    Contemporary Environmental Imagery: An Analysis

    Get PDF
    Imagery is a widely used method of communication. It contains phenomenal power in its ability to connect to an audience and convey ideas. Contemporary environmental imagery has been widely utilized by environmental advocacy organizations and those involved in the modern environmental movement. These types of imagery are used as a call to action, for eco-tourism promotion, and in political campaigns, as can be seen in imagery distributed by New Zealand tourism companies and the South Carolina Conservation Voters. Historical images, particularly World War II propaganda and retro eco-tourism posters, have been reutilized to promote environmental messages. However, these images bring with them notions of late nineteenth century conservationist assumptions of class, race, and socioeconomic status that should be considered. Similar themes can be found throughout images promoting adventure tourism and extreme outdoor sports. In addition to these contested themes, modern environmental imagery also raises different ideas of nature and the environment. Because images communicate in ways much different than words, it is important to view these images with a slightly more critical eye, understanding the preconceptions that lie behind them, the sense of identification they attempt to generate, the calls to individual action they evoke, and the contexts in which they were created and are distributed

    The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between three subscales of the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adult Form (BRIEF-A) and the Big Five personality traits. The data used for this study consists of 126 hearing, college age participants from the Rochester Institute of Technology who were used as a control group for a previous study. As hypothesized, Emotional Regulation and Shift scales of the BRIEF shared a significant negative correlation with Neuroticism. Contrary to the hypothesis, the scale Inhibit shared a positive correlation with Agreeableness and Conscientiousness. Shift was significantly correlated with Openness to Experience. No relationship was found between Inhibit and Extraversion and Neuroticism, as was initially hypothesized (Jackson, 2005, and Wolfe and Kasmer, 1998)
