Situational privacy: theorizing privacy as communication and media practice

Abstract Under dataveillance as the “new normal,” datafied societies render privacy seemingly impossible. Communication and media privacy scholars foster relational and contextual perspectives to explore how agents and infrastructures could nevertheless maintain a certain degree of self-determined control over the flow of data. Situational privacy accesses this debate from an alternative practice-based perspective. Putting emphasis on the ongoing transformation of privacy, this contribution leverages recent empirical and theoretical thoughts of practice-based privacy research as well as conceptual work on the notion of the situation in social theory. Shifting the focus onto privacy breakdown, mundane criticism, and pragmatic measures of “good enough privacy,” it anchors privacy in everyday routines and situations. Situational privacy offers a communication and media perspective on privacy as a critical concept in transformation.

Analysis of Language Arts in Japanese Language and Literature in a Cross-Cultural Context

In the contemporary era of rapid globalization, cross-cultural communication has had a profound impact on the language arts of Japanese language and literature. This paper explores the language arts in Japanese language and literature from the perspective of cross-cultural communication, focusing on how different cultural elements have been integrated into Japanese language and literature under the background of globalization, and how this integration has changed the use of vocabulary, syntactic structure, rhetorical patterns and expressive techniques, and the creation of contexts and the construction of imagery in the Japanese language. Cross-cultural influences have not only led Japanese language and literature to innovate in form but also to become richer and more precise in conveying deep cultural and emotional expressions. The significance of these changes for future research and practice of Japanese language and literature is conducive to the promotion of intercultural understanding and communication through literature. These findings not only enhance the appreciation of Japanese language and literature but also strengthen the role of literature as a bridge in global cultural exchange.

Ethical Competencies in Machine Learning from a Communicational Perspective in Educational Process

The term "artificial intelligence" (AI) refers to computer programs equipped with numerous competencies, such as making calculations, grouping and categorizing data, or communicating with the user in ethnic languages. On the other hand, artificial intelligence systems do not have certain properties, and among them, apart from the lack of "creative abilities", is indifference to the moral aspect of actions when searching and compiling data or cataloging phenomena. This study aims to discuss selected reasons for this state of affairs in the context of machine learning (ML) methodology, including the issues and applications of artificial intelligence from the perspective of scientific communication that occurs in the educational process. Given this goal, a research problem was formulated in the form of a question: How are ethical competencies developed in the machine learning process in the context of communication occurring in the educational process? In order to answer this research question, the text analysis method and the synthesis method were used. As a result of the research, it was determined that conducting machine learning with human participation, as well as using artificial intelligence systems previously learned with human participation, may enable the transmission of moral content in the normative sense to a cybernetic machine. Since human participation allows supervised learning of cybernetic machines, this type of learning, used as the sole method or in combination with another method, offers the opportunity to provide applications with the desired information about socio-cultural rules. Fully independent training of cybernetic machines does not ensure they collect information on ethical aspects desirable in communication during the educational process because open data sets on which machine learning takes place may contain harmful content, amplifying negative social phenomena.

Artistic mathematical analysis of the influence of modern urban architecture and lighting on human visual information transmission

AIMS: In order to implement the relevant laws, regulations and technical policies of national urban planning and environmental protection, and meet people’s living and human health, since the 21st century, various countries have adopted various methods to improve the urban ecological environment in varying degrees. The influence of the environment on people is first through the human visual response to the brain, so that the human brain can respond quickly and affect their human health. However, human modernization has brought many serious adverse factors to mankind. We must attach great importance to it. METHODS: Using the methods of field investigation, mathematical analysis and observation, and using artistic mathematical methods from the perspective of visual communication, the effects of these factors were analyzed. RESULTS: The analysis results show that more than 80% of people believe that the stronger the artistry of urban environment, the better human health and the longer life span. Only 10% of people are indifferent to the artistry of urban environment. 10% thought it was OK to have a place to live. CONCLUSION: 85% of people require that the urban environment should first have artistic beauty. Human beings must consider the artistry of the urban environment as much as possible in the process of urban modernization. The stronger the artistry of the environment, the more beautiful the modern environment will be. With a beautiful environment, human beings will live longer and longer. Effective measures must be taken to avoid excessive confusion in the construction and layout of cities.

