Comparative cultural closeness between Canada and the U.S. established in part by the Hofstede (1980) study continues to influence some business research efforts that assume cultural parity between the two nations. Sampling business professionals, evidence emerges that cautions assuming cultural parity between Canada and the U.S. based on typical and selected Anglo culture type dimensions. Contributing as an updated empirical test of the Anglo culture type assumption between the two nations, uncertainty avoidance was higher in the U.S. sample and varied more by country than by individual characteristics or by an indication of professional discipline type.

We focus on the relationships among three types of television viewing (news, police reality, and crime drama) and attitudes toward capital punishment and handguns, as well as the likelihood of actually owning a handgun.

A series of direct and indirect relationships are assessed. Analysis suggests that viewing police reality shows is both directly and indirectly related to the endorsement of capital punishment and handgun ownership, while also directly predicting a greater likelihood of actual handgun ownership. In addition, TV news viewing predicts fear of crime in audience members, and this fear contributes to the endorsement of capital pu...

In 2005, only 23 percent of a national sample of 12th graders scored at the "proficient" level on a standardized math exam.2 Even highly educated adults struggle on numeracy tests that require simple transformations between differently expressed ratios such as percentages, fractions and probabilities.3 Many journalists are among the mathematically challenged, often unable to understand descriptive and inferential statistics and even less able to put these numbers into context.4 A number of "math for journalists" textbooks have been adopted by mass communication schools in recent years,5 but research indicates that high levels of math anxiety combined with relatively low levels of math ability remain among working journalists.6 This is of significant concern given the fact that news repo...

Vitiello discusses the main themes and principles of . Before proceeding, he clarifies that topology stems from the need to overcome the traditional division of knowledge, typical of Western culture, which goes back to the contrast between philosophy seen as episteme and philosophy seen as retorica.
