title: Images and Sequences: A Demonstration Project on the Use of Photography as a Tool for Academic Motivation in Logan Junior High School
Creators: name: Hilden, H. Gordon
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1982

description: This is a report of an after-school, non-credit, photo-enrichment course that was developed and offered to students at the Logan Junior High School during the period March 30 through May 6, 1981.
The artistic intent of this course was to teach students how to see with a camera, recording images on transparency film, and later arranging transparencies into idea-development or story-telling sequences.
The educational intent was to see if such a course would motivate students to perform better in other classes and improve their school relationships in general.
The course was of too short a duration to develop any hard facts to support an affirmative answer to the question of educational (behavioral) intent. This is not to say that the course did not motivate such changes, or that the opposite was proven. There was no evidence of improved, static or degraded behavioral states.
There was, however, evidence that teacher/ administrator/ counselor biases had something to do with a student's perceived performance. Moreover, there was a degree of unanimity in this respect.
Because of the search for motivational factors, I re-discovered Seymour Halleck's construct of "stylism," and found it to be applicable to the student population of the project to a large degree. Again, and because this was not a sought-for answer, but a matter of serendipity, I developed no materials to justify the extent, much less the existence of such an observation. And so it is just that: an observation, and probably the most significant finding of the study.
Because of the significance of "stylism," I have developed the literature search to explain it, and the report of the project to demonstrate this construct in action.
It may be that by coming to terms with this construct, educators can develop a protocol for teaching students previously considered to be an educational enigma. Suggestions to this end are offered in the conclusions.
Performing memory : American poets theater and the poetics of the archive, 1945-1995
Creators: name: Dodd, Rebecca Jane
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: This dissertation uses the methodological tools of archival research to interrogate the relationship between performance, community, and memory in an extended study of American poets theater, a quasi-genre or aesthetic tendency that aligns poetic practices with the conventions of theatre and site-specific performance. At the same time, archival theory provides a theoretical framework for thinking through poets theater’s coterie function. I trace a poetics of the archive across American poetry after 1945 to argue that poets theater creates an accessible record of past communities and community events. In keeping with this community-focused approach, each chapter of this dissertation addresses the origins of American poets theater in the social and aesthetic contexts from which it develops, including the New York School and second-generation New York School of poets, the San Francisco Renaissance, and the New Narrative Movement. Each community, I argue, contributes to the development of poets theater as we recognize it today. Building on these situated contexts, this dissertation also draws on the work of Rebecca Schneider to suggest that poets theater should be read as both a form of re-enactment and an archival-theatrical event. I argue that poets theater operates as a trans-historical tool of the coterie that, through the process of re-enactment, works to capture, recreate, create anew, or signal affective connections across spaces and times. This allows poets theater to extend the parameters of coterie to include both the original event and the re-performance of it, eliciting community membership to both audience members and performers alike across times and performances.
title: Adjusting to Academic and Social Life at Utah State University: A Series of Video Program Scripts for Chinese Students from Taiwan, the Republic of China
Creators: name: Chiang, Lu
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1984

description: The purpose of this study is to identify the major problems and solutions for Chinese students in their adjustment to academic and social life at Utah State University. The author intended to give Chinese students an orientation through a series of five video scripts which could be later produced into a series of five video programs.
The adjustment problems of Chinese students were determined by reviewing related literature and by surveying 50 Chinese students at Utah State University. The solutions to those problems were determined by interviewing 10 professors and faculty members on the campus of Utah State University.
According to the major problems and solutions identified by reviewing related literature, by surveying Chinese students, and by interviewing information experts, the author ended up with five video scripts: (1) "New Soil--The Mormon Culture in Utah" introducing the Utah state and Mormon culture in Utah; (2) "It's a Small World" identifying the cultural differences between Americans and Chinese; (3) "Open Your Mouth" recommending Chinese students improve their English language proficiency in speaking as well as in listening comprehension; (4) "To Write" tells the audience of some techniques in English writing; (5) "Life in America" orienting Chinese students to their adjustment to social life at Utah State University.
Non-local exchange effects in zigzag edge magnetism of neutral graphene nanoribbons

description: We study the role of non-locality of exchange in a neutral zigzag graphene nanoribbon within the $π$-orbital unrestricted Hartree-Fock approximation. Within this theory we find that the magnetic features are further stabilized for both the intra-edge and inter-edge exchange compared to mean field theories of zigzag ribbon based on local exchange (like the Hubbard model or the ab-initio Local Density Approximation). The inter-edge exchange produces an enhancement of the band-gap of the magnetic ground-state solutions. The effect of this enhanced exchange on the edge states can not be satisfactorily achieved by a local interaction with renormalized parameters.

