The Journalist In The Network: A Shifting Rationale For The Gatekeeping Role And The Objectivity Norm, Jane Singer
The Journalist In The Network: A Shifting Rationale For The Gatekeeping Role And The Objectivity Norm, Jane Singer
Jane B. Singer
The move to a networked media environment presents a range of challenges to journalistic routines, roles, and norms. This article suggests that professional ethics have evolved to articulate and safeguard a traditional gatekeeping role that no longer exists; as a result, the rationale behind those ethics must shift to accommodate interconnections rather than discrete products and functions. Similarly, the notion of journalistic objectivity is open to renewed debate when detachment can translate into isolation from the rest of the network.

Comparing Attitudes Towards Computer Usage By Undergraduates From 1986 To 2005, Paula Popovich, Nicole Gullekson, Samantha Morris, Brendan Morse
Comparing Attitudes Towards Computer Usage By Undergraduates From 1986 To 2005, Paula Popovich, Nicole Gullekson, Samantha Morris, Brendan Morse
Brendan J. Morse
The importance and use of computers has increased dramatically over the last two decades. The Attitudes Towards Computer Usage Scale (ATCUS) was developed in 1986 [Popovich, P. M., Hyde, K. R., Zakrajsek, T., & Blumer, C. (1987). The development of the attitudes toward computer usage scale. Educational and Psychological Measurement, 47, 261–269.] and used in a variety of settings over the years. In order to examine how computer attitudes have changed from 1986 to 2005, the ATCUS was given to 254 male and female current undergraduate students. When comparing the 1986 with 2005 results, the amount of time spent using …

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis (Cea) Of Four Interventions For Adolescents With A Substance Use Disorder, Michael French, Silvana Zavala, Kathryn Mccollister, Holly Waldron, Charles Turner, Timothy Ozechowski
Michael T. French
Alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drug use among adolescents in the U.S. continues to be a serious public health challenge. A variety of outpatient treatments for adolescent substance use disorders have been developed and evaluated. Although no specific treatment modality is effective in all settings, a number of promising adolescent interventions have emerged. As policy makers try to prioritize which programs to fund with limited public resources, the need for systematic economic evaluations of these programs is critical. The present study attempted a cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) of four interventions, including family-based, individual, and group cognitive behavioral approaches, for adolescents with a …

Taken For Granted? Managing For Social Equity In Grant Programs., Brian Collins, Brian Gerber
Taken For Granted? Managing For Social Equity In Grant Programs., Brian Collins, Brian Gerber
Brian K. Collins
Managing for social equity performance has long been a goal without much guidance for public managers. We examine social equity performance in the context of indirect governance through the administration of grant programs and, more specifically, the matching of policy responses (grant funding) to social needs. Grant program managers must allocate funding to match needs while also ensuring accountability, but common administrative models that rely on competition can undermine social equity performance. We develop a unique framework to analyze the relative social equity performance of four models of grant administration in general. These models are defined by whether competitions or …

Categorical Structure In Early Semantic Networks Of Nouns, Josita Maouene
Categorical Structure In Early Semantic Networks Of Nouns, Josita Maouene
Josita C Maouene
Despite what we know about children’s ability to categorize, it is not clear to what extent information in the environment is capable of facilitating higher-order category knowledge, nor to what extent different kinds of object features play different kinds of roles. As a start we built a network of 130 early-learned nouns with 1394 perceptual and functional features as given by adult judgments. Then we analyzed the basic structural properties of the network. These revealed a small world structure and a high degree of feature overlap in local clusters. To identify the local clusters, we used a clique percolation algorithm …

Fertility And The Health Of Children: An Application Of A Nonparametric Conditional Late Estimator, Daniel Henderson, Daniel Millimet, Christopher Parmeter, Le Wang
Christopher F. Parmeter
Although the theoretical trade-off between the quantity and quality of children is well established, empirical evidence supporting such a causal relationship is limited. This chapter applies a recently developed nonparametric estimator of the conditional local average treatment effect to assess the sensitivity of the quantity-quality trade-off to functional form and parametric assumptions. Using data from the Indonesia Family Life Survey and controlling for potential endogeneity of fertility, we find mixed evidence supporting the trade-off.
Is There A Role For Public Support Of Incumbent Worker On-The-Job Training?, Kevin Hollenbeck
Is There A Role For Public Support Of Incumbent Worker On-The-Job Training?, Kevin Hollenbeck
Kevin Hollenbeck
States have begun to use training subsidies as a policy tool for employment retention and business competitiveness. This paper summarizes a survey of states concerning their investments in incumbent worker training. Altogether, states are investing about $550 to $800 million, which is perhaps one percent or less of total private sector training costs. The paper further discusses a study conducted for one state in which we found significant fiscal returns implying that underinvestment of public funds for incumbent worker training may be occurring. In this state, primary sector jobs were created or retained at a public cost of less than …

The Linguistic Similarities Of Spanish Heritage And Second Language Learners, Andrew Lynch
Andrew Lynch
This article addresses the situation of lower-proficiency heritage language learners of Spanish in terms of their linguistic similarities to second language learners. The analysis highlights grammatical and lexical features in the oral discourse of Spanish heritage and second language learners at intermediate and advanced levels of study, establishing common linguistic ground between the two groups. Given the similarities, the article emphasizes the current need for courses designed to accommodate lower-proficiency heritage learners, integrating principles and aspects of second language acquisition theory and pedagogy.

The Seven Deadly Sins Of Communication Research, Ann Williams
The Seven Deadly Sins Of Communication Research, Ann Williams
Ann E Williams
We analyzed anonymized copies of the complete reviewer comments for 120 recent submissions to the Journal of Communication and attempted to identify the scholarly "sins" and "virtues" most frequently mentioned by the reviewers and most closely associated with the decision to publish the submission. We assessed levels of interreviewer agreement and patterns of evaluation in different subfields of communication scholarship. An explicit connection to a clearly identified theoretical corpus and novel findings or perspectives proved to be the most important predictors of publication. We discuss the ramifications of these findings for the current state of communication research.
