There are many professions in which the topic of media psychology is addressed. However, in contrast to the interest, these professions are not yet clearly defined, and there are no studies available on entry-level opportunities or job descriptions. Only rarely does the job title media psychologist exist. Nevertheless, our conversations with companies show that the subject is in high demand in many industries and business sectors. There is a wide range of occupational fields in which media psychology is relevant; in fact, whenever it is a matter of describing, explaining, and predicting the emotional, cognitive, and behavioral processes surrounding media use. Media psychology can make valuable contributions in these areas: marketing, media research, communication management, management consulting, user experience and content management, media education and science. The description of the occupational fields in this publication is based on typical tasks and assignments. After a definition of the respective occupational field, we describe what the individual occupational fields entail, which assignments or tasks are handled and, finally, in which companies and institutions they can be found.
Politische Kommunikation in der modernen Demokratie; eine Bestandsaufnahme
(2006) Pfetsch, Barbara; Mayerhöffer, Eva
Der Text hat das Ziel, Fragestellungen und Befunde über die Entwicklung der politischen Kommunikation von Regierungen, Parteien und Verbänden sowie von Sozialen Bewegungen vorzustellen und deren Implikationen für moderne Demokratien zu diskutieren. Ausgangspunkt ist die Notwendigkeit von Kommunikation in politischen Prozessen und ein Bedeutungszuwachs der politischen Öffentlichkeitsarbeit, die im Lichte der verschiedenen Demokratietheorien zu unterschiedlichen Bewertungen führen. In einem ersten Teil werden die Handlungskalküle verschiedener Akteure und deren Strategien und Techniken, sich öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit zu verschaffen, vorgestellt. Daran schließt sich die Diskussion verschiedener Thesen über die Modernisierung der Kommunikation und deren Rückwirkungen auf Politiker und ihr Handeln an. Im letzten Teil wird die Perspektive erweitert und es werden international vergleichende Ansätze und Befunde über die Primärkommunikation politischer Akteure diskutiert.
Zum Begriff der Transparenz : politikbezogene Vorstellungen, kognitive Bezüge und medial vermittelte Bilder
(2015) Zipfel, Theodor; Brettschneider, Frank
Transparency is a very frequently used term but it is also a volatile one. Frequently, the semantic content and conceptual imagination of the figurative meaning of the word in linguistic usage is kept relatively vague. This paper thus pursues the objective of contributing towards establishing the understanding of the term transparency. To this end, the linguistic and epistemological bases of analysing a term were first explained and the theoretical and methodical basis for the study was elaborated. Based on this, lexical information on the conveyed meaning of the word transparency was analysed. This analysis formed the basis for a qualitative analysis of the content of specialised texts from politics, where it was possible to demonstrate that the content of the term by its definition is far more complex than presented in dictionaries; that more than anything else, subject-related and object-related references of notions of the term need to be differentiated. In addition, the manifold dimensions of usage of the politics related term of transparency were defined and the functional meaning transparency adopts in the political system was presented. The results of the qualitative study subsequently served as a starting point for a quantitative analysis of newspaper articles. The result was that more than a few conveyed the concepts of specialist texts in the newspapers. Yet, that is precisely where there are restrictions to the presentation, where the contents of terms become more abstract.
