes narrated by participants in research on people’s attitude toward the environment and the role of the media in encouraging environmental awareness, this article argues that anecdotes can be used as epistemological tools that can inform ways of knowing and doing communication research in Ghana. In particular, it is noted that telling stories or anecdotes has impor- tant implications for those telling them, other participants in the discussion (in the case of focus groups), and the communication researcher. The ultimate value lies in the fact that through documenting and analyzing anecdotes, the accumulated experi- ences of people can serve as evidence that can inform and positively influence policy makers. In the context of media studies, it will also enrich the literature on the relation- ship between media, public opinion, and environmental issues.

1701 Lumby, C. Watching them watching us: the trouble with teenage girls. Continuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies 15(1):49-55, April 2001. CONSUMER STUDIES. CULTURAL ANALYSIS. FEMALE ADOLESCENTS. WOMEN. WOMEN’S REPRESENTATION. The author is interested in how researchers have traditionally interpreted represen- tations of young women. She notes that many media academics—despite more than three decades of debate about the problems associated with the “passive” consumer model—continue to interpret all media representations of young women, and all media representations aimed at young women, as producing passive, helpless, idiotic readers who are unable to interpret or understand their culture. The author’s argument that there are other ways for media academics to interpret the culture of representation that involves and is aimed at young women—approaches that would grant these audi- ences the same power of interpretation that we regularly allow to other audience seg- ments—relies partly on the logic of equivalence (have we rejected the hypodermic model of meaning, or have we?), partly by simply pointing out the possibility of alter- native interpretations, and partly by explaining her own responses to texts that attempt to represent young women as incapable of thinking.

1702 Mandaville, P. Reimagining Islam in diaspora: the politics of mediated community. Gazette 63(2/3):169-186, April 2001. COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. DIASPORAS. IDENTITY. ISLAM. MIDDLE EAST. This article looks at the mediation of one aspect of Middle Eastern culture, Islam, in the context of diasporic Muslim communities in the West. It explores the impact of information and communications technologies on debates relating to the normative boundaries of blame identity and community. It is argued that media technologies provide channels for new or previously disenfranchised voices to be heard in the pub- licsphere of Muslim diasporas. Simultaneously, traditional structuresof authority are refigured and, to some extent, marginalized in favor of alternative interpretations of religious knowledge perceived as more relevant to contemporary diasporic life in the West. The author begins with a brief discussion of some of the issues related to repre- sentations of community and identity. Rather than identifying any single, monovocal source of community definition, the author’s aim here is to draw attention to the importance of stressing the diversity and multiple sites of articulating that define the identities of various diasporic communities.

PHENOMENOLOGY. WOMEN. Using narrative descriptions of the author’s own lived experience of her ethnic her- itage, the author offers a systematic interrogation of the social and cultural norms by which certain aspects of her Mexican American cultural heritage are both retained and lost over generations of assimilation. Combining semioticand existential phenomen- ology with Chicana feminism, the author charts where antiracist, antisexist, and antihomophobic work may be pursued. The book contains the following six chapters: “The Generative Nexus: A Chicana Feminist Crossing,” “Speaking as a Chicana: Tracing Cultural Heritage through Silence and Betrayal,” “Radical Ambiguities and the Chicana Lesbian: Body Topographies on Contested Lands,” “La Conciencia de la Mestiza: Intra- and Intersubjective Transformations of Racist and Homophobic Cul- ture,” “Chicana Feminism and Struggle in the Flesh: Racist Assimilation and Cultural Recovery,” and “Chicana y Chicana: A Dialogue on Race, Class, and Chicana Identity.”

1704 McClelland, M. Live life more selfishly: an on-line gay advice column in Japan. Con- tinuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies 15(1):103-116, April 2001. ADVICE COLUMNS. CULTURAL ANALYSIS. HOMOSEXUALS. JAPANESE. ONLINE COMMUNICATION. This paper examines the questions and responses posted on a Japanese gay advice column on the Internet. The author’s analysis points toward the importance of context in making interpretations of cultural objects. The people who write to this advice col- umn have worries familiar from Western examples of the genre—the tension between duty and pleasure, between others and the self. The responses from the columnists are 766 Communication Abstracts similarly familiar—promoting “personal choice, freedom, and the right of the indi- vidual (gay man) to ‘cut out’ his own life path independent of his family or social expectations.” But the author argues that we should interpret this column in the con- text of the culture where it originates—a context where much traditional wisdom involves a strong Confucian influence so that a sense of belonging is central to many Japanese people’s sense of well-being, and they are prepared to pay a high price in terms of fulfilling obligations to ensure group membership and protection. When this context is borne in mind, the responses on this advice site can be interpreted as quite unusual and suggestive of important changes taking place in Japanese culture.

COMMUNICATION EDUCATION. ELECTRONIC MAIL. LEARNING PROCESSES. In a teaching experiment, 16 face-to-face and 11 e-mail Finnish university stu- dents studied academic debating in an argumentation course. The 19 students of the control group did not engage in the course. The course involved two lectures, exer- cises with argumentative texts, and face-to-face or e-mail seminar discussions based on these texts. Free debate, role play, problem solving, and panel discussion were the devices used in organizing the course. The level of the students’ argumentation skills were measured in a pretest before the course and in a posttest after it. The results were compared between and within the groups. The results indicated that during the e-mail studies, the students learned to identify and choose relevant grounds, whereas the face-to-face students improved in putting forward counterargumentation. The control group did not improve in these skills. The study suggests that argumentation skills can be promoted by short-term e-mail and face-to-face teaching and that practicing argu- mentation in different learning environments develops different kinds of argumenta- tion skills.

PUBLIC SPHERE. WOMEN. This article analyzes alternative media on the Internet media forms produced by social movements and grassroots groups. A framework for analyzing alternative media on the Internet is devised using a wide range of theoretical literature, in particu- lar theories of the publicsphere and of socialmovements. Within a publicsphere con - text, alternative media on the Internet could offer an alternative to mass media by using different production practices, such as those fostering capacities for reflection on the experiences of media audiences. Within a social movement context, alternative media on the Internet could help movement actors reach their political aims or help maintain a movement by supporting alternative forms of self-understanding, friend- ship networks, and communities. Empirical research using the framework was con- ducted during a 2 ½-year period on the Womenslink mailing list that linked women’s organizations in Northern Ireland and the Republicof Ireland. The findings contribute to further understanding of the Internet and the transnational public sphere. Communication, Culture, and Society 767

1707 Oktar, L. The ideological organization of representational processes in the presenta- tion of us and them. Discourse & Society 12(4):313-346, May 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. IDEOLOGY. SELF-CONCEPT. This study, drawing on the work of Teun A. Van Dijk (1998) to theorize the rela- tions between discourse and ideology, aims to show how social groups (us vs. them) are presented in discourse and how ideological discourse is constructed sociopoliti- cally as a means to confirm group dominance. Simultaneously, this study uses critical discourse analysis as a methodology that grounds the theoretical claims in the idea that both the ideological loading of particular ways of using certain linguistic forms systematically and the relations of power that underlie them are often unclear to peo- ple. In this sense, critical discourse analysis aims to make these opaque aspects of dis- course explicit. In so doing, critical discourse analysis gives attention to the grammar and vocabulary of texts. The following three dimensions of the clause grammar are differentiated: transitivity, modality, and theme. These correspond, respectively, to ideational, interpersonal, and textual functions of language. The focus in this study is on aspects of clause grammar that have to do with ideational meanings.

1708 Ribak, R. “Like immigrants”: negotiating power in the face of the home computer. New Media & Society 3(2):220-238, June 2001. COMPUTER USE. IDENTITY FORMATION. MEN. PARENT-CHILD INTERACTION. This article explores the father-son computer triangle in an attempt to shed light on the role of the machine in the articulation of male identity in particular and family relationships in general. The article outlines a framework for the investigation of fam- ilies and domestic communication technologies, arguing that the study of identity construction through the medium must be accompanied by a study of the relationships around the medium and that men and boys need to be (re)incorporated into the work on the human-machine problematic. Drawing on an analysis of the discourse of three families that were observed and interviewed in the course of 1 year, the article pro- poses that the notion of computer expertise and the sense of dependence are key for the construction of fatherhood and masculinity, vis-à-vis the home computer, and points to the metaphor of immigrants’language acquisition, which was offered by one of the fathers as capturing the complexity of contemporary paternal emasculation.

INTRACULTURAL COMMUNICATION. NATIVE INDIANS. OHIO. POWWOWS. Powwows such as those in the central Ohio area offer an opportunity to explore a complex set of inter- and intracultural communication. American Indian efforts to increase common understanding of contemporary Native America is done by using the powwow, which stresses American Indian commonalities in relation to main- stream American culture. In the context of the American Indian community, they stress tribal individuality and they value intertribal negotiation rather than pan-ethnic conglomeration or assimilation. The author’s primary materials for this study came 768 Communication Abstracts from participant observation at powwows and other American Indian events and gath- erings in the central Ohio area.

1710 Shane, E. Disconnected America: the consequences of mass media in a narcissistic world. Armonk, NY: M. E. Sharpe, 2000, 216 pp. $58.95/$22.95 ANOMIE. MASS MEDIA. MASS MEDIA EFFECTS. NARCISSISM. SOCIAL ALIENATION. UNITED STATES. This volume is written as a warning and as a complaint. Its message is that we have allowed the cabaret of the information explosion to lull us into thinking that we know what’s happening around us; we have internalized the experience of electronic media to such a point that we diminish interpersonal contact or social capital. This book explores the ever-shortening distance between disconnectivity and alienation and offers a scenario about how we arrived here. The author examines the change from pervasive mass media that disseminate information quickly to demassified individual media that incubate a new electronic narcissism. The result is an inwardly focused individual who sees all information—all stimuli, for that matter—in one context: the context of self, totally disconnected from other individuals, other ideas, other col- lected imagery. The new narcissist seeks shelter from information. The context is no context at all. The book is social criticism, so it asks more questions that it answers because there are no easy answers.

GENDER REPRESENTATION. MEDIATED COMMUNICATION. POSTMODERNISM. In this essay, the authors explore how sensibilities of third-wave feminism are appropriated by and in the context of postmodern media such that they are commodified, reinscribed, and sold to audiences in a hegemonic fashion. To this end, the authors analyze gendered representations of women located at various mediated sites of popular culture in whom gender is conspicuous and primacy—Alanis Morissette, Kate Moss, and Ally McBeal. The authors argue that, in each case, the appropriation of third-wave feminist tenets is accomplished via a postmodern aes- thetic code of juxtaposition that serves to recontextualize and reinscribe those sensi- bilities in a way that ultimately functions to reify dominant patriarchal codes and disclosures.

PUBLIC OPINION SURVEYS. RACIAL DIFFERENCES. RACIAL RELATIONS. This volume is a detailed study of some of the most racially divisive issues Amer- ica has encountered in the past decade. The authors employ more than 40 surveys to explore race-based public opinion differences on high-profile controversies, includ- ing the Rodney King and O. J. Simpson cases; the arrest, trial, jailing, and subsequent reelection of Washington, D.C. mayor Marion Barry; the Million Man March and Communication, Culture, and Society 769

Louis Farrakhan; and the Clarence Thomas-Anita Hill controversy. The authors also look at race-based opinion differences on the inner-city crack cocaine epidemic and the spread of AIDS among the American populace. The division in opinion between Blacks and Whites on these controversies is explained in terms of the distinctive his- torical and culture experiences of the different races and the gaps, gulfs, and chasms in their contemporary social and economic conditions. Although noting significant commonalities in opinion across the color line, the book focuses on racial differences and their sources, and in a concluding chapter the authors advance suggestions about how the nation might overcome its racial divisions.

MEDIATED COMMUNICATION. MIDDLE EAST. The media and communications environment in the Middle East has attracted only intermittent attention; the area is more usually analyzed in terms of its geostrategic significance, the economics of oil, or the cultural traditions of Islam. A more useful approach than either extreme is to explore the competing pressures of conservatism, tradition, cultural maintenance, and other pressures toward change and moderniza- tion that exist within every society and are pronounced across the region—where are the tensions manifest, who are the main protagonists, what are the likely short-term and long-term outcomes? In a region experiencing so much flux, the media need to be analyzed as institutions that can contribute to national and transnational processes of political liberalization and democratization; potential agents of national solidarity, cultural convergence, and social transformation; and as actors within wider processes of economic globalization, market expansion, and rationalization of employment and labor relations. It is the contradictory and ambivalent roles of the media in the region that makes them a fascinating focus of analysis.

MASS MEDIA. MEDIA AUDIENCES. MEDIA USE. SOCIAL STRUCTURE. USES AND GRATIFICATIONS. Much has been written about the structure and processes of China’s mass media changes before and after the late Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping initiated the eco- nomic reform and open-door policies in the late 1970s. Many of them focused on the commercialization, depoliticalization, and internationalization of Chinese media as a result of the market economy and external openness. Little known, however, is how the audiences get caught up in the interplay between the fast changing social structure and the evolving media system in China. Using the uses and dependency model as a framework, this study seeks to determine the effects of the media transformation on the audiences and their media use in the new environment. In this article, the authors argue that the uses and dependency perspective best helps explain why Chinese read- ers prefer a particular kind of news and why the Party organs are losing ground to other, more market-oriented media. 770 Communication Abstracts

RACIAL RELATIONS. RACISM. RACISM DENIAL. A long-standing and pervasive element of Canadian national identity is the ideal- ization of Canadian society as uniquely tolerant and free of racism. This national myth was seriously challenged when the results of a federally commissioned survey on atti- tudes toward immigration were made public. Using the methods of critical discourse analysis, this paper examines how the results of this survey were presented and inter- preted in The Globe andMail . Specifically, the press reports are examined with respect to the following: (1) How the situation of discrimination and intolerance revealed in the survey is encoded, (2) the meaning of the terms Canadian and Cana- dian culture in the context of these texts, and (3) how the texts account for the reported change in Canadian attitudes toward visible minorities. The author argues that The Globe andMail adopted an overall semanticstrategy of denial of racismthat reinter - prets, marginalizes, and mitigates evidence of racism in Canada and thus reinforces the dominant and preferred view of Canadian society as tolerant, pluralistic, and free of systemic racism.

TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION. URBAN AREAS. Design and dispersion of new socio-technological configurations are studied by many varying sorts of scientific disciplines, ranging from communication studies to technology studies. In this article, the configuration and appropriation of new socio-technical constituencies are studied and subsequently interpreted in terms of a rather novel concept: social learning. In addition to what is known about appropria- tion and configuration processes, social learning adds another point of view elabo- rated from a perspective known as the social shaping of technology. It takes Beck and Giddens’s reflexive modernization as a starting point and uses this to elaborate social learning into two dominant modes: experimentation and control. The Digital City of Amsterdam is used as exemplar to demonstrate configuration and appropriation pro- cesses and how these can be interpreted as elements of the mode of experimentation.

SOCIAL HISTORY. VERBAL PROVOCATION. The author’s purpose in this essay is to analyze the discrimination by which slaves effectively used the rhetorical device of insolence but suffered as a result. The author outlines key elements of this nuanced code of dissimulation and assesses slaves’ adherence to the purpose, subject matter, and methods approved in rhetorical lore for insolent discourse. The author concludes that, although slaves perfected suitable Education and Communication 771 methods of insolence, the gentry disallowed their purpose and subject matter. The evi- dence in this regard is the overwhelming frequency with which they suffered physical abuse in response to their insolence rather than verbal retort. Indeed, the state of Ten- nessee enacted a statute in 1806 that proscribed insulting or provoking language by slaves. Many other Southern states followed with similar statutes. Moreover, states that did not enact this type of statute uniformly recognized slave insolence as “suffi- cient cause” at law for a White person’s beating and maiming of a slave.

COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. ELECTRONIC MAIL. VIDEOCONFERENCING. WORLD WIDE WEB. This study of 550 persons, predominantly education professionals, was designed to test an integrated theoretical model for predicting the likelihood of the use of tele- communications-related technological innovations (in particular, e-mail, the World Wide Web, and videoconferencing) in learning-related settings. The four Es in the model, derived from a series of previous studies, are environmental factors, effective- ness, ease of use, and (personal) engagement. The model was first tested using fac- tor-analyticprocedureson the results of a 54-item questionnaire administered via the World Wide Web to a sample of 550 persons from 39 countries. Twelve factors with eigenvalues greater than 1.00 were extracted, and latent variables were generated to correspond with the factors. The results, which again supported the 4-E Model, were identified as key to implementation prediction. These variables were used in a series of analyses of key subgroups in the sample, relating to educational sector, educational role, gender, and age, to examine key discriminating variables. The results are dis- cussed in terms of their theoretical and practical implications, including the develop- ment of a World Wide Web-based instrument.

1719 Couldry, N. The umbrella man: crossing a landscape of speech and silence. European Journal of Cultural Studies 4(2):131-152, May 2001. CULTURAL STUDIES. GREAT BRITAIN. MASS MEDIA. MEDIA USE. In a supposedly antipolitical age, the boundaries that define the political are cen- tral to understanding politics, particularly when their construction is determined by wider processes of cultural exclusion. This article aims to illuminate these issues by examining the political and media tactics of one British social activist, known as “the Umbrella Man,” who works particularly on campaigns for old age and disability issues. In a society in which symbolic power is heavily concentrated on media institu- tions, the actions of those who try to obtain media attention in spite of lacking the resources of media production reveal a great deal about the normal constraints on being noticed and heard. These are explored using various concepts from cultural studies, anthropology, and political sociology, including transgression, exclusion, tactics, and alternative celebrity. 772 Communication Abstracts

1720 Daufin, E.-K. Minority faculty job experience, expectations, and satisfaction. Jour- nalism & Mass Communication Educator 56(1):18-30, Spring 2001. ACADEMIA. COLLEGE FACULTY. JOURNALISM EDUCATION. MINORITIES. This retrospect explores the last snapshot of minority educators, before entering the new millennium, in the context of the national professorate. This study looks at the reasons educators of color gave for entering pedagogy, what they expected from aca- demia, and whether they thought they would remain in education, or return to the pro- fessional media full time. The study sought to discover the following: (1) if the rea- sons that minority faculty members chose to enter the field differed from those of White faculty; (2) if structural, institutional, or covert racism exists and is the most important obstacle to retaining minority faculty, and (3) if minority faculty would report that their expectations of journalism and mass communication education were not met and that they did not expect to remain in the field. The study found that minor- ity educators had more education and media experience than their White counterparts. For minority faculty members, specific service to their ethnic community was the most influential factor in choosing to enter and remain in education. They were much more likely to be dissatisfied with their academic careers than White faculty. Although minority educators shared many of the same reasons for job distraction and dissatisfaction, their prioritization of these reasons significantly differed from White educators.

This article is based on an analysis of the European and U.S. contemporary litera- ture and material from 45 face-to-face, in-depth interviews with experts in journalism education and further training in five European countries from February to April 2000 by the author and a colleague. The countries were selected because of their compara- tive features in terms of size and structure of the media systems. The countries chosen were Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Austria. First, the ways in which programs have traditionally been constructed and new initiatives have been employed in journalism education are summarized, looking specifically at Europe and the United States. As a second step, the underlying notions of professional jour- nalism, as these form the basis of education programs, are discussed. This section addresses, in particular, the ways in which such ideal-typical notions of journalism have come under threat in recent years. The third part of the article discusses the chal- lenges to journalism education and further training programs in terms of what can be seen as the three key arenas where one may find fundamental threats or challenges regarding the role, function, and definition of journalism and journalists—society, economy, and technology.

1722 Dickson, T. Trends in university support of scholastic journalism. Journalism & Mass Communication Educator 56(1):74-85, Spring 2001. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. JOURNALISM EDUCATION. MASS COMMUNICATION. UNIVERSITIES. This study was designed to determine whether critics were correct in concluding that journalism and mass communication programs had become less involved in scho- lasticjournalism in recentyears. A 1-page, 17-question survey was sent to the heads of journalism and mass communication at 203 colleges and universities. A total of 101 completed surveys were returned. Of the 101 completed surveys, 95 of them reported some sort of scholastic journalism activity, such as a publication course designed for scholastic journalism education, a methods course for teaching high school journal- ism, certification of high school journalism teachers, or outreach to high schools through workshops and seminars on high school press days. The author found that only slightly fewer institutions in 1999 were involved in some aspect of scholastic journalism than in 1974, but significantly fewer institutions were involved in activi- ties related to preparing future journalism teachers. However, institutions were not doing significantly less outreach for high school teachers and students and were doing slightly but not significantly more in providing workshops for students and teachers.

1723 Giere, R. N. A new framework for teaching scientific reasoning. Argumentation 15(1):21-33, February 2001. COMMUNICATION EDUCATION. SCIENTIFIC ARGUMENTATION. The author is one of the few people who have written textbooks that try to teach scientific reasoning in ways that avoid the faults of the conventional picture of scien- tificreasoning. This paper sets forth the framework used, but not discussed,in his book Understanding Scientific Reasoning. He emphasizes the major differences between this framework and that which is traditionally employed to understand and teach reasoning. The author maintains that this framework can be extended beyond science to reasoning in general, as suggested earlier in the journal, but has left that as further work for the reader. The author thinks that the traditional framework takes the objects of reasoning to be linguistic entities, statements, propositions, hypotheses, and so forth. The goal of reasoning is to evaluate claims regarding the truth or falsity of statements. Reasoning itself is represented as having the form of an argument, a set of statements with premises and a conclusion.

INTERRATER RELIABILITY. RATINGS. WRITING INSTRUCTION. WRITTEN COMMUNICATION. The assessment of students’writing skills through essays is a common practice in educational institutions. Scoring of essays requires considerable judgment on the part of those who rate the response. When raters assign different scores to an essay, testing practitioners must resolve the discrepancy before computing an operational score to report to the examinee. This study investigated five forms of score resolution that 774 Communication Abstracts were reported in a national survey of state department of education-testing agencies. The study examined the effect that each form of resolution has on the reliability of the resulting operational scores. It is shown that some methods of resolution can be asso- ciated with higher interrater reliability than can others. Also, the choice of resolution can affect the magnitude of the reported score as well as the final passing rate of an assessment.

ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE. COLLEGE STUDENTS. INTERNET USE. Recent research at colleges and universities has suggested that some college stu- dents’ academic performance might be impaired by heavier use of the Internet. This study reviews the relevant literature and presents data from a survey of 572 students at a large public university. Heavier recreational Internet use was shown to be correlated highly with impaired academic performance. Loneliness, staying up late, tiredness, and missing class were also intercorrelated with self-reports of Internet-caused impairments. Self-reported Internet dependency and impaired academic performance were both associated with greater use of Internet applications, but particularly with much greater use of synchronous communication applications, such as chat rooms and multiple user dungeons, as opposed to asynchronous applications, such as e-mail and usenet newsgroups.

BioWorld complements the biology curriculum by providing a hospital sim- ulation in which students can apply what they have learned about body systems to problems in which they can reason about diseases. Students work collaboratively at collecting evidence to confirm or refute their hypotheses as they attempt to solve BioWorld cases. This study examined students’ use of BioWorld to solve problems related to the digestive system. Analyses of student actions and verbal dialogue were conducted to pinpoint the types of features within BioWorld that were most conducive to learning and scientific reasoning. An exploratory analysis of the types of assistance provided to students by a teacher, researcher, and BioWorld alone was conducted to examine how scaffolding influenced student actions.

This volume systematically offers Noam Chomsky’s influential writings on edu- cation. In this volume, Chomsky builds a larger understanding of our educational Education and Communication 775 needs, starting with the changing role of schools today and then broadening the view toward new models of public education for citizenship. Chomsky weaves global tech- nological change and the primacy of responsible media with the democratic roles of schools and higher education. A truly democratic society, he argues, cannot thrive in a rapidly changing world unless our approach to education—formal and otherwise—is dramatically reformed. Chomsky offers a critique of how our current educational sys- tem miseducates students and his prescriptions for change. The book contains the fol- lowing five chapters: “Beyond a Domesticating Education: A Dialogue,” “Democ- racy and Education, The Craft of ‘Historical Engineering,’ ” “Market Democracy in a Neoliberal Order: Doctrines and Reality,” and “Unmasking a Pedagogy of Lies: A Debate With John Silber.”

In an effort to illustrate Pepperdine University’s need to incorporate communica- tions technologies into classes and its need to adjust to the new client-based paradigm emerging in today’s education, an online segment (i.e., one unit of a four-unit course online) for Pepperdine University’s course “Philosophy and Effects of Mass Commu- nication” was developed and pilot tested during the fall of 1999. The author, who serves as a faculty member, developed, implemented, and facilitated the entire course, including the pilot test of the four-part online portion. According to the summative committee members who reviewed the results of the online segment’s pilot test, the online segment model developed and used as a pilot test is considered appropriate for other faculty members to use as a model to develop an online segment for other courses. However, the author suggests deploying either an online asynchronous or synchronous method instead of deploying both methods for a one-unit online seg- ment. The author recommends making a transition from the traditional classroom to the online classroom by deploying a portion of the course, such as two units of a four-unit course, online. 776 Communication Abstracts

1730 Scott, C. R. Establishing and maintaining customer loyalty and employee identifica- tion in the new economy: a communicative response. Management Communication Quarterly 14(4):629-636, May 2001. COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. CONSUMER EDUCATION. ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. Despite the enormous potential of the New Economy, the author suggests that cur- rent uses of new communication technologies in organizations (especially “.com” and “click-and-mortar” types, but traditional forms as well) are directly and indirectly contributing to a reduced level of attachment among customers and employees. More specific, it is the use of these tools for one-way information sharing and limited interactivity that most contributes to this problem. The author also believes that more interactive communication technologies (e.g., instant messaging, Internet audio/phone) can provide mechanisms to establish, re-establish, and maintain a sense of loyalty and identification among these parties when they are used to foster more two-way communicative exchanges. Although such claims are based on rather lim- ited scientific evidence at this point and paint an overly simplistic view of the issue, the significance of this topic for organizations (as well as their members and custom- ers) demands that the sort of initial exploration offered here is begun.

1731 Turner, S. Teaching subtlety of thought: the lessons of “contextualism.” Argumenta- tion 15(1):77-95, February 2001. ARGUMENTATION. COMMUNICATION EDUCATION. LANGUAGE. The author notes an apparent similarity between typical instruction in critical thinking and recent, more contextual and historical approaches in the history of ideas: They both work to uncover the presuppositions of thought. However, that similarity masks important differences, he argues. As his examples from Weber, Machiavelli, and Plato show, original thinkers deploy conventional presuppositions not by endors- ing them but by using them to persuade and so to innovate. Consequently, he argues, the business of understanding reasoning is not one of reduction to a canonical logical form but, rather, one of translation from one language or idiom into another. In teach- ing students to read contextually, the author claims that they teach students something about thinking subtly that they may themselves deploy.

1732 White, C. The usefulness of consulting as a teaching tool. Journalism & Mass Com- munication Educator 56(1):31-42, Spring 2001. EDUCATIONAL CONSULTATION. INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNIQUES. PUBLIC RELATIONS EDUCATION. This study attempts to provide evidence that private consulting can be used as a tool in classroom teaching in a way that provides direct benefits to students. It reports a concerted effort to use private consulting experience in teaching a public relations course and to evaluate the effectiveness of using the instructor’s consulting project as a teaching tool. The experimental use of current consulting work as a teaching tool was used in an undergraduate publicrelations writing coursetaught during the fall Health Communication 777 semester of 1999. The course is a skills-based course taught in a computer lab and required of all majors. The author found that the benefits of using a consulting client to demonstrate public relations tools to students were many. Students could watch their book-learning unfold immediately in a real-life context. Often, the use of a real client, in a campaigns course, for instance, results in a plan, but no in-real-time implementa- tion. The data suggest that the use of real examples had a positive effect on how credi- ble the students perceived the instructor to be.

