▼ After the minimal consequences position of media effects had replaced the hypodermic needle model of media effects, it was itself successfully challenged by the general wave of social constructionism that posited that while the mass media indeed influenced audiences to a significant degree, members of audiences were not passive receivers but active participants in an interactive, two-way process. The first approach that successfully refuted the minimal effects model with empirical evidence was agenda-setting theory. Soon after, framing theory joined the foray, showing that the way a news narrative is constructed affects attitudes and beliefs of audiences. Today, these two traditions vie for the position of the dominant paradigm in mass communication studies. In this theory-based thesis, we look at agenda-setting and framing traditions in detail and also discuss attempts to combine them into one unified theoretical framework from the both sides of the table. Also, we discuss briefly whether the two theories are still relevant research paradigms in the new mediascape dominated by the Internet. We conclude the paper by looking at the implications that the two theories have on democracy in the complex media-mediated world that we inhabit today.

▼ This thesis uses economic
theory to investigate two important behavioral phenomena: the fact that the beliefs of individuals can be distorted from the truth, and that individuals can endogenously transition between different modes of cognition which affect the rationality of their decision-making. These ideas are looked at in three distinct applications. Chapter 2 looks at a setting in which a contract designer can distort the beliefs of an individual away from the truth through how he presents or frames a contract he is providing. The susceptibility of the agent to these belief distortions is a function of her mode of cognition, which is endogenously determined as a function of the frame. The model generates novel predictions due to the equilibrium effects resulting from the joint determination of
framing and cognition. In particular, it is shown that cognitive investment may actually be increasing in its own cost. Chapter 3 investigates an intra-personal setting in which an agent can distort her own beliefs through the use of different types of self-set goals, and may or may not find it advantageous to do so. This is used to provide a foundation for why individuals repeatedly set goals for themselves that they deviate from. It is shown that individuals with large self-control problems will utilize goals that distort beliefs and, thus, will end up deviating from their self-set goals. Finally, in Chapter 4, the
theory of endogenous modes of cognition is employed in a communication setting. It is shown that bounded cognition can actually increase the propensity for information to be transmitted in equilibrium. A paradox of cognition is established: the greater the cognitive ability of the agent, the less information is revealed to her in equilibrium.

▼ This dissertation research investigated
framing in the Pakistani English-speaking press in the aftermath of the Salala incident in late-2011, during which 24 Pakistani soldiers died and over a dozen were wounded. Occurring only a few months after the American raid to kill Osama bin Laden on Pakistani soil, the Salala border post incident had significant reverberating effects on Pakistani-U.S. relations including the closure of the two main NATO supply routes to Afghanistan for over seven months as well as the delay of foreign aid and security assistance to Pakistan. As part of this study, the researcher conducted a comprehensive content analysis of articles published by five Pakistani English-speaking news outlets including Dawn, The Nation, Daily Regional Times of Sindh, Balochistan Express and Frontier Post, in order to evaluate media usage of deductive generic frames as well as issue-specific national and regional frames. The content analysis demonstrated that the conflict and attribution of responsibility frames were the most prominently used frames in the Pakistani news media followed by the human interest frame, the morality frame and finally, the economic consequences frame. The results of the research showed that the national press was as likely as the regional press to characterize the incident in terms of the regional frames of local insurgency, local politics and local impact. Dawn used the national foreign policy and national terrorism
framing items more than the regional press. However, Balochistan Express and Frontier Post were more likely to use the national border security/sovereignty
framing item.

▼ Title: "Sport is the men's world" - a quantitative content analysts about the gender representation in Hallandsposten's sport pages during april and october 2014. Authors: Martin Laanemets & Maria Narevik Tutor: Ronny Severinsson Examiner: Ebba Sundin Semester: Spring 2016 Number of words: 13 249 Aim: This study aims to examine how the local newspaper Hallandsposten in Sweden portrays male and female ahtletes in the sport pages during april and october 2014. Questions: Is the gender-representation in Hallandsposten dominated by men? How does the gender-representation look like among male and female athletes in Hallandsposten? How does the representation look like among elite- and width-sports? How is the relation between space and gender? How is the relation between space and varoius types of sport? Is the current distribution focusing on the athletes accomplishments or their personal life? Theory: Our theoretical starting point is the idea of gender where men is the norm and women are marginalized. We base our study on theories of masculinity, framing and gender power order. Method: We perfomed a quantitative analysis where we counted all of the sports articles in Hallandsposten with a local aspect during april and october 2014. Furthermore we selected articles that was analysed to the content analysis where the main purpose was to explain and give examples on how both genders are being portayed. Results: The quantitative study showed that 77,9 percent of the articles were about men. It’s a clear domination of male athletes and we could see a few patterns in how female athletes were trivialized and how the accomplishments is not as important as the male’s. Keywords: gender, Hallandsposten, framing, agenda theory, sports

▼ This study tests the assumption that processing limitations (in working memory capacity and numeracy) underlie biased decision-making. In these experiments, access to
framing information during decision-making was manipulated. Having access to the information led to larger
framing biases. Counterintuitively, higher working memory predicted more
framing bias, except for in those with high numeracy, suggesting spontaneous conversion between frames for high numerates. In a second experiment, relationships between memory for the problem information and decision-making were analyzed. Crucial for the some-none comparison underlying
framing effects, memory for the zero-complement was related to more
framing. Memory for the endowment (total lives at risk), which is crucial for spontaneous conversion between frames, led to less bias. Results support fuzzy-trace
theory's conception of
framing effects, specifically that bias is linked to gist (i.e., meaningful representations of the problem), whereas reduced
framing is linked to rote calculation (i.e., verbatim processing).

