Use Of Mass Media Research Articles

VALUES AND IDEAS IN ARMENIAN SITCOMS

With its daily activities, the national media builds a certain image of the public, which becomes a part of our consciousness in the background of the presented news, forms our ideas about the surrounding world and people, and creates aspirations for identification with these images. The teenager gets the moral code of life, family and other values from the media. Low-quality sitcoms with vulgar jokes, bad acting and primitive plot have become more common in the Armenian media. At present, there is almost no analytical or research work on this topic. Armenian teenagers make extensive use of mass media, and TV sitcoms, in particular. They have a great influence on a teenager’s formation as an individual, form certain social attitudes and determine certain behavior. Nowadays, a teenager receives mostly negative messages from the media: an obvious lack of literary language, a distorted image of a parent, family, school, intellectuals, lack of distinct attitude to good and evil. These media messages, regardless of social status, level of education and place of residence, determine a generally accepted and understandable way of thinking and manners acceptable to teenagers, within which they try to self-realize in everyday life.

Clinical Study of Paediatric Ocular Trauma and its Assessment with Paediatric Ocular Trauma Score

The study aimed to evaluate and estimate the visual prognosis of paediatric ocular trauma using the Paediatric Ocular Trauma Score (POTS). The results showed that the most common causes of ocular injuries in children were during sports and play, followed by firecracker injuries. It is recommended that preventive measures, such as proper supervision and the use of safety gear, should be taken to avoid such injuries. The study suggests the use of mass media to promote safety procedures and the development of a standardised documentation system to facilitate research and improve emergency care services. The loss of vision can have a profound impact on a child's life, and health education about eye protection should be provided at schools, educational health centres, and sports academies. Ultimately, preventing and managing ocular trauma in paediatric patients requires a collaborative effort between parents, teachers, and doctors.

Comparative Analysis of Adoption Behaviour of Tenant vis-à-vis Owner Farmers for Rice Cultivation

Punjab, one of the major rice-growing states in India, has been facing signifi cant challenges in its agricultural sector, such as declining productivity and increasing input costs. Therefore, this study on comparative analysis of adoption behaviour of tenant visà-vis owner farmers for rice cultivation in Mansa district of Punjab was conducted during 2021-2022. For the purpose of data collection, three blocks were selected and from each selected block fi ve villages were randomly selected. Further, from each village fi fteen farmers (ten tenant + fi ve owner) were randomly selected. Thus data were collected from 150 respondents. The results revealed that majority of the tenant and owner farmers had low level of extension contacts, social participation and mass media use. On average, majority of the tenant farmers had about six hectares of operational land holding, whereas majority of owner farmers had about fi ve hectares of operational land holding. It was noted that 30 % of the owner farmers sown recommended varieties of rice, however only 11 % of the tenant farmers adopted recommended rice varieties. Majority of the tenant and owner farmers adopted recommended chemicals for weed control and plant protection measures but did not adopt the recommended doses for the same chemicals. Tenant farmers applied 33 average number of irrigations to the rice crop, nevertheless owner farmers applied 26 average number of irrigations to the rice crop. Majority of the tenant farmers (94%) applied more than recommended dose of nitrogenous fertilizers but majority of owner farmers (56%) applied recommended dose of nitrogenous fertilizers. Only 10 % of the tenant farmers had high level of adoption index for GAP of rice crop but it was 40 % in case of owner farmers.

Use of Information Systems (Mobile Phone App) for Enhancing Smallholder Farmers’ Productivity in Eastern Cape Province, South Africa: Implications on Food Security

