Abstract:
A study which reported information obtained from male child molesters and from the male victims of child abuse has recently been completed. When the results of this study were released, they attracted considerable media attention. Unfortunately the media reports were often inaccurate. The page 1 headline on the South Australian edition of the Australian (Powell, 6/1/95), for example said ‘One in two molesters cites abuse by Catholics’. This is incorrect. Furthermore, the media reports tended to unduly focus on issues to do with abuse by religious authorities and they failed to provide detail about other aspects of the study. In order to correct misinformation spread by the media, we present a short description of the study.

Abstract:
Words not only describe and define events, but also describe and define those who use them. Recent media coverage of the rescue of an American Air Force Captain from Serb-held Northern Bosnia, and the slaughter of a family in Melbourne by a severely disturbed man used the term ‘Rambo’ for both stories. In the same newspaper, the activities of child molesters in Asia were described under the heading ‘Child love’. The importance of the words used to describe assaults on children was recognised in a recent Victorian Crime Prevention committee report.

Abstract:
This discussion is not intended to be a detailed analysis of the complexities and dynamics of grooming. Instead, it will focus on the evolution of the concept and the term. More than an historical narrative, however, this evolution provides valuable insight into recognizing the diverse nature of contact sex offenses against children and important differences among types of cases. In this victimization context, the term grooming generally refers to specific nonviolent techniques used by some child molesters to gain access to and control of their child victims. The techniques a child molester employs are most influenced by the relationship between the offender and the victim. Although acquaintance child molesters are sometimes violent, to avoid discovery, they tend to control their victims primarily through this seduction or grooming process. I believe the term was first used by a group of law enforcement investigators beginning in the late 1970s to describe aspects of a seduction pattern of offender behavior that was poorly understood by most professionals. The term grooming then evolved, as language does, and spread into more common usage by law enforcement, other professionals, and then by the media and laypersons. The term grooming has pretty much supplanted seduction as the term of choice for this behavior pattern. Hopefully, understanding the evolution of the concept of grooming, the diversity of cases, the need for precise and consistent definitions, and the use of nonviolent grooming techniques to access and control victims will help interveners to better respond to and evaluate cases.

Abstract:
Child labor is the social phenomena that not only exist in Indonesia but also in other developing countries. These children work in several sectors including in the small industrial sector. As a young generation, they also must be able to compete in the work world. Therefore, aspiration achievement is an urgent matter and must be considered by stakeholder. On the other hand, the influence of globalization is increasingly global, especially in the field of communication. Representations from this field include on the mass media. Child labor who lives in the global era is also very familiar with the mass media. The study aimed to reveal the influence of information on radio, television and family environment on aspirations achievement of child labor at the leather industry handicraft center in Wukirsari, Imogiri, Bantul. The population of this study was child workers aged 10-14 years, who worked in the leather industry handicraft centers in Wukirsari, Imogiri, Bantul and were still taking study in school, which had a total of 119 child workers. Questionnaire instruments used to obtain data of all variable. The regression analysis technique used to test the hypothesis. The results of the study showed that there was a significant positive influence on the habit to follow information from the mass media and the family environment on the aspirations of child laborers at the leather industry handicraft center in Wukirsari.

The child freely expresses his feelings for his father and the father does not interrupt the child's conversation and can accept the child's complaints well without having to scold a child. Communication within the family is an important factor in determining whether a child is good or bad. If communication in the family is harmonious, then the child will really feel that he is very valuable, so that it will foster good attitudes and behavior in the child. This study aims to analyze communication patterns between a child who is frustrated in learning because he does not have time to play. The method in this research is library research. The type of research used is mass media analysis, namely observing and analyzing a mass media.

The results of the study show that communication patterns between children and their fathers sometimes go well, but there are still some that are not good. thus causing worry and anxiety for every parent. The results of the study also show the attitude of children who can express their feelings and frustrations well with their fathers as well as the attitude of a father who provides a safe and free space for his children to express feelings and voice opinions.

