Becker has taught courses in interpersonal, relational, and family communication as well as capstone, human communication theory, research methods, and college-level instruction courses. Caroline Parsons recently published the edited volume Honors Communication: Contextual Issues and Lessons Learned in Teaching, Advising, and Mentoring the Undergraduate Honors Student in Communication (Peter Lang, ISBN 978-1-4331-7549-7). Becker’s more recent scholarship applies an interpersonal perspective to communication pedagogy with attention to student and community engagement, online teaching and learning, and honors education. Becker’s work has appeared in academic outlets such as the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, Communication Monographs, Journal of Applied Communication, Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication, Communication Studies, and Communication Quarterly. Depending on her research goals, she has used quantitative and qualitative methods to study varied forms of interpersonal communication in relational and applied contexts. Becker (PhD Oklahoma, 2005) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Communication at the University of Texas at San Antonio. We recommend that future research correct ethnocentric tendencies by studying underrepresented regions such as the African continent, Latin America and the Caribbean, attend more to studies addressing adaptation to climate change impacts and embrace methodologies that address the localized nature of climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts.Jennifer A. Our findings illustrate that the majority of surveyed research focuses on public knowledge of and public belief in climate change, draws data from the Global North and tends toward quantitative methodological approaches, although a diversity of methodological approaches are represented. Using 160 peer-reviewed journal articles as evidence, we assess the field’s climate change research to-date and draw recommendations for future directions for research.
This study is an examination of climate change communication research in which we examine topical, geographical and methodological trends.
