Impact Measures of the Article Headlines-Factual Proposition in the Delfi.lt Portal

The object of the article is article headlines of the internet news portal Delfi.lt: factual statements containing the mentioning of a person by their name, surname or pseudonym. A headline is perceived as a complex representative unit, where a complex means, namely, employing accompanying notes and illustrations, and is used to achieve its main functions: to inform and affect. The aim of the article is to identify the effect of factual statements employed in headlines, which the statements have on the person mentioned and how they serve in drawing the readers’ attention. The material for the analysis was collected from the internet news portal Delfi.lt. A total of 191 headlines including the illustrations were looked into. The analysis comprised not only the evaluation of the headlines but also the articles in their entirety, including illustrations and commentaries. The qualitative analysis of headlines as factual statements was carried out in three aspects: description of a person, naming the action performed by the person, and the relationship of the person and the illustration. The research revealed that the headlines of the internet news portal Delfi.lt often employ a person as a means of drawing the readers’ attention as well as illustrations as a means of conveying visual information complementing the headlines. It turned out that in the headlines taking the form of a factual statement, the readers’ attention is mostly drawn by the information of negative nature where the accompanying expressive illustrations present well- known persons, mainly Lithuanian politicians, businessmen, and sportsmen. Descriptions of a person exert no influence on the popularity of the article in cases where people well known to society are referred to but are of particular importance when dealing with much less known people. Expressions in the past simple tense are attractive to the readers since the expressions provide a possibility, based on the facts presented, to design potential consequences on one’s own. Expressive headlines with accompanying expressive illustrations, where the presented scene does not only specify the idea of the headline but also complements it with intriguing meanings, enjoy the highest popularity. Therefore, headlines and illustrations kindle the readers’ emotions and encourage them to interpret their own meanings.

Social media tools allow the engagement of material in novel formats and the extension of our content beyond individuals who traditionally interact with print and online media. Our goals are to increase the reach of our content, to translate our content into small “bites” to users who may be on the go, and to provide different forms of interaction that may appeal to a diverse host of users.We have taken a 3-pronged approach to the social media campaign. First, we created a Facebook page where we post news headlines of key articles on a daily basis; become our fan by searching and “liking” Circulation in the Facebook browser. On Facebook, we also post Circulation image challenges, ECG challenges, and mini-cases, which are interactive for our users. Each case, ECG, or image is always followed by a detailed answer the next day. Much of this content is unique and can be accessed only on our Facebook site. In addition to Facebook, we have a Twitter feed (follow us @CircAHA). On a daily basis, we tweet out important news headlines and alert Twitter followers to exciting new content. Third, we have launched a blog called “OpenHeart” (http://openheart.circulationjournal.org). The blog will feature blog panelists and commentary on important Circulation articles. We will also warehouse our ECG challenges and image challenges here, making this a great resource for learning, making morning rounds, or quickly identifying content for case-based learning sessions.Finally, we created a Social Media thematic series to introduce our readers to various aspects of this emerging field. First, Katherine Chretien and Terry Kind have written an important piece entitled, “Social Media and Clinical Care: Ethical, Professional, and Social Implications,” which serves as a road map for using social media tools with professionalism. Second, Damien Centola has written a review entitled, “Social Media and the Science of Health Behavior.” This article highlights the exciting new field of social media science and the way in which social media networks can be used to understand better the social and environmental origins of health and disease. Finally, R. Craig LeFebvre and Alexandra Bornkessel have written an article on the use of social media as a means to transmit public health messages and as a tool for behavior change. This represents an exciting use of these new tools in that transmission of public health messages and positive behaviors may be best achieved through an individual’s network of friends. At Circulation and the Circulation family of journals, we are interested in scholarly articles that showcase novel and important uses of these new digital media tools in the field of cardiovascular health.In addition to improving the experience for readers, we are interested in measuring the impact of using social media for readers and followers. Thus, we will be tracking our use statistics carefully. We are also interested in hearing from you about ideas you might have to improve the Circulation social media experience. Please e-mail us directly at [email protected] We will feature new ideas on our Facebook and Twitter sites. We are also currently accepting applications for our blog panel. If you are interested in applying, please send a curriculum vitae and 2-paragraph writing sample on a recent Circulation article to the e-mail address above and specify “blog panelist” in the subject line.The field of social media is constantly evolving, which will require us to be nimble and flexible to make optimal use of evolving trends and technology. Ultimately, we envision a highly interactive site that can serve as a network and warehouse for the leading ideas and cutting-edge science in cardiovascular health.Caroline S.

