Artikel om kvindefodbold, kampen om ligestilling inden for denne sport og dannelsen af DKFU.»Football! Why, that’s not for girls« – On the ball sports club, Femina, and its struggle to get football accepted as a sport for womenIn 1971 the female Danish football club BK Femina became the unofficial world champions in women’s football. Their success of the field was not an accident and has to be seen against the background of more than 10 years of fighting to get women’s football accepted as a sport for women. Taking as its starting point BK Femina’s sporting success, this article reveals which factors played a part in enabling women’s football to establish itself in Denmark as a sporting activity for women during the period 1959 to 1972, at which point women’s football was permitted entry into the national football league, the Danish Ballgames Union (DBU). It is suggested in the article, then, that acceptance of football as a sport for women must be seen in relation to the perception of what is understood as accepted feminine and masculine sporting practice, and in what way this understanding of gender in football altered over time in the period under analysis. Central to this process of change is the collaboration of mutual interests built up by women’s football, the media and sponsors.

The parameters and boundary conditions which control the flow processes vary greatly over short distances and over time, and it is inevitable that flow variables such as the hydraulic head and the fluid’s velocity are spatially variable. It is reasonable to model them as SRFs, not only because of the spatial variability, but also due to our inability to model them in detail with only the limited number of measurements usually available. This chapter presents the basic principles and a few methods for modeling flow variables as SRFs, while showing how these moments reflect the physics of the flow and how to use them in applications. The starting point in our derivations will be the moments that characterize the medium variability, such as σ2γ and I γ, and our goal is to develop the SRF models of flow variables such as the head and the velocity in terms of the media parameters and boundary conditions. To drive this point home, let us consider Darcy’s law for isotropic hydraulic conductivity: where qi is the specific flux in the ith direction, K is the isotropic hydraulic conductivity, and H is the hydraulic head. For a spatially variable K, the flux qi is also spatially variable (with the exception of the one-dimensional flow case). An SRF model for K can be used to construct an SRF for qi through (4.1), with the aid of the flow equation. SRFs can be characterized through their low-order statistical moments, but preferably through their pdfs. For example, the hydraulic head will be defined by its expected value (H) and its variance σ2 H = ((H - ( H ) ) 2 ) , but also through its pdf fH(h) where fH(h) dh is the probability of having H in the vicinity dh of h. SRFs may or may not be stationary depending on the nature of the hydrogeological variables such as K and on the boundary conditions. For example, the head is always nonstationary, except when there is no flow.

The Subject

The article is the result of many years’ studies in the functioning of the public service broadcaster in Poland, i.e. Telewizja Polska SA (TVP SA). The subject of the study is an analysis of two areas of operation of TVP SA: the process of change in programming, and distribution of the programme offerin the period from 1992 to 2015. The starting point of the analysis was the adoption of assumptions concerning the changes in the process of content distribution and the development of new programme forms and changes in the manner of consumption of the media (multi-screening).

This article examines the continued presence of racial folklore and the reproduction of dominant racial ideologies as presented by the media and fan interactions. The case of Israel (Izzy) Folau’s time at the Greater Western Sydney Giants Australian football club is presented, utilising an analysis of the club’s email communications, media coverage and discussions by sports fans on online message boards. The analysis identifies the significance of the player’s racialised body in constructions of masculinity and the extent to which it plays a role in the acceptance (or not) of an athlete. The article concludes that the narratives that are constructed around athletes are fluid and often change over time or in response to sporting performances or other external influences such as a change of team.

Over Time

Despite widespread concern, research on the consequences of misinformation on people's attitudes is surprisingly scant. To fill in this gap, the current study examines the long-term relationship between misinformation and trust in the news media. Based on the reinforcing spirals model, we analyzed data from a three-wave panel survey collected in Chile between 2017 and 2019. We found a weak, over-time relationship between misinformation and media skepticism. Specifically, initial beliefs on factually dubious information were negatively correlated with subsequent levels of trust in the news media. Lower trust in the media, in turn, was related over time to higher levels of misinformation. However, we found no evidence of a reverse, parallel process where media trust shielded users against misinformation, further reinforcing trust in the news media. The lack of evidence of a downward spiral suggests that the corrosive effects of misinformation on attitudes toward the news media are less serious than originally suggested. We close with a discussion of directions for future research.

