Download or read book Understanding Mexicans and Americans written by Rogelio Diaz-Guerrero and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Communication Lexicon is a new concept; it is a new source of information in the field of language and area studies. Its focus is on people's way of thinking, their frame of reference, their characteristic outlook on life. Compared to the more traditional area studies, our main focus is not on history or religion or geography, not on tangible material realities of existence in a particular country, but rather on people's shared subjective views of those real ities which are dominant in their minds. The focus of the analysis is essentially psychological; it is centered on perceptions and motivations which influence people's choices and behavior. Compared to individual psychology, the information repre sented by this volume is psycho-cultural in that it is centered on the shared perceptions and motivations which people with the same language, backgrounds, and experiences develop together into a shared cultural view or subjective representation of their universe. The attention psycho-cultural factors are receiving these days follows from the growing realization that their influences are powerful and yet they occur without people's awareness. Based on extensive empirical data produced through an analytic technique of indepth assessment, the Communication Lexicon presents the culturally characteristic system of meanings which members of a particular cultural community develop in construing their world. At the level of specifics the lexicon describes how selected themes such as family, society, work, and entertainment are perceived and understood by members of three cultures: Mexicans, Colombians, and U.S.

Download or read book Interpersonal Relations Among Hispanics in the United States written by Judith Matilda Lisansky and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a comprehensive review of the social science literature on interpersonal relations among Hispanics in the United States. The materials were content analyzed in terms of a series of dimensions of intercultural variation (Triandis, 1981) which have been found to be highly relevant to interpersonal relations. Topics covered include thought patterns, basic value orientations, aspects of identification and social differentiations. The literature indicates that there is little consensus on many of the dimensions explored and suggests numerous hypotheses for further research. Some authors argue for subcultural differences, others assert that major changes are occurring, and still others warn against attributing specific cultural attributes to Hispanics. Similiarities and differences among the various Hispanic groups were also examined, focusing primarily on Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans and Cubans. (Author).

Download or read book Non verbal Communication in Puerto Rico written by Carmen Judith Nine Curt and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Observations of the contrasts between Puerto Rican and Anglo nonverbal communication patterns, and their relevance in the classroom, are outlined and discussed. A general observation is that what is acceptable and permissible in one culture is usually not in the other, and teachers are urged to develop ways of making Anglo and Latin American children aware of these differences in patterns in order to promote understanding and facilitate commmunication, not to change the cultural identity of either group. An introductory chapter on the cultural identity is followed by two papers given at conventions of the Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages, including "Non-Verbal Communication in Puerto Rico" and "Non-Verbal Communication in the ESL Classroom, a Frill or a Must?" Additional chapters are devoted to discussion of specific nonverbal behaviors: smiling; staring and eye contact; silence vs. noise; clothes; money matters; laughter and play; frankness vs. reticence; and greetings, farewells, and interruptions. A case study of the linguistic and nonverbal characteristics of Puerto Rican children in a Brooklyn district in 1975 and a paper on Hispanic-Anglo conflicts in non-verbal communication are also included. A bibliography is provided. (MSE)

Download or read book Latina o Communication Studies written by Bernadette Marie Calafell and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book within the field of communication studies to map the terrain of Latina/o performance. Using rhetorical criticism and performance ethnography, the book examines performance from a variety of perspectives: from identity and community in everyday life, to how it intersects with popular culture. Discussions - from Ricky Martin to Chicana feminist pilgrimages to issues of diaspora - contribute to the book's argument that the relationship between rhetorical scholarship and emerging performance work has largely been ignored. Latina/o Communication Studies aims to challenge this split by creating a more complex and less Eurocentric understanding of rhetoric. This rich and informative book contributes to a more nuanced understanding of race and ethnicity and attests to the importance of Latina/o studies in the field of communication.