WRITING INSTRUCTION. WRITTEN COMMUNICATION. In this study, the author examines the ways in which a small group of students and their teachers from an intermediate-level university writing class use the texts they create to negotiate private and shared public understandings of the complex interactional contexts of their work together. The author begins by examining some of the competing goals and motives that energize the participants’ classroom efforts. To understand the sources of those diverse purposes and how they serve to shape and sus- tain subsequent classroom interactions, the author develops an activity-based frame- work of analysis that draws extensively from dialogical and functional-linguistic approaches to language, context, and interaction. Writing and written communication are portrayed as linguistically mediated and interactively structured processes of contextualization. Implications for how we conceptualize and organize classroom interactions, such as intensive peer review and student-teacher conferencing, and the central role that talk and writing must play in operationalizing those interactional con- texts are discussed.

HEALTH COMMUNICATION

1734 Anderson, C. M. Communication in the medical interview team: an analysis of pa- tients’ stories in the United States and Hong Kong. Howard Journal of Communica- tions 12(1):61-72, January-March 2001. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. HEALTH INFORMATION. HEALTH SERVICES. HONG KONG. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. UNITED STATES. In this study, two sets of patients, one in the United States and one in Hong Kong, told their stories of their medical interview that began with the appointment and ended with the last staff person or health care professional they met. A content analysis of the stories revealed that the communication focused on task competence and friendliness for receptionists, technical competence, friendliness, information giving and seeking behaviors for nurses, socio-emotional and technical competence, and information giving and seeking behaviors for physicians in the United States. For the Chinese sample, communication reflected task competence for receptionist/nurses, technical competence and information giving and seeking for physicians, and information giv- ing for nurses. Discussion supports the usefulness of narratives and viewing the inter- view as a team effort. 778 Communication Abstracts

This chapter has two parts. The first is a narrative summary of the experience of a woman with no computer experience as she seeks information on infertility and local infertility clinics, as the case researcher helps her using the Internet and finding sub- stantive information. The second is a comparison of information on infertility clinics in the area found on the Internet and that found in the local telephone book. Although a chapter of this nature is somewhat novel in an academic volume, the authors acknowl- edge, the editors of the volume found the contribution intriguing. Moreover, it serves as a useful antidote to some of the more glib assertions about the way computers and the Internet are being used by many segments of the population.

MANAGED CARE. NURSES. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. Managed care poses numerous opportunities and challenges for today’s health care organizations and their employees. This article investigates the ways that hospi- tal nurses develop and make sense of their professional roles and organizational envi- ronments in a changing and often uncertain managed care setting. The case study approach used in this research combined qualitative methodologies to gain a rich, detailed, and contextual understanding of nurses’work roles and organizational expe- riences. After an analysis of interviews with 24 nurses and observations of nurses’ communicative activities in one inpatient unit, the complexity of sensemaking and role development in a managed care environment is considered. Conclusions are then drawn regarding the theoretical and pragmatic implications of nurses’communicative processes as they attempt to develop and understand their changing roles in a chang- ing organizational context.

INTERNET USE. TELEPHONE SURVEYS. WEB SITES. This chapter reports on a nationwide telephone survey of Internet users. Nearly half of the Internet users surveyed reported that they had looked for medical informa- tion on the Internet, and a majority of those had done so more than three times in the past year. The results show that the Internet is not just a health information repository but it also facilitates interactions among doctors, health care professionals, and Health Communication 779 patients as well as members of support groups of those with common health interests. Although these users felt that the Internet health care information was valuable, nearly a third also indicated concerns about reliability, misleading information, and commercial information. In this early state of Internet use, many of those populations that especially need health care and medical information (e.g., the elderly, low-income families) are least likely to have ready access to online health informa- tion. The authors argue that health professionals and product manufacturers need to provide more advice about choosing health care Web sites, evaluating health informa- tion, and online confidentiality, privacy, and misrepresentation.

The authors surveyed New Jersey physicians regarding their use of the Internet for professional purposes. The results indicated two clear messages. Physicians wish to be proactive regarding patient use of the Internet and, to do this, physicians expressed a strong need for training in Internet skills. No doubt other groups of health care pro- fessionals (had they been included in this survey) would have also expressed a desire for Internet training, the authors argue. For new health care professionals, training in Internet skills can be added to the standard professional curriculum. Special pro- grams, however, need to be developed to reach out to those health care professionals who qualified before the Internet became a consumer service. One suggestion from the authors is to use the Internet itself to provide training and guidance on the use of the Internet for health care purposes.

The author assesses the laws and regulations governing traditional pharmacies, compares these to coverage of online pharmacies, and analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of both approaches. He essentially argues that current legal and regula- tory approaches are adequate for the situation. Web-based pharmacies that are suffi- ciently new appear to have had few compliance problems thus far, the author claims. One large area of exception, however, surrounds several unlicensed companies that are alleged to have been selling the phosphodiesterase inhibitor Viagra™ (Sildenafil) by referring a customer’s medical history (as entered by the customer) to an affiliated physician who, practicing telemedicine, issues a prescription to the pharmacy, which proceeds to fill it and ship it to the customer.

HEALTH SERVICES. OREGON. PROFESSIONAL ETHICS. Managed health care deliberations in Oregon point to a civic bioethics model to resolve allocation issues through publicly articulated community values and priorities that influence legislative action. Communication practices in the Oregon experiment provide data to develop an evaluative framework to assess publicmoral deliberation in value-laden contexts, such as health care distribution. The Oregon experience also points to dialogical virtues to heighten citizens’ethical sensibilities and political will, discursive tools to inform ethical communication practices in a civic bioethics model.

1742 Chapin, J. It won’t happen to me: the role of optimistic bias in African American teens’ risky sexual practices. Howard Journal of Communications 12(1):49-59, January/March 2001. ADOLESCENTS. BLACKS. HIGH-RISK BEHAVIOR. SEXUAL ATTITUDES. SEXUAL BEHAVIOR. Discovering why adolescents take sexual risks, despite knowing the conse- quences, is a vital first step in combating the problem. Optimistic bias, the misperception that one is less likely than others to experience negative consequences from health behaviors, offers a promising explanation for adolescents’sexual risk tak- ing. Unfortunately, optimistic bias research has neglected adolescents and minorities, relying heavily on European American college students as study subjects. Results from a small-scale survey of at-risk youth indicate that African American adolescents Health Communication 781 exhibit optimisticbias, believing they are less likely than peers to becomepregnant or cause a pregnancy. Findings indicate that optimistic bias is linked to sexual activity. Although this study is one of the first to include minority youth and one of the first to confirm a relationship between optimistic bias and risk behaviors, the findings sug- gest a promising course of action in reducing risky sexual practices among youth and, eventually, teen pregnancies.

COMMUNICATION RESEARCH. FREE-MARKET ROMANTICISM. HEALTH CARE. HEALTH CARE REFORM. RHETORIC. Health policy experts have long argued that a combination of budgetary con- straints, lack of legislative expertise, and parochial attitudes make it unlikely that the U.S. states will contribute significantly to health care reform. This is particularly true of states such as Texas, which ranks last or near-to-last in virtually every measure of public health, and is dominated by conservative politics and libertarian, free market ideology. Yet, in 1997, the Texas legislature enacted the first Patient’s Bill of Rights. This article examines the political and rhetorical processes that led to successful reform and discusses the implications that success in the least likely place holds for the making of health care policy.

AFFECT. DISEASES. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. NONVERBAL BEHAVIOR. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. Physicians’nonverbal communication has sometimes been found to be associated with patients’affective satisfaction. Too little attention has been given, however, to the impact of these caregiver behaviors on patients’self-disclosure. This paper examines the relationship between physicians’ nonverbal rapport building and patients’ disclo- sure of information related to the subjective component of illness. Twelve 3rd-year residents at a large teaching hospital were videotaped during interactions with patients (N = 34). These physicians’nonverbal communication behaviors were coded in the introduction and diagnosis segments of the interactions. Patients’ verbal com- munication behaviors related to disclosure of information about the subjective com- ponent of their illness were coded across the same segments. Correlation analysis revealed significant relationships between physicians’use of some types of nonverbal behaviors and patient’s disclosures about life beyond symptoms and structural barri- ers to wellness. Implications for understanding the role of physicians’nonverbal com- munication on health care outcomes are considered. 782 Communication Abstracts

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. WORLD WIDE WEB. Web technologies are being integrated with many existing computer-based health care applications. Examples of successful implementations include expanded access to computer-based patient records and improved access to large data warehouses. In addition, Web technologies are being used to enhance the effectiveness of telemedicine applications in rural and underdeveloped areas. Web-based applications also provide a cost-effective way to increase electronic communications among pro- viders as well as between patients and providers. There are some areas for concern, however, as Web-enabled technologies open the doors to greater accessibility of health information. Issues such as information privacy and adherence to information standards are some of the important challenges being faced by many organizations. This chapter discusses the forces in the health care industry fostering increasing dependence on information technology. The benefits of implementing Web-enabled applications and some of the challenges are explored. The authors then present exploratory findings of a recent study of 103 hospitals in the United States and their use of Web-enabled technologies.

The authors of this chapter address a continuing issue in public health: How can communities incorporate, replicate, or customize intervention programs and strate- gies developed through formal research projects? Their chapter describes the use of a Web site to disseminate health intervention “technology,” or intervention planning processes, strategy development, materials, and process-based experience in inter- vention implementation, specifically addressing the problem of patient delay in seek- ing care for heart attack symptoms. Funded by the National Heart, Lung & Blood Institute, the REACT Project (Rapid Early Action for Coronary Treatment) was a community trial to target this important public health problem. Although the specific application emphasizes the problem of patient delay in heart attack, much of the inter- vention planning process and attendant education strategies are universally applicable to public health problems generally.

DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISCOURSE STRATEGIES. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. MANAGED CARE. MEDICAID. POLITICS. This article examines how routine and ostensibly rational administrative and med- ical procedures required of asthmatic Medicaid patients to gain treatment under a managed care health delivery system in fact further disenfranchise them. The author begins by exploring key cultural, organizational, and critical health communication theories that establish the body as a site of competing knowledge claims. These theo- ries problematize notions of efficiency and rationality embedded in medical and man- agement discourses and define what is at stake in the control of the body. Following this, the author details the current standards of asthma treatment therapy and Health Maintenance Organization authorization procedures expected of patients as they pur- sue better health. Finally, patient talk subverts notions of illness as an individual responsibility by providing an ironic reading of the predictability and control ostensi- bly offered by science and management discourses. This talk demonstrates that pre- cisely because they are considered rational and neutral, routine practices and proce- dures can create a process of disenfranchisement that does further violence to patient bodies.

ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCY SYNDROME. GLOBALIZATION. HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS. INDIA. MASS MEDIA. PANDEMICS. UNITED STATES. HIV/AIDS can now be considered a pandemic as it affects all parts of the world. As attentive as scholars have been to the biomedical and epidemiological aspects of the disease, they have been slower to try to understand it as a disease of transnational significations or meanings. This article looks to the ways that the conceptual catego- ries of HIV/AIDS came to India in the biomedical literature, the approaches that the media in the United States and India took in contending with these meanings, and how the categories travel globally in dominant and negotiated realms of discourse. Throughout this analysis, attention is paid to ways that high-risk groupings obscure alternative approaches based on understandings of the dynamics of poverty, history, gender, and culture. Finally, this article argues that critical approaches to science and medicine are essential to help produce a more complex science.

The authors argue that the technology, regulations, controls, and social contexts motivating traditional security and privacy practices, such as in the defense and 784 Communication Abstracts financial industries, are fundamentally different from those motivating security and privacy practices and needs in the health care community. This leads both to inappro- priate approaches as well as to wider and more unaccountable consequences. In light of the inadequacy of current regulations and the impending additional ones requiring universal health identifiers and all-electronic record keeping, they believe a funda- mental shift in rights and responsibilities is appropriate.

This article focuses on the narratives and discussion produced through a mem- ory-work study about menstruation with a collective of 8 Australian women. Unfolding to exhibit a complex and contradictory experience of the body and men- struation, the narratives show that the body of a menstruating women has cultural meanings inscribed that function to ensure the embodied experience of a menstruat- ing woman is unfavorably different from the embodied experience of a nonmenstruating woman. These women’s reflections on and discussions about the experiences express differences in the symbolic ordering of menstrual fluid as dirty or clean. The complex relationship between the meanings ascribed to menstruation and the social consequences of menstruating, especially the changed subjectivity and associations to the body, were identified.

1751 McNeilis, K. S. Analyzing communication competence in medical consultations. Health Communication 13(1):5-18, 2001. COMMUNICATION COMPETENCE. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. HEALTH SERVICES. One approach to understanding and illuminating communicative processes in medical consultation is to directly analyze discourse features within the interview. The model advanced in this paper examines sequential properties of talk in the medi- cal consultation to identify competent patterns of communication. Competence is observed in terms of participants’ abilities to align their utterances in the service of meeting both self and other goals. In this article, the Coordination and Competence Systems and its conceptual foundation of communication competence are explained along with results of its application to sample interactions. Finally, conclusions about communication competence in medical consultations are discussed in terms of impor- tant results and future directions for research.

Kellogg Foundation sponsored the Comprehensive Community Health Models Initiative (CCHMs) in three Michigan counties. CCHMs was composed of three closely related community initiatives car- ried out in the midst of a failed national health care reform effort and the continued Health Communication 785 penetration of managed care arrangements into many health care systems. This exper- imental initiative set out to test the hypothesis that traditional health care system ani- mosities and exclusionary practices could be overcome by stakeholder participation in an ongoing, structured, collaborative dialogue about improving access to health services. In the process of collecting data through surveys, interviews, content analy- sis, and observation, the authors were struck by the occurrence of several overarching tensions that they perceive to exist in their data. This article elucidates five such ten- sions and suggests how third parties such as communication researchers, evaluators, and practitioners can facilitate community health improvement initiatives and better their own data interpretation by acknowledging and understanding these tensions.

INTERVIEW CODING. INTERVIEWS. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. TEST SCORES. Based on the patient-centered clinical method, a method of scoring patient-doctor encounters that were either audiotaped or videotaped was developed. The measures allow scores to range theoretically from 0 (not at all patient-centered) to 100 (very patient-centered) communication and includes three main components. The first, exploring both the disease and illness experience, involves physicians’understanding two conceptualizations of ill health that need to be explored with patients—disease and illness. The second component, understanding the whole person, involves physi- cians exploring the context of a patient’s life setting (e.g., family, work, social sup- ports) and stage of personal development (e.g., life cycle). The third component of the model deals with finding common ground. An effective management plan requires that physicians and patients reach a mutual understanding and mutual agreement in the following three key areas: nature of the problems and priorities, goals of treatment and management, and roles of doctor and patient.

Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications, 2001, pp. 47-73. $37.95/$34.95 HEALTH COMMUNICATION. INTERNET USE. ONLINE EDUCATION. WEB SITES. The use of the Internet in health care has attracted a lot of attention lately. Numer- ous publications from the New York Times to the Journal of the American Medical Association have featured stories on how consumers are finding medical information on the World Wide Web and changing the balance of power in the practice of medi- cine. Health care practitioners are also using the Internet to keep up with their fields, communicate with patients, and to consult with each other. However, there is a dark side to Internet medicine. Inspiring stories of lives saved through the Internet get equal billing with hair-raising tales of Web-based quackery. What are we to believe? This forecast begins by describing the driving forces behind some of the high expecta- tions—the good reasons people are excited about the Web. It then presents some of the barriers to the implementation and diffusion of health care applications on the Internet—some sobering analyses to temper the enthusiasm. Finally, it presents fore- casts of six leading-edge applications for health care on the Internet. 786 Communication Abstracts

ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. HEALTH SERVICES. PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY. E-commerce activity, grounded in the development of the Internet, is challenging traditional business models and providing new paradigms for both practitioners and organization theorists. This chapter explores the developing e-commerce trends toward a case study of the Pharmaceutical Extranet Gateway, involved in Australia’s first Internet trading community, the Project Electronic Commerce and Communica- tion for Healthcare (PeCC), a project arising from federal government concern over burgeoning costs in Australia’s $40 billion health sector. It aims to introduce e-com- merce practices into the health sector with almost 700 suppliers, automating pharma- ceutical and other supplies to hospitals. Supply chain communication will be facili- tated by an Internet-based platform, allowing more efficient interaction among the pharmaceutical industry’s outlets (retail and hospital pharmacies), wholesalers, sup- pliers, and manufacturers. This chapter explores the specific PeCC case within the context of e-commerce development in Australia. In outlining its evolution, the authors focus on the Pharmaceutical Extranet Gateway as the major success so far. They conclude by examining the challenges and accomplishments that PeCC’s his- tory overall has highlighted and assess it as an example of competitive collaboration in the health care industry.

NICOTINE ADDICTION. TOBACCO INDUSTRY. This study examined the relation between professional affiliation and the framing of expert congressional testimony about nicotine’s addictiveness. Experts were cho- sen from the following three different types of sponsoring organizations: the tobacco industry, government, and independent research organizations (both pro- and anti-tobacco). The study sought to identify common technical biases and policy con- cerns that could define an overall “expert” attitude as well as differences where the experts’ framing of nicotine addiction would reveal attempts to favor their own insti- tutions. Semantic network analysis was applied to each group’s discourse, thereby clustering associated words that represented major themes to each type of expert group. Clusters revealed a common preoccupation with narrowly defined, lab-based evidence, but more locally, each group framed the issues to support its sponsor’s strategy. Health Communication 787

This chapter reviews the research on the health information-seeking process and uses this research to outline a preliminary analytical framework for investigating the use of the Internet for health information. The descriptive data gathered thus far regarding the extent of Internet use for health information and the reasons for such use, along with models of information seeking and audience exposure that have been developed within other media contexts, provide a useful starting point for theoreti- cally grounded investigations into the nature and dynamics of the use of the Internet for health information.

1758 Pechmann, C. A comparison of health communication models: risk learning versus stereotype priming. Media Psychology 3(2):189-210, 2001. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. PRIVACY PROTECTION. RISK ANALYSIS. STEREOTYPES. Health communication research and practice have been strongly influenced by the protection motivation theory, the health belief model, and similar conceptualizations. The author refers to these as risk-learning models because the goal is to teach new information about health risks and the behaviors that will minimize those risks. These models have garnered a substantial amount of empirical support and are apparently quite useful to practitioners. The goal of this article is to describe a less familiar but complementary approach to persuading people to avoid risky behaviors, which the author refers to as the stereotype priming model. The goal is to make salient preexist- ing social stereotypes about people who do not behave as advocated. The stereotype priming model posits that the stereotypes that we possess regarding the personality traits of groups of people (e.g., smokers, drunk drivers, marijuana users, people with suntans) to a large extent govern our behavior. In this view, it is sometimes useful to capitalize and reinforce preexisting stereotypes in order to encourage healthy and/or discourage unhealthy behaviors. This article reviews the traditional risk-leaning mod- els and evidence that supports them, provides corresponding information for the ste- reotype priming model, compares and contrasts the model, and discusses how the ste- reotype priming model might be used to design health communication campaigns.

Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications, 2001, pp. 237-260. $37.95/$34.95 EMPATHY. ONLINE COMMUNICATION. ONLINE USERS. The authors study some communication aspects of 100 textual communities. Their study indicates that empathy on the Internet is not unusual and is present to some extent in most communities. It builds on an earlier study of a single community, which was found to be strongly empathic. It suggests that empathy may be influenced by a community’s focus of interest. It also suggests that communities with a higher 788 Communication Abstracts proportion of women may be more empathic. The presence of moderators reduces but does not always eliminate hostile comments. The authors found that although it has always been assumed that moderators reduce hostility and that, the authors supposed, moderation would encourage empathy, the results show the picture is more complex. Some communities, such as sports communities, have quite high hostility, despite the presence of moderators. The culture established may determine what is acceptable in such community.

INTERNET USE. ONLINE EDUCATION. WEB SITES. With the popularity of the Internet on the rise, more and more people are turning to their computers for health information, advice, support, and services. This volume provides an in-depth analysis of the changes in human communication and health care resulting from the Internet revolution. The contributors represent a wide range of expertise and provide an extensive variety of examples from the micro to the macro, including information about Health Maintenance Organization Web sites, Internet pharmacies, and Web-enabled hospitals, to illustrate their findings and conclusions. The book contains 19 chapters in the following five parts: “An Overview of Experi- ences and Expectations”; “Sources of and Experience With Online Medical Informa- tion”; “Experiences Developing and Evaluating Health Information Sites”; “Experi- ences of Online Health Communities and of Organizations Moving to E-Commerce”; and “Public Policy Experiences and Expectations.”

This chapter provides an overview of the usage and content of Web sites and the information for health care. Included in the author’s examination are mailing lists, communities, and newsgroups as well as precursor and alternative medical and health information systems. Communication processes, certainly, are an important dimen- sion to health care and central to their concerns. The author explores important pri- mary health care communication processes, including patient-physician communica- tion and patient-patient support. The author also probes what might be termed superstructural communication issues such as the credibility of online information, risks of privacy invasion, and tortious and criminal liability. The author also examines the use of Internet-based health information systems as part of public communication campaigns. At the level of communication policy, he comments on issues of accessi- bility and barriers to access and use. Rounding out his investigation, the author sur- veys issues of and cross-provider boundaries. Finally, he sug- gests a summary model of the relationships among these topics and actors.

PUBLIC SECTOR. WEB SITES. The goal of this study was to compare the features of a set of commercial health database sites with those of a set of government health database sites. Given the differ- ent kinds of cultural imperatives, structural incentives and constraints, audiences, motivations, purposes, and criteria used by commercial versus government health, the authors explain that they might expect some differences in the kinds of services and features used by these two types of sources. Although it was only a preliminary study, it highlighted how cultural forms are reproduced within a new technological capabil- ity and conceptual space due to the importance of structural incentives and constraints and regardless of wider cultural imperatives. Clearly, commercial and governmental health Web sites exhibit noticeable differences somewhat in line with their different structural incentives and constraints. However, the results also demonstrate that, given preexisting social constraints on organizations, the options, or at least the choices, for creating innovative health communication systems in support of broad cultural imperatives may be quite limited, regardless of the sector.

Human Communication Re- search 27(2):253-298, April 2001. CONVERSATION ANALYSIS. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. PATIENT MEDICAL HISTORY. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. This article examines how physicians and patients interactionally accomplish the transition from the activity of history taking to that of physical examination. Prior research focuses on participants’ reliance on overt verbal resources (e.g., physicians’ requests for permission to examine patients, explanations that foreshadow examina- tion). Using the methodology of conversation analysis, this article draws on a corpus of 40 primary-care encounters to demonstrate the following: (1) In addition to verbal behavior, nonverbal behavior is integral to the accomplishment of transitions, and (2) patients’understanding of physicians’verbal and nonverbal behavior as communi- cation transitions is achieved through situating those behaviors in other contexts of embodied action, talk, activity, and social structure (i.e., the phase structure of encounters). Findings have implications for the following: (1) the theoretic relation- ship between verbal and nonverbal behavior in terms of social meaning, (2) what it means to explain transitions and reduce patients’ uncertainty, (3) the organization of physician-patient interaction, and (4) the relationship and interface between macro- and microconceptualizations of context. 790 Communication Abstracts

The relationship between residents’ and attending physi- cians’communication during primary care visits: an illustrative use of the Roter inter- action analysis system. Health Communication 13(1):33-48, 2001. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. INTERACTION ANALYSIS. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. The Roter Interaction Analysis System (RIAS) provides a tool for viewing the dynamics and consequences of patients’ and providers’ exchange of resources through the interaction of the medical dialogue. In the context of the authors’ study, RIAS analysis has been applied to 10 audiotapes of medical visits between patients and their medical residents. In 8 of these visits, an attending physician was present and consulted with the resident about the case for varying periods of time. The authors were intrigued by the variation in the communication profiles of attending physicians in the visits and therefore structured their analysis to explore the relation between resi- dents’ and attending physicians’ communication during these medical encounters. The specific objectives of the analysis are threefold. They are the following: describe the communication profiles of the primary care residents and their patients using the RIAS, describe the communication profiles of attending physicians assisting the resi- dents during these visits using the RIAS, and explore the relation between variation in attending physicians’ communication profile and the communication characteristics of the residents and their patients.

The authors of this chapter discuss and analyze the purpose, goals, development, and multimethods evaluation of the medicare.gov Web site for Medicare, the largest health insurance program in America. The evaluation covers a wide range of domains, such as user characteristics, reactions, and uses, attainment of site standards, usability, methodological considerations in Web site evaluation, and the role of assistive tech- nology. The evaluation included online surveys of Internet users and specifically of visitors to the site, focus groups, “think aloud” interviews, expert assessments, and assessments by visually impaired users. The results led to a set of recommendations for revisions to the site.

Health Communication 13(1):49-60, 2001. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. INTERVIEW CODING. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. VERBAL RESPONSE. According to classic descriptions by Parsons (1951, 1969), the physician’s role in medical interviews is characterized by high status and control vis-á-vis the patient. These complementary roles are not static, however, but shift substantially as the Health Communication 791 interview proceeds from taking a medical history, to conducting a physical examina- tion, to concluding the interview with explanations and treatment plans. That is, although such interviews may be highly scripted—following a normative pattern that is predictable across patients and occasions—they are also complex, requiring a sequence of different relations between the roles to complete the necessary tasks. The authors used a verbal response mode coding system to derive quantitative indexes of physician and patient roles in three segments of each of the eight medical interviews. They then used the indexes to characterize some of the complexity of these encounters.

PEDIATRIC HEALTH CARE. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. Using audio- and videotapes of acute pediatric encounters, this study (1) identifies pediatricians’practices of next speaker selection when soliciting the problem presen- tation, (2) identifies factors that bear on next speaker selection, and (3) examines the consequences of physicians’ selection practices for whom ultimately presents the problem. Although doctors most frequently select children as problem presenters, parents are the most likely to actually present the child’s problem. However, parents nonetheless orient to their children’s rights to answer questions that select them as next speaker. Thus, the actual problem presenter emerges as the result of a process of interactional negotiation rather than dominance or control. This study also suggests communication resources that may increase the child’s participation in presenting the problem.

1768 Street, R. L., Jr. and Millay, B. Analyzing patient participation in medical encounters. Health Communication 13(1):61-73, 2001. COMMUNICATION PROCESSES. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. In this article, the authors have three objectives. First, they describe the conceptual foundation and measurement strategies used in their approach to analyzing the com- municative acts that constitute patient participation in medical encounters. Second, they apply their method to an analysis of nine videotaped recordings of physician- patient interactions. The following two research questions were examined: (1) To what extent do patients ask questions, express concerns, and engage in assertive behavior in their interactions with physicians? and (2) Are patients more active com- municators when their physicians use partnership building (e.g., soliciting the patient’s opinion) and supportive talk (e.g., reassurance, encouragement)? The authors conclude with a discussion of challenges and prospects for developing more ecologically valid and efficient procedures for assessing patient participation in care. 792 Communication Abstracts

In this chapter, the authors propose that the growth of managed care, coupled with the capabilities and growing popularity of the Internet, creates an ideal opportunity for using telecomputing technology to provide health services to people who suffer from chronic diseases. Furthermore, the authors describe their Internet program, DiabetesNet, which has been deployed within a managed care environment to provide care and resources to people with diabetes. They then discuss the theoretical frame- works guiding the development and implementation of DiabetesNet and an initial evaluation of its effectiveness.