The framing of infertility in Canadian print news.

▼ Background: The
theory of
framing suggests that the media have the ability to influence how the public thinks about issues (Nelson, Oxley & Clawson, 1997; Chong & Druckman, 2007), by influencing what definitions, causal attributions, moral evaluations, and treatment recommendation the public considers applicable to an issue (Entman, 1993; Tewksbury & Scheufele, 2009). The
theory of
framing has been supported in studies of media representations of a variety of social issues. With particular relevance to this thesis,
framing studies have suggested that health news often portrays the essence of health issues as highly alarming, with few efficacious treatment or coping options (Chang, 2012). The social issue this thesis focuses on specifically is infertility.
Study 1: In Study 1, a content analysis is utilized to examine how Canadian print news frames infertility. One-hundred and fifty-seven Canadian print news articles that contained the key word “infertility” in the year 2012 were analyzed. Two independent coders read the articles, and coded each article using a predetermined coding strategy (Chang, 2012) for if/how infertility was framed with respect to: prevalence; need for alarm; severity; vulnerability; need for alertness; means of coping; causes; and possible solutions. Just over one-half of the articles employed alarm frames (n=80), and the vast majority of these met the criteria for categorization as high alarm (96%). The most commonly cited cause of infertility was delayed childbearing (41% of articles) and the most frequently presented way to cope with infertility was in vitro fertilization (IVF; 46% of articles). Infertility was most often constructed as a women’s issue.
Study 2: Study 2 build on Study 1 by examining the influence that high alarm
framing strategies in the presentation of infertility have on news consumer reactions to, and knowledge of, infertility issues. One hundred and thirty-nine male and female undergraduate students were randomly assigned to read news articles focusing on infertility judged to employ either high alarm
framing strategies (high alarm condition, n=65) or low alarm
framing strategies (low alarm condition, n=66). Participants in each condition read the assigned news articles and subsequently completed a self-administered questionnaire. The questionnaire included measures of: fear of infertility, perceived severity of infertility, perceived vulnerability to infertility, worry about infertility, prevention efficacy, coping efficacy, and knowledge about infertility. The participants in the high alarm condition evidenced higher levels of perceived vulnerability to infertility (p = .04), and marginally higher levels of worry about infertility (p = .075) than those in the low alarm condition. In contrast, participants in the low alarm condition relayed higher levels of infertility related knowledge than those in the high alarm condition (p= .001).
Discussion: Canadian print news portrays infertility as a serious, a prevalent, an alarming and predominantly a women’s disease, and…

▼ For the period of 1995-2013, females ages 18 to 24 had the highest rate of rape and sexual assault victimizations compared to females in all other age groups (Lynn & Sinozich, 2014). There is an even wider problem when among student victims, 20 percent of rape and sexual assault victimizations were reported to police, compared to 32% reported among nonstudent victims ages 18 to 24 (Lynn & Sinozich, 2014). With staggering statistics on sexual assaults, it is clear that this has become a national issue, which has further developed onto college campuses nationwide. In the last decade, sexual assault has gotten more attention in the news than ever before. This study aims to understand the relationship between how the media frames sexual assault and what type of perceptions students have developed because of it. Framing theory will be used to identify if and how the media frames sexual assault and how students react or behave from what they have gathered from the media. This study also aims to look at the broader implications of framing regarding sexual assault, more specifically the framing of the victim, the framing of sexual assault in general, and the framing of preventative efforts and programs. Qualitative focus groups were conducted on the University of South Florida’s campus to gain rich data to fully understand student’s perceptions. It was found that four themes emerged from the focus group that included moderate awareness of the programs, lack of support from the university, confusion about available resources, and the media has influenced students view on sexual assault. The conclusion and future recommendations all steam from the results and what was learned about campus culture.

▼ This case study combines qualitative and quantitative frame analysis methods on the issue of diabetes in Morelia, Mexico, for use in an effective health communications campaign. On-site interviews were conducted with local health
professionals, journalists who cover the health beat, and people with diabetes and family to elicit stories, descriptions, and concerns that would be relevant in creating such a campaign. Content from in-depth interviews were categorized and analyzed as
either a public health frame or socio-cultural schema. The categories were established in previous studies through content analysis of newspapers also concerning diabetes and Latinos (Rodgers & Thornson, 2001; Fieleke, 2007). The results reveal very
pertinent issues surrounding diabetes in Mexico. Above all, the study highlights the need for more health education to encourage prevention, social responsibility, action by the passive, and to remedy erroneous cultural beliefs.

