Effects of VR technical interaction and acceptance on rural cultural identity: The mediating role of embodied cognition and flow experience

With the development of digital media, an increasing number of new technologies are being used in cultural communication, and virtual reality (VR) technology for cultural communication has become a modern tool of transmission. To investigate the factors that influence rural cultural identity (RCI) through technical interaction (TI) and technology acceptance (TA) in VR in cultural communication, this study initially constructed a model of the influence path mediated by embodied cognition (EC) and flow experience (FE) based on compensatory media, technology acceptance, embodied cognition and flow experience theory. All participants had experienced some rural historical and cultural VR work and then completed a corresponding questionnaire. A total of 356 questionnaires were collected and analyzed using SPSS and SmartPLS software. The results indicated that the technological interaction and acceptance of VR influenced identification with rural culture through the mediating role of embodied cognition and flow experience. These findings provide a reference for strengthening audiences' embodied cognition and flow experience to promote their rural cultural identity. When VR technology is used to communicate culture, its technological interaction and acceptance can be improved to provide audiences with a better experience and perhaps influence the development of local tourism.

Qualitative Analysis of Female Texts in Chinese Stand-up Comedy

In the digital era, the rapid development of digital media promotes the widespread transmission of feminist viewpoints within the Chinese social context, despite the stringent regulations imposed on feminist activities by the authorities. Like Rock & Roast, stand-up comedy has become an effective medium for articulating females appeals and critiquing gender inequalities in China. Through methods of textual analysis and critical discourse analysis, this essay explores different kinds of females texts in Chinese stand-up comedy, different genres of feminism that these texts reflected, as well as male audiences attitudes towards those various types of females texts. This paper finds that the females texts offer different perspectives, with YangLi s texts particularly challenging hegemonic masculinity. As a result, her texts elicit strong resistance from male audiences, as they confront and question traditional gender power dynamics and norms. However, as a whole, the females texts created by female comedians in Chinese stand-up comedy show the features of popular feminism, which distinguishes from true feminism due to their failing to unveil the structural inequalities and oppression in social and cultural contexts.

Building digital resilience in the training of national security professionals and teachers of the «Defence of Ukraine»

The article reveals the peculiarities of forming digital resilience of national security specialists and teachers of the «Defense of Ukraine» as an important factor in countering modern challenges and threats, ensuring stable development of society and protecting its digital future. It is noted that specialists should identify sources of threats to the country's information space and apply mechanisms to discredit them, as well as take into account the focus of the enemy's destructive actions on vulnerable groups through social networks and targeted advertising. It is emphasized that the formation of digital resilience can be quite effective when studying the educational component «Strategic Communications»”, during which future national security specialists and teachers of the «Defense of Ukraine» study such key elements of this type of communication as informing, influencing and persuading; information efficiency; coordination and deconfliction; «communication by action” and reducing the gap in the «say-do» construct. Building digital resilience in national security professionals and teachers of the Defence of Ukraine involves mastering the skills of creating their own and using specialized critical platforms and tools necessary to identify and counter hybrid threats. Attention is focused on the mechanisms of digital resilience formation as a concept of «Society 5.0», which has become a kind of theoretical challenge to the socio-economic and socio-cultural transformations that occur as a result of the total introduction of digital technologies. It is noted that in the context of the problem under study, there is a risk of uneven development of digital media by people, which actualizes the need to introduce mechanisms to intensify adaptive processes at the state level.

Analysis of cultural and identity transformations in the modern world

The issue of identification is becoming critical in the context of globalisation. On the one hand, globalisation stimulates the processes of cultural rapprochement and mutual infiltration. On the other hand, it is sharply criticised because of the desire to preserve one's culture and, accordingly, one's identity from "Westernization." The development of digital media exacerbates the problem of self-identification and socialisation of people through integration into virtual reality and the formation of online identities. This requires identifying the main trends of modern cultural and identity transformation and their careful analysis in the context of globalisation and the formation of the information society. The main methodological approaches of our study include constructivism, which allows us to identify the critical areas of identity construction in the global world, and structuralism, which identifies its main elements. Primary research methods: analysis of documents and sociological survey data, correlation analysis and case studies, synthesis, deduction, induction, generalisation, and systematisation. The study found that migration is a critical factor in modern identity transformations. Thus, it contributes to the launch of diametric processes: on the one hand, it influences the emergence of a hybrid identity as a product of cultural synthesis, and on the other hand, it actualises the processes of ethnic, religious, cultural, and national identification. Cultural globalisation promotes the exchange and borrowing of cultural values between peoples. At the same time, it increases resistance to Westernization by introducing practices of cultural isolation and a return to traditional values (cultural and religious). The formation of internet identity brings to attention the problem of constructing a virtual identity that is significantly different from the real one.

