This study of MSWatch.com provides conceptual distinctions about `ties' to a `community' and raises questions about communications designed to serve patients with Multiple Sclerosis.

Group Affiliations, Opinion Polarization, and Global Organizations: Views of the World Trade Organization Before and After Seattle
Group affiliation plays a key role in shaping individual opinions on public policy issues. Understanding group-related differences may be important for global organizations that depend on broad public acceptance of their policies. Research indicates that people's opinions become polarized to match perceived opinions of their group and that media reports may signal normative opinions group members should adopt. Surveys administered before and afte…
The Spiral of Silence and Public Opinion on Affirmative Action
This study sought to more fully explicate the key variables involved in Noelle-Neumann's spiral of silence theory, which states that fear of isolation keeps individuals from expressing opinions perceived to be in the minority. We tested the theory in the context of public discussion about affirmative action policies, a domain seemingly ideal due to its moral and value-laden characteristics. Data from 217 randomly selected adults in October 1998 i…
Mass communication and public understanding of environmental problems: The case of global warming
Public understanding of global warming, also known as global climate change, is treated here as an example of a mass communication problem that has yet to be adequately solved. A survey of metropolitan area residents found that although people are aware of this problem in a general sense, understanding of particular causes, possible consequences, and solutions is more limited. Both mass media and interpersonal communication appear to make a posit…

This article raises new questions about the process of migration integration into a new community. What are the paths of integration?And what makes a difference in the paths that are taken? The major findings—that three major paths can be distinguished and that life cycle variables make the most diference in path taken—are interpreted in light of various theoretical explanations of the integration process. The predictions of other theoretical per…
Balancing Business with Journalism: Newsroom Policies at 12 West Coast Newspapers
Journalists from 12 daily newspapers, surveyed on-site, confirmed what newspaper industry analysts have noted: Newspapers are becoming more reader-oriented and market driven. This is particularly true of group newspapers which, on nearly every level of measurement, showed a stronger market-oriented management. But there are some indications that greater devotion to business principles does not always come at the expense of good journalism and tha…

How Much Do They Read in the Daily Newspaper: A Measurement Study
Communication and Coorientation of Collectivities
Communication Behavior and Coorientational Relations
A new model of cognitive processes in interpersonal communication is explicated, resulting in a redefinition of the concept of coorientational accuracy. Three experiments are reported in which the accuracy state is treated as an antecedent condition to various types of communication behaviors. The results of these experiments show differences in the communication behavior subsequent to the four accuracy states defined in the proposed model
