Phenomenon Of Communication Research Articles

Digital Business Communication using TikTok Live Streaming

TikTok live streaming allows broadcasters to share content in real time and interact with viewers through comments, emoticons, and other features. This research is a qualitative research using phenomenological techniques, where researchers analyze data scattered on the Internet and interviews with sources who have direct experience with TikTok live streaming. This research aims to find out the phenomenon of digital business communication using the TikTok live streaming platform. The results of the study concluded that 1) digital business communication using TikTok live streaming is an effective and efficient marketing medium in explaining product information in real time, which can attract viewers (consumers) to establish communication about the product, so it can influence consumer buying interest to make online purchases; 2) digital business communication using live streaming increases the level of consumer satisfaction with the quality of the products they buy; 3) digital business communication using live streaming can reduce the risk of fraud compared to digital businesses that only rely on photos, comments and videos; 4) live streaming digital business communication has the concept of traditional face-to-face communication, the difference is that if in traditional communication it is done face-to-face, live streaming communication in business is done in real-team and the audience can see the broadcaster's (seller's) gestures of the broadcaster (seller), while the seller only sees the audience (consumer) through comments, emoticons, and other features

Thai Film and Television Development and its Impact on the Economy

Film and television are regarded as the media carrying cultural communication, that is, one of the key carriers of cross-cultural communication. In recent years, Thai films and television have gained more and more popularity among audiences all over the world, which not only has far-reaching significance for studying the phenomenon of cross-cultural communication, but also its contribution to the economy is worth analyzing. As a non-traditional film and television power in Asia, there are many places worthy of our attention and research on how Thailand makes film and television develop rapidly and drive its economy.

Impact of Interactions between Su(Hw)-Dependent Insulators on the Transvection Effect in Drosophila melanogaster.

Transvection is a phenomenon of interallelic communication in which enhancers can activate a specific promoter located on a homologous chromosome. Insulators play a significant role in ensuring functional interactions between enhancers and promoters. In the presented work, we created a model where two or three copies of the insulator are located next to enhancers and promoters localized on homologous chromosomes. Using the Su(Hw) insulator as a model, we showed that the functional interaction between a pair of insulators promotes enhancer-promoter trans-interactions. The interaction between the three insulators, on the contrary, can lead to the formation of chromatin loops that sterically hinder the full enhancer-promoter interaction. The results of the work suggest the participation of insulators in the regulation of homologous chromosome pairing and in communication between distant genomic loci.

Subliminal linguistic effects in dementia interaction

Subliminal linguistic effects occur when words or phrases that are overheard by an interlocutor become subconsciously assimilated into their ongoing talk. Such effects are a common feature of everyday interaction. Yet by their nature they are ephemeral, extremely difficult to capture empirically and have not previously been studied at the micro-interactional level. However, broader ethnographic observations made in dementia care settings appear to indicate that subliminal linguistic effects are operationalised differently in people who have dementia, when compared to those without cognitive problems. This exploratory study focuses on over 200 hours of naturalistic multiparty field recordings collected in two UK dementia care settings. It utilises conversation analysis (CA) to examine the reproduction of naturally occurring subliminal linguistic effects in the speech and communication patterns of people with dementia and provides the first systematic micro-analysis of the phenomenon. The position of subliminal linguistic effects in relation to existing sociolinguistic research on overhearing and repetition and the role that features such as intonational emphasis may play in generating subliminal cues are discussed. The study confirms that it is possible to capture examples of subliminal linguistic effects in naturalistic settings and that there are potentially a number of micro-interactional features associated with the phenomenon in dementia communication which could form the basis of a novel, non-intrusive measure of cognitive impairment.