1770 Vitellone, N. Watching AIDS, condoms and serial killers in the Australian “grim reaper” TV campaign. Continuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies 15(1):33-48, April 2001. ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCY SYNDROME. AUSTRALIA. CONDOMS. CONTRACEPTION. TELEVISION ADVERTISING. WOMEN. Cultural analysts of AIDS have argued that the figuring of gender in popular AIDS medical campaigns promoting heterosexual HIV/AIDS awareness takes place through the specific representation of the female body. More specifically, television health promotional campaigns that aim to reduce the transmission of HIV/AIDS by advocating monogamous heterosex or safer heterosex (i.e., with condom) are often understood by these cultural analysts to produce the binaries masculine/feminine and self/other through the image of women’s bodies. Moreover, the representation of women as vulnerable and potential victims of HIV/AIDS in AIDS television is often considered to constitute normative gendered heterosexuality. Although the image of women as vulnerable victims is considered key for the making of heterosexual repre- sentations of AIDS, analysts of AIDS culture also point to the way in which self/other relations are figured in AIDS representations through literal images of, and meta- phoric references to, monsters. However, in this article, by addressing such theories of the monster, the author suggests that the heterosexualization of AIDS representations in AIDS television concerns not so much the monstrous and the body of the feminine other but, rather, the making of a masculine self. And, in making this move, the author suggests that cultural analyses of serial killers may have much purchase for under- standing AIDS culture. To do so, the author focuses on the Australian “Grim Reaper” television advertisement, a campaign that has been interpreted through the monster metaphor. Health Communication 793

1771 von Friederichs-Fitzwater, M. M. and Gilgun, J. Relational control in physician- patient encounters. Health Communication 13(1):75-87, 2001. HEALTH COMMUNICATION. PHYSICIAN-PATIENT INTERACTION. Health care providers and patients depend on their communication to gather and provide information in health care situations, but we still do not know much about the complexities and subtleties of health communication as it is carried out in the medical encounter. Analyzing doctor-patient encounters can provide information that will be helpful in better understanding this relationship and in providing high quality, patient-centered health care. In a managed care setting, there is also a need to under- stand how to implement a patient-centered model within limited time constraints. The physicians and patients analyzed in this study tended to concentrate their messages into only three of the nine possible relational categories: support, extension, and other. They also tended to use predominantly transitory symmetrical exchanges. It would first appear that symmetricrelationships are the most desirable. After all, if the doctor and patient treat each other as equals, then struggles over dominance should disap- pear. Although the findings in the study indicate a more equal relationship on the sur- face, on further examination the interactions appear to be doctor-centered or dis- ease-centered, with a pattern of the doctor frequently changing the topic, asking more questions, and talking more than the patient. Patients, on the other hand, exhibit sig- nificantly greater domineeringness as they attempt to shift the power through rela- tional control.

The studies indicate that there are a number of barriers that impede targeted dissemination of the CME program. These include (1) an underestimation of the resources needed to translate a typical oral CME report into one that is strictly avail- able over the Internet, (2) a lack of rural physician utilization of and reliance on com- puters, (3) the vital role of marketing for a new media of CME in a highly competitive market of CME providers, and (4) internal competition from departments with com- peting agendas and missions.

HEALTH INFORMATION. HEALTH MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATIONS. WEB SITES. The author analyzes the Web sites of leading HMOs to measure how much they exploit the potential of this technology to meet their simultaneous goals of health 794 Communication Abstracts maintenance of their members at the lowest possible cost. Using the Mayo Clinic’s Oasis Web site as a benchmark and the transtheoretical model of health communica- tion as a guide, the author examines the presence and comprehensiveness of certain types of information and levels of interactivity on the selected Web sites. She found that no single site scored near the maximum available points in all categories. The highest score—by Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Mid-Atlantic in Maryland—was only 51% of the maximum number of points available. Overall, the sites in this sample did a better job of providing their members with information to encourage a healthy lifestyle. However, the author adds that posting of upcoming health classes accounted for a large portion of the scores in this category rather than hard information or feature articles and testimonials to raise consciousness, as recommended by the transtheoretical model.

In this chapter, the author expands on the influential recent work of Delli Carpini and Keeter (1996) and Bartels (1996) by considering how congressional election out- comes across the 1990s might have differed if the electorate had been “fully informed.” In this way, the author joins a burgeoning and important debate on deliber- ation and its effects. The author’s analysis differs from previous studies by imputing informed preferences for nonvoters as well as voters. The author corroborates recent findings that candidate preferences are influenced by information, although he also shows that a variety of political factors condition the nature and magnitude of these influences.

MEDIA COVERAGE. MEDIA EFFECTS. POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. PUBLIC OPINION. This article reports an analysis of Americans’ opinions about the news media’s fairness in covering public affairs. The data come from the 1996 and 1998 National Election Studies, which contained variables tapping exposure to and opinions about the news media as well as key political dispositions—partisanship, ideology, and opinion about presidential and congressional job performance—and a plethora of demographicvariables. The data show that people who adhere to traditional moral codes and are misanthropic tend not to trust the news media to cover politics fairly. In a presidential election year, opinion about the president’s job performance affects per- ceptions of the press’s fairness. In an off-year election, however, opinion about the president’s job performance is replaced by opinion about how the Congress has been doing its job. In addition, perception of how the media covered the Lewinsky scandal also influenced opinion about the press’s fairness in general. Political Communication 795

1776 Benoit, W. L. Framing through temporal metaphor: the “bridges” of Bob Dole and Bill Clinton in their 1996 acceptance addresses. Communication Studies 52(1):70-84, Spring 2001. WILLIAM J. CLINTON. ROBERT DOLE. FRAME ANALYSIS. METAPHOR. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS. PRESIDENTIAL RHETORIC. This essay argues that Bill Clinton’s 1996 Acceptance Address enacted rhetorical framing through skillful use of metaphor. Dole’s Acceptance Address contained an off-handed suggestion that he would be a bridge to an earlier time of tranquility; essentially, a bridge to the past. Two weeks later, Clinton insistently proposed that he would build a “bridge to the future,” rejecting what he represented as Dole’s “bridge to the past.” Clinton’s metaphors effectively functioned as frames for favorably inter- preting himself and his agenda as well as for unfavorably interpreting Dole and his agenda. A new form of framing transformation (“metaphoric”) is identified and sug- gestions for effective use of metaphors are derived from the evaluation of Clinton’s discourse. This case study illustrates how rhetorical critics can support claims of effects from rhetorical discourses.

1777 Birchall, C. Conspiracy theories and academic discourses: the necessary possibility of popular (over)interpretation. Continuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies 15(1):67-76, April 2001. ACADEMIA. CONSPIRACY THEORY. CULTURAL STUDIES. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. The author discusses academic thinking about interpretation more generally as she points toward our lack of sustained and self-reflexive attention to our interpretive work as cultural studies academics. She is interested in the fact that traditional aca- demic discourses revile conspiracy theories. By examining the way in which conspir- acy theories are represented and circulated in popular culture, the author suggests that this may be because these theories make the process of interpretation too explicit. Conspiracy theories are understood by their critics as reading too much from the text, seeing what is not there, and making interpretations that are not justified by the evi- dence. These academic discourses require us to make clear what we normally take for granted and do not need to justify: how we interpret the culture around us and how we decide what are suitable readings of texts.

GUN CONTROL LEGISLATION. MEDIA COVERAGE. MEDIA EFFECTS. POLITICS. This article examines the way in which the news media frame public policy issues and the extent to which other political players (e.g., interest groups, politicians) influ- ence the issue framing policy. The authors’ analysis focuses on the issue of gun con- trol, comparing the rhetoric generated by interest groups and public officials on the Brady Bill and Assault Weapons Ban with actual network news coverage of this legis- lation from 1988 to 1996. Results indicate that both sets of political players employed 796 Communication Abstracts several interpretative issue frames and worked hard to put their preferred themes on the agenda. However, at times, the media intervened in the framing process, espe- cially as the debate matured. Specifically, the news media (1) structured the overall tone of the gun control debate, (2) adopted a distribution of framing perspectives dif- ferent from that of politicians and interest groups, and (3) packaged policy discourse more often than not in terms of the “culture of violence” theme. These findings point toward previously ignored media effects and attest to the potential role the media play in shaping public policy debates.

1779 Carlson, T. Gender and political advertising across cultures: a comparison of male and female political advertising in Finland and the U.S. European Journal of Communica- tion 16(2):131-154, June 2001. CROSS-CULTURAL COMPARISON. CROSS-NATIONAL COMPARISON. FINLAND. GENDER DIFFERENCES. GENDER STEREOTYPES. POLITICAL ADVERTISING. POLITICAL CULTURE. UNITED STATES. This article addresses the question of whether the relationship between gender and televised political advertising observed in the United States holds true regardless of context or if it is conditioned by its setting. Results from a secondary comparative analysis of the advertising of male and female legislative candidates in Finland and the United States are reported. Although the two countries are contrasting in several respects, most notably in the extent of women’s political representation, the findings suggest that the female candidates’ communication strategies, independent of coun- try, resemble those of their male colleagues. Hence, hard issues and traits, stereotypically attributed to male politicians, are emphasized over soft issues. Yet the women candidates in both contexts also differ from the male candidates by addition- ally softening up this candidate image. Thus, it is concluded that this dual strategy of the female candidates, independent of country, reflects the need to consider persistent gender stereotypes on the electoral arena.

Instead of the absence of free choice, the situation has become reversed, with so many trivial and meaningless choices inundating a culture such as our own that the principle of freedom itself becomes devalued.

The book contains the follow- ing seven chapters: “Democracy and Doublethink,” “Newsspeak for a New Millen- nium,” “The Despair of Possibility,” “The Bones of ‘Saint’ Hermann Goering,” “The Masks of Passion,” “Alexander’s Bitter Tears,” and “Leopards in the Temple.” Political Communication 797

A research agenda set forth in the 1975 book Political Communication is well suited for study in an era when conventional mass communications give way to less centralized channels. Features of this approach include a focus on behavior and cognitions rather than inferred attitudes, close attention to measurement of media experience, conceptualization of curvilinear processes that occur over time, compara- tive theorizing that can be tested across different national systems, and reconceptualization of communication as a process defined more by its functions than whether it occurs via mass media or interpersonal channels.

1782 Chang, C. The impacts of emotion elicited by print political advertising on candidate evaluations. Media Psychology 3(2):91-118, 2001. ATTITUDES TOWARD ADVERTISING. EMOTIONAL RESPONSE. POLITICAL ADVERTISING. PRINT MEDIA. This study examines viewers’emotional responses to print political advertising. It demonstrates that positive and negative (direct attack) political advertising differ in the emotional responses that they elicit. Consistent with prior research on emotion, positive and direct-attack political advertising generates different amounts of mes- sage recall and produces different quantities of positive and negative cognitive responses. Most important, this study establishes the importance of ad-evoked emo- tion in the formation process of ad exposure and candidate evaluation. Integrating findings from this study, a model is proposed that establishes the relationship of the following four important variables: ad valence, ad-evoked emotion, attitude toward the ad, and candidate liking. It suggests that (1) ad valence has an impact on attitude toward the candidate via the mediation of ad-evoked emotion, (2) ad valence has an impact on attitude toward the ad via the mediation of ad-evoked emotion, (3) attitude toward the ad has an impact on candidate evaluation, and (4) ad-evoked emotion can explain variations of candidate evaluations beyond that which can be accounted for by attitude toward the ad.

1783 Cooren, F. Translation and articulation in the organization of coalitions: the great whale river case. Communication Theory 11(2):178-200, May 2001. NARRATIVE ANALYSIS. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. POLITICAL COALITIONS. This article presents a new method of analysis that enables us to study the strengths and weaknesses of the associations created during the organization of coalitions. Based on a case study, this model shows that organizing a coalition consists of making different agendas compatible by establishing a series of translations between them. As illustrated in this article, these translation activities are enacted through narrative forms in which actors (individual or collective) construct points of articulation between their different objectives. It is therefore the narrative embedding of a series of actions that ultimately structure social and physical reality and constitute what we call a coalition. To illustrate this new approach to organizational communication, the 798 Communication Abstracts analytical model presented is applied to analyze the associations involved in the orga- nization of coalitions during an environmental controversy, the Great Whale River project.

POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. RHETORICAL ANALYSIS. Electronic democracy rhetoric has proliferated with the growth of the Internet as a popular communications medium. This rhetoric is largely dominated by liberal indi- vidualist assumptions. Communitarianism has provided a resource for an alternative vision of electronic democracy. A third model, deliberative democracy, has recently been employed by electronic democrats who want to move beyond the individual- ism/communitarianism opposition. In this article, the author outlines each of these visions, describing the democratic assumptions and electronic democracy practices that each embraces. In particular, the author explores the ways in which each vision sees the Internet as aiding its cause. The author concludes by pointing to the relative lack of research into the possibility of the deliberative position being realized through cyberspace. The author suggests that a more rigorous analysis of the intersection between the Internet and deliberative democracy would not only be sociologically fruitful but also may provide interesting possibilities for enhancing contemporary democratic forms.

POLITICAL COVERAGE. PUBLIC BROADCASTING. Previous research has suggested that public broadcasters in Europe have tradition- ally approached and covered election campaigns in a cautious and reactive way, often adhering to the official party agendas. Based on interviews, newsroom observations, and content-analytic indicators, the 1998 national and 1999 European election cam- paign coverage of the Dutch public broadcaster was investigated. Newsroom observa- tions and interviews with reporters and news executives revealed an increasingly proactive and selective editorial approach to election campaigns. The analyses showed that the two elections were approached similarly but given different priority in the news. The content analysis showed a decrease in the amount of election cover- age and a more analyticand interpretive journalisticspin on electionstories when compared with earlier elections. The implications of the results are discussed in light of the changes in political communication and the increasingly competitive environ- ments in which public broadcasters are challenged to operate.

Political Communi- cation 18(2):107-122, April/June 2001. CROSS-NATIONAL COMPARISON. EURO (MONETARY UNIT). EUROPE. FRAME ANALYSIS. NEWS COVERAGE. POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. TELEVISION NEWS. This study of the main evening television news programs in four European coun- tries focuses on the framing of news surrounding a major European event, the Janu- ary 1, 1999 introduction of the common European currency, the euro. The authors investigated the visibility of political and economic news in general and of the launch of the euro in particular. They found variations across countries in the emphasis on political and economic news, with the proportion of the newscast normally devoted to these subjects ranging from 45% to 60%. Journalists in all countries were more likely to emphasize conflict (rather than economic consequence) in framing general politi- cal and economic news. In the coverage of the launch of the euro, there was a greater emphasis on framing the news in terms of economic consequences. The findings are discussed in terms of influence on framing practices internal and external to journal- ism and the value of the cross-national comparative approach.

1787 Dickerson, P. Disputing with care: analysing interviewees’treatment of interviewers’ prior turns in televised political interviews. Discourse Studies 3(2):203-222, May 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISPUTES. POLITICAL INTERVIEWS. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. UNITED KINGDOM. A wide range of previous research has pointed out important interactional features of televised political interviews, including the cooperative dimensions to encounters between interviewers and interviewees and the extent to which news interviews differ to everyday conversation. Drawing on an analysis of 29 televised political interviews broadcast in the United Kingdom, this article seeks to build on such work. A prelimi- nary quantitative inspection of the data suggested that a sizable minority of inter- viewee responses “heabably” challenged the prior interviewer turn. A conversation analyticapproachto the turn-response pairs suggested that although a wide range of interviewer turns were potentially vulnerable to such problematizing moves, the chal- lenges were often boundaried. That is, in making challenges, interviewees typically refrained from developing them in highly personalized terms; they often raised them in passing and, in cases in which the interviewee refused to cooperate with interview- ers, they typically did so by producing a justification. Further analysis suggested that both interviewers and interviewees did not take the steps to ward off disagreement commonly found in everyday conversation. Instead, both interviewer and interviewee seemed to orientate to the normality of disagreement. 800 Communication Abstracts

1788 Dudink, S. Cuts and bruises and democratic contestation: male bodies, history and politics. European Journal of Cultural Studies 4(2):153-170, May 2001. CULTURAL STUDIES. DEMOCRACY. MALE BODY METAPHOR. POLITICAL CULTURE. POLITICAL HISTORY. POLITICS. The neoclassical model of the male body held a special place in late 18th-century political culture. Its impermeability, resulting from neoclassicism’s focus on line and contour, was especially invested with political meanings. It symbolized political and moral regeneration and helped create a stoic male political subjectivity that validated the seizure of power by revolutionary citizens. This article discusses the meanings of visual representation of mutilated, violently opened male bodies against the backdrop of the importance of the impermeable, neoclassical male body. The author argues for understanding those bodies as testifying to the indeterminacy that came with modern democratic political life. Following French political philosopher Claude Lefort, the author describes democratic society as a society that cannot be represented through the organic totality of the body. Society and politics under democracy are of an open-ended nature, and opened bodies testify to this and unsettle the appearance of political stability and “closure” that representations of the ideal body attempt to create.

1789 Fishman, D. A. The flag burning controversy and the sui generis argument. New Jer- sey Journal of Communication 9(1):45-62, Spring 2001. FIRST AMENDMENT. FLAG BURNING. SPEECH BEHAVIOR. SUI GENERIS ARGUMENT. SYMBOLISM. This article contends that the flag burning controversy in American politics during the past two decades is anchored in a discussion of symbolic speech. The article exam- ines the degree of protection that symbolic speech provides to flag burning and the emergence of a sui generis position that would remove flag burning from traditional First Amendment safeguards. The article is divided into three sections. The first sec- tion examines the evolution of the construct of symbolic speech. The second section discusses the governmental speech thesis that the flag represents a sui generis excep- tion from traditional First Amendment concerns. The third section analyzes the flaws with the government speech thesis. The conclusion explores why discussions about flag burning issues are treated differently by the public than by the courts.

STOKELY CARMICHAEL. POSTMODERNISM. RHETORIC. RHETORICAL ANALYSIS. RHETORICAL STRATEGIES. On Saturday, October 29, 1966, Stokely Carmichael spoke to about 10,000 people in the open air Greek Theater on the campus of the University of California at Berke- ley. His speech was part of an all-day conference on Black Power organized by the Students for a Democratic Society. In the speech at Berkeley, Carmichael revealed a potential in discourse that enabled him to develop, from out of the confines of a tacti- cal rhetoric, a strategic rhetoric of Blackness. Close analysis of Carmichael’s speech, grounded in Burke’s paradox of purity, illuminates the internal logicof BlackPower Political Communication 801 as well as Carmichael’s use of reflexivity, reversal, deconstruction, and reconstruction of dialectical terms and relationships. Contemporary discursive practices addressing issues of civil rights and race are then examined in light of the principles and purposes developed by Carmichael. The results challenge rhetorical scholars and critics to dis- rupt reliance on dialectical constructions within discourses of race.

Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, 2001, pp. 123-144. $75.00/$24.95 CONTENT ANALYSIS. POLITICAL DISCOURSE. POLITICAL PARTIES. In this chapter, the author provides an empirical examination of how political party images have been projected between 1948 and 1996. Using a database of campaign speeches, political ads, campaign debates, and news media coverage, the author employs a content analytic scheme to measure the rhetorical and political nuances of party tokens in political discourse. She finds that elites have used party descriptors in much the same way during the past 50 years, contrary to what party decline scholars might assume. Parties are presented rather positively and in hierarchical—rather than egalitarian—terms as an inevitable part of the electoral system. Parties, in short, con- tinue to have a kind of rhetorical vitality.

Today’s mass media are increasingly accused of stealing our future, killing our culture, and scaring us to death. This volume examines why this is happening, who is the culprit, and what we can do about it. Only 12% of the public thinks the media influ- ence them. If that is true, why would a company spend $2.4 million for 1 minute of advertising time on the Super Bowl? Clearly, media advertising influences product sales; why, then, the author asks, would not media programming influence attitudes? The author argues that corpocracy, de factor government by mega-corporations, is replacing democracy and transforming legitimate communication on the publicly owned airwaves into propaganda for profiteering. And most of us have no idea what is happening. Using interviews with Americans prominent in broadcasting as well as other sources, the author examines how we are duped by the media and how media monopoly gatekeeping screens out the public from genuine communication, trading free speech and individuality for the change to buy, buy, buy and buy more, making these moneyed moguls even richer and degrading the public interest with which they are charged.

Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2001, pp. 1-43. $125.00/$70.00 COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. DEMOCRACY. The communication discipline has harbored a long interest in the relationship between communication technology and democracy. In this review, the authors assess 802 Communication Abstracts the literature addressing this relationship in the context of new communication tech- nologies. They begin by exploring the way that causal claims have been conceptual- ized and go on to consider five “root theses” that represent the major currents of thought that flow through this literature. Each of the following five root theses is itself an umbrella for a cluster of similar hypotheses: decentralization-centralization, infor- mation access, interactional access, liberal democracy, and deliberative democracy. The authors then consider how these theses are implicated in the following four major sites of theorizing about the democratizing effects of new technologies: the interper- sonal, organizational, government-political, and community networking contexts.

FRAME ANALYSIS. INTERNET. MASS MEDIA. POLITICAL ADVERTISING. POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS. POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. During the past 35 years, the rapid development of communication technology, the decline of political parties, a growing culture of cynicism, and the rise of the Internet have all affected U.S. political campaigns. Although these forces seem powerful, little scientific evidence has been gathered of their impact. This volume presents work from scholars in two disciplines—communication and political science—on how modern election campaigns are affected by such forces. The authors look at how voters acquire political information, how issues are “framed” for them by the mass media, how attitudes about social groups are created, and how political advertising uses pop- ular culture to affect voting patterns. The result is an overview of why modern politi- cal campaigns turn out as they do.

1795 Hetherington, M. J. Declining trust and a shrinking policy agenda: why media schol- ars should care. Hart, R. P. and Shaw, D. R., eds. Communication in U.S. elections: new agendas. Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, 2001, pp. 105-122. $75.00/$24.95 AGENDA SETTING. MASS MEDIA. POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS. POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. TRUST. In this chapter, the author continues his recent work on the role of political trust in recent elections. The author makes a case that voters are less trusting of government today than in previous years. He proceeds by arguing that this is neither an odd nor a disconnected finding. Instead, he argues, trust has a strong and direct influence on political attitudes and orientations. Voters’lack of trust constrains the range of issue positions and behaviors on the publicagenda and, along with a cynicalmedia, it makes people feel ineffectual as voters. Clearly, he says, these are dangerous effects.

POLITICS. PUBLIC TELEVISION. The introduction of commercial television in West European countries during the 1980s was accompanied by a fierce discussion about the consequences of ending the Political Communication 803 monopoly of publicbroadcasting.Although proponents of market liberation argued that the outcome would produce greater diversity of contents and audiences, oppo- nents feared negative consequences from this development. Against this background, the study reported in this article analyzes data from the European Union (EU) member states to assess the relationship between the preference for either public or commer- cial television and political knowledge. Findings show that in most countries, a prefer- ence for public television goes hand in hand with greater knowledge of EU political matters. The conclusion considers the consequences of these findings.

1797 Iyengar, S. The method is the message: the current state of political communication research. Political Communication 18(2):225-229, April/June 2001. COMMUNICATION RESEARCH. POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. RESEARCH TRENDS. Political communication has emerged as a focal point to scholars in political sci- ence communications and allied social sciences. Although the field’s prominence is attributed in part to well-documented changes in the American political process, its newfound stature also stems from the gradual accumulation of evidence demonstrat- ing that media management actually does yield significant rewards. In charting the progression of political communication as a distinct field of research, one cannot help noticing the close overlap between development in the field and the scholarly career of Steven Chaffee. Over the past 31 or more years, Chaffee’s work can be found in vir- tually every nook and cranny of the political communication literature. One of the most persistent themes in his work is methodological, even though Chaffee himself is more of a methods gadfly than a practicing methodologist. He was among the first to recognize the limitations. He responded by developing more precise indicators of media exposure and by incorporating longitudinal designs into his effects studies. These innovations started to push the field in new methodological directions. The ensuing methodological ferment has contributed significantly to the current renais- sance in political communication research.

1798 Kantola, A. Leaving public places: antipolitical and antipublic forces of the transna- tional economy. Javnost: The Public 8(1):59-74, April 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. FINLAND. PRIVATE SECTOR. PUBLIC SECTOR. PUBLIC SPHERE. WORLD ECONOMY. During the past 20 years, there has been a change of political regime from state-controlled markets to market liberalization. This article asks how these changes are affecting the role of the public sphere. The particular case is the economic crisis of Finland in the 1990s. The author looks at interviews of the country’s most important political decision makers: How do they perceive the role of politics and public in the new market regime? A new political culture favoring the market over the state, the pri- vate over the public, and the experts over the politicians seems to appear. The elite interviews reveal an antipolitical and antipublic discourse, which tries to negate the relevance or to narrow the scope of public discussion. A formal transnational Euro- pean democracy is not, however, a simple solution to these problems. The Finnish example shows how the antipublic forces of economic expertise and bureaucracy are emphasized also on the European level. Thus, it is suggested that rather than choosing between national or transnational publicsphere, we need to study how the publiclife 804 Communication Abstracts is embedded in the structure of political power and how various political ideologies and powers aim at colonizing or closing the public sphere.

1799 Kevin, D. Coverage of the European parliament elections of 1999: national public spheres and European debates. Javnost: The Public 8(1):21-38, April 2001. EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT. EUROPEAN UNION. NEWS COVERAGE. PUBLIC SPHERE. This article is based on the results of an eight-country study on national media cov- erage of European political and cultural affairs, which included the final week of the European Parliament election campaigns. The research was carried out during two monitoring periods in 1999 with the cooperation of partner institutions in France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Coverage of the campaigns in each country provided an opportunity to examine media debates during a political event at a level above the nation-state. The coding of new items and articles allowed for a quantitative assessment of news coverage and fre- quency of reference to particular topics, whereas a qualitative overview of coverage by national experts facilitated the comparison of national debates. Although the elec- tions represent a process of political participation outside the national sphere, there is no corresponding common sphere of debate, which can be examined in relation to this exercise of citizenship. Comparing the activity in the various national spheres high- lighted some of the distinct national ideas and debates about European Union mem- bership while bringing to the fore some common concerns about debates that reflect growing political and economic integration.

1800 Kleinstuber, H. J. Habermas and the publicsphere: from a German to a European per- spective. Javnost: The Public 8(1):95-108, April 2001. EUROPEAN UNION. GERMANY. JÜRGEN HABERMAS. PUBLIC SPHERE. This article examines the nature and relevance of Jürgen Habermas’s theory of the publicsphere in the present European situation. The paper notes that the current debate in the English-speaking world is not matched by a similar discussion in Ger- many. This is partly because Habermas’s classic text was first published in Germany in 1962, and the considerable discussion it provoked ran out of steam some years ago. The Anglo-Saxon debate differs from its German predecessor in two important ways. In the first place, the choice of the phrase “public sphere” as a translation for the origi- nal Offentlichkeit introduced issues into the English discussion, notably the spatial metaphor, that were absent from the German original. Second, in the German-speak- ing world there has been a much longer and broader discussion of Offentlichkeit, last- ing for more than two centuries and concentrating particularly on literary and aes- theticissues. Very far from appearing as a startlingly original insight, as it did in the English-speaking world, Habermas’s work was understand in Germany as a small part of this more general tradition.

In this chapter, the author provides some of the first empirical data collected on candidate web sites. He asks the following fundamental questions about the new medium: Is the information it provides novel or does the World Wide Web repeat what can be found elsewhere? Does information presented on the Web take advantage of the interactive possibilities presented by this new technology? The author examines Senate candidate Web sites across the 1996 and 1998 election cycles and offers some preliminary findings. He finds, for example, that Web information is not always novel but that it tends to be more detailed and more positive than information culled from other sources. Second, he finds that the Web was not a high priority for campaigns during those years, perhaps because both the possibilities and dangers of this new technology were regarded in equal measure by the campaigns.

1802 Kunelius, R. and Sparks, C. Problems with a European publicsphere: an introduction. Javnost: The Public 8(1):5-20, April 2001. EUROPEAN UNION. MASS MEDIA. PUBLIC SPHERE. This introduction discusses some of the problems of applying the concept of the publicsphere to the currentsituation in the European Union (EU). The EU is a body that is beginning to have many of the features that were historically associated with states, and therefore the issue of openness to public scrutiny that occasioned the birth of the classical public sphere begin to become important in this new context. The citi- zens of the EU gain their information mostly from the mass media, but these remain predominantly organized along the lines of the constituent states of the union rather than on any genuinely transnational basis. This means that there is always a tension between the discussion of issues as European issues and their discussion as issues of national interest within Europe. The concept of a public sphere is a much-contested one, and it is important to determine whether it is the correct starting point for consid- ering the openness of political processes in the EU. The introduction reviews some of the issues, and concludes that it seems very difficult to hold on to some of the strong formulations that are associated with the category.

