Women Leaders' Discursive Constructions of Leadership
This narrative survey explores 15 women leaders' discursive representations of leadership. Two themes emerged in the narratives: making a positive contribution to the world and behaving ethically. These themes create a moral discourse of leadership. The findings suggest adding purpose and scene to the dimensions of leadership that are subject to ethical considerations, and developing a model of leadership ethics based on a feminist ethic of care

Sex Differences in Uses and Perceptions of Obscenity
Leonard Bloomfield long ago cited obscenity as a major form of tabu language because its connotations somehow reflect social improprieties.1 Despite the freer flow of obscene language during the past two decades, we often are reminded that it retains its taboo qualities.

For all participants, the most important motives cited for using obscenity were 'psychological'. In addition, females w…

There were three research questions: (1) How does the language of the characters correspond to the language of black speech communities as described by socio‐linguists…
The 1980 republican primary debates
Using a Burkeian perspective, the authors focus on the six debates during the 1980 Republican primary and argue that Ronald Reagan was transformed from actor to scene via two strategies: (1) “featuring” in verbal and visual “frames,” and (2) “thematic envelopment” of the other candidates.
