Critical Cultural Theory And Social Learning: An Exploration Of Health & Fitness Magazines' Roles In Propagating Eating Disorders., Terry Nelson
Student Work
The purpose of this study was to examine what health and fitness magazines tell women about their bodies and health, particularly Shape, Self, Fitness, Fit, Women's Sports & Fitness, and Health. Guided by several mass communication theories that suggest mass media is particularly powerful in its ability to construct, establish and reinforce a culture's definition of beauty, this inductive analysis focused on the latent meanings in the texts. The study's objective was to determine if these magazines were true to their health premise. The texts analyzed included visuals, how-to articles, body transformation stories, celebrity features, and texts that focused on …

Newspaper Treatment Of People With Disabilities: The Changing Use Of Preferred And Non-Preferred Terms In The New York Times And Omaha World-Herald., Lenal M. Bottoms
Student Work
The purpose of this study was to examine whether the print media use preferred terminology when portraying people with disabilities. This was performed through an examination of content from the 1909, 1939, 1969 and 1999 New York Times and 1969 and 1999 Omaha World Herald articles. A sample of twenty news stories about people with disabilities was chosen from the 1909 and 1939 New York Times and from the 1969 New York Times and Omaha World-Herald. Forty articles were chosen from the 1999 New York Times and Omaha World-Herald. A content analysis was conducted to determine if disability-related news stories …
Time Magazine Coverage Of Three More Us Presidents: Still Stereotyping?, Amy L. Doerr
Time Magazine Coverage Of Three More Us Presidents: Still Stereotyping?, Amy L. Doerr
Student Work
Media bias toward presidential administrations has been subject to discussion since Presidents were first elected in the United States. In the case of Time magazine, the inclusion of bias is intentional. Merrill’s 1965 study examined coverage of Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy and found bias in six different categories. Felder, Meeske and Hall replicated Merrill’s study in 1979 and found that Time continued to use most of the bias categories reported by Merrill.

Silence And Silencing: Their Centripetal And Centrifugal Forces In Cultural Expression, Pedagogy And Legal Discourse, Margaret E. Montoya
Faculty Scholarship
This article uses Critical Race Theory and LatCrit Theory in its analysis, methodologies, and purpose. I seek to disrupt silences around race and to provide the knowledge and skills for effective work on racial equity and justice. Language and voice have been subjects of great interest to scholars working in the areas of Critical Race Theory and Latina/o Critical Legal Theory. Silence, a counterpart of voice, has not, however, been well theorized. This Article is an invitation to attend to silence and silencing. The first part of the Article argues that one's use of silence is an aspect of communication …

Racing For Fans: Communication Technology, The Total Experience, And The Rise Of Nascar, Elizabeth M Smith
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
The National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing, or NASCAR, has seen a tremendous popularity surge in the past decade. The sport is attracting record crowds at its events nationwide and its televised broadcasts are gaining audiences rapidly. While there are many reasons why NASCAR has gained an audience recently, this exploratory study examines the role of communication technology in the proliferation of the sport; Each technology is discussed as it relates to a NASCAR fan's enjoyment of the "total experience," a term that defines the ultimate mediated experience available to a fan using communication technology without his or her …

Development And Implementation Of The C-Print Speech-To-Text Support Service, Michael Stinson, Barbara Mckee, Lisa Elliot
Articles
In this chapter we provide an overview of the growth of this system from an idea to a system that hundreds of deaf and hard of hearing students depend on everyday for communication access and learning. This chapter addresses the following questions regarding the development and implementation of C-Print. Why is there a need for the system? How does C-Print work? What have been the phases in creating the current system? What is the research evidence regarding its effectiveness and limitations? How might the system change in the future as new technologies emerge?
Applications Of Wavelet Transforms In Biomedical Optoacoustics, Zibiao Wei, Shujun Yang, Amin N. Dharamsi, Barbara Hargrave
Applications Of Wavelet Transforms In Biomedical Optoacoustics, Zibiao Wei, Shujun Yang, Amin N. Dharamsi, Barbara Hargrave
Biological Sciences Faculty Publications
We discuss the utility of wavelet transform methods in signal processing in general, and in particular, demonstrate the technique in optoacoustic applications. In several optoacoustic experiments with different samples, we have successfully enhanced the signal to noise ratios. Wavelet transforms optimize resolution by utilizing a tailored, variable time-window in different frequency regions. The technique's great advantage lies in the fact that the wavelet transform adds some redundancy to the original signal, and some desired features can be enhanced in the transformed space. In addition, proper choice of the basis set allows a sparse representation of the signal. Therefore, even when …

Student Work
Like the air we breathe, the media permeate our society. Twenty-four hours a day news and information is available from all reaches of the earth. Because the majority of our knowledge of the world around us comes from the media, they have tremendous power over how people, places and events are perceived (Graber, 1997). Whether the story publicizes controversial issues such as same-sex marriage, or tugs at patriotic themes like flag burning, by giving air times or column inches, media imply certain values and beliefs and newsworthy. In a democratic society, media do not say what to think, but highlighting …

Communication Stereotypes Of Caucasian College Students, Danna Voorhes Swartz
Communication Stereotypes Of Caucasian College Students, Danna Voorhes Swartz
Student Work
This thesis examined what communication stereotypes are held by Caucasian college students. The literature review focused on defining stereotypes, the function and roles of stereotypes, how stereotypes serve as communication barriers, and findings of previous studies of stereotypes. The research question asked what are the communication stereotypes of African-Americans, Japanese-Americans and Mexican-Americans as maintained by Caucasian undergraduate college students? Participants in the study were 200 Caucasian, undergraduate students who were asked to complete a survey regarding typical communication characteristics of each group in question. The results indicated uniformity in response to Japanese- and African- Americans with less agreement on characteristics …
