2. TV-tittande som dialog : På väg mot en symbolisk-interaktionistisk TV-teori
Sammanfattning : Research itself - on television and the young - is the object of this research. From a humanistic viewpoint, relational and interactional concepts are critically scrutinized: how have eg 'identification' and 'para-social interaction' been defined and used by (psycho-analytically influenced) mass communication researchers in sociology, psychology and pedagogy in order to allegedly 'explain' the 'effects' of television on the identity, personality or behavior of young viewers? These definitions and uses are found lacking in many respects, and the views of insightful film theoreticians are recommended instead. LÄS MER

5. Invisible voices : understanding the sociocultural influences on adult migrantsʼ second language learning and communicative interaction
Sammanfattning : This dissertation is a qualitative study exploring the sociocultural influences on adult migrants’ second language learning and the communicative interaction through which they use the language.
