The Effects of Public Diplomacy on Country Identity in Countries with Different Language Regions and Cultures : the Case of Switzerland

Ingenhoff, Diana ; Richner, Dominique

In: Studies in Communication Sciences, 2018, vol. 18, no. 2, p. 247-266

The aim of this study is to explore the existing differences in (regional) country identity between the two biggest language regions of Switzerland, and the effects that differently-framed public diplomacy messages have on these country identities. To analyze the heterogeneous dimensions of regional country identity in the two language regions and the effects of public diplomacy messages, an...

Phylogeny, taxonomy, and biogeography of Pterocarya (Juglandaceae)

Song, Yi-Gang ; Li, Ying ; Meng, Hong-Hu ; Fragnière, Yann ; Ge, Bin-Jie ; Sakio, Hitoshi ; Yousefzadeh, Hamed ; Bétrisey, Sébastien ; Kozlowski, Gregor

In: Plants, 2020, vol. 9, no. 11, p. 1524

Relict species play an important role in understanding the biogeography of intercontinental disjunctions. Pterocarya (a relict genus) is the valuable model taxon for studying the biogeography of East Asian versus southern European/West Asian disjunct patterns. This disjunction has not been as well studied as others (e.g., between Eastern Asia and North America). Several phylogenetic studies...

Online newspaper framing of non-communicable diseases : comparison of mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao

Chang, Angela ; Schulz, Peter J. ; Cheong, Angus Wenghin

In: International journal of environmental research and public health, 2020, vol. 17, no. 15, p. 15 p

As non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are now well recognized as the leading cause of mortality among adult populations worldwide, they are also increasingly the focus of media coverage. As such, the objective of this study is to describe the framing of NCDs in the coverage of newspapers, with the understanding that it says something about the society producing it. Automatic content analysis was ...

Supply and demand law under variable information

Yuan, Guanghui ; Han, Jingti ; Zhou, Lei ; Liang, Hejun ; Zhang, Yi-Cheng

In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2019, vol. 536, p. 121004

When the product quality is limited and the information capability is variable, we propose the enterprise enhances corporate profits by changing the relationship between market demand and external resources. We assume that the information capacity can be changed through the input of external resources. In this paper, we present a research agenda that empowers external resources to transform...

Revealing ‘plasmaron’ feature in DySb by optical spectroscopy study

Ban, W J ; Wu, D S ; Xu, Bing ; Luo, J L ; Xiao, Hong

In: Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2019, vol. 31, no. 40, p. 405701

We report magnetic susceptibility, resistivity and optical spectroscopy study on single crystal sample DySb. It exhibits extremely large magnetoresistance (XMR), and a magnetic phase transition from paramagnetic (PM) to antiferromagnetic (AFM) state at about 10 K. A 'screened' plasma edge at about 4000 cm−1 is revealed by optical measurement, which suggests that the material has a low...
