Abstract:
This thesis answers the question of how, and what, people communicate to each other while playing games. The presented conclusions offer guidance to computer game developers on what means of communication they should support in games in order to provide better possibilities for interaction between people that play games together. The data for this study was collected from two sources: the first was during LinCon, an annual game convention in Linköping, and consists of four players playing a game of WarCraft: The Board Game; the second is from a game session of the multiplayer roleplaying game World of WarCraft. The sessions where documented using a combination of video recordings and participant observation in order to increase the quality and speed of the analysis. The video recordings were subsequently sorted into labelled passages and then organised into categories based on their similarity to each other with the purpose of finding categories and means of information exchange. The analysis identify five categories of information that people exchange between each other while playing games and three categories of how they convey that information. The implication of these categories on game design practice is also discussed.

Full text
Abstract:

The study starts off as a quest for the core meaning of the term communication. First, the epistemological grounds of the endeavour are investigated. Findings of experientialist cognition, backed up by e.g. Putnam’s results, indicate that intentionality as understood by traditional cognitive science might be an incomplete story; so, in parallel, constructivist approaches are investigated. The two approaches are here termed as linear and recursive models, respectively.

Through introducing the conduit metaphor and the mathematical theory of communication, the question of whether communication consists of a transfer is discussed. Arguments are presented to the effect that the mathematical theory neither does support this understanding, nor appears to be applicable (but as a cognitive model) outside the domains where probabilities are assigned to outcomes.

Communication research in three areas is presented: investigations from an ethological perspective, process approaches to human communication, and the study of the signification relation. Finally, a review of some work on simulations of communication and collective behaviour is given.

In conclusion, intentionality is required for the communicating entities, which – based on some of the arguments presented in this study – leaves inanimate objects, plants, bacteria, and most of the animal world (except molluscs, crustaceans, and vertebrates) outside the communicating world. Communication incorporates signs, and signs are interpreted. In the process, meaning is created. The objectivist science ideal of pointing to an appropriate event and claiming "This is real communication" has to be substituted by offering descriptions of some idealised cognitive models. One might argue about these, accept them, or reject them; this is what communication (amongst other things) is (and is for).

In general, if it is understood that there is no possibility of reaching ‘objective’, observer-independent knowledge, another way of reaching more certainty than what just an individual can get might be to turn to others. It is this that brings cognition and communication into close relationship.

Abstract:

What is community? What defines it, and what creates it? What—or who—is the gay community? Is the gay community the same as it was ten, twenty, or even thirty years ago? Those are some of the questions I will be answering as I explore the creation, expansion, and subsequent integration of the physical gay community into one that embraces an online, fragmented community. I will explore the creation and evolution of the gay community, examining its early years and the challenges it faced as a marginalized group. To help define community, I will use the concept of identity theory by incorporating the theory of play and weaving the idea of claiming public space into my argument to show how the physical, economic, social creation of the gay community is dependent upon a geographic and virtual community. Those examples will set up my argument that the idea of community has changed in part to the commonality of technology and social applications. I argue that the idea of the traditional gay and lesbian community, which relied heavily on where you lived, has become fragmented and disjointed because of the reliance of an online, virtual community which, in turn, has led to a lack of interpersonal connections among individuals of this marginalized group.

Abstract:
The products of vehicular transportation have led the modern traveler into a crisis of place. The modern journey that is held within ceaseless flux, confine movement to edges facilitating prompt passage yet negating active participation. These edges govern movement, highlighting points of destination while simultaneously obscuring our journey in between travels. The limited participation and extended observation of one's place within the concurring boundaries renders the senses dormant, causing passivity and reluctance to participate or communicate with the city. These lines of movement, demanding our attention toward beginning and end but omitting the middle, transforms the city, home, and place into the background at which movement seizes the foreground. If stability and opportunities for interruption is not made attainable to the modern traveler, one's sense of place will become blurred much like the perceived image of place occurring behind the window of our automobile. There must be a juxtaposition of the mechanical and instinctual experience in the modern travel with qualities that entice all human sensibilities. Elevating these grounded qualities of place into the traveled path will elevate the character of place against the pressure of movement, preserving the memory of place against the terror of forgetting. Qualities of architecture and urban conditions have collapsed against the swift forces of modern travel. Contextual information must arise above the ferocity of the travelers movement to supply the traveling perceiver with opportunities of interruption and introspection on place. Inscribing contextual information into the modern journey will awaken the senses, reaffirming memory of place in order that the essence of place can be reestablished within its cultural and physical context. These interjected moments of knowing will reposition the perceiving traveler within the mental as well as bodily context of the city, home, and overall environment.

