Abstract:

This study aims to investigate how the choice of media form, i.e. printed format, audiobook or reading and audio combined, affect the ability of ESL students to achieve comprehension, and how different ways of asking questions can affect their comprehension ability. Lastly, the study aims to investigate the relationship between comprehension and students’ proficiency levels in their L2. To answer this question, 155 students were recruited and divided into three groups and assigned one type of media form. The quantitative data was collected through an online comprehension test and analysed. The

Abstract:

The main focus in this thesis is text-based watermarking: that means embedding a secter payload of bits into a text, while keeping the text as unaltered as possible to make it harder to identifiy that a watermark happened at all. Using two Google Workplace add-ons we explore the efficacy, the ease of use and the portability of three structural watermarking techniques: Homoglyph-based watermarking, Space coloring-based watermarking and Grayscale based Watermarking. The latter two are techniques developed specifically for this thesis. Another important focus is the use of the Digital Object Iden

Abstract:

This thesis aims to perform named entity recognition for English social media texts. Named Entity Recognition (NER) is applied in many NLP tasks as an important preprocessing procedure. Social media texts contain lots of real-time data and therefore serve as a valuable source for information extraction. Nevertheless, NER for social media texts is a rather challenging task due to the noisy context. Traditional approaches to deal with this task use hand-crafted features but prove to be both time-consuming and very task-specific. As a result, they fail to deliver satisfactory performance.

Self-harm is a global public health challenge and the UK has one of the highest rates of self-harm across Europe. There is evidence to suggest that a large number of people are representing their self-harm online. Research on self-harm and the internet is an emerging field of inquiry which so far has focussed on whether social media use for self-harm is helpful or harmful. The aims of this research were to explore images tagged as self-harm on three social media platforms to identify what was being posted, to explore the meaning of images in relation to what they say about reasons for self-har

Abstract:

The way we formulate headlines matters -- this is the central tenet of this thesis. Headlines play a key role in attracting and engaging online audiences. With the increasing usage of mobile apps and social media to consume news, headlines are the most prominent -- and often the only -- part of the news article visible to readers. Earlier studies examined how readers' preferences and their social network influence which headlines are clicked or shared on social media. However, there is limited research on the impact of the headline text on social media popularity. To address this research gap

Abstract:

Online news has grown in frequency and popularity as a convenient source of information for several years. A result of this drastic surge is the increased competition for viewer-ship and prolonged relevance of online news websites. Higher demands by internet audiences have led to the use of sensationalism such as ‘clickbait’ articles or ‘fake news’ to attract more viewers. The subsequent shift in the journalistic approach in new media opened new opportunities to study the behaviour and intent behind the news content. As news publications cater their news to a specific target audience, conclusi

The subject of this master's thesis is how digitisation changes the understanding of textual archival matter. Drawing on document theory and media theory, the concept of digitisation is analysed as remediation, the repro - duction of one medium in another. A key theoretical assumption is that digitisation is not a neutral process, and conceptualising digitisation as remediation is a way of analysing the changed charasteristics of archival matter when represented in another medium. A tentative model for analysing remediated archival matter is presented, identifying three aspects or dimensions a

This dissertation is concerned with adaptation, in the context of new emerging digital media platforms. The project proposes that new media has allowed for the creation of a universal digital heteroglossia; a heteroglossia that contains the plurality of the unstable utterances of cinema, radio, television, the web and computer games. This has allowed for the process of adaptation to become more instantaneous in the simultaneous deployment of narratives across the digital heteroglossia. Therefore, the process of adaptation is far more dialogical, with previous variants of narratives being ‘rewi

Abstract:

Intercultural Communication Competence (ICC) describes the ability to interact with people from different cultures effectively and appropriately. In the impact of globalization and information technology development, social media facilitates intercultural communication and open a new space for intercultural interactions. As the impact of social media on ICC is not often explored, this study would shed light on this unexplored domain and focus on Chinese people who currently live in Sweden by asking the question: How does social media influence the ICC of Chinese people living in Sweden?

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to explore advertising and in particular advertising reception as a significant part of contemporary social practice. Although advertising in some form has been a feature of a wide range of societies, historically and culturally, its economic and social importance has perhaps never been greater. Advertising, across the industrial period and in particular since the Second World War, has through the entrenchment of market economies and the development of different media technologies increased its reach and density through a variety of means. It has become a significant m

Abstract:

This study examined how social anxiety, gender, and mode of presentation influenced miscommunication and perception of negativity in children’s interpretation of computer-mediated messages. The initial phase of the research involved developing and validating the stimuli for emotion recognition via presentation of various emotionally toned messages. Following preparation of the stimuli, the 98 participants (aged 8-12 years) in the main study were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: audio-visual, audio-only, and text message. The same emotionally toned messages were presented in each o

Abstract:

I denna studie undersöker jag hur svenskämnet på gymnasiet lever upp till syftet som säger att eleverna i undervisningen ska få läsa andra texter än enbart skönlitterära och vars innehåll ska sättas i relation till elevernas egna intressen och erfarenheter. Texterna ska också vara en källa till självinsikt, utmana eleverna till nya tankesätt och öppna upp för nya perspektiv. Det blev därför intressant att undersöka om/hur texter av olika slag påverkar unga människors identitetsbyggande inom svenskämnet. Samtidigt visar tidigare forskning att skolan är dålig på att ta tillvara elevers medieerfa

Abstract:

Einerseits werden bestehende Ergebnisse aus so unterschiedlichen Richtungen wie etwa der empirischen Medienforschung und dem Text Mining zusammengetragen. Es geht dabei um Inhaltsanalyse, von Hand, mit Unterstützung durch Computer, oder völlig automatisch, speziell auch im Hinblick auf die Faktoren wie Zeit, Entwicklung und Veränderung. Die Verdichtung und Zusammenstellung liefert nicht nur einen Überblick aus ungewohnter Perspektive, in diesem Prozess geschieht auch die Synthese von etwas Neuem. Die Grundthese bleibt dabei immer eine einschließende: So wenig es möglich scheint, dass in Zukun
