Full textBinge-watching has become increasingly popular with the rise of video-on-demand services and online streaming sites, but little has been done to evaluate the effects of this new viewing behavior on audiences. This study explores binge-watching as a possible mechanism in the formation of parasocial relationships with media personae as well as a motivator for the negative affects experienced when a persona is no longer included in new content, the phenomenon known as parasocial breakup. Other variables, such as the extent to which the media is watched alone or with others, were also explored. To test these relationships, two online surveys were completed by fans of the television show Gilmore Girls, one before the release of a new Gilmore Girls mini-series on Netflix and one after the release. A total of 387 fans participated in the surveys, which assessed their viewing behaviors of the mini-series and already-released episodes in the time leading up to the mini-series? premiere. In the post-watching sample, it was found that binge-watching the mini-series was negatively related to parasocial relationship intensity. Furthermore, parasocial relationship intensity was positively related to parasocial breakup distress. Other predictors of parasocial relationship intensity include show affinity and age of viewer, while mini-series enjoyment was found to have a strong, negative correlation to parasocial breakup distress. Findings suggest further research regarding the relationship between binge-watching and parasocial relationships, as well as the influence that discussing the show with others has on breakup distress.

Full textTässä tutkielmassa käsitellään kulttuuriviittausten sekä erisnimi-alluusioiden kääntämistä englannista suomeksi Gilmoren tyttöjen DVD-tekstityksissä. Sen perimmäisenä tarkoituksena on selvittää, millaisin metodein niin kutsutuista Gilmore-ismeista löydetyt kulttuurisidonnaiset viittaukset on käännetty, eli millainen suhde lähdetekstillä on kohdetekstiin ja ovatko käännökset kotouttavia vai vieraannuttavia. Lisäksi tutkielmassa selvitetään vastaanottajan tarpeiden ja audiovisuaalisen formaatin sekä lähde- ja kohdekulttuurin välisen suhteen vaikutusta käännöksiin ja millä tavoin kääntäminen liittyy yhteiskunnassa vallitseviin kulttuurisiin ja sosiaalisiin valtarakenteisiin. Tutkimuskysymyksiä lähestytään kääntämistutkimuksen keinoin. Metodista teoriapohjaa on haettu erityisesti Leppihalmeen alluusioiden tutkimuksesta, sekä Venutin kotouttamisen ja vieraannuttamisen strategioista. Tämän lisäksi analyysiosio ammentaa tietoa vastaanottotutkimuksesta, sekä audiovisuaalisen kääntämisen tutkimuksesta. Tutkimuksessa analysoitiin 9 Gilmoren tyttöjen jaksoa 4. tuotantokaudelta. Musiikkiin, elokuviin, televisio-ohjelmiin, fiktiivisiin hahmoihin, poliitikoihin sekä kuuluisuuksiin liittyviä Gilmore-ismeja löydettiin tutkimusmateriaalista 62 kappaletta ja niistä kulttuurisidonnaisia viittauksia 80 kappaletta. Tämän sekä aiempien tutkimusten perusteella voidaan väittää, että kulttuurisidonnaiset viittaukset käännetään useimmiten vieraannuttavasti silloin, kun käännetään englannista suomeksi televisiosarjoissa. Tämän uskotaan liittyvän englanninkielisten maiden, erityisesti Yhdysvaltojen omaamaan sosio-ekonomiseen valta-asemaan. Suomalaiset katsojat ovat myös tottuneet englanninkielisiin ilmaisuihin ja englanninkielisten maiden kulttuuriin, joten yhdysvaltalaisten kulttuuriviittausten käyttö sellaisenaan ei muodostu ongelmaksi katsojalle. Audiovisuaalinen formaatti ei ole vaikuttanut valittuihin käännösmetodeihin niin paljon kuin odotettiin, eli tila ei ole muodostunut merkittäväksi tekijäksi kääntäjille, mikä näkyy myös valituissa käännösmetodeissa