Abstract A new project has just been launched to write a synchronic, descriptive grammar of Niçois, the Occitan dialect of Nice. In this article, I define the corpus of the research. To do so, I first review written production from the Middle Ages to the present. I then analyze the linguistic features of Niçois over time, in order to determine the precise starting point of the current language state. But because of reinforced normativism and the decreasing social use of Niçois among the educated population, written language after WWII became artificial and does not really correspond to recordings made in the field. The corpus will thus be composed of writings from the 1820’s to WWII and recordings from the last few decades.

Purpose This paper aims to answer the question of how the Polish representatives of social communication and media sciences communicate the most recent scientific findings in the media space, i.e. what types of publications are shared, what activities do they exemplify (sharing information about their own publications, leading discussions, formulating opinions), what is the form of the scientific communication created by them (publication of reference lists' descriptions, full papers, preprints and post prints) and what is the audience reception (number of downloads, displays, comments). Design/methodology/approach The authors present the results of analysis conducted on the presence of the most recent (2017–2019) publications by the Polish representatives of the widely understood social communication and media sciences in three selected social networking services for scientists: ResearchGate, Google Scholar and Academia.edu. The analyses covered 100 selected representatives of the scientific environment (selected in interval sampling), assigned, according to the OECD classification “Field of Science”, in the “Ludzie nauki” (Men of Science) database to the “media and communication” discipline. Findings The conducted analyses prove a low usage level of the potential of three analysed services for scientists by the Polish representatives of social communication and media sciences. Although 60% of them feature profiles in at least one of the services, the rest are not present there at all. From the total of 113 identified scientists' profiles, as little as 65 feature publications from 2017 to 2019. Small number of alternative metrics established in them, implies, in turn, that if these metrics were to play an important role in evaluation of the value and influence of scientific publications, then this evaluation for the researched Polish representatives of social communication and media sciences would be unfavourable. Originality/value The small presence of the Polish representatives of the communication and media sciences in three analysed services shows that these services may be – for the time being – only support the processes of managing own scientific output. Maybe this quite a pessimistic image of scientists' activities in the analysed services is conditioned by a simple lack of the need to be present in electronic channels of scientific communication or the lack of trust to the analysed services, which, in turn, should be linked to their shortcomings and flaws. However, unequivocal confirmation of these hypotheses might be brought by explorations covering a larger group of scientists, and complemented with survey studies. Thus, this research may constitute merely a starting point for further explorations, including elaboration of good practices with respect to usage of social media by scientists.

An Unstable Discipline. Journalism Studies & the Revolution in the Media An Unstable Discipline. Journalism Studies & the Revolution in the Media During the last decade media and journalism have got into turmoil; landslides have changed the traditional media landscape, overturning familiar marking points, institutions and patterns. To understand these radical changes journalism studies should not only develop a new research agenda, but also review its approach and perspective.This article looks back on recent development in the field and argues for a more cohesive perspective, taking journalism as a professional practice as its starting point. Furthermore a plea is made for a thorough research into the structural changes of the public sphere and the role and position of journalism.

This study investigates the phonological, semantic, and pragmatic features of acronyms in Arabic. Acronyms in Arabic have appeared quite recently as a result of globalization and exposure to or contact with, mainly, English via radio stations and TV channels, which are broadcasting in English and in some countries, for example, Morocco in both English and French. Through in-depth analysis, it has been observed that acronyms in Arabic are subject to different restrictions: (a) The phonological combinations are formed on the basis of Arabic templates; hence, should be compatible with Arabic phonotactics, for example, consonant clusters should be broken up by vowels; (b) the connotation of the acronyms should not be negative; and (c) in conformity with relevance theory, when the acronyms are homophonous to existing words, the former maximize contextual effects with minimum processing effort. The fact that they appear in certain contexts also reduces the processing effort. It has also become evident that the period between the establishment of the movement or party and the first use of the acronym decreases over time, provided that the acronyms are frequently mentioned in the media. The examination of acronyms in different languages shows that acronymization is quite pervasive cross-linguistically; this may suggest that not any word-formation process can easily spread; it needs to be prevalent and potentially universal.

Environmental issues are given prominence in the media and scientific circles. From the 60’s until early 2010 there were changes in the way people related to the environment, with a paradigm shift occurring regarding the environment. This study sought to identify the representational content disseminated by the press media on the environment in different periods. A qualitative survey was therefore conducted of documents, and data were obtained through texts published in a magazine with national circulation. The data were analyzed using the ALCESTE program with a Lexicographic Analysis. It was identified that the press media reflects the paradigm shifts, and publications dating from the late 60’s are compatible with the old paradigm, evolving over time, and are now compatible with the new environmental paradigm. The results indicate that currently the environment needs care in all its aspects and lack of care creates global impacts.
