[ecrea] 4th International SEARCH Conference 2015

THE FOURTH INTERNATIONAL SEARCH CONFERENCE 2015

28-29 May 2015

Taylor’s University, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia




CALL FOR PAPERS:

The 4th International SEARCH Conference offers an occasion for experts, 
academics and researchers alike to come together to consider pressing 
issues in an open forum; seeking to define questions, pursue answers, 
search for research synergies and more; to both reflect on the recent 
past, and look forward to the future; to exchange ideas and findings in 
a congenial atmosphere.



Our conference theme is ‘Managing Crises and Risks in Communication’; a 
title that speaks of a twofold aim of promoting good communication and 
handling crises and risks with care. We hope to foster sophisticated 
dialogue regarding communication issues that arise from handling crises 
as well as risks. This requires recognizing that communication is an 
important feature when it can be turned into one-dimensional headlines 
or promoting stereotypes.



We welcome contributions related to the main theme, but which could 
also, among others, focus on:

Language and Linguistics

Education

Advertising

Journalism

Public Relations and Marketing

Media Studies

Psychology and other disciplines dealing with the conference theme



Abstracts of proposed papers in the range of 200-300 words should be 
submitted by email to Dr. Nicole Yang at (LaiFong.Yang /at/ taylors.edu.my) by 
1 December 2014. The proposals should include the title, name, 
affiliation, email address and a short biographical note, about 60-80 
words in length. Notifications of acceptance will be sent by 15 January, 
2015.



After the conference, selected papers will be published in our SEARCH 
Journal (Scopus) (March 2016 edition) after a rigorous peer-review process.
