“…As a basis for evaluating effectiveness of campaigns in social ecologies, we employ methods of communicative analysis. Communicative analysis is a broad term that refers to the methodical analysis of human social interaction through records of communicative behaviour (Borysov & Vasylieva, 2022;Charaudeau, 2002;Cooren, 2004;Wallat & Piazza, 1997). Communication theorists often refer to two characteristics of communicative behavior: information flow from one person or group to another; and networking, or the creation of webs of influence among persons.…”

The focus of this article is the evaluation of the quality and the degree of community engagement in an expert-based, public-health communicative intervention for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). In 2023 the Canadian Alcohol Use Disorder Society collaborated with a grass-roots community health group, a regional health authority, and an academic participatory researcher to organize a working group to mount a social-marketing campaign to increase community support for AUD medical treatment in family-practice settings in a rural community in British Columbia. The partnership working group conducted a series of activities in the school system, the town council, and the community. This article covers the formative evaluation and the summative evaluation of the working group's effectiveness. The formative evaluation ("lessons learned" and "recommendations") consists of consensus evaluations of the quality of each activity using a variety of data sources. The formative evaluation followed improvement science methods and used consensus meetings to provide and reflect on formal and informal feedback. Formative results reflect the consensus of the participants in the working group and they record the reactions in the community. The summative evaluation measures evidence of community engagement found in transcribed text from meeting minutes. The summative evaluation used theory-based frameworks and text data visualization to assess the engagement dynamics of the working group. The summative evaluation helps to put the formative evaluation into perspective as communicative action. The summative evaluation validates the formative evaluation by revealing the communicative dynamics of engagement which resulted in the community’s increased capacity to understand and support Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment options. The working group and the entire intervention was seen by the participants and the public as a success and capable of replication. In a small community, it instilled new understandings and attitudes, bringing an emerging awareness of medication as an optional health mitigation strategy for Alcohol Use Disorder. Our study furthers this overall assessment by using theoretical constructs and analysis of communicative records to trace engagement characteristics of interest to researchers, societies, and community groups contemplating similar interventions in the future. The study also validates the effectiveness of communicative analysis as a measure of social-marketing for expert-based public health interventions.

The article focuses on analyzing personalized license plates issued for vehicles of individuals and legal entities. A made-to-order plate is an official identification of a car or motorcycle on the roads of Ukraine. The article argues that these license plates demonstrate the owner’s linguistic creativity and represent a unique form of communication within the Ukrainian society. While standard license plates provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine are impersonal and only serve to link a vehicle to its owner and a region of its registration, a personalized plate serves as a way for individuals to express their desire to engage in communication with the social world around them, conveying unique information about their linguistic identity. The message conveyed by the license plate demonstrates practicality and social norms. The need to interact with a broad spectrum of potential readers is determined by such social needs as survival, cooperation, support, respect, belonging to a particular community, creating a community, following trends, self-expression, self-affirmation, etc. The sign on the license plate may be motivated or unmotivated to its recipient. The form of the text is letters in either upper or lower case in Latin or Cyrillic, individual digits, or combinations of these. Structurally, the sign can be a word, abbreviation, formula, phrase, sentence, or letters combined with figures. The main features of the concept of "personalized license plate" are subjectivity, officialness, individuality, informativeness, symbolism, evaluation, emotionality, expressiveness, intentionality, and self-presentation. It is a complex cognitive structure of knowledge about an object of the material world, which is an integral part of any mechanical vehicle. The concept is formed where the concepts of "vehicle", "owner", "sign", and "state" overlap due to metonymic relations. The semantic classification of license plates was carried out on the basis of reference, such as the names of people, surnames, nicknames, company names, brands, platforms, cafes, restaurants, mythical creatures, natural phenomena, movies, substances, sounds of nature, etc. Besides, our view is that license plates in the form of letter and number combinations designed to evoke beauty in recipients encompass numerological knowledge that necessitates specific understanding and decoding techniques.