Media Language: Equivalence in the Translation of Headlines

Equivalence is the leading subject in translation studies; accordingly, many different theories on equivalence have been discussed in detail within this field over the past few decades. Equivalence in translation is affected by many different aspects, i.e., aspects of meaning between words and expressions, grammar and participants in various communicative situations, semantics, pragamtics, etc. The concept of equivalence with the focus on equivalence degrees is provided; the overview and characterization of the main features as well as specifics of translation of media language (headlines in particular) are presented in the article as well. The paper focuses on the equivalence in translation of media language, headlines of on-line news articles in particular, since headlines are considered as crucial and the most important part of news articles. One hundred English headlines and their Lithuanian translations have been selected for the analysis which is performed according to the degrees of equivalence: optimum translation, partial equivalence, zero equivalence. Partial equivalence is divided into two narrower subtypes which are: near-optimum and weak translation.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.sal.0.21.2839

Early event-related brain potentials that reflect interest for content information in the media

This study investigated the relationship between event-related brain potentials (ERPs) to abridged content information in the media and the subsequent decisions to view the full content. Student volunteers participated in a task that simulated information selection on the basis of the content information. Screenshots of television clips and headlines of news articles on the Web were used as content information for the image condition and the headline condition, respectively. Following presentation of a stimulus containing content information, participants decided whether or not they would view the full content by pressing a select or a reject button. When the select button was pressed, participants were presented with a television clip or a news article. When the reject button was pressed, participants continued on to the next trial, without viewing further. In comparison with rejected stimuli, selected stimuli elicited a larger negative component, with a peak latency of ∼250 ms. The increase in the negative component was independent of the type of visual stimulus. These results suggest that interest toward content information is reflected in early-stage event-related brain potential responses.

Management of Asymptomatic Inguinal Hernia

To establish a literature-based surgical approach to asymptomatic inguinal hernia (IH). PubMed, the Cochrane Library database, Embase, national guidelines (including the National Library of Guidelines Specialist Library), National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence guidelines, and the National Research Register were searched for prospective randomized trials comparing surgical treatment of patients with asymptomatic IH with conservative treatment. The literature search retrieved 216 article headlines, and these articles were analyzed. Of those studies, a total of 41 articles were found to be relevant and 2 large well-conducted randomized controlled studies that published their results in several articles were reviewed. The pain and discomfort, general health status, complications, and life-threatening events of patients with asymptomatic IH managed by surgery or watchful waiting were determined. No significant difference in pain scores and general health status were found when comparing the patients who were followed up with the patients who had surgery. A significant crossover ratio ranging between 23% and 72% from watchful waiting to surgery was found. In patients with watchful waiting, the rates of IH strangulation were 0.27% after 2 years of follow-up and 0.55% after 4 years of follow-up. In patients who underwent elective surgery, the range of operative complications was 0% to 22.3% and the recurrence rate was 2.1%. Both treatment options for asymptomatic IH are safe, but most patients will develop symptoms (mainly pain) over time and will require operation.

“Quotations” in headlines: their analysis in two German regional newspapers as a contribution to the topic of language usage in the media / „Zitate“ in Schlagzeilen: eine medienlinguistische Untersuchung am Beispiel zweier deutscher Regionalzeitungen

Based on a corpus of articles from two regional subscription newspapers representing the most widespread type of daily papers in Germany, this contribution analyses quotations in headlines of press articles and their relation to the corresponding sequences in the text body, thus focussing on the quotations’ intratextual reference quality. It turns out, that a considerable part of these “quotations” shows modifications of the formulations given in the text body. How the modifications are actually formed is modelled by a five-stage scale, and which functions they fulfil is illustrated by selected examples.

도서관 서비스 품질평가 도구로서 LibQUAL+TM에 대한 재평가

도서관 서비스 품질평가 도구인LibQUAL+TM에 대한 많은 연구논문이 발표되었으나, LibQUAL+TM 요인과 도서관 서비스 이용의도 사의의 관계를 연구한 사례는 매우 드물다. 본 논문은 Icek Ajzen의 계획적 행위이론을 적용하여 도서관 서비스 이용의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 추출하고자 하였다. 이러한 요인을 추출하기 위하여 미국 대학생을 대상으로 웹 설문을 실시하였고, 요인분석 및 다중회귀분석을 통하여 수집된 데이터를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 도서관 서비스 이용의도는 도서관에서 제공되는 서비스 품질에 대한 이용자의 태도와 관련이 있었다. 통계분석결과 유의미하게 나타난 태도요인은 이용자가 지각한 (1) 정보원 및 시스템 이용시의 주도성, (2) 서비스 제공 의향 정도, (3) 제공되는 정보의 포괄성이었다. LibQUAL+TM 요인간의 상대적 중요도를 측정하였다. 반면에, 이용의도에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는 요인으로는 정보접근의 적시성과 물리적인 공간으로서의 도서관을 지각하는 부분이었다. 본 연구의 의의는 도서관 서비스 품질평가에 대한 연구의 영역을 확장시키고 이용의도를 고려한 새로운 평가 체계를 제시한 점이다.

