Facebook groups as citizen science tools for plant species monitoring
2021
I social network sono canali di comunicazione utilizzati per condividere enormi quantità di dati, che possono essere utilizzati per la ricerca scientifica, anche nel campo della biodiversità. Per sapere quanto i dati ricavati dai social network possono integrare quelli raccolti per scopi scientifici, è necessario individuarne i bias. Utilizzando i dati estratti da un gruppo Facebook specializzato nella flora vascolare siciliana, abbiamo analizzato quali sono i caratteri che aumentano la probabilità che una pianta spontanea venga fotografata e postata su un social network. A tal fine, abbiamo confrontato frequenze e attributi delle specie fotografate dai membri del gruppo Facebook con quelli…
Parent and peer attachment as predictors of facebook addiction symptoms in different developmental stages (early adolescents and adolescents)
2019
Abstract Facebook Addiction (FA) is a problem that concerns minors all over the world. The attachment bond with peers and parents has been proven to be a risk factor for the onset of FA. However, the family and peer group can have a different importance depending on the developmental period of the minor. This study examined the influence of peer and parental attachment on the symptoms of FA in early adolescents and adolescents to verify whether attachment to peers and parents predicts FA symptoms in both categories respectively. The sample was composed of 598 participants (142 early adolescents) between the ages of 11 and 17 years (M age = 14.82, SD = 1.52) recruited in the school setting. …
Plant hunting: exploring the behaviour of amateur botanists in the field
2021
We asked what are the behavioural and logistic preferences of professional and amateur botanists when exploring flora in the field. We extracted temporal and spatial data on vas- cular plant species occurrences from three datasets of Sicilian flora: a subset of iNaturalist, a dataset collected by a Facebook group focused on the flora of Sicily and a subset of the professional database European Vegetation Archive. We used the time span of individual contributor’s activity as a proxy of their commitment to collecting information about the flora of Sicily. Climate and landscape data were used to better characterize the spatial and temporal activity of data contributors. Finally, we assessed wh…
Latvijas Universitātes studentu reakcija uz viltus ziņām vietnē Facebook
2020
Pieaugot viltus ziņu apjomam sociālajos tīklos, arvien aktuālāk kļūst izglītot studentus medijpratībā. Sociālais tīkls Facebook ir viens no populārākajiem sociālajiem tīkliem, un ikviens Facebook lietotājs var izteikt viedokļus vai dalīties ar informāciju. Bieži informācija, ar kuru dalās Facebook lietotāji, nav pilnīgi patiesa, un tas maldina sabiedrību. Pētījuma mērķis ir uzzināt, kāda ir Latvijas Universitātes studentu reakcija uz viltus ziņām, un vai studenti ir pietiekoši izglītoti medijpratībā. Empīriskā pētījuma veikšanai tika izmantota fokusgrupas intervija un anketēšana.
Facebook as a Small World: a topological hypothesis
2011
Facebook is becoming a pervasive entity as its social, cultural and media ramifications grow deep and entrenched in our daily life. Its nature of a complex system of interactions, bearing a strong similarity to networks built through individual choices and systems shaped by evolu- tionary pressure, makes it an interesting target for research. Scale-free Small World networks, recently popularized by Barabasi, are a topological class pertaining to both these domains, whose members have resilience to disruption and short intermediate connections between nodes. In this paper we show that the topological structure of a specific subset of Facebook, gathered using data from a self-report online qu…
Who Can See My Stuff? : Online Self-Disclosure and Gender Differences on Facebook
2018
This study investigates the gendered privacy practices and concerns on Facebook, by leaning on the idea of privacy management as a form of digital labour. We analyse if young Facebook users are more concerned about the privacy against other users than against Facebook as a company or against third-party partners. We also analyse if privacy concerns and visibility rules are differentiated by gender. Using a structured online survey, we collected responses from a sample of 813 Italian university students (aged 18-34). Our results show that the respondents have just slightly more privacy concerns against other users than against Facebook, and much less against third-party partners. Unlike a ma…