A comparative study of expressive language usage in contemporary Ukrainian and English media

The article addresses the topical issue of using expressive syntax in mass media, which is an essential aspect of modern journalism. This topic is becoming especially important in the context of the rapid development of digital media and changes in how people consume information. Expressive syntax, as a means of linguistic expression, affects the audience's perception of content, shaping emotional reactions and attitudes. The paper analyzes how different publications use expressive syntax to achieve specific communicative goals. The authors carefully analyzed the linguistic features of two leading media resources - the British "The Guardian" and the Ukrainian "Ukrainska Pravda." They aimed to understand how these media use expressive syntax to achieve their communicative goals. The authors paid particular attention to analyzing stylistic differences in approaches to presenting information, which reflects the cultural and contextual characteristics of the audiences of both publications. On the one hand, The Guardian tends to have a more analytical and nuanced style. It uses syntactic constructions that promote deep understanding and reflection on the topics presented. On the other hand, Ukrayinska Pravda more often resorts to direct and emotionally charged syntactic constructions that help to convey the main point of the news quickly and effectively. It constantly emphasizes the importance of events for Ukrainian society. Based on the analysis conducted, the authors have concluded that expressive syntax plays a key role in shaping the perception and impact of media texts on the audience. Media outlets should find a balance between the use of expressive means and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of information. Therefore, all media professionals are advised to pay close attention to their language strategy since language is a powerful tool of social influence that can shape public opinions and sentiments.

The Role of Digital Media on Students’ Management in Higher Vocational College

This study uses a combination of empirical analysis to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the role of digital media and student management in higher vocational colleges. The results show that the current application status of digital media in student management shows extensive and profound impact. With the rapid development of information technology, digital media has become an important tool for student management in higher vocational colleges, covering many aspects such as course management, attendance management, and student information inquiry, greatly improving management efficiency and convenience. By establishing a digital system, the school has achieved comprehensive coverage of student information management and online education. At the same time, digital media also plays an important role in students' social interaction and has become an indispensable part of students' daily lives. However, digital media applications also bring some problems. Information overload and distraction can make it difficult for students to focus, while security risks threaten student privacy. Solving these problems requires schools to take effective measures, such as improving information literacy and security awareness, and establishing a complete information security system. The impact of digital media on student development is complex and diverse. Its advantage lies in providing a broad learning space and diversified learning methods to promote students' communication and socialization. However, negative effects such as information overload and Internet addiction cannot be ignored. In order to better guide students to use digital media, schools and families need to strengthen digital media literacy education, pay attention to students' mental health, and strengthen network security. In student management, the advantages of digital media are mainly reflected in improving efficiency and interactivity, and promoting management innovation and development.

How multi-actor resources create value for live streaming platforms: the mediating role of engaged spectators

ABSTRACT The development of digital media has led to the emergence of live streaming, a service system that involves multiple parties coexisting, including platforms, spectators, and streamers. The study constructed a framework that elucidates the contributions of different actors toward value creation for streaming platforms, with a specific focus on the pivotal role played by engaged audiences as mediators. Empirical results (N = 454) reveal that platform interactivity, audience psychological engagement, and streamer attractiveness positively influence audience behavioral engagement, which ultimately promotes their value creation inclinations (continuance intention, willingness to tip, and word-of-mouth intention). Additionally, behavioral engagement serves as a mediator, enhancing the impact of diverse resources on platform value co-creation. These findings underscore the importance of understanding the interplay among different actors and the critical role of engaged audiences in value creation for live streaming platforms.