The rapid growth of information systems in the form of mobile phone applications in developing countries resulted in several benefits compared to other choices in relation to costs, environmental exposure, and simplicity of usage. However, smallholder farmers fail to meet the soaring demand for food and other agro commodities in time, and dodging market overflows is an extreme encounter among communal farmers due to a deficiency of information and unacquainted administration. Therefore, the study analyzes the factors influencing the use of information systems for enhancing smallholder production in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. The study applied a descriptive survey research design. A multi-stage simple random technique was used to collect data from 220 emerging growers using a semi-structured survey. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a logistic regression model. The study indicated that most smallholder growers in the mentioned study area use information systems (IS) for their agricultural activities and agribusinesses and have further changed the farming landscape. Interestingly, agricultural productivity has been enhanced, as well as improved the food security status among rural households. Smallholder farmers have experienced problems in using information systems on their farms. Empirical results reveal that socio-economic factors influence the use of mass media for agricultural purposes by smallholder farmers. Therefore, the study recommends the government should embark on educational awareness and training of farmers in using information systems to enhance productivity.

Vaccination status and attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination in patients undergoing active cancer treatment in a referral center in Mexico: a survey study

COVID-19 vaccination refusal/hesitancy among patients with cancer has been reported to be high. This study aimed to assess vaccination status and attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines in patients with cancer undergoing active treatment in a single center in Mexico. A cross-sectional, 26-item survey evaluating vaccination status and attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination was conducted among patients undergoing active cancer treatment. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the sociodemographic characteristics, vaccination status, and attitudes. X2 tests and multivariate analysis were used to evaluate associations between characteristics and attitudes with adequatevaccination status. Of 201 respondents, 95% had received at least one dose, and 67% had adequate COVID-19 vaccination status (≥ 3 doses). Thirty-six percent of patients had at least one reason for doubting/rejecting vaccination, and the main reason was being afraid of side effects. On multivariate analysis, age ≥ 60years (odds ratio (OR) 3.77), mass media as main source of information on COVID-19 (OR 2.55), agreeing vaccination against COVID-19 is safe in patients with cancer (OR 3.11), and not being afraid of the composition of the COVID-19 vaccines (OR 5.10) statistically increased the likelihood of adequate vaccination status. Our study shows high vaccination rates and positive attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines, with a significant proportion of patients undergoing active cancer treatment with adequate vaccination status (≥ 3 doses). Older age, use of mass media as main source of COVID-19 information, and positive attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines were significantly associated with a higher likelihood of adequate COVID-19 vaccination status among patients with cancer.

A step towards achieving SDG 2030 agenda: Analyzing the predictive power of information globalization amidst technological innovation-environmental stewardship nexus in the greenest economies

Through the transition of novel ideas, products, technologies, and business models, info-globalization facilitates the flow and expansion of cross-border information and resources. In the meantime, this stimulates the potential of informational globalization and the internet for environmental and other technological advancements, and assists to the realization of cleaner and greener production and consumption. However, prior studies have completely disregarded this facet of globalization. Thus, this novel study evaluates the role of technological innovation (TIN) and information globalization (ING) in predicting ecological footprints (EFP) and carbon emissions (CO2) in the world's top ten greenest economies. Besides, this study also unveils the moderating role of TIN and ING for environmental sustainability. The novel research employs non-parametric causality-in-quantiles approaches on quarterly data from 1994Q1 to 2019Q4 in order to quantify for causality-in-mean and causality-in-variance, since there may be no causation at first moment, but higher-order interdependencies may exist. The findings revealed that TIN and ING possess significant predictive potential for both ecological footprint and carbon emissions, indicating asymmetric predictability over environmental sustainability. Moreover, TIN and ING asserted a significant interaction role when it comes to predicting pollution levels in chosen countries. Overall, it is essential to note that natural resource conservation and pollution mitigation via green and technical innovation become a dilemma since pollution has no boundaries and will always stoke fires beyond them. The provision of financial and R&D assistance, as well as the use of mass and social media to raise awareness not only in their own regions but also in neighboring countries, might contribute to the achievement of SDG 13 and Cope26's ambition of cutting pollution by 2030.

The Role of Mass Media in Promoting the Dual Career of the Performance Athlete.