Fermiophobia in a Higgs Triplet Model

description: A Fermiophobic Higgs boson can arise in models with an extended Higgs sector, such as models with scalars in an isospin triplet representation. In a specific model with a scalar triplet and spontaneous violation of lepton number induced by a scalar singlet field, we show that fermiophobia is not a fine-tuned situation, unlike in Two Higgs Doublet Models. We study distinctive signals of fermiophobia which can be probed at the LHC. For the case of a small Higgs mass a characteristic signal would be a moderate B(H ->γγ) accompanied by a large B(H -> JJ) (where J is a Majoron), the latter being an invisible decay. For the case of a large Higgs mass there is the possibility of dominant H -> ZZ, WW and suppressed H -> JJ decay modes. In this situation, B(H -> ZZ) is larger than B(H -> WW), which differs from the SM prediction.

Abstract of the Publication

Sound Field Synthesis (SFS) aims at production of wave fronts within a large target region enveloped by a massive number of loudspeakers. Nowadays, these techniques are known as Wave Field Synthesis (WFS) as an implicit solution of the SFS problem and as explicit solutions, like Ambisonics in the spherical domain and Spectral Division Method in the cartesian domain. Research and development on Ambisonics and WFS proceeded since the 1970s and the late 1980s, being most lively in the last decade due to DSP power available. This resulted in many SFS systems at research institutes with different rendering methods, thus complicating comparability and reproducibility. In order to pool the outcomes of different SFS approaches the Matlab/Octave based Sound Field Synthesis Toolbox was initiated 2010 as an open source project by the authors. This toolbox was later accompanied by online theoretical documentation giving an overview on the SFS approaches and citing the reference literature. In 2013 porting of the SFS Toolbox to Python was initiated, serving as convenient framework together with Jupyter notebooks. In this contribution we discuss and demonstrate the concepts, workflows and capabilities of the SFS Toolbox and their documentation as fundamental component for open research on SFS.

description: The electrostatic potential and energy of point charges in a real crystal, in the presence of thermal vibrations, is obtained as a special case of the Fourier method. Incorporating the role of thermal vibrations in electrostatic energy calculations leads to the physical meaning of the Ewald sum method. The Ewald summation method determines the electrostatic potential and energy of point charges in a crystal at a temperature that is obtained from the width of the Gaussian and not at 0 K. For values of the width of the Gaussian commonly recommended for computational convenience temperatures exceed 10000 K.

description: In this paper we introduce the hyperbolic mean curvature flow and prove that the corresponding system of partial differential equations are strictly hyperbolic, and based on this, we show that this flow admits a unique short-time smooth solution and possesses the nonlinear stability defined on the Euclidean space with dimension larger than 4. We derive nonlinear wave equations satisfied by some geometric quantities related to the hyperbolic mean curvature flow. Moreover, we also discuss the relation between the equations for hyperbolic mean curvature flow and the equations for extremal surfaces in the Minkowski space-time.

title: Transfer to and Operation of The Cache Citizen by the Utah State University Department of Communication
Creators: name: Davis, William P.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1986

description: On January 21, 1985, the USU Department of Communication assumed the responsibility of providing editorial content for The Cache Citizen, a weekly newspaper published in Preston, Idaho. The department plans to continue operation of the paper, to provide professional experience for undergraduate and graduate students.
The thesis has a twofold purpose. First, it is an historical document, designed to preserve the details of the transfer and first year of operation by the department, for use by future journalism scholars and historians. Second, it analyzes the transfer, identifies problems encountered and steps taken to correct them, and makes recommendations for the future. This section should aid other institutions interested in developing a similar program.
The main portion of the thesis is divided into four sections: Literature Review, Methodology, Chronology and Analysis. The Literature Review is designed to familiarize readers with dominant issues in journalism education applicable to The Cache Citizen project. The Methodology section justifies the use of a combination of historical and journalistic methods in gathering and interpreting data for the study, and the Chronology section lists the basic sequence of events and identifies topics for analysis. The Analysis is be based on readings in the literature, documents, interviews with participants, the author's 13 years of professional experience in the field and one year as a Citizen editor.

description: We consider the Gribov-Zwanziger (GZ) theory with appropriate horizon term which exhibits the nilpotent BRST invariance. This infinitesimal BRST transformation has been generalized by allowing the parameter to be finite and field dependent (FFBRST). By constructing appropriate finite field dependent parameter we show that the generating functional of GZ theory with horizon term is related to that of Yang-Mills (YM) theory through FFBRST transformation.