1803 Kuo, S. H. Reported speech in Chinese political discourse. Discourse Studies 3(2):181-202, May 2001. CHINESE. COMMUNICATION STYLES. NEWS COVERAGE. POLITICAL DISCOURSE. POLITICAL NEWS. TELEVISION NEWS. Based on videotaped data from five televised 1990 Taipei mayoral debates, this article examines the use of reported speech in Chinese political discourse, with a 806 Communication Abstracts particular focus on direct quotation. The findings are that direct quotation or con- structed dialogue not only creates the rhetorical effect of vividness and immediacy, but also establishes interpersonal involvement. More important, the three debates in this study use direct quotation as an indirect strategy for self-promotion (i.e., to pre- sent a positive image of the speakers themselves) and for denigration (i.e., to present a negative image of their opponents). Citing someone else’s words objectifies debaters’ praise of themselves and vilification of their opponents, thereby heightening the reli- ability of their claims. These claims are presented as shared knowledge and reference is made to an external source. However, direct quotation is also a strategy of eva- sion—the speakers disclaim responsibility and distance themselves from the sources of knowledge. Finally, the different use of citations made by the three debaters also marks their different communicative styles. Although the two politicians who speak more formally generally tend to cite figures from newspapers or magazines, the one who speaks most casually frequently employs direct quotations.

MEDIA COVERAGE. UNITED STATES. In the shadow of globalization, international newsmaking remains inherently ethnocentric, nationalistic, and even state-centered. Major U.S. media frame the transfer of Hong Kong from British to Chinese sovereignty in terms of four dominant ideological packages, that is, the United States is (1) a “new guardian” of Hong Kong, (2) in an emerging cold war between the West and China, whereas Hong Kong (3) will suffer from the erosion of freedom and democracy under Chinese rule on the one hand, and (4) will be a “Trojan horse” to spearhead China’s political and economic change on the other. In sum, the media rally around the “star-spangled banner” to bang the democracy drum in consonance with elite consensus and foreign policy. Their news net is narrowly cast. To rescue the handover from being a dull media event, the media seek to hype up their stories. Even the lighthearted pieces flaunt ideological messages.

In this chapter, the author offers one of the first comparable studies of the U.S. Congress. In particular, he focuses on how the party leaders communicated their posi- tions on the issue of tax cuts during the 1999 session. He finds that parties sought to influence the language and activities of individual members, both on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives and also in their home districts. Even the casual observer of politics cannot help but notice the similarity in phrasing employed by members of the same party on the issues of the day. The author gives insight into how and why these “talking points” were developed. Political Communication 807

POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. RESEARCH TRENDS. This article discusses four basic characteristics of Steven Chaffee’s research—going beyond the “common research wisdom,” careful explication of con- cepts, avoiding unsubstantiated charges against the media, and investigation of the social aspects of communication. The evolution of political socialization research is used as an example of how these characteristics have strengthened Chaffee’s contri- bution to that area and to the larger field of political communication. It is argued that the future of this field would benefit from emulation of these characteristics. Con- tinuing problems of political communication research are noted, and various emerg- ing problems are discussed.

Political Communica- tion 18(2):231-236, April/June 2001. STEVEN CHAFFEE. COMMUNICATION RESEARCH. POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. RESEARCH TRENDS. In response to the theme of a panel discussing Steve Chaffee’s retirement from Stanford University, the author outlines just a few of many changes in the nature of the work that researchers do that are either on the horizon or already in progress. These are ways that the study of political communication study strikes the author as quite different from when she was being trained as a graduate student of Chaffee’s more than 10 years ago. Many of the issues and questions the author poses in this article also form the bulk of the author’s own “to-do” list with respect to areas where the author thinks the field is in need of further research.

In this chapter, the author proposes a fresh way of understanding political advertis- ing. Rather than focusing on “positive” or “negative” or “comparison” spots, the author looks at advertising in a broader cultural context. He begins with negativity, the epicenter of the political advertising debate. He then suggests that we broaden our gaze to include emotion and cognition, and more closely examine the holistic audio- visual and narrative conventions of storytelling in the televisual age. He argues that political ads rely heavily on popular culture to connect with voters on a more emo- tional level than is typically acknowledged. He conducts several case studies and finds evidence of at least four types of genre-specific negative ads. Moreover, the author claims that the audiovisual and narrative elements of an ad can evoke emotional responses that overwhelm the ad’s substantive message. 808 Communication Abstracts

In this chapter, the author harkens back to the themes of the Columbia School in his examination of how political talk affects voters. The author does so by integrating a theoretical and empirical understanding of interpersonal communication with the well-trodden framework of media effects. In particular, he argues that interpersonal communication after exposure to media coverage both mobilizes and polarizes the electorate. In so doing, the author touches not only on the classic arguments by Berelson et al. but also on the recent research on television advertising effects by Ansolabehere and Iyengar (1996) and Finkel and Geer (1998).

POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. PUBLIC OPINION. SPIRAL OF SILENCE. This study examines a key issue in spiral of silence research—whether the realism of the setting in which respondents are asked to express opinions affects their willing- ness to do so. Some reviews of spiral of silence theory have argued that survey mea- sures do not capture the effect adequately because respondents see them as too hypo- thetical. In this study, the authors used a split-ballot technique to compare two closely related ways of assessing willingness to express opinions. One method is a standing question that asks respondents whether they would, hypothetically, be willing to express an opinion in a given social situation. The other method asks respondents whether they would be willing to participate in a focus group. As hypothesized, the authors found that respondents asked to participate in the focus group were less will- ing to express opinions; also, their willingness was more highly related to independ- ent variables typically used in spiral of silence research, such as fear of isolation and perceptions of public opinion climates.

1811 Schwoch, J. Cold war telecommunications strategy and the question of German tele- vision. Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television 21(2):109-121, June 2001. BROADCASTING HISTORY. COLD WAR. GERMANY. TELECOMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE. TELEVISION. This essay analyzes American strategic visions regarding telecommunications and television growth in postwar occupied Germany. Most accounts dwell on the con- ditions needed before television—and all broadcasting—could return to German society as a shared vision of the occupying powers. This included a decentralized national system re-education, and fostering civic society, press freedom, and rejecting Third Reich propaganda. Although these goals were largely accomplished, particu- larly for what became West Germany, the actions surrounding these goals created conditions for another, unstated vision held only by the United States of America—a Political Communication 809 powerful presence in European telecommunications policy and significant control of frequencies and bandwidth in the European region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Another condition needing attention before television returned to Germany was the lack of American influence on European telecommunications and broadcasting. The return of broadcasting and television to Germany not only promoted decentralization and civic society, but also pursued a trajectory resulting in the United States enjoying, for the first time in the history of global electronic communications, a highly influen- tial position regarding European telecommunications coincident with the rise of the Cold War.

In this chapter, the author pushes the framing paradigm in a new direction: How do certain kinds of news media frames affect voters’ information processing, prefer- ences, and behavior? More specifically, do media frames emphasizing “values” or “rights” or “morals” lead to the employment of compensatory (vs. noncompensatory) decisions? Using a pilot survey, the author finds that value frames strongly influence issue interpretations but that they tend to have a weaker influence on turnout and vot- ing. The author also questions the normative bias against “rights talk” implicit in other preliminary analyses.

The author of this chapter asks the following question that unnerves professors who teach the introductory course on political communication each semester: What do we mean by framing? The author points to the different conceptions floating about the field, organizing these distinct perspectives in interesting and novel ways. More important, he offers an innovative “rational choice” perspective on framing and prim- ing that sheds light on key differences between those phenomena. The author also pro- poses using computer-based analysis to examine speech and media texts to assess frames that may strongly affect public policy formation that cannot be easily described via traditional content analysis.

1814 Tanner, E. Chilean conversations: Internet forum participants debate Augusto Pinochet’s detention. Journal of Communication 51(2):383-403, June 2001. CHILE. IMPRISONMENT. INTERNET USE. AUGUSTO PINOCHET. POLITICAL DISCOURSE. PUBLIC SPHERE. Chileans from around the world discussed the October 1998 arrest of ex-dictator Augusto Pinochet in London and debated the legacy of the military government over an Internet forum associated with the publication La Tercera. They argued over the 810 Communication Abstracts meanings of justice, reconciliation, forgiveness, truth, democracy, liberty, sover- eignty, and human rights. They debated events since the 1960s, examined the more recent transition to democracy, reviewed 19th-century history, and decried forms of colonialism. This study of 1,670 letters argues the online forum is a public space and identifies the following four characteristics of the space as it relates to public sphere theories: access, freedom of communication, structure of deliberation, and the public use of reason. Participants in forum debates generated both public opinion and collec- tive memories of the recent past, thus becoming part of the broader Chilean reconcili- ation process. The author ends the paper with conclusions about public sphere theo- ries in the Internet age.

In this chapter, the author introduces experimental evidence in his exploration of how group identities are primed by the media and candidates. Specifically, he focuses on how news media reports on crime can prime racial considerations of broader politi- cal issues. He also demonstrates that the power of sociological identities is not dead. In fact, media priming may have supplemented or even replaced the kind of interper- sonal communication initially documented by Berelson et al. and reconsidered earlier in this volume by Scheufele. Americans, it seems, often cannot see past the groups of which they are a part.

In this chapter, the author looks at campaign effects in the 2000 New Hampshire Republican primary and contends that it is time to exploit the “true” lessons of the minimal effects of media research to better understand election campaigns. In so doing, she focuses on the McCain-Bush battle in New Hampshire and examines what happens when voters are personally connected during the campaign. The author pro- poses reassessing these interpersonal contacts to craft a more accurate picture of why people vote as they do. Relying on surveys of New Hampshire voters, the author finds ample evidence that contact with candidates has had strong and predictable effects on personal impressions and vote choice.

POLITICAL COVERAGE. WATERGATE INCIDENT. This study compared coverage of Richard M. Nixon in Newsweek, Time, and U.S. News & WorldReport from Nixon’s resignation from the presidency in August 1974 until his funeral in April 1994. In a chi-square analysis of the direction of assertions Communication, Regulation, and the Law 811 about Nixon in the three newsweeklies, it was discovered that there was a highly sig- nificant difference in the direction of coverage among Newsweek, Time, and U.S. News & WorldReport . As a result, this analysis examined each of the newsweeklies’ coverage of Nixon on an individual basis rather than collectively. In all three newsweeklies, assertions about the former president were, for the most part, neutral. Newsweek, Time, and U.S. News & WorldReport each had more than 80% of neutral assertions during the 20-year period. What these findings suggest is the presence of objectivity in all three newsweeklies. There was an increase, in percentage, in the pos- itive assertions about Nixon in each of the newsweeklies over time from August 1974 until his funeral in 1994; however, the increase was not a steady increase.

1818 Dmitrieva, I. Y. State ownership of in primary law materials. Comm/Ent: Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Journal 23(1):81-119, Fall 2000. COPYRIGHT LAW. STATE GOVERNMENT. UNITED STATES. Although the Copyright Act of 1976 provides no protection for works of the United States government, no similar prohibition exists for works of state or local governments. Similarly, under principles of international copyright law, works of state governments in the United States are not considered to be within the unless explicitly provided by state statute or through statutory interpretation. Nevertheless, many states post their statutory and legislative materials on the Internet. This article demonstrates that over more than of the 50 states provide for state copy- right of official statutory compilations, court reports, or administrative compilations. The author reviews the common law and federal statutory law of copyright protection of state primary law materials, presents the results of the statutory research and judi- cial interpretations of specific provisions, and concludes with an analysis of the find- ings and a proposal for changes in the law.

U.S. SUPREME COURT. The author has collected the U.S. Supreme Court’s most important First Amend- ment decisions from 1919 to the present. Complete with a comprehensive introduc- tion, excerpts of public opinion from contemporary sources, and historical back- ground for each case, the book is a resource for those interested in the evolution of the Court’s understanding of the freedoms of speech, press, assembly, and petition. The author briefly introduces each case by describing its origins and reporting the deci- sions by the lower courts and then indicating why they are significant. A case may be important as a statement of legal doctrine. It may extend First Amendment protection to some new activity (such as commercial speech). It may show the Court reversing a decision made by Congress or the states, or even reversing one of its own rulings. Also, a case may be notable as a reflection of, or a statement about, its time. After the introduction of each case, the author presents an abridged form, the Court’s opinion, and any concurring or dissenting opinion that especially sheds light on disputed issues. 812 Communication Abstracts

1820 Flate, L. A. New technology clauses aren’t broad enough: why a new standard of in- terpretation must be adopted for Internet distribution. Comm/Ent: Hastings Commu- nications and Entertainment Law Journal 23(1):171-194, Fall 2000. COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. COPYRIGHT LAW. FILM. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. INTERNET USE. TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION. The distribution of films, specifically independent films, over the Internet often violates the distribution rights of multiterritorially distributed films created before Internet distribution was foreseeable. This article explores the history and develop- ment of Internet-distributed entertainment, what Internet distribution means to the independent film industry, how new technology clauses have been interpreted, why Internet distribution requires a fresh construction of these clauses, and the role tech- nology plays in preventing problems with Internet distribution. The author poses an equitable solution to make Internet distribution possible and lucrative for all parties under United States and international copyright laws.

1821 Friedman, S. J. Children and the World Wide Web: tool or trap? Lanham, MD: Uni- versity Press of America, 2000, 128 pp. $26.00 CHILDREN AND THE MEDIA. DEMOCRACY. FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION. INTERNET. INTERNET USE. WORLD WIDE WEB. Although freedom of expression is an absolute construct of our democracy, with serious implications for the Internet, a discussion of access and the publication of ideas are often associated with commercial imperatives. Although providing equal access to the technology of the Internet to all children is an essential component for democratizing the World Wide Web, commercial interests have a profound influence on children and will control and dominate a child’s use of the Web. Advertising plays an important role in the relationship between the Web and children, and, unfortu- nately, the welfare of children is subordinate to the commercial imperative. This book attempts to provide food for thought on these important issues by looking to the past for models on how to approach them and by raising questions about how we might use the Internet to improve rather than impoverish or contaminate our future. As a tool for advertising to children, the World Wide Web involves thinking in new and creative ways.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH. INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES. In this volume, the author explores the work of contemporary free speech critics and argues that, although at times these critics provide important lessons, many of their conclusions must be rejected. Moreover, the author suggests that we be wary of interdisciplinary approaches to free speech theory that, by their very assumptions and techniques, are a poor “fit” with existing free speech theory and doctrine. In this inves- tigation of diverse critiques of free speech theory and his rebuttal, the author provides an examination of First Amendment theory. In so doing, he establishes a new agenda Communication, Regulation, and the Law 813 for First Amendment theory scholarship that incorporates some of the critics’insights without abandoning the best aspects of the free speech tradition.

1823 Hayashi, M. Japanese insider trading law at the advent of the digital age: new chal- lenges raised by Internet and communication technology. Comm/Ent: Hastings Com- munications and Entertainment Law Journal 23(1):157-169, Fall 2000. COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. INTERNET USE. JAPAN. Although Japanese courts, specifically the Japanese Supreme Court in February of 1999, have taken recent steps to curtail insider trading in Japan, the spread of the Internet and new forms of communication technologies may make enforcement of insider trading regulations much more complex. Such activities have become increas- ingly difficult to detect, and there are many cases in the United States illustrating the possibility of abuse of the new technologies to promote securities crimes on the Internet. This article explores the impact of new technologies on the insider trading problem in Japan. The author presents the historical problems of insider trading in Japan, discusses Japanese insider trading law generally, and sets forth possible solu- tions for the challenges created by the current technologies.

1824 Hoefges, M. and Rivera-Sanchez, M. “Vice” advertising under the supreme court’s commercial speech doctrine: the shifting Central Hudson analysis. Comm/Ent: Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Journal 22(3/4):345-389, Spring/Summer 2000. COMMERCIAL SPEECH. FIRST AMENDMENT. U.S. SUPREME COURT. The extent to which the government should have the ability to regulate “vice” products and activities, such as tobacco, alcohol, and gaming, is extremely controver- sial. This article examines the commercial speech doctrine’s vice advertising cases from 1986 through 1999 and the Central Hudson analysis. Remarkably, by 1999, the U.S. Supreme Court appears to have reversed its position regarding vice advertising, and, in fact, it seems to have virtually eliminated the vice advertising distinction. As a result, it seems as though equal treatment is required under the First Amendment for all truthful, nondeceptive advertising for lawful products and services. The authors argue that the Supreme Court has elevated First Amendment protection for commer- cial speech to its highest level, approaching the protection afforded to political and social speech.

1825 Howell, A. E. Loki surfs for porn: an analysis of the discord the Internet may cause in obscenity law. Comm/Ent: Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Jour- nal 22(3/4):509-528, Spring/Summer 2000. FIRST AMENDMENT. INTERNET USE. LIBRARIES. OBSCENITY. PORNOGRAPHY. Libraries have been presented with the perplexing problem of whether they should be required, or whether they are even allowed, to filter users’access (specifically chil- dren’s access) to obscene and/or pornographic materials on the Internet. Such access could cause the public to accuse libraries of providing and tolerating obscenity. This article explores the potential chaos that open access to obscene and pornographic material on the Internet may bring to the definition of community standards and the 814 Communication Abstracts hoops through which modern e-pornographers must jump. The author discusses the basics of First Amendment law, analyzes the flaws in these doctrines as they apply to the Internet, and examines how the community can protect itself from e-pornographers and, alternatively, how online pornographers can protect themselves when the reality is that any person with a modem can access their materials.

1826 Jamal, A. State-building and media regime: censoring the emerging public sphere in Palestine. Gazette 63(2/3):263-282, April 2001. MASS MEDIA. NATION FORMATION. NATIONAL GOVERNANCE. PALESTINIANS. PUBLIC SPHERE. As a contribution to the debate regarding the relationship between the media and the state in transitory periods, this article examines the relationship between the Pales- tinian Authority (PA) and the Palestinian media. The Palestinians are experiencing major transitions at the level of the state, where a process of state building is at its height. Major debates are taking place regarding the characteristics of the emerging state. As an “interim government,” the policies of the PA will have a major impact on all social systems of Palestinian society. National as well as Islamic parties seek to dominate the emerging public spheres. Being part of civil society, the media are amid these sociopolitical processes. Examining the relationship between the PA and the media could enable us to locate the media on the spectrum between being an autono- mous publicsphere open for free argumentation and deliberation and being a mouth- piece of state imperatives, assisting in shaping public imagination, and being a mere tool of manipulation.

1827 Johnson, T. R. Information, oral arguments, and Supreme Court decision making. American Politics Research 29(4):331-351, July 2001. ARGUMENTATION. DECISION MAKING. ORAL COMMUNICATION. U.S. SUPREME COURT. Conventional wisdom in judicial politics is that oral arguments play little if any role in how the Supreme Court makes decisions. A primary reason for this view is that insufficient evidence exists to test this hypothesis. Thus, the author asks in this article, do U.S. Supreme Court justices use information from oral arguments that may help them make decisions as close as possible to their preferred goals? The author’s answer is straightforward: An investigation of the oral arguments and the Court’s majority opinions in a sample of cases from the Burger Court era shows that the Court gathers information during oral arguments and then uses this information when making sub- stantive policy choices. This finding has clear implications for the way in which schol- ars view the Supreme Court’s decision-making process because it suggests that the accepted view of how oral arguments fit into this process is far from accurate.

1828 Jones, P. The best of both worlds? Freedom of communication and “positive” broad- casting regulation. Media Culture & Society 23(3):385-386, May 2001. AUSTRALIA. BROADCASTING REGULATION. GREAT BRITAIN. UNITED STATES. Sylvia Harvey’s discussion of the different forms of “content” regulation of broad- casting in the United States and Britain is an especially useful step toward establishing Communication, Regulation, and the Law 815 a typology for the analysis of the relationship between the regulatory practices of sov- ereign nation-states and ostensibly “universal” norms, such as freedom of communi- cation. Harvey’s analysis seeks to account for the anomalous disparity between recent U.S. and British systems of content regulation for fairness and impartiality. These cases draw her to posit the coexistence of alternative “capitalist cultures” within an apparently globally triumphant capitalism. These cultures in turn derive from the dif- ferent—but still active and unpredictable—normative legacies of the bourgeois revo- lutions. This commentary briefly discusses and critically elaborates some implica- tions of this perspective. It then takes up Harvey’s suggestion of wider exemplary relevance by applying these implications to another case. However, this case is one that Harvey probably did not have in mind in the internationalizing reference noted in the beginning of this article, that is, the recent judicial establishment in Australia of an implied constitutional freedom of political communication.

1829 Kaplan, N. H. NBA v. Motorola: a legislative proposal favoring the nature of property, the survival or sports leagues, and the publicinterest. Comm/Ent: Hastings Commu - nications and Entertainment Law Journal 23(1):29-80, Fall 2000. COPYRIGHT LAW. DOCTRINE. FIRST AMENDMENT. MOTOROLA INCORPORATED. NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION. PROFESSIONAL SPORTS. In National Basketball Association v. Motorola, Inc., the Second Circuit found that the results of a professional sporting event may be appropriated by a commercial page company and a commercial online service without infringing on any right of the leagues or the teams. In addition, the court said that a state could not legislate to pro- tect facts, which remain exempt from federal copyright protection, unless those facts can be considered to be “hot news.” This paper suggests that the circuit court’s holding in this case is out of sync with the economic world within which the sports industry operates and that it fundamentally threatens the publicinterest in the continuingoper- ation and success of professional sports leagues. The author examines the Motorola case in detail; explores the doctrinal and policy views surrounding copyright law, the First Amendment, and the Fair Use Doctrine as well as antitrust laws; and proposes federal statutory provisions in regard to the Second Circuit’s holding.

TELECOMMUNICATIONS REGULATIONS. Incentive regulation for some of the services provided by local exchange carriers in the U.S. telecommunications industry is based on price caps. Under price caps, a regulated firm’s average real prices for services it provides are required to fall by a specified percentage each year. This percentage is known as the X-factor. An impor- tant component of the X-factor is productivity change for local exchange carriers pro- viding interstate access service. Two separate approaches to measuring the change in productivity are considered. The total factor productivity approach, which is used in regulatory proceedings in the telecommunications industry, quantifies the change in output less the change in input and classified it as the measure of productivity growth. There are a number of limitations with this approach. An alternative is proposed—the hybrid cost proxy model (HCPM)—which is an engineering process model that does 816 Communication Abstracts not possess the limitations of the total factor productivity approach. The model com- bines engineering principles of design for the local loop, switching, and interoffice networks with economic principles of cost minimization. The two separate approaches are empirically implemented for Bell Atlantic, Inc. for the time period from 1985 to 1997. The results suggest that the realized productivity growth as mea- sured by the total factor productivity approach is somewhat less than what would have been achieved had the network been optimally configured as indicated by the HCPM approach.

TELECOMMUNICATIONS POLICY. In an attempt to resolve disputes between domain name registrants and trademark holders in various countries, the Internet Corporation for Assignment of Names and Numbers (ICANN) has implemented a policy under which complaints can be lodged and an objective inquiry into the facts for parties can be assessed. This article attempts to examine cases filed to date to determine whether the ICANN Policy and Rules are being effectively used for their intended purpose. The author explores the features of a domain name, the history of the Internet, and how the decision to privatize the admin- istration of domain names was made. Also examined are recommendations made by the World Intellectual Property Organization regarding what they consider to be the best way of handling domain name disputes, the implementation of ICANN, and the creation of the dispute resolution process. Included in this article is an assessment of whether the ICANN process provides a fair and objective forum in which both parties can be heard.

1833 McPherson, E. F. The talent agencies act: does one year really mean one year? Comm/Ent: Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Journal 22(3/4):441-451, Spring/Summer 2000. CALIFORNIA. ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRIES. STATUTES OF LIMITATION. TALENT AGENCIES. The issue of whether the 1-year statute of limitations period mandated by Califor- nia’s Talent Agencies Act really means 1 year has recently been considered by the California Court of Appeal. In Park v. The Deftones, the court held that the 1-year lim- itations period is revived when a manager sues an artist. The same court, in Styne v. Stevens, held that although a lawsuit by a manager revived the statute of limitations, it revived it only for an additional 1-year period. This paper explores the case of Styne, the scope of the Talent Agencies Act, and the jurisdiction of the court to decide issues of first impression under the Act as well as the scope and ramifications of the Styne case. Interestingly, as of the publication of this article, the California Supreme Court has granted review in the Styne case in an attempt to clarify the law.

FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. PUBLIC JOURNALISM. This volume provides a historical, philosophical, and practical critique of public journalism, a movement that gained momentum in the journalism profession through- out the 1990s. The authors examine the philosophical roots of public journal- ism—also referred to as civic journalism—and challenge its methodology and grounding in neoliberal constructs, tracing its origins in early philosophy to the cur- rent newsroom policies and practices that conflict with traditional constructs in liber- tarian press theory. With its focus on public journalism, the volume highlights indica- tions that this new paradigm for journalistic practice is leading to a decrease in the press’s power and freedom. This book also postulates that, with institutionalized jour- nalism fading, world journalism is moving toward a new construct—one of order and social harmony, away from the traditional idea of press freedom.

MEDIA REFORM. SLOVAKIA. TAIWAN. This article examines general patterns of the politics of media reform in Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and Taiwan, all societies transitioning to democracy. Although the media are becoming more free and independent in each, there remain significant political constraints on journalism in all four countries. Using arguments from organizational analysis, the author contends that the persistence of institutional connection between the media and the government, state, and political parties has left 818 Communication Abstracts the media in a politically dependent position. This dependence is manipulated by poli- ticians across the political spectrum in an effort to sustain electoral success and politi- cal authority. The prevalence of this pattern in Taiwan indicates that the so-called Leninist legacy is not always the primary inhibitor of greater liberalization. The author contends that the difficulties in all four countries indicate that rebuilding old institutions differs from creating new democratic institutions.

Communication Yearbook 25. Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2001, pp. 45-77. $125.00/$70.00 COMMUNICATION POLICY. FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION. POLICY MAKING. Recent developments in communications policy have increased the need for a thorough understanding of the behavior of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the dynamics of the communications policy-making process. This theoret- ical and methodological review and critique of the literature devoted to FCC behavior and communications policy making outlines the diversity of theoretical approaches to the FCC that have evolved over time and the specific processes by which the FCC can be influenced by outside stakeholders. This review concludes that there have been too few efforts to subject these diverse theoretical perspectives to inclusive analyses, in which competing theories of regulatory behavior are tested simultaneously. In addi- tion, researchers have focused primarily on explaining past FCC actions, making rela- tively few efforts to develop and test predictive theories of FCC behavior. In address- ing these gaps in the literature, future research should (1) explore more content- specific models of FCC behavior, (2) focus on issue-type distinctions, and (3) address the possibility that different types of FCC behavior may demonstrate different charac- teristics. Attention to these areas may help to reconcile the diversity of theories of FCC behavior that have received empirical support.

Comm/Ent: Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Jour- nal 22(3/4):547-563, Spring/Summer 2000. CALIFORNIA. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. MEDIA LAW. PHOTOGRAPHY. PHOTOJOURNALISTS. Recent attempts by the California legislature to prevent abuses by the paparazzi have spotlighted the conflict between freedom of the press, which is considered essential to the survival of a democratic society, and the personal right of privacy, vio- lations of which have proven harmful. This article compares California’s anti-paparazzi law with proposed federal legislation. The author suggests an appro- priate course of action for promoting the most effective form of federal legislation on the issue. The author concludes that California’s approach to problems with the paparazzi is better tailored to the task of curbing aggressive paparazzi tactics than its federal counterpart. In addition, the California statute minimizes restrictions on free- dom of the press. This approach should be considered by Congress and other states trying to find a solution to the problem.

Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, 1999, 257 pp. $16.95 FREEDOM OF SPEECH. MASS MEDIA. PUBLIC OPINION. STEREOTYPES ON THE MEDIA. This book is about expectations, the hopelessly unrealistic expectations we have for our news media and the media’s equally vain desire to be well regarded at the same time as they slip away from their own traditional notions of publicservice.It is a book about what each player contributes to a deteriorating, destructive relationship that is endangering our nation and growing more ugly and tendentious. The book is also about how the public’s anger toward the media is being played out in the nation’s courts, in which judge after judge is limiting the public’s right to receive information, all in the name of controlling the “profiteering” news media, to use the adjective favored by federal judge Susan Webber Wright in a 1998 decision involving the Paula Jones sexual harassment. The author uses a 20-year retrospective that explores the root causes of our growing hostility toward the media and warns that we are killing one of our most treasured resources—the Fourth Estate.

Comm/Ent: Hastings Communications and Entertain- ment Law Journal 23(1):1-27, Fall 2000. COPYRIGHT LAW. DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT. DIGITAL TRANSMISSION. Digital technology and innovation acutely impact copyright law. This article describes the delicate balance between incentives for authors and access to creative works under copyright policy and demonstrates how modern trends and congressio- nal action pose a threat to that balance. The author suggests that the anticircumvention provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) are unconstitutional and that they threaten to undermine the fundamental economic justifications of copy- right law. The author concludes that the anticircumvention measures are also poor public policy because the threat they pose to competition and innovation are contrary to the expanding technological marketplace.

People may use information from a variety of sources in constructing their judg- ments of crime risk, including direct experience, word of mouth, and the mass media. A total of 158 respondents provided three estimates of risk of violent crime: societal crime risk, personal crime risk to themselves in their own neighborhood, and personal crime risk to themselves in New York City. Respondents’ level of television viewing was related to their estimates of societal crime risk and to their estimate of personal crime risk in New York City, but not to their estimates of personal crime risk in their own neighborhood. This pattern of results was qualified by a significant interaction; all three risk estimates were related to respondents’ level of television viewing only for those with high direct experience with crime, results that are consistent with 820 Communication Abstracts

Gerner’s concept of resonance. The implications for the concept of interpersonal impact and Gerner et al.’s concepts of cultivation and mainstreaming are also discussed.

WORLD INTERNET PROVIDERS ORGANIZATION. WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION. Copyright owners have become increasingly concerned with online copyright infringement by Internet service providers (ISPs). As a result, lawmakers have attempted to determine the most appropriate mechanism by which to impose third-party liability on these ISPs. The Internet makes it extremely difficult to identify online copyright infringement in general, and, unfortunately, the task becomes even more difficult in the international context. The authors suggest that a practical solu- tion to the problem might include creating international procedural guidelines, which would provide copyright owners with viable means to protect their rights. The authors compare international standards for ISP liability for third-party copyright infringe- ment and propose international guidelines to create an international notice and take-down standards for all ISPs.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. Since the early 1990s, Brazilian information technology (IT) policy has changed substantially from greenhouse protectionism in selected segments of the market to a more liberal regime. The authors analyze the impact of liberalization on IT equipment production, diffusion, employment, and foreign trade. There were both benefits and setbacks, depending on the aspect analyzed. Users benefited from greater access to imported equipment, which could eventually contribute to productivity growth in the overall economy. On the negative side, there was a loss of local linkages with internal sources of components, technology, and employment. The article concludes that the future of the Brazilian IT industry does not seem to be in commodity hardware pro- duction. Rather, it lies in design- and engineering-intensive applications. Such “pro- duction close to use” can spur domestic use as well as create business opportunities for domestically owned companies in markets not dominated by foreign multinationals.

1843 Ward, D. The democratic deficit and European union communication policy: an eval- uation of the commission’s approach to broadcasting. Javnost: The Public 8(1):75-93, April 2001. BROADCASTING POLICY. DEMOCRACY. DEMOCRATIC DEFICIT. EUROPEAN UNION. This article evaluates European Union broadcasting policy in the context of the democratic deficit. It argues that it is essential to understand the democratic deficit in terms of communicative action, but this entails the question of media policy, and spe- cifically broadcasting, as one of the dominant mediums in which citizens participate in publiclife. In outlining the basicnature of the European Commission’s approachto broadcasting, the work employs the concepts of internal and external pluralism heu- ristically. The author applies these two categories to the commission’s decisions on state aid and competition policy to assess how European Union media policy hangs together to form a comprehensive approach to media regulation. It challenges what has become the orthodoxy in reviews of European audiovisual policy and argues that the commission has adopted a mature sense of the importance of broadcasting in the democratic process. At the same time, however, the idea that the democratic deficit can be fruitfully approached through broadcasting initiatives is undermined due to the restricted access the commission has to the broadcasting sector in the regulatory sphere, where the member states retain power.

1844 Wharton, M. A. Pornography and the international Internet: Internet content regula- tions in Australia and the United States. Comm/Ent: Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Journal 23(1):121-156, Fall 2000. AUSTRALIA. CROSS-NATIONAL COMPARISON. INTERNET REGULATIONS. ONLINE USE. PORNOGRAPHY. UNITED STATES. In response to a vast concern about the widespread availability of pornographic materials on the Internet, the United States legislature passed the Communication Decency Act of 1996. Just prior to this legislation, the Australian government began investigating possible regulatory schemes for online content, culminating in the Broadcasting Services Amendment of 1999, which attempted to address the presence of pornographic materials on the Internet. The article discusses, compares, and ana- lyzes the American and Australian systems of content regulation on the Internet and the effect that such legislation has had on content hosts. The author concludes that the Australian Internet content regulation will be, at best, difficult to enforce. Much depends on the effectiveness of filters and the cooperation of Australian Internet ser- vice providers. The U.S. Communication Decency Act of 1996 was struck down and cannot be enforced because it violates the First Amendment.

1845 Bonito, J. A. An information-processing approach to participation in small groups. Communication Research 28(3):275-303, June 2001. GROUP BEHAVIOR. GROUP COMMUNICATION. GROUP PROCESSES. The author examines the effect of quality and commonality of information, in addition to the influence of attitudes toward group work, on participation in small 822 Communication Abstracts groups. Prior to discussion, participants were asked individually to write a psycholog- ical profile of a target person and to respond to a series of questions about working in groups. Profiles were coded for quantity and commonality of information. Partici- pants were then assigned to three-person groups and asked to develop a consensus profile of the same target person. Discussions were coded for substantive and nonsubstantive contributions. Results indicated a positive actor effect for information quantity on substantive contributions as well as positive actor and partner effects for commonality of information on both substantive and nonsubstantive participation. The attitudinal variables marginally affected participation. Discussion focuses on information pooling and stereotypes, and it argues for a dynamicmodel of informa - tion use and storage as an area of future research.

Viewing their analysis through Goffman’s lens, they argue that procedures codify moral standards, thereby offering employees specific means by which they can enact dramaturgical discipline. In their discussion, they suggest several ways in which their case study reinforces and expands Goffman’s original concepts. Their findings are (1) procedures can function as codified moral standards within the organizational set- ting, (2) procedures can serve as the basis for employee enactment of dramaturgical discipline, (3) the use of databases in collecting and storing information offers a new wrinkle to impression management theory, and (4) the use of incentives to pacify guests expands the defensive practices available to those engaging in impression management.

1847 Duncker, E. Symbolic communication in multidisciplinary cooperations. Science, Technology, & Human Values 26(3):349-386, Summer 2001. COMMUNICATION. INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES. SYMBOLISM. With the advent of strategic science, multidisciplinary and cross-institutional research is more and more becoming the rule. The problems encountered by such multidisciplinary research and development cooperations are highly varied. They derive from multiple differences in the backgrounds of the participants and are often perceived as cultural gaps that need to be bridged for cooperation. The main argument of the article is that multidisciplinary collaborations have mechanisms at their dis- posal to cooperate despite multiple problems counteracting such as cooperation. Since symbolic communication is the primary medium of articulation across sites, this article focuses on how symbolic communication enables cooperation across sites without a deep comprehension of each other’s work. Multidisciplinary cooperations start out with few shared symbolic resources, but as the cooperation continued, they Organizational Communication 823 may develop communicative boundary-transcending objects such as active and pas- sive dictionaries and hybrid repertoires.

1848 Lee, J. Leader-member exchange, perceived organizational justice, and cooperative communication. Management Communication Quarterly 14(4):574-589, May 2001. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. ORGANIZATIONAL JUSTICE. PERCEPTION. This study examined the extent to which the quality of leader-member exchanges (LMXs) affected perceptions of distributive and procedural organizational justice, and the extent to which the perceptions of organizational justice influenced coopera- tive communication in the work group. Findings indicated that subordinates in low-quality LMXs perceived less distributive and procedural fairness than their peers in high-quality LMXs. Furthermore, as subordinates perceived greater fairness in dis- tributive outcomes and procedures, they tended to believe that communication in the work group was more cooperative.

1849 Mayer-Guell, A. M. Business-to-business electronic commerce: the new economy’s challenge to traditional American business values. Management Communication Quarterly 14(4):644-652, May 2001. BUSINESS COMMUNICATION. ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. Business-to-business (B2B) electronic commerce is changing organizational structures, employee communication processes, and the relationships created among businesses. To be effective participants in the new economy created by B2B e-com- merce, businesses must change their ways of operating to become responsive to quickly changing market and customer demands and integrated into extensive alli- ances to collaborate with other organizations across their value chains. Previous research has shown that for a new organizational concept or model like B2B to reach its full potential, it must be consistent with the underlying ideology of an organization, including the values of that organization’s national culture. Therefore, as with any other new organizational concept, one must consider issues of cultural fit for B2B e-commerce. Does the B2B model coincide with the cultural values of the organiza- tions that will be employing it? Because a large portion of B2B e-commerce is occur- ring in the United States at present, this article examines the cultural components of the changes necessitated by the B2B model and whether these components are consis- tent with those of the dominant business culture in the United States.

CRISIS RESPONSE STRATEGIES. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. SHIPWRECKS. U.S. COAST GUARD. On a stormy December 1997 night in Charleston Harbor, Charleston, SC, four lives were lost when the sailing vessel Morning Dew crashed into a jetty near the 824 Communication Abstracts entrance to the city’s harbor. At first, authorities were at a loss to explain what hap- pened to the boat. However, it was soon revealed that the vessel had radioed the Coast Guard station in Charleston, yet received no assistance. The Coast Guard soon found itself defending its actions of that night, and was accused of covering up evidence of the Morning Dew’s Mayday call. By not communicating with the media and public, the Coast Guard’s actions brought into question its Search and Rescue capabilities. Coast Guard errors in dealing with this crisis are examined, and observations about crisis communication, in general, are discussed.

1851 McKie, D. E-scaping management communication: old discourses, new economy, and new economies. Management Communication Quarterly 14(4):637-643, May 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. TEXTUAL ANALYSIS. Management communication as a practice constructs the new economy verbally and visually. Management communication as a discipline did not take The Road Ahead, missed the Information Superhighway ramp, failed to see business at the speed of light, and still lags behind Fast Companies. In seeking to align discipline and practice, this article examines key electronic business texts to argue that the main new economy representations cluster around images—especially directionless speed, roads, and transport—common to early modernity. Viewing discourse as a mode of action as well as representation, the author argues that these images help constrain future development to a new economy that is shaped largely by computer mediations and dot.com predictions, rather than new economies that encourage scenarios more inclusive of other possibilities.

1852 Morgan, J. M. Are we “out of the box” yet? A case study and critique of managerial metaphors for change. Communication Studies 52(1):85-102, Spring 2001. ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE. METAPHOR. A cultural-critical approach is used to explore dominant and alternative ideologies of change reflected in the metaphors of a retail-based management staff. The case study reveals the managers as change agents were well versed in the corporate call to “get out of the box,” yet reflected a less transformational vision of change in their own discourse. Traveling metaphors used by the store-level managers indicated a process orientation to change, but one that severely limited discussion about other possible routes toward the desired end. Suppressed alternative metaphors speaking to the per- sonal losses and frustrations associated with change are exposed and validated in this analysis. Implications for research and practice are discussed. Organizational Communication 825

Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2001, pp. 237-269. $125.00/$70.00 COMMUNICATION. ETHNIC DIFFERENCES. GROUP COMMUNICATION. RESEARCH TRENDS. WORK GROUPS. The purpose of this study is to provide a narrative literature review to synthesize the research investigating the role of communication in culturally diverse work groups. A review of the extant literature revealed three predominant roles of commu- nication. They are the following: (1) communication as affected by cultural and con- textual factors; (2) communication as affecting group outcomes; and (3) communica- tion as a constitutive element for group culture. The research for each role is reviewed and summarized to identify what the authors do and do not know about communica- tion in culturally diverse work groups. The authors conclude the essay by identifying five unanswered questions to guide future research. Those five questions are the fol- lowing: What are the important communicative processes in culturally diverse groups: Are all culturally diverse groups alike? How do cultural and contextual fac- tors relate to each other in their influence on communication in culturally diverse work groups? How does communication function to create inclusive and divisive groups? and What methods should be utilized to further this line of research?

1854 Scheuer, J. Recontextualization and communicative styles in job interviews. Dis- course Studies 3(2):223-248, May 2001. COMMUNICATION STYLES. DENMARK. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. JOB INTERVIEWS. This article presents, discusses, and analyzes data from a Danish empirical study of authentic job interviews. Drawing on critical discourse analysis and sociolinguistics, as well as other fields, the author explores the relationship between success in job interviews and communicative style. The recontextualization of lifeworld resources is approached through both qualitative and quantitative analyses of spoken language. The author demonstrates that certain communicative styles and recontextualizations formed by a combination of lifeworld and job-related perspec- tives are more successful in job interviews. On the basis of sociolinguistic evidence, the author argues that these styles and recontextualizations are products of general processes of socialization rather than products of formal education.

1855 Sias, P. M. and Wyers, T. D. Employee uncertainty and information-seeking in newly formed expansion organizations. Management Communication Quarterly 14(4):549-573, May 2001. EMPLOYEE ANXIETY. INFORMATION SEEKING. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT. Longitudinal data regarding uncertainty and information-seeking were obtained from employees in several newly formed expansion organizations (NFEOs). Results indicate that employees were most uncertain about task requirements and the viability of the new organization—a previously unidentified type of employee uncertainty. NFEO employees relied most frequently on their supervisors and their prior work experience for all types of information. Perceptions of the social costs of seeking 826 Communication Abstracts information were low throughout the study but increased significantly over time. Results indicate that information-seeking from coworkers was influenced primarily by source credibility in the early period of employment and by social cost perceptions in the later period of employment.

1856 Taylor, J. R. The “rational” organization reconsidered: an exploration of some of the organizational implications of self-organizing. Communication Theory 11(2):137-177, May 2001. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. RATIONALITY. SELF-ORGANIZATION. This paper argues for an enlargement of our conception of rationality to include forms of reasoning, intelligence, and cognition that are communicatively, rather than discursively, based. To defend the thesis that understanding emerges in the collective interactive processes of practically situated conversation, as well as in individual thought, this paper examines the theoretical literature devoted to self-organizing sys- tems and the empirical literature that describes how distributed intelligence is devel- oped by groups in materially embedded contexts of work. It then explores the phe- nomenon of emergence of organization as an actor, capable of expressing an intention and participating in a dialogue involving other organizations. It explains this phenom- enon of the emerging organizational self as a logical implication of the theory of self-organizing, which predicates “self-ness” as an effect of the coupling of an autopoieticsystem to an observer. Whereas this has tended to be interpreted in intersubjective contexts of communication, it can also be applied to organizational communication. Implications of such a revision of perspectives are briefly consid- ered, including a critique of current implications of dialogics.

ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. KNOWLEDGE. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. This article explores the fusion of e-commerce and knowledge management. Spe- cifically, the authors argue that knowledge-commerce, or k-commerce, is a likely out- come of that confluence with potentially enabling and constraining effects for organi- zations, the knowledge they produce, and the roles and identities of employees. The authors begin by briefly examining dystopian and utopian narratives that tend to anchor discourse about the use of technology to manage knowledge. Because actual outcomes tend to fall between such extremes, the authors conclude that awareness and ethical standards are the main means by which k-commerce technology can be steered away from harmful outcomes. Toward that end, they present a model establishing the transparent-opaque, and inclusive-exclusive dimensions, as the primary ethical con- siderations for assessing k-commerce practices.

1858 Ulmer, R. R. Effective crisis management through established stakeholder relation- ships: Malden Mills as a case study. Management Communication Quarterly 14(4):590-614, May 2001. CRISIS COMMUNICATION. CRISIS MANAGEMENT. CRISIS RESPONSE STRATEGIES. FIREFIGHTING. LAWRENCE, MA. MALDEN MILLS. STAKE HOLDERS. This article investigates the postcrisis communication of Aaron Feuerstein, chief executive officer of Malden Mills, after a fire destroyed his textile mill. On Decem- ber 11, 1995, the plant, located in Lawrence, MA., erupted into flames, injuring 36 workers. The blaze, later classified as an industrial accident, destroyed three critical manufacturing buildings and threatened to put 3,000 employees in a small manufac- turing town out of work. Feuerstein responded quickly and was able to resolve the cri- sis, despite the considerable damage to his organization. It explains how leadership communication prior to a crisis has an impact on postcrisis communication. Stake- holder theory is used to ground the analysis and to provide direction in developing practical implications for precrisis and postcrisis communication. The analysis dem- onstrates the importance of establishing strong communication channels and positive value positions with stakeholders well before crises erupt.

SCIENCE COMMUNICATION. SCIENCE LIBRARIES. SCIENTISTS. WORLD WIDE WEB. Science in the 20th century became divided into specialized branches and become closed off within the specialist community. To bring science back into Japanese soci- ety, the authors developed the Scientist Library as an attempt to transmit the personal- ity and research of individual scientists. Their goal was to show the present state of science as a whole. The Scientist Library features 88 biologists, and has been accessi- ble to the publicon the World Wide Web and on CD-ROM since1997. Their evalua - tion indicated that showing the “scientist as a person” is effective as a tool for commu- nication of science. They also found that the Scientist Library allows scientists to express themselves.

ADVERTISING CONTENT. ADVERTISING EFFECTS. RACIAL DIFFERENCES. The researcher digitally manipulated the race of characters in advertisements and the number of race-specific cultural cues in the advertisements while maintaining all other visual features of the advertisements. A total of 349 black, white, Hispanic, and 828 Communication Abstracts

Asian-American adolescents evaluated black character or white character advertise- ments based on the following: (1) perceived similarity to the characters in the adver- tisements; (2) identification with the characters in the advertisements; (3) belief that the advertisements were intended for them; and (4) overall rating of the advertise- ments. The findings indicate that, overall, white, black, Hispanic, and Asian Ameri- can adolescents respond more favorably to black character advertisements than they do to white character advertisements.

ADVERTISING EFFECTS. ADVERTISING MESSAGES. ADVERTISING RESEARCH. CONSUMER STUDIES. FADS. This book attempts to explain how advertising works, how advertising has affected American society and culture, and how to analyze and interpret advertisements and commercials in more interesting and profound ways. The volume provides a multifac- eted study of advertising that demonstrates its importance for the economy, politics, social life, and individual identities. The author employs cultural, communications, and social theory to illuminate the multiple functions of advertising in today’s con- sumer culture. The book contains the following nine chapters: Advertising in Ameri- can Society; Consumer Cultures; Advertising and the Communication Process; Run- ning it Up a Flagpole to See if Anyone Salutes; Sexuality and Advertising; Political Advertising; The Marketing Society; Analyzing Print Advertisements; and Ana- lyzing Television Commercials.

NATIONAL IDENTITY. SEMIOTICS. TELEVISION ADVERTISING. This article is concerned with how ethnic harmony, national identity, and political ideology are delivered, then disrupted by advertising, consumption, and a globalizing world. Working with a sample of more than 250 television commercials culled from the (then) three commercial networks of Malaysia in 1997, the author shows how ads are used by government as an intentional tool to manage the multiethnic, stratified social relations that comprise Malaysia society. This, in turn, produces the following three dilemmas: (1) potentially greater racial segmentation where the government was seeking to eliminate it entirely, (2) the nation being united under the traditions and beliefs of only one (the dominant) ethnicgroup, and (3) an attempt to repudiate the very exo-cultural system that is serving to remediate these perceived dysfunctions. In a concluding section, the author introduces the concept of “semiotic literacy” to argue that ideological domination by the Malaysian government is possible given the rela- tively low level of symbolicfluencyheld by the consumersof television advertising. However, such control will be increasingly difficult to maintain as the audience becomes more symbolically fluent, in part because of the increasing number of signs entering the context from an increasing number of external sources.

PROFESSIONAL ETHICS. PUBLIC RELATIONS. Advocacy is something that is always around us, whether the subject of advocacy is drunk driving (don’t do it), dishwashing soap (use this brand), war propaganda (help us defeat the Axis!), or the Yellow Pages (use them). Throughout the 20th cen- tury, the tools of advocacy have been reformed and refined at the hands of government information bureaus and by some of the most brilliant “creatives” in the advertising industry. This volume reveals the world of those people and agencies who create pub- lic awareness about products, ideas, services, or causes. Spending years in govern- ment archives and the libraries and offices of Madison Avenue, the authors offer a his- tory of the apparatus of advocacy—how its methods and mindset were developed and some of the consequences of the rise of advocacy into a national profession practiced by “technicians of moral outrage” such as Al Sharpton and Rush Limbaugh.

1864 Li, S.-C. S. and Chiang, C.-C. Marketing competition and programming diversity: a study of the TV market in Taiwan. Journal of Media Economics 14(2):105-129, 2001. ADVERTISING. ECONOMIC COMPETITION. MARKETING. SATELLITE TELEVISION. TAIWAN. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. This article investigates the issue of the relation between market competition and programming diversity in Taiwan’s television market. For more than 20 years, Tai- wan’s television market had an oligopolisticstructurewith three networks dominating the market. With the popularity of satellite television during the 1990s, oligopoly rap- idly ended. This study examines how programming diversity was affected by the changing television market structure in Taiwan. Programming diversity was mea- sured by three methods using program data from the three networks operating in Tai- wan—vertical programming diversity, horizontal programming diversity, and prime-time programming strategies. The results indicate a negative relation between market competition and programming diversity. Although the market competition increased from 1986 to 1996, this study discovered that the degree of programming diversity was reduced year by year.

ADVERTISING TECHNIQUES. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISCOURSE STRATEGIES. LANGUAGE USE. Speakers/writers choose one from among several available referring expressions to refer to an entity, depending on the context. The question then is “What are the criti- cal factors that motivate them to prefer one expression to another in a given discourse context?” There have been numerous attempts to provide an answer to this question, all of which fall under the heading of the study of demonstrative reference. This study takes the position that “focus” is the most critical factor in the speaker’s choice of demonstrative reference and tests this claim against the data from a particular genre (i.e., written advertisements). As is shown in the paper, the patterns of demonstrative 830 Communication Abstracts reference are very different in different discourse types (e.g., speech writing or written advertisements). One purpose of this study is to show that the focus-based approach is superior to other approaches in explaining why the use of the demonstrative differs by discourse type. A second purpose of this study is to describe how demonstrative usage is functionally motivated; that is, certain kinds of demonstrative reference to help advertisers achieve specific functional goals.

MASS MEDIA

1866 Ahlkvist, J. A. Programming philosophies and the rationalization of musicradio. Me - dia Culture & Society 23(3):339-358, May 2001. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS. MUSIC RADIO. RADIO PROGRAMMING. Deregulation and ownership concentration have been accompanied by increased rationalization of programming strategies in commercial music radio in many indus- trialized nations. However, understanding of the impact of these trends on music pro- gramming is incomplete because little research has examined music radio’s culture of production. This article addresses this deficit by exploring the knowledge frameworks that radio programmers draw on to transform records into music programming. Inter- views with musicprogrammers working at radio stations in the United States reveal fundamental variation in how culture production is managed in this industry. The author accounts for this variation by distinguishing four programming philosophies that guide and legitimate programmers’ choice of programming strategies. Finally, the author describes the integration of these philosophies into programmers’ knowl- edge frameworks by considering their impact on music programming, and the struc- tural factors that accommodate and constrain each philosophy.

TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. TELEVISION USE. For centuries, diasporic communities have tried to keep their cultural identity close by. Globalization adds new dimensions to that phenomenon, and as a result of it new research fields and theoretical proposals are being constructed. One of the ele- ments that contributes to the new dimension of the phenomenon is the possibility to access to the media of the place of origin via satellite, Internet and in other ways. In order to observe this phenomenon, the authors observed how immigrants of Maghreb in Bilbao use satellite television, especially Arabic language television. The authors found that the use of this medium gives them the possibility of keeping in touch with their homeland. Mass Media 831

1868 Bailey, S. “Professional television”: three (super) texts and a (super)genre. The Velvet Light Trap 47:45-61, Spring 2001. NARRATIVE ANALYSIS. PRIME-TIME TELEVISION. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. TEXTUAL ANALYSIS. On recent television seasons, the prime-time schedules of the major networks have included an increasing number of programs that might be termed professional dra- mas. In addition to their popularity, all these shows share a common narrative focus on the vocational and personal lives of legal and medical professionals, with a particular emphasis on the complex, often ambiguous ethical terrain the central characters must navigate. In this essay, the author examines the dynamics of the professional drama, and considers its recent emergence as a kind of (super)genre, one that encapsulates a set of discourses beyond those directly associated with the television text itself. To do this, the author offers an analysis of three (super)texts drawn from the current hit ER and its 1980s ancestors L.A. Law and thirtysomething, which offer particularly rich examples of the professional (super)genre. Before moving to this analysis, the author reflects briefly on the origins of this type of television and offers a stronger definition of the (super)genre itself.

SATELLITE TELEVISION. WOMEN. This article describes the flawed attempts of successive governments in Pakistan to respond to the proliferation of satellite television during the 1990s. The popularity of Indian programming on satellite television is particularly galling, since it chal- lenges the notion of a distinct Islamic identity in the subcontinent—the very ethos of Pakistan’s existence. In spite of this challenge, neither the Nawaz Sharif nor Benazir Bhutto administrations were willing to allow news and current affairs on the national broadcaster to move away from their traditional role as the prime promotional vehicle for the government of the day. The availability of permissive programming of satellite television has heightened the sensitivities of conservative Islamic organizations, lead- ing to a backlash against liberal experiments in the depiction of women and gender issues on national television under the Benazir Bhutto government, and a deeply con- servative broadcasting agenda under the Nawaz Sharif government.

1870 Black, D. Internet radio: a case study in medium specificity. Media Culture & Society 23(3):397-408, May 2001. CASE STUDIES. COMMUNICATION THEORY. INTERNET RADIO. This commentary approaches Internet radio as a case study, in pursuit of some broader insights into matters of medium specificity and determination. In the course of this undertaking, the article exhibits a dramatic range of levels of magnification, from close examination of a small number of contemporary trade documents to some sweeping statements about the processes by which media establish specificity and identity. This approach, the author claims, enhances the study at both ends of the spec- trum of detail. Concrete remarks on specific documents and events give a good return on time invested when it comes to testing and/or illustrating how fruitfully the theory 832 Communication Abstracts might play out. Similarly, a topiclike Internet radio might lend itself to voluminous documentation and profiling in its most positivist details; but such documentation is of limited value. For one thing, Internet radio is a moving target—any lengthy catalog of how many stations there are, for example, is doomed to go out of date quickly. Therefore, detailed observations about the medium’s current state and current arti- facts are best situated in a broader theoretical context, in the hope that even if the details change, the purpose the observations serve will perhaps endure.

