This document discusses methods for conducting comparative survey research across multiple countries and cultures. It identifies three types of cross-national surveys: replicated surveys, planned surveys for two or more countries, and international surveys. Conducting comparative research presents challenges like selecting representative country samples, establishing ethical standards, and achieving inter-cultural equivalence in sampling, questionnaires, and interview procedures. The goal is functional rather than just formal equivalence, where the meanings of survey questions are identical across different cultural contexts.
PREDICTING POPULARITY OF KOREAN CONTENTS IN ARAB COUNTRIES USING A DATA MININ...
Recently, many people in the Middle East and North Africa enjoy watching a variety of Korean
contents such as Korean dramas, films, broadcasting programs and listening to Korean Pops.
The Korean wave refers to the phenomenon of Korean entertainment and popular culture
rolling over the world with TV dramas, films and pop music. Also it is known as "Hallyu "
literally meaning 'flow from Korea' in Korean. This study examines the analysis of pattern on
Arab countries (Middle East and North Africa) Consumers' consumption of the Korean
Contents using social media, Facebook data. Then we focus on developing Predictive System
using a Data Mining Technique.
Television and bias
This document discusses bias in various media formats including television, news, advertising, and sports. It addresses whether these media are objective and how they may influence audiences. Specific topics covered include political bias in late night television and local news, the role of advertising in promoting products and movies, racial stereotyping in ads, and how sports endorsements and the Olympics/Super Bowl impact viewership and consumer behavior. The document provides citations for numerous academic journal articles analyzing bias related to these topics.
Triple helix 2012 president
This document analyzes social media data from Korea's 2012 presidential election to understand campaign dynamics. It collected data on mentions of the three major candidates from Facebook, Twitter, and Google on several dates. Results show Twitter generated the most negative entropy, followed by Facebook, indicating it was the most open communication system. The liberal candidates saw higher entropy on social media than the conservative candidate. The study suggests conventional theories may be limited and online data provides better insights into election campaigns.

Longitudinal Research - prepared by Fiza Zia Ul Hannan
When referring to mass media, these studies bear significance in long term exposure to media content and social development. Despite being of minimal usage, the importance of these studies cannot be undermined, both theoretically and socially. These types of study are found more relevant to be used among psychologists and sociologists. With a systematic timely empirical analysis, it becomes easier for them to determine cognitive deviations in parallel with changing lifestyles of the society. Such studies are also common in medicine where diseases are thoroughly studied to identify a predictor.

This document summarizes a study that examined the relationship between media use and political knowledge and behavior among undergraduates in Southwestern Nigeria. The study found that exposure to electronic media like television, radio and the internet predicted higher political knowledge and behavior than print media. Television was also found to be the dominant source of political information for respondents. Based on these findings, the study suggests that government and media proprietors should work to improve access to informative print media to curb poor reading habits among youth.
The Networked Cultural Diffusion of Kpop on YouTube
This document summarizes a study that used webometric analysis to examine the network diffusion of the Kpop song "Gangnam Style" on YouTube. The study analyzed over 1,000 comments to understand the actors involved, their networks and interactions, and sentiments expressed. Key findings include that the majority of commenters were young males from North America and Europe. Interactions occurred among a small group of highly engaged users, while most only subscribed. Commenters discussed Korean culture and media. Users from cultures more similar to Korean culture expressed more positive sentiments toward the song. The study provides a webometric approach for understanding cultural diffusion evaluation stages on YouTube.

This document provides a literature review and background on a study examining factors influencing the political participation of students at the University of Johannesburg. It discusses the following key points in 3 sentences:
The study aims to understand why political participation has declined among South African youth by examining how students' demographic characteristics and perceptions of the ruling ANC party influence their participation. The literature review covers political participation in general, and how race, class, and perceptions of the ANC have been found to shape political involvement. The document provides context on the study which used a survey to quantitatively measure how factors like race, class, and views of government affect the political participation of students at the University of Johannesburg.

