Keynote given at the Broadcast Education Association on April 17, 2016. Purpose was to portray ways in which the media can play to influence agenda setting in an era of new communication channels.
Knowledge Gap Hypothesis:
Introduction:
This theory is concerned mainly with “information” and “knowledge” and emphasizes that knowledge is not distributed equally throughout society.
There are haves and have-nots with regard to information just as material wealth Information is very important in our society because any developed country depends on well-informed citizens.
It appears certain that information will be even more important in the future as we move into an increasingly technological age.
Many contemporary issues will require information and an informed public for the solutions for such issues.
Role of mass communication:
* One of the great promises of mass communication is that it provides people with information they need.
* It has the potential of reaching people who have not been reached by other means (poor and undeveloped people).
One example of an effort to use mass communication to provide information to the disadvantaged is the “educational TV program” Sesame Street (which combined information with entertainment for preschool Children.).
Other mass communication efforts that have the advantage of getting information to people usually not reached
is the televised presidential debates that might take the presidential election campaigns to people who would not normally be exposed to the campaign.
The attempts to increase people’s quantities of information from mass media might have some unexpected or undesirable effects.
This undesirable possibility is that mass communication might actually have the effect of increasing the gap in knowledge between members of different social classes. This possibility is called: “ Knowledge gap Hypothesis”.
The authors of Knowledge Gap Hypothesis:
• § The Knowledge Gap Hypothesis was first proposed in 1970 by Tichenor, Donohue and OLien. Mostly, it is known as Tichenor et al or Tichenor and his colleagues’ hypothesis.
Tichenor et al . Stated the KG Hypothesis as follow:
“As the infusion of mass media information into a social system increases, segments of the population with higher socio-economic status tend to acquire this information at a faster rate than the lower status segments, so that the gap in knowledge between these two segments tend to increase rather than decrease”.
The hypothesis predicts that:
• § People of both high and low socioeconomic status will gain in knowledge because of the additional information, but that persons of higher socioeconomic status will gain more.
• § This would mean that the relative gap in knowledge between the well-to-do and less well-off would increase.
Tichenor and his colleagues suggest that:
The K. G. is particularly likely to occur in such areas of general interest as public affairs and science news. It is less likely to occur in more specific areas that are related to people’s particular interests-areas like sports or garden care.

TV In the context of: “Uses and Gratification approach”Rijitha R
Uses & Gratifications approach arose originally in the 1940s and underwent a revival in the 1970s and 1980s. It presents the use of media in terms of the gratification of social or psychological needs of the individual (Blumler & Katz 1974). The mass media compete with other sources of gratification, but gratifications can be obtained from a medium's content (e.g. watching a specific program). Zillmann (cited by McQuail 1987: 236) has shown the influence of mood on media choice: boredom encourages the choice of exciting content and stress encourages a choice of relaxing content. The same TV program may gratify different needs for different individuals.

The 2015 MDigitalLIfe Social Oncology Project ReportW2O Group
This is the third edition of our Social Oncology Project report, which seeks to understand the nature of the online conversation about cancer by looking in-depth at both what information is shared via online channels, as well as the kind of individuals who are sharing that data.
This year, we took a different approach. We did not seek to pull the largest possible dataset, regardless of author. Instead, we used broad—but carefully curated—communities for whom cancer is an especially pertinent topic, and we examined both those specific communities discussed.

Barriers still exist in science, especially when it comes to communication. Many admit that scientists should be using simple, everyday language in scientific discussions and at the same time, they want to understand how science can help them live longer, healthier lives or get better-paying jobs. Scientists who tell stories that lead with the benefits to humanity will connect with their audience.
This year’s State of Science Index findings around the need for effective science communication have inspired us to make a difference. Our “scientists as storytellers” guide helps people in STEM fields enhance their communications skills, overcome common challenges, and learn how to make science more accessible, understandable and engaging to others.
Our guide features advice from world-renowned experts in communication—like journalist Katie Couric, actor Alan Alda, and author and former NASA astronaut, Captain Scott Kelly—as well as professional scientists who share proven practices in effective storytelling. Alda has dedicated many years to advancing science communications through the Alda Center for Communicating Science from which about 14,000 scientists have graduated.
If you’ve ever faced challenges when explaining science to non-scientists, this guide is for you. Download now to see how you can better communicate the innovative work you do

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Cancer Prevention & Control in the Changing Communication Landscape
1. Cancer Prevention & Control in the Changing
Communication Landscape
Bradford W. Hesse, PhD
Chief, Health Communication and
Informatics Research Branch
2. In 2005, 61.6% (+/- 1.6) of Americans
thought of cancer as a death sentence.
Is it?
3. In 2015, news outlets reported that
cancer is “just bad luck.”
Is that
right?
4. What do the
Data Say? What researchers found:
Correlation between
• Type of cell & life time risk
• Cells that divided frequently had
greater probability of mutation
• Unless prevented …
“It’s like ... traffic patterns.There is a
tight correlation between the number
of cars on the roads and the number of
accidents, but that doesn’t mean that it’s
pure bad luck if you have an accident.
Bad luck is not scientific: Many cases can
be prevented”
32. Confusion Can Cost Lives
“One in four people in
the United States—nearly
80 million—are infected
with at least one type of
human papillomavirus
(HPV)”
