Abstract: This study examines whether video streaming can reduce trait and state communication apprehension, as well as improve communication competence, in public speaking classes. Video streaming technology has been touted as the next generation of video feedback for public speaking students because it is not limited by time or space and allows Internet users to view video content without prior downloading. Seventy-two public speaking students in two treatment classes and two control classes taught by the same instructor participated in a quasi-experiment to test three hypotheses. Although students who had viewed their speeches online reacted positively to their video streaming experience, results revealed no significant differences in communication apprehension and competence between the treatment and control groups.

Abstract: Proposes two new econometric models for testing the principle of relative constancy (PRC).

Suggests that alternative mass media expenditure models should be developed because PRC lacks of economic foundation and sound empirical evidence. (TB)

7. Applying the French Minitel Model to U.S. Consumer Videotex: The Case of the Electronic Directory Service. (ED309469)

Descriptors: Computers; Delivery Systems; Directories; Electronic Equipment; Foreign Countries; Information Networks; Information Technology; Occupational Surveys; Online Systems; Telecommunications; Videotex
Abstract: In view of the recent deregulatory developments in the United States' telecommunications industry, it is useful to reassess the issue of consumer videotex, especially as it relates to the implementation of electronic directory services. The success of the French videotex network Minitel relies on 10 principles: (1) cost of terminals; (2) no-frills terminals; (3) understanding the needs and wants of videotex users; (4) proper timing of introduction; (5) centralized authority to manage the videotex system; (6) organizing competition in a favorable regulatory environment; (7) long-range goals orientation; (8) consolidated billing policy; (9) single-standard system; and (10) individualized mass medium. To examine how major U.S. telecommunications companies perceive the establishment of an electronic directory service, a mail survey was sent to 12 executives in charge of planning and development in seven Regional Bell Operating Companies and five independent telephone companies. Ten returned completed questionnaires. Findings indicated that the Bell Companies are very likely to offer electronic white and yellow pages in the near future, while the independent companies seemed unlikely to do so; that telecommunications companies perceived it as unlikely that they will supply low-cost terminals for electronic white pages in the near future; and that the endorsement of a common standard is not likely. (Three tables of data are included and 101 references are attached.) (SR) Note:The following two links are not-applicable for text-based browsers or screen-reading software. Show Hide Full Abstract
