University of Kentucky Master's Theses. 155. https://uknowledge.uky.edu/gradschool_theses/155 This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Graduate School at UKnowledge. It has been accepted for inclusion in University of Kentucky Master's Theses by an authorized administrator of UKnowledge. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT OF THESIS “WHAT’S HAPPENING” @TWITTER: A USES AND GRATIFICATIONS APPROACH The uses and gratifications approach places power in the hands of the audience and is a helpful perspective when trying to understand media usage, exposure, and effects. However, while the uses and gratifications approach has been applied regularly to traditional media, research explaining why people use new social media networks as well as the gratifications they obtain from them is scarce at best. This thesis provides a comprehensive overview of the uses and gratifications approach as well as the current literature about social media networks. An argument is built within the thesis to study Twitter as one social media network through the uses and gratifications theoretical lens. Research questions are provided and a survey of 216 college undergraduates was conducted. Results show that people use a variety of Twitter functions, that the gratifications sought from Twitter are not the gratifications obtained from Twitter, and that people are careful about the types of information they share on the social media network.

While there remains much to do to get there, it’s clear the time for action is now. In the last four years, the government outlined our country’s first National HIV/AIDS Strategy and expanded access to care through the Affordable Care Act. New research has shown that early treatment not only extends the life of those infected, but can also reduce transmissibility by 96%. We’ve seen the FDA approve a single daily pill for populations at high risk for HIV infection, as well as the introduction of the care continuum, which offers new ways of effectively targeting resources around those most in need. We know more—and have more—at our disposal than I ever could have dreamt of 23 years ago when I was first diagnosed HIV-positive. Yet the challenges we face remain clear: Of the more than 1.1 million people estimated to be living with HIV in the United States, l 18% don’t know their status l 34% haven’t seen an HIV doctor l 63% don’t regularly see their doctor, and l 75% aren’t virally suppressed.

  • NECROMARKETING in the MEDIA and MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS Łukasz P
    Social Communication 15 Volume 1, Issue 2 (2015), pp. 15-29 DOI: 10.1515/sc-2015-0007 NECROMARKETING IN THE MEDIA AND MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS Łukasz P. Wojciechowski, 1 Viktória Babjaková Abstract Death is an inseparable part of life. This paradoxical statement expresses the inevitability that each individual will encounter death. The demise of human existence is often stereotyped in media, and used in a variety of commercial purposes as away of drawing attention. When death and tragedy are used in marketing communication, it is called necromarketing. There are two ap- proaches to the tool of necromarketing: explicit and implicit. Explicit necromarketing displays ca- tastrophes, misfortunes and deaths in their direct form, while implicit necromarketing indirectly presents of the death. Keywords: Necromarketing, Marketing, Mass Media, Advertising, Death. Introduction The fields of marketing and advertising consistently look for new methods to cre- ate buzz and to sell products. Once such method, necromarketing, was started in 2009 [Wojciechowski, 2010]. This tool began as a reflection of the inevitability that humans face death. Marketing products through the aspect of death or tragedy, which has gen- erally been seen as taboo, has since become established. Necromarketing represents a field of marketing which uses generally known marketing rules and techniques with the aim to evoke a change which would satisfy the wishes of individuals, organisations; and faces towards situations and objects explicitly or implicitly connected to the death or parasite on the death and tragedy [Wojciechowski, 2010, p. 8]. Nowadays death and tragedies connected with death, illnesses and bad luck, have become more and more familiar, in the media.

Early on, it became clear to us that an important function we can serve is as helpers of and liaisons among people and clubs who are working on projects dealing with global issues. We quickly found out that there are a lot of people who have a lot more experi- ence than we, so we have a lot to learn. I was extremely lucky. The first two people I asked if they wanted to join me in a project to “Save the World” neither laughed nor, to my surprise, told me to go away. Terry Konn has lots of experience, energy and drive. Howard Miller keeps us honest, organ- ized and on track. And through Terry’s tireless work we have the pleasure of also working with Janice Thomas, whose warmth, graciousness, organizational skill, and so many other talents give us a robust team, the strength and energy of which is immeasur- able.
