The purpose of this study was to present a content analysis of seven music therapy journals in the English language in order to provide an objective documentation of the longitudinal growth of the field. The current study examined seven English language music therapy journals including the Journal of Music Therapy, Music Therapy: Journal of the American Association for Music Therapy, Music Therapy Perspectives, The Australian Journal of Music Therapy, The Nordic Journal of Music Therapy, The British Journal of Music Therapy, and The New Zealand Society for Music Therapy Journal. A total of 1,922 articles were coded according to author information (name, credentials, institution, geographic location), mode of inquiry, population studied, and subsequent article citation. Results indicated a broad range of research topics with a rapid rise in music and medicine research beginning in the 1980s. Research authors in music therapy comprise a diverse group of authors both from the United States and abroad. This study highlighted transitions in institutional productivity moving from clinical settings to academic settings. Over the course of 50 years, there have been continuous changes in various aspects of the music therapy literature that document the continuing growth of the profession. / Music Therapy

Kamala Harris made history on November 7, 2020, when she was elected as the first female Vice President of the United States. In addition to being the first woman, she became the first African-American and Indian-American to attain this position. As a result, the media had to grapple with how to cover her historic campaign from the moment she was announced as the vice-presidential selection. This qualitative thematic analysis examined The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal's coverage of her campaign with significant analysis on important events such as the initial buzz surrounding her selection, the convention speech, and the vice-presidential debate. Specifically, this study examines 70 news articles total from both newspapers from August 11-November 3, 2020 to determine the recurring themes from her coverage. Results indicated that although traditional media frames and themes were not a significant focus, Harris's intersectionality brought about a new set of frames to explore, with subtle differences between the two newspapers. Implications of these results and future considerations for the media are discussed. / Master of Arts / Kamala Harris made history on November 7, 2020, when she was elected as the first female Vice President of the United States. In addition to being the first woman, she became the first African-American and Indian-American to attain this position. Throughout her campaign, the media had to learn how to cover an historic candidate effectively, since this moment had no precedent. This thesis chose to explore The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal's coverage of her campaign because of their influence in shaping the news around the country and they both represent different sides of the political spectrum. Important events that are covered include the initial announcement, the convention speech, and the vice-presidential debate. This study looks to determine if the stereotypical frames that the media places on female candidates are still seen with Harris. Results indicated that although traditional media stereotypes were not a significant focus, Harris's identity brought about a new set of themes to analyze, with each paper focusing on different aspects. Implications of these results and future considerations for the media are discussed.

À partir des années 1870, se développe un peu partout la presse à bon marché, et avec elle les faits divers. Les dirigeants des journaux comprennent très vite l’intérêt de publier ce genre de nouvelles qui attire un nombre grandissant de lecteurs des classes populaires. Pour les journaux nationaux, tels que La Presse et Le Petit Parisien, le fait divers est « roi ». Devant plaire toujours plus, le fait divers connaît des transformations visuelles avec l'apparition des gros titres, de la « Une », et de la photographie. Les fait-diversiers sont à la recherche du moindre aspect sensationnel. Les changements sont plus complexes et plus lents dans la presse régionale avec des journaux comme L'Avenir de la Vienne et L'Événement. L'entreprise de presse est dans les deux cas moins importante, et doit donc faire face à des problèmes financiers. Plutôt que de risquer perdre des lecteurs peu intéressés par les faits divers, les journaux privilégient l'aspect local de leurs nouvelles. Cependant, le fait divers est plus qu'un article de presse. Dans les quatre journaux, les rédacteurs l'utilisent à des fins éducatrices. Rarement explicites dans les récits, les journalistes préfèrent mettre en garde, interpeler, commenter et parfois juger. En fait, à travers l'ensemble des faits divers, se dessine une morale plus universelle. Pauvre ou riche, homme ou femme, jeune ou plus âgé, ils ne peuvent tout maîtriser. L'inconnu et l'aléatoire pèsent toujours sur leur vie. Ils sont supplantés par une force quasi divine, une aura surnaturelle : le destin. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Fait divers, Journal, Presse, Journalisme d'opinion / Nouveau journalisme, Sensationnalisme, Comparaison, Fait culturel, Morale, Norme, Normal, Rédaction, Fait-diversier, Séduction, Émotion, Spectacle, Mortalité, Véracité, Proximité géographique, Québec, France
