Print media plays a pivotal role in communicating public health information, acting as a vital channel for spreading awareness and encouraging healthy behaviors. This narrative review delves into the historical significance of print media in health communication while evaluating its relevance in today's digital media environment. Despite encountering significant hurdles like digital competition and financial limitations, print media remains indispensable for addressing crucial health issues and disseminating information during public health emergencies. Effectively utilizing print media for health promotion necessitates careful planning, thorough evaluation, and targeted distribution to ensure widespread impact and audience engagement. Employing a comprehensive search strategy, relevant literature was identified through electronic databases and manual searches of reference lists. The gathered literature underwent rigorous screening to align with the review's objectives, with key insights synthesized through iterative analysis. Print media remains a cornerstone of health communication, offering tangible avenues for information dissemination and audience interaction. However, its efficacy is subject to various factors, including technological advancements, evolving media landscapes, and challenges in content dissemination. Overcoming these obstacles requires innovative approaches and collaborative endeavors to harness the full potential of print media in advancing public health objectives.

The background to writing this article was the variety of linguistic phenomena in reduplication used in local print media. This phenomenon is evident in the diversity of types and categories of essential words/primary forms that form reduplication. This research aims to describe the types and categorization of words that form reduplication in local print media. There are three research methods and techniques used in this paper, namely: methods and techniques for providing data; methods and techniques for data analysis; and methods and techniques for presenting data analysis results. In providing data, the observation method is used with basic techniques, tapping techniques, advanced techniques, skillful free-involvement listening techniques, and note-taking techniques. The matching process and the addition method were used to analyze the data. An informal presentation method is used to present the results of data analysis. The population of this study consisted of reduplications used in two local print media, namely the Padang Ekspress and Singgalang newspapers. The research sample was reduplication in the Padang Ekspress and Singgalang newspapers published from January to August 2024. The findings in this research are based on the type of reduplication, there are four types of reduplication used in local print media, namely complete/whole reduplication, partial reduplication, reduplication with a combination of affixes/affixes, and phoneme-changing reduplication. Based on the categories of words that form reduplication, reduplication in local print media is formed by repeating ten categories of essential words/primary forms, namely repetition of basic words/basic forms in the categories of noun (KB), verb (KK), adjective (KS), word numbers (Kbil.), question words (KT), pronouns (KG), demonstrative words (KP), adverbs (adv.), unique morphemes (MU), and words of greeting (KSp).

Combining rich data from the Norwegian media market with exogenous variation in the availability and adoption of broadband internet, this paper provides causal evidence on how the internet affected traditional print media. Broadband internet adoption triggered large reductions in print readership and circulation and equally large increases in online news readership. Despite strong substitution from print to online news consumption, newspaper revenues fell dramatically. Newspapers responded to this adverse technology shock along multiple dimensions, including cutting costs by reducing labor inputs and the physical newspaper size and changing the print product available to customers by reducing tabloid content share.

A local court judge labelled the Slovenian Prime Minister a “great dictator” on her closed Facebook profile. One of her virtual friends captured a print-screen, propelling the posts into a national scandal. The Disciplinary Court acquitted the judge. The Ethical commission did not pass judgment on her, issuing only non-binding guidelines for public expression of judges on social networks. Nevertheless, the judge suffered significant sanctions. The President of the local court removed her from the leadership position, and she received serious threats and insults by private actors. The case note discusses the broader questions emerging from the case. In relation to which topics can judges express opinions of political nature? Can they expect privacy when they engage in closed social media communication? Which standards should the national authorities employ in assessing these issues? How judges perceive different sanctions and what measures can mitigate the chilling effect such sanctions can create? By analysing both formal and informal responses to the controversial Facebook posts and drawing upon the personal recollections of the affected judge, this case note aims to provide more clarity on the issues relevant way beyond Slovenia.

The use of natural materials is a creative and innovative process to increase the potential of the surrounding environment, such as the use of natural dyes. As rambutan skin has been rarely used and reported as a natural dye, this study explores its usage on leather. In this study, we applied rambutan skin as a natural dye to tanned leather from goat crust skin using the creative eco-printing method. We used an experimental method with a pre-experiment one-shot case study design. Each sample was dyed at different times using distinct solutions during the mordant process. The solution was made from rambutan skin and different solvents, such as alum (AI2(SO4)3), calcium oxide (Ca(OH)2), and ferrous sulfate (FeSO4). The results show that crust-tanned leather from goat skin can be successfully colored with natural dye from rambutan skin. The more amount of dyes used results in a darker color. In addition, the type of mordant used produces a different color. In the eco-printing process, the background color is influenced by the type of mordant used on the blanket, which serves as a cover for the eco-print process. Meanwhile, the leaves stop the mordant from penetrating the leather and become the source of the motive.