Full text
Abstract:
Crucial to human interaction and development, emotions have long fascinated psychologists. Current thinking suggests that specific emotions, regardless of the channel in which they are communicated, are processed by separable neural mechanisms. Yet much research has focused only on the interpretation of facial expressions of emotion. The present research addressed this oversight by exploring recognition of emotion from facial, vocal, and gestural tasks. Happiness and disgust were best conveyed by the face, yet other emotions were equally well communicated by voices and gestures. A novel method for exploring emotion perception, by contrasting errors, is proposed. Studies often fail to consider whether the status of the perceiver affects emotion recognition abilities. Experiments presented here revealed an impact of mood, sex, and age of participants. Dysphoric mood was associated with difficulty in interpreting disgust from vocal and gestural channels. To some extent, this supports the concept that neural regions are specialised for the perception of disgust. Older participants showed decreased emotion recognition accuracy but no specific pattern of recognition difficulty. Sex of participant and of actor affected emotion recognition from voices. In order to examine neural mechanisms underlying emotion recognition, an exploration was undertaken using emotion tasks with Parkinson's patients. Patients showed no clear pattern of recognition impairment across channels of communication. In this study, the exclusion of surprise as a stimulus and response option in a facial emotion recognition task yielded results contrary to those achieved without this modification. Implications for this are discussed. Finally, this thesis gives rise to three caveats for neuropsychological research. First, the impact of the observers' status, in terms of mood, age, and sex, should not be neglected. Second, exploring multiple channels of communication is important for understanding emotion perception. Third, task design should be appraised before conclusions regarding impairments in emotion perception are presumed.

Full text
Abstract:
Objectives. To summarize recent relevant literature on patient safety practices (PSPs) focused on engaging family caregivers with structured communication during care transitions and assess the effectiveness of these PSPs to improve safety during care transitions. This review provides information for clinicians, health system leaders, and policymakers to better inform approaches to engaging family caregivers with structured communication to improve safety during care transitions. Methods. We followed rapid review processes provided by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Evidence-based Practice Center Program. We searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for eligible studies published in 2010 through June 30, 2023, supplemented by targeted gray literature searches and review of reference lists in relevant systematic reviews. We used prespecified inclusion and exclusion criteria to assess relevant studies conducted in the United States that analyzed the effect of structured communication on care transitions with family caregivers. Prespecified clinical and patient-related outcomes included healthcare utilization, symptom exacerbation, quality of life, satisfaction, and unintended harms, among others. Findings. We identified 323 unique citations for possible inclusion; we assessed 86 full-text articles for inclusion. We included nine studies on effectiveness (2 randomized controlled trials, 6 pre-post studies, and 1 single-arm study) which assessed PSPs focused on discharge to home, transfers from intensive care units, and transitions from residential care. In residential treatment facility discharges, we found PSPs improved caregiver satisfaction (low strength of evidence [SOE]). We found insufficient evidence of other PSPs on any other included outcomes. Five studies detailed implementation facilitators, and two studies noted specific barriers to PSP implementation. While no studies specifically reported the resources required to implement PSPs, based on study descriptions, we identified four prominent resource considerations: (1) allocated time for pre-implementation intervention development and staff training; (2) designated time to deliver PSPs to family caregivers; (3) technology-based resources; (4) staff-expertise/addition training for designated roles. None of the studies reported rates of unintended harms. Conclusions. Clear communication with patients and caregivers during care transitions is important, but there is little evidence on the effectiveness of these PSPs. Included studies showed improvement in caregiver satisfaction, but more high-quality research is needed to assess the effectiveness of PSPs and unintended harms.

