Research investigating effects of differences in the administration of listening tests on test scores gives conflicting results. This study was designed to measure relative effects of “effective” and “ineffective” speakers presenting the Brown‐Carlsen and STEP tests on listening test scores. Analyses of the test scores found statistically significant differences between subjects hearing “effective” and “ineffective” speaker presentations for both the Brown‐Carlsen and STEP tests. Since subjects hearing “effective” speakers scored higher on both tests, results suggest variables such as “effective” speaker presentations positively influence listening test score results. Future research validating dimensions of administering listening tests seems necessary.

This study provides a test of the constructs of the rating error paradigm. This paradigm provides a heuristic base for giving cohesiveness to studies in speech evaluation. The findings establish the validity of the conception of trait errors and demonstrate the negative impact of profanity in a public speech.

Sixty transcripts of editorials and responses to editorials broadcast over WGN Chicago were sampled for each of the years 1972–1980. Topics of the transcripts focussed upon local topics of controversy, regularly stimulating responses from the public and calling for action by government and by other institutions. The forum resulting from this practice has brought into the arena of public discussion contributions from business and professional groups as well as citizens groups which might not otherwise be able to reach significant parts of the Chicago public.

As part of the ritual of public execution in early modern England traitors were allowed to make a farewell address. This essay (1) looks at the genre of scaffold confessions, (2) examines forces that produced these confessions, and (3) traces the shift in emphasis of confessions from treason to martyrdom. Special attention is paid to confessions of Thomas Cromwell (1540) and Charles I (1649).

Certain rhetoric‐as‐epistemic theorists have held that consensus is the only criterion by which knowledge claims are assessed; their opponents have replied that consensus is not an epistemological criterion at all. Opponents of the epistemic view believe consensus is overruled by direct empirical observation. The present study proposes a compromise and argues that knowledge is a system of claims based on observation, experience, authority, and consensus. Hence a knowledge system is a socially coordinated, linguistically based network of propositions grounded in a reality external to discourse. Rhetoric therefore plays an inherent and significant, but not all‐encompassing, role in the formation of a knowledge system. The usefulness of this systemic model of knowledge is illustrated by applying it to the rhetorical analysis of Darwin's Origin of the Species.

This essay argues that Republican malfeasance during the Watergate episodes provided Jimmy Carter with an excellent opportunity to structure for himself a presidential image of “good moral character,” “intelligence” and “competency"—an ideographic cluster mirroring the nineteenth century's definition of “best men.” However, it is further argued that Carter's handling of this opportunity resulted in these ideographs being used against him during the 1980 Reagan‐Carter campaign.

Lexical diversity was found to be significantly higher when speakers were talking to strangers rather than friends and when speakers were seated further rather than closer to the listener. Results were interpreted as indicating verbal caution in adapting to context.
