Nonverbal Neutrality of Broadcasters Covering Crisis: Not Just What You Say But How You Say It (Routledge Focus on Journalism Studies)
by Danielle F DeavoursOffering a critical and sensitive reflection on journalists’ nonverbal behaviors during their coverage of school shootings in the U.S., this book shows how individual- and social-level factors predict broadcasters’ nonverbal neutrality. Nonverbal behaviors have the ability to transmit bias, influence audiences, and impact perceptions of journalists. Yet journalists report receiving little to no training on nonverbal communication, despite often being placed in emotional, chaotic situations that affect their ability to remain neutral during coverage. This book provides theoretical and methodological contributions, as well as applicable advice, to assist researchers’, instructors’, and journalists’ understandings of ongoing boundary negotiations of this rarely discussed but highly impactful aspect of objectivity. Through the proposal of the Nonverbal Neutrality Theory, it outlines predictive patterns and routines that contribute to the variability of nonverbal neutrality, and equips readers, including industry professionals and journalism educators, with examples of best practice to help better plan for crisis coverage. The work draws on journalists’ reflections on professional norms and conceptualizations of nonverbal neutrality, vicarious traumatization, and social- and organizational-level influences. As one of the first to explore nonverbal neutrality, its predictive factors, and patterns across crisis events, this book provides a much-needed insight into the nonverbal behaviors of broadcast journalists at a time when the media relies ever more on visual delivery on television, digital, and social media networks.
Nonverbal Perceptual and Cognitive Processes in Children With Language Disorders: Toward A New Framework for Clinical intervention
by Walter Bischofberger F‚licie AffolterA growing body of literature is suggesting that many children with language disorders and delays--even those with so-called specific language impairment--have difficulties in other domains as well. In this pathbreaking book, the authors draw on more than 40 years of research and clinical observations of populations ranging from various groups of children to adults with brain damage to construct a comprehensive model for the development of the interrelated skills involved in language performance, and trace the crucial implications of this model for intervention. Early tactual feedback, they argue, is more critical for the perceptual/cognitive organization of experiences that constitutes a foundation for language development than either visual or auditory input, and the importance of tactually-anchored nonverbal interaction cannot be ignored if efforts at treatment are to be successful. All those professionally involved in work with children and adults with language problems will find the authors' model provocative and useful.

Nordic-Chinese Intersections within Education (Palgrave Studies on Chinese Education in a Global Perspective)
by Haiqin Liu Fred Dervin Xiangyun DuThis book examines how the two educational systems of China and the Nordic countries intersect. Over the past decade, there has been increased growth and interaction between China and the Nordic countries due to both government encouragement and academic curiosity. This book rejects a simplistic approach that presents both spaces as culturally uniform, confronting ‘East’ and ‘West’ entities, and suggests a comparative and contrastive approach that is critical and reflexive in both theory and methodology. This does not solely concentrate on difference, but emphasises similarities, including studies on philosophical, conceptual and methodological issues. This nuanced edited collection will appeal to students and scholars of Nordic and Chinese education as well as globalisation and interculturality.
Normative and Pragmatic Dimensions of Genetic Counseling: Negotiating Genetics and Ethics (Philosophy and Medicine #124)
by Joseph B. FanningThis book provides an elaboration and evaluation of the dominant conceptions of genetic counseling as they are accounted for in three different models: the teaching model; the psychotherapeutic model; and the responsibility model. The elaboration of these models involves an identification of the larger traditions, visions and theories of communication that underwrite them; the evaluation entails an assessment of each model’s theses and ultimately a comparison of their adequacy in response to two important concerns in genetic counseling: the contested values of non-directiveness and the recognition of differences across perspectives, with special focus on how religious and spiritual beliefs of patients are coordinated with the networks of meaning in genetics. Several insights are made explicit in this project through the work of Robert Brandom. Brandom’s deontic scorekeeping model demonstrates how dialogue is at the root of grasping a conceptual content. Against this backdrop, professional communications such as genetic counseling can be seen as late developments in linguistic practices that have structural challenges. Brandom’s model reminds us that the professional needs the client’s understanding to grasp conceptual content in a particular context.
Normative Aspekte der Public Relations: Grundlegende Fragen und Perspektiven. Eine Einführung
by Wolfgang Armbrecht Ulf J. ZabelImmer häufiger stellt sich die Frage nach der Zukunft und der Bedeutung von Public Relations, dabei werden die Antworten im Rückgriff auf wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse und auf die praktizierten Normen sittlichen Verhaltens gesucht. Es verwundert folglich nicht, daß für PR Primate des "Sollens" gefordert werden, um Defizite in der Praxis zu überwinden. PR-Ethik soll PR zu mehr Professionalismus verhelfen, ihr eine neue Perspektive öffnen und mehr Glaubwürdigkeit nach innen wie nach außen gewährleisten.Die Herbert-Quandt-Stiftung hat diese Entwicklung zum Anlaß genommen, Wissenschaftler aus PR-bezogenen Disziplinen zur Diskussion von Ethik-Fragen einzuladen. Schwerpunktthemen waren philosophische und ethische Aspekte von PR, Organisation und Management, kommunikationswissenschaftliche Ansätze und denkbare Folgen des Nachdenkens über PR-Ethik für Praxis und PR-Forschung.
Normativität in der Kommunikationswissenschaft
by Matthias Karmasin Matthias Rath Barbara ThomaßDie Funktion von Medien für den Einzelnen und in der Gesellschaft sind immer auch mit normativen Vorannahmen und Erwartungen verbunden. Leitbilder wie Partizipation oder publizistische Vielfalt, die pluralistische Medienordnungen prägen, sind ebenso Orientierungspunkte für Medienpolitik oder edienerziehung wie auch für die Forschung, die sich dem Wirken von Medien in Rezeption und Gesellschaft widmet. So lassen sich auch für die verschiedenen Teilgebiete der Kommunikationswissenschaft unterschiedliche normative Wertvorstellungen rekonstruieren. Der Band will dieses normative Moment kommunikationswissenschaftlicher Forschung als Leistungsfähigkeit der Disziplin im Hinblick auf ihre gesellschaftliche Verantwortung beleuchten