Full textThis paper aims to study the usage of American TV series in English as a foreign language classes through the gathering of chunks of language. Though we start this dissertation from the description of the communicative and its innovative principles by presenting the communicative competence and its four divisions strategic, grammatical, discursive and sociolinguistic based on researches like Hymes (1972), Brown (2000), Richards (2006), Richards e Roberts (1986) and Savignon (1983; 1991). Besides we describe the importance of the realia in a communicative class. As well as we discuss the lesson of the communicative approach and the four abilities reading, writing, speaking and listening. Still talking about the communicative lesson we discuss about teaching grammar, vocabulary and culture. The choice of using TV series is justified because they are a rich source both linguistic and cultural of the English language (North American) and we can find a plenty of examples chunks of language, collocations, phrasal verbs, and idioms. In our analysis we gathered not only the linguistics but also the cultural references of the first episode of Gilmore Girls by using software known as Unitex® that searches the chunks in the script selected and finally we propose some activities based on the analysis.
Este trabalho tem como objetivo estudar o uso de seriados de televisão norte-americanos em aulas de inglês como língua estrangeira por meio do levantamento dos chunks da língua inglesa. Iniciamos, então, esta dissertação pela descrição da CLT e seus preceitos inovadores apresentando competência comunicativa e suas quatro subdivisões competência estratégica, gramatical, discursiva e sociolinguística com base nos estudos de pesquisadores como Hymes (1972), Brown (2000), Richards (2006), Richards e Roberts (1986), Savignon (1983; 1991). Além disso, em nossa pesquisa, descrevemos o uso de realia em sala de aula, e em nosso recorte optamos pelos seriados norte-americanos. Ainda falando sobre a CLT, discorremos acerca da aula comunicativa apresentando suas características, bem como discutimos as quarto habilidades linguísticas: a leitura (reading), a escrita (writing), a habilidade oral (speaking) e habilidade de ouvir (listening), tratamos, igualmente, do ensino de gramática (teaching grammar), de vocabulário (teaching vocabulary), e cultura acompanhadas de sugestões de atividades relacionadas ao uso de seriados. A justificativa da escolha de seriados norte-americanos deu-se por se tratar de uma rica fonte cultural e linguística e dos chunks da língua inglesa e suas subdivisões collocations, phrasal verbs e idioms está centrado na cultura americana. Em nossa análise, fizemos o levantamento das referências culturais e linguísticas de um episódio do seriado Gilmore Girls - Pilot (Episódio Piloto) - utilizando o programa de computador Unitex® que realiza uma varredura no texto e localiza os chunks of language no roteiro do episódio e, por fim apresentamos algumas atividades baseadas na análise feita.

Full textBackground Virginity testing is a practice that has stimulated lots of discussions amongst people from various perspectives. Controversies around this practice have necessitated further research in order to bring the voice of girls into the virginity testing debate. Aim and objective The aim of the study was to explore perceptions and experiences of girls on the practice of virginity testing. Methodology Triangulation of qualitative data collective method was used. The researcher informally engaged in key informants’ interviews with stakeholders who participate in the practice attended virginity testing celebration to observe the proceedings and processes conducted during the practice. Focus group discussions were conducted. Data was analyzed using NVIVO. Results Elders, in particular mothers, encouraged participation of girls in virginity testing. Girls observed and sighted benefits, ranging from viz: HIV/STI prevention, societal recognition and acceptance, purity before marriage and delay of sexual debut. Non participation was attributed to the in availability of virginity testing practices the areas. Concerns of doggy behaviors by testers, uneducated testers of testers, compromised health standards were discussed. Conclusions These findings reveal that there are areas of misunderstanding on how the practice is viewed and represented in the media. Arguments against virginity testing seem to be based on the perspective of on Westernized, feminist and individualistic notions of humanity disregarding the social construction of traditional cultural practices. Socialization and moral standards of people from a particularly Western orientation dominate the debate against virginity testing with no basis that is supported by research.

Students in a large mid-Atlantic city graduate from the public district high schools at an average annual rate of fifty-six percent. This low rate of high school completion predicts future financial and social instability for not only those individuals who drop out of school, but also for their surrounding community. The research on dropouts highlights the significance that students' low levels of academic and social engagement in school have on their decisions to leave school. Advocates for single-sex education argue that students engage and achieve at high levels when learning in this educational model. According to the current literature, students' success in single-sex schools is primarily a result of the proacademic choice that they and their guardians make when electing to attend a single-sex school. Through focus groups, interviews, and observations, this study explores what student engagement looks like at an all-girls urban neighborhood public high school that is non-selective and where the proacademic choice of students is not a factor. With new federal policy measures advocating innovation in public education, single-sex schools - historically inaccessible to minority students from low-income communities - are finding a foothold in urban public school systems across the country. This study aims to illuminate the extent to which a single-sex school serves as a "site of transformation" for young women of color from a low-income neighborhood. The realization of the school's mission, to interrupt the social reproduction of the neighborhood through the education of its young women, depends on its students' graduation from high school and their access to and success through college. Data related to various features of the school are analyzed to highlight how student engagement is promoted and inhibited at the school and ultimately results in transformative and/or reproductive educational experiences for students.

