When society is viewed in a social constructive manner, the social worker is as affected as the general population by the media and the image it portrays. A prejudice or bias social worker will not be as effective in his work as his intentions are. The purpose of this thesis was to discover if there are any visible cultural differences in the usage and description of the concept of psychopathy or a psychopath himself in the media, more specifically, daily newspapers. There are three American newspapers and three Swedish newspapers examined in this study. The study is based on a quantiative con

<p>Fear has found its latest instrument in the news media. The discourse of fear in news presentations produces gasping meanings, which we can compellingly indulge in.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the extent to which Fox News tends to use, and further reproduce, the fear discourse to form identities and meaning. The method utilized in this thesis is frame analysis, which is a form of discourse analysis. The primary results indicate that Fox News

Abstract:

Personality and assessments have important practical applications within the work domain (Salgado, 2017) making it important to examine the work-relevancy of personality descriptions. Generally-developed personality assessments have been useful for examining personality at work but modifying the assessment instructions enhances the work-contextualisation, allowing for responses that correspond more closely with work behaviours (Shaffer & Postlethwaite, 2012). The findings from cross-cultural research studies (Church, 2016) suggest that the work-relevance of personality may be further enhanced

Though brands are created and maintained using many different management strategies, market and academic research has offered evidence that brands presenting the strongest personalities are more likely to perform better and resonate longer with consumers.

Extended from previous research, the current study demonstrated the utility of the CRT-RMS with a sample of 186 college students in Korea.

The purpose of this dissertation is to explore the relationships between mobile social media use, personality and loneliness. Snapchat, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and texting were studied. Undergraduate students (N = 352) were given a survey to assess how they use social media generally, loneliness and personality traits, as well as how they used social media in specific relationships in their life—with a strong, close tie, and with a more casual acquaintance. A state of “phoneliness” is proposed where an individual’s social media use contributes to feelings of loneliness, which then in turn