Medical and forensic aspects of performing a remote interrogation of persons with disabilities

The purpose of the study is to develop new proposals for improving criminal procedural legislation in the field of conducting remote investigative actions with disabled persons, taking into account their physiological and functional characteristics. Research material and methods: This study is based on an analysis of the norms regarding the criminal procedural legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan and a number of foreign states that regulate the procedure for conducting remote investigative actions - as well as scientific publications on the research topic in the field of psychology and medicine. An integrated approach involves considering the studied phenomena of communication during an investigative action as a set of interconnected and interdependent elements, i.e., consideration of the issue from the medical, psychological and legal points of view. Situational and systemic types of analysis, complex sociological analysis, diagnostics and forecasting investigative situation were also used. Methods of analysis and synthesis, induction, deduction,methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis were employed to clarify the legal essence of the studied phenomenon. Findings: practical recommendations aimed at improving and developing the performance of remote investigative actions involving persons with disabilities (further – FWDs) y creating optimal conditions for the transfer of verbal, medical, and psychological information, as well as technical and forensic support for conducting RIAs. The following conclusions were made: in order to improve the current legislation, it is advisable to consider the issue of developing and including a special norm in the legislation, taking into account the characteristics of the communicative competencies of persons with disabilities. This norm regulates the procedure for conducting investigative actions involving the mute, deaf, blind and other persons with disabilities.

Ghosting Phenomenon in Interpersonal Communication of Bumble Application Users

Technological developments have made it easier for humans to build interpersonal relationships, one of which is using dating apps. One phenomenon that is often found in dating apps is the ghosting phenomenon. The ghosting phenomenon is an indirect termination of relationships that can hinder communication. However, many adult couples often fail or experience a breakup when they are at the approach stage. In general, someone experiencing the end of a relationship or losing a partner can be a very traumatic and sad experience and can disrupt a person's mental health. This research aims to find out at what stage the ghosting phenomenon occurs in interpersonal communication on the dating app Bumble. This research uses a phenomenological research method with a qualitative approach, data collection techniques of in-depth interviews and observation. The theory used is the Social Penetration Theory which has four stages in a relationship, namely the orientation stage, affective exploratory exchange, affective exchange and stable exchange. The results of this research show that the ghosting phenomenon can occur at every stage of a relationship, during the introduction stage or when the relationship is already close to each other. This experience of ghosting behavior also creates communication barriers between people and leaves the victim feeling uncomfortable.

Representation of a Scientific Supervisor in Internet-Memes

Introduction. The purpose article is to consider the representation of the image of a scientific supervisor based on Internet memes containing a multimodal metaphor. The relevance of the topic is due to the growing interest of the interdisciplinary scientific community in the study of the Internet meme as a social, linguistic, psychological phenomenon of interpersonal communication. The scientific novelty of the work is determined by the fact that until now there have been no attempts to study the representation of the academic community from the perspective of the theory of conceptual metaphor using the material of Internet memes. Methodology and sources. The methodological basis of the study was the works of linguists and cognitive scientists J. Lakoff, M. Johnson, R. Dawkins, V. Aldrich, Ch. Forsville, B. Dancygier and L. Vandelanotte. The concept of visual metaphor and multimodality is defined, the role of multimodal metaphor in Internet discourse is described, the features of the functioning of multimodal metaphor are revealed. The material for the study was Internet memes representing various aspects of interaction in the academic environment. To systematize the units, a continuous sampling method was used, along with pragmalinguistic, contextual and semantic analysis. Results and discussion. The Internet memes containing a multimodal metaphor that represents the image of a scientific supervisor and illustrates the relationship between graduate students and their mentors were found and analyzed in the paper. To select the material, a search containing the keywords “scientific supervisor”, “Phd student”, “advisor” was performed. The sources of the memes were the podcasts “The Struggling Scientists”, “The Meming Phd”, “High impact PhD memes”. By selecting keywords, 85 Internet memes were identified in which metaphorical transfers of the above images were found. Based on the data obtained, 4 metaphorical models that most clearly illustrate the relationships between the supervisor and the student were proposed. Conclusion. The study showed that multimodal metaphor is an integral part of modern Internet communication and is an effective way of influencing the addressee. Internet memes representing the image of a scientific supervisor were analyzed and systematized; 4 metaphorical mappings (“Scientific supervisor is a loving/caring parent”, “Scientific supervisor is a Jedi”, “Scientific supervisor is a monster/maniac”, “Scientific supervisor is a bad boss”) are highlighted and described. It was revealed that the considered Internet memes are characterized by the replacement of the verbal component with a non-verbal (graphic) one in the target domain or in the source domain. The studied metaphorical models reflect the most pressing problems of the academic community. The expressiveness of the metaphor used is achieved through the use of movie characters in the source domain or target domain. The metaphorical potential of Internet memes as semantic-semiotic units of Internet discourse is undoubtedly a promising area for further study.