La presse sportive écrite à la limite de la langue écrite et de la langue parlée. L'apposition dans la presse sportive écrite

As the corpus studies of the paper reveal, apposition, as we define it, is less frequent in the written sport press, though it is typical of written discourse in general. The rare samples found accompany proper names quasi-exclusively: this construction is very commonly found in the appositive structures of spoken language. This phenomenon could be explained by the fact that the style of the written sport press approximates that of oral language. However, apposition gradually appears in the sports press, too (particulary, in the headlines of articles) as a subtle but powerful lexico-syntactic tool.

Improvement of Translation Quality of English NewspaperHeadlines by Automatic Pre-editing

Since the headlines of English news articles have a characteristic style, different from the styles which prevail in ordinary sentences, it is difficult for MT systems to generate high-quality translation for headlines. We try to solve this problem by adding to an existing system a pre-editing module which rewrites headlines as ordinary expressions. Rewriting of headlines makes it possible to generate better translations which would not otherwise be generated, with little or no changes to the existing parts of the system. Focusing on the absence of a form of the verb be as a missing part of normal English, we have described rewriting rules for putting properly the verb be into headlines, based on information obtained by morpho-lexical and rough syntactic analysis. We have incorporated the proposed method into our English–Japanese MT system, and carried out an experiment with 312 headlines as unknown data. Our method has satisfactorily marked 81.2% recall and 92.0% precision.

Newspaper coverage of psychiatric and physical illness

Aims and MethodTo compare how newspapers cover psychiatric and physical illness. We conducted a survey of relevant headlines in nine daily newspapers over a one-month period and judged whether the content was essentially positive, neutral or negative.ResultsOver the one-month period, 213 article headlines about various aspects of medicine and 47 on psychiatry were identified. Ninety-nine (46%) of the former were critical intone as compared with 30 (64%) of the latter (odds ratio=4.42, 95% CI 1.64–11.94).We gained the impression that negative articles about physical medicine tended to criticise doctors whereas negative articles about psychiatry tended to criticise patients. Tabloid and broadsheet newspapers did not differ in their rates of negative coverage.Clinical ImplicationsPsychiatry, psychiatrists and particularly psychiatric patients tend to be represented negatively in the newspapers. Psychiatrists should strive to influence the news agenda by proactively reporting positive messages, such as treatment advances.

The effects of headlines and summaries on news comprehension and recall

In two experiments, we attempted to analyze the effects of newspaper article headlines and summaries on final comprehension and recall. During the first experiment, the participants consisted of 117 high school students from the 9th grade, 68 from the 11th grade, 79 first year Psychology students from the Autonoma University of Madrid and 66 fifth year Journalism students from the Complutense University of Madrid. The subjects were randomly required to read a news report in one of the following experimental conditions: (1) the whole news article (headline, summary and text), (2) the headline and text, (3) the summary and text, and (4), the text only. The data from immediate and delayed free recall tasks were recorded. The results showed that the structure of the news article did not influence the recall and that there were differences among groups in the amount and quality of recall. The headline and the summary modified by the use of macrostructural criteria constituted additional elements introduced into the second experiment to provide a contrast with the original headline and summary. The results showed that an improvement in article recall did occur with the modified version in comparison with the original version. These two experiments have confirmed that the aims and criteria of journalists differ from those held by the authors of scientific texts and question whether the reading strategies applied are the same in both cases.

Headlining in Translation

Abstract A hundred translated article headlines appearing in the Greek press are contrasted to their originals in the English press. The cognitive, cultural and social constraints on headline formation observed relate to a higher degree of directness associated with the Greek version of the corpus, on the one hand, and differences with respect to 'thematic ' preferences, on the other. The quantity and quality of information to be included in the schematic category Headline, in Greek, differs: the quantity of information relates to the genre the article belongs to and the difference in quality is a result of a different 'macro-rule' application.

The Perils of Periodical Indexes

This article is about a topic neglected in the social science literature on content analysis and culture indicators methodology—problems in using periodical indexes to construct research samples. The author briefly identifies and discusses reasons why article headlines located through indexes' subject categories can prove to be misleading indicators and then turn to the methodological difficulties arising from historical and idiosyncratic changes in index subject category headings and subheadings—difficulties particularly relevant to longitudinal research. The author argues that researchers using an index's subject categories should test not only for category longevity but also for category coherence and consistency over time. The use of oversampling, cross-references, and other devices is suggested as a means to correct or compensate for hidden inaccuracies in index classification and to construct purposive samples for analytic comparisons.
