针对2010年国内发生的“转基因主粮商业化争论事件”,文章以2010年国内重要报纸为研究对象,采用文献研究和内容分析法对2010年1月1日到12月31日期间(共1821份样本)国内重要报纸中关于转基因报道的新闻进行定量内容分析.通过对转基因报道的数量、议题、立场和利益—风险评价等变量进行深入系统地分析,指出我国报纸媒体建构转基因技术形象的概况、特点、问题及原因,并在此基础上探讨了转基因技术形象的建构与媒体传播之间的一些关系.     

拟真时代:鲍德里亚媒介理论的后现代视角

作为后现代主义理论的中心人物之一,鲍德里亚以"拟像"、"拟真"和"超真实"等概念描述媒介与技术主导下的后现代社会形态。他将媒介阐释为主要的拟真机器,媒介的拟真不仅渗透到大众日常生活,同时也成为当代资本主义新的社会控制模型。在媒介与技术形成的超真实世界中,作为社会主体的大众被压制、消解而沦落为"沉默的大多数",最终导致了"社会的终结"。鲍德里亚的理论对理解后现代主义视野下的媒介批判理论、阐述媒介的意识形态功能提供了有益的启示。     

媒介融合背景下我国数字内容的监管难题与解决路径

媒介融合背景下我国数字内容出现了三大监管难题:数字内容的监管模式选择问题,数字内容的监管失控问题以及数字内容的监管权属问题,造成这些问题的主要原因是网络融合使传统的分类监管难以适应传播管道的一体化形势、终端融合使传统的源头控制失效导致内容失控,内容的融合产生交叉业务导致监管权属之争;借鉴西方国家的经验,遵循媒介本身的监管规律,解决我国数字内容监管难题的的基本路径是:通过立法统一监管体系,确立数字内容的监管标准,强化媒介的中、后端监管,尝试综合型的内容监管模式.     

《大学语文》教学中的教师主体性研究

由于日益物质化、功利化的社会大环境的影响和课程自身的弱点等原因,作为大学人文素质教育的"先驱"和"主干"课程的大学语文濒临被弱化和边缘化的艰危处境,作为从教多年的大学语文教师,试结合自己的教学实践,从教师这一视角论述如何充分发挥教师的主体能动作用,为大学语文教学走出困境尽其绵薄之力。     

主流媒体对农民工的表征及其变迁 ———以中央电视台春节联欢晚会中小品节目为例

农民工是我国经济发展与社会变革过程中出现的重要新群体,为社会提供了独特的媒介资源。他们与城市人的融合不可避免地受到主流媒体的影响。主流媒体对农民工的表征与城市主流社会心态之间存在相互影响、互为因果的关系。文章选取了从1983年至2009年的26年间中央电视台春节联欢晚会中涉及农民工、农民、城市人的小品,通过对三者的对照分析来考察主流媒体对农民工的表征。研究结果显示,春晚小品在农民工的表征模式中最主要特征为：农民工作为个体客居于城市中、以打工的状态而存在,其地位处于城市人之下,并无改变现实的权利,即处于一种＂边缘状态＂;他们与城市人保持着和谐相处、互相妥协、维护与服从的关系;同时,他们身上并未改变的是与农民相似的传统人格——老实、简单、淳朴、善良。文章还探讨了主流媒体对农民工表征的变迁及其背后的政治经济历史因素和所蕴含的社会意义。     

What kind of country we want for our children: an analysis of media coverage of the 2017 New Zealand General Election

ABSTRACT

This article is the third in a series investigating media reporting of New Zealand elections. Based on content analysis of 510 articles published in the New Zealand Herald, and thematic analysis of a subset of news stories related to young people, the study examines media coverage of the 2017 elections by looking at the topics of news stories, presence of party policies, diversity of sources and references to social groups. Comparing the 2017 results with the results of the Herald’s coverage of 2014 elections, we register a shift towards a stronger presence of policy issues, more female voices in the reports and significantly higher reference to young people. We further investigated the high number of references to young people by conducting qualitative analysis on the subset of articles mentioning young people.     

Media Production as Therapy: A Systematic Review

Abstract

The rapidly changing communication environment of the digital age has generated needed discussion regarding implications of media technologies for social work practice. Yet scarce research has considered the therapeutic value of media technologies for social work practice. This systematic review explores how media production is used as a therapeutic intervention in human services to identify the therapeutic value and potential challenges of its application in the field. Media Production as Therapy (MPT) affords a range of therapeutic outcomes, including self- and community-awareness, self-reflection and self-correction practices, self-expression and story-sharing, and processing trauma. Challenges confronted through MPT include time and resource constraints, logistical difficulties, issues of authenticity, and dissemination concerns. Despite limited research, this review provides needed guidance for social workers to harness technology for social good, operating in the digital space to implement MPT interventions that afford a range of therapeutic benefits to clients in an increasingly mediated world.     

Role of Gambling Media Exposure in Influencing Trajectories Among College Students

In the study, a model of the relationship between mass media depictions of gambling and subsequent gambling attitudes and behavioral intentions of college students was developed. A survey was conducted with 229 undergraduate students (79.5% female, mean age = 20.5, SD = 2.04) enrolled in three different communication courses at a large southeastern university. Through structural equation analysis, the six hypotheses of this study were analyzed using the method of maximum likelihood with AMOS 6. The model was consistent with the hypotheses that media exposure impacts gambling attitudes and behavioral intentions both positively and negatively, depending on the valence of the gambling depiction. Theoretical and practical implications of mass media exposure and gambling behaviors are discussed, and future research directions are outlined.     

人口网络信息传播的策略探析——以中国人口网为例

通过考察中国人口网的信息传播现状,认为其信息传播多为自上而下的宣传,少平等温和的互动,没有发挥网媒的优势,传播方式还处于传统媒体信息网络化阶段,缺乏有效的信息传播手段和技巧。为此,运用传播学理论探析增强人口计生信息传播效果的手段和途径,认为在人口计生宣传中有效设置议程,满足受众的信息需求,并注意新闻信息的涵化,有助于正确引导计生舆论,提升计生政策的宣传效果。     

教师教育中的媒介素养教育探析

教师教育是整个教育工作的母机,本研究目的是通过现实总观和基本理论论证,倡导在教师教育中进行媒介素养教育。必要的教师教育路径下的媒介素养教育其形式是渗透教学,以多种方式整合和一般教学相整合。这一教育形式的前景是克服教师个人素质和外部环境双重阻力,使之成为媒介生活反思本身。
