Purpose This study examined caregiver perceptions of their child's language and literacy disorder as influenced by communications with their speech-language pathologist. Method The participants were 12 caregivers of 10 school-aged children with language and literacy disorders. Employing qualitative methods, a collective case study approach was utilized in which the caregiver(s) of each child represented one case. The data came from semistructured interviews, codes emerged directly from the caregivers' responses during the interviews, and multiple coding passes using ATLAS.ti software were made until themes were evident. These themes were then further validated by conducting clinical file reviews and follow-up interviews with the caregivers. Results Caregivers' comments focused on the types of information received or not received, as well as the clarity of the information. This included information regarding their child's diagnosis, the long-term consequences of their child's disorder, and the connection between language and reading. Although caregivers were adept at describing their child's difficulties and therapy goals/objectives, their comments indicated that they struggled to understand their child's disorder in a way that was meaningful to them and their child. Conclusions The findings showed the value caregivers place on receiving clear and timely diagnostic information, as well as the complexity associated with caregivers' understanding of language and literacy disorders. The findings are discussed in terms of changes that could be made in clinical practice to better support children with language and literacy disorders and their families.

An ethnographic case study approach to understanding women’s actions and reactions to husbands’ emigration—or potential emigration—offers a distinct set of challenges to a U.S.-based researcher.  International migration research in a foreign context likely offers challenges in language, culture, lifestyle, as well as potential gender norm impediments. A mixed methods approach contributed to successfully overcoming barriers through an array of research methods, strategies, and tactics, as well as practicing flexibility in data gathering methods. Even this researcher’s influence on the research was minimized and alleviated, to a degree, through ascertaining common ground with many of the women. Research with the women of San Juan Guelavía, Oaxaca, Mexico offered numerous and constant challenges, each overcome with ensuing rewards.

Smart-TVs mit immer eindrucksvolleren Fähigkeiten sind der Trend im Bereich der Consumer Electronics. Die intelligenten Geräte sind nicht nur eine technische Neuerung, sondern sie stellen traditionelle Konzepte in Wirtschaft, Recht, Politik und Gesellschaft vor große Herausforderungen. Die bisweilen auch als „Hybrid-TV“ bezeichneten Gerate stehen für eine neue Dimension der Konvergenz und rücken als Forschungsgegenstand in den Fokus ganz unterschiedlicher medienwissenschaftlicher Disziplinen. Technisch muss man sich zunächst einmal klarmachen, wie die Verschmelzung von Fernseh- und Online- Welt tatsächlich funktioniert und welche Begrifflichkeiten die neue Fernsehwelt hervorgebracht hat. In wirtschaftlicher Hinsicht stellt sich dann unter anderem die Frage, wie weit Charakteristika der Internet-Ökonomie bei einem Verknüpfen von Internet und Fernsehen Implikationen für die Erlös- und Refinanzierungsmodelle des TV haben. Ob die noch immer rundfunkzentrierten Vorgaben des Medienrechts die mit Smart-TV einhergehenden Fragen tatsachlich noch sachgerecht adressieren, ist fraglich, was einen Blick auf die medienpolitische Entwicklung erforderlich macht. Schließlich besteht Erörterungsbedarf dahingehend, wie sich der stärkere Grad der Individualisierung von Inhalten und die damit verbundene Zersplitterung der Rezeptionswirkung auf die Gesellschaft auswirken.
