Older Adults’ Understanding of Covid-19 and Successful Aging
COVID-19 heightened the uncertainty of aging, mainly because older adults were considered most vulnerable to the virus's effects. This study utilized the Communicative Ecology Model of Successful Aging (CEMSA) as a framework to understand the intersection of aging, COVID-19, and communication. In-depth interviews were conducted to explore the nuanced accounts given by fourteen eligible participants from Ghana and Uganda to understand their commun…
Respect or ambivalence
Undergraduate students often view and define terms differently than faculty and scholars. Differences in the operationalization of terms can lead to miscommunication and misunderstanding, especially within university classrooms. The present study used the theoretical framework of sensemaking to understand how undergraduate students perceived and defined inclusion in university classrooms. Through the facilitation of eight focus groups (N = 50), w…
Impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on suicide-related risk among college students
This study aimed to investigate the factors contributing to suicide-related risks among college students during a stressful life event, specifically the COVID-19 pandemic. Employing a Classification and Regression Tree (CART) model, data from 808 college students were analyzed, revealing key interactions and predictive insights into suicide-related risk. Results indicated that preexisting depression emerged as the most significant risk factor, fo…
Multiple risk factors of substance use among lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) adults
The aim of this study was to identify and compare risk factors of substance use between heterosexual and LGB adults. Using data from the 2020 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), Chi-square, t-test, and standard multiple regressions were employed to analyze the data. The findings showed that LGB participants had significantly higher experiences with substances and initiated substance use earlier than heterosexual participants. Some ris…
The importance, significance, and relevance of communication
The results of this study argue that communication, and specifically oral communication education, is critical to students’ future personal and professional success. Similar to three earlier studies, thematic analysis of 2,155 articles, identified in academic and popular press publications extending from 2016 to 2020, provides support for the centrality of the communication discipline’s content and pedagogy. These results reinforce the importance…
OK Boomer
“OK boomer,” is a viral phrase used by members of Generation Z to dismiss the opinions of older adults. Given the rise in usage of and the varied reactions to the phrase, it is important to understand how, “OK boomer,” was portrayed in print media. To do so, news articles from the New York Times (NYT), Wall Street Journal (WSJ), and Washington Post (WaPo) that were printed during October 2019-February 2020 were collected. After organizing the dat…
Outcomes of a Bundled Intervention Approach
Those in the field of social work education are continuously looking for methods to enhance the production of competent, effective MSWs. One approach is to provide enhanced training programs to select groups of students. Historically, research on these programs has been limited other than for Title IV-E programs. The current study assesses a Behavioral Health Workforce Education and Training Program project. A mixed methods approach was used to e…
“It gives you a better chance of getting a good job”
Higher education has been commodified as neoliberal ideology is reflected in and perpetuated through social discourses, such as memorable messages. These discourses socialize young adults to college and shape their understanding about the purpose of higher education. Through in-depth interviews with 20 first-year college students, we found that the memorable messages students received from their family, peers, and high school teachers reinforce t…
Rethinking graduate student socialization and identification
Old age scares me”
Navigating Ethical Quandaries with Close Personal Contacts in Qualitative Research
There are a variety of ethical situations that qualitative communication researchers must navigate. This point is especially true when the research involves close personal contacts, such as friends and family members. In order to problematize the ethical frameworks that guide qualitative inquiry and illuminate the complexities of relational ethics, we—the authors—reflected on our past experiences engaging in research with close personal contacts.…
An Organizational Socialization Perspective on Young Adults’ Ideas About Retirement
This study drew from literature on organizational socialization, namely an early phase called vocational anticipatory socialization (VAS), to examine the sources of information from which young adults learn about retirement, the meanings they ascribe to retirement, and associations between sources of retirement information and meanings. In study 1, quantitative content analysis was used to code 671 responses from young adults. In study 2, semi-st…
Exploring the role of communication in the aging in place experience
Aging in place (AIP), or older adults' ability to remain in their homes and communities as they age, is an important social issue given the growing aging population. Communication is a central component of this process, yet little is known about how communicative resources are used by residents to co-construct community as they age. In order to address this topic, a quasi-ethnographic study of a local neighborhood was completed using communicatio…
I Second That Emotion
Course administrators hold a unique position in academe-one that requires high levels of emotion management as part of the job. This research utilized a collaborative autoethnography to explore how workplace emotions were experienced in the basic communication course. The experiences were presented through vignettes written and analyzed by seven course administrators from programs across the United States. Four themes emerged from the vignettes: …
Applying a life course perspective to retirement
Retiring is a lifelong process that is socially constructed through ongoing interaction with others. However, communication scholars have paid relatively little attention to exploring retirement processes. In this manuscript we contend that applying a life course perspective to twenty first century retirement research illuminates important avenues for future communication scholarship. Specifically, we thematically analyze published retirement res…
Embracing the Opportunities of an Older Workforce
The workforce is becoming more intergenerational as older adults work later in life, and this demographic reality has implications for organizations and employees alike. Although there are negative stereotypes that plague the older worker, there are also opportunities that coincide with an increasingly “gray” workforce. One such benefit is the improved ability to manage emotionally laborious situations, which is especially important in the curren…
When the Lord builds the house
Religion is often perceived as a private topic, thus belonging outside the traditional conceptualization of a work environment. However, religion is a pervasive organizing framework and an understanding of its role in the workplace is needed from a communicative perspective. In the following autoethnography, I describe my experience working for a Christian for-profit homebuilder – starting with new employee orientation and moving through my final…
