We will demonstrate the scientific rigor of PR and the importance of the ethical exercise of this profession as a basis to counteract the scourge of misinformation and the imperative need to design trust and credibility strategies that guarantee good practice in this profession.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> Maritza Mosquera de Sumich Copyright (c) 2025 Graphosmedia 2025-08-21 2025-08-21 2 1 20 35 10.48204/j.graphos.v2n1.a7381 Relevance of the journalist in the digital world https://revistas.up.ac.pa/index.php/graphosmedia/article/view/7390 <p>This paper contains the results of a scientific analysis based on the search for competencies of journalists in the twenty-first century to perform inside and outside the country, for this, research instruments were applied in 2021 to third- and fourth-year Journalism students at the University of Panama. To analyze the professional and personal skills of journalists in training in the face of the demands in the professional world. A focus group, structured interviews, comparison of syllabus, mock test, survey and questionnaire were applied. The students' deficiencies were: syntax, cultural baggage, analysis, proactivity, digital tools, motivation, lack of reading, interpretation and expression. 83.3% of third-year students stated that they reinforced knowledge apart from their career, and 16.7% did not. The University can improve in: digital tools, guidance, extracurricular activities, internships and infrastructures. Fourth-year subjects prefer the traditional field of work. Journalists do not have international participation due to a lack of investigations. The skills that journalists need to develop nationally and internationally are the same. Third-year subjects do not meet the required skills; In writing, reading comprehension and ethics were deficient. The admissions process is flawed in admitting applicants without knowing their aspirations. The lack of stimulation and oversaturated field make journalists unable to practice their profession.</p> Damgela de León Vivian Jiménez Copyright (c) 2025 Graphosmedia 2025-08-21 2025-08-21 2 1 36 48 10.48204/j.graphos.v2n1.a7390 the urban iconosphere https://revistas.up.ac.pa/index.php/graphosmedia/article/view/7391 <p>This article explores the urban iconosphere at the intersection of art, advertising, and visual perception, examining how images and visual messages intertwine and shape the contemporary visual landscape in urban environments. Based on Román Gubern's conceptualization, it analyzes how the boundaries between art and advertising blur, allowing aesthetic and commercial elements to converge and create new visual meanings. Additionally, it emphasizes the active role of the spectator, highlighting how they co-construct visual meanings based on their cultural context and personal experiences, drawing from theories such as those proposed by John Berger. This approach not only enriches the academic understanding of contemporary visual culture but also provides relevant perspectives for advertising practice and theoretical studies in visual communication, contributing to the discourse on the evolution and impact of images in modern society.</p> Bladimir Enrique Cedeño Vega Copyright (c) 2025 Graphosmedia 2025-08-21 2025-08-21 2 1 49 57 10.48204/j.graphos.v2n1.a7391 Influence of general systems theory on the perception of the business-society relationship https://revistas.up.ac.pa/index.php/graphosmedia/article/view/7392 <p>This article determines the influence of General Systems Theory on the perception of the business-society relationship, in order to expand knowledge about the real influence of corporate social responsibility on the strategic management of organizations, demonstrating how the practices of one side influence the other. The methodology is based on documentary techniques, analyzing 41 secondary sources; the qualitative strategy for selecting and evaluating information included consulting academic databases and thematic categorization of sources. The results show that General Systems Theory redefined organizational understanding by conceiving of companies as open systems in constant interaction with their environment, establishing the basis for integrating corporate social responsibility into management. Considering organizational complexity, GST continues to provide grounds for legitimizing the need for companies to maintain harmonious and symbiotic relationships with society. The discussion demonstrated that the system’s perspective transforms this relationship by highlighting its interdependence, where business success and social well-being feed off each other in a cycle of mutual adaptation. This perspective promotes corporate responsibility, transparency in governance, and the creation of shared value through strategic alliances. Accordingly, it is concluded that General Systems Theory offers an important framework for understanding the complex and interdependent relationship studied here, promoting corporate social responsibility integrated into organizational strategy.</p> Víctor M.

This area of study focuses on analyzing and applying the various digital tools available for the creation, management, and dissemination of advertising campaigns in virtual environments. Through the use of platforms such as social media, search engines, websites, email, and mobile applications, specific strategies are developed that allow for reaching segmented audiences with high levels of precision and effectiveness. The department's approach not only considers technical mastery of these tools but also an understanding of digital consumer behavior, data analysis for decision-making, and constant adaptation to technological changes. At the same time, it promotes a strategic and innovative vision that responds to the demands of the contemporary market, thus consolidating comprehensive training for future advertisers in the digital environment. Indeed, this article will use a qualitative methodology, with content analysis, and its respective conclusions and recommendations.</p> Ricardo Augusto Trujillo Fuentes Copyright (c) 2025 Graphosmedia 2025-08-21 2025-08-21 2 1 78 92 10.48204/j.graphos.v2n1.a7393
