Eduardo Sojo: The architect of the satirical journalism in Spain and Argentina
2016
El artículo analiza la extensa obra de Eduardo Sojo a través de las publicaciones satíricas que fundó en España y en Argentina durante las últimas décadas siglo XIX. A partir de la indagación de algunas de sus caricaturas políticas se reconstruye su posicionamiento político en los diferentes contextos en los que desarrolló su obra y el impacto que suscitó en la opinión pública su discurso en favor de los valores republicanos y su reiterado repudio hacia el clero, en ambos países. This article analyzes Eduardo Sojós extensive work through the satirical publications, which he founded in Spain and Argentina during the last decades of 19 th century.

Le bien-être alimentaire du quotidien à l’institution hospitalière : de nouveaux enjeux normatifs.
2020
Cet article interroge la façon dont les questions sanitaires jouent sur les normes en matière de santé. Dans une perspective diachronique et culturellement située, l’objectif de l’article sera, dans un premier temps, de montrer que le bien-être est une valeur évolutive aux prismes des attentes sociétales. D’un bien-être aux contours fermés et délimités, les enjeux sociaux et la forte médiatisation de la nutrition en font une valeur qui évolue, dont la qualification reste toujours difficile à saisir. Dans un second temps, l’article propose la construction d’un outil de mesure du bien-être alimentaire en contexte hospitalier afin d’intégrer des éléments subjectifs et actuels autour des attent…

Dataa näkyvissä: Läpinäkyvyys algoritmien ja datan journalistisessa hyödyntämisessä
2021
Läpinäkyvyyden käsite on noussut keskeiseksi viestinnän, median ja politiikan tutkimuksessa sekä viestinnän ja politiikan käytäntöjen eettisessä arvioinnissa. Läpinäkyvyyttä on esitetty keinoksi ylläpitää ja kasvattaa luottamusta journalistista työtä ja sen tuotteita kohtaan interaktiivisessa media- ja viestintäympäristössä. Tiedontuotannon ja päätöksenteon perustuessa yhä enemmän dataan ja sen prosessointiin läpinäkyvyys on noussut keskeiseksi käsitteeksi myös algoritmisen päätöksenteon kohdalla. Tässä artikkelissa tarkastelemme läpinäkyvyyden roolia dataa ja algoritmeja sekä journalismia koskevassa keskustelussa ja esitämme mahdollisuuksia dataan ja algoritmeihin tukeutuvan journalismin l…

[Alert for meningitis in Palermo? Successful strategies to counteract the impact of mass media]
2018
Following two invasive meningococcal disease cases among twenties, general population overloaded vaccination Units of the Palermo's District during summer 2016. Sicilian Health Authorities adopted several public health strategies including: a) active meningococcal vaccination free of charge for people from 18 up to 30 years of age, b) information in crowded places and rapid communication by media. An increase in anti-meningococcal vaccination doses administered (+868%) as well as in anti-dTp and HPV vaccination (+41% and +8%, respectively) due to a further catch-up was observed.
Public Opinion on Psychotropic Drugs: An Analysis of the Factors Influencing Acceptance or Rejection
1997
Widespread negative attitudes and irrational beliefs about psychotropic drugs held by the public affect patients' treatment compliance. This study was an attempt to identify factors influencing people's acceptance or rejection of psychotropic drugs. An opinion poll was taken by a representative group of 2,176 adults in Germany. In addition to their attitudes toward psychotropic and cardiac drugs and their ratings of perceived risks and benefits, they were also asked about their drug knowledge, their fear of losing self-control, and their fundamental political values. Our results show that even for the treatment of severe mental disease, psychotropic drugs generally are not well accepted com…
Immersion and emotion: their impact on the sense of presence.
2005
The present study is designed to test the role of immersion and media content in the sense of presence. Specifically, we are interested in the affective valence of the virtual environments. This paper describes an experiment that compares three immersive systems (a PC monitor, a rear projected video wall, and a head-mounted display) and two virtual environments, one involving emotional content and the other not. The purpose of the experiment was to test the interactive role of these two media characteristics (form and content). Scores on two self-report presence measurements were compared among six groups of 10 people each. The results suggest that both immersion and affective content have …
Supporting Reporting: On the Positive Effects of Text- and Video-Based Awareness Material on Responsible Journalistic Suicide News Writing.
2016
Suicide is a global public health problem. Media impact on suicide is well confirmed and there are several recommendations on how media should and should not report on suicide to minimize the risk of copycat behavior. Those media guidelines have been developed to improve responsible reporting on suicide (RRS). Although such guidelines are used in several countries, we lack empirical evidence on their causal effect on actual journalistic news writing. We conducted an experiment with journalism students (N = 78) in Germany in which we tested whether exposure to awareness material promoting RRS influences news writing. As a supplement to the widely used text-based material, we tested the impac…
Increased Vaccination Coverage among Adolescents and Young Adults in the District of Palermo as a Result of a Public Health Strategy to Counteract an…
2018
During the summer of 2016 four cases of invasive meningococcal disease in rapid succession among young adults in the district of Palermo, Italy, resulting in one death, were widely reported by local and national mass media. The resultant ‘epidemic panic’ among the general population overloaded the vaccination units of the Palermo district over the following months. Strategies implemented by the Sicilian and local public health authorities to counteract ‘meningitis fear’ included the following: (a) extension of active and free-of-charge anti-meningococcal tetravalent vaccination from age class 12–18 to 12–30 years old; (b) implementation of vaccination units during normal clinic hours in roo…