Objective: The study examined alcohol consumption among college women ages 18 to 24. It helped to answer who, when, what, why and how much college women drink. It also examined how "girls gone wild" kinds of portrayals influence college women in excessive drinking and "outrageous" behaviors. Theory: A combination of drench hypothesis (Greenberg, 1988) and social cognitive theory (Bandura, 2001) was used as the guiding framework to understand the dynamic relationship of environmental and personal factors in learning and imitating behaviors seen in the media. Method: Two online studies were conducted. The first study was a structured interview conducted with 38 women and 29 men. Study 2 was a survey. A total of 449 college women took part in the survey. Some men (N=174) also took part in the study to provide men's opinions and some perspective on women who drink and behave outrageously. Results: The survey results show that 42% (N=169) of college women in the sample engage in heavy episodic drinking every weekend at house parties. As a result, some have gotten into fights, missed classes, experienced hangovers and vomiting, and have driven drunk. Nearly 14% (N=55) of the women in the study reported being sexually assaulted while they were drunk. In addition, the findings of the study shows that "girls gone wild" kinds of portrayals are perceived in different ways by different college women. Most college women view the behaviors as negative. However, some college women do evaluate the portrayals as positive. These women are likely to engage in similar outrageous behaviors. The "girls gone wild" kinds of portrayals are less likely to influence alcohol consumption among college women. A multiple regression analysis showed that outrageous behavior correlated with self-control, sexual outcome expected, positive evaluation of the "girls gone wild" portrayals and sensation seeking tendencies. Drinking on the other hand correlated only with sensation seeking tendencies and how much value was placed by the respondents on being social. The findings of the study also show that men assess drunken women as vulnerable and "easy." Conclusion: Interventions that include strategies for better self-regulation and explaining of potential negative outcomes are likely to be effective in drinking and drinking-related behaviors. Media literacy programs might help in critical evaluation of media content and thus reduce its negative influence.

Abstract This thesis explores the historical development of the first western style girls’ boarding school in northern Taiwan – the “Tamsui Girls’ School” established by the Canadian missionary, Rev. George Leslie Mackay, in 1884, and the history of the “Taiwan Girls' Theological College,” which was reopened as trying to act as the successor of the “Tamsui Girl’s School.” Research is also conducted on the history of female missionary and the historical development of the woman education in northern Taiwan churches more than a century period, along with its revelation. The author has drawn a “flow chart of the establishment of the school by Rev. Mackay” through the study and clarification of the literature and expertise books and, with the aid of this picture, constructed the history of the “Taiwan Girls’ Theological College,” and the history of woman missionary. On the research methods, the author adopts the historical study and literature analysis to collect related historical materials for further research, analysis, and comparison. This article is divided into six chapters. Chapter one is the “Introduction,” and details are explored in following Chapters and sections. Chapter two is “The founder of the first girls’ school in northern Taiwan –Rev. George Leslie Mackay.” In 1884 he set up Western-style girls’ boarding school in Tamsui, preaching to women through education, and by using the private networks among women, led the women into knowing God. “The first western style girls’ boarding school in northern Taiwan – the Tamsui Girls’ School” discussed in Chapter three was Taiwan’s first Western-style girls’ boarding school, which opened a new trend for women’s education in Taiwan, developed a culture of learning and literacy, freed women from the fate of illiteracy, started with enabling women go to school the same way as men, thus rendered the women the key to gradually elevating their social status after receiving the education. The fourth chapter is “The history of development of female education in the church of Taiwan.” On the basis of the Tamsui Girls’ School established by Reverend Mackay, it developed into two schools with different attributes, one for girls’ general education and one for the woman missionary personnel’s cultivation education. After entering the Japanese rule period, in order to accommodate the Education Act of the Taiwan Governor General, the two female schools’ experienced a series of bewildering changes in name, accompanied by an intense change and transformation in essence. Chapter five is about “Woman missionaries in northern Taiwan.” In 1922, the first female organization – “The Women’s Missionary Society of The Presbyterian Church in Northern Taiwan,” with female believers mainly from local area, was established in the metropolitan church. It continued to operate the female schools which were gradually forgotten by the authorities of the Presbyterian Church in northern Taiwan. Through the organization of the woman groups of metropolitan churches and collective donations, it invited female missionaries to go everywhere to preach the Gospel of salvation and helped churches. Chapter six concludes the development of the female schools in northern Taiwan. Due to the establishment of the Department of Theology of the Taiwan Theological College &; Seminary, which recruits both male and female students, teaches Bible and theological courses, and also because that numerous local cogregations also have opened adult Sunday schools to conduct the religious education by Church, all make the student recruiting of the Taiwan Theological College &; Seminary become more and more difficult and put in the Process of prosperity to decline. This article has tried to propose a future approach for this school.

