The Constitutive Relationship of Social Communication Competence to Self-Compassion and Hope     

Laura R. Umphrey  John C. Sherblom 《Communication Research Reports》2018,35(1):22-32

Communication is constitutive—in theory. In research, however, communication is often treated as an outcome, influenced by personal attributes. The present research examines social communication competence as a constitutive influence predicting self-compassion and hope. Path analysis results support this hypothesis. Results show that social communication expressivity (β = .14), sensitivity (β = –.32), and control (β = .20) predict self-compassion. Social communication sensitivity (β = .26) and control (β = .27) affect hope agency, and social communication control (β = .29) predicts hope pathways thinking. These results provide evidence of the constitutive nature of communication.  相似文献   

Social Comparisons and Need Fulfillment: Interpreting Video Game Enjoyment in the Context of Leaderboards     

John A. Velez  David R. Ewoldsen  Michael D. Hanus  Hyunjin Song  Jonathan A. Villarreal 《Communication Research Reports》2018,35(5):424-433

This study examines how social comparison information provided by video game leaderboards may influence players’ retrospective judgments of autonomy, competence, and relatedness need fulfillment. Participants played a video game and were randomly assigned to receive no postgame feedback or were shown a leaderboard that placed them in the top or bottom quartile of players. Results indicate downward social comparisons increase enjoyment by increasing competence and relatedness perceptions. However, upward comparisons did not have an opposite effect, nor did either type of social comparison influence players’ autonomy perceptions. Implications for applying Self-Determination Theory to video game enjoyment in the context of social comparison feedback is discussed.  相似文献   

Clinical Medical Librarian Licensure: Pros versus Cons     

John Bramble  Shawn Steidinger  Claire Hamasu  Melissa Austin 《Medical reference services quarterly》2018,37(3):306-311

In hospitals and clinics, anyone who “touches” a patient has a license authorizing them to do so—from the phlebotomist to the cardiologist, from the genetic counselor to the social worker, and so on, except for the clinical medical librarian. This column discusses the intent versus the realities of occupational licensure for clinical medical librarians and provides recommendations for next steps.  相似文献   

OER evaluation as a means of teaching information literacy in individual and small group settings     

Sarah Evelyn  John Kromer 《The Reference Librarian》2018,59(1):1-9

ABSTRACT

Open education resources represent a great opportunity to reduce textbook costs, but many of them have not been evaluated for quality. Librarians and former students in an introduction to engineering course collected and evaluated open education resources to supplement the course textbook in future semesters. Both searching for and evaluating these resources created opportunities for the librarians to evaluate information literacy skills of these students and to provide instruction to improve these skills.  相似文献

The IR Has Two Faces: Positioning Institutional Repositories for Success     

John Novak  Annette Day 《New Review of Academic Librarianship》2018,24(2):157-174

This article describes the ongoing efforts at University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) Libraries to evolve the role of the institutional repository (IR) and to effectively position it within the context of the Libraries’ collections, research support, and scholarly communication services. A major component of this process is re-examining the fundamental aims of the IR and aligning it to the Libraries and the campus strategic goals. The authors situate UNLV Libraries’ experience within the context of the current literature to provide background and reasoning for our decision to pursue two, at times conflicting, aims for the IR: one for scholarly communication and another for research administration.  相似文献   

Citizen-Centered Journalism and Contested Boundaries     

Magda Konieczna  John A. Hatcher  Jennifer E. Moore 《Journalism Practice》2018,12(1):4-18

This article explores the existence of a “citizen-centered journalism” that sees citizens as crucial participants in the construction of news and as co-creators of their own worlds. Through qualitative case studies of three news organizations, the article examines the motivation for using a citizen-centered approach, the news routines that are required to do so, the categories of content produced, and the perceived impact of this approach. The results suggest these news organizations are working in partnership with communities and striving to give a voice to historically marginalized communities. The journalists, however, see citizen participation as complementary to professional journalistic routines that favor verifiable information, rather than assigning inherent value to it for its own sake.  相似文献