Abstract:
New Zealand has one of the worst rates of child poverty in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Research has shown that modern mass media provide a mediated cultural forum through which policy responses to child poverty are socially negotiated and from which public support for children in need is either cultivated or undermined. This thesis focuses on the role of media advocacy by the Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG) who attempt to widen public debate and legitimate options for addressing child poverty. I investigate the case of the Government's Working for Families package and the controversy surrounding the media release of CPAG's negative evaluation of the package in the form of a research report Cut Price Kids. Attention is given to competing ideological frames underlying the Government's package, in the form of neo-liberal emphases on distinctions between God's and the Devil's poor. Attention is also given to CPAG's response, in the form of communitarian notions of collective responsibility for all families in need. Specifically, I analyse the role of the mass media in framing child poverty as a social issue across three levels of mass communication - production, representation, and reception. At the production level interviews were held with six journalists involved with reporting on Cut Price Kids and two members of CPAG. Fifteen Government and 5 CPAG press releases were also explored to document media production processes and restraints on public deliberations. In addition, the ideological stances influencing the framing of coverage were investigated. At the media representation level 21 press, seven radio, and five television items were analysed to establish the scope of public debate, whose perspectives were included, and the ways in which differing perspectives are combined. At the reception level four focus group discussions with lower socio-economic status (SES) parent groups, as well as follow-up photo-based interviews with eight participants were explored in order to document the role of media coverage in the lives of families with children living in poverty. Across levels, findings suggest that journalists are restrained by professional practices which maintain the importance of balance and detached objectivity, rather than interpretations of appropriate responses to child poverty. Tensions between the Government's emphasis on restricting support to families with parents in paid employment and CPAG's emphasis on the need to not discriminate against the children of out of work families framed coverage. The lower SES parents participating at the reception level challenged the restrained nature of coverage, which excluded people such as themselves, and openly questioned media characterisations of them as bludgers who are irresponsible parents. Overall, findings support the view that media are a key component of ongoing social dialogues through which public understandings of, and policy responses to, child poverty are constructed. Specifically, psychologists need to engage more with processes of symbolic power which shape the public construction of child poverty in a conservative manner that can lead to victim blaming, and restrains opportunities for addressing this pressing social concern.

Abstract:
Breastfeeding has been established as providing the best and most complete nutrition for newborns, as this method promotes the infant’s health and supports infant growth (American Academy of Pediatrics [AAP], 2005). Mass media have been suggested as powerful and universal means of communication with the potential to impact social norms. Thus, this qualitative descriptive study explored, within the context of the Socioecological Framework, women’s decision making on whether to breastfeed or bottle-feed their infants and the effect of mass media on their decision. Data were collected in individual audiotaped interviews with participants recruited from the Massachusetts Breastfeeding Coalition and UMass Memorial Medical Center. Interview data were compared to text and visual representation from 12 Internet sites on parenting and infant feeding. Data analysis was conducted simultaneously with data collection and was continued until saturation was achieved. The comparison findings demonstrated that the emerging themes from the participant interviews reflected the information represented on the Internet sites. The main theme Media Matters Not suggested that mass media did not influence infant feeding decisions for this group of mothers. What did have an important impact on infant feeding decisions was the information and emotional support provided by partners, family, and HCPs (subtheme of Influences on Decisions). The participants offered suggestions of media messages they would like see in the future such as public service announcements of women breastfeeding their infants. In addition, the participants discussed media issues that had potential for influencing infant feeding decisions (Media Messages—Good and Bad), emphasized the need for public opinion to be altered so that breastfeeding in public would be viewed as more acceptable (Community/Public Opinions), and described suggestions for enhancing media messages about breastfeeding (Recommendations for Future Media Messages). The implications for nursing practice, public policy, and future research related to the topic were discussed.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the ways American visual media -television and mainstream/independent cinema- has presented the narrative of child sexual abuse since the beginning of the 21st century. Due to the rise of the counterculture movement and the sexual revolution of the 1960s, a discourse for talking about child sexuality was created. By providing an opportunity to discuss children and sex, for the first time cultural products could deal overtly with child sexual abuse, rather than connotatively. In response to this new discourse, conservative ideals about child sexuality proliferated in the 1970s and 1980s that attempted to return the child to a world of purity and asexuality with all threats to this purity being monstrous. The examples discussed in this thesis highlight the ways that contemporary American visual media has responded to three decades of obsession that created a "master narrative" of child sexual abuse - something that continues to play a significant role in society.