Abstract The aim of this study is to examine carefully the influences cast upon physical fitness by the types of leisure activity chosen to attend by young girls. The objects of study are the 619 students of the Min-Hwei College of Health Care Management. Through questionnaire and coordination with physical fitness tests, the data are gathered as leisure activity has been generally classified into sports, pastime, social services, and knowledge and techniques, altogether four types. The statistic analysis rendered by SPSS for Windows 10.0 Edition: The young female students of Min-Hwei College show particularly high in BMI in comparison with that elsewhere of the same age nationwide. The distribution of young girls taking part in the types of leisure activity respectively is 60.26% in leisure, 19.39% in sports, 10.50% in social service, and 9.85% in knowledge and techniques. Among them, the leisure type takes the highest percentage of all. The study finds out the actually and anticipatively chosen participation in pastime, social services, and knowledge and techniques matches with each other considerably with the exception of sports that varies comparatively greater calling for further investigation. Those who choose to take part in sports are conspicuously better in the achievement record of physical fitness than the others choose to take part in pastime, social services, and knowledge and techniques in BMI, sitting with body bent forward, sit-ups, standing long jump, and cardiopulmonary endurance. The outcome of study is as follows: 1. BMI: 20.9; pastime: 21.24; social services: 20.07; knowledge and techniques: 22.56. 2. Sitting with body bent forward in sports: 28.89 times; pastime: 22.92 times; social services: 23.96 times; and knowledge and techniques: 25.48 times. 3. Sit-ups in sports: 29.25 times; pastime: 25.17 times; social services: 25.54 times; knowledge and techniques: 25.36 times. 4. Standing long jump in sports: 151.59cm; pastime: 138.85cm; social services: 132.39cm ; knowledge and techniques: 135.68cm. 5. Cardiopulmonary endurance in sports: 290.4 seconds; pastime: 313.79 seconds; social services: 304.32 seconds; knowledge and techniques: 307.96 seconds. There are positive influences upon physical fitness to young girls through the chosen participation of types of leisure activity, therefore, it is recommended that young girls shall be encouraged more to pick out sports in taking their leisure activities.

The impact of climate changes on human being is getting more serious. Global warming, earthquake, plant ecological changes and frequent extreme weather are already unquestioned facts. Climate change mitigation has already become a global common issue. Taiwan is located in the subtropical monsoon climate zone, seasonal rains, such as typhoon and mould rains, are frequent. People must learn certain perception of risks for such disasters, so as to reduce the damages caused by them. Therefore, such education program is essential. This study was designed to investigate the cognition and attitudes differences of high school and college students on climate change. With questionnaires survey, students in National Changhua Girls Senior High School and Dayeh University were investigated. 160 (valid questionnaires) out of 170 were returned (effective return rate was 94.1%). Collected data were analyzed by SPSS19.0 for Windows and statistical methods included descriptive statistics analysis, reliability analysis, independent sample t test and one-way analysis of variance. The results from this study showed: 1. There was significant awareness difference towards climate change for male and female students in various departments. There was significant awareness towards climate change for the second category Changhua Girls' middle school students, Department of Environmental Engineering rather than the first category Changhua Girls' middle school students and International Business Management department. 2. There was significant consensus difference towards climate change for male and female students in various departments. Women cognitive alertness scores have significantly higher than men. The second category Changhua Girls' middle school students have the highest scores of Alertness awareness. The students from first category Changhua Girls' middle school and International Business Management department ,have lower scores of alertness awareness. 3. There was significant consensus attitude difference towards climate change for students in various departments. Men consensus attitude scores than female scores. The students from Department of Environmental Engineering and International Business Administration have higher consensus attitude scores than students from first and second category Changhua Girls' middle school, which the lowest scores from the first category Changhua Girls' middle school. 4. There was significant attitude difference towards climate change for students in various departments. The students of first category Changhua Girls' middle school have the significant lower scores than students from the second category Changhua Girls' middle school and department of Environmental Engineering Hope the study results could offer reference for schools and teachers in their climate research.