▼ In November 2013, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych suddenly reversed an ongoing process toward Ukrainian membership European Union in favor of strengthening economic ties with Russia. His action triggered mass demonstrations in Kiev's Maidan Square and eventually resulted in his removal from office. Yanukovych's opposition in the government solidified the regime change by assuming interim control of the government. Their supporters, composed mostly of ethnic Ukrainians from the Central and Western oblasts, became known as the Maidan movement. In response, separatist movements formed in the Southern and Eastern Ukrainian oblasts of Donetsk, Luhansk, Crimea and Kharkiv. Following Russia's annexation of Crimea, separatist leaders in Donetsk and Luhansk united to form the self-proclaimed Novorossiya (New Russia) Union. This thesis used a grounded-
theory approach to identify culturally charged
framing devices within Maidan and Novorossiya Union discourse. This paper found that the
framing devices of Maidan and Novorossiya invoked Ukrainian and Russian belief systems. Analysis of elite cultural discourse demonstrated that Russian and Ukrainian beliefs and attitudes manifested as thematic concepts, which identified problems, suggest solutions and motivate action. Thus, the frame existed within the culture of Ukrainian and Russian interpretive communities.
Framing devices and labels used by Novorossiya and Maidan aligned positions regarding the future of Ukraine with such systems of beliefs.

▼ This thesis contributes to the debate about media power by advancing a new theoretical perspective. I critique existing theories of media power and argue that media power as it operates in today's complex media environment can be understood as being based on interactions between the culturally and communicatively symbolic components of media communication and the material features and processes of media through which such symbolic communication occurs. I develop and apply an analytical model capable of spanning these two domains and their complex qualities. To develop the model I adopt a neo-materialist ontology based on Deleuze and Guattari's notion of rhizomatic assemblages, Hertog and McLeod's multi-perspectival frame analysis and DeLanda's theory of the assemblage. I argue that this approach can capture both the symbolic and the material dimensions of media that function through networked, complex and emergent interactions. My analytical model is based on four pillars: hybridity, materiality, choreography and coding. I used the model to guide my empirical fieldwork investigation of three case studies: a public demonstration, an animal rights protest aimed at undermining a well-known brand and the high-profile leaks by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden in 2013. Ethnography, content analysis and interview data were used to assess my model's suitability for making sense of these three cases. Finally, in the conclusion I propose four future themes that this thesis reveals are significant for research on media power: the importance of institutional adaptation, the role of emotion and affect, the significance of computation and the materiality of technology.

▼ On July 19, 2010, conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart posted a story on his website claiming USDA worker Shirley Sherrod was racist in her work with farmers. The edited video included with the story as proof, showed Sherrod speaking at an NAACP banquet. Sherrod was subsequently vilified in the media and fired from her job, only to be exonerated and rehired later that week.
Although the media claims their routine writing and reporting practices (such as newsworthiness, source selection, objectivity, and perpetual news cycle) make the industry better, researchers have shown that these practices lead to the use of shortcuts and stereotypes. This is especially detrimental to Black women because of the double-dose of stereotyping they are
subject to when they are portrayed in the media.
The purpose of this study was to understand how media practices influenced the
framing of race and gender in the media coverage of Sherrod. In order to integrate key elements of critical
theory (i.e. activism, intersectionality, speaking position, subjectivity) I chose a mixed-methods approach for my
framing analysis. This included open-ended reading of the news stories, constant comparative analysis of possible frames, quantitative coding sheet, analysis of statistics in SPSS, and inclusion of qualitative examples.
I analyzed a total of 93 news articles from 12 news sources for this study. Most of the news stories came from newer, online publications (n=67, 72.0%) and over half came from new sources with a liberal philosophy (n=47, 50.5%). I found three frames that were used to describe Sherrod in terms of race and gender: victim, good woman, and above her place. I also found that these frames were closely aligned with news values that help determine a story’s newsworthiness. I found seven sources were used repetitively and selectively associated with the frames. I also found differences in frames by news source type and philosophy. Finally, I found that the frames followed an identifiable news cycle.
The results of this study show that the media do indeed utilize negative stereotypes of Black women in their products and that media’s use of routine writing and reporting practices exacerbate this problem.

▼ In the past years the usage and growth of social media has increased, through the increase in popularity, growth and use, social media has become an all the more important arena. Politicians need to communicate with the public, where the public is, in order to be elected and right now a large amount of the public is on social media. This research studies how four of the largest political parties in Sweden, Socialdemokraterna, Moderaterna, Sverigedemokraterna and Miljöpartiet, together with an upcoming party Feministiskt initiativ, used social media in the governmental election in Sweden 2014. In order to study how these political parties used social media, the posts made on Facebook and Twitter were selected. The posts were selected from the two weeks leading up to the election. The posts on Twitter had a higher quantitity and were studied through a quantitative content analysis; while the posts on Facebook included richer text and were studied through a qualitative content analysis. The choice to include both a quantitative and a qualitative content analysis were made to give a richer result with a more including picture. The result showed that there is not one universal media logic used by the parties on the posts posted on Facebook and Twitter, however the elements used were the same, but in different extent. One of the parties, Miljöpartiet, had a consequent media logic of all of the selected post made by them on Facebook. On social media political parties become gatekeepers themselves, without relying on journalists to bring forth their ideals, election issues, and topics of importance. On social media the political parties decide what to publish and how to publish it. The political parties frame the topics to benefit themselves and argue for why their approach is the right choice and why the viewer of the post should vote for them.

