Abstract:

In light of Gerardine DeSanctis’s death in 2005, this study draws inspiration from, and complements, Poole & DeSanctis’s (2004) investigation into the uses of structuration theory (ST) in information systems research by examining ST’s uses in communication research. Moreover, the study expands on the author’s previous analysis of research studies using ST mainly in journals affiliated with communication associations (n=22) by incorporating journals that merely have the term “communication” in the title (e.g., European Journal of Communication). An expanded corpus of 31 studies is examined for overall frequencies, chronological trends, and exemplars in aspects of ST research use (i.e., concept appropriations, domains, methods, outlets, and researchers).
