Review the chart on page 195 (Chapter 6) in the text for the Four Frames for Communication, Organization, and Gendered Identity. Choose one of the four Frames and review the information in the chart on how that Frame is studied in communication, gender and organizations.

Formulate a basic research question (what you might want to study about your chosen Frame) using the information on creating effective research questions from the website and the chart in the text.