▼ Global research shows that media owners tend to influence the editorial direction of their newspapers. Such influence generally tends to be in line with the media owner’s economic and / or political interests. Naturally, this is a challenge because media is regarded as the fourth estate and is supposed to be an objective yet effective channel for the citizenry to make informed decisions about their world. The study seeks to find out if the owners of four daily newspapers in South Africa, based on their political proximity; may have influenced their newspapers to be biased in favour or against any of the three biggest political parties contesting the 2016 Local Government Elections. This study is an exploratory and descriptive content analysis based on an Agenda Setting theoretic framework – supported by
framing analysis and game
framing. Findings reveal the correlation between the media owner’s interests and the biased reporting within their respective newspaper. This suggests that although media may not be directly or explicitly forced to adopt a specific ideology, it can be argued that political relations with media owners can influence editorial decisions. Therefore, it can be inferred that media owners of The New Age, The Citizen and The Star influenced editorial content of their newspapers during the 2016 local government elections. Given the findings of this study and the elections scheduled for 2019 in South Africa, it is important for more political communication studies to be conducted in order to establish guidelines for unbiased news reporting across all media – including newspapers. Alternatively, to compel media owners to declare their bias towards and against specific political parties in each news content, upfront. Particularly important during election period, is the need for each media (including newspapers) to have an independent editor – potentially one from the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) to ensure that each piece of content produced is validated as bias or impartial.

▼ This study examined the
framing of serious mental illness (SMI) and gun violence focused on the single case of the 2012 Aurora Theater Shooting perpetrated by James Eagan Holmes. At the time, it was the most devastating mass shooting in U.S. history with 58 injured and 12 killed. The overarching question guiding the study asked how online news stories about the Aurora Theater Shooting frame serious mental illness and mass shootings. A content analysis was conducted on four news websites, two local publications and two national publications. This was designed to detect geographical trends in reporting. Key findings were a lack of causal attribution to SMI or any other cause, which disagreed with former research that found SMI as a commonly-attributed cause to gun violence after mass shootings in news media coverage. Gun restriction policy was found to be more prevalent in national news than in local news suggesting differences in coverage by geographic location. SMI and gun restriction policy proposals did not appear together in stories often pointing to a split in individual- or societal-level responsibility. A final finding was a singular mental health professional source utilized in the 187-story sample suggesting a lack of mental health experts in crime reporting after a mass shooting. Further research could explore the crime beat reporters' source-gathering habits particularly when dealing with crime purveyed by people with SMI as well as a study assessing mental health professionals' views on being used as a source in crime news reporting.

▼ Grounded in framing theory, this thesis presents a quantitative content analysis of newspaper reporting of the Hong Kong protests, also known as the Occupy Central Movement or the Umbrella Revolution, between September 28 and December 11, 2014. The political, economic and legal implications involved have made the protests one of the most newsworthy events in the history of Hong Kong since the transfer of its sovereignty from the United Kingdom to China in 1997. This study aims to examine the various frames used in the coverage of the protests in three major newspapers that operate within different political, economic and ideological boundaries: South China Morning Post, The New York Times, and The Guardian. Results of the content analysis supported the research hypotheses that significant differences existed in the newspapers in their framing of the protests, the protesters, the government, news censorship, and politically sensitive issues. While the frames used by The New York Times and The Guardian were in agreement with the Western democratic-liberal press system, the frames used by South China Morning Post reflected the authoritarian-liberal nature of the Hong Kong press system.

▼ As a protest movement that has attracted international attention, the 2019 Hong Kong protest has become the focus of media and public attention due to political issues involving China mainland and Hong Kong. The reporting process and framing of news media for news events is actually a process of selecting and reorganizing related events. The media of different countries also reported the 2019 Hong Kong Protest like this process. However, the reporting frameworks in different media organizations are also completely different because of the differences in the nature, positioning, and political factors of those media. Based on the framing theory, this research selected the New York Times in the United States, the Southern Metropolis Daily in Mainland China, and the Ming Pao in Hong Kong as the research objects to compare and analyze the differences in news reports on 2019 Hong Kong protests. Content analysis is the main research method. According to actual needs, this research divides the tone of the news into four aspects to analyze the structure of protests, protesters and government. The research results show that there are indeed differences in reports between different media in different countries.

