A SARS-CoV-2 virus has spread around the globe since March 2020. Millions of people infected worldwide with coronavirus. People from every country expressed their sentiments about coronavirus on social media. The aim of this work is to determine the general public opinion of Indian Twitter users about coronavirus. The Hindi tweets posted about COVID-19 is used as input data for sentiment analysis. The natural language processing is applied on input data for feature extraction. Further, the optimal features are selected from the pre-processed data using the metaheuristic based Grey wolf optimization technique. Finally, a hybrid of convolution neural network(CNN) and a long short-term memory (LSTM) model pair is employed to categorize the sentiments as positive, negative, and neutral. The outcome of the proposed model is compared with other machine learning techniques, namely, Random Forest, Decision Tree, K-Nearest Neighbor, Naive Bayes, Support vector machine (SVM), CNN, LSTM, LSTM–CNN, and CNN–LSTM. The highest accuracy of 87.75%, 88.41%, 87.89%, 85.54%, 89.11%, 91.46%, 88.72%, 91.54%, and 92.34% is obtained by Random Forest, Decision Tree, K-Nearest Neighbor, Naive Bayes, SVM, CNN, LSTM, LSTM–CNN, and CNN–LSTM, respectively. The proposed ensemble hybrid model gives the highest 95.54%, 91.44%, 89.63%, and 90.87% classification accuracy, precision, recall, and F-score, respectively.

“…Members memorize and recite creeds, songs, jargon, cadences, and facts that help guide their military indoctrination and make sense of the new role (Shpeer & Howe, 2020). Although branches and units differ in the specific actions performed during training, they all center around the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) and focus on normalizing military norms (Howe & Bisel, 2020;Howe & Hinderaker, 2018). Hinderaker (2015) argued that exiting totalistic organizations is often an especially difficult and emotionally-jarring experience.…”

“…The military employs rigorous training and socialization to inculcate accepted and expected behaviors (i.e., norms); in doing so, it creates a distinct and strong culture for members (Howe & Hinderaker, 2018). Inculcated norms in military culture produce a shared system of meaning that is reinforced by group members (Shpeer & Howe, 2020) and which can result in difficulty during exit (Koenig et al, 2014).…”

“…Exploring the issue of veteran contempt of civilian communication is a suitable matter for organizational communication inquiry. Military members are socialized into a strong culture, with its own professional and organizational communication norms (Howe & Hinderaker, 2018). Those norms are inculcated by military leadership throughout the organizational chart as well as by group-level concertive control (Brooks & Grewal, 2022).…”

Veteran Contempt for Civilian Communication Scale: Development and Validation

This paper reports on the development and validation of a communication measure designed to assess how military veterans feel toward civilian communication. Specifically, we theorize that some veterans experience a mild negative moral emotion (i.e., contempt) toward civilians’ communication habits. The emotion is likely a consequence of intense professional socialization and membership in a totalistic organization. Veterans who served in the military since September 11, 2001 ( N = 215) responded to items, which were factor analyzed. Then, in a second study, the scale was validated using another sample of post-9/11 veterans ( N = 466). Together, these studies contribute an original communication measure that could help identify whether a veteran will have difficulty reintegrating into civilian work life. The scale could be useful in developing interventions to aid veterans in successful reintegration. Ultimately, the measure holds the potential to promote workplace diversity through the successful inclusion of more veterans in the workforce.

“…This reverse culture shock was not the only issue that caused a gap between me and these students, however (Howe, 2022;Howe & Shpeer, 2019). I quickly learned that our life experiences made us see the world in very different ways (Howe & Bisel, 2020;Howe & Hinderaker, 2018). I remember walking to class one day and seeing a young female student crying, the medic side of me kicked in and I went and asked her what was wrong: "My favorite contestant was voted off American Idol," she replied.…”

The journey to Iraq and beyond is not as straightforward as one might think. The author of this piece was an older recruit when he joined the military, as a surprising number of medics in his unit were. Moral Foundations Theory guides this article, as it is the learned beliefs the author has from a child that influenced many of the decisions he made, which are discussed herein. The goals of this article are to first supply a background that helps situate the author's lived experiences, second to share some of those lived experiences to provide greater context, and third to illustrate how the author's military service shaped his experiences in the academy as an undergraduate student, graduate student, and faculty member. The author hopes this article helps those unfamiliar with the military understand what their students and colleagues, especially those who have served since September 11, 2001, experience and gain a new perspective. The author also hopes this article helps other military veterans who may have had similar experiences realize that they are not alone.