We searched for articles published from January 1, 2015, to October 12, 2021, to identify data on use of rural provider-to-provider telehealth (Key Question 1) and the same databases for articles published January 1, 2010, to October 12, 2021, for studies of effectiveness and implementation (Key Questions 2 and 3) and to identify methodological weaknesses in the research (Key Question 4). Additional sources were identified through reference lists, stakeholder suggestions, and responses to a Federal Register notice. Review methods. Our methods followed the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Methods Guide (available at https://effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/topics/cer-methods-guide/overview) and the PRISMA reporting guidelines. We used predefined criteria and dual review of abstracts and full-text articles to identify research results on (1) regional or national use, (2) effectiveness, (3) barriers and facilitators to implementation, and (4) methodological weakness in studies of provider-to-provider telehealth for rural populations. We assessed the risk of bias of the effectiveness studies using criteria specific to the different study designs and evaluated strength of evidence (SOE) for studies of similar telehealth interventions with similar outcomes. We categorized barriers and facilitators to implementation using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) and summarized methodological weaknesses of studies. Results. We included 166 studies reported in 179 publications. Studies on the degree of uptake of provider-to-provider telehealth were limited to specific clinical uses (pharmacy, psychiatry, emergency care, and stroke management) in seven studies using national or regional surveys and claims data. They reported variability across States and regions, but increasing uptake over time. Ninety-seven studies (20 trials and 77 observational studies) evaluated the effectiveness of provider-to-provider telehealth in rural settings, finding that there may be similar rates of transfers and lengths of stay with telehealth for inpatient consultations; similar mortality rates for remote intensive care unit care; similar clinical outcomes and transfer rates for neonates; improvements in medication adherence and treatment response in outpatient care for depression; improvements in some clinical monitoring measures for diabetes with endocrinology or pharmacy outpatient consultations; similar mortality or time to treatment when used to support emergency assessment and management of stroke, heart attack, or chest pain at rural hospitals; and similar rates of appropriate versus inappropriate transfers of critical care and trauma patients with specialist telehealth consultations for rural emergency departments (SOE: low). Studies of telehealth for education and mentoring of rural healthcare providers may result in intended changes in provider behavior and increases in provider knowledge, confidence, and self-efficacy (SOE: low). Patient outcomes were not frequently reported for telehealth provider education, but two studies reported improvement (SOE: low). Evidence for telehealth interventions for other clinical uses and outcomes was insufficient. We identified 67 program evaluations and qualitative studies that identified barriers and facilitators to rural provider-to-provider telehealth. Success was linked to well-functioning technology; sufficient resources, including time, staff, leadership, and equipment; and adequate payment or reimbursement. Some considerations may be unique to implementation of provider-to-provider telehealth in rural areas. These include the need for consultants to better understand the rural context; regional initiatives that pool resources among rural organizations that may not be able to support telehealth individually; and programs that can support care for infrequent as well as frequent clinical situations in rural practices. An assessment of methodological weaknesses found that studies were limited by less rigorous study designs, small sample sizes, and lack of analyses that address risks for bias. A key weakness was that studies did not assess or attempt to adjust for the risk that temporal changes may impact the results in studies that compared outcomes before and after telehealth implementation. Conclusions. While the evidence base is limited, what is available suggests that telehealth supporting provider-to-provider communications and collaboration may be beneficial. Telehealth studies report better patient outcomes in some clinical scenarios (e.g., outpatient care for depression or diabetes, education/mentoring) where telehealth interventions increase access to expertise and high-quality care. In other applications (e.g., inpatient care, emergency care), telehealth results in patient outcomes that are similar to usual care, which may be interpreted as a benefit when the purpose of telehealth is to make equivalent services available locally to rural residents. Most barriers to implementation are common to practice change efforts. Methodological weaknesses stem from weaker study designs, such as before-after studies, and small numbers of participants. The rapid increase in the use of telehealth in response to the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is likely to produce more data and offer opportunities for more rigorous studies.

Abstract:
Communicology is the science of human communication. The purpose of this work is to share the experience of the Department of Ukrainian Kryvyi Rih State Pedagogical University in the field of communication studies, in particular, in organizing the practical work of students at bachelor’s degree, master’s Degree and PhD Degree. The activity of the teachers of our department is aimed at ensuring that students and postgraduate students acquire communicative competences, which allow the modern teacher to get to a high level of realization of professional functions based on national and world standards. The focus of this work is an analysis of compliance of the State standards in speciality “Philology” and the content of the programs of disciplines of the department, which ensure the quality of higher education. In this context, the author talks about the three stages of communicative education. We draw attention to our own practical experience in teaching the course in Ukrainian Communology for PhD students. The article also discusses the prospects for communication education in Ukraine, which today has not yet become a mandatory humanitarian component of vocational training.