▼ The development of water resources is one of the worldwide issues under climate change. To increase the water supply capacity of Kaohsiung County, the Southern Region Water Resources Office (SRWRO) undertakes subsurface water evaluation and surveys of the Gaoping River basin. During 2012 Water Resource Seminar organized by SRWRO, it emerged that the extraction of subsurface water may negatively affect agricultural water. The SRWRO did not propose a complete explanation for this phenomenon, which led to strong protests by local inhabitants. To solve the water supply problem, the SRWRO commissioned the Takao Green Association (TGA) to communicate with local residents for up to three years. Finally, the SRWRO successfully built a subsurface water prototype. This study aims to examine this subsurface water engineering development controversy as an example of the risk communication model of public construction. Because of the role public participation currently plays in creating public policy, the government needs to apply risk communication in order to win the support of the people affected. Through an analysis of the literature, we find that an examination of risk communication will necessarily include a look at risk types, risk messages, and communication channels, as well as the roles of authorities, intermediary organizations, and the public. By applying the
theory of planned behavior and goal-
framing theory, we would develop a behavior motive model. Research involving semistructured questionnaires and interviews has shown that it is the historic broken promise of commitment that has led to a refusal by the people to consent to water engineering projects.
Through this study, a method of risk communication was developed that can be used to assist the government in promoting public awareness and acceptance of future construction. The method can also solve the need for infrastructure development and the problem of cooperative decision making between the government and the public.

▼ As conflict between humans and black bears (Ursus americanus) increases, researchers and managers look for strategies to decrease this conflict. One main driver of conflict is the availability of anthropogenic food. Bears are attracted to these food sources, conditioning them to continue to seek anthropogenic food and more frequently visit areas where humans are present. When a bear becomes food-conditioned, bears and people are at higher risk. When humans store food properly in bear-proof storage containers, this risk decreases. However, motivating people to comply with proper food storage can be difficult. We hypothesized that promotion- and prevention-framed messaging placed on storage containers would help motivate behavior change. No statistically significant difference was found between message frames. However, we did find support for constructs from the
theory of planned behavior: subjective norms and perceived behavioral control. Results also inform future research on message
framing and field research in park settings to motivate behavior change in visitors.

▼ As newspaper organizations transition to an online environment the question of whether new digital communication methods enhance or diminish the ability of long-form narratives to convey their message coherently and meaningfully is increasingly relevant for both journalism and society. Using concepts related to
framing theory, narratology, and medium
theory, this case study of The New York Times Pulitzer prizewinning online presentation of "now Fall: The Avalanche at Tunnel Creek" analyzes the content, form, and context of its multiple media narrative "three basic structural properties of all communication" to discover how narrative coherence and meaning develop. Results indicate that joining competing media forms in accordance with fundamental narrative construction, presentation, and design principles aids semiotic potential and overall narrative coherence, and mitigates the disruptive effects of technology and interactivity; that the spatial relationships of multiple media constructions contribute to narrativ' ability to tell coherent and meaningful stories; and that a newsroom organizational structure that facilitates a collaborative editing environment enables multi-skilled journalists to produce engaging multimedia narratives despite multiple layers of complexity.

▼ In today’s society, events are used as a mens to achieve a variety of goals,
including increased tourism and economic improvement. Events also offer
opportunities for communication, both through the visitor experience and through the publicity that is generated. In this line of research, an emerging
perspective on events as catalysts of behaviour change has increasingly been
addressed by event scholars and is the focus of this thesis.
Within the marketing discipline, one field that involves behaviour change is
social marketing. Undesired behaviours are targeted for replacement by
alternative behaviours that are considered more beneficial from an individual
and societal perspective. Social marketing can be directed downstream,
which is a direct address of individual behaviours, or upstream, which
considers attempts to influence the behaviours of actors who shape the
environment in which individuals exist.
This thesis describes how downstream social marketing research has shifted
from a traditional perspective of influencing individual consumers’
behaviours through the promotion of ideas to a broader perspective that seeks
to understand consumers’ search for hedonic or social response in relation to
behaviour change. In this direction, this thesis suggests and explores the
construct of the experiencescape in the social marketing research field.
Scholars have suggested that the upstream direction has traditionally been
neglected, and there is a need to advance upstream theory to guide upstream
social marketing. Within upstream social marketing, publicity is recognized
as an important means to influence policy and policy makers. Events’
capacity to generate publicity and awareness of issues can be utilized for
social marketers. To theoretically address this issue, framing theory is
introduced in a social marketing context.
Through the lens of social marketing, this thesis explores how events can be
used to influence behaviour change. A mixed-methods approach is employed
to collect case study data from the perspectives of various stakeholders, for
instance public organizations, visitors, event producers, advocacy groups.
This thesis demonstrates that through the event experience, visitors’ access to
alternative behaviours can be temporarily enhanced. The event experience
comprises a variety of dimensions that can be used to influence individual
consumers’ behaviour. It is argued that experiences of social marketing
products in an event setting that contrasts the mundane have implications for
perceived consumer value and thus for behaviour adoption and maintenance.
It is concluded that events enable social marketing communication beyond
traditional information-based promotion.
The study also explores how framing theory can guide attempts to use
publicity for upstream purposes. As such, this thesis shows how eventgenerated
publicity can be framed and thus can be an approach for social
marketers.
By introducing the theoretical construct of the experiencescape this thesis
contributes to expand the area of social marketing.…

