- A Qualitative Study on University Students' Perceptions Regarding Sexual Violence Perpetrated by Women Against MenPublication . Oliveira, Leonor de; Carmo, Eunice; Cardoso, Daniel; Brazão, Nélio; Viegas, Mária; Vespasiano, Rita; Carvalho, Joana; Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Springer New YorkIntroduction Sexual violence (SV) perpetrated by women against men is socially dismissed and underrepresented in research. The aim of the current study was to explore the perspectives of university students (women and men) on women-perpetrated SV against men. Methods A total of 19 undergraduate students were presented with a vignette describing a hypothetical situation of SV and interviewed. Results A thematic analysis was performed, identifying four main themes: characters’ Features, sexual initiation Strategies, Consequences, and Motivations and Contexts. Participants endorsed gender stereotypes and victim-blaming narratives, but also challenged gender stereotypes and rape myths. Participants could identify violent sexual initiation strategies, could anticipate potential consequences of the abuse, and were able to imagine potential motivational and contextual factors that facilitated the abuse. Conclusions These results highlight the importance of providing adequate information regarding women-perpetrated SV and can inform preventative approaches targeting social norms that perpetuate the invisibility of this phenomenon. Recommendations for future research are discussed. Policy Implications Public policies that facilitate the training of professionals who contact with victims may help overcome the influence of rape myths that hinder appropriate intervention. Similarly, policies that support the prevention of SV in university contexts may contribute to translate the results from research into practice.
- Tools to communicate sciencePublication . Ferreira, Miguel; Granado, António; Silva-Lopes, Betina; Loureiro, João; Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA); International School for Advance StudiesVideo abstracts, filmed versions of scientific written abstracts, are an exciting trend in the world of online science videos, but, to date, the classification, conception and reception of these videos still need to be explored. This study aims to identify the most and least valued features, exploring future guidelines for producing an effective video abstract. For this purpose, 30 science video experts watched 21 video abstracts and filled out a questionnaire. Content analysis showed that video abstracts in Ecology and Environmental Sciences should be short, clear, objective, creative, dynamic and informative, mixing impactful live images with animation.

- Empatía digital en la educación en líneaPublication . Duarte, Alexandre; Moraru, Madalina; Surugiu, Romina; Marinescu, Valentina; Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA); Grupo ComunicarThis study aims to present the extent to which online education influenced the level of empathy displayed by university students. The research relies on a self-evaluated applied survey in two European countries: Portugal and Romania. The participants in this research are 1,085 students enrolled in Communication Studies programs. The purpose of this study is to unfold the connection between gender, exposure to digital technology, empathy level according to the Basic Empathy Scale applied to young adults, and online education self-perception that involves the use of webcams. Empathy can have positive effects on students’ satisfaction and increase students’ outcomes. The shift from a physical environment to a digital one brought significant challenges that most students and teachers were not ready for. The digital environment influences how empathy is expressed. The present research found evidence of a relationship between exposure to technology usage, emotional contagion, and gender. This suggests that understanding the emotions of others might be inhibited during digital education. Also, the most relevant factor of empathy variation in online education is gender. The findings of the present research may contribute to the design of activities or programs that could foster empathy expression during online education for young adults. Este estudio pretende presentar la medida en que la educación en línea influyó en el nivel de empatía de los estudiantes universitarios. Basada en una encuesta aplicada y autoevaluada en Portugal y Rumanía, participaron 1.085 estudiantes matriculados en programas de Ciencias de la Comunicación. El propósito de este estudio es desvelar la conexión entre el género, la exposición a la tecnología digital, el nivel de empatía según la escala BES aplicada a adultos jóvenes y la autopercepción de la educación en línea que implica el uso de cámaras web. La empatía tiene efectos positivos en la satisfacción de los estudiantes y aumenta sus resultados educativos. El cambio del entorno físico al digital trajo importantes desafíos para los que la mayoría de los estudiantes y profesores no estaban preparados. El entorno digital influye en cómo se expresa la empatía. Se han encontrado evidencias de una relación entre el uso de la tecnología, el contagio emocional y el género. Esto sugiere que el factor más relevante de variación de la empatía en la educación en línea es el género y que la comprensión de las emociones de los demás puede inhibirse durante la educación digital. Los hallazgos de la presente investigación pueden contribuir al diseño de actividades o programas que fomenten la expresión de empatía durante la educación en línea para adultos jóvenes.
- Video abstract production guidePublication . Ferreira, Miguel; Silva-Lopes, Betina; Granado, António; Siopa, Catarina; Gaspar, Hugo; Castro, Helena; Castro, Sílvia; Loureiro, João; Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA); FrontiersVideo abstracts are audio-visual representations of a scientific abstract that a researcher can use to complement an article. As a science communication tool, they stand as a novel and exciting way to present scientific discoveries, explore new formats, and reach new audiences. In this practice insight, we share the experience of creating a video abstract in Ecology, explaining and exemplifying the different stages of the process: selecting the paper, writing the script, producing the video, editing the video and promoting the film. Sharing the setbacks and wins of a video collaboration between researchers and science communicators, we hope to be a valuable contribution to all the people starting and already working in the field.