1871 Bracken, C. and Lombard, M. Uses and gratifications: a classic methodology revis- ited. New Jersey Journal of Communication 9(1):103-116, Spring 2001. COLLEGE STUDENTS. MASS MEDIA. RESEARCH TECHNIQUES. USES AND GRATIFICATIONS. This paper describes the results of a uses and gratifications survey, based on the methodology of Katz, Gurevitch, and Haas (1973) that examined the extent to which different media fulfill a variety of human needs. The authors suggest that the Katz, et al. (1973) method should be revisited when investigating uses and gratifications across several media. The paper outlines the uses and gratifications approach, describes the adapted survey, and presents the results of data collected over four years from 241 respondents at a large urban American university. The authors conclude that this study provides evidence of the uses and gratifications of college-age respondents regarding their media use. Overall, the respondents reported that they rely on uses and gratifications to fulfill basic human needs but that the media are only moderately help- ful in accomplishing this. Particularly, they reported that although they are dependent on the media (especially television and newspapers) for information regarding state and society, they do not always trust what they see/hear/read in the media. The results indicate that, contrary to popular belief, young adults have not abandoned the newspa- pers, at least for the surveillance function.

RHETORICAL ANALYSIS. ROAD RUNNER. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. TELEVISION VIOLENCE. Recent studies have suggested the need to broaden our approaches to violence in children’s programming. This paper uses the violence of The RoadRunner cartoon series as a starting point for a mythico-rhetorical analysis of the message system con- tained in the cartoon. It explores how the animated short re-enacts the myth of Sisy- phus in the context of the post-World War II technological boom in the United States. Technology is the source of most of the violence in the cartoon, and the violence is created by failures of technology. The use of a “children’s” medium to critique our reliance on technology offers substantial freedom to the animator, and, in turn to the viewer and the critic. Examination of the cartoon yields insights into the meanings of cartoon violence, into how media reproduce mythic structures, and into the poten- tially rich message systems of children’s media.

Contributors also examine the effects television has on families and dis- cuss the ways in which families can mediate television’s impact on their lives.

1874 Bull, M. The world according to sound: investigating the world of Walkman users. New Media & Society 3(2):179-197, June 2001. AUDITORY EXPERIENCE. MASS MEDIA. MEDIA USE. WALKMAN RADIOS. Through the analysis of Walkman use, the author proposes a reevaluation of the significance of the auditory in everyday experience. The author argues that the role of sound has been largely ignored in the literature on media and everyday life, resulting in systematic distortions of the meanings attached to much everyday behavior. Sound as opposed to vision becomes the site of investigation of everyday life in this article. In focusing thus, the author draws on a range of neglected texts in order to provide a dia- lectical account of auditory and technologically mediated experience that avoids reductive and dichotomous categories of explanation. The author proposes a new evaluation of the relational nature of auditory experience whereby users manage their cognition, interpersonal behavior, and social space. The Walkman is perceived as a tool whereby users manage space, time, and the boundaries around the self.

BELGIUM. PUBLIC SERVICE TELEVISION. TELEVISION AUDIENCES. In this article, the theoretical notions of power developed by Giddens and Foucault are combined to serve as a framework for the analysis of the participation of 20 ordi- nary people in (Jan Publick, an audience discussion program on north Belgian public service television. In this analysis, the positive/generative and negative/repressive aspects of power—united in the Giddean dialectics of control—and especially the management of the participants in the pre-broadcast, broadcast, and post-broadcast- ing phase and the resistance this management provokes, are brought into focus. The conclusion returns to the Foucauldian question of the (local) overall effect and the production of discourses on participation and ordinary people. Although the ordinary people actually deliver a major contribution to the realization of the program, they are also confronted with the management of the production team, putting their participa- tion into perspective.

The discourses constructing the coming-out of Ellen DeGeneres/Ellen Morgan, star of and lead character in the ABC television sitcom Ellen, were permeated with implications of authenticity and liberation, illustrating the continuing power of the confessional ritual described by Michel Foucault in The History of Sexuality. In con- trast to the popular interpretation of the coming-out as an escape from repression, media treatment of the Ellen phenomenon was productive, in Foucault’s sense, con- structing a regulatory discourse that constrained the implications of gay visibility on commercial television norms for representing homosexuality, and through an over- arching strategy of personalization. The author concludes with a discussion of the problems of “poster-child politics” as exemplified by the Ellen discourse.

1878 Grimes, T. and Bergen, L. The notion of convergence as an epistemological base for evaluating the effect of violent TV programming on psychologically normal children. Mass Communication & Society 4(2):183-198, Spring 2001. CHILDREN AND TELEVISION. PSYCHOLOGICAL ADJUSTMENT. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. TELEVISION VIOLENCE. Empirical evidence, which is convincing, that violent television programming can cause psychological abnormality among previously psychologically normal children has yet to surface. However, there is a sizable fraternity of scholars, public policy experts, and lay people who believe that causal evidence is abundant and, in fact, over- whelmingly makes the case. There are four reasons. First, there is much correlational evidence to support the idea that television might have such an effect. Second, there is Mass Media 835 causal evidence that violent TV makes children behave antisocially. However, much of the evidence is produced in “hot house” environments, and definitions of antisocial behavior are invariably at the discretion of the investigator and not a trained clinician. Third, there is an unstated belief that, with such a preponderance of correlational and causal evidence, a cause and effect relation has been established. This preponderance of evidence forms the basis of the convergence argument. Fourth, most television is, prima facie, offensive. Therefore, there is a natural inclination to believe that it must have some harmful psychological effects. In this article, the authors argue that none of these four reasons warrants confidence in a cause and effect relation between violent television and psychological illness among normal children.

1879 Halper, D. L. Invisible stars: a social history of women in American broadcasting. Armonk, NY: M. E. Sharpe, 2001, 344 pp. $39.95 BROADCASTING HISTORY. RADIO. WOMEN. The early years of American broadcasting seem to be an exclusively white male preserve, but the author, a broadcast historian, documents the countless contributions made by women in this field since its earliest days. This artful social history considers our culture’s expectations of women and how those expectations changed throughout the 20th century, how the advent of television changed the landscape of employment opportunities for women in broadcasting, and how both television and radio commu- nicate about gender roles. The book brings to the forefront the stories of key people like Bertha Brainard (one of the first women on the air in New York—and the first woman executive at NBC), Dorothy Thompson (the first woman in radio to make the cover of Time, influential talk-show host Mary Margaret McBride, and many others.

Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, 2000, 273 pp. $22.95 GENDER REPRESENTATION. SCIENCE FICTION. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. WOMEN. In the 11 chapters of this volume, the contributors examine the gender politics of the diverse-yet-connected offerings of the 1990s U.S. science fiction and fantasy tele- vision and draw some tentative conclusions about what speculative genres offer view- ers, especially those invested in a more egalitarian, just, feminist future. The book is organized by the general sites of excursion for the various programs—the present, the future, and fantasy realms. In the first part, the authors examine the gender politics of series that rely on generally realist, present-day scenarios, with specific speculative elements, including Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, ThirdRock from the Sun, The X-Files, and Lois andClark: The New Adventures of Superman . The section part looks at programs centered in speculative realms that, despite great differences in premise and setting, establish a similar containment of women. These include Mystery Science Theater 3000, Xena: Warrior Princess, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Cinderella.In the third part, authors investigate the feminist promises of science fiction television’s future worlds of women scientists, ship’s captains, and alien diplomats. These include Star Trek: Voyager, Babylon 5, and Deep Space Nine. 836 Communication Abstracts

1881 Hellman, H. Diversity—an end in itself? Developing a multi-measure methodology of television programme variety studies. European Journal of Communication 16(2):181-208, June 2001. DIVERSITY. ETHNIC DIFFERENCES. FINLAND. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. The scope of this article is methodological, focusing on the measurement of pro- gram diversity on television. In recent research literature program diversity has been understood too narrowly. To avoid typical pitfalls of diversity studies, the article dis- cusses the concept and dimensions of diversity and, then develops four parallel mea- sures of breadth of programming and difference between channels, applicable for the analysis of both individual channels and the channel system as a whole. These mea- sures (channel diversity, system diversity, deviation, and choice options) are tested in a longitudinal analysis of Finnish television schedules. The article demonstrates that since shifts in the different dimensions of diversity are not necessarily unilinear, the multi-measure method tends to provide a more versatile picture of the developments in program schedules than the traditional diversity analysis can do.

TELEVISION VIOLENCE. THIRD-PERSON EFFECT. THIRD-PERSON PERCEPTION. This study examines the third-person effect (the belief that others are more affected by media messages than oneself) for two different effects of televised vio- lence, mean world perceptions and aggression, using attribution theory as an explana- tory framework. In telephone interviews with a random sample of 253 community residents, third-person effects, as predicted, were observed for both aggression and mean world perceptions, but were larger for the more socially undesirable influence on aggression and for more distant others (in the United States rather than the local community). In addition, those who compared themselves favorably with others per- ceived a larger third-person effect, including demographics and liking for and expo- sure to televised violence.

1883 Hogarth, D. The other documentary tradition: early radio documentaries in Canada. Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television 21(2):123-136, June 2001. BROADCASTING HISTORY. CANADA. DOCUMENTARIES. RADIO. Even before Canadian television came on the air in November 1952, Harry Boyle, who was a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) producer, spoke of a broadcast documentary tradition in Canada. It is that tradition, particularly its origins in public service radio, that is examined in this article. Starting in the 1930s, CBC radio devel- oped a fully fledged documentary apparatus based on aesthetic principles, organiza- tional protocols and channels of distribution entirely different from those that pre- vailed in documentary filmmaking and, in the view of broadcasters, entirely more adequate to the task of representing the nation and its private affairs. Canada’s largely forgotten broadcast documentary tradition had enormous impact on early forms of information programming. Mass Media 837

TELEVISION VIOLENCE. This looks into depicting violence in interpersonal context on television. George Gerbner’s Theory of Cultural Indicators and contextual analysis of TV violence are referred to on performing an aggregate analysis on TV programming of fiction. A content analysis was used as the research method in this study. During a time period of one week, 24 fiction programs of series and feature films showed at prime time on four national broadcasting channels were recorded. Violent acts and the program as a whole were the main analysis units.

TEXTUAL ANALYSIS. The author’s paper is interested in academic interpretations that are too quick to identify nationalistic discourses, and which close down the ambivalences and contra- dictions of a text too firmly. Analyzing a group of recent Chinese television dramas, which he sees to be indicative of new modalities of freedom in Chinese public life, he challenges the academics who dismissed these programs as overtly nationalistic, sex- ist, and entrepreneurialistic. Once again, the author suggests alternative possibilities for interpreting these texts—for it seems to him that these programs are much more open texts that the critics have allowed. He suggests that in the spirit of the Marxist dialectic, contradictions abound in these television programs. The author uses survey material from students to suggest that the possibilities for identification in the pro- grams are more open than academic critics suggest—less nationalistic (allowing identification with American characters); less sexist (allowing identification with female characters); and less insistently entrepreneurial (allowing the possibility of refusing identification with the central, amoral, and entrepreneurial hero of one of the dramas).

MORAL DEVELOPMENT. MORAL REASONING. TELEVISION VIOLENCE. This experiment examined the effect of a child’s age on his or her interpretation of an act of interpersonal violence on television. A total of 184 children in 2 age groups were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 viewing conditions in which they watched a violent video clip. The clips depicted identical violent acts; however, punishment (yes/no) of the violent act and provocation (yes/no) for the violent act were manipulated to create four conditions. Following the video clip, children were asked to judge whether the act was right or wrong and why. They then engaged in a test of their willingness to choose aggression as a solution to a hypothetical interpersonal conflict. As predicted, younger children thought that unpunished violence was more right than punished vio- lence. Older children thought that provoked violence was more right than unprovoked violence, although this result only approached significance. Children’s willingness to 838 Communication Abstracts choose a violent story ending to a hypothetical interpersonal conflict was related to their experimental condition for older children but not for younger children.

1887 Meister, M. Cultural feeding, good life science, and the TV food network. Mass Com- munication & Society 4(2):165-182, Spring 2001. BIOLOGY. POLITICAL ECONOMY. TELEVISION FOOD NETWORK. TELEVISION NETWORKS. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. The TV Food Network (TVFN) is one of cable industry’s most successful net- works because it illustrates the rhetorical relationship between food and living a lei- sure-filled and excessive good life. Consistent with the political economy approach to the study of mass media, in this article the author argues that TVFN promotes a pow- erful good life science that promotes excessivism, waste, and dependence (cultural “feeding”). Lost in the good life science of the TVFN is the simplicity of food and nature. What is expounded on is the excessive consumption of food and nature, and the promotion of an anthropocentric attitude toward nature. The author profiles good life science by discussing it with reference to Burke’s (1984) rhetorical and critical theory of identification. The remainder of the article draws some critical implications based on this analysis.

TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. THE SIMPSONS. The Simpsons cartoon show provides a valuable case study to examine issues of niche marketing, genre mixing, and postmodernism that mark our understanding of contemporary media. The author focuses on how the show’s generic status affected its larger cultural circulation. The author contends that the show’s genre mixing is crucial to understanding the program and that genre has had deeper and more significant ram- ifications than one might presume by following the typical approaches to genre study, namely, identifying generic definitions and meanings. Instead, by conceptualizing genre as a discursive process of categorization and hierarchization, rather than as a core textual component, we might be able to view the cultural workings of genre as it relates to television programming. Specifically, the author focuses on how genre impacts The Simpsons regarding issues of cultural hierarchies, assumptions about tar- get audiences, codes of realism, and the implications of genre parody, all of which can add to our understanding of contemporary media landscapes.

1889 Nathanson, A. I. Parents versus peers: exploring the significance of peer mediation of antisocial television. Communication Research 28(3):251-274, June 2001. ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOR. PARENTAL CONTROL. PARENT-CHILD INTERACTION. PEER PRESSURE. TELEVISION EFFECTS. TELEVISION VIOLENCE. Although research demonstrates that parents can protect their children from harm- ful media effects by engaging in parental mediation, parental influences may wane when children reach adolescence and face pressures from peers. The Sullivan-Piaget thesis suggests that peers become especially important and influential during Mass Media 839 adolescence. Surprisingly, very little mass communication research has considered the role of peers in shaping media effects on adolescents. This study took a first look at peer mediation of antisocial television and found that it occurs more frequently and is more potent than parental mediation. In addition, peer mediation promotes more posi- tive orientations toward antisocial television, which in turn leads to greater aggres- sion. Whereas parental mediation can inhibit negative media effects, peer mediation seems to facilitate harmful outcomes. It is suggested that future research follow up on this initial study of peer mediation so that this potentially important construct can be further developed and understood.

TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. TEXTUAL ANALYSIS. What this study offers is an analysis of a particular instance of off-network pro- gramming as a way to illustrate some of the key critical imperatives that we now face as the era of dominance enjoyed by the general-market broadcast networks gives way to the era of narrowcasting. The author’s goal is not to offer a definitive account of Lifetime Television’s adaptation of Homicide: Life on the Street, but to take a small step toward a more general reconsideration of some of the problems facing television studies more generally. The author begins by reconsidering the issue of television textuality itself, not as unified by its dramaticmaterial alone, but, rather, as intricately bound up with the varying commercial frames in which programs are placed through- out their “life-spans.” The author then offers a brief case study of one particular epi- sode of Homicide moved from NBC to Lifetime. The author then offers a more gen- eral consideration of the types of textual distinction we can make between commercial contexts, especially at the intersections of gender and genre in these dif- ferent contexts.

Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2001, pp. 115-151. $125.00/$70.00 CHILDREN AND THE MEDIA. MEDIATED COMMUNICATION. PARENT-CHILD INTERACTION. TELEVISION VIEWING. Despite decades of research on parents’ or other adults’ mediations of children’s television viewing, we still have a rather limited understanding of its potential to pro- mote positive effects and prevent negative outcomes. One reason for this is that a con- sensus regarding the proper conceptualizations of mediation has not yet been reached. As a result, the term has been used inconsistently and produced a body of literature that is difficult to synthesize. The purpose of this paper is to review how mediation has been regarded in past work and to develop a clear conceptualization of this construct. In addition, previous research on the effects of mediation is synthesized to provide a summary of its potential to affect children’s reactions to television. Common themes, especially those relevant to explaining how mediation influences children, are identi- fied and discussed. 840 Communication Abstracts

WOMEN. In most critical histories of fin-de-siecle literature, Mary Cholmondeley’s 1899 novel, RedPottage , stands as a classic text of New Woman fiction. It protests against the unequal treatment of brothers and sisters and against the sexual double standard; it depicts a female friendship that crosses class boundaries, with its better-off protago- nist sustaining her impoverished sister in the East End of London; and it not only makes the heroine a “female writer of feminist fiction,” a feature that Sally Ledger identifies with the New Woman novel, but further makes this writer’s fiction emerge from a bond of deeply felt sisterhood. Yet, Cholmondeley’s pre-1899 fiction does not anticipate the themes of this book, or prepare its reader for the intense engagement with New Woman ideology. How did she come to publish RedPottage , so different a novel from her other work? By concentrating on the role of periodicals and publishers in its production, this essay offers some tentative answers that contextualize Cholmondeley’s career and her composition of RedPottage in terms of the market conditions that she and other fin-de-siecle women writers faced in developing and sus- taining their work.

TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. With Arab-owned satellite channels of all types now broadcasting in all directions, from inside and outside the Arab world, state-centric approaches are no longer valid for analyzing power relations in this field. Combining Susan Strange’s theory of structural power with Robert Cox’s model of world hegemony, developed from the work of Antonio Gramsci, this article proposes an alternative perspective from which to view the organizational formula adopted for satellite broadcasting. After showing how labels such as national and public cannot be stretched to fit even Egypt’s state-owned satellite channels, the article compares competing visions for the future of Egyptian satellite broadcasting on the basis of whether they conform to world hege- monic orthodoxies or challenge them.

AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR. MASCULINITY. MEN. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. VIOLENT BEHAVIOR. This study examined the effects of exposure to television programming that con- tains both violent actions and macho portrayals of male characters in subsequent self-reports of aggression and hostility. Experimental results showed that those exposed to a violent and hypermasculine television program had a larger increase in reports of aggression and hostility compared to those exposed to a nonviolent, hypermasculine television program. Self-reports of higher levels of hypermasculinity prior to exposure led to larger increases in aggression and hostility after exposure. Journalism and News Media 841

Predicted interactions between exposure to the stimulus and prior hypermasculinity occurred for many of the aggression/hostility dimensions. The theory of neo-associationism and priming is discussed to explain the patterns of results.

PERSONALITY TRAITS. TELEVISION PROGRAMMING. Programs based on the experiences and emotions of ordinary people are an impor- tant feature of television schedules worldwide. So far, however, media researchers have done little to investigate the motives and experiences of those who lend their lives to such programs. This article investigates the experiences of participants in one of the more traditional program formats based on ordinary people—the television dat- ing game. This article presents evidence from a study of participants in Reisesjekken, a Norwegian dating game modeled on the British ITV program BlindDate . The analy- sis is based on interviews with 40 participants and five producers. The main questions are the following: Why do people want to participant in a television dating game? What are the main sources of conflict between participants and production staff? And, what do the participants get out of it in the long run?

WOMEN’S HISTORY. This article reviews recent work that deals with the experience of women in Amer- ican journalism. It concludes that this work points in the direction of a new synthesis telling a more comprehensive story of women and journalism as an alternative to the present narrative that details women’s efforts to succeed professionally by conform- ing to a male model of journalisticperformance.To fully arrive at this synthesis, the article contends, a new definition of journalism itself is needed—one broad enough to encompass women like Eleanor Roosevelt, who used journalism for political and per- sonal ends not related to the professional norm of objectivity. In calling for a redefini- tion of journalism to include women’s perspectives, the article advocates more use of family-oriented social history and biography as well as more study of women’s net- working in journalism and women’s personal experience recorded in oral histories.

GENETICS. NEWSPAPER HEADLINES. Critics have suggested that news headlines about genetics with inappropriately deterministic content will produce increased levels of determinism in the public, even when news article contents are not highly deterministic. This might result from a replacement effect (headlines stand in for the content of the article because few people read it fully) or from a framing effect (headlines frame the interpretation of the article 842 Communication Abstracts content). A quantitative impact study and an interview method were used to test the impact of the framing effect in a news article on genes and diabetes. In the impact study, 97 college students enrolled in a large Southeastern university were recruited from introductory speech communication classes. There were three treatment groups. In the interviews, 95 participants between 18 and 45 were recruited based on conve- nience samples from personal networks of 14 undergraduate students who served as interviewers. This exploratory study found no support for a framing effect.

Topics covered include the following: How the investment market shapes the newspapers we read; How Wall Street-influenced incentives adopted by the firms corrode journalism values; and How newspapers are driven to segment their markets and short-change readers. The book advances remedies—structural and legal—for ensuring that the operation of newspaper companies reflects the special nature of newspapers in our democratic society.

NEWSPAPERS. RESEARCH TRENDS. The future of journalism is not what it used to be. As recently as the mid 1960s, few would have predicted the shocks and transformations that have swept through the news business in the last three decades—the deaths of many afternoon newspapers, the emergence of television as people’s primary news source, and the quicksilver combination of cable television, VCRs, and the Internet that have changed our way of reading, seeking, and listening. The essays in this volume seek to illuminate the future prospects of journalism. Mindful that grandiose predictions of the world of tomorrow tend to the fantasies and phobias of the present written large—in the 1930s and 1940s magazines forecast that one day we would have an airplane in every garage—the authors of the volume take a more careful view. The writers start with what we know—the trends that they see in journalism today—and ask where they take us in the foreseeable future. For some media, such as newspapers, the visible horizon is decades away. For others, particularly anything involving the Internet, responsible forecasts can look ahead only for a matter of years.

DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISCOURSE STRATEGIES. EDITORIALS. NEWSPAPER COVERAGE. PUBLIC OPINION. “Opinion” discourse—editorials, op-ed articles, and guest columns—assumes an important communicative function by offering newsreaders a distinctive and authori- tative voice that will speak to them directly, in the face of troubling or problematic cir- cumstances. Opinion discourse addresses newsreaders embraced in a consensual relationship by taking a particular stance in relation to the persona and topics referred. Nevertheless, despite its communicative importance, opinion discourse has received less sustained theoretical and empirical attention from scholars than hard news. Where hard news purports to be balanced and fair, “opinion” discourse problematizes the world by taking up the normative dimension of issues and events as the justifica- tion and rationale for taking sides. Taking the arrivals to Canada of four boatloads of “illegal” Chinese immigrants in 1999 as a case study, this article aims to contribute theoretical understanding about the import of opinion discourse to the critical study of news while offering a contribution to scholarship on the social construction of the “other.”

NEW YORK CITY. WOMEN. This article is concerned with the way that women’s liberation and the icon of the New Woman were represented and used in America during the 1910s. Through an examination of the connections between the little New York magazines and the main- stream press of the time, it becomes clear that the journalistic myth of the New Woman, and her strategicdeployment in retrogressive debates about women’s role in culture and society was perpetrated not only in the pages of the New York Sun, the New York Times, and the New York Herald and the like but also through the little magazines and other publications of the supposedly radical American modernists. It is only the women of modernism themselves, those individuals who had most to lose in a denial of the political and social efficacy of newly liberated woman, who actively sought to challenge the iconography of the New Woman.

This study aims to shed light on the news selection process by examining the news values operational in British newspapers. The study takes as its starting point Galtung and Ruge’s widely cited taxonomy of news values established in their 1965 study and puts these criteria to the test in an empirical analysis of news published in three national daily United Kingdom newspapers. A review of Galtung and Ruge’s original study as well as a wider review of related literature is provided. The authors’findings underline Tunstall’s concern that, by focusing on coverage of three major interna- tional crises, Galtung and Ruge ignored day-to-day coverage of lesser, domestic and bread-and-butter news. In short, despite the way it has been so widely cited, Galtung and Ruge’s taxonomy of news factors appears to ignore the majority of news stories. Furthermore, although the figures given in the article suggest that news stories do fre- quently contain the factors identified by Galtung and Ruge, the study adds weight to Seaton’s contention that many items of news are not reports of events at all, but pseudo-events, free advertising, or public relations spin.

This is an analysis of the social structural context of community newspaper edi- tors’ use of a variety of information technologies, including technologies that can be conceptualized as being (1) compatible with and (2) incompatible with the routine production of the newspaper. Findings were that newspapers in more pluralistic, more urban communities were more likely to use all varieties of information technologies than were newspapers in less pluralistic, rural communities. Nationally, the gap between rural and urban communities with online newspapers was widening. Other indicators of social resources, the editor’s education level and the newspaper’s organi- zational complexity, did not explain the newspaper’s use of information technologies that are compatible with normal news gathering operations.

SANDINISTAS. This article examines two decades in the life of Barricada, established as the offi- cial organ of the revolutionary Sandinista Front (FSLN) of Nicaragua, from its Journalism and News Media 845 founding in 1979 through to its demise as a daily in 1998. It is argued that, distinct from the overriding mobilizing imperative of support for its Sandinista sponsor, an institutionally generated “professional imperative” was also evident in Barricada’s functioning from the early days of the paper’s operations. After the FSLN’s election defeat in 1990, this professional imperative—along with the political preference of most senior staff for “renovation” within the FSLN—resulted in the paper’s establish- ing a significant degree of day-to-day autonomy from its sponsor, and important transformations in its journalistic project. This semi-autonomy was foreclosed when the dominant ortodoxo faction of the Front engineered the dismissal of the newspa- per’s director, Carolos Fernando Chamorro, in 1994. Barricada then returned to its more highly mobilized role as FSLN propagandist, but lost readers and advertising revenue as a result, finally closing in February 1998. The newspaper’s trajectory serves as a useful bellwether for Nicaragua’s revolutionary and post-revolutionary experience as a whole.

NATIONAL GOVERNMENT. NEWSPAPER COVERAGE. THEOCRATIC GOVERNMENT. Since the early 1990s, the concept of civil society and its relationship to the state has become a growing concern among Iranian intellectuals. The press, in the absence of a proper political party system, has become a key space wherein the debates about the nature of political participation and the contours of the public sphere can be articu- lated and thus itself a significant contributor to the growth of civil society. The press has also come under severe attack from the conservative section of the regime, intent on keeping strong control over political debate that threatens to spill out and over into political action. This article maps the manner in which the press has become a key site in the ongoing struggle between conservatives and reformers inside the Islamic Republicof Iran. A more moderate president has encouragedrenewed debate about civil society, often evident in new titles and newspaper content, while the forces of conservatism continue to fear and censor such debate. A new struggle around an old medium is very alive in Iran.

Europe has a variety of newspaper markets and, yet, in almost all European coun- tries newspaper readership is in decline. Research from the United States suggests that this decrease may be connected to only a few demographic factors—gender, edu- cation, income, and age. This analysis of audience data from nine European Union member countries in 1980, 1989, and 1998 indicates that the decline is mainly due to both age and cohort effects. As in the United States, young people do not read current affairs daily any more. The impact of income has increased, although it is not as important, whereas education as a determinant of reading has nearly disappeared. The signals of this analysis are alarming, the author claims. Certainly, the decrease of daily 846 Communication Abstracts readership varies between countries. The structure of the readership may, to a certain extent, depend on different media offerings, and this might explain the country differ- ences in the frequency of reading about current politics.

1908 Law, A. Near and far: banal national identity and the press in Scotland. Media Culture & Society 23(3):299-317, May 2001. NATIONAL IDENTITY. NATIONALISM. NEWSPAPERS. RHETORIC. SCOTLAND. Too often, study of communicative and cultural processes makes “gratuitous assumptions” about media and collective identities like national identity. This article is a critical engagement with Michael Billig’s notion of “banal nationalism,” a rare analysis of everyday media rhetoricand nationalism. It does this through a survey of daily newspapers sold in Scotland. Newspapers are plotted according to an index of semantic assumptions they make about where the spatial center of national communi- cation lies. The newspapers surveyed cluster into three broad national types, ranging from an indigenous Scottish press, Scottish editions of English-based papers, tabloid interlopers, and the English-based broadsheets. The article argues that Billig’s emphasis on the big state nationalism of the United States and the United Kingdom restricts the analytic scope of “banal nationalism” when studying newspaper rhetoric in a stateless nation, like Scotland.