▼ As the frontline to communicate with customers, sales practitioners have long operated under the assumption that the initial impression of the salesperson is an important cue for customers to evaluate the service or product. The babyfaced salespersons are perceived as more trustful than those with mature face, and thus, have a greater impact on producing agreement with the message. Based on the previous research of the babyface effects, we develop hypotheses of how babyfacedness, message
framing and crowding affect product evaluation.
The present study uses experimental design to investigate the effects of the babyfaceness (babyface vs. mature face), message
framing (promotion
framing vs. prevention
framing) and the crowding (crowded vs. uncrowded). A 2x2x2 factorial design is conducted. Eight different scenarios are established and product evaluation is measured.
The results indicate that, a mature-faced salesperson is more effective in using a promotion-framed message than using a prevention-framed message in terms of product evaluation. However, no such difference is found with a babyfaced salesperson. When the shopping environment is uncrowded, a babyfaced salesperson using a prevention-framed message is more effective than that using a promotion-framed message. Opposite results are found with a mature-faced salesperson. When the shopping environment is crowded, a babyfaced salesperson using a promotion-framed message is more effective than that using a prevention-framed message. No such difference is found with a mature-faced salesperson.

▼ New brands often wish to achieve quick brand exposure and provide consumers detailed product information through comparative advertising. Due to the strict regulations of the fair trade laws in Taiwan, when advertisers adopt comparative advertising, they sometimes avoid comparing relative strengths and weaknesses with the rival products in a direct way of confrontation; instead, a fair and objective market average value will be used as a comparison object. In the first part of this study, it explores when the objective market average value has been adopted as a comparison object, or showed in the advertisements with rival products simultaneously, whether it can effectively enhance the objectivity and credibility of the information, value of reference, and advertising effectiveness. This study also discusses the moderating effects of individual regulatory focus. In addition, when considering the increase of comparison objects, the number of comparison objects and the gap between different objects may affect the reference value of comparison objects based on anchoring
theory. Therefore, the study also discusses the impact of the number of comparison objects and the gap between objectsâ performances on advertising effectiveness.
In addition to the comparisons with numbers, texts are also a common way used to compare the pros and cons between different products in practices. Rephrasing the texts often result in the effectiveness of message
framing. In the second part of this study, the focal products and rival products will be represented with the message frames of gains and losses respectively. This study explores the fit effects between message frames and individual regulatory focus. Additionally, the advertising effectiveness of the comparability between two message frames is examined.
Two experiments are conducted to test the hypotheses. Experiment 1 reveals that that the addition of a market average value as a comparison object can enhance advertising effectiveness. Multiple comparison objects (multiple anchors) can lead to better advertising effectiveness than single comparison object (single anchor). Similar performances of comparison objects (high anchor-consistency) can also lead to better advertising effectiveness than dissimilar ones (low anchor-consistency). Consumers with promotion focus are concerned more about if the advertised focal product defeats the rival product. However, consumers with prevention focus are concerned more about if the performances of the advertised product are better than the average market values. Therefore, consumers with promotion focus (prevention focus) respond better to the comparative ads that use the rival product (average market values) as the comparison object. Experiment 2 finds that when the message frames adopted by the two comparative products have high (vs. low) degree of comparability, it will lead to better advertising effectiveness. When the gain frames of the advertised product and the loss frames of the rival product achieve a fit with consumer individual…

▼ The three chapters in this dissertation discuss and test fuzzy-trace
theory's account of riskychoice
framing effects. This account predicts that risky-choice
framing effects occur because of reliance on meaningful, categorical gist representations as opposed to rote, verbatim representations. The second chapter reviews fuzzy-trace
theory's account of decision making from a developmental and memory perspective. This chapter covers the main principles of fuzzy-trace
theory, including independent verbatim and gist representations, the development of these memory processes, task calibration, and the fuzzy-processing preference. This chapter also presents evidence that supports increasing reliance on gist with expertise, by covering work that demonstrated larger
framing effects among intelligence agents as compared to college students. Finally, the chapter makes theoretical and empirical connections between the role of gist in
framing and its role in false memory. The third chapter tests mechanisms hypothesized to underlie within-
subject risky-choice
framing effects. Within-
subject framing effects occur when an individual demonstrates a preference reversal across both gain and loss frames. This chapter examines the role of the goal of cognitive consistency in
framing, discovering that activation of this goal encourages subjects to remain more consistent with the initially presented frame. Second, this chapter shows that higher numeracy predicts smaller within-
subject framing i whereas higher categorical gist thinking predicts larger
framing effects, despite the fact that both measures correlate positively with each other. Finally, we show how true and false memory relate to within-
subject framing, with acceptance of targets (representing individual differences in verbatim processing) supporting resistance to
framing and false memory (representing individual differences in gist-based "false" memory) supporting larger
framing effects. The fourth chapter compares traditional dual-process theories' predictions to those of fuzzy-trace
theory regarding the roles of decision confidence and memory for numerical problem information in predicting between-
subject framing effects. Whereas traditional dual-process theories predict that
framing effects occur because of reliance on fast, associative processes, fuzzy-trace
theory predicts -and results confirm – that
framing effects are due to meaningful gist-based intuition. ii

