  2. Smurfette - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smurfette

    Smurfette became the popular example of a trope that was soon baptized with her name by Katha Pollitt. Smurfette, like many female characters in TV and movies, is the only female in an otherwise all-male cast, thus this is called "The Smurfette Principle". Other such characters include Miss Piggy of the Muppets or Princess Leia in Star Wars ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    The Shannon–Weaver model was initially formulated in analogy to how telephone calls work but is intended as a general model of all forms of communication. In the case of a landline phone call, the person calling is the source and their telephone is the transmitter translating the message into an electric signal.

    That leads to the final problem of the original model -- assuming that all the media encode texts within the dominant ideology and thus suggesting that media is homogeneous in nature. [14] In order to address these problems, Ross [14] suggests two steps in modifying the original model. The first step is to distinguish between the graphical ...

    Python 2.2 was released in December 2001; [23] a major innovation was the unification of Python's types (types written in C) and classes (types written in Python) into one hierarchy. This single unification made Python's object model purely and consistently object oriented. [24] Also added were generators which were inspired by Icon. [25]

    But their model is intended as a general model that can be applied to any form of communication. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] For a regular face-to-face conversation, the person talking is the source, the mouth is the transmitter, the air is the channel transmitting the sound waves, the listener is the destination, and the ear is the receiver.

    Schramm's model of communication was published by Wilbur Schramm in 1954. It is one of the earliest interaction models of communication. [1] [2] [3] It was conceived as a response to and an improvement over earlier attempts in the form of linear transmission models, like the Shannon–Weaver model and Lasswell's model.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smurfette_principle

    The Smurfette principle is the practice in media, such as film and television, to include only one woman in an otherwise entirely male ensemble. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It establishes a male-dominated narrative, where the woman is the exception and exists only in reference to the men.

    The four-sides model (also known as communication square or four-ears model) is a communication model postulated in 1981 by German psychologist Friedemann Schulz von Thun. According to this model every message has four facets though not the same emphasis might be put on each.