1909 Law, G. New woman novels in newspapers. Media History 7(1):17-31, June 2001. FICTION. JOURNALISM HISTORY. MAGAZINES. NEWSPAPERS. SERIAL NOVELS. WOMEN. The last decade or so has witnessed a steady rise of academic interest in the New Woman. The initial phase of study was principally in the area of narrative fiction, but more recently, attention has begun to turn toward the newspaper and magazine mar- ket. However, only certain kinds of narrative fiction and only certain sections of the periodical press (the prestigious quarterlies, coterie magazines, and literary month- lies, but not the popular or provincial weeklies) have thus far been focused on with any precision. Moreover, as the author has argued elsewhere, installment fiction itself was a far more common and substantial ingredient in the mixture constituting the Victo- rian newspaper and especially the weekly newspaper, than has generally been recog- nized. So that, in the last Victorian decades, novels in newspapers were in fact a pow- erful medium for broadcasting images of and ideas on the change status of women. In this article the author illustrates the value of mixed sources for the critical study of the New Woman in two stages: first treating provincial papers and later turning to metro- politan sources. The discussion is limited to British material dating from the 1880s and 1890s.

1910 Mendelson, A. Effects of novelty in news photographs on attention and memory. Me- dia Psychology 3(2):119-158, 2001. ATTENTION STRUCTURE. MEMORY. NEWSPAPERS. PHOTOGRAPHS. Critics of news photography have argued that most news photographs are highly conventional. Two experiments were conducted to examine how people respond to photographs that break with conventionality. Specifically, these studies tested the Journalism and News Media 847 effects of photographic novelty in terms of preferences for viewing, viewing time, recall memory, and interest ratings for the photographs when seen alone and when seen in a newspaper. The experiments show that readers respond better to photographs that are novel, but only when the images are viewed on their own. These effects disap- pear when photographs are seen as part of newspaper pages. In this context, the only driving sources of interest seem to be the story topic.

1911 Ney, B. The woman reporter goes street haunting. On the work of women reporters in the Swedish daily press, 1900-1910. Media History 7(1):41-46, June 2001. GENDER DIFFERENCES. JOURNALISM HISTORY. JOURNALISTS. NEWSPAPERS. STOCKHOLM. SWEDEN. WOMEN. In this article, the author discusses the ways in which the early women reporters in Stockholm, Sweden, made journalism out of their experience on the streets of the city. As reporters they had to walk the streets often alone, during the day, and, more prob- lematically, at night. They discovered a nightlife they had never before been exposed to, and they wrote articles about how men behaved toward them on the streets. At the same time, there were discussions elsewhere in the press about a woman’s right to walk the streets and to be left in peace. The author also draws on two autobiographies of women journalists who discussed their memories of being on the streets and reflected on their feelings of anger and fear. The author links these aspects of early 20th-century journalism with the idea of the flaneur. This is an ambiguous term, which has come to mean more than a man walking on the street, a voyeur. The flaneur is linked to fin-de-siecle decadence in literature and art. But when the woman reporter in the early years of the 20th century is walking the streets, she is more like a liberated daughter. Often, her feelings of joy are present in her texts. These texts lend them- selves to interpretation in the context of women’s trying out their newfound rights in a changing society.

CALIFORNIA. JOURNALISM HISTORY. NEWSPAPERS. U.S. MEDIA. During the last years of the 19th century, Basque people, both from the Northern and the Southern Basque Country, emigrated to South and North America. A Basque colony settled in California, then one of the youngest states of the Union and a melting pot of cultures, races and languages. There flourished a lot of newspapers written in the different languages of the emigrants, following at the same time the American model, trying to give some service to each one’s community. The ethnic press was born. Two Basque weekly newspapers were published in Los Angeles: Escualdun Gazeta (The Basque Newspaper) and California-ko Eskual Herria (The Basque Peo- ple of California), whose history is told in this article. 848 Communication Abstracts

1913 Onslow, B. New world, new woman, new journalism: Elizabeth Banks, transatlantic stuntwoman in London. Media History 7(1):7-15, June 2001. ELIZABETH BANKS. INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM. JOURNALISM HISTORY. WOMEN. This article chronicles the exploits of American journalist Elizabeth Banks, who came to London to work in the 1890s. The arrival on the journalistic scene of Banks, an American version of the New World journalist, highlighted the fractured image of the British version, exposing the contradictory demands made on her as a professional journalist and a modern woman. What were the boundaries beyond which the woman journalist should never go? What, indeed, were the ethical limits of journalism? Punch’s criticism of Banks in “The Irrepressible She” could not expose her without also implicating the profession in which she engaged. For women, the world of Lon- don journalism in the 1890s was a confusing one. Despite the high-profile columnists like Mrs. Humphry and Mrs. Aria and foreign correspondents like Flora Shaw, who caught the imagination of ambitious young women, most who tried to break into Fleet Street found it an uphill struggle. Relatively few staff jobs, the women’s interests apart, sought women. Banks, however, was able to change this by capitalizing on her novelty value as an American woman in England. The author argues she was an appropriate, if dangerous, icon of the newly independent young women, and kindled controversy over the legitimacy and ethical limits of investigative journalism.

1914 Opt, S. K. and Delaney, T. A. Investigative reporting: reconsidering the public view. New Jersey Journal of Communication 9(1):76-87, Spring 2001. INVESTIGATIVE REPORTING. PUBLIC OPINION. U.S. media researchers and pollsters have examined public approval of investiga- tive reporting and its techniques. They have attempted to identify variables that influ- ence those perceptions and looked at recall of specific investigative series. What has not received much attention, however, is whether the public being surveyed is responding to the concept of investigative reporting as defined by researchers and media professionals and whether the publicbelieves it takes actionas a result of these reports. This becomes the focus of this preliminary study. The study finds that the U.S. publicseems to name any story involving an investigation as investigative reporting, and investigative reports appear to have minimal influence. This raises questions about what investigative journalism researchers have been measuring and why the public continues to show support when it is unable to recall investigative stories.

1915 Oram, A. Feminism, androgyny and love between women in Urania, 1916-1940. Me- dia History 7(1):47-56, June 2001. ANDROGYNY. FEMINISM. JOURNALISM HISTORY. MAGAZINES. SEXUALITY. WOMEN. Urania is a little-known feminist periodical containing a mixture of material. The journal was produced by a small group of feminist women and men, privately pub- lished three times a year from 1916 to 1940, and claimed a circulation of 200 to 250. This article examines the magazine, noting that its longevity and persistence are impressive. It is almost unique as a small feminist periodical in continuing to publish for a world-wide network of readers over 25 years. Urania is important, the author claims, in challenging the periodization of the history of feminism and sexuality. Its Journalism and News Media 849 position on sex, gender, and sexuality was based on a theosophical version of feminist politics current in the 1900s. Urania provides evidence of ongoing allegiance to this promotion of androgyny, a message radically at odds with inter-war feminism. Simi- larly, its continued publication shows that ideas about spiritual love still had support after the First World War and were not superseded for all feminists by the dominant emphasis on sexual desire and the gendered physical body. Its enthusiasm for same-sex love arose out of this spiritual and cultural perspective that went against the grain of contemporary sexology—the context historians have privileged for this period.

MARKETING STRATEGIES. ONLINE NEWSPAPERS. Can established newspapers leverage their offline brand equity to the online edi- tion in order to create visits and page views? In this study, both cross-sectional and time-series analyses are applied to 12 Spanish newspapers. The findings indicate that brand equity in the marketplace can be efficiently leveraged into the marketspace. Online readership depends both on offline popularity and on the profile fit between the typical Internet user and the typical offline reader of the newspaper.

TELEVISION STATIONS. This article analyzes the market structure of large, medium, and small market sta- tions by looking at changes in the market shares and number of competitors. By ana- lyzing specific factors that affect conduct variables of local television news, a change in market structure from oligopolistic to monopolistic competition can be predicted. These factors were used as independent variables framing the discussion—number of sellers within the industry, degree of similarity of market shares, and degree of prod- uct differentiation. Findings suggest that in smaller markets only the most financially secure, number-one-rated stations will risk adding more time for news to their pro- gramming. However, in top-10 markets, where the financial stakes are higher, trailing stations compete by increasing their news presence throughout the day. Overall, the number of television news competitors has increased, whereas shares have decreased, indicating the beginnings of a shift from oligopolistic to monopolistic competition.

JOURNALISTS. Globalization of media organizations has brought accompanying debates about the proper education and professional standards for the journalists who work for them. These journalistic and press performance issues have attracted a 850 Communication Abstracts correspondingly global community of scholars to conduct often transnational, com- parative studies. In this article, the author considers the issues raised in examining these “global journalists” from a sociology-of-media and a cross-national compara- tive perspective. The author proposes a hierarchy of influences levels-of-analysis model to help clarify and address such questions, including the problematic nature of professionalism. From micro to macro, these levels address what factors shape media and news content, and include the individual journalists, news routines, organiza- tional, extra-media, and ideological, with each carrying a different view of the profes- sionalism issue. Although many studies, comparative and otherwise, have been con- ducted at the individual level, often using surveys to examine the views and characteristics of individual professionals, this model requires that we taken into account the larger structure within which these journalists function. More important than national differences may be the emergence of a transnational global profession- alism, the shape of which will greatly affect how well the world’s press meets the nor- mative standards we would wish for it.

1919 Richards, T. and King, B. An alternative to the fighting frame in news reporting. Cana- dian Journal of Communication 25(4):479-496, Autumn 2000. CONFLICT FRAMING. FRAME ANALYSIS. JOURNALISTS. MEDIA COVERAGE. Journalists rely on conflict as a conventional method of framing news reporting. Faced with the pressure of deadlines and time and space constraints, as well as strained resources, and their perception that media consumers prefer this reportorial style, journalists resort to conflict-based reporting. This approach positions one side against another, excluding the likely possibility that there are several sides in any given dispute, simplifying the complexities of the issue, and often exacerbating the conflict by the very nature of the reportage. The public repeatedly expresses dissatis- faction with current media practices. Journalists themselves are increasingly calling for an alternative approach. Using a dispute between a monastery and a forestry com- pany as a case study, this paper analyzes media coverage, comments on key players’ observations, and offers an alternative approach for consideration.

UNITED KINGDOM. This paper examines the representation of British Muslim communities in the British broadsheet press and provides empirical evidence that (1) British Muslim communities are almost wholly absent from the news, excluded from all but predomi- nantly negative contexts; (2) when British Muslims do appear, they are included only as participants in news events, not as providers of informed commentary on news events; and, therefore, (3) the issues and concerns of the communities are not being served by the agendas of the broadsheet press. The paper presupposes that the power relationships represented in the broadsheet press are both generative and transposable, modifying power relations in other fields. The author argues that the dominant modes of representing British Muslims are therefore both a product of and a contributing factor to the continued social exclusion of British Muslim communities at all levels of society.

This book examines where real-time news coverage has been, where it is today, and where it is going. Emphasis is placed not just on the ability to go live but on the quality of the real-time news product. “Journalism ethics” is not an oxymoron; there are few professions in which ethical issues get more day-to-day attention than they receive in the news business. Real-time reporting enhances the already substantial power of the news media, which makes essential the good faith and good judgment of those who provide that coverage. This is the key to ethical journalism, but it requires more than instinct. The issues of real-time news demand thoughtful consideration that can serve as the foundation for making real-time ethical decisions.

Discourse & Society 12(4):347-370, May 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. LESOTHO. MILITARY INTERVENTION. NEWSPAPER COVERAGE. POLITICAL IDEOLOGY. SOUTH AFRICA. SOUTHERN AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY. This study examines the coverage of the Southern African Development Commu- nity’s (SADC’s) military intervention in Lesotho by the South African newspa- pers—how the newspapers articulate conflicting ideological positions in their report- age of the intervention. Working within the ideological framework of news production and reception, the article examines the issue of critique (with emphasis on blame) in these newspapers. Dividing the news texts into supportive and protest cate- gories, the study investigates different perceptions (opinions, feelings, attitudes, etc.) about South Africa’s involvement in the conflict, and how such perceptions were encoded in the ideologically based discursive patterns (lexical, metaphorical, and intertextual choices). The differences between the newspaper reports are also seen as establishing two rival social group identities, expressed through the ideological us versus them binary opposition.

1923 Torck, D. Voices of homeless people in street newspapers: a cross-cultural explora- tion. Discourse & Society 12(4):371-392, May 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. EUROPE. HOMELESS CULTURE. HOMELESSNESS. NEWSPAPER COVERAGE. STREET NEWSPAPERS. UNITED STATES. This study is a discourse analysis of four street newspapers from Europe and the United States. Street newspapers (SNPs), which are sold on the street by homeless people, usually claim to make society aware of homelessness and related issues, to be a platform for homeless people, and to help them regain independence and self-respect. This analysis questions this claim. It describes the framing of homeless people’s voices and homelessness issues in these newspapers by looking at their objectives, topics, and text genres, and at the (self)representation of homeless people in texts written by them, or about them. The European SNP’s give a limited platform to homeless people’s voices, and tend to limit these to personal narratives and poetry. 852 Communication Abstracts

In contrast, the American street newspapers, written by (former) homeless people, gives a wide and diversified platform to the issues surrounding homelessness and to the individuals concerned. However, it is not completely free of a certain emphasis on feelings and pathos, which is also observed, with variations, in the European SNP’s, and in many ways evokes traditional political and media discourse on poor and mar- ginal people, reinforcing the negative social ethos of the homeless.

1924 Trumbo, C. W., et al. Use of e-mail and the web by science writers. Science Commu- nication 22(4):347-378, June 2001. ELECTRONIC MAIL. SCIENCE COMMUNICATION. SCIENCE JOURNALISTS. WORLD WIDE WEB. This study was designed to accomplish three goals in its examination of how sci- ence journalists use electronic mail and the World Wide Web. The first was to make a quantitative-descriptive comparison of a set of key e-mail and Web-use variables across the span of five years. The second was to propose a model to explain the factors underlying how science journalists have come to use the Web in their work. The third was to explore issues involving the use of the Web in news-making through open-ended interviews with a section of survey respondents. The authors report data from two surveys of the National Association of Science Writers conducted in 1994 and 1999 to investigate e-mail and Web use by science journalists. Results show that task and social e-mail use have expanded dramatically. Also, the Web has become a regular part of science journalism. Enthusiasm for the use of the Web is a function of a positive orientation toward the quality of Web information, trust in the sources behind Web information, and individual characteristics of connectedness. The authors con- clude with qualitative interviews with five science writers who provide supporting anecdotal evidence.

1925 Wheeler, D. L. The Internet and publicculturein Kuwait. Gazette 63(2/3):187-201, April 2001. CONTENT ANALYSIS. INTERNET. INTERNET USE. KUWAIT. NEWSPAPER COVERAGE. This article considers the development and impact of the Internet in Kuwait. It argues that even though important cultural filters shape Internet use, experimentation with new social relationships in cyberspace occurs. This is true especially among youths. It performs three kinds of analyses to make its main point. First, it performs a content analysis of the major Kuwait daily newspapers in both Arabic and English to illustrate the emergence of a public consciousness of the Internet. Second, it uses sur- vey data to describe the scope and character of the Kuwait Internet community in rela- tion to the general population of Kuwait, and in relation to regional Internet access/use patterns. Third, it examines the emerging impacts of Internet use in Kuwait. It con- cludes that the most significant possibilities for change stem from student use of the Internet to transgress gender boundaries, and to protest the state’s new gender law. 853

POPULAR CULTURE AND THE MEDIA

1926 Durham, M. G. Displaced persons: symbols of South Asian femininity and the re- turned gaze in U.S. media culture. Communication Theory 11(2):201-217, May 2001. ETHNOGRAPHY. POPULAR CULTURE. SEXUALITY. WOMEN. The media’s showcasing of nose rings, mehndi, and bindis in U.S. fashion is a con- temporary appropriation of South Asian symbols by Western popular culture. This paper employs a critical analysis of media images of white women adorned in the symbols of Indian femininity to explore the circulation economy of seeing and repre- sentation. The theoretical intervention offered in this paper turns on the notion of the Third Eye—the potential for the object of ethnographic spectacle to return the gaze. The analysis reveals that the contemporary “ethnic chic” preserves power hierarchies by locating the white women as sexual object, and the Indian women as the disembod- ied fetish that supports white female sexuality. The implications for South Asian American women include the need to re-imagine sexuality with reference to critical race theory and the potential to return an oppositional gaze.

1927 Mandziuk, R. M. Confessional discourse and modern desires: power and pleasure in True Story magazine. Critical Studies in Media Communication 18(2):174-193, June 2001. DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISCOURSE STRATEGIES. JOURNALISM HISTORY. MAGAZINES. POPULAR CULTURE. TRUE STORY. WOMEN. This essay traces the roots of the popular culture “commodity confessional” by examining the first five years of the magazine True Story. Begun in 1919, True Story initiated a formula of first person, confessional narratives directed at working-class women audiences, a formula still prominent in contemporary media forms. Situated at the nexus between entertainment and instruction, True Story’s commodity confes- sionals fulfilled three functions for their women readers. First, the stories functioned as therapeuticmessages promising benefits and rewards to women. Second,they pro - vided didactic instruction on proper behavior and modern ways. Third, the commod- ity confessionals served as interrogative texts that raised questions about cultural pro- scriptions for women. Although such confessional narratives served a hegemonic force, they also provided pleasures and liberatory possibilities for its female audience.

1928 McNeil, D. The spectacle of protest and punishment: newspaper coverage of the Melksham weavers’ riot of 1738. Media History 7(1):71-84, June 2001. JOURNALISM HISTORY. LABOR RELATIONS. MELKSHAM WEAVERS’RIOT. NEWSPAPER COVERAGE. PAYMENT IN KIND. PUNITIVE PAYROLL DEDUCTION. UNITED KINGDOM. WAGES. According to his own testimony, John Crabb was drunk on the night of Tuesday, the 28th of November 1738, when he returned to Henry Coulthurst’s residence, which 854 Communication Abstracts had been sacked by an angry crowd earlier that evening; he was quickly apprehended by a guard placed there to protect the clothier’s house from further damage from the rioting weavers. The weavers, in fact, would riot sporadically for another two days before the troops were called in from Bristol and Salisbury. At the heart of their protest was the alleged practice on the part of their employers, the clothiers or cloth owners, of paying in truck—that is, paying in goods—and taking unfair deductions in rates of pay for imperfections. Although the disturbances ceased when the troops arrived, the dispute between the clothiers and weavers would spill over into Salisbury and Glou- cester newspapers. This paper examines the press coverage, primarily of the Salisbury Journal and the Gloucester Journal, of the 1738 Melksham riot, the subsequent debate and the trials. The coverage began as “balanced” between the perspectives of the two opposing sides, but became clearly biased in favor of the clothiers who, not surprisingly, held more power.

THE NETHERLANDS. SOAP OPERAS. In this article the author explores the professional attitudes, dilemmas, norms and values involved in the representation of ethnicity in the following three Dutch prime-time soap operas: GoodTimes , BadTimes ; Heading Towards Tomorrow; and Goldcoast. This article is based on 34 in-depth interviews with 32 professionals who in various ways are involved in the production of Dutch popular drama, including pro- ducers, actors, project managers, casting directions, and scriptwriters. The author found that those who make soap operas deal with ethnicdifferencesranging from the aesthetic to the moral-political. It is made clear how ethnic differences or color are always locally and contextually defined. Case studies of how ethnic difference is negotiated in everyday soap opera practice are discussed.

1930 Meijer, I. C. The publicquality of popular journalism: developing a normative frame - work. Journalism Studies 2(2):189-205, May 2001. CITIZENSHIP. JOURNALISM. POPULAR CULTURE. Nowadays, the democratic (public) potential of popular journalism is seldom denied. Generally speaking, however, journalism is celebrated when it reports current affairs but denounced when it focuses on private or emotional matters. It is common knowledge in cultural studies that underneath this split between “popular” journalism and so-called “quality” journalism lies a gendered and ethnocentric concept of “jour- nalistic quality” and, the author adds, of citizenship. Partly as a reaction to the widely discussed media presentation of a “wave” of child murders, partly as a result of research commissioned by the Dutch PBS NOS Gender Portrayal Department, the author developed an alternative notion of “public” or “civic” quality. In this article, the author sheds some light on the possibility of incorporating “emotions,” “everyday life,” and a “relative sense of self” into a more inclusive concept of public quality, media, and citizenship. 855

COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. COMPUTER TRAINING. COMPUTER USE. Despite the column inches and policy statements dedicated to arguing that young people need to use computers, very little is known about the reasons why young peo- ple themselves might value and acquire computer expertise. Drawing on a survey of 855 children and 16 detailed case studies of children’s use of computers at home, this article explores the influence of software design, family discourses, peer group cul- ture, and gender identity on children’s perception of the potential uses and benefits of information and communications technology (ICT) expertise. The article argues that young people value and acquire computer expertise primarily in order to achieve prac- tical objectives and in relation to the construction of (gendered) peer group identities. Given these findings, the article questions the continued emphasis in educational pol- icy on the acquisition of decontextualized ICT skills within a rationale of future rele- vance to the workplace.

Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2001, pp. 153-2199. $125.00/$70.00 CONVERGENCE. DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. GLOBALIZATION. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. WORLD-SYSTEMS ANALYSIS. This essay reviews the arguments of the utopians and the dystopians on the ongo- ing Third Communication Revolution—the convergence of telecommunications, computers, and digitization—and makes the point that the state of capitalism stimu- lated by this revolution has left nations—small or big—with little option but to informatize so they could effectively compete in the world material economy. Because dependency theory offers no solution for these nations to escape from the quagmire of underdevelopment, a persuasive argument has surfaced to view the longi- tudinal “capitalist” dynamics of the world economy in nonideological terms. Global competition and interdependence reflect to some extent the end of the nation in the orthodox sense. One can reconfigure structural theory—the dependency-world sys- tem theory formulation—to reflect the emerging state of globalization. This essay uses an informatization model founded on the basicvariables of the old paradigm of modernization—urbanization, literacy, education, and media participation—to explain three essential variables denoting informatization—economic status, tele- phone density, and Internet host penetration. It also points out that the Human Devel- opment Index itself is based on related variables—literacy, education, health, and eco- nomic status. 856 Communication Abstracts

1933 Lal, K. Institutional environment and the development of information and communi- cation technology in India. The Information Society 17(2):105-117, April-June 2001. INDIA. INDUSTRIALIZATION. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. INSTITUTIONAL ENVIRONMENT. This article examines the impact of institutional environment on the growth of the Indian information technology (IT) industry. The study reveals that before the first generation of reforms, that is, 1991, the government was pursuing a structuralist approach toward economic development. After liberalization in 1991, the govern- ment embarked on pro-active economic policies for the diffusion and production of IT. Consequently, the IT industry experienced an unprecedented growth rate in domestic as well as export markets. However, foreign direct investment policies have not been successful in attracting the desired level of foreign investment, which is very important for a high-tech sector such as IT hardware manufacturing. The study sug- gests that immediate corrective measures need to be taken to augment the IT manufac- turing industry, which can significantly contribute to national economic development and employment generation.

DISCOURSE ANALYSIS. DISCOURSE STRATEGIES. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. SINGAPORE. The small nation-state of Singapore has increasingly been referred to in the popu- lar media as the Intelligent Island of the future. With significant state investment in the promotion and dissemination of information-communications technology and atten- dant social ramifications, this has become an area that can no longer be ignored or taken for granted. This article intends to map the conditions of possibility on which Singapore can be conceived of as an Intelligent Island, in situating the role of informa- tion technology and Intelligent Island discourse within the discourses of postcoloniality, technocapitalism, late modernity, and globalization. In particular, this article attempts to show how, in Intelligent Island discourse, the processes of the con- struction of a Singaporean nation are intricately linked to the shift in political dis- course from mobilizing a rhetoric of crisis to one of utopianism.

1935 Mejias, U. A. Sustainable communicational realities in the age of virtuality. Critical Studies in Media Communication 18(2):211-229, June 2001. COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. VIRTUAL REALITY. A communicational reality is a culturally specific conceptualization of social space constructed and shared by people through the act of communication. This arti- cle examines the role of technology in the construction of communicational realities, acknowledging that it is neither a neutral tool nor an autonomous agent in the process. The knowledge of how we use technology to engender communicational realities must contribute to the critical awareness of the individuals in relation to the world. This knowledge must ultimately allow us to disassociate communication from those technologizings that lead, through the creation of virtual realities, to the separation of the knower from the known. Only by taking a critical look at the assumptions that our Communication and Information Technology 857 communication technologies lead us to make about the world can we begin a process of reconceptualizing them away from their position as commodities to that of vehicles for self-knowledge and tools for understanding and transformation of the world. This article introduces the concept of the sustainable communicational reality as a way to assess the values promoted by different conceptualizations and applications of com- munication technologies to our societies.

This research report on a survey of teleworkers in Canada’s urban national capital region and in adjacent rural Lanark Country focuses on access to higher bandwidth, what teleworkers actually do, their tasks, and their home/office co-worker links that attempt to produce efficient geographies of changing perceptions of telework, the way organizations deal with teleworkers, added teleworker efficiency/effectiveness linked to higher bandwidth, the potential power of “elite” teleworkers, and seasonal teleworkers operating in two (rural and urban) residents. It also notes the impacts of the survey project on stakeholders such as teleworkers themselves and the private sec- tor, and on local, provincial, and federal government information highway/smart communities policy.

DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY. The first part of this book examines the frames and mind and ways of thinking from which digital technology arose, and the conditions that made it desirable. The second part is concerned with the effects of digital technology within art and culture. Chapters look at how digital technology has been integrated into the production, pres- ervation, exhibition, and reproduction of art, and changes in the notion of “art” itself, and explores the implications of digital artwork’s lack of physicality, tracing its links to the physical world. The third part builds on the second part and broadens its scope out from art to include all other forms of communication and media, and looks at how digital technology has been positioned among them. The final part extends the scope of the previous chapters to include the activities through which individuals perceive and understand the world around them.

1938 Wolfe, M. Metadata, knowledge management, and communications. Canadian Jour- nal of Communication 25(4):539-552, Autumn 2000. COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. INTERNET. ONLINE RESEARCH. The increased volume and complexity of information available via the Internet and other networked information and communication systems have heightened the need for more efficient and effective ways of searching online resources. Technol- ogies involving automated and human-operated software continue to evolve in meet- ing these needs, but process and standardization remain key problems in determining 858 Communication Abstracts who will do the work and how data and software programming should be structured to maximize the effort. The problem is exacerbated by database and search tool custom- ization, as a widening range of organizations attempts to adapt the “metadata” tech- nologies and approaches to unique information environments and resources. This paper overviews metadata in its current application and development as an Internet technology, and points to its relevance by communications—a field that has yet to embrace the movement thematically.

Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2001, pp. 79-113. $125.00/$70.00 COGNITIVE PROCESSES. COMMUNICATION RESEARCH HYPERMEDIA. WORLD WIDE WEB. This article situates the technological and historical origins of the World Wide Web in hypermedia systems that were conceptualized during the World War II era and first developed decades before the Web. The article then reviews the cross-disciplin- ary literature on hypermedia, which has developed over the past decade or so in educa- tion and educational technology, computer science, library and information science, psychology, and even geography. This review begins with a summary of underlying theory relevant to hypermedia, then focuses on the existing research on both the uses and effects of hypermedia. The article discusses how the theory and research on hypermedia may or may not be extended to apply to the uses and effects of the Web. Finally, the implications of hypermedia theory and research, and its connections to traditional communication uses and effects research, are identified to provide sugges- tions for future research on the Web in communication.