Political and Public Discourse in the backdrop of 'Regime Change' in Pakistan (2022): A Thematic Analysis of the Facebook pages of PTI, PML-N and PPP

In today’s day and age, the social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter have converted a rather conventionally one way ‘political communication’ process into an effective and influential two-way communication process. This two-way communication process has an impact on the political communication phenomenon all around the world. Bearing in mind this aspect the researcher has attempted to explore how and to what extent the ‘public discourse’ matched or differed from the ‘political discourse’ regarding the political ‘regime change’ in Pakistan that took place in the first half of the April 2022. Employing the ‘Framing’ as theoretical basis the researcher has attempted to determine how the ‘regime change’ was framed in the political and public discourse. The researcher has employed thematic analysis as methodological tool in this study to identify, analyze and interpret the meanings within the political and public discourse in the backdrop of the ‘regime change’ appeared in the Facebook pages of the top three political parties in Pakistan i.e. Pakistan Tehreek-E-Insaaf (PTI), Pakistan Muslim League- Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).

Surface wave communication-based wave guide design concerns for flip chip package-based integrated circuits with bump pitch sizes of 1.2 mm and above

ABSTRACT The flip chip package (FCP) based integrated circuits supports millimetre wave frequency range (30 - 300 GHz), analysing the conditions for optimal signal transmission between the integrated circuits for FCP type being the primary essence of this article. The effective signal transmission occurs through a dielectric-coated conductor structure based on the surface wave communication phenomenon, known as a surface wave communication-based wave guide (SWW). The article focuses primarily on design considerations to build SWW for FCP applications at millimetre wave frequency ranges. The efficiency of the proposed waveguide was investigated in terms of power transmission capacity, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) and signal attenuation. The analysis comprises examining these parameters at the frequency range of 50 GHz to 150 GHz while taking into account varied degrees of waveguide dimensions and surface reactance. The measured results show that at the signal frequency of 100 GHz with dielectric and conductor thickness of 0.2 mm and surface reactance of 100 Ω, the suggested waveguide provides efficient signal transmission with approximately 0 dB signal attenuation, ideal high-power flow of 41,000 VA m 2 and VSWR of 1.2. Overall, this article provides insights on the design and performance of SWW for FCP applications at millimetre wave frequency band.

Lecturers’ experiences of online learning communication in Indonesia during the COVID-19 pandemic: A phenomenological study

Background Indonesia is currently implementing educational reforms to enhance university teaching and learning. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected Indonesian universities, requiring lecturers to implement various changes. The phenomenon of online learning communication at various universities in Indonesia is critical considering today’s increasingly fierce competition due to digital disruption coupled with the impact of the pandemic. Therefore, lecturers must implement appropriate methods to conduct online learning communication effectively. Methods This qualitative phenomenological study was designed to explore lecturers’ understanding of the implementation of changes in online learning communication at Indonesian universities. In-depth interviews and field observations were conducted with lecturers who were efficient in online learning using a specific measurement standard. The research participants were identified using purposive sampling with a snowball approach. The study comprised 10 lecturers from UPN Veteran Jakarta who were experienced and efficiently delivered online lectures. Results The results provide a review of factors identified by the phenomenological and qualitative study that contribute to online learning communication, such as chemistry, lecturer preparation, and learning materials. The results of this study revealed several themes. Each section centers on the major themes that emerged from the datasets. Conclusion Our findings aid in a better understanding of the benefits and constraints of using online learning communication in the classroom. These findings are crucial for university lecturers developing methods for enhancing the implementation of online learning communication. Moreover, the findings revealed that lecturers should engage in and create trusting interactions with their students. Providing technical support to keep both teachers and students engaged can be useful. More crucially, multimedia support and learning systems are essential for properly addressing lecturers’ tasks and learning materials. This study improves the understanding of online learning communications implemented by lecturers.

