Dee's research published in "Communication Law Review"Dee's research published in "Communication Law Review";juliedee;2/24/2023 5:00:00 AM<p>​<strong><a href="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/juliedee">Juliet Dee</a></strong>, legal scholar and associate professor of communication, analyzed how courts have applied laws and a landmark U.S. Supreme Court case to the 2017 Unite the Right march in Charlottesville, Virginia, and the Jan. 6 insurrection and storming of the U.S. Capitol. To redress their grievances, plaintiffs have filed civil conspiracy lawsuits instead of invoking the 1968 Anti-Riot Act. Under the Brandenburg test for incitement, established by a 1969 U.S. Supreme Court case, it is difficult for plaintiffs to prove the defendants intended to incite violence. Regardless of the legal outcome, plaintiffs may hope to turn high-profile civil trials into public forums to increase attention and understanding about the cases.

The study drew on original data from two nationally representative surveys of the U.S. public in 2020, amid a series of controversies and protests about policing and racial justice. <strong><a href="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/prbrewer">Paul Brewer</a></strong>, professor of communication, and <strong><a href="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/jbinga" target="_blank">James Bingaman</a></strong>, a communication Ph.D. student, led the study with support from <strong><a href="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/wyattd" target="_blank">Wyatt Dawson</a></strong> and <strong><a href="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/paintsil" target="_blank">Ashley Paintsil</a></strong>, both Ph.D. students, and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidcwilsonphd/">David C.

Their findings, <a href="https://doi.org/10.1177/02704676221148103" target="_blank">published in the January 2023 edition of the <em>Bulletin of Science, Technology and Society</em></a>, demonstrated that overall television viewing and crime media viewing predicted support for multiple uses of FRT, while Fox News viewing predicted support for using FRT to monitor protests. The study has advanced the understanding of public opinion toward the technology and its implications for policing, protests and social justice.​<br></p>Uncropped VerticalGP0|#e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b;L0|#0e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b|Publications;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c2023.00000000000https://publish.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=288
UD joins team researching health discriminationUD joins team researching health discrimination;bleakley;jpcrow;2/17/2023 5:00:00 AM<p>In response to alarming statistics about health disparities in the LGBTQ+ community, a multi-institutional research team — including two University of Delaware researchers — tested the effectiveness of social support in decreasing stress among individuals who had experienced hate speech. The results showed that effective support decreased stress and increased general wellbeing over one month. <strong><a href="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/jpcrow" title="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/jpcrow">John P. Crowley</a></strong>, associate professor of communication, was the principal investigator for the team, which included <strong><a href="https://www.communication.udel.edu/people/bleakley">Amy Bleakley</a></strong>, professor of communication. The researchers recruited 50 individuals to participate in recorded 10-minute conversations about painful experiences with discrimination. They collected saliva samples from the participants before and after the conversations to measure physiological reactivity to stress. Participants completed surveys before and after the conversations, and again one month later, to evaluate general wellbeing. The study was published in the journal <em><a href="https://doi.org/10.1177/02704676221148103" target="_blank">Communication Monographs</a></em>.​​</p>Uncropped VerticalGP0|#e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b;L0|#0e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b|Publications;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c2023.00000000000https://publish.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=289
Bleakley authors new studyBleakley authors new study11/11/2022 5:00:00 AM<p>​<strong>Amy Bleakley</strong>, professor of communication, is the first author of a new study conducted by researchers from UD and the University of Pennsylvania in 2020 to identify and understand beliefs that may influence decisions to join an Alzheimer’s disease research registry. The results were published in the <em><a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35811525/">Journal of Alzheimer’s Research</a></em> in August 2022. The rate of Alzheimer’s disease is higher among African Americans and Hispanics than it is for white non-Hispanic adults. Despite the higher risk, underrepresented groups are less likely to enroll in Alzheimer’s research. The study was part of a larger project funded by the National Institute on Aging to increase diversity in recruitment registries that feed into Alzheimer’s prevention research. The team includes researchers from UD, Banner’s Alzheimer’s Institute, the University of Pennsylvania and the University of California at San Francisco. Findings indicated there were fewer racial and ethnic differences in beliefs about joining a registry than initially anticipated, and the results informed additional data collection efforts with the goal of designing effective recruitment messages.​​</p>Uncropped VerticalGP0|#e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b;L0|#0e59b718f-f2f3-4654-8986-5eea60d4f90b|Publications;GTSet|#0a3b6244-764a-4413-b2f1-4b4c15da868c2022.00000000000https://publish.cas.udel.edu/Lists/ForTheRecord/DispForm.aspx?ID=253