One of the most pressing problems for athletes is related to the end of their career, a situation that presents serious challenges in the attempt to enter the labor market in the absence of an adequate education. Despite the fact that successful sports students encounter some problems in terms of time allocated to school, consistent work will ultimately provide them with a rewarding career and, most importantly, a relevant social role to inspire other athletes who are at the beginning of their careers. A successful approach to dual career cannot take place if athletes and their entourage (coaches, parents, teachers) are not aware of its importance. By analyzing the concept from different angles by professionals (EU, governments, ministries), dual career can be implemented in an efficient way and much faster if the appropriate institutions are involved. The use of mass media to create interest and content in the sports field has managed to produce major interest among specialists in the field. In this study, the answers of 30 mass media specialists were analyzed to understand how "dual career" is promoted for the performance athlete in the mass media in Romania. In order to analyze if there is any connection between mass media, dual career and the profile of the performance athlete, we applied a chi-square test and Pearson and Spearman correlations. The obtained results indicate a weak connection between the analyzed terms. The conclusions reached allow us to form an overview of the analyzed terms, managing to create directions for action in order to constantly improve the phenomenon in Romania.

Associations between dimensions of empowerment and nutritional status among married adolescent girls in East Africa: a structural equation modelling study

BackgroundEmpowering adolescent girls is an important component of combating malnutrition in this age group. Because empowerment is multidimensional and context specific, it can be difficult for policymakers and practitioners to target the dimensions of empowerment associated with adolescent girls’ nutrition in a particular setting. This study sought to identify the empowerment dimensions significantly associated with married adolescent girls' nutritional status in East Africa; a region where malnutrition and gender inequality stubbornly persist.MethodsWe used cross-sectional Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data from Ethiopia (2016), Kenya (2014), Tanzania (2015–16) and Uganda (2016) to construct and test theoretically informed structural equation models of the relationship between six dimensions of empowerment and BMI-for-age and haemoglobin levels for married adolescent girls aged 15–19 years.ResultsOur models were found to be a good fit for the data. Married adolescent girls’ access to information, measured by their education level and mass media use, was directly and positively associated with their BMI-for-age (p < 0.05). Asset ownership, measured by owning a house or land alone or jointly, was directly and positively associated with haemoglobin (p < 0.05) and reduced odds of being moderately to severely anemic. Rejecting justifications for intimate partner violence, a measure of respondents’ intrinsic agency, was directly and positively associated with the odds of being overweight or obese. Adolescent girls’ level of empowerment across all dimensions had a direct relationship with their country of residence and household wealth.ConclusionsOur findings suggest that investment in girls’ access to information through education and mass/social media and their economic empowerment may be important contributors to their overall empowerment and nutritional status. However, caution is needed as greater autonomy may contribute to increased consumption of unhealthy foods that can contribute to overweight and obesity. Strategies to empower married adolescent girls should be tailored to their specific circumstances. There is an urgent need for better data on adolescent empowerment and health, including increased research into age-, sex- and gender-appropriate empowerment measures and longitudinal data to assess causality. The use of statistical models should be complemented by robust qualitative research to further results interpretation.

Effect of health education on knowledge of home management of diarrhoea amongst caregivers of under-five children in Yenagoa, Nigeria.

low knowledge level of diarrhoea treatment, and appropriate use of oral rehydration therapy by caregivers, has been attributed to delay in commencing home management of diarrhoea. This delay in commencing home treatment; has led to preventable loss of lives arising from complications of diarrhoea, occasioned by lack of knowledge. Health education has been shown to help reduce delays in the commencement of home management of diarrhoea. The aim of this study was to assess knowledge of home management of diarrhoea among caregivers of under-fives in Yenagoa Bayelsa State and determine if educational intervention impacted knowledge of diarrhoea management among them. a quasi-experimental study which involved an intervention (given health education) and a control (not given health education) group. Using a non-probability convenience sampling technique, 220 participants were recruited. Informed consent was obtained from the participants, after which a 25-item knowledge-assessing structured questionnaire was administered to the participants in both groups to assess their background knowledge of diarrhoea and its home management. Thereafter, only the intervention group was trained using a training guide. At the second contact (one month later), the knowledge of participants of both groups was re-assessed with the 25-item knowledge-assessing structured questionnaire. Responses were scored and then converted to percentages, participants with 70% and above, 50 - 69%, and below 50% were considered to have ´good´, ´fair´ and ´poor´ level of knowledge; this was compared pre- and post-intervention. at first contact, the knowledge of home management of diarrhoea among the participants was poor in both groups (intervention 9.1%, control 8.2%). However, there was a significant improvement in the knowledge of home management of diarrhoea among those in the intervention group compared to the control group (intervention 95.5%, control 7.3%) (p=0.001), at second contact. the study shows that health education interventions are effective in strengthening diarrhoea literacy among caregivers of children less than five years of age. Public enlightenment through regular health education of caregivers and the use of mass media is recommended.