The study analyzed Twitter discussions about the Korean president Myung-Bak Lee between November 2011 and April 2012. It found that liberal Twitter users, such as journalists and media outlets, were more influential opinion leaders and active in the discussions than conservative users. The Twitter network was broken into subgroups with similar political views, with the largest clusters generally expressing liberal perspectives.
Monitoring Nepal's Peace Process and Constituion Drafting Process Project
This document summarizes the final performance evaluation report of the Monitoring Nepal's Peace Process and Constitution Drafting Process Project implemented by The Carter Center from 2009 to 2014. The evaluation assessed the impact of the Carter Center's political reports and monitoring of Nepal's voter registration process. It found that the political reports provided valuable information to stakeholders in Kathmandu about developments outside the capital. It also found that the Election Commission of Nepal acted on several findings and recommendations from Carter Center reports regarding voter registration. The evaluation concluded that while direct influence on decision-making cannot be proven, Carter Center monitoring likely had some positive impact on Nepal's peace process and elections. It also identified lessons learned for future long-term political monitoring efforts.

Vivian Hsueh-Hua Chen: Online Participation and Public discourseDanube University Krems, Centre for E-Governance
This study examines the relationships between opinion leadership, followership, curatorship and political participation. It finds that opinion leadership, followership and two types of curatorship (critical and networked) are distinct constructs. Opinion leaders have higher socioeconomic status and participate more in online and offline political activities than followers. Critical curators are more connected to various media sources and participate more in offline politics, while networked curators rely more on specific media and participate more on social networks and offline. The study provides new perspectives in understanding how people engage with politics beyond traditional models of opinion leadership and followership.WAPOR 2013 Langer Research: Counterpart-STEP
The document summarizes a study assessing the effectiveness of civic education programs in Afghanistan called STEP, which aimed to encourage political and civic engagement. Key findings include:
1) STEP participants showed increased political and civic engagement, such as interest in politics, solving local problems, and voter registration, even after controlling for demographic factors.
2) Program quality, as rated by participants, and local living conditions strongly predicted civic engagement outcomes. Basic needs must be met for programs to be effective.
3) Some community-level impacts were found, such as increased trust in government, but personal interventions may be more effective than broader community impacts.
Foreign Relations: Perceived Impact on Kenya’s Development
• US-China global super-power rivalry evident in Kenyans’ perceptions of development needs and concerns.
Introduction
As U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry continues with his high-level meetings, he may be interested to know who Kenyans consider are their most valuable development partners, as well as which foreign countries outside the immediate East Africa region whose perceived interests in Kenya cause them most concern. These realities formed part of Ipsos’ most recent national survey.

- The document analyzes social media data from the 2011 Portuguese elections to model opinion dynamics using social impact theory
- Data was collected from Twitter, including tweets about candidates and parties as well as news media feeds
- A multi-agent model was developed based on social impact theory where agents influence each other and are influenced by media
- The model was validated against real tweet data and showed it could accurately estimate election results from social media activity
Ethnic Diversity and Social Trust
This thesis examines the relationship between ethnic diversity and social trust in post-apartheid Cape Town, South Africa. Previous research has proposed three main theories on this relationship: the contact theory argues that diversity increases trust through intergroup contact, while the conflict theory argues it decreases inter-ethnic trust but increases intra-ethnic trust. Putnam's constrict theory suggests diversity decreases all types of trust. The author conducted fieldwork including a survey experiment in Cape Town to test which theory best explains the reality in post-apartheid South Africa. The results aim to contribute new understanding to debates on diversity and social capital.

This study explores the dynamics among media, public opinion, and presidents regarding environmental issues in the U.S. over several decades. The study finds reciprocal influences among these groups in shaping the environmental discourse. It finds that presidential agenda influences media agenda, and public agenda influences public attitudes. However, the relationships are complex rather than linear. The study also finds that changes in media and public agendas influence attitudes more than the reverse. This suggests media effects should be analyzed at different levels of impact.Page 1 of 2 Summer 2020 AFR 110N Sec. 101, Dr. Gove.docx