On the ionization equilibrium of hot hydrogen plasma and thermodynamic-consistency of formulating finite internal partition functions
Creators: name: Zaghloul, Mofreh R.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The problem of formulating a thermodynamically-consistent finite internal partition function (IPF) in nonideal hydrogen plasma systems is investigated and analyzed within the chemical picture revealing inaccuracies and inconsistencies buried in widely used formulations in the literature. The analysis carried out here, though performed for the simplest case of pure nonideal hydrogen plasma, it shows all specific features of the problem and is extendable to the general case of a complex multi-component plasma mixture. A criterion for the separability of the configurational component of the free energy is presented and an accurate and consistent formulation of the problem is introduced. The presented criterion and the introduced consistent formulation of the problem clear ambiguities in other formulations in the literature and provide a better understanding of the problem. An illustrative example is worked out showing simplicity and effectiveness of the proposed consistent formulation and the importance of terms, essential for thermodynamic consistency, which are commonly neglected by other authors in the literature.

Observability of an induced electric dipole moment of the neutron from nonlinear QED

description: It has been shown recently that a neutron placed in an external quasistatic electric field develops an induced electric dipole moment $\mathbf{p}_{\mathrm{IND}}$ due to quantum fluctuations in the QED vacuum. A feasible experiment which could detect such an effect is proposed and described here. It is shown that the peculiar angular dependence of $\mathbf{p}_{\mathrm{IND}}$ on the orientation of the neutron spin leads to a characteristic asymmetry in polarized neutron scattering by heavy nuclei. This asymmetry can be of the order of $10^{-3}$ for neutrons with epithermal energies. For thermalized neutrons from a hot moderator one still expects experimentally accessible values of the order of $10^{-4}$. The contribution of the induced effect to the neutron scattering length is expected to be only one order of magnitude smaller than that due to the neutron polarizability from its quark substructure. The experimental observation of this scattering asymmetry would be the first ever signal of nonlinearity in electrodynamics due to quantum fluctuations in the QED vacuum.
title: Journalistic Codes of Ethics: A Proposed Standard for Juries in Libel Trials
Creators: name: Eldridge, Michael H.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1988

description: The standard of judgment for determining fault in tort law as applied to libel is ambiguous. Juries are allowed to rule against media defendants by using a standard that does not consider professional journalistic practice. I argue that the determination of professional fault is beyond the understanding of a lay jury due to the unique professional practice of journalists. Juries find it far easier to empathize with private party plaintiffs than with media defendants. I abstract criteria from standards of conduct for the journalism profession and determine what the reasonable journalist might do in general practice. In conclusion, I offer suggestions for the implementation of these criteria as a solution to the current legal dilemma.
Sloan Low-Mass Wide Pairs of Kinematically Equivalent Stars (SLoWPoKES): A Catalog of Very Wide, Low-mass Pairs

description: We present the Sloan Low-mass Wide Pairs of Kinematically Equivalent Stars (SLoWPoKES), a catalog of 1342 very-wide (projected separation >500 AU), low-mass (at least one mid-K--mid-M dwarf component) common proper motion pairs identified from astrometry, photometry, and proper motions in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. A Monte Carlo based Galactic model is constructed to assess the probability of chance alignment for each pair; only pairs with a probability of chance alignment = 0.05 are included in the catalog. The overall fidelity of the catalog is expected to be 98.35%. The selection algorithm is purposely exclusive to ensure that the resulting catalog is efficient for follow-up studies of low-mass pairs. The SLoWPoKES catalog is the largest sample of wide, low-mass pairs to date and is intended as an ongoing community resource for detailed study of bona fide systems. Here we summarize the general characteristics of the SLoWPoKES sample and present preliminary results describing the properties of wide, low-mass pairs. While the majority of the identified pairs are disk dwarfs, there are 70 halo subdwarf pairs and 21 white dwarf-disk dwarf pairs, as well as four triples. Most SLoWPoKES pairs violate the previously defined empirical limits for maximum angular separation or binding energies. However, they are well within the theoretical limits and should prove very useful in putting firm constraints on the maximum size of binary systems and on different formation scenarios. We find a lower limit to the wide binary frequency for the mid-K-mid-M spectral types that constitute our sample to be 1.1%. This frequency decreases as a function of Galactic height, indicating a time evolution of the wide binary frequency. [See text for full abstract.]

