The 10th European Communication Conference (ECC) of the European Communication Research and Education Association (ECREA) took place in September 2024. Under the theme “Communication & social (dis)order”, researchers from European universities exchanged views on the (dys)functionality of current communication and its social implications. Our project team was also represented at the conference in Ljubljana with a presentation on “Expectations of Reciprocal Interaction: A Q-sort Study with Journalists and Audience Members”. The team presented the results of the two Q-sort surveys on the reciprocal expectations of journalists and audience members.