Penerapan pewarna alami dari kulit rambutan dalam kreasi eco printing pada kulit tersamak
Memanfaatkan bahan alam sebagai proses berkreasi adalah salah satu upaya dalam melakukan inovasi untuk meningkatkan potensi lingkungan sekitar, salah satunya melalui penggunaan pewarna alami. Pemanfaatan kulit rambutan sebagai pewarna alami masih terbatas pada media yang digunakan sehingga perlu adanya eksplorasi terhadap bahan lain seperti bahan kulit. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menerapkan kulit rambutan sebagai pewarna alami yang diterapkan pada bahan kulit kambing tersamak jenis crust dan penerapan pada proses berkreasi eco printing. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode eksperimen dengan bentuk pre-eksperimen jenis one-shot case study. Setiap sampel dicelup dengan jumlah pencelupan yang berbeda lalu dilakukan proses mordant dengan larutan yang berbeda yaitu tawas (AI2(SO4)3), kapur (Ca(OH)2), dan tunjung (FeSO4). Hasil menunjukkan bahwa kulit kambing tersamak jenis crust dapat diberi warna dengan larutan pewarna alami kulit rambutan. Semakin banyak jumlah pencelupan, maka warna yang dihasilkan semakin pekat dan jenis mordant yang digunakan menghasilkan warna yang berbeda. Dalam proses eco printing, warna pada latar dipengaruhi oleh jenis mordant yang digunakan pada blanket sebagai penutup proses ecoprint dan motif yang dihasilkan berasal dari daun yang merintangi zat mordant masuk ke dalam kulit.

Visually complex texts emerge as a response to complicated cosmological, social, or ontological phenomena in reality, and different pre-modern cultures came up with their own unique ways of re-presenting this reality in textual form. Today, with the help of digital media, it becomes possible to discuss visually complex texts from different cultures in a way that facilitates the exchange of research ideas between specialists working with different regions and languages.
Il fenomeno “piattaforme” unisce il “nuovo” all’“antico”, imponendo al giurista riflessioni riguardanti tanto il pianeta dei media tradizionali quanto le dirompenti innovazioni introdotte dal digitale e dall’impiego sempre più diffuso dell’A.I. generativa. Il contributo si propone di censire i problemi di tutela della libertà di parola posti dal nuovo modo interattivo di comunicare, indagando, in particolare, l’estensione dei poteri di content moderation accordati alle piattaforme. Quali ragionevoli limiti (contrattuali, autodisciplinari, da coregolazione) alla libertà di manifestazione del pensiero dell’utente? Quando la comunicazione “non cartacea” è equiparabile alla “stampa” ex art. 21 Cost.? E quali i possibili rimedi contro fake news e comunicazioni improprie, nel rispetto della libertà di espressione? Analoghe questioni sono affrontate, poi, anche con riferimento al fenomeno ChatGPT, in relazione al quale ci si domanda se e quando le comunicazioni robotiche possano essere ricondotte, sotto il profilo delle tutele ad esse accordabili, a “manifestazioni del pensiero”, ovvero a erogazioni di servizio informativo (ovvero a comunicazioni interpersonali ex art. 15 Cost.).
The phenomenon of “platforms” unites the “new” with the “old”, imposing on the jurist reflections concerning both the planet of traditional media and the disruptive innovations introduced by digital and the increasingly widespread use of generative A.I. The contribution proposes to survey the problems of protecting freedom of speech posed by the new interactive way of communicating, investigating, in particular, the extension of the powers of content moderation granted to platforms. What are reasonable limits (contractual, self-regulatory, co-regulatory) to the user's freedom of manifestation of thought? When can “non-print” communication be equated with the “press” under Article 21 of the Italian Constitution? And what are the possible remedies against fake news and improper communications, while respecting freedom of expression? Similar issues are also addressed, then, with reference to the ChatGPT phenomenon, in relation to which the question arises as to whether and when robotic communications can be traced, from the standpoint of the protections accorded to them, to “manifestations of thought” or to information service disbursements (or to interpersonal communications under Article 15 of the Italian Constitution).

