Unethical but not illegal: Uncovering the persuasive messages leveraged by providers of the “real” online social impressions
2018
Due to the drastically elevated prominence of social networking sites (SNS), online social impressions such as views, comments, followers, subscribers, likes, and dislikes have become a valuable currency that translates to popularity, credibility, and even financial gains. Aside from machine-generated impressions, a growing industry known as crowdturfing utilizes human workers to provide “real” social impressions as-a-service. Although crowdturfing platforms are often seen as a clear example of deceptive conduct, they justify their business by leveraging well-crafted persuasive strategies and ethical appeals. Given the increasingly significant role of online impressions on shaping people’s …

Maturation of Epidermal Langerhans Cells In Vitro Is Accompanied by Downregulation of 4F2 (CD98) as Determined by Differential Display
1998
Following short-term culture, Langerhans cells mature morphologically and functionally into potent immunostimulatory cells. As regulation of gene expression accompanies this maturation process, it is likely that differentially expressed genes are involved in the maturation events. Using the recently described method of differential display, we generated cDNA expression patterns starting with mRNA of murine epidermal Langerhans cells isolated either directly (fLC) or following 3 d cultivation (cLC). Five hundred putative differentially expressed cDNA fragments were recovered from the gel. For a part of the fragments differential expression was confirmed by dot blot and Southern hybridization…
Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients Treated With Continuous Positive Airway Pressure: Data From the European Sleep Apnea…
2021
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a symptom of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) that resolves under treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). In some patients, sleepiness persists despite CPAP treatment. We retrospectively analyzed data on subjective residual EDS, assessed as an Epworth Sleepiness Scale score (ESS) >10, in patients from the European Sleep Apnea Database (n = 4,853, mean age +/- SD 54.8 +/- 11.8 years, 26.1% females), at baseline and at the first visit (median follow-up: 5 months, interquartile range 3-13). An ESS > 10 occurred in 56% of patients at baseline and in 28.2% of patients at follow-up. Residual EDS was analyzed in 2,190 patients (age: 55.1 +/- 12…
Sports teams as complex adaptive systems: manipulating player numbers shapes behaviours during football small-sided games
2016
Small-sided and conditioned games (SSCGs) in sport have been modelled as complex adaptive systems. Research has shown that the relative space per player (RSP) formulated in SSCGs can impact on emergent tactical behaviours. In this study we adopted a systems orientation to analyse how different RSP values, obtained through manipulations of player numbers, influenced four measures of interpersonal coordination observed during performance in SSCGs. For this purpose we calculated positional data (GPS 15 Hz) from ten U-15 football players performing in three SSCGs varying in player numbers (3v3, 4v4 and 5v5). Key measures of SSCG system behaviours included values of (1) players’ dispersion, (2) …
Fragua Social. Prensa, cultura y movilización en la CNT valenciana (1936-1939)
2015
Este estudio aborda la historia del diario valenciano Fragua Social, órgano de expresión del Comité Regional de Levante y del Comité Nacional de la CNT durante la guerra civil española de 1936 a 1939. Pretende completar y renovar los conocimientos sobre la CNT valenciana desde un enfoque cultural, y determinar su relación con la organización nacional y con las otras fuerzas sindicales y políticas durante los tres años que duró la guerra. Analiza el contenido formal del diario, la evolución de la publicación y las características del discurso y de la cultura política anarcosindicalista de la CNT de Levante expresada en Fragua Social. También elabora los perfiles biográficos de sus principale…
The social significance of the Facebook Like button
2015
In this paper we study social aspects of using the Like button for purposes of impression management, identity construction, and maintenance of social ties online. On the theoretical level our investigation combines Goffman’s notion of face-work with concepts of social network analysis, shedding light on what we dub ‘nano-level’ interaction and sociality on social networking sites. Our data come from a 2013 classroom survey in which 26 Finnish university students were asked about their motives for and ways of using the Like button. Our results show that though the Like button was designed to allow users to express their positive evaluations of the contents of Facebook posts, comments, and p…
Quand les socialistes inventaient l’avenir : presse, théories et expériences (1825-1860)
2015
International audience; "Entre 1825 et 1860, les socialistes, dans les premiers balbutiements de leur histoire, dénoncent les désordres et les injustices de leur temps tout en élaborant une nouvelle connaissance du lien social, de la solidarité et de l’union, se plaçant au croisement de la science, de la philosophie ou de la religion pour revendiquer un droit à l’action et à l’expérience. L’une des armes maîtresses dont ceux-ci se saisissent pour leurs combats est le journal : du Globe au Nouveau Monde, de La Démocratie pacifique au Tocsin des travailleurs, de La Revue du progrès à La Revue indépendante, de L’Écho de la fabrique à L’Atelier.« Quand les socialistes inventaient l’avenir » est…
Lauku diskurss presē latviešu valodā Latvijā (1989-2012)
2014
Promocijas darbā analizēts preses veidotais lauku diskurss un tā izmaiņas sociālekonomisko un citu apstākļu ietekmē no 1989. līdz 2012. gadam. Pētījumā aplūkotas laukiem, to iedzīvotājiem un zemniecībai piedēvētās nozīmes, rezultātus skatot nacionālās identitātes un sociālās atmiņas kontekstā. Teorētiskajā daļā izskaidrota lauku un nācijas saikne, nacionālās identitātes, sociālās atmiņas jēdzieni un komunikācijas loma nācijas re-iztēlošanas procesā. Konteksta uztverei darbu papildina latviešu nacionālās identitātes izpratnes, lauku un lauksaimniecības attīstības, mediju vides un tēmas izpētes līmeņa apraksts. Empīriskie dati iegūti ar diskursa vēsturisko analīzi un kvantitatīvo kontentanalī…
