- Facilitating Problem Solving: A Case Study Using the Devil's Advocacy Technique
Numerous facilitative procedures have been developed and used by facilitators to assist groups with solving problems and making decisions. Working with a new student services work group at a university in Denver, Colorado, USA, I employed the devil's advocacy approach, which programs conflict into a problem-solving procedure through alternate recommendations and critiques of possible solutions by two subgroups. Use of the procedure helped group members to develop a deeper understanding of an important problem-motivating the academic administration and faculty to set and publish accurate course rotations in a timely fashion-and to articulate a series of actions to solve it. This facilitation case study revealed several enabling and inhibitive facilitator behaviors that further the unders...

- Advocacy at the Summit
Nothing carries the impact with congressional members and staff as much as a visit from a constituent," said ACA President Jay E. Gonsalves, IFCCE. "At this particular meeting, the constituents were major players in our industry. As such, they also represented large employers in their respective districts. In addition to discussing our issues of concern, we were able to convey not only our industry's vital role in the economy, but also the employment opportunities and pathways to success that we offer individuals. The FTC's presentation at the Executive Summit came on the heels of its recent report, Collecting Consumer Debts: The Challenges of Change: A Federal Trade Commission Workshop Report. Peggy Twohig, associate director of the FTC's Financial Practices Division, discussed the m...

- The Framesetting Effects of News: An Experimental Test of Advocacy Versus Objectivist Frames
This study merges framing and agenda-setting research by focusing on the relative power of certain news frames to limit audience cognition and influence attitudes. It proposes a cognitive-based model for understanding when news stories are likely to have the dual effect of transferring both object and frame salience to audiences, an effect here called "framesetting, " that is more likely to occur when the press employs advocacy frames using consensus cues as opposed to objectivist frames based on the journalistic norm of two-sidedness. Data from a controlled experimental test show that advocacy frames had a stronger framesetting effect than objectivist framed crime stories, transferring both object and frame salience to audiences and limiting audience cognition.