Creators: name: Jeppson, Melvin Leon
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: Social scientists widely believe that symbols can reveal important information about personalities, values, beliefs and characteristics of the communicator. Although scholars from fields such as semiology, psychology, sociology and anthropology have analyzed symbols and the messages they reveal as cultural indicators, few communication researchers have studied organizational symbols as organizational cultural indicators. In an article entitled, "Organizational Symbolism: A Topic to Expand Organizational Analysis," Dandridge, Mitroff and Joyce chastened communication researchers for overlooking a wealth of organizational data available through the study of organizational symbols. Stephen R. Barley supported these claims when he wrote that culture is embodied in and transmitted by "stories," "myths," and "symbols," and urged researchers to scrutinize these vehicles more closely when analyzing organizational culture.

A few days before the end of the 2008 extreme outburst of EX Lup : accretion shocks and a smothered stellar corona unveiled by XMM-Newton

description: In mid-January 2008, EX Lup, the prototype of the small class of eruptive variables called EXors, began an extreme outburst that lasted seven months. We observed EX Lup during about 21 h with XMM-Newton, simultaneously in X-rays and UV, on August 10-11, 2008 -- a few days before the end of its 2008 outburst -- when the optical flux of EX Lup remained about 4 times above its pre-outburst level. The observed spectrum of the low-level period is dominated below ~1.5 keV by emission from a relatively cool plasma (~4.7 MK) that is lightly absorbed (NH~3.6E20 cm^-2) and above ~1.5 keV by emission from a plasma that is ~ten times hotter and affected by a photoelectric absorption that is 75 times larger. During the X-ray flare, the emission measure and the intrinsic X-ray luminosity of this absorbed plasma component is five times higher than during the low-level period. The soft X-ray spectral component is most likely associated with accretion shocks, as opposed to jet activity, given the absence of forbidden emission lines of low-excitation species (e.g., [O I]) in optical spectra of EX Lup obtained during outburst. The hard X-ray spectral component, meanwhile, is most likely associated with a smothered stellar corona. The UV emission is reminiscent of accretion events, such as those already observed with the Optical/UV Monitor from other accreting pre-main sequence stars, and is evidently dominated by emission from accretion hot spots. The large photoelectric absorption of the active stellar corona is most likely due to high-density gas above the corona in accretion funnel flows (abridged).
title: The Reliance on the Four Major News Agencies for International News Reports in Taiwan
Creators: name: Li, Denise Hsiu-wen
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1990

description: The purpose of this case study is to figure out the reliance on the four major news agencies (AP, UPI, Reuters, and AFP) for international news reports in Taiwan, and CNA's, Taiwan's only regional news agency, role in supplying international news stories. Taiwan's three large circulation, general purpose newspapers -- United Daily News, China Times, and Central Daily News were selected and analyzed.
The study is based primarily on a content analysis of these three Chinese-language newspapers in terms of their coverage of international happenings and their news coverage.
The findings indicate that the control of international information by the four major news agencies is evident. And CNA does not play a large role in supplying international news. These results are corroborated by the opinions from the six international news editors and directors of international news translators.
The suggestion was made by the author that the CNA could become an objective, perhaps even a strong regional news agency, combined if government support was reduced and if the agency its resources with those of the three major newspapers in Taiwan.