Full textAo longo da última década, os media móveis baseados em geolocalização têm sido um campo de estudo emergente dentro de um corpo interdisciplinar de pesquisa: computação ubíqua, computação pervasiva, estudos urbanos e estudos de media, ou a fusão dos dois últimos: media geography. No entanto, até ao presente momento, os estudos de medias locativos têm sido centrados predominantemente nas experiências de utilizadores de smartphones experientes e com um largo conhecimento sobre media digitais. As empresas de tecnologia e designers continuam a criar aplicativos para utilizadores que já estão familiarizados com o mundo on-line e já possuidores das habilidades requeridas parar usufruir dos serviços possibilitados por dispositivos móveis digitais incorporados com GPS, como smartphones e tablets. Esta tese desvia a atenção desse segmento de pesquisa para investigar a participação no uso geral dos medias locativos e, especificamente, na produção de narrativa locativa, pela comunidade Latina/hispânica, de baixo rendimento, e utilizadores de smartphones low-end. Diferente do cenário de há cinco anos atrás, o acesso às tecnologias móveis já não é uma limitação para este grupo demográfico, afinal grande parte da população considerada hispânica já é utilizadora de smartphones. Ainda mais significativo, hispânicos têm sido considerados o público do futuro no que diz respeito ao uso de media digitais nos Estados Unidos, em comparação com a população geral desse país. Além disso, hispânicos têm liderado a aquisição de dispositivos móveis, adotando os smartphones a uma velocidade maior do que qualquer outro grupo demográfico. Apesar de todas essas evidências, a investigação académica sobre Latinos e medias locativos é escassa. Dentro deste contexto, esta tese tem como pergunta de investigação: Como os media locativos podem promover a conscientização sobre a história local, de informações desconhecidas ou esquecidas, e factos sociais among (entre) e among (sobre) hispânicos, em um lugar que enfrenta segregação espacial histórica? O objetivo, por trás desta abordagem, é investigar como a comunidade hispânica, concentrada em uma área geográfica específica de Austin, são representadas espacialmente para o seu exterior, em sua localidade. Assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo empírico trazer residentes de fora desta determinada área geográfica para visitar lugares que tivessem que ver com a realidade cultural e histórica dos hispânicos. Essa área geográfica, a qual me refiro, é historicamente segregada. O propósito desse deslocamento de pessoas foi criar consciência sobre o legado da segregação em Austin. A fim de testar esta abordagem, foram selecionados dois grupos de utilizadores para usarem os medias locativos e refletirem sobre esta nova prática mediática, em relação à comunidade hispânica e o legado gerado pela segregação espacial em Austin. O grupo correspondente ao among (entre) consiste em imigrantes residentes em um bairro localizado no sudeste de Austin. Especificamente, esse grupo é formado por participantes do programa de inclusão digital TechComunidad fornecido no final de 2013 pela organização sem fins lucrativos River City Youth Foundation (RCYF). O grupo que corresponde ao about (outsiders) são de alunos de licenciatura da disciplina "Mapeamento da Cultura Latina no lado Este de Austin", oferecida pelo departamento de Rádio, Televisão e Cinema da Universidade do Texas em Austin. Um estudo piloto também foi realizado com crianças latinas através da organização sem fins lucrativos Latinitas. O estudo piloto gerou resultados e lições que enriqueceram a pesquisa. No que diz respeito à participação, verificou-se que o problema cada vez mais comum não é o acesso ao smartphone, mas sim a posse de conhecimento sobre as próprias capacidades locativas desse dispositivo. Por exemplo, como um utilizado deve usá-lo ao seu próprio favor, como ganhar habilidades para criar conteúdo através do smartphone, e e como usar aplicativos móveis. Os resultados deste presente estudo sugerem que deve haver mais investimento na produção de conteúdo locativo, porque o processo de criar conteúdos locativos aumenta o entendimento dos utilizadores sobre a sua localidade e melhora o seu conhecimento local sobre o lugar em que vivem. Uma recomendação para investigaçōes futuras com essas comunidades menos privilegiadas, é investir em aulas introdutórias sobre a história local e também possibilidar visitas a determinados lugares, a fim de aumentar o conhecimento local do grupo. No entanto, parece ser determinismo tecnológico afirmar que as pessoas vão usar aplicativos locativos apenas para aprender sobre o lugar onde vivem. Neste sentido, as conclusões deste trabalho sugerem que aplicativos móveis focados na narrativa sobre lugares precisam levar em consideracão as necessidades diárias dos utilizadores, visando uma integração às atividades cotidianas dos utilizadores de smartphones.