▼ The orbitofrontal cortex has been speculated to play an important role in the processes that allow emotional factors to influence decision-making. In recent neuroimaging studies, orbitofrontal activity patterns have been linked to
framing bias susceptibility in economic choice-behavior. However, it is still unclear whether orbitofrontal function directly contributes to the emergence of such observed
framing bias. Hence, in the current study, we sought to examine the effect of orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) lesions on
framing bias by investigating economic choice-behavior of twelve OFC lesion patients using a financial decision-making task. Results showed OFC lesion patients exhibit marked reduction in
framing bias, which indicated OFC lesions disrupt processes that adapt choice-behavior to contrasting affective contexts. Furthermore, OFC lesion patients were no more likely than controls to choose the gamble option over the sure option and vice versa in the task overall, which suggested that their reduced
framing bias was neither due to generalized disinhibition of risk-taking tendencies, nor a broad and nonspecific shift in choice-preference irrespective of
framing manipulations. Critically, OFC lesion patients revealed deficits in adjusting their choices according to varying reward magnitude and distinct relative reward values. This study provides key evidence in support of the hypothesis that the orbitofrontal cortex serves a critical role in guiding economic decision-making by integrating salient information about the affective context of potential choices.

▼ Grounded within relational
framing theory, the goal of this thesis is to explore the relational meaning intimate partners attach to sexual fantasy disclosures. The thesis investigates the influence of message factors on the relevance of affiliation and dominance judgments, as well as the association of affiliation and dominance judgments to one another. A scenario study design was utilized in this thesis in which messages were manipulated for the theme of the sexual fantasy scenario, the role of the fantasizer in the sexual fantasy, and the level of message specificity. Messages were first piloted (N = 134) and then presented to a final sample of participants (N = 489). Affiliation judgments and two dimensions of dominance judgments were perceived as relevant in the context of sexual fantasies. Results revealed that fantasy scenario theme and the perceived kinkiness of these themes influence the relevance of relational judgments. There was also evidence to suggest that the level of message specificity influences the strength of the association between the relational judgments. This thesis advances relational
framing theory by examining the relevant relational judgments in the sexual fantasy disclosure context, and the utterance and personal factors that influence these judgments. These findings have implications for the practice of disclosing sexual fantasies to a partner as well as implications for the dimensions of relational judgments in the sexual fantasy disclosure context.

THE RELATIONAL BASIS OF DEMOCRATIC LEGITIMACY.

▼ The democratic quality of a state relies in part upon its citizens’ ability to freely reason on public policy questions (Bohman & Rehg, 1997). Some scholars are concerned that modern societies lack the institutional and civic capacity necessary to become sufficiently deliberative democracies (Nabatchi, 2010). University-based scholars and public-interest organizations have responded by organizing procedural mini-publics, a type of public forum designed to enhance the quality and efficacy of political discourse (Fung, 2003). These deliberative processes differ from informal political conversation by systematically selecting participants and by constraining discourse to achieve normatively desirable outcomes (Bohman & Rehg, 1997, p. xvi).
In this dissertation, I use communication
theory to explain how participants in deliberative processes manage to cooperate even in manifestly adversarial political contexts. I argue that interactions within mini-publics involve an understudied but crucial relational component. Using Relational
Framing Theory (Dillard, Solomon, & Samp, 1996) to inform my investigation, I measure participants’ relational perceptions during a small-group deliberative interaction. I use those data to examine the effect of differential relational judgments on participants’ interactive experiences, reasoning, and legitimacy assessments.
In Chapter 1, I outline deliberation as a political practice and as a
subject of scholarly inquiry. I discuss deliberative democracy as a
theory of legitimate government. I then examine why some empirical social scientists embrace its tenets to guide academic studies of mini-publics as democratic interventions. I describe their features and give examples of the specific problems mini-public organizers intend to solve. I conclude by arguing that the development of procedural democratic deliberation is an attempt to increase political legitimacy.
In Chapter 2, I discuss political legitimacy as the focal concern of deliberative democratic
theory. I define the concept of democratic legitimacy and differentiate four types of deliberative
iv
legitimacy. A central feature of deliberative legitimacy is that it links citizens’ expectations about democratic norms with their experiences of communicative interaction. My central argument is that deliberative
theory implies that legitimacy has a communicative basis. Thus, in Chapter 3, I consider how communication
theory may inform deliberation
theory.
In Chapter 3, I argue that the communicative aspect of small-group deliberation is under-theorized. Communication scholars have described this problem as the “‘black box’ of deliberation,” in which scholars assume without evidence that dialogue under conditions of deliberative interaction produces democratically desirable outcomes (Mutz, 2008, p. 530; Stromer-Galley & Muhlberger, 2009, p. 174). Solving this problem requires theorizing based on foundational understandings of human communication. Thus, I draw on the concept of relational information processing, as articulated through…