Lexical Alignment is Pervasive Across Contexts in Non-WEIRD Adult-Child Interactions.

Lexical alignment, a communication phenomenon where conversational partners adapt their word choices to become more similar, plays an important role in the development of language and social communication skills. While this has been studied extensively in the conversations of preschool-aged children and their parents in Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic (WEIRD) communities, research in other pediatric populations is sparse. This study makes significant expansions on the existing literature by focusing on alignment in naturalistic conversations of school-aged children from a non-WEIRD population across multiple conversational tasks and with different types of adult partners. Typically developing children aged 5 to 8 years (n = 45) engaged in four semi-structured conversations that differed by task (problem-solving vs. play-based) and by partner (parent vs. university student), resulting in a corpus of 180 conversations. Lexical alignment scores were calculated and compared to sham conversations, representing alignment occurring at the level of chance. Both children and adults coordinated their conversational utterances by re-using or aligning each other's word choices. This alignment behavior persisted across conversational tasks and partners, although the degree of alignment was moderated by the conversational context. These findings suggest that lexical alignment is a robust phenomenon in conversations between school-age children and adults. Furthermore, this study extends lexical alignment findings to a non-WEIRD culture, suggesting that alignment may be a coordination strategy employed by adults and children across diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds.

Metaphorical nominations of national leaders of the past as a phenomenon of actual political communication

The article is devoted to the analysis of the metaphorical nomination of the subject as an instrument of deep-datified mediatization of a political incident of a special nature - the death/departure from active politics of a political leader on a national scale. The theoretical basis is the theory of deep mediatization, the cognitive theory of metaphor and the sociology of memory. The authors prove that the analysis of the metaphorical nominations of outstanding statesmen who left this world makes it possible to identify the public's attitude to the current state of political problematization and the structural profile of current political conflicts. Media texts and user-generated content in foreign English-language media were selected as empirical material for analysis. The resulting dataset is analyzed on the basis of the theory of metaphor in political discourse. The article shows that the death/departure from active politics of a political leader of the distant or relatively close past acts as a significant information event that generates the actualization of the political discursive field in a datatized online environment. English-language online media or online versions of traditional media were selected by the monitoring method in the system Semanticforce.ai : Associated Press, Bloomberg News, Reuters for the period 08.30.2022 ‒ 09.10.2022. A total of 12320 texts were taken into account. By means of lexical and semantic analysis, the nominations were selected from the texts and their classification into lexical and thematic groups was carried out. As a result of the study, it is shown that the death/departure from active politics of a political leader of the distant or relatively close past acts as a significant information event that generates the actualization of the political discursive field in a datatized online environment. - English-speaking online media assess the personality of Mikhail Gorbachev in a generally positive way: one of a kind, democrat, peacemaker, etc. - The thematic group of lexemes with the meaning of paradoxicity and inconsistency in English-speaking media is one of the most representative in the analyzed media discourse. - The paradoxical nature of personality assessment is linked to the counter-predictive assessment of Mikhail Gorbachev's activities during his presidency in European and Russian politics.

FEATURES OF INTRA-FIRM COMMUNICATIONS OF INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISES IN TURBULENT CONDITIONS

The purpose of this research is to study the modern specificity of intra-firm communications of industrial enterprises. On the basis of a comprehensive analysis of approaches of various sciences to the phenomenon of intra-firm communications, the following conclusions were formulated in the paper. It has been established that intra-company communications at various levels (vertical links with management and subordinates, symmetrical and supportive communications with colleagues) significantly affect the psychological well-being of employees in conditions of high turbulence of the external environment. It is shown that trust in the organisation mediates the impact on employees' psychological well-being. This study deepens the understanding of psychological well-being of employees in industrial enterprises by examining the impact of internal communication on financial and economic performance. The results of the study can become the basis for practical recommendations on how to promote the psychological well-being of employees by creating an effective intra-company communication environment, both at the level of the whole organisation and at the level of colleagues by increasing the trustworthiness of relationships.

