Extractions: Research Paper - The Exclusive, Universal, and Multiple Experiences of ADC By James A. Houck, Ph.D Please dont think Im crazy, but is how most conversations typically begin around the subject of After Death Communication (ADC). Most of the research in this area has been done from a qualitative (e.g., structured interviews) approach, which is an excellent way for people to begin telling their stories and comparing similar experiences with other bereft people.

Extractions: Prosody: The study of the metrical structure of verse. More generally, prosody is the part of human communication that is not captured by the sequence of words. The research is important scientifically, as we have little hard knowledge about what information people communicate via prosody, and how it is done. The research also can shed light on basic questions like "How much of language is fixed by our anatomy, and how much is cultural?" and "How much of language is consciously accessible?" Greg Kochanski and Chilin Shih presented a tutorial on prosody and prosody modeling at Click here for recent papers.

During the retreat, participants focused on current on-line communities and examined how they evolved and are different from off-line communities. Sessions looked in detail at existing communities (Friendster, craigslist, for example) and, through discussion with their leaders and organizers, helped participants gain an understanding of the unique role of the on-line world. The final session focused on the role that USC Annenberg will play in moving from the retreat to establishing an international research and educational program in On-Line Communities in the Digital Age.