The arrival of new media has generated tensions, arguments and debate about the prospects and future of the newspaper industry all over the world. In Northern Nigeria today, media technologies have led to many changes that are seen in the newspaper industry. For instance, technology has broken distance, making communication easier and the information around the world more accessible; it has shrunk both time and space. This situation has generated debates among scholars, about whether the new media technologies would eventually wipe out the conventional media or at least further redefine them. Within this context, this study aims to examine the Mediatization of the net and Internetization of the print media in Northern Nigeria. The study was anchored on the theoretical lens of Diffusion of Innovation Theory. The study adopted the traditional approach of the positivist research design, which informed the choice of survey method, whereby a self-administered questionnaire in the form of a 4-point Likert scale was used to generate data from the study population of 104 journalists working in the selected newspapers, purposive sampling was used to select the newspapers while simple random sampling was used to select the journalists and IBM® SPSS® Statistics was used to analyse the data. Based on the result, the study discovered that new media technologies posed some challenges like inadequate facilities, epileptic internet availability, and inadequate funds for personnel capacity building to the selected newspapers. The study concludes that the need for newspapers to embrace new technologies in content production and news processing is fundamental for the overall success of the print media in Northern Nigeria.

In the era of information technology, print media is on the verge of extinction. The Pikiran Rakyat Newspaper, one of the largest local newspapers in West Java, still survives. This study illustrates how print media can survive in the era of digital society. This research uses a sequential explanatory design method by combining quantitative and qualitative data. Quantitative data was collected using a survey to a sample of readers totaling 1540 respondents. The sample was determined using purposive sampling with unique qualifications for potential readers in West Java. Qualitative data using observation, interviews, and FGD. The quantitative results showed that respondents admitted they were still interested in consuming newspapers. Newspapers have advantages over online media; clickbait does not exist. The qualitative results indicate that print media can still survive, not as a source of income but as an icon of the company.
Passenger motor vehicle transport is a significant and growing emissions source contributing to climate change. Switching from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles (EV) would significantly reduce most countries’ emissions, but for many consumers perceived barriers deter EV adoption. Consequently, government policies designed to incentivise a transition to EVs could benefit from consideration of the utility of communication channels such as print media for influencing consumer behaviour. This research explores the role that media and other communication channels writing about EVs play in consumer perceptions and awareness of government-initiated programs and policies to incentivise EV market transition. Using mixed methods of a media review and New Zealand car buyer surveys (questionnaires, interviews) (n = 893), we identified car buyers’ media use to update knowledge about cars, perceptions about EVs, and likelihood to buy, and tested awareness and popularity of incentives. We derive recommendations for policy improvements to accelerate EV uptake, including a significant role for the print media to disseminate relevant information, increase awareness of policies, and shift perceptions about EVs. We argue that social marketing programs should be enhanced to overcome lack of knowledge and misinformation, focusing on the market segment next most likely to buy EVs.
This study explains how effective advertising marketing is in three print media in Mandailing Natal. Several print media such as the Waspada Daily, representatives of the Mandailing Natal bureau and Mohganews, stated that the impact of the Covid 19 outbreak on the effectiveness of advertisements in the print media mentioned above. On the other hand, the print media Madina Post revealed that the Covid 19 pandemic had little impact on the advertisements served through the advertising column in its print media. This study uses the principles of a qualitative approach, using the SOR theory as an acronym for Stimulus-Organism-Response which has an impact on the Covid 19 pandemic outbreak. Namely, humans whose souls include components; attitudes, opinions, behavior, cognition and conation.

Since 2012, the citizen science project 'Mückenatlas' has been supplementing the German mosquito monitoring programme with over 28,000 submissions of physical insect samples. As the factors triggering people to catch mosquitoes for science are still unknown, we analysed the influence of mass media reports on mosquito submission numbers. Based on a theoretical framework of how mass media affect citizen responsiveness, we identified five possible influencing factors related to citizen science: (i) project awareness and knowledge, (ii) attention (economy), (iii) individual characteristics of citizen scientists and targeted communication, (iv) spatial differences and varying affectedness, and (v) media landscape. Hypotheses based on these influencing factors were quantitatively and qualitatively tested with two datasets: clipping data of mass media reports (online, television, radio and print) referring to or focussing on the 'Mückenatlas', and corresponding data of 'Mückenatlas' submissions between 2014 and 2017. In general, the number of media reports positively affected the number of mosquito submissions on a temporal and spatial scale, i.e. many media reports provoke many mosquito submissions. We found that an already heightened public and media awareness of mosquito-relevant topics combined with a direct call-to-action in a media report title led to a maximum participation. Differences on federal state level, however, suggest that factors additional to quantitative media coverage trigger participation in the 'Mückenatlas', in particular the mosquito affectedness of the resident population. Lastly, media types appear to differ in their effects on the number of submissions. Our results show under which circumstances the media presence of the 'Mückenatlas' is most effective in activating people to submit mosquito samples, and thus provide advice for designing communication strategies for citizen science projects.
Background of the study: The library of SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Yogyakarta has a unique and distinctive collection that is referred to as local content and organized in Muhi Corner. Libraries have a duty to collect and disseminate them to users
Purpose: This study aims to analyze the local content information service of Muhi Corner, analyze the information dissemination process carried out, and evaluate the obstacles in the dissemination of information.
Method: This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation analysis. The data analysis was conducted by data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion.
Findings: The results showed that Information dissemination activities for Muhi Corner's collections started with information dissemination for teachers, education staff, students, and researchers; then packaged in the form of print and digital papers. Information sources are presented in the form of local collections and gray literature. The information channels used are direct (socialization & library tour) and social media (Instagram).
Conclusion: Dissemination of information on the Muhi Corner collection has been carried out but is still limited, either directly or using the media. Obstacles in disseminating Muhi Corner information include, (1) limited human resources, (2) limited collection on the subject of literature, and (3) limited promotional activities.