Abstract:
[Truncated abstract] Children have become an important consumer segment for marketers because of their potential in purchasing and the influence they have on family purchasing decisions. Marketers may not only want to influence children's spending today, but they are also grooming them for long term loyalty. Children are surrounded by sophisticated promotional techniques such as product placements which are presumed to be capable of influencing their purchase and request decisions. It has been argued that the processing of product placements works differently to traditional advertising. Placements are thought to form an impression in the mind of consumers without them being aware of this happening. These impressions may influence their purchase decisions. The consumer's inability to remember incidental exposure to a brand, or to know that these prior exposures are influencing their judgment, is an important factor that defines the effectiveness and potential deceptiveness of product placement. Young children, with more limited cognitive abilities than adults, could perhaps face more difficulty in grasping the difference between promotional and editorial content in the form of a children's magazine placement. Their inability to distinguish commercial from non-commercial content, and the intent of the promotion message, would appear to make young children vulnerable to the effects of the placement message. Children's processing of persuasion knowledge, or their ability to differentiate commercial from non-commercial and the knowledge of commercial intent, are suggested to be less vulnerable to the message. Three different studies (Study I, Study II and the main study on children) using the samples of children's magazines and children themselves were conducted. ... This stored information may have been used in a favourable way at the time of decision-making which may have influenced young children to like the placed brand. A possible explanation of such behaviour could be that as the child becomes deeply bonded with the magazine material, that child could have social interaction with friends who share a similar bond. This could result in a child having a greater influence on their friends. One of the implications of this study for a marketing organisation is the potential usefulness of material connectedness to a magazine when purchasing advertising space in children's magazines. It may also suggest a construct that may form criteria to use across media. Connectedness may be a surrogate for a measure of media 'engagement.' Product placement normally does not identify a sponsor. Placements have been criticised as an unethical practice because this technique attempts to trick vulnerable child consumers. If a majority of children in the sample knew the commercial nature and intent of a product placement, then it is difficult to rationalise this form of execution as misleading because it was placed. This study offers insights and information on the ways children make decision after exposure to a product placement, a technique which has been criticised as a deceptive 'masked' method of communication. Perhaps, product placement may not be as deceptive as many critics claim. This study found that public policy makers should revisit the policy on children's media, especially on masked techniques like product placement.

Abstract:
This chapter examines sexual abuse by clergy, which has received a great deal of media attention and has generated immense public outcry toward the perpetrators and the church. The Catholic Church has been criticized for protecting child molesters and for concealing the widespread problem of clergy sexual abuse within the Church. Perpetrators of child sexual abuse, however, can be found among clergy of various denominations and across the globe. Moreover, allegations of child sexual abuse have been made in almost every type of community institution serving children, including schools, sports, and voluntary organizations. The chapter focuses on etiological factors comprising intrapersonal, interpersonal, and systemic levels of analysis, and presents current clergy offender typologies that have attained general acceptance within the scientific community. It also offers some suggestions regarding prevention, training, and treatment.

Abstract:
Abstract Long-standing media hostility to the Catholic Church was expressed in singularly frank terms in 2002, during what was commonly (and mis-leadingly) called the nation’s “pedophile priest” crisis. Even reputable news outlets presented a picture of a Catholic priesthood heavily infiltrated by perverts and child molesters, whose activities were treated so mildly by their superiors that the bishops themselves were virtually accomplices. This awful picture gave the opportunity for the widespread public expression of grotesquely anti-Catholic and anti-clerical sentiments and the revival of every ancient stereotype—even the sale of indulgences. News stories and cartoons revived and even exceeded the nineteenth-century propaganda of Nast and the rest.