Code switching patterns in Kazakh-Russian hybrid language practice: An empirical study

The study investigates Kazakh-Russian and Russian-Kazakh code switching in the framework of hybrid language practice to provide insights into the sense-making process among bilinguals. The unique characteristics of the synchronic linguistic situation in Kazakhstan stem from historically rooted ethnic bi- and multilingualism. Language switching has evolved into a tool for addressing communicative partners and sustaining communication in bilingual culture, rather than being viewed as a deviant pattern. It appears to be a dynamic resource for ensuring mutual understanding and harmonised communication. The study aims to reveal the motivations behind individuals’ language switching, how Kazakh and Russian speakers explain hybrid communication, and their sentiments towards it. Data from two surveys conducted in January-February of 2021 and January of 2024 are presented. Each survey involved 50 respondents with higher education, ranging in age from 21 to 40, who have resided in Kazakhstan for an extended period, with many being native-born residents. We argue that switching between the Kazakh and Russian languages serves as a communicative tool utilised by Kazakh and Russian speakers to signify their belonging to a specific sociocultural community. The study posits that hybrid language practice can be viewed from two underlying perspectives: from a ‘deficit’ perspective, signalling limited proficiency in Russian or/and Kazakh, and from a more complex sense-making communicative perspective, assisting interaction. As part of the sense-making process and in sustaining interaction with communication partners, code switching serves an instrumental function. Importantly, hybrid language practice is not portrayed as a sign of cultural decline. There is no strong correlation between the mixing of Russian and Kazakh and social, cultural, and educational barriers. Further implications for research are prompted by the rapidly changing situation. The development of the Kazakh language as a state language is becoming a major goal and central focus in this evolving context, which inevitably raises the issues of linguistic ideology. Distinguishing between ideologically neutral analysis and critical analysis of language use as a tool of symbolic power for specific social groups would provide a more gradient picture of the dynamics in Kazakhstan’s bi- and multilingual situation.

The synergy between effective communication, Islamic values, and precise application is a vital foundation for achieving the goal of quality public services and increasing the level of public trust. However, handling inhibiting factors, such as unprofessional behavior, is required through strict internal supervision and ongoing training to increase the competence of police officers.</em></p></td></tr></tbody></table>

Investigating social media users’ preferences of content and sourcing during a crisis

Crisis communication is not a linear communication occurrence as users seek out information from multiple sources and contribute their own opinions or frames to the discussion. This study focuses on a user-centered and public-oriented perspective of crisis communication on social media. The study investigated how users received and reacted to crisis communication messages from the media, organizations, and other users. A survey analyzed framed crisis communication consumption and examined source preferences for content and credibility during a crisis. Participants responded to crisis posts, determined overall source credibility, and indicated how they viewed crisis communication from other users. The results of this study indicate a needed shift in the role of media effects and an emphasis on credibility and reliance on organizational messages.

Tweeting on thin ice: Scientists in dialogic climate change communication with the public

This study examines the dynamics of interactions between climate scientists and the public on Twitter, utilizing a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. It explores scientists' tweets, public responses, and the factors influencing the "two-way" interactions and engagement with climate change issues. The findings indicate that scientists' personal disclosures and discussions of their professional lives significantly influence public engagement, particularly resonating with fellow scientists. Conversely, professional accomplishments often elicit more skeptical or critical responses from the public, highlighting the need for contextually relevant communication for lay audiences. Additionally, the study emphasizes the role of visual content, such as images and videos, in enhancing the accessibility and appeal of scientific information on social media. Furthermore, the current study uncovers a spectrum of public attitudes towards climate change, ranging from support to skepticism. It underscores the importance of acknowledging these diverse perspectives in climate communication. The use of humor and references to popular culture in public responses suggests an engaging and relatable approach to the topic. Ultimately, the study concludes that effective science communication on social media necessitates a nuanced understanding of audience perceptions, strategic utilization of visual elements, and a focus on fostering dialogic and participatory conversations, as argued by the public engagement with science (PES) model. This approach not only enhances public engagement with scientific content but also promotes broader civic awareness and participation in scientific dialogues about climate change, especially on social media platforms like Twitter.