- La mujer en la publicidad televisiva durante la pandemia COVID-19 en España y PortugalPublication . Rincón, Antonio Raúl Fernández; Ortuño, Pedro Antonio Hellín; Ferreira, Ivone; Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA); Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Superior School of Advertising and MarketingEste artículo estudia el papel de las mujeres en los anuncios te-levisivos durante los dos primeros años de pandemia por COVID-19 en España y Portugal. A través de un diseño metodológico mixto y de inspiración semióti-ca elaboramos una ficha de análisis que incorpora variables relacionadas con cuestiones de género, estereotipos femeninos y representatividad de la mujer en publicidad. Analizamos una muestra de anuncios televisivos emitidos en televi-sión y en horario de prime time de ambos países. Se pudo constatar qué si bien las mujeres han emergido con cierto protagonismo, se las retrata frecuentemente como cuidadoras, madres y amas de casa. En este sentido, reflexionamos sobre el papel de la publicidad como vehículo determinante para mitigar las diferencias y, en consecuencia, para una posible deconstrucción de los estereotipos de género. This article studies the role of women in television advertisements during the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain and Portugal. Through a mixed methodological design and semiotically inspired, we elaborated an analysis sheet that incorporates variables related to gender issues, female stereotypes and representativeness of women in advertising. We analyze a sample of television advertisements broadcast on television and during prime time in both countries. It was found that although women have emerged with a certain prominence, they are frequently portrayed as caregivers, mothers and housewives. In this sense, we reflect on the role of advertising as a determining vehicle to mitigate differences and, consequently, for a possible deconstruction of gender stereotypes.
- Los periodistas como objetivo de los discursos de odio de la derecha radical ibérica en TwitterPublication . Antón, Rubén Ramos; Baptista, Carla; Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA); Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Universidad de SevillaEste artículo investiga la narrativa de odio contra medios de comunicación y periodistas en Twitter por parte de los partidos populistas en España (Vox) y en Portugal (Chega) y sus líderes (Santiago Abascal y André Ventura). A través del estudio de los tuits publicados en sus perfiles, se demuestra que los periodistas se han convertido en objetivo de la derecha radical ibérica, especialmente patentes en el caso de Vox. This article investigates how the populist parties Vox (Spain) and Chega (Portugal), and their leaders, Santiago Abascal and André Ventura, construct the hate narrative against the media and journalists on Twitter. The study of the tweets published in their profiles reveals that journalists have become a target of the Iberian extreme right, especially evident in the case of Vox.
- Storytelling as Media Literacy and Intercultural Dialogue in Post‐Colonial SocietiesPublication . Cruz, Maria Teresa; Miranda, Madalena; Instituto de Comunicação da NOVA (ICNOVA); Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Cogitatio PressThis article reflects upon digital storytelling and collaborative media practices as valuable tools for reassessing memory, questioning identity discourses, and unveiling the cultural diversity of contemporary societies. The digital age allows for a constant re‐reading and re‐mediation of cultural archives by ordinary citizens, namely by younger generations, and for the production and dissemination of alternative narratives about the present. These are crucial opportunities for post‐colonial societies to overcome silences around difficult memories that hinder a collective reappropriation of the past, confront some of the current issues on ethnical diversity, and discrimination and reimagine a more inclusive identity. However, taking advantage of this opportunity implies fully recognizing the role of media technology in shaping memory, social individuation and establishing networks, making media literacy and media education crucial aspects of cultural dialogue. Based on the experience of a citizenship project about the post‐colonial condition and Afro‐European interculturality, this essay reflects on digital storytelling, and co‐creative practices as relevant literacy and education strategies for furthering interculturality in contemporary societies.

- Online forums, audience participation and modes of political discussion:Publication . Torres da Silva, Marisa; Departamento de Ciências da Comunicação (DCC); Universidad de NavarraThe Internet has created new "dialogical spaces"1 where issues of common concern can be discussed, serving to democratize the public sphere. However, some scholars express doubts about the quality of the debates that occur in the online environment, pointing out the fragmentation, the incivility or even the anonymity as major problems that may undermine the expansion of the online public sphere. As a potential deliberative section and a civic forum, readers' comments in newspapers' websites constitute a locus for public debate and ideas exchange provided by the mainstream media. As a case study, this article intends to assess the quality of audience participation in online news sites, by analysing the readers' comments in the news about the Brazilian presidential campaign (September- November 2010) in the online versions of two Portuguese newspapers.
