37 Association for University Regional Campuses of Ohio AURCO Journal
37 Association for University Regional Campuses of Ohio Developing Allophilia through Service Learning: A Case Study of Nursing Students at a University’s Regional Campus Karen M. Brown Miami Middletown Allophilia, the love for others who differ from oneself, developed among students who took service-learning courses working with elders with dementia and/or physical limitations. At the beginning of the course, students expressed negative emotions including apprehension, fear, and dread. While working with the elders, students exhibited all of the components of the allophilia framework: affection, engagement, kinship, comfort, enthusiasm, and creativity. By the end of the course, students communicated positive emotions such as empathy, meaningful, and “life- changing.” Moreover, students’ self-evaluations showed high levels of learning as a result of the service-learning approach used. This article discusses the course approach, planning, and design. Additionally, the author conveys the evidence of allophilia and its impact on students and their learning. Finally, the article explores potential future research and implications for professional practice in diverse career paths. Foundationally, caring for all persons is an imperative in many professions, including nursing (Watson, 2009). However, many college students feel intolerance toward others due to such factors as differing race, ethnicity, gender, religion, and age (Alvosed, Long, & Voller, 2009). As a result, educators must incorporate professional values such as caring and compassion into the teaching-learning experience to engender and develop these ideals (Cook & Cullen, 2003). The end result may erase prejudice and stigma while producing professionals who exhibit a genuine love for others: allophilia. Allophilia literally translates to “love of other” (Pittinsky, 2009; Pittinsky, Bacon, & Gary, 2007; Pittinsky, Rosenthal, & Montoya, 2011). -

Microaggressions: Clarification, Evidence, and Impact

Williams School of Psychology, University of Ottawa Abstract In a 2017 article in Perspectives on Psychological Science, Scott Lilienfeld critiqued the conceptual basis for microaggressions as well as the scientific rigor of scholarship on the topic. The current article provides a response that systematically analyzes the arguments and representations made in Lilienfeld’s critique with regard to the concept of microaggressions and the state of the related research. I show that, in contrast to the claim that the concept of microaggressions is vague and inconsistent, the term is well defined and can be decisively linked to individual prejudice in offenders and mental-health outcomes in targets. I explain how the concept of microaggressions is connected to pathological stereotypes, power structures, structural racism, and multiple forms of racial prejudice. Also described are recent research advances that address some of Lilienfeld’s original critiques. Further, this article highlights potentially problematic attitudes, assumptions, and approaches embedded in Lilienfeld’s analysis that are common to the field of psychology as a whole. It is important for all academics to acknowledge and question their own biases and perspectives when conducting scientific research.

A Preliminary Panel Data Study About the Progress of Media Richness
ISSN 1816-6075 (Print), 1818-0523 (Online) Journal of System and Management Sciences Vol. 3 (2013) No. 4, pp. 16-21 A preliminary panel data study about the progress of media richness Vicenc Fernandez1, Pep Simo1, Jose M Sallan1, Irene Trullas1 1 Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Colom 11, TR6-3.17, Terrassa, Spain [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: The selection and use of communication media has been the center of attention for a great number of scholars in the area of organizational communication for its importance in the attainment of organizational objectives. This paper presents the results of a preliminary research in order to establish a framework where to analyse the progress of communication media richness. With this aim, the paper presents an experimental study on several online discussion forums with data panels. The results suggest time factor is essential to understand the evolution of media richness. Keywords: Channel Expansion Theory, Panel Data, Media Richness 1. Introduction The selection and use of communication media has, for decades, been the center of attention for a great number of scholars in the area of organizational communication. Nevertheless, an agreed theory does not exist on the selection and the use of such media, but rather the opposite. The channel expansion theory combines elements of media richness theory with certain characteristics of influence and social presence theories. However, investigations about this theory have a static cross-sectional design, a snapshot of channel expansion theory rather than a longitudinal analysis, which allows for the evolution of media richness to be observed over time. -
Theory of Robot Communication: I
Hoorn, J. F. (2018). Theory of robot communication: I. The medium is the communication partner. arXiv:cs, 2502565(v1), 1-21. 1 Theory of Robot Communication: I. The Medium is the Communication Partner Johan F. Hoorn1,2 1 Department of Computing and School of Design, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, 999077, Hong Kong. 2 Department of Communication Science, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, 1081 HV, The Netherlands. Correspondence should be addressed to Johan F. Hoorn; [email protected] Abstract When people use electronic media for their communication, Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) theories describe the social and communicative aspects of people’s interpersonal transactions. When people interact via a remote-controlled robot, many of the CMC theses hold. Yet, what if people communicate with a conversation robot that is (partly) autonomous? Do the same theories apply? This paper discusses CMC theories in confrontation with observations and research data gained from human-robot communication. As a result, I argue for an addition to CMC theorizing when the robot as a medium itself becomes the communication partner. In view of the rise of social robots in coming years, I define the theoretical precepts of a possible next step in CMC, which I elaborate in a second paper. Introduction Currently, the development and application of social robots in real-life settings rapidly increases. Whereas robots initially were the domain of science-fiction, today, social robots are tried out in service-oriented professions in healthcare, education, and commerce (Broadbent, 2017). Habitually, general-purpose robots are readied for a particular task in a particular environment such as guidance through an exhibition or reception in a hotel (Broadbent, 2017). -

One theory of prejudice that may help to predict outcomes is sociocultural theory (Ashmore & Del Boca, 1981), which posits that social identities provide norms and values that promote cultural stereotypes. Strong social identities such as religion or political orientation may differentially promote outgroup stereotyping and prejudice. -