INFORMATION TERRORISM AS A TOOL OF HYBRID WARFARE AND A DESTRUCTIVE FACTOR OF THE MEDIA SPACE

The article analyzes the phenomenon of information terrorism, which has acquired new features in the context of globalization and the development of modern information technologies. The specifics of this concept are outlined. The fundamental differences between information, media and cyberterrorism are determined. The author emphasizes that the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine, the outbreak of hybrid warfare, large-scale information and psychological special operations, disinformation campaigns and cyber-attacks have become part of the modern information space. All this requires a new approach to the analysis of information terrorism. The article presents the main tools and principles of information terrorism. It defines the characteristic features of information terrorism and its manifestations in the conditions of the Russian-Ukrainian hybrid warfare. Two key points of intersection between media and terrorism are emphasized. The first is mass media broadcasting of acts of terror; the second is the use of mass media, social networks and other communication tools by terrorists for their purposes. Information terrorism destroys the media system and causes powerful psychological pressure in combination with disinformation campaigns, the spread of fakes and deepfakes, the spread of information viruses, the use of manipulative technologies, the strengthening of psychological pressure with the help of the media, the broadcast of the enemy’s ideas with the help of mass culture products, and the use of new propaganda tools. Information terrorism introduces an imbalance in the work of the media industry, which cannot continue to function according to the old rules. An important question arises in this context – the country’s and its citizens’ media security level. Media terrorism gains new opportunities in the virtual world - a world in which people seek to escape from the brutal reality. Instead, they enter the world of manipulation and propaganda, where the tools of «soft power» combined with manipulative technologies, disinformation campaigns, intimidation, and the use of the whip and gingerbread method, form a distorted reality.

노인 빈곤 대응 정책의 우선순위 탐색에 관한 연구

The purpose of this study is to establish a strategy to explore the priorities of elderly poverty policies by analyzing the core of the system related to elderly poverty and to derive the priorities of policies with strategic implementation ability. In other words, in order to combat poverty for the elderly, the cause of poverty was identified, and a solution was suggested by finding the priority of policies through the social security system (the 2nd basic social security plan task). As a result of the study, first, it was found that it was urgent to prepare a management plan for health hazards for the elderly. To solve this problem, it is necessary to minimize temporary or post-response methods and first establish a professional management system that finds and actively responds to health risk factors.

Third, system improvement should be prepared for this, such as increasing the income guarantee rate of the unemployment benefit system and eliminating blind spots of benefits. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen policies by applying policy priority search strategies at the same time as establishing institutional solutions for elderly poverty. First, application to resource concentration, second, emphasis on education and issue symbolism, and third, use of mass media.

Contribution of socio-economic and demographic factors to the trend of adequate dietary diversity intake among children (6–23 months): evidence from a cross-sectional survey in India

