It offers fresh insights into Shakespeare's understanding of the attributes of fame, the process by which it occurs, and the significance of being famous—and into the origins and nature of the playwright's own imperishable fame. Inclusive and enlarging, the study co…

The Korean press and Hwang’s fraud

Nineteen journalists, who covered Hwang’s story for five of South Korea’s leading daily newspapers, were interviewed. The interviewees added insights about the news coverage of the Hwang scandal not identified in previous literature, such as the difficult…

Prevailing Impressions of Social Actors in Korean News Coverage of a Public Health Crisis
A content analysis of coverage of a Korean public health crisis from September 1999 to December 2000 explored four hypotheses regarding how major social actors were depicted within two national newspapers,Chosun Ilbo , a conservative daily, andHankyoreh , a more liberal, youthoriented daily. The findings failed to support any of the four hypotheses. The coverage of major actors tended to range from unfavorable inHankyoreh to equivocal inChosun Il…
Elite Sources, Context, and News Topics
A content analysis of the coverage of a public health crisis in Korea from September 1999 to December 2000 explored six hypotheses about news reporting and topic selection mostly derived from qualitatively based literature. The findings suggest that two Korean daily newspapers (Chosun Ilbo andHankyoreh) emphasized governmental officials and physicians as news sources, underemphasized other news sources, and limited in-depth reporting. The study’s…

Science Mass Communication
This article provides a conceptual history of science mass communication, which is seen as divided into the scientific literacy and interactive science traditions. The origins of the ideas that underlie the scientific literacy and interactive science traditions, as well as some of the issues researchers have raised, are introduced. The author argues the two traditions are not mutually exclusive, although the interactive tradition is a response to…
Prevailing Impressions in Science and Medical News
In a content analysis, the authors assess the prevailing impressions toward social actors in the coverage of science and biomedical news in the Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post during biennial periods from 1989 to 1995. The social actors and outcome variables studied were favorability toward science and medical professionals, the health care delivery system, science and medicine as social institutions, industry, government, and public in…
Science and Medical Coverage in the Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post
A content analysis of the science, medical, and environmental news reported in the Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post in biennial periods from 1989 to 1995 explored seven hypotheses about science reporting, news selection, and writing that were derived from the qualitatively based literature. Outcome variables were the percentage of news stories that are generated by events or are episodically generated, of news stories that are generated …
Concurrent Validity of the WPPSI—R and the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities
The concurrent validity of the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence—Revised (WPPSI—R) and the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities was assessed with 32 preschool and kindergarten children. The correlations of .70, .73, and .81 between the McCarthy General Cognitive Index and WPPSI—R IQs on the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scales were significantly different from zero. There were no differences among the three WPPSI—R means and…
Relationships between Scores on Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence—Revised and Stanford-Binet IV
The Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence--Revised and the Stanford Binet-Intelligence Scale: Fourth Edition were given to 51 preschool, kindergarten, first, and second grade students. Twelve of 15 Pearson correlations between Wechsler IQs and composite and area scores of the Stanford-Binet IV were statistically significant. It is apparent that the two tests measure similar, but not identical, concepts
USA today's innovations and their impact on journalism ethics
This paper surveys some of the innovations introduced by USA Today during its first three and one‐half years of publication. It finds that USA Today's innovations in design, market research, and news have not been widely accepted because these approaches have raised significant ethical dilemmas to many journalists. Professional reservations about USA Today are discussed as well as some of the newspaper's advances in color reproduction, use of inf…
Some Considerations in the Diffusion of Medical Technologies
This paper examines the lack of acceptance of computerized patient and medical records systems by the medical community in the United States. In the taxonomy of diffusion theory, medical information systems are classified as a radical-instrumental, equipment-embodied technology. Medical information systems represent an anomaly in the history of medical technology because their relative nonacceptance in hospitals and clinics throughout the United …
