Leader Sex And Task Orientation: An Information Processing Perspective, Thomas Arthur Buhr
Leader Sex And Task Orientation: An Information Processing Perspective, Thomas Arthur Buhr
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
The role of leadership and its effect on small group function and efficiency has led to a wealth of research data. Of particular importance to the real world outside the laboratory and the classroom are the leadership variables of sex and task orientation. In the last two decades, women have assumed more leadership positions in the business and political world than at any other time in the past (White, De Sanctis & Crino, 1981). In addition, there has been a call to examine the many different ways a leader can approach the group to accomplish a task (Fiedler, 1978). Two …
Mandate For Fear Appeal Research: A Clearer Perspective, Elizabeth Cheney Michel
Mandate For Fear Appeal Research: A Clearer Perspective, Elizabeth Cheney Michel
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
The fear appeal is one of the most prevalent types of persuasion evident in society. A great percentage of advertising bases its success on "an appeal calculated to elicit anxiety on the part of the listener" (Miller, 1963, p. 117). Children have been reared on its admonitions. Nearly every American is by now familiar with the Surgeon General's Warning. The recent AIDS epidemic has prompted a highly consequential use of this appeal. If the effectuality of everyday fear persuasions can be left to chance, choice, or Mother Nature, this last lethal onslaught demands immediate attention from the communication community. An …

Sense Of Humor And Social Anxiety, James E. Fischer
Sense Of Humor And Social Anxiety, James E. Fischer
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
In utilizing humorous intervention within the psychotherapeutic milieu, researchers have indicated that there is a relationship between an individual's sense of humor and stressful emotions, specifically anxiety. However, the nature of this relationship is uncertain. While some scientists propose a direct relationship between humor and anxiety, others hypothesize an inverse relationship. This study was designed to investigate this relationship, hypothesizing that the greater an individual's sense of humor, the more likely the individual would experience anxiety in social situations. The subjects were 143 male and female undergraduates. These volunteers were administered the Situational Humor Response Questionnaire (SHRQ) and the Interaction …

It outlines how guest artists can bring new perspectives, provide workshops, and expand opportunities for students and faculty alike. Practical guidance is offered on identifying artists, including local and regional talent, and on developing creative funding strategies through grants, interdepartmental cooperation, teaching budgets, and community support. The article emphasizes the importance of highlighting unique institutional and regional assets to attract artists, while also providing meaningful professional experiences for them. Examples are given of how …

Theatre And Television: A Call For A Merger, Sharaf N. Rehman
Theatre And Television: A Call For A Merger, Sharaf N. Rehman
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article advocates greater collaboration between theatre and telecommunication programs in higher education, emphasizing the benefits of merging skills in performance and media production. It critiques theatre curricula for focusing almost exclusively on stage performance while neglecting training for microphones and cameras, and notes that radio-television programs often overlook dramatic production. An experimental workshop at a midwestern university demonstrated the value of integrating students from theatre, radio-television, and English in producing plays for television, with positive feedback from both faculty and professionals. Building on this model, West Texas State University developed a sequence of courses in television and radio drama …
A Survey Of Faculty Salaries In Selected Communication Disciplines: 1986–87, Patricia D. Witherspoon, Kathleen J. Jensen
A Survey Of Faculty Salaries In Selected Communication Disciplines: 1986–87, Patricia D. Witherspoon, Kathleen J. Jensen
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article reports results from a 1986–87 national survey of faculty salaries in selected communication disciplines, including advertising, journalism, radio-television-film, speech communication, and communication disorders. Data were collected from thirty-five institutions, primarily public universities, with salary ranges reported by rank across departments. Results indicate that advertising faculty consistently earned the highest mean salaries, particularly at the assistant professor level, reflecting competition with business schools and private sector opportunities. Speech communication salaries ranked lowest at the assistant and associate levels but showed the greatest percentage increase at the full professor rank, surpassing other disciplines. Salary differences were attributed to factors such …
Academic Departments: Breaking The Habit Of Isolation, Jon Whitmore
Academic Departments: Breaking The Habit Of Isolation, Jon Whitmore
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article critiques the tendency of academic departments to become isolated and protective of their disciplinary boundaries, limiting opportunities for intellectual growth and collaboration. While departments provide essential structure and identity within higher education, they can also foster parochialism, territorialism, and insularity. The discussion highlights theatre as an inherently interdisciplinary field that naturally connects with literature, music, anthropology, cultural studies, and technology, making it well-suited for cross-departmental partnerships. Examples include collaborations with engineering and architecture on computer-aided design, with visual artists and composers on performance art, and with modern languages and cultural studies scholars as dramaturgs. The article argues that …

The discussion outlines practical considerations, including aligning artistic philosophy with the host institution, clarifying workload expectations, and understanding available facilities, budgets, and schedules before accepting an engagement. Attention is given to the importance of recognizing limitations, valuing differences, and negotiating fair compensation and accommodations. The …
Grade Inflation In Communication Graduate Education, David M. Berg
Grade Inflation In Communication Graduate Education, David M. Berg
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article investigates whether grade inflation is a concern in graduate communication programs, drawing on responses from Big Ten universities. Department chairs reported that grade inflation was not a significant issue, though many noted the increasing use of incompletes, which sometimes substitute for lower grades and complicate evaluations. Data from several institutions showed graduate grade point averages consistently ranging from the mid-3.4s to high-3.6s, with communication programs often slightly higher than university-wide averages. Some administrators interpreted these results as evidence of strong students, while others suggested that grades may no longer distinguish levels of ability. The discussion emphasizes that while …
Pluralism In Educational Theatre, Betty Jean Jones
Pluralism In Educational Theatre, Betty Jean Jones
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article explores strategies for increasing minority participation in theatre performance training at predominantly white colleges and universities. Drawing on Stanislavski’s concept of the “circle of attention,” it argues that recruitment, retention, and casting must be approached holistically to foster diversity and inclusion. The discussion emphasizes that opportunities for minority students must extend beyond admission to meaningful casting and curricular integration, supported by institutional commitment. Broader issues such as the decline of Black Studies programs, the shortage of minority faculty, and campus racial tensions are linked to the challenge of achieving pluralism in educational theatre. Non-traditional casting, community collaboration, and …