description: The osprey, sometimes known as the "fish hawk" is one of Utah's rare and unique raptors. The osprey's diet is almost exclusively fish. Considering the osprey has evolved both physically and behaviorally to catch fish, their distribution is quite limited in a state as dry as Utah. Most ospreys only pass through Utah on their northern or southern migration but a few stop, build nests, hatch and raise their young.
Impariamo a essere gentili e a perdonare: migliorare il benessere relazionale in aula

description: Il seguente lavoro di tesi presenta come argomenti generali la gentilezza e il perdono, i quali rappresentano due dei 24 punti di forza del carattere. L’obiettivo era quello di capire se trattare questi temi con gli allievi della scuola dell’infanzia potesse influire in maniera positiva sul benessere relazionale in aula. Esistono infatti evidenze teoriche che legano questi punti di forza del carattere al miglioramento del benessere relazionale. A tal proposito si è condotto uno studio quasi sperimentale impostato dopo un’attenta osservazione della classe in questione, che ha ulteriormente provato quanto fosse importante lavorare trattando la gentilezza e il perdono viste alcune dinamiche verificatesi in aula. La ricerca è stata condotta presentando ai bambini una serie di interventi mirati al fine di favorire i gesti gentili oltre che il perdono. I risultati principali hanno dimostrato come il percorso pedagogicodidattico abbia influito positivamente sulle concezioni degli allievi e sulla messa in atto di comportamenti prosociali migliorando il benessere relazionale in aula. Con il percorso svolto gli allievi hanno saputo ragionare e mettere in atto delle azioni in linea con i valori trasmessi. I bambini inizialmente meno coinvolti hanno saputo assorbire la gentilezza che osservavano nei compagni, i quali mettevano in atto comportamenti prosociali carichi di gentilezza e bontà.

title: Photo Manipulation and its Effect on Future Credibility of Documentary Photojournalism
Creators: name: Lind, Douglas M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: With today's increased use of computers and computer technology in newspaper photo departments, digitally transmitted and managed images are quickly becoming standard practice. In one sense, this is a tremendous boon for the industry. On the other hand, the electronic age is potentially harmful to the documentary nature of photojournalism. Unlike advertising or fine art photography, documentary photojournalism is a record, a visual witness if you will, of actual events and happenings. People consider such photos as being a view of the facts.
With the new technology comes the ability to change those facts, to create a lie. Therein rests the problem. A manipulated photograph is no longer a view of reality, but rather a fabrication from someone's imagination. This is not journalism. This is fantasy.
This fantasy is nothing new. People have been manipulating photos since the invention of photography. What is new, however, is the ability to digitally alter photographic images easily and cleanly. Digitally altered photos are generally undetectable as having been manipulated, even to the trained eye.
Owing to an image-altered photo's potential for deception, any newspaper publishing such photos would stand in jeopardy of losing credibility with its readership.
Digital photo manipulation directly effects the credibility of both journalistic photographs as well as the written word. A level of trust needs to be present between the publication and its readers. Whenever readers feel a publication is not 100 percent honest in its visual presentation of the facts, they are left to wonder how factual the verbiage is as well.
The future credibility of documentary photojournalism is based on what members of the profession do (or do not do) with these new tools the computer age offer. To determine the existence and implementation status of standards on this subject, a survey was conducted of visual communication editors at various newspapers across the country.
From this research we conclude that editors feel the new technology is a potential problem and standards need to be set. Although nearly three-quarters of the newspapers have unwritten policies on photo manipulation, almost the same number feel they need written standards. The industry seems to be headed in the right direction to safeguard its credibility, but we need an ever watchful eye to make sure we do not stray from our goals of honesty and credible reportage.

description: Rhea (http://www.rhea-db.org) is an expert curated resource of biochemical reactions that uses the ChEBI (Chemical Entities of Biological Interest) ontology of small molecules to describe reaction participants, their chemical structures, and transformations. Rhea currently includes over 11,000 reactions (curated from a similar number of publications), covering reactions of the Enzyme Classification of the IUBMB and thousands more.
Rhea is now the reference vocabulary to annotate enzyme-catalysed reactions in UniProtKB (see accompanying poster “Enhanced enzyme annotation in UniProtKB using Rhea”). It also provides reaction data for many other resources such as the metabolomics repository MetaboLights, the Enzyme Portal, the SwissLipids knowledgebase for lipid biology (described in the poster “The SwissLipids knowledge resource for lipid biology”) and the metabolic modelling platform MetaNetX.
Here we describe some of our latest work in Rhea, including continued curation of the reaction dataset, work on improving the alignment of Rhea with the Gene Ontology (GO) and Reactome, and the development of an RDF representation of Rhea and a SPARQL endpoint to serve it (https://sparql.rhea-db.org/sparql). Together these developments will further enhance the utility of Rhea as a means to link biology and chemistry and knowledge resources in both domains.

description: A mix network by Wikstrom fails in correctness, provable privacy and soundness. Its claimed advantages in security and efficiency are compromised. The analysis in this paper illustrates that although the first two failures may be fixed by modifying the shuffling protocol, the last one is too serious to fix at a tolerable cost. Especially, an attack is proposed to show how easily soundness of the shuffling scheme can be compromised. Moreover, the most surprising discovery in this paper is that it is formally illustrated that in practice it is impossible to fix soundness of the shuffling scheme by Wikstrom.

