Abstract:
This research explores the information behaviour in a UK policing context with a focus on how social media influences their everyday work practice. More specifically it focuses on the policing of low-level crime and anti-social behaviour. Police tasks vary from structured and routine, to environments that are uncertain, complex and time pressured. Digital technologies such as social media have the potential to disrupt and destabilise existing work activities through the way people communicate, interact and share information. This is particularly the case for information intensive organisations

Abstract:
Using a 'plausibility probe' construct, this study empirically evaluates the direct role of media in a democratic transition by examining the relationship between media use in different media environments and the effects of particular media usage on the development of democratic political culture across time in a post-Soviet republic. The study employs a participatory- deliberative theoretical model of democracy and the concept of political culture as comprised by the distribution of political attitudes and behaviour within a society. The study consists of three principal elements: a qualitati

With modern communication technology advancements, activist expression has become more common on social media platforms. Especially susceptible to these expressions is the millennial generation, whose lives are greatly permeated by media technology.

Through mixed-method research design, participants’ attitudes towards Facebook as a platform for activism and its inuence on prosoci

Abstract:
Social media is playing a significant role in our everyday life. New tools are emerging everyday and offer the users exciting opportunities. Not just ordinary people use social media.It became very popular among companies, politicians and government. But using social media does not guarantee one instant success and benefits. The right appliance of social media technologies can do wonders. Barack Obama brilliantly illustrated that during his presidential campaign in 2008.In 2012 social media technology was yet again at the heart of the Obama’s campaign. His challenger, Mitt Romney, also engaged

Abstract:
Those involved with the management of the countryside have an imperative to understand the drivers of behaviour towards it. This is particularly so, since the UK population is largely urban-based and yet still retains an attachment to green open spaces and engagement with the pastoral scene (DEFRA, 2009; Natural England, 2016). The media has been recognised as playing an important role in sustaining this attachment but its relative influence compared to the role of the family, other social groups and education is less well understood in this context. The aim of this research is to provide a me

Abstract:
Research has shown that sexual content is prevalent in television programming and that this content can have an effect on the viewer's attitudes about sex. This study examined this relationship within the theoretical framework of cultivation and social cognitive theories. This study used a survey to examine these relationships in young students at a large southeastern university. The researchers targeted freshmen, many in their first semester, for this study to get the best measure of attitudes, before they were influenced by college life. In addition to examining the effects of television vie