“Discourse” and “Discourse Analysis”: Front-burner Notions

In this study, we examine front-burner notions in two discrete terms: “discourse” and “discourse analysis”. Discourse analysis is not a new field of language study. This is why numerous notions abound therein, for the elucidation of language-related phenomena in human communication across genres. Some of the phenomena are so contentious that critical notions in discourse and discourse analysis continue to evolve. Discourse is human interaction. It has structure which is analyzed to reveal not just meanings, but also the underpinnings of such meanings. Linguistic conventions and extra-linguistic nuances underpin textual meanings to provide rich insights into the dynamics of language use in texts. A discourse analyst is interested in the discourse strategies deployed by speakers and writers for the purpose of effective communication. In this study, notions presented and examined are essentially explanative in terms of elucidating communicative strategies of language users. This view establishes the similarity between discourse analysis and pragmatics. The study concludes that discourse analysis is: context-based, functional, socially realistic, organizational structure, part of a whole, on-going communication and cross-disciplinary

Identifying an AML Prognostic Model Using 10 Marker Genes from Single-Cell Transcriptome and Bulk Transcriptome Analysis.

Fanconi anemia (FA) is the predominant hereditary syndrome of bone marrow failure (BMF), distinguished by impairments in DNA repair mechanisms. The deficiency in the FANC pathway, which governs DNA repair and replication rescue, results in aberrant responses to DNA damage in individuals with FA. The objective of this study is to examine the involvement of the FANC core complex in BMF and ascertain nucleolar homeostasis-related genes by conducting transcriptome analysis on primary hematopoietic stem cells obtained from FA patients with FANCA and FANCC variants. In the present study, we analyzed scRNA-seq data obtained from both healthy donors and individuals diagnosed with FA in order to investigate the phenomenon of cell-cell communication. Through the implementation of trajectory analysis, the differentiation pathways of several progenitor cell types, such as HSC cells transitioning into LMPP, N, M, B-prog, and E cells, were elucidated. Moreover, by scrutinizing the inferred interactions, notable disparities in cell-cell communication were observed between FA patients and their healthy counterparts. Our analysis has unveiled heightened interactions involving TNFSF13B, MIF, IL16, and COL4A2 in patients with FA. Furthermore, we have developed a prognostic model for predicting the outcome of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) which has exhibited remarkable predictive precision, with an AUC exceeding 0.83 at the 3- and 5-year intervals following the baseline assessment. In summary, the prognostic model that has been developed provides a valuable instrument for forecasting outcomes of AML by utilizing the genes identified through both single-cell and bulk transcriptome analyses.

The Communicative Behavior of Russian Cosmonauts: “Content” Space Experiment Result Generalization

The increasing complexity of the space flight program and the increase in the duration of missions require an improvement in psychological monitoring tools for astronauts in orbit. This article summarizes the experience of using quantitative content analysis of communication between the crews and the Mission Control Center (MCC). This method allows us to assess the dynamics of an astronaut’s psycho-emotional state, identify their communicative style, and detect the communication phenomena of board-MCC communication. The method is based on a combination of the coping strategies approach by Lazarus and Folkman as well as B.F. Lomov’s concept about the three functions of communication. We found the influence of workload on the structure and volume of communication, defined the main stable communication styles of crewmembers, and confirmed the presence of the emotional transfer phenomenon. We detected that astronauts successfully solve problems that arise in orbit using the capabilities of their communication style. An ineffective MCC communication style usually leads to psycho-emotional ill-being, manifesting in the emotional transfer phenomenon. The presence of the “third-quarter” phenomenon was not confirmed by materials from six-month space flights.
