Purchasing Behaviour of Polish Consumers in the Internet
2017
In recent years we may observe the growing importance of the Internet in the lives of consumers. As the data from Central Statistical Office (GUS) shows, in 2015 approximately 75.8% of Polish households had access to the Internet. The value of e-commerce is estimated at PLN 27 billion. 54% of Internet users buy in Polish e-shops and 13% in foreign internet shops. The threat of violations of consumer rights, including cybercrime, is on the increase. This requires caution, the knowledge of legislative solutions and litigation methods of exerting consumers' rights on the part of customers. The article focuses on the purchasing behaviour of Internet users taking into account consumer rights and…
The Adoption of The Internet of Things by Young Consumers – an Empirical Investigation
2017
On the background of theoretical considerations and literature review, this article presents the results of the preliminary study of young consumers about their adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) - treated as the emerging technology, creating a new quality of information technology usage, despite perceived costs and privacy concerns. The data for the analysis came from purpose sample of 223 young consumers from Eastern Poland via CAWI questionnaire. The primary goal of the research was to explore the adoption of IoT by young consumers in Poland regarding the level of adoption and factors explaining this phenomenon. The main analysis used univariate analysis of variance (UNIANOVA) and …
Backing out of private pension provision - Lessons from Germany
2012
Financing pensions in the EU is a challenge. Many EU countries introduced private pension schemes to compensate declining public pension levels due to reforms made necessary by demographic change. In 2001, Germany introduced the Riester pension. Ten years after introduction the prevalence rate of this voluntary private pension scheme approximates 37 %. However, numerous criticisms raise doubts that the market for Riester products is transparent. Using the 2010 German SAVE survey, this article investigates terminated and dormant Riester contracts on a household level for the first time. Respectively 14.5 and 12.5 % of households who own or have owned a Riester contract terminated or set dorm…
Evolution by mean curvature flow of Lagrangian spherical surfaces in complex Euclidean plane
2016
We describe the evolution under the mean curvature flow of embedded Lagrangian spherical surfaces in the complex Euclidean plane $\mathbb{C}^2$. In particular, we answer the Question 4.7 addressed in [Ne10b] by A. Neves about finding out a condition on a starting Lagrangian torus in $\mathbb{C}^2$ such that the corresponding mean curvature flow becomes extinct at finite time and converges after rescaling to the Clifford torus.
(Table 1) Sea surface temperature reconstruction for eastern equatorial Pacific surface sediment samples
2012
Significant uncertainties persist in the reconstruction of past sea surface temperatures in the eastern equatorial Pacific, especially regarding the amplitude of the glacial cooling and the details of the post-glacial warming. Here we present the first regional calibration of alkenone unsaturation in surface sediments versus mean annual sea surface temperatures (maSST). Based on 81 new and 48 previously published data points, it is shown that open ocean samples conform to established global regressions of Uk'37 versus maSST and that there is no systematic bias from seasonality in the production or export of alkenones, or from surface ocean nutrient concentrations or salinity. The flattening…