Simultaneity in Minkowski spacetime: from uniqueness to arbitrariness

description: In 1977, Malament proved a certain uniqueness theorem about standard synchrony, also known as Poincaré-Einstein simultaneity, which has generated many commentaries over the years, some of them contradictory. We think that the situation called for some cleaning up. After reviewing and discussing some of the literature involved, we prove two results which, hopefully, will help clarifying this debate by filling the gap between the uniquess of Malament's theorem, which allows the observer to use very few tools, and the complete arbitrariness of a time coordinate in full-fledged Relativity theory. In the spirit of Malament's theorem, and in opposition to most of its commentators, we emphasize explicit definability of simultaneity relations, and give only constructive proofs. We also explore what happens when we reduce to "purely local" data with respect to an observer.

title: Multimedia in Communication Education: A Survey of Communication Educators
Creators: name: Hales, Michelle
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1996

description: This project was an attempt to determine if and how educators are adapting their curriculum to reflect changes in technology. The survey revealed that the respondents, for the most part, are incorporating multimedia technologies into their curriculum. Results also showed an interesting pattern to that integration. This pattern involved two concepts of multimedia: 1) multimedia as a new form of communication (HTML, CD-ROMs, etc.), and 2) multimedia as a tool to enhance traditional forms of communication (broadcast news, print journalism, etc.). It was found that educators considered multimedia applications to enhance traditional forms of communication (i.e. image creation software, desktop/non-linear editing applications) as most important.

description: We present results for realistic modeling of the x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) of the overdoped high-T_c superconductor La_2-xSr_xCuO_4 in the hole doping range x = 0.20-0.30. Our computations are based on a real-space Green's function approach in which strong-correlation effects are taken into account in terms of a doping-dependent self-energy. The predicted O K-edge XANES is found to be in good accord with the corresponding experimental results in this overdoped regime. We find that the low energy spectra are dominated by the contribution of O-atoms in the cuprate planes, with little contribution from apical O-atoms.
title: The Development of an Electronic Newspaper at the Deseret News and a Survey of its Users
Creators: name: Karras, Marilyn L.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1996

description: This thesis looks at the history of electronic newspaper delivery systems at several newspapers and provides an in-depth study of how one Utah daily newspaper, the Deseret News in Salt Lake City, developed its own electronic newspaper over a period of years and convinced its board of directors to support it. It outlines the process of defining goals, policies and processes for creating and managing the system. It contains results of a survey conducted of subscribers to the electronic edition, called Crossroads. The survey provides demographic profiles of Crossroads users, shows how often the electronic edition is used in their homes by users in various age groups and for what purposes. The survey results indicate which services of Crossroads are most and least popular among users and allows respondents to recommend changes and improvements in Crossroads. The concluding chapter provides a look ahead at what electronic information systems are currently emerging, particularly the World Wide Web. Indications are that the Web is replacing earlier electronic newspaper editions as a simpler way to receive information. The Deseret News plans to eliminate Crossroads and concentrate its efforts on its Web page. The newspaper has plans to charge a fee for some information it currently makes available on the page.

title: Evolution of a Free Press in Taiwan: A Case Study
Creators: name: Wang, Chi
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1996

description: In this case study, interviews with leaders of China Times and Central Daily, plus other mass media scholars and professionals, provide evidence that a free press in Taiwan evolved after a nearly four-decade old martial law was lifted in 1987. The interviews were based on the description of press philosophies by William A. Hachten (1981) to determine whether Taiwan's press has changed from developmental to Western. Secondly, based on early work of Schramm (1964) and Lerner (1958), economic prosperity and political pluralism were studied as keys to the government's relaxation of restrictions on the Taiwanese press. The finding of interviews in Taiwan support this point of view.
