ABSTRACT This article examines vintage arcade redemption tokens, circulating from approximately the mid-20th century through the early 2010s as a communicative local exchange medium. The tokens are described in composition, color, and marking as representative of a particular local establishment, where, in combination with tickets and receipts, they facilitated exchange of players’ money into often nominal prizes, generating profit for the amusement arcade owner. Such tokens represented symbolic and social interaction with specific arcades, who created their own privately issued redemption currency, not freely convertible to cash. Sensory experience, including sight, feel, and sound of the tokens, was part of gameplay and exchange experience. These ephemera reflected an atemporal relationship with a particular place, extended by five types of symbols (nautical, amusement, local branding, nationalist, and general gaming), and imagined windfalls. Metal redemption tokens have largely been replaced with digital redemption systems, including ticket-based systems, newer plastic chips, and prize cards; location-specific symbols have been replaced with images from popular copyrighted media properties. The article serves to document the use, experience, and eventual retirement of these tokens, particularly in New Jersey, and calls for their cataloging and preservation as cultural objects. Exonumia may be studied as communicative media through a media archeology approach, as newer redemption items reference copyrighted media properties.

ABSTRACT Among the tens of thousands of young Japanese Americans imprisoned in internment camps during World War II, teenager Stanley Hayami decided to chronicle his thoughts and experiences in a diary. Hayami’s diary provides both a fascinating glimpse into the everyday experiences of teenage internees and, as we argue, an opportunity to learn more about how the process of journaling can reveal the profound and complex challenges involved in re-constructing an identity disrupted by a heightened recognition of one’s marked, racialized body and the phenomenological displacement of the self in time and space. Integrating theoretical work in narrative, diaries, and multi-modal identity, we illustrate how Hayami used his diary to observe and narrate his self-identity during internment.

ABSTRACT MotherScholars are women, mothers, and academics that intentionally blend these identities as an act of resistance to the academic institutions that often devalue and under support their respective maternal and professional roles. As MotherScholars, we experienced dramatic shifts during the onset and persistence of COVID-19 that precipitated in a re-imagining of MotherScholar coping. This collaborative autoethnographic study employs a modification of interactive interviewing to produce a verbal text of COVID-19 MotherScholar analyzed thematically. A discourse of MotherScholar coping and resiliency clustered in thematic stages: acknowledging a triggering event, triaging (adjusting the current situation), prioritizing (adjusting more as circumstances continue to change), misdiagnosing (using dark communication, such as guilt and questioning sense of self), and surviving (realization that life goes on).

ABSTRACT This project tests the ability of narrative and gameplay to persuade in a casual health game, through two experimental studies. Study 1 (N = 212) explores how independently manipulated narrative and gameplay factors can persuade people to have healthier attitudes and behavioral intentions; Study 2 (N = 353) also investigates how narrative and gameplay (difficulty) factors might improve attitudes and behavioral intentions toward an in-game brand. Both studies consider the role of flow, an immersive and inherently rewarding psychological state, as potential mediators between game factors and persuasive outcomes. In both studies, results show improvement in both attitudes and behavioral intentions toward health and the brand; however, the cause of those changes is not clear, as the manipulated narrative and gameplay factors do not influence the persuasive outcomes, and the mediating variable flow influences the persuasive outcomes inconsistently.

ABSTRACT Drawing upon historical archives and through the lens of the experiential media theoretical framework, this paper presents findings that reveal the confluence of factors from the Victorian Era (VE) that laid the foundation for contemporary virtual reality (VR). Prior research has identified the stereoscope as a key technology from the 19th century as a precursor to VR. But this investigation finds that the foundations of 21st-century VR lie much deeper and wider in VE technology, science, social movements, and the development of illusion.
