Communications and political behavior in the international system; explorations into theory, method, and substanceMcMaster, Barrie Glenholme January 1969 (has links)
This study deals with possible relationships between
the political information levels of nation states and their
behavior in the international political system. The purpose
of the study is purely exploratory. Drawing upon the literature of domestic political participation studies and the
systems framework of David Easton, the author investigates
the relevance and implications of the hypothesis, the
availability and reliability of data sources, and the substantive relationship between information and behavior.
The author suggests that a basic modification of the
Easton model— the addition of a membership environment—
makes the framework applicable to the analysis of international politics, and shows political information to be a
salient variable, previously over looked in systemic analyses
of international relations.
Attention is devoted to the utility of news index
and news summary sources for behavioral data. Using correlational techniques, the investigator finds that the advantages
of availability and economy of these sources are
somewhat offset by the existence of biases; no conclusions
can be drawn, the author suggests, until a more systematic
assessment of these sources is undertaken. Using a randomization test for matched pairs of
twenty nation states, the study indicates a probable
relationship between the extent of information channels
and the systemic orientation of states' international
behavior. The information channels utilized in the
research design are diplomatic exchanges and memberships in
inter-governmental organizations. The substantive findings
are then related to the behavioral data source question, and
to the further research ability of the problem.
The author concludes that the results of the pilot
study are sufficiently interesting to warrant fuller investigation of both the hypothesis and the source bias problem. / Arts, Faculty of / Political Science, Department of / Graduate

THE DEFINITION AND FUNCTION OF DECEPTIVE COMMUNICATION IN A LABOR-MANAGEMENT NEGOTIATION SESSION (LYING, BELIEFS, GENUINE).TUCKER, ROBERT E. January 1984 (has links)
This study attempts to bring together the fields of communication, business, philosophy and linguistics. This effort is to make known particular behaviors exhibited in a negotiation setting with a focus on understanding why these behaviors are permitted and even embraced. The communicative dimension of these behaviors warrants study within a Speech Communication Department. The primary purpose of this study was to identify the conditions necessary for untrained observers to predict successful deception in labor-management negotiations. A secondary purpose was to discover observers' descriptions most commonly associated with negotiators. The dependent variable was an observer's judgment that deception would succeed in the negotiations context, measured by a 7-point Likert-type scale. The primary set of independent variables were HEARER-BELIEFS of a speaker's intent, the propositional content of the utterance made and the speaker's sincerity, measured by a 7-point Likert-type scale. The secondary set of independent variables were ten (10) plausible characteristics of a negotiator represented as bi-polar adjectives, measured by a 7-point semantic differential scale. The statistical procedures included a three-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Scheffe's Test and a factor analysis. The three-way ANOVA allowed for presentation of the three (3) conditions in combination, permitting maximal detection of interactions. Also, the three-way ANOVA allowed for the introduction of and adjustment for each of the four (4) covariates. A single condition emerged as necessary for observers to predict successful deception in a labor-management negotiation session (content, p < .001). No single configuration of HEARER-BELIEFS was significantly more important in a prediction of successful deception than any other configuration. The quality of genuineness emerged as a primary criterion by which negotiators were described. Union leaders were evaluated by a secondary criterion of motivation. The belief-states of negotiators is far from being thoroughly understood. Research on deceptive communication, sensitive to context, should focus on the process of how humans predict successful deception. A cognitive index of deceptive communicative acts is proposed and a framework for future research is discussed.

Prevenient message making: the development of the communicative self.Hooyberg, Volker January 2000 (has links)
Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of doctor of literature and philosophy in the subject communication science at the University of Zululand, South Africa, 2000. / This study investigates the ontological and psychological conditions of the process of prevenient message making leading to the constitution of the communicative self. It articulates the dimension of prevenience involved in the process of message making contextualized within the emerging computer-mediated communication milieu. The study clarifies the significance of associating prevenient message making with the development of the communicative self with respect to constituting oneself as a contemporary in contradistinction to the contingent. In the context of human communication, the study presents a • particular focus on authenticity associated with the communicator as a genuine individual. In developing a linkage between prevenient message making and the communicative self, the study traces the traditional Christian theological concept of prevenient grace in its ultimately spiritual roots. It situates prevenient message making in the context of a more fundamental understanding of intra and interpersonal communication, and orientates the thesis within the work of key thinkers such as Simone Weil, Soren Kierkegaard, George Simmel, and Martin Versfeld.
