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.

ABSTRACT Adult communicative play is a pervasive interpersonal phenomenon that manifests in myriad forms and serves a variety of intra- and interpersonal functions. Here, a conceptual definition of adult communicative play is presented, and a theory specifying the conditions and processes that give rise to such occasions is developed. Central to this effort is the conception of “quintessential play” as “ideal code-based (verbal and nonverbal) instances of interpersonal engagement, understanding, and coordination, marked by a sense of novelty and enjoyment, that are understood to count as ‘play’ by the participants themselves.” Experiences of truly quintessential play may be infrequent, but they represent the endpoint of a continuum along which all occasions of play can be seen to fall. The theoretical framework advanced here, then, addresses the role of person factors (e.g., personality traits), relationship factors (e.g., affection, power), dyadic factors (e.g., similarity), contextual factors (e.g., social rules and norms), and properties of interactions themselves, in fostering occasions of quintessential play, and that, by extension, sheds light on instances of failed play (e.g., mean-spirited teasing, bullying).