▼ Chief diversity officers (CDOs) at U.S. colleges and universities assume complex roles and responsibilities designed to address issues of diversity, access, equity, and inclusion in higher education. Tasked with advancing diversity and inclusion, and most recently, alleviating race-based campus tensions, CDOs must utilize multiple strategies to build relationships, secure allies, and convince higher education constituents that diversity benefits higher education in multiple ways. This dissertation study examined how CDOs accomplish these complicated tasks through strategic communication. Grounded in
framing theory and critical race
theory (CRT), this study investigated how CDOs in higher education communicated (framed) the importance and relevance of diversity in higher education through general discourse, in annual diversity reports, and following a diversity-based campus incident. Because social media increasingly influences race relations on college campuses, this study also investigated how CDOs' constituents adopt or contest diversity frames on social media.
To document dominant framings used by CDOs in higher education, a textual analysis of in-depth interview data (N=19), annual diversity reports (N=4), and social media related to the institutions the CDOs represented, was conducted. The analysis found that CDOs in higher education predominantly use the inclusive excellence and the metric frames, coupled with subframes and diverse frame dimensions, to advance diversity in higher education. Specifically, these frames were used to garner support and achieve buy-in from their White constituents. The social media analysis suggested that CDOs' higher education constituents predominantly contest diversity and inclusion frames and proclaim persistent racism exists at U.S. colleges and universities.
The analysis also identified that exclusive excellence frame CDOs use to communicate to racial/ethnic minority students that racism occurs in higher education following a race-based incident. Using this frame, CDOs communicate to racial/ethnic students at predominantly White institutions that they must rely on resiliency and patience to succeed in higher education. To build these frames, CDOs rely on their academic degrees, professional development personal experiences, and mediators such as campus administrators to advance diversity and inclusion.

▼ Climate change is one of the most pressing and contentious policy problems in the U.S. as well as around the world. As a result, researchers continue to focus on understanding why the public and policy-makers hold divergent perceptions and opinions on the issue. One of the prominent theoretical frameworks scholars have applied to uncover how and why the public disagrees about the issue of climate change are the related frameworks of cultural
theory and cultural cognition. The value orientations associated with these frameworks have a proven history of explaining variation in opinion and risk perception across a range of science and environmental risks. However, research integrating these theoretical frameworks with mass media effects frameworks remains under-theorized. For members of the “lay” public, as well as for stakeholders and decision-makers, the news media serves as a primary source for information on the issue of climate change, and thus an important context for examination. In this dissertation, I integrate the theoretical frameworks of cultural
theory and cultural cognition with mass media effects frameworks. Reviewing this past research (Chapter 2), I describe the changes in the mass media environment over the last several decades, including the rise and influence of politically slanted media sources, and the implications for public perceptions on climate change. I present an overview of the origins of the cultural
theory and cultural cognition framework, and describe their application to
framing, narratives, and selective exposure research. Building on this integration of existing research, across two empirical studies I attempt to answer a series of core research questions, including: (1) How are culturally consistent or antagonistic cues embedded within different frames of reference? (2) Do cultural worldviews relate to news media choices? (3) Does a respondent’s cultural worldview bias the influence of politically slanted media use on their climate change concern? In a first study (Chapter 3), I rely on quantitative content analysis as well as qualitative discourse analysis to examine how cultural worldviews relate to news media frames. By examining politically slanted media coverage in the U.S. from 2011 to 2014, I show the prominence of frames and cultural appeals across media outlets, as well as demonstrate that specific cultural appeals are more likely to appear with specific frames of reference. I found that right-leaning media outlets were overall more likely to contain Individualistic and/or Hierarchical appeals, while left-leaning media outlets were overall more likely to contain Communitarian and/or Egalitarian appeals. More specifically, I found that Hierarchical and/or Individualistic appeals were more likely to appear with the political conflict frame, while Egalitarian and/or Communitarian appeals were more likely to appear with the disaster/risk, human security, and morality/ethics frame. The science frame, however, did not have any cultural appeal consistently appearing with it.…

▼ The U.S. media frame news stories with certain keywords, sources, themes, tones, and concepts that influence what media consumers think about and how they think about certain issues or public figures, particularly international issues and leaders. In order to examine media
framing of the late Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, this qualitative content analysis compares media coverage in the liberal The New York Times and the conservative The Washington Times during the last year of the Bush administration and the first year of the Obama administration. By utilizing
framing theory and Robert Entman's definition of political
framing, this study explores how article themes, tones, and sources may differ among newspapers and may differ during different U.S. presidential administrations. This study suggests that U.S media often reflect the views of the American president and government, that a change in presidential administrations did affect how Chavez is portrayed in the U.S. newspapers, and that different newspapers framed the Venezuelan president differently.
