The Challenges Facing Jordanian Newspaper and Ways to Confront them from the viewpoint of Jordanian Journalists Working in the Newspapers
Get PDFالأهداف: هدفت الدراسة إلى تعرُّف التحديات التي تواجه الصحافة الورقية الأردنية وأسباب تراجعها من وجهة نظر الصحفيين العاملين في هذه الصحف.
المنهجية: تنتمي هذه الدراسة إلى الدراسات الوصفية؛ حيث اعتمدت على منهج المسح باستخدام الاستبانة لجمع البيانات من عينة قوامها (124) مفردة من الصحفيين العاملين في الصحف الورقية.
النتائج: كشفت النتائج أن أهم أسباب تراجع الصحف الورقية الأردنية هي مشكلات في التخطيط التسويقي، وعدم وجود استقلالية بسياسة التحرير داخل هذه المؤسسات، وتوجه القراء نحو الصحافة الإلكترونية لسرعة الحصول على الأخبار الآنية. أدى ذلك إلى المنافسة في قطاع الإعلان بين الصحف الورقية والإلكترونية. يضاف إلى ذلك أن الأزمة الاقتصادية العالمية قد انعكست على الصحف الورقية وتسببت بانخفاض الميزانيات المخصصة في الشركات الخاصة للإعلانات، مما أدى إلى تراجع أعداد اشتراكات المؤسسات والأفراد. كما كشفت الدراسة أن جائحة كورونا وتفشيها لم تكن السبب الرئيس للأزمة المالية كون الأزمة بدأت منذ عشر سنوات مضت، إلا أن هذه الجائحة فاقمت من الوضع المتردي للصحف بسبب الإغلاق الشامل في بداية الجائحة والقرارات الحكومية لتوقيفها لفترة تزيد عن شهرين مما انعكس على عدم قدرة الصحف دفع مستحقات العاملين والصحفيين ولجوئها إلى تخفيض الرواتب والاستغناء عن بعض العاملين فيها.
الخلاصة: خلصت الدراسة بناء على وجهة نظر الصحفيين الأردنيين إلى أهمية التقليل من التدخلات بإدارة المؤسسات، ومنحها سقف حرية أكبر لجذب القراء من خلال تطوير محتواها، والاتجاه نحو التحقيقات والتقارير المعمقة، واستخدام الصحافة الاستقصائية لمعالجة القضايا الاجتماعية التي تواجه المجتمع الأردني. إضافة إلى قيام الحكومة بدعمها من خلال إقرار إعفاءات على مدخلات إنتاج الصحف.Objectives: The study aims to identify the challenges that face Jordanian newspapers and the reasons for their decline from the viewpoint of journalists working in these newspapers.
Methods: The study belongs to the field of descriptive studies by conducting a survey using a questionnaire to collect data from a sample of 124 journalists working in newspapers.
Results: The results revealed that the most important reasons for Jordanian newspaper’s decline are marketing planning problems, a lack of independence in editorial policy within these institutions, and readers’ preference for the electronic press for the speed of obtaining real-time news. This led to competition in the advertising sector between newspapers and electronic newspapers. The global economic crisis reduced advertising budgets, impacting newspapers, and causing a decline in institutions and individual subscriptions. The study found that the financial crisis of newspapers, starting ten years ago, was not primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the pandemic exacerbated the situation with comprehensive closures and government decisions, preventing newspapers from paying workers and journalists, leading to staff reductions.
Conclusions: The study concluded, based on the Jordanian journalists’ point of view, that it is crucial to reduce interventions in the management of institutions and give them more freedom to attract readers through the development of their content. They also need to prepare in-depth investigations and reports and investigative journalism to address social issues facing Jordanian society. In addition, the government shall support by approving exemptions on newspaper production inputs
The impact of spreading rumors through social networks on Jordanian national security, and ways to face it from the perspective of Jordanian Political and Media Elites: The impact of social media rumors on national security
No full textهدفت الدراسة التعرف على تأثير الشائعات عبر شبكات التواصل الاجتماعي على الأمن القومي الأردني وسبل مواجهتها من وجهة نظر النخب السياسية والإعلامية الأردنية، واستخدمت الدراسة المنهج الوصفي التحليلي، ومنهج المسح عن طريق تصميم استبانة تم توزيعها على عينة قوامها (125) مفردة من النخب الأردنية السياسية والإعلامية، وقد توصلت الدراسة إلى عدد من النتائج كان أهمها: أن أكثر شبكات التواصل الاجتماعي نشراً للشائعات وتأثيراً على الأمن القومي هي شبكة الفيس بوك بنسبة بلغت (83.7%)، وأن أكثر مضامين الشائعات عبر شبكات التواصل الاجتماعي - التي تشكل خطورة على الأمن القومي - هي "إثارة البلبلة والتأثير على الشعور الوطني للمواطنين" وجاءت بنسبة (90.70%)، وأن خطورة شائعات شبكات التواصل الاجتماعي على الأمن القومي تتمثل في المرتبة الأولى "بنشر الفوضى في المجتمع" ، كما توصلت الدراسة إلى أن أفضل السبل لمكافحة الشائعات هي توفير المعلومات الرسمية ونفي الشائعات والرد عليها" وجاءت بنسبة بلغت(72.09%).This study aims to identify the impact of rumors through social networks on national security and ways to face them from the point of view of the Jordanian political and media elites. This study belongs to the descriptive studies using the survey methodology, which conducted a sample of (125) individuals from Jordanian Political and Media Elites. The study concluded that the most important social network spreading rumors and affecting national security is Facebook, with a percentage of (83.7%); the most content of rumors on social networks that poses a threat to national security is causing confusion and influencing the patriotic feeling of citizens, which reached (90.70%). Also, the danger of social media rumors to national security is represented chiefly by spreading chaos in society. The study also concluded that the best ways to combat rumors are to provide official information and deny and counter them, which reached (72.09%)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