Peranan Komunikasi Dalam Sistem Sosial : Analisis Teori Niklas Lukman

The theory of communication as autopoiesis proposed by Niklas Luhmann offers a revolutionary perspective in understanding communication in social systems. Luhmann argues that communication is not just a tool for exchanging information, but is an independent process and has autonomous mechanisms to maintain and reproduce itself. This theory combines the concept of autopoiesis which originally came from biology, where a system can produce and maintain its own components through internal interactions. In Luhmann's theory, communication is seen as a basic element of a social system that has the ability to create and reproduce social structures through processes communication itself. Luhmann emphasized that communication occurs through three main elements: information, message, and understanding. This process not only transmits information, but also shapes and constructs social reality. Communication in Luhmann's view is a selective process that involves selecting the information to be communicated, the way the information is conveyed, and how the information is understood by the recipient. Apart from that, the theory of communication as autopoiesis is relevant in the context of modern communication which is increasingly complex and fragmented. In the digital era, where information spreads rapidly and in large quantities, understanding communication as an autopoietic process helps us understand how information is processed, selected, and internalized in social systems. It also helps in understanding the challenges and opportunities that have arisen from developments in communication technologies, such as social media and the internet, which have changed the way we communicate and interact with each other. Overall, Niklas Luhmann's theory of communication as autopoiesis provides a powerful theoretical framework for understanding communication as an independent and dynamic process in social systems. This theory not only provides insight into how communication functions in a social context, but also offers analytical tools for exploring the complexity and dynamics of communication in modern society. By understanding communication through the lens of autopoiesis, we can better capture the essence of the communication process and how it shapes our social reality.

Methodologies, Knowledge Areas and Tourist Destinations Addressed in Scientific Research on Tourism Induced by Audiovisual Fiction (1988-2021)

This article analyses the methodological evolution experienced in academic research on the phenomenon of tourism induced first by the cinema and later by the audiovisual media in general during the period 1988-2021. Emphasis is placed on the methodological techniques employed and the tourist destinations considered from the perspective of marketing, communication and tourism studies. By means of a systematised analysis, 354 articles from the Scopus, WOS and Journal Citation Report databases were reviewed. The results suggest the existence of two main lines of analysis: conceptual theory (cultural geography and communication) and empirical analysis (analysis of specific products by marketing experts). Descriptive and quantitative analyses were found to be in the majority as opposed to causal and qualitative analyses. The predominance of researchers from the Anglo-Saxon and Asian spheres, who study the phenomenon of film-induced tourism within their borders, has been discovered.

Beyond the serotonin deficit hypothesis: communicating a neuroplasticity framework of major depressive disorder.

The serotonin deficit hypothesis explanation for major depressive disorder (MDD) has persisted among clinicians and the general public alike despite insufficient supporting evidence. To combat rising mental health crises and eroding public trust in science and medicine, researchers and clinicians must be able to communicate to patients and the public an updated framework of MDD: one that is (1) accessible to a general audience, (2) accurately integrates current evidence about the efficacy of conventional serotonergic antidepressants with broader and deeper understandings of pathophysiology and treatment, and (3) capable of accommodating new evidence. In this article, we summarize a framework for the pathophysiology and treatment of MDD that is informed by clinical and preclinical research in psychiatry and neuroscience. First, we discuss how MDD can be understood as inflexibility in cognitive and emotional brain circuits that involves a persistent negativity bias. Second, we discuss how effective treatments for MDD enhance mechanisms of neuroplasticity-including via serotonergic interventions-to restore synaptic, network, and behavioral function in ways that facilitate adaptive cognitive and emotional processing. These treatments include typical monoaminergic antidepressants, novel antidepressants like ketamine and psychedelics, and psychotherapy and neuromodulation techniques. At the end of the article, we discuss this framework from the perspective of effective science communication and provide useful language and metaphors for researchers, clinicians, and other professionals discussing MDD with a general or patient audience.