This document summarizes the key findings of a joint opinion poll conducted by think tanks in Japan, the US, China, and South Korea regarding perceptions of the future of Northeast Asia. The poll found:
1) Majorities in all four countries believe China's influence in Asia will continue increasing in the next decade, while fewer see US influence increasing.
2) Opinions are divided on which countries can best handle world problems, with Japanese and Americans having more confidence in the US and EU while Chinese and South Koreans have more confidence in China.
3) There are also differences in perceptions of which countries should assume global leadership, with Japanese and Americans citing the US while Chinese cite Russia.
Human rights & IRs
This document discusses two perspectives on the relationship between human rights and state sovereignty in international relations: the communitarian/statist perspective and the cosmopolitan/universal perspective. It also examines how international human rights conventions and declarations have expanded the domain of international law and eroded state sovereignty by establishing rights that individuals possess as humans rather than citizens. The document explores debates around humanitarian intervention and when it may be justified to interfere in a state's domestic affairs to protect human rights.
Domestic politics & IR making
This document discusses domestic sources of influence on foreign policy. It outlines that a country's domestic society, including public opinion, interest groups, elites, and leaders, shapes its foreign policy preferences and objectives. Different social groups within a country may have differing stances on foreign policy issues based on their interests. A democratic government must consider these societal influences and seek public support when formulating foreign policy. However, a leader may also attempt to shape public opinion to build support for their policies. The document uses China's concept of "peaceful rise" as an example of how a country's strategic culture and shared beliefs can influence its foreign policy approach.
Understanding Taiwan Politics through the 2016 Elections
1. The document analyzes Taiwan's 2016 elections and political landscape, discussing factors like China's influence through business and media ties, Taiwan's two main political parties, and identity issues.
2. It notes misunderstandings around portrayals of Taiwan politics and examines the status of the opposition DPP party.
3. Major events that shaped politics in recent years included the 2014 Sunflower Movement protests and debates over Taiwan's relationship with China versus an independent Taiwanese identity.
Current affairs (2011)
This document appears to be a series of slides from a presentation given by Dr. Wai-Kwok Benson Wong of the Department of Government & International Studies at Hong Kong Baptist University on March 30, 2011. The presentation discusses current affairs in Hong Kong, noting that understanding current events requires examining them in their proper context and from multiple perspectives rather than relying on common sense or personal views. One reference from a 2011 report on the state of Hong Kong's political system after the first decade of the 21st century is included.
東北亞地區的未來與挑戰的民調分析
This document summarizes the results of a poll survey conducted by Genron-NPO in Japan on public opinions regarding the future challenges in Northeast Asia. Over 1,000 respondents were polled in each of China, Japan, South Korea, and the US between April and September 2015. The poll aimed to understand public perceptions of each country's economic influence, cultural exchange, political/diplomatic relations, and territorial disputes. It also examined the role of public opinion and elite leaders in shaping foreign policies in the region. The analysis found that China's growing economic impact is a major factor, and that China is viewed with some skepticism regarding its assertiveness in international affairs and moral approach to conflict resolution.

Umbrella Movement and Hong Kong Identity
The document discusses the Umbrella Movement and Hong Kong identity. It provides context on how local Hong Kong identity is used as an energy and discourse to justify protest actions. It examines the influence of Taiwan's Sunflower Movement in resisting Chinese influence. It then visualizes and redefines the local identity of Hong Kong people through the Lion Rock Spirit of persistence despite suppression. Finally, it analyzes three dimensions of local identity: identity for empowerment through political aspiration; identity as a goal to challenge Chinese dominance and dependence; and identity as a strategy to deploy Lion Rock Spirit and critique the government.

Analytical Framework for Education Issues
This document discusses conceptual foundations of educational issues from both a policy and sociological perspective. It covers topics such as policy definitions, the policy process including formulation, adoption, implementation and evaluation. It also examines stakeholders in the policy process and the sociological perspective on the functions of schooling in society. Specifically, it describes functionalism theory which posits that schools play a role in maintaining social harmony and cultural transmission by socializing students and preparing them for their future adult roles.
media & education
This document discusses media perception of local education. It aims to understand how mass media reports on education and the possible impacts of different reporting approaches. It notes media may focus on positive topics like student results or reforms, or negative topics like poor performance or protests. The document also discusses some challenges in media reporting, like a "politics of scapegoating" that blames stakeholders for issues. It questions whether media accurately reflects public views or distorts reality, and whether reporting is objective and truthful.
