Proximal and distal antecedents of problematic information technology use in organizations

2021

PurposeExcessive use of work-related information technology (IT) devices can lead to major performance and well-being concerns for organizations. Extant research has provided evidence of the incidence of such problematic IT use in organizations. We extend the understanding of problematic IT use by examining its individual (proximal) and organizational (distal) antecedents.Design/methodology/approachDrawing from the self-worth theory and the concept of fear of being left behind, we address proximal antecedents that lead to problematic IT use. Drawing from the concept of autonomy paradox, we address distal antecedents of problematic IT use through a positive association with the two proximal …

CONTROVERSIAS EN TORNO AL SOFTWARE LIBRE: PRÁCTICAS Y DISCURSOS EN LA DOCENCIA UNIVERSITARIA VALENCIANA

2008

Resumen basado en el de la publicación La progresiva implantación del software libre en los ámbitos universitarios, se acompaña de un discurso construido sobre las controversias que rodean a esta tecnología. Para el análisis de este problema se utiliza el modelo de 'espacios controversiales' propuesto por Nudler, definiendo uno de estos espacios en torno a la aplicación de las tecnologías informáticas en las enseñanzas universitarias. El supuesto es que el debate sobre el copyleft está alcanzando también al discurso pedagógico que acompaña a las aplicaciones de estas tecnologías. Este modelo es el que se trata de aplicar al estudio de cómo se formulan tales controversias en la difusión del …

Effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardiac structure and function.

2022

SGLT2 inhibitors reduce cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure, regardless of the presence or absence of diabetes in patients at high cardiovascular risk and in those with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). In patients with HF and preserved EF, empagliflozin also showed favorable effects mainly related to the reduction of hospitalization for heart failure. These favorable effects are beyond the reduction of glycemic levels and mainly related to beneficial hemodynamic and anti-inflammatory effects of these drugs and improved cardiac energy metabolism. In this review, we aimed to evaluate the effects of SGLT2 inhibitor on cardiac remodeling and function, w…

Skull and Encephalic Injuries Caused by Beach Umbrellas: Case Reports and Review of Literature

2016

This study reports two unusual cases of skull-encephalic injuries in bathers that were caused by violent impacts with beach umbrellas. The first case concerned a 36-year-old man who, while lying on a sun bed, was struck on his left temple by a beach umbrella, which had been blown away by a gust of wind. The second case concerned a six-year-old child who was struck on the right temporal region while he was playing on the sand. Both subjects died. A review of the literature was carried out. Various skull and brain injuries caused by several objects were found, but no injuries caused by beach umbrellas were detected. There were only cases of injuries caused by normal umbrellas. These cases sho…

Users’ Preferences for Designing Spaces under Urban Bridges as Vital Urban Spaces

2018

Today’s fast-paced urbanization process has caused many problems in urban development. Therefore, urban space is slowly losing its nature and disappearing due to the speed of rapid urban development. Trying to keep up with the modern era’s prevalent epoch of roads and bridges, urban policies in Iran have focused on developing road networks in recent years. Thus numerous elevated structures, urban highways and bridges are used to connect the urban fabric of the country’s cities, enabling the smooth transition of traffic in its cities. Although many view urban highways merely as tools for mobility; it is true that they influence on urban structure and the communities that they interconnect. H…
