Theorizing Mediated Information Distortion

Theorizing Mediated Information Distortion

Brian H. Spitzberg

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2023
nidottu
This book explores the phenomenon of distortion of information through media via the lens of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ways in which relevant information distortion and virality have occurred in regard to the disease and its risks. Positing that the interrelated processes of misinformation, disinformation, fake news and conspiracy theories are related forms of distortion of information through media (DIM) and can only be understood through a multilevel theoretical model that incorporates message-based, individual difference, social network-based, societal and geotechnical factors, Brian H. Spitzberg develops an integrative, well-argued, and well-evidenced framework within which these issues can and should be addressed. This book offers a model for further research across such disciplines as communication, journalism/media studies, political science, sociology, cognitive psychology, social psychology, evolutionary psychology, public health, big data analytics, social network analytics, computational linguistics and geographic information sciences, and will interest researchers and students in those areas.

Never Enough Time

Never Enough Time

Brian H. Spitzberg

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
sidottu
Never Enough Time discusses the directional and irreversible nature of time, its relationship to information and entropy, the deep time history of communication from the genesis of language to today, and the extent to which we occupy time through our communication.Drawing together studies from a wide variety of disciplines and topics that provide quantitative estimates of how much daily time is expended communicating and relating to others, the author demonstrates that in an increasingly accelerating, mediated and information overloaded ecosystem, we spend most of our time, both socially and occupationally, engaged in various forms of communication. He examines the nature of time in the context of our increasingly overloaded and mediated information and communication ecosystem, the extent to which our increasing screen time displaces face-to-face interaction, and the implications this trend has for our quality and quantity of life, particularly for younger populations. In addition, a case is made for the importance of developing standardized measures of time, made all the more feasible with digital technologies already available for quantifying behavior at population scales.This book will appeal to graduate students, scholars, and researchers interested in time, communication theory, new media and media studies, and communication and personal relationships.

Families by Agreement

Families by Agreement

Brian H. Bix

Cambridge University Press
2023
sidottu
In this highly original work, renowned family and contract law expert Brian H. Bix explores the increasing legal recognition of private ordering in American family law. Today, individuals can alter the terms of a marriage and divorce through agreements, and courts sometimes allow individuals to create, waive, and alter parental rights by way of surrogacy, open adoption, and co-parenting agreements, among other mechanisms. But when is such private ordering beneficial to all, and when should it be regulated or prohibited? Families by Agreement explores these questions in accessible detail to provide an important resource for those who litigate in these areas and for those who want to be thoughtful participants in these moral and policy debates.