1940 McClung, S. College radio web sites: perceptions of value and use. Journalism & Mass Communication Educator 56(1):62-73, Spring 2001. RADIO STATIONS. USES AND GRATIFICATIONS. WEB SITES. This baseline, exploratory study was an online-based survey, and the sample was self-selecting. Although generalizability is a difficult issue in this method of sam- pling, this study does provide a starting point for examining the reasons people use college radio sites. Invitations were sent out via e-mail on four listervs, and 185 sta- tions were contacted individually from online college radio lists. A total of 26 stations participated in the study. The survey icon remained on the main pages of these sites for six weeks. A total of 586 completed user surveys were collected. The author found that this study, as many media uses and gratifications studies before it. indicates that people do have specific uses for college radio station Web sites. Like previous studies on traditional media Web sites, this study indicates most audiences’ use of college radio sites are entertainment-oriented. However, for the first time, there is an indica- tion that people use media-based Web sites for the social integration function. Telecommunications 859

Political Com- munication 18(2):141-162, April/June 2001. AGE DIFFERENCES. INTERNET USE. SOCIAL CAPITAL. This article explores the relationship between Internet use and the individual-level production of social capital. To do so, the authors adopt a motivational perspective to distinguish among types of Internet use when examining the factors predicting civic engagement, interpersonal trust, and life contentment. The predictive power of new media use is then analyzed relative to key demographic, contextual, and traditional media use variables using the 1999 DDB Life Style Study. Although the size of asso- ciations is generally small, the data suggest that informational uses of the Internet are positively related to individual differences in the product of social capital, whereas social-recreational uses are negatively related to these civic indicators. Analyses within subsamples defined by generational age breaks further suggest that social capi- tal production is related to Internet use among Generation X, whereas it is tied to tele- vision use among Baby Boomers and newspaper use among members of the Civic Generation. The possibility of life cycle and cohorts effect is discussed.

Journal of Communication 51(2):231-251, June 2001. COMPUTER-MEDIATED COMMUNICATION. ONLINE COMMUNICATION. ONLINE USERS. This study investigates the complementary nature of face-to-face and com- puter-mediated social support and the development of a context through which hyperpersonal communication can develop within online communities. Optimal matching theory is used as a framework for explaining how hyperpersonal communi- cation develops within online cancer support communities. The authors compared online participants’ perceptions of illness support from the list with the support they received from a nonmediated relationship. Respondents participated more within the online community only when they perceived that the depth and support that they received from the online community was high, and when the depth and support they received from the specific person in their life was low.

TELECOMMUNICATIONS REFORM. TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES. TURKEY. The privatization and liberalization of telecommunications services have been debated and pursued with varying speed and success by countries throughout the world. In Turkey, efforts to privatize Turk Telekom and liberalize the telecommunica- tions regime have not yet been successful. At the same time, the Internet has experi- enced dramatic growth. Although the experience of Turkey illustrates that formal lib- eralization of basic telecommunications services is not a necessary condition for the growth of a dynamicInternet servicesprovision market, the relationship between the 860 Communication Abstracts

Internet service providers and the provider of basic telecommunications services remains a critical one. Turk Telekom and policymakers have permitted the creation of a de facto liberal market for Internet services, have supported the creation of Internet infrastructure, and have established a rather level playing field for Internet service providers.

1944 Best, J. Damned lies and statistics: untangling numbers from the media, politicians, and activists. Berkeley, CA: University of California Press, 2001, 199 pp. $19.95 ADVOCACY. DECEPTION. MEDIA CONTENT. MEDIA EFFECTS. POLITICS. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS. Does the number of children gunned down double each year? Does anorexia kill 150,000 young women annually? Do white males account for only a sixth of new workers? Startling statistics shape our thinking about social issues. But, all too often, these numbers are wrong. This book is a guide to spotting bad statistics and learning to think critically about these influential numbers. The author bases his discussions on a wide assortment of contemporary issues that have garnered much recent media atten- tion, including abortion, cyberporn, homelessness, and the Million Man March, teen suicide, the U.S. census, and more. Using examples from major newspapers and tele- vision programs, he unravels many examples of the use, misuse, and abuse of statisti- cal information. The author shows how and why bad statistics emerge, spread, and come to shape policy debates. He recommends specific ways to detect bad statistics, and shows how to think more critically about “stat wars,” or disputes over social statis- tics among various experts.

For 30 years, good fortune has enabled the researchers to contribute to the devel- opment of symbolic convergence theory (SCT). SCT is a general theory of communi- cation that helps explain broad aspects of interpersonal, small group, public, organi- zational, mass, and intercultural communication. SCT explains the communicative force of fantasy-sharing on human action as stemming from its ability to forge a sym- bolic consciousness that is constitutive of reality. In this chapter, the authors first depict SCT’s heuristic value. Next, they highlight its historical development and grounding research. Then, they set out its anatomical elements, providing a clear view of the relationship among its 18 technical concepts. Specifically, they highlight its basic, message, dynamic, communicator, medium, and evaluative concepts. Then, they depict its utility by describing its use in solving real-world problems ranging from physician recruitment to relationship building to creating a new corporate iden- tity and culture. Thereupon, they synthesize the answers to its major criticisms. Finally, they discuss potential avenues for future research and development. They highlight the need for researchers to develop a propensity to fantasize scale and work toward the unification of the force of fantasy and the other communicative forces.

There is an increasing appreciation of the intertwined nature of fields such as logic, linguistics, and computer science. One of the interlinking themes of these fields is the nature of information and the way it is processed. This collection gathers together diverse works from a number of disciplines, each focused around an informa- tion-oriented approach. Several of the papers contribute toward a general theory of information, whereas others tackle specific problems, from artificial intelligence, for- mal semantics, cognitive psychology, and the philosophy of the mind. Some of the contributions focus on the dynamics of information-flow, whereas others consider static approaches to information content; both quantitative and qualitative approaches are represented.

1937 Craig, R. T. Minding my metamodel, mending Myers. Communication Theory 11(2):231-240, May 2001. COMMUNICATION THEORY. RESEARCH TRENDS. The author of this essay is responding to criticism of a previous essay of his that appeared in this journal in 1999. The criticism of the 1999 article is by Myers and appears in the same issue of the journal. The author’s purpose for his original essay, he claims, was to get a conversation going in the field of communication theory. In that spirit, the author says he can only welcome the critical reply as an invitation to con- tinue the dialogue. David Myers, the author of the criticism, offers two main points. First, he charges that the author misrepresents the constitutive metamodel by claiming (falsely and inconsistently, according to Craig) that it is something other than a first-order constitutive model of communication. Second, Myers argues that Craig’s proposal will not prevent the continued proliferation of communication theories because it provides no truth criterion sufficient to adjudicate among competing theo- ries. Neither criticism directly addresses what Craig takes to be the key issue that underlies both, which has to do with our respective notions of truth and the proper role of empirical truth as a criterion for adjudicating among theories. Craig replies to each of the two criticisms in this essay.

1938 Depew, D. The new philosophy of science and its lessons. Argumentation 15(1):9-20, February 2001. PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE. SCIENTIFIC ARGUMENTATION. Most recent philosophers of science have for some time been hard at work replac- ing the covering law picture of explanation and the received account of theories that stands behind it. In this essay, the author singles out four proposed changes for further attention. First, with respect to what is to be explained, the author draws attention to the proposal of Woodward and Bogen that it is phenomena, rather than bare data, that constitute the explananda of science. This means that there is no requirement on an explanatory law or a theory that from it one should be able to deduce, and thereby pre- dict or retrodict, every piece of relevant data. This leads to a second theme. Phenom- ena, sensu Woodward and Bogen, are explained when models of kinds of systems, 862 Communication Abstracts rather than “bridge laws,” are used to connect phenomena and theories. The third theme is the role of metaphor in science. Finally, the fourth theme springs from the fact that explanation by metaphorical transference is unimaginable apart from certain value-laden preconceptions brought to the scene of inquiry by the inquirer or the inter- pretive community.

This volume continues the tradition of publishing critical, integrative, state-of-the-art reviews of specific lines of research. In addition, this volume includes two senior scholars’review of their lines of theory and research. Each chapter makes a contribution to the field, yet several of the chapters contain concepts that can be linked with each other—the role of communication in culturally diverse work groups, hear- ers’ evaluations of speakers, and the study of ethics in the future. The book contains the following 10 chapters: Democracy and New Communication Technologies; The Federal Communications Commission and the Communication Policymaking Pro- cess: Theoretical Perspectives and Recommendations for Future Research; Applying Research on the Uses and Cognitive Effects of Hypermedia to the Study of the World Wide Web; Mediation of Children’s Television Viewing: Working Toward Concep- tual Clarity and Common Understanding; Convergence: Informatization, World Sys- tem, and Developing Countries; Communication Ethics: Centrality, Trends, and Con- troversies; Investigating the Role of Communication in Culturally Diverse Work Groups: A Review and Synthesis; Three Decades of Developing, Grounding, and Using SymbolicConvergenceTheory; Mental Imagery and Intrapersonal Communi- cation: A Review of Research on Imagined Interactions (IIs) and Current Develop- ments; and Attitudes Toward Language: A Review of Speaker-Evaluation Research and a General Process Model.

1950 Haskins, E. V. Rhetoricbetween orality and literacy:culturalmemory and perfor - mance in Isocrates and Aristotle. Quarterly Journal of Speech 87(2):158-179, May 2001. ARISTOTLE. CULTURAL STUDIES. ISOCRATES. RHETORIC. This essay argues for a reconsideration of the role of the “literate resolution” in the disciplining of rhetorical practice in the 4th century B.C. Specifically, the argument addresses the tension between oral memory and literate rationality and Aristotle to illustrate two divergent possibilities of appropriate oral linguistic resources of a cul- ture. Aristotle’s literature classification of “endoxa” (received opinions) and “pisteis” (proofs), depoliticizes the oral utterances and maxims of contemporary Greek culture, thereby rendering discourse a mere accessory of a political agent. By contrast, Isocrates conceives of rhetorical performance as constitutive of political agency and civic identity. Communication Theory and Research 863

1951 Hintikka, J. Is logicthe key to all good reasoning? Argumentation 15(1):35-57, Feb - ruary 2001. ARGUMENTATION. LOGIC. RATIONALITY. The author diagnoses the deficiency of current methods of teaching reasoning by appealing to his distinction between definitory and strategic rules. In his analogy to chess, “You can’t castle once you’ve moved your king” is a definitory rule, whereas “Avoid having isolate pawns” is a strategicrule. His referencesto Aristotle show that logichas not always been the study of definitory rules and the avoidanceof error. The author’s stress on modeling fits in interesting ways with another author in this jour- nal’s quite different discussion of models, and the discussion of the role of metaphor. The distinction between definitory and strategic rules uncovers a further dogma of the received view in addition to those discussed in earlier papers, the idea that reasoning is built up from elements, and if we secure the validity of these elements, our molecular reasonings will be beyond reproach. Logic, even deductive logic, becomes an inter- esting and practical field of study when it is seen as a special part of the general project of inquiry. A sign of the novelty and importance of his contribution is his claim that deductive logic becomes in his hands an instrument for discovery rather than justification.

The centrality of ethics, both theoretically and professionally, to the field of com- munication is demonstrated in this chapter. Then, seven trends in communication eth- ics scholarship are illustrated. They are the following: (1) the proliferation of books on media and journalism ethics; (2) stress both on individual ethics and on social or insti- tutional ethics; (3) recognition of the interrelationship of freedom and responsibility; (4) scholarship on ethics in organizational communication contexts; (5) diverse femi- nist contributions to communication ethics; (6) scholarship from a feminist viewpoint on an “ethic of care”; and (7) applications of the ancient Greek tradition of virtue eth- ics to contemporary communication contexts. Finally, six controversies or chal- lenges in the development of communication ethics are probed. They are the follow- ing: (1) Can we develop a viable concept of the “self” as an ethical agent in communi- cation? (2) Can we develop a postmodern ethic or ethics of communication? (3) Can we legitimately search for some minimum transcultural ethical standards for commu- nication? (4) Can we recognize the roles that diversity and marginalization play in developing communication ethics? (5) Can we develop a viable communication ethic for the Internet and cyberspace? and (6) Can some conception of shame be legitimate for communication ethics? 864 Communication Abstracts

1953 Murray, J. W. Toward a post-Habermasian discourse ethics: the acknowledgement of the other. New Jersey Journal of Communication 9(1):1-19, Spring 2001. COMMUNICATION ETHICS. JÜRGEN HABERMAS. A significant attempt to recover ethics within the post-Nietzschean and post-Holo- caust era has been Jürgen Habermas’s articulation of a “post-conventional discourse ethics.” Habermas’s work is of particular interest to the field of communication stud- ies because it attempts to ground ethics in the universal and necessary presuppositions of argumentation. Yet there have been numerous challenges to Habermas’s discourse ethics, including the charge of ethnocentrism. This essay implements Levinas’s phi- losophy of ethics in order to articulate three specific objections to Habermas’s dis- course ethics and to amend Habermas’s project of identifying the necessary precondi- tions of ethical communication. Specifically, Levinas’s conception of ethical obligation as originating in the call of the Other identifies the acknowledgement of the Other as the one necessary precondition of discourse, and provides a phenomenological account of the nature of that precondition as ethical. Conse- quently, Levinas revitalizes the on-going conversation concerning Habermas’s dis- course ethics as a viable and practical solution to the postmodern crisis of ethics.

1954 Myers, D. A pox on all compromises: reply to Craig (1999). Communication Theory 11(2):218-230, May 2001. COMMUNICATION RESEARCH. COMMUNICATION THEORY. RESEARCH TRENDS. This paper is a response to an essay by Robert T. Craig in this journal in 1999. Craig wrote about communication theory as a field and put communication theory alongside his notion of the “art” of rhetoric—a social practice appealing to or making out common and public knowledge. Communication theory of this sort would create “a space for theoretical metadiscourse,” and this space for theoretical metadiscourse would then “engage . . . with practical metadiscourse on questions of communication as a social practice.” The author claims these notions don’t make much sense. Though Craig describes real problems and proposes worthy goals, the author of this essay argues, the strategy he offers to overcome those problems and achieve those goals is misrepresented and misguided—simply wrongheaded. In this essay, the author details two reason for this. The first is found in Craig’s argument and the inconsisten- cies it entails. He misrepresents his position. The second is a brief example, based on recent research and theory concerning computer-mediated communications, of how problems inevitably result from the lack (whether real or imagined) of truth.

RESEARCH TRENDS. Sometimes referred to as the new genetics, biotechnology is revolutionizing both agriculture and medicine. Some of biotechnology’s most dramatically envisioned applications cross the boundary between agriculture and medicine—as when a domesticated farm animal such as a sheep is genetically engineered to produce human medicine in its milk and then cloned for mass production—not to mention boundaries among biological species. This book looks primarily at the agricultural side of this Communication Theory and Research 865 revolution and is concerned with how information about these technologies interacts with our social structure (especially the structure of our mass media) and our cultural psychological structure in ways that cause some issues to be highlighted and others to fade from view, thereby influencing the public agenda.

1956 Reed, D. Classification in mathematics and biology: some recent trends. Argumenta- tion 15(1):59-66, February 2001. BIOLOGY. KNOWLEDGE. MATHEMATICS. RESEARCH TRENDS. SCIENTIFIC ARGUMENTATION. TAXONOMY. The author, a working mathematician, challenges one feature of the conventional view, the “top-down” version of science in which to know is to be able to classify, and the growth of knowledge consists in applying a classification to a case at hand. The author presents two case studies in which, as he puts it, classification seems not to reflect accumulated knowledge, but a combination of knowledge and ignorance. The case studies show the inadequacy of understandings of science that distinguish between governing universal laws and ultimately obedient examples. The lack of uni- versal rules is in no way a threatening invitation to irrationality in mathematics and biology; instead it redefines how we do research.

1957 Solomon, M. It isn’t the thought that counts. Argumentation 15(1):67-75, February 2001. ARGUMENTATION. RESEARCH TRENDS. SCIENCE. SCIENCE EDUCATION. The author shows that the conventional teaching of reasoning depends on an indi- vidualism that becomes rational as it excludes social factors. She uses cases studies from geophysics and genetics to suggest that scientific success does not and cannot come from the avoidance of error, and that information processing other than individ- ual thought processes can be conducive to scientific success. Her paper poses a chal- lenge for teachers—is the individualism embodied in the practices a function of what teachers think about reasoning, or does it come from other sorts of demands, such as the need to give grades? The author shows how the absence of a firm demarcation cri- terion for the rational enriches the understanding of science as an activity, instead of threatening to destroy rationality altogether.

1958 Wright, L. Justification, discovery, reason and argument. Argumentation 15(1):97-104, February 2001. ARGUMENTATION. JUSTIFICATION. PHILOSOPHY. RATIONALITY. The author challenges conventional wisdom by asking whether teachers can afford in their analysis of philosophic argument to be ahistorical because—and to the extent that—they rely on a distinction between contexts of discovery and of justifica- tion. In distinguishing justification from discovery, the author notes, the logical empiricists hoped to avoid confusing causal matters with normative ones. The author shows, though, how exaggerating the virtue of this distinction has disguised important features of the concept of a reason, which inherently involves valuation, as it functions in human practice. Bringing to the surface those features gives some insight into rea- soning and argument. Taking those features seriously has large consequences for 866 Communication Abstracts philosophy and its teaching. Instead of clinging to the reasons/causes distinction through fear of irrationality that would follow from its being abandoned, the author shows how our understanding of reasoning is enriched by more subtle relations between reasons and causes.

1959 Wright, M. H. Gestalt psychological theory’s value in rhetorical criticism. Quarterly Journal of Speech 87(2):208-215, May 2001. KENNETH BURKE. GESTALT PSYCHOLOGY. PSYCHOLOGICAL THEORY. RHETORICAL ANALYSIS. RHETORICAL CRITICISM. Rhetorical critics should avoid affirming the constancy hypothesis, the belief that a stimulus contains the response. After foregrounding Burke’s avoidance of the con- stancy hypothesis in Permanence andChange as a model for rhetorical critics, this essay examines five examples of affirmation of the constancy hypothesis in rhetorical criticism. Affirming the hypothesis oversimplifies complex audience dynamics and prevents critics from understanding infrequent, more unified audience responses. The author concludes that affirmation of the constancy hypothesis remains a possibility in contemporary rhetorical criticism. Critics should guard against affirming the hypoth- esis, since it will lead them to derive the audience reaction directly from features of the text. Such a move vastly oversimplifies complex audience reactions and dynamics. Not only are critics less likely to come to grips with complex audience reactions and dynamics, they will be less likely to account for those situations wherein there is evi- dence the audience did become unusually unified.

The findings of the research focus on two types of nostalgic behavior, which are identified as existential and aesthetic. Differences in the nostalgic reactions are conceptualized in relation to such factors as the quantity and quality of the individual’s role repertoire, the experi- ence of alienation in the present, and the extent and quality of social contact.

Some of the ways in which the experience of mothering is shaped by the moral and cultural constructions surrounding the breast-feeding discourse are examined using a critical deconstruction of recent Canadian health education material. Connections between the understandings surrounding breast-feeding discourse and a number of other social discourses, including these surrounding child-centered parenting exper- tise, the remoralization of pregnancy, and the neoliberal preoccupation with individ- ual responsibility and the cost of social programs, are examined. 868 Communication Abstracts

The first hundred days of the new Russian government, headed by President Putin, have supposed a certain loss of those democratic advances that were achieved by mass media during Yeltsin’s era. Since the arrival of Putin, the pressure on different private communication means has been reinforced. This pressure is carried through political and economic control of the owners of mass media and through the imposition of administrative obstacles for newspapers or broadcasting stations that are in some way reluctant to follow the instructions proceeding from the restructured Press Ministry.

The rise of the Internet as a primary means of corporate communication has led to two parallel developments—the profusion of competing firms that exist virtually, and the proliferation of visuals by these firms. Given this, the paper argues why firms ought to review their corporate identity, especially in terms of design. This argument is illustrated by empirically appraising the e-logos of firms drawn from the informa- tion technology industry. It was found that perceived attractiveness of a corporate e-logo is associated with greater complexity and with greater use of symbols rather than just more letters, but not with more use of color.

1968 Seeger, M. W. and Ulmer, R. R. Virtuous responses to organizational crisis: Aaron Feuerstein and Milt Cole. Journal of 31(4):369-376, June (II) 2001. CRISIS MANAGEMENT. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. PROFESSIONAL ETHICS. This study examines two recent cases of ethical responses to crisis manage- ment—the 1995 fire at Malden Mills and Aaron Feuerstein’s response, and a 1998 fire at Cole Hardwoods, followed by the response of CEO Milt Cole. What emerges is a set of post-crisis virtues grounded in values of corporate social responsibility and entrepreneurial ethics. These include virtues of immediacy of response, supportive- ness of victims, and rebuilding and renewal.

1969 Weber, J. A. Illusions of marketing planners. Psychology & Marketing 18(6):527-563, June 2001. MARKETING RESEARCH. MARKETING STRATEGIES. This article highlights the risk of using self-evaluation as a substitute for primary and secondary market research when designing and monitoring marketing programs. Included is a study of 110 management teams that suggests internally dominated mar- keting analysis may breed illusory evaluations of a company’s own marketing pro- grams versus competitors.

1970 Woodside, A. G. and Chebat, J.-C. Updating Heider’s balance theory in consumer be- havior: a Jewish couple buys a German car and additional buying-consuming trans- formation stories. Psychology & Marketing 18(5):475-495, May 2001. BALANCE THEORY. CONSUMER BEHAVIOR. ETHNIC RELATIONS. STORYTELLING. This article updates Heider’s balance theory in consumer behavior by developing the theory’s links to theories of perceptual, attitudinal, and behavior automaticity and controlled thinking and cognitive-experiential self-theory. Propositions central for applying balance theory to consumer psychology link automatic-controlled memory retrievals and storytelling of unbalanced (i.e., paradoxical) situations that stimulate further thinking and action. Research using storytelling methods aids in examining these theory developments empirically.

1971 Yoon, S.-J. and Kim, J.-H. The effects of perceived consumer characteristics on the choice and use of Internet ads. Journal of Brand Management 8(4/5):346-364, May 2001. ADVERTISING EFFECT. CONSUMER CHARACTERISTICS. INTERNET ADVERTISING. TELEVISION ADVERTISING. This study aims to accomplish two major research objectives—to discover the major motives for using Internet ads in conjunction with traditional media, and to determine consumer characteristics affecting the choice of media. The results suggest that the Internet is better suited for highly involved and rationally oriented consumers, and that it is used more for high-involvement products than for the low-involvement ones. However, television remains the most used advertising medium for all product categories studied in this paper. 870 Communication Abstracts

1972 Bringue, X. Child advertising and persuasive strategy: An analysis of contents. Zer 10:107-130, May 2001. CHILDREN AND ADVERTISING. CONTENT ANALYSIS. PERSUASION. This work analyzes children’s dimension as infant consumers and their definition as a specific target for advertising campaigns. As an introduction, the limits of adver- tising communication for children are exposed, ranging from the nature of the recipi- ent to children’s behavior facing the media and the facts involved in this communica- tion process. The second part focuses on the study of an ad sample, considered to be advertising for children. It tries to establish a classification of the persuasive strategies in these messages, with special attention to the formats and the main persuasive argu- ments offered to children. The article finishes with some brief conclusions on the results.

1973 Chen, S. Assessing the impact of the Internet on brands. Journal of Brand Manage- ment 8(4/5):288-302, May 2001. BRAND MANAGEMENT. ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. INTERNET. This paper assesses the claim that e-commerce will spell the end of brand manage- ment as we know it. Evidence from market studies is reviewed, and the paper identi- fies some key factors that make this scenario unlikely.

1974 Chun, R. and Davies, G. E-reputation: the role of mission and vision statements in po- sitioning strategy. Journal of Brand Management 8(4/5):315-333, May 2001. CORPORATE ADVERTISING. CORPORATE REPUTATION. ELECTRONIC COMMERCE. WEB SITES. This study is concerned with the reputation-building potential of corporate Web sites. Claims have been made that companies are positioning themselves on the Internet by including mission and vision statements with their Web sites. Although many companies appear to be positioning themselves against “competence,” the results show substantial differences between companies competing in the same sec- tors as well as differences between the profile of leading companies across sectors.

1975 Clauser, R. C. Offline rules, online tools. Journal of Brand Management 8(4/5):270-287, May 2001. BRAND PROMOTION. MARKETING STRATEGIES. ONLINE USE. The fundamental rules of brand building have not changed. Business should stick to the traditional tried and true rules of branding while using the new technology and strategictools now possible with the Internet. Follow them carefullyand break them cautiously. This argument is explored in relation to five offline rules and their online applications. These rules focus on brand names, consistency, customer insight, emo- tional connection, and brand experience. Briefly Noted 871

1976 Hopkinson, G. C. Influence in marketing channels: a sense-making investigation. Psychology & Marketing 18(5):423-444, May 2001. MARKETING STRATEGIES. ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION. SENSE MAKING. This article compares cognitivist and constructionist approaches to organizational sense making. Following constructionist theory, linguistic analysis is applied to two narratives told by car dealers. The stories are about one incident in their marketing network. The narrative interpretation relates the degree of influence each narrator seeks to the way each makes sense of the network and constructs the network in his story.

1977 Mason, K., et al. The accuracy of brand and attribute judgments: the role of informa- tion relevancy, product experience, and attribute-relationship schemata. Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science 29(3):307-317, Summer 2001. BRAND ATTRIBUTES. BRAND RESEARCH. CONSUMER PERCEPTION. A multidimensional approach for accuracy of ratings is introduced that examines consumers’ abilities to assess various brands across a set of attributes and attribute performances across a set of brands. A model is presented that addresses the roles of the relevancy of information, attribute-relationship schemata, and consumers’ prod- uct category experience on the accuracy of brand attribute ratings. The results indicate that the provision of relevant information in the judgment environment increases brand and attribute rating accuracy but does not favorably affect consumers’ brand attribute-relationship schemata.

1978 Nakata, C. and Sivakumar, K. Instituting the marketing concept in a multinational set- ting: the role of national culture. Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science 29(3):255-275, Summer 2001. CULTURAL DIFFERENCES. MARKETING RESEARCH. NATIONAL CULTURE. TRANSNATIONAL CORPORATIONS. A growing concern among international marketing managers is how to increase the market orientation and thereby performance of their transnational organizations. This study broaches the issue by investigating how the marketing concept, the heart of the market orientation, may be established in a multinational setting and the effects of national culture on that process. The findings suggest that the process consists of com- plex, interdependent steps—interpretation, adoption, and implementation of the mar- keting concept.

1979 Rosa, J. A. Embodied-concept use in sense making by marketing managers. Psychol- ogy & Marketing 18(5):445-474, May 2001. CONTENT ANALYSIS. MARKETING STRATEGIES. SENSEMAKING. Content analyses of text data and experimental methods were used in two studies that investigated the use of embodied concepts in sense making by marketing manag- ers, and the influence that environmental and dispositional factors have on such usage. Results showed that embodied-concept use is common among marketing managers, 872 Communication Abstracts and that it is influenced by dispositional factors (cognitive-processing preferences) and environmental factors (managerially controlled cues).

1981 Idoyaga, P. and Ramirex, T. Informative policy of El Pais and ABC towards the new political reality in the Basque Country. Zer 10:257-280, May 2001. ABC (SPANISH NEWSPAPER). BASQUE REGION. EL PAIS. NEWSPAPER COVERAGE. SPAIN. The article summarizes research carried out during the last two years on the atti- tude adopted by the main Spanish newspapers, El Pais and ABC, regarding the com- plex political process in the Basque Country. A 20-month period was analyzed, start- ing in September 1998, the date of the announcement by the Basque armed organization ETA of a “one sided and indefinite cease-fire” until May 2000, just after the general elections to the Spanish Government. Both newspapers contributed to the characterization of the Basque conflict as a “reason of state” of the government of Madrid. They adopted the theory of “media antiterrorism,” without taking into account the letter and the spirit of what professional ethics codes say all over the world.

When a photographer uses a dark camera he or she has made an important decision that will spread his or her influence over visual communication. With the dark camera there is no other way but to go to the origin, that is, to the reality, and change it, if we want to change the image to be taken. This origin is the light that takes direct part in the formation of the image, to the point that, it can be said, the light is the image. 874