Pentahelix Stakeholder Synergy in a Public Communication Perspective to Realize Digital Tourism

The tourism industry in Indonesia was the second-largest contributor to foreign exchange earnings, which absorbed approximately 10% (13 million workers) of the total national workforce in 2019. However, COVID-19 led to a drastic decline in tourists visiting Indonesia. The number of tourists in West Sumatra Province decreased by more than 50%, while the city of Padang experienced a decrease of more than 75% for foreign and 50% for domestic tourists. To solve this problem, the Padang City Tourism Office devised an alternative solution using digital platforms. The Padang City Tourism Office launched an application called SIDETA (Tourist Destination Information System), which contains information about tourism in Padang. This research aims to investigate how the collaboration between the Padang City Tourism Office and other helix elements contributes to the realization of digital tourism in Padang City and analyze the obstacles and challenges faced by the Padang City Tourism Office in building synergy with other helix elements. This research uses a qualitative and quantitative research approach. Informants and respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Furthermore, three data collection techniques were used: surveys, rapid appraisal, and participatory methods. The results show that 75% of the helix elements in Padang's tourism sector are unaware of the existence of the SIDETA, and 94.2% admit to not being involved in the creation and development of the application.

Prominent or subtle: The impact of brand prominence on social media advertisement engagement

Brand prominence is a persuasive content feature of social media advertisements (SMA). Drawing on communication and persuasion theory, our research explores the effect of brand prominence on SMA engagement and its mechanism through five scenario-based experiments. The results suggest that high (vs. low) brand prominence lessens consumers' SMA engagement, but this basic effect is moderated by self-brand connection and perceived role overload. Cognitive ad avoidance mediates these effects. These results reveal that brand prominence in SMA hurts persuasion effects. Our research (1) enriches the application perspective of communication and persuasion theory, (2) provides new ideas for research in consumer resource management and contributes to the conservation of resource theory, (3) and complements brand prominence aftereffects research. Also, our findings provide practical guidance for firms’ interaction strategies with consumers on social media.

Research on Translation Strategies of MOBA Games from the Perspective of Intercultural Communication: A Case Study of League of Legends

In the context of global integration, the communication and connection between countries around the world are increasingly intimate, and electronic sports are flourishing on a global scale. Most popular e-sports games in the current market are developed by foreign companies. When these games are introduced to China, local companies often perform localization adaptations. Game localization involves several steps, including language translation, image adaptation, technical adjustments and cultural adaptation. Among them, language translation serves as the foundation of localization, and its quality directly affects the games acceptance and sales performance in the local market. This paper, based on the perspective of intercultural communication, takes League of Legends as an example. It conducts a case analysis of language translation in the game, including character names, character lines, weapon skills, etc., from five dimensions: text, voice, vocabulary, grammar, and rhetoric. It summarizes practical translation strategies for MOBA games, aiming to provide theoretical guidance for game translators and improve the quality of game localization.

Anomaly detection and defense techniques in federated learning: a comprehensive review

In recent years, deep learning methods based on a large amount of data have achieved substantial success in numerous fields. However, with increases in regulations for protecting private user data, access to such data has become restricted. To overcome this limitation, federated learning (FL) has been widely utilized for training deep learning models without centralizing data. However, the inaccessibility of FL data and heterogeneity of the client data render difficulty in providing security and protecting the privacy in FL. In addition, the security and privacy anomalies in the corresponding systems significantly hinder the application of FL. Numerous studies have been proposed aiming to maintain the model security and mitigate the leakage of private training data during the FL training phase. Existing surveys categorize FL attacks from a defensive standpoint, but lack the efficiency of pinpointing attack points and implementing timely defenses. In contrast, our survey comprehensively categorizes and summarizes detected anomalies across client, server, and communication perspectives, facilitating easier identification and timely defense measures. Our survey provides an overview of the FL system and briefly introduces the FL security and privacy anomalies. Next, we detail the existing security and privacy anomalies and the methods of detection and defense from the perspectives of the client, server, and communication process. Finally, we address the security and privacy anomalies in non-independent identically distributed cases during FL and summarize the related research progress. This survey aims to provide a systematic and comprehensive review of security and privacy research in FL to help understand the progress and better apply FL in additional scenarios.