Abstract Anyone who was a regular TV viewer in the United States from April to August 1993 would have to conclude that the American mass media was obsessed with circulating stories of familial breakdown.1 If it wasn’t reporting the story of the adopted child2 returned to her biological parents after two years, it was telling of a child switched at birth who was now struggling to find a familial ground on which to rest her daughterhood.3 Or the story of a woman locked in a battle over custody of a child conceived through sexual intercourse with a man who contracted her services under a surrogacy agreement.4 Those five months were a turbulent time for the nuclear family, where new kinds of parents were floated and endlessly negotiated:

Abstract:
Studies have revealed that children constitute more than one-third of the world's population and half of the world's population is under the age of 25. In the age of globalization, media institutions and services are controlled by the market forces. Critically speaking, media institutions have not lived up to their expectations towards child rights advocacy and development. This chapter discusses the plight of children in Africa. It argues for the child rights advocacy as well as discusses the challenges and constraints that hinder the media from performing their role adequately. It concludes that the mass media plays an important role in promoting and sustaining the child rights advocacy. The chapter recommends that all media houses must strive to live up to the expectations of the people no matter the constraints and challenges that might stand in their way.

Abstract:
Today, advances in technology are causing changes in the child's habits in daily life. Technological tools such as televisions, tablets, mobile phones, and computers have become easily accessible for children. Studies show that children spare most of their time to cartoons on the mass media. Spending so much time in front of the screen reveals a changing childhood image. The consumer child is an exhausted child, too. This chapter takes a look at the effects of cartoons on the development of children.

Abstract:
On March 26, 2004, a six-year-old boy ran into an automatic revolving door when it was about to close. The door caught the boy’s head and killed him. The accident immediately caught the attention of mass media, police, government, and the people. Amidst all the opinions and talks about how dangerous these automatic revolving doors are and how safety measures should be installed, we organized a group of volunteers to analyze the dynamics of the accident to measure the forces, door velocity, acceleration, and if available, the driving current and voltage of the motors. The group not only studied the same door that caused the fatal accident but it also ran the same series of tests on a smaller size power-assisted revolving door, an automatic sliding door, an elevator door, a building shutter, a commuter train door, a bullet train door, an automatic sliding door on an automobile, and its power window. With the safety mechanisms disabled, we measured an impact force of 548kgf on a dummy head of a 3-year old when it was jammed between the revolving door edge and the door frame. The human scull of a child crushes at only 100kgf and our results show that in addition to this large automatic revolving door, the smaller size power-assisted revolving door, the shutter, and manually closing automobile doors generate forces that exceed this limit. These doors inherit the danger of causing fatal accidents.

Abstract:
This technical report presents results from the Behavioral Sentinel Surveillance (BSS) endline survey undertaken by Breakthrough RESEARCH/Nigeria in Kebbi, Sokoto, and Zamfara states between October 1 and November 10, 2022. BSS surveys are intended to assess changes in indicators targeted by the integrated social and behavior change (SBC) activities of the USAID-funded Breakthrough ACTION/Nigeria project. The Breakthrough ACTION/Nigeria project, which began in 2019 and is slated to run until 2025, focuses on the health areas of malaria; family planning; and maternal, newborn, and child health plus nutrition (MNCH+N) in Kebbi and Sokoto states, as well as malaria-only SBC activities in Zamfara State. The project uses three primary SBC approaches: advocacy outreach to opinion leaders and community influencers at the state and local government area (LGA) levels, direct engagement of community members through community dialogues and group meetings, and SBC messaging campaigns through mass media and digital media. The primary objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of integrated SBC programming, as implemented by Breakthrough ACTION/Nigeria in Kebbi and Sokoto states, with single-focused vertical SBC programming, used by Breakthrough ACTION/Nigeria to target malaria outcomes in Zamfara state.