INTRODUCTION The media's influence on policy has been widely documented. This study sought to investigate how Melbourne's medically supervised injecting room (MSIR) was represented in the print media. METHODS A qualitative discourse analysis of Victorian print media (n = 441 items) representation of MSIR was conducted. Constructivist Grounded Theory guided the sampling strategy and coding while the discourse analysis was informed by Bacchi's approach to policy analysis, 'What's the problem represented to be?'. Print news media was gathered from Factiva and Newsbank databases from January 2016 to June 2020. RESULTS The media's representation of the 'drug problem' of overdose was identified by a range of actors in support and opposition of the facility. In attributing the concept of 'drug use' to the 'drug problem' items most frequently suggest it is the 'choice' of the individual to inject illicit drugs. The voices of people who inject drugs (PWID) were largely silenced in the print news media and to re-conceptualise the 'drug problem' to be a 'health problem' would aid in the support for the harm reduction strategy. The research highlighted 'dividing practices' (residents vs. PWID) and the portrayal of PWID that translate to the lived effects of PWID. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS The print news media did not directly influence the establishment of the Melbourne MSIR. However, the representation of PWID in the print media must be further investigated for the successful establishment of future harm reduction strategies.

The study presented in the paper aims to analyze the Russian print media market before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the prospects of local media transformation in the challenging environment. In the pre-pandemic decade, there was a growing body of literature on media convergence in emerging markets confirming that this concept is growing in importance as a strategic path of conventional media transformation. Still, the research on the Russian conventional media transformation is scarce, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic risks on Russian print media and their business models have not been investigated so far. To fill the gap, we combined desk research, processing of published industry statistics, and data obtained by means of expert interviews. The results confirm that in the first decades of the 21st century Russian print media paid less attention to the opportunities of media convergence than Western ones. At the same time, those Russian conventional media that set ambitious goals for their future considered the adoption of the media convergence approach as crucial, even before the pandemic. The findings show the lack of systemic measures to improve the overall situation on the national media market that faces difficult times, and the need to take into account pandemic risks in the print media management activities.
This study aims to analyze the challenges of print media journalism in the digital era. The development of online media has now become a threat to newspapers and print media. The rapid development of the internet has encouraged people to access online media easily through mobile phones, or gadgets. Print media are in danger of being threatened, and loyal readers of print media are likely to turn to online media. The results shows that the biggest challenge of journalists in the digital information era is synonymous with the competition between media mainstream and new media in this case online media. The party who felt a significant impact with the presence of online media was journalism which of course already had a new channel to spread information and news.

Advertisements are fashioned in diverse forms, but in most of them, language is absolutely essential. Although visual images, graphic and color designs and other techniques constitute aspects of print advertising, it is the language of the advertisement that enables consumers to identify a product and remember it. Indeed, language has a powerful influence on readers and their behavioral patterns. The English Language is employed in the print media in Ghana as a means of communicating information about goods and services with the goal of persuading the consuming public to take purchasing decisions. In the current article, I applied Aristotle’s Rhetorical Theory to the analysis of persuasive elements in the English used in advertisements in Ghanaian newspapers. The qualitative research design was employed in the study as the corpus was solely from written documents. The findings of the study demonstrated that copywriters in the Ghanaian print media employed Aristotle’s three artistic proofs, namely, logos, pathos and ethos in the English of advertisements for persuasive effect.