BackgroundThe present study aims to estimate the factors contributing to the change adequate diversified dietary intake (ADDI) from 2005–06 to 2015–16 among children aged 6–23 months in India.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted using a large representative survey data. Data from the National Family Health Survey 2005–06 and 2015–16 was used. The effective sample size for the present study was 14,422 and 74,132 children aged 6–23 months in 2005–06 and 2015–16, respectively.The outcome variable was minimum adequate dietary diversity intake. Binary logistic regression was used to evaluate the factors associated with ADDI. Additionally, the Fairlie method of decomposition was used, which allows quantifying the total contribution of factors explaining the decadal change in the probability of ADDI among children aged 6–23 months in India.ResultsThere was a significant increase in ADDI from 2005–06 to 2015–16 (6.2%; p < 0.001). Additionally, compared to the 2005–06 years, children were more likely to have ADDI [AOR; 1.29, CI: 1.22–1.35] in 2015–16. Mother's education explained nearly one-fourth of the ADDI change among children. Further, the regional level contribution of 62.3% showed that the gap was widening across regions between the year 2005–06 and 2015–16 in ADDI among children. The child's age explained 5.2% with a positive sign that means it widened the gaps. Whereas the household wealth quintile negatively contributed and explained by -5.2%, that means between the years the gaps has reduced in ADDI among children aged 6–23 months.ConclusionOur findings indicate that increasing awareness of the use of mass media and improving the education levels of mothers would be beneficial for adequate dietary diversity intake among children aged 6–23 months. Investments should support interventions to improve overall infant and young children feeding practices in India.

BAGAIMANA TERPAAN MEDIA UNTUK INFORMASI COVID-19 MEMENGARUHI NIAT MAHASISWA MENERAPKAN PERLINDUNGAN KESEHATAN SELAMA PANDEMI

Covid-19 is a disease caused by the coronavirus outbreak that first appeared in Wuhan, China, and spread worldwide, including Indonesia. This situation made WHO decides the world is in a state of the pandemic. During the pandemic, the Indonesian people, including students, received much information or deliberately sought information related to Covid-19 in the mass media or social media, which were assumed to shape their perceptions, attitudes, and behavior in protecting their health. Using the construct of the theory of planned behavior to investigate how media exposure to Covid-19 information in mass media or social media affects student health-protective behavior in the face of a pandemic, the present study surveyed 159 students in Indonesia who were selected using the convenience sampling technique. The present study analyzed the data by applying partial least square-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to evaluate the model and path analysis. The result from the PLS-SEM shows that the use of mass media and social media to obtain information on Covid-19 significantly positively predicts the intention to implement student health protection behaviors mediated by perceived behavioral control (PBC) but not by attitude and subjective norm. The result also shows that PBC only significantly predicts behavioral intention.

The study recommended subsidizing the cost of media facilities, increasing access to electricity supply, creating awareness and skill of the farmers to take advantage provided by mass media tools for their farming benefits, and increasing the usage of other mass media outlets were made to enable the respondents to have full access/use of mass media to improve rice production.

Strengthening Criminal Repressions for Sexual Assaults: Regulatory Vision and Prospective Law Enforcement

In view of the permanent reforms of criminal law norms protecting sexual inviolability that are aimed at the penalization and differentiation of criminal liability for sexual assaults against minors, the authors conduct a comprehensive analysis of amendments to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation by laws of January 28, 2022 № 3-FZ and of March 6, 2022 № 38-FZ. They note a new round of strengthening penal prosecution for pedophilic assaults and point out technical and legal drawbacks in the new norms, expressing doubts regarding their criminological validity. By widening the special qualifying features of such crimes as rape and sexual assault, the legislators set stricter punishments for assaults against sexual inviolability than for aggravated types of homicide. The authors analyze the contents of Part 5, Art. 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in its new edition and point out difficulties that could arise during the qualification of sexual assaults committed against two or more minors or associated with committing another grave or very grave crime against a person, as well as in cases of special relapse. They present a critical assessment of Part 3, Art. 133 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and raise the questions of the validity of strengthening criminal liability for group coercion to sexual actions only against minors (clause «a»), and the feasibility of including «the use of mass media» in the characteristics that increase the public danger of harassment. It is noted that the criminalization of the concealment of grave crimes against minors makes the law enforcers face the problem of the admissibility of incriminating a set of crimes included in Parts 1 and 2, Art. 316 of the Criminal Code in cases when the concealed crimes against minors belong to different categories but have a common intent.
