ABSTRACT Using the lens of Communication Privacy Management (CPM) theory, this article examines communication between health care providers in the southern United States emergency department (ED) and patients who have experienced IPV. We qualitatively examine communicative challenges that COVID-19 protocols have created, as well as routine difficulties that occur when communicating with survivors of violence. The participants described challenges including: (1) Feeling uncertainty, (2) Encountering patient resistance, (3) Managing apathy and frustration, and (4) Navigating time pressure. Furthermore, the providers explained how COVID-19 compounded those challenges through: (1) Minimizing contact, (2) Losing nonverbal behavior, (3) Encountering limited resources, and (4) Facing visitor complications. This article extends CPM theory by exploring disclosure challenges related to IPV in health care settings during the COVID-19 pandemic including permeability, linkages, and privacy rules. It offers practical suggestions for increasing patient disclosure of IPV experiences.

ABSTRACT The importance of intervention in communication research has continued to expand in a variety of research traditions including applied communication, engaged scholarship, and communication activism. The growing importance of intervention requires closely examining our research practices regarding knowledge production and the role of nonacademic research partners. The present study articulates four intervention orientations based on an analysis of articles (n = 154) from 2010 to 2020, drawn from journals published by the U.S.-based Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication, International Communication Association, and National Communication Association. Four orientations are articulated using the dimensions of problem focus and intervention pathway: (1) translation, (2) critique, (3) design, and (4) co-creation. Implications regarding temporality and intervention, the significance of interdisciplinary research, and the sustainable social impact of interventions are highlighted.

ABSTRACT This study examines the experiences of incarcerated mothers who participate in a faith-based parenting program at a women’s prison in the United States. Thirty-three women participated in four focus groups. Using a grounded theory framework, four major themes emerged from the analysis, including building foundations, guilty mom, on the mend, and opening the lines of communication. Overall, the findings highlight numerous benefits of the program for incarcerated women’s relationships with their children, their ability to reframe the experience of motherhood, and their personal growth. A theoretical model for others who must parent ‘from a distance’ is proposed.

ABSTRACT This qualitative study examines 16 Muslim parents’ communication with their children after Donald Trump’s electoral victory and amidst increasing Islamophobic and anti-Muslim rhetoric in the United States. Our analysis highlights communication interactions, informed by participants’ perceived demonization of Muslims in media and political discourses, intended to counter negative stereotypes and cultivate strength, confidence, and belonging in their children. Drawing on cultural identity theory, we theorize pre-emptive avowals and ascriptions to describe participants’ communication labor to cultivate resistance in their children to Islamophobia and various forms of racism. We conclude by considering unique and intersectional communication labor in minoritized families and discussing directions for future research.

ABSTRACT The term ‘fake news’ aims to delegitimize news and is weaponized by political leaders and partisan media. Research has noted the negative impact of the phrase ‘fake news’ yet little work has investigated alternative discourse. We explore whether the phrase ‘fake news’ is distinct from alternative phrases such as ‘misinformation’ and ‘false news.’ Using two experiments, we compare effects of these phrases on evaluations of trust and credibility regarding U.S. news media. Results indicate that ‘fake news’ exerts disproportionate negative effects on perceptions of news and journalists, when controlling for political ideology, compared to ‘misinformation.’ Effects are pronounced when the phrase is used by a politician. Findings challenge research to address the communicative underpinnings of the fake news phenomenon rather than focus on “fake news” as a varietal of misinformation. Insights are discussed for news organizations seeking to distance themselves from the term while providing audiences with accurate information.

ABSTRACT The August 4, 2020, Beirut Port explosion killed over 200 people and left countless Lebanese injured and traumatized. To this date, the reasons behind the explosion remain unknown and the burden of this unjust act weighs heavily upon all Lebanese. Countless journalistic reports attest to the failure of official communication channels and the lack of meaningful action. None, however, delve into the role that interpersonal communication plays in instilling a sense of justice. This paper therefore investigates how interpersonal communication, specifically through people’s participation in communal communicative initiatives, may subvert the unjust official discourse and introduce a positive change in individual and communal lives. It posits that interpersonal communication may create a sense of justice not just between individuals in distinct interactions but at a societal level. It proposes basic tenants defining an interpersonally situated sense of justice and expands the significance of interpersonal communication in social justice studies providing it with a plausible structure.

ABSTRACT Contact tracing has emerged as one tool to communicate infection risks with the public during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study uses source credibility and the risk perception attitude framework to interpret how Americans responded to contact tracing messages from a technology company, employer, physician, or state government. Survey participants (n = 245) were generally positive towards a contact tracing message regardless of source. Participants with high risk perceptions and low efficacy beliefs responded more strongly to appeals from their company and their physician while the low risk-low efficacy group found the state government appeal more compelling. The results suggest that several sources delivering the same health message could engage people with different risk perceptions and efficacy beliefs.

ABSTRACT Online disclosure of one’s own experience and the harasser’s name is a prominent way of telling #MeToo stories in China. Drawing on the theoretical perspective of community of practice (CoP), this article conducts a narrative analysis of these disclosures to explore how they are employed to form communities of practice that serve to resist sexual harassment, thereby contributing to digital feminism in China. The study finds that they shape a common identity as victims and sustain affective solidarity through sharing traumatic experiences and reflective discourses to build the community. Their discursive practice of exposing harassers, including tagging variant hashtags, archiving contents for continued proliferation, and inviting netizens to re-post information, serves to break the silence and challenge the social environment that connives at sexual harassment, constituting a forceful digital feminist movement. By incorporating the theoretical insights of CoPs with the #MeToo movement, the article expands the study of digital feminism.