North Korea's Hidden Revolution: How the Information Underground Is Transforming a Closed Society
by Jieun BaekThe story of North Korea's information underground and how it inspires people to seek better lives beyond their country’s borders One of the least understood countries in the world, North Korea has long been known for its repressive regime. Yet it is far from being an impenetrable black box. Media flows covertly into the country, and fault lines are appearing in the government’s sealed informational borders. Drawing on deeply personal interviews with North Korean defectors from all walks of life, ranging from propaganda artists to diplomats, Jieun Baek tells the story of North Korea’s information underground—the network of citizens who take extraordinary risks by circulating illicit content such as foreign films, television shows, soap operas, books, and encyclopedias. By fostering an awareness of life outside North Korea and enhancing cultural knowledge, the materials these citizens disseminate are affecting the social and political consciousness of a people, as well as their everyday lives.

(Not) Getting Paid to Do What You Love: Gender, Social Media, and Aspirational Work
by Brooke Erin DuffyAn illuminating investigation into a class of enterprising women aspiring to “make it” in the social media economy but often finding only unpaid work Profound transformations in our digital society have brought many enterprising women to social media platforms—from blogs to YouTube to Instagram—in hopes of channeling their talents into fulfilling careers. In this eye-opening book, Brooke Erin Duffy draws much-needed attention to the gap between the handful who find lucrative careers and the rest, whose “passion projects” amount to free work for corporate brands. Drawing on interviews and fieldwork, Duffy offers fascinating insights into the work and lives of fashion bloggers, beauty vloggers, and designers. She connects the activities of these women to larger shifts in unpaid and gendered labor, offering a lens through which to understand, anticipate, and critique broader transformations in the creative economy. At a moment when social media offer the rousing assurance that anyone can “make it”—and stand out among freelancers, temps, and gig workers—Duffy asks us all to consider the stakes of not getting paid to do what you love.

Notes for Negotiating Now: Biz Books to Go
by Leslie Whitaker Elizabeth AustinNote for Negotiating Now is a part of iPublish.com's series of short books for readers on the go. Whether you're buying a house, asking for a raise, or drawing up your divorce agreement, the internal pressure to "be a good girl" can drive you to give away more than you should, or settle for less than you deserve. Don't be embarrassed; you're not alone. Women buy half of the nation's new cars every year, yet studies show they end up paying up to 40 percent more than their male counterparts. At work, they earn 77 cents for every male dollar. And when they get home, married women do far more than their fair share of the household chores. It's not surprising that so many of us are lousy negotiators. From the time we're tiny, we're encouraged to please others and deny our own needs. But the good news for good girls is that many of us already possess an arsenal of undiscovered negotiating skills. We're great listeners, keen observers of nonverbal cues, and experts at putting ourselves in the other person's shoes. Notes for Negotiating Now will help you put those extraordinary gifts to work and equip you with the self-confidence, knowledge,

Chapters underscore the deep interconnection between all the aspects of the novel, between the novel as a (literary) form, as an idea, and as a commodity. Bringing together experts from American, British, and Postcolonial Studies, as well as Book, Publishing, and Media Studies, this collection offers a new vantage point to view the novel in its multifaceted expressions today.
Novel Millimetre Wave Antennas for MIMO and 5G Applications (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering #819)
by Shiban Kishen Koul Zamir WaniThis book presents state-of-the-art millimetre wave antennas for next generation 5G communications. The propagation losses associated with the millimetre waves and the signal blockage due to the objects present between transmitter and receiver require novel antenna topologies to address these issues. Various aspects of antenna design related to millimetre wave 5G communication including 28-GHz channel characteristics, mmWave antenna requirements, antenna design strategies for 28 GHz, MIMO/multibeam antennas, and mmWave lens antennas are highlighted. Apart from the general antenna requirements and study related to the 28 GHz frequency band, various new metamaterial-based antennas employing uniaxial or biaxial anisotropic media that enhance the antenna radiation performance are covered in detail. In addition, various new antenna systems such as wide-scan antenna arrays, dual-polarized antennas, and dual-beam/multibeam antennas are covered in this book. The book concludes with the glimpses of the millimetre wave lens antennas and the design of very thin planar metamaterial lens for 5G massive MIMO applications.
