Understanding the sense of community and continuance intention in virtual communities: The role of commitment and type of community
2019
Virtual communities (VCs) have become essential in current organizations and society, and so their sustainability is a topic of interest for researchers and practitioners. We focus on the sense of virtual community (SoVC) and commitment as relevant antecedents in achieving the success and maintenance of different types of VCs (communities of interest, virtual learning communities, and virtual communities of practice). Specifically, this study examines a moderated mediation model in which the type of virtual community moderates the indirect effect of a SoVC on the intention to continue through the perceived commitment of the users of the VC. The sample consists of 299 members of Virtual comm…
β-lactoglobulin gene promoter: new SNPs in sheep and goat
2008
β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) is the major whey protein in milk of ruminants and several non ruminant species, but it is lacking in rodents, lagomorphs and human. The aim of this work was sequencing the promoter region of β-lg gene in Sicilian sheep and goat dairy breeds, in order to identify polymorphisms. In these species, the promoter region was aligned using the sequences available on database. A common set of primers was designed to amplify and sequence a fragment of approximately 2.1 kb. Within this region, 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified in goat breeds: 7 out of them were not yet reported in literature. Moreover, in sheep breeds 15 SNPs were newly identified. Using…
Skolotāju aizvietošana to prombūtnes laikā
2018
Skolotāju prombūtne Latvijas skolās ir sastopama bieži, tomēr rīcībai tās gadījumā, pēc autores domām, netiek pievērsta atbilstoša atbildīgo iestāžu uzmanība. Līdz ar to šī maģistra darba mērķis ir pierādīt, ka šī brīža skolotāju aizvietošanas procesa organizēšanai Latvijā ir vairāki trūkumi, un noskaidrot, vai Latvijā būtu lietderīgi attīstīt skolotāju-aizstājēju darbību, kā arī apzināt priekšnoteikumus šādas iniciatīvas īstenošanai. Darba ietvaros tika izpētīta atbilstoša teorētiskā literatūra, veikts apkopojums par skolotāju prombūtni vienā Rīgas vidusskolā, izveidotas divas aptaujas skolu pārstāvju un skolotāju viedokļa noskaidrošanai, analizēti iegūtie dati un izstrādāti ieteikumi.

Audit Institutions in the European Union: Public Service Promotion, Environmental Engagement and COVID Crisis Communication through Social Media
2020
This article analyses Social Media (SM) use as a promotion tool for public institutions in the public audit sector. The authors propose a quantitative model to assess online engagement of 94 European audit institutions (national and regional) with their stakeholders, based on SM and web activity metrics of these institutions, with a focus on pressing matters such as environment, sustainability and the current COVID pandemic. The proposed model may be applied to assess organisations from any public or private sector. The research finds that SM presence helps audit institutions to promote their services more effectively by directing their stakeholders to extensive content on the audit institu…
Digital Influencers, Food and Tourism—A New Model of Open Innovation for Businesses in the Ho.Re.Ca. Sector
2022
The choice of influencer marketing as an endorser for promoting products and services is becoming a more and more effective communication strategy of open innovation. Their use of social media platforms, such as Instagram, allows them to be reached by millions of followers all over the world. As a response to the economic crisis that affected Italy after the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, Chiara Ferragni, one of the most endorsed influencers worldwide, started a communication campaign with the aim to promote Italian food and tourist destinations (cities of art, seaside, ski and countryside locations, thermal baths, museums, galleries, hotels, etc.). This study analyses Chiara Ferragni…
L'ENTE PUBBLICO ECONOMICO. Il modello siciliano e l'Az.A.Si.
Il lavoro dottorale, assumendo come punto di osservazione l’esperienza dell’Azienda Asfalti Siciliani e- in controluce- dell’Ente siciliano per la promozione industriale e dell’Ente minerario siciliano, mette a fuoco, nelle sue luci ed ombre nonché nei suoi tratti di spiccata originalità, il modello regionale di intervento dei pubblici poteri nello scacchiere economico. L’indagine prende le mosse da un’articolata ricostruzione in chiave storica dell’epopea della Regione imprenditrice onde addivenire ad una profonda rivisitazione della fenomenolgia dell’impresa pubblica calibrata sulla riconcettualizzazione dello scopo di lucro alla stregua di autentico tratto distintivo dell’attività impren…
Health Promotion Interventions in Sports Clubs: Can We Talk About a Setting-Based Approach? A Systematic Mapping Review
2019
Many researchers and authorities have recognized the important role that sports clubs can play in public health. In spite of attempts to create a theoretical framework in the early 2000s, a thorough understanding of sports clubs as a setting for health promotion (HP) is lacking. Despite calls for more effective, sustainable, and theoretically grounded interventions, previous literature reviews have identified no controlled studies assessing HP interventions in sports clubs. This systematic mapping review details how the settings-based approach is applied through HP interventions in sports clubs and highlights facilitators and barriers for sports clubs to become health-promoting settings. In…

Constructing endothelial-specific hypoxia-regulated vectors
2013
Soluspesifinen geenien ilmentyminen on molekyylibiologian yksi suurista tutkimusalueista. Geenit aktivoituvat eri solutyypeissä eri tavoin, vaikka soluissa on sama geneettinen perimä. Tutkimuksissa on löydetty useita tekijöitä mm. enhanserit ja enhanseri-RNA molekyylit, jotka vaikuttavat mm. solukohtaiseen geenin ilmentymiseen. Enhanserit ovat alueita genomissa, jotka sitovat proteiineja ja vuorovaikuttavat transkriptiokompleksin kanssa lisäten geenin transkriptiota. Enhanseri-RNA:t ovat enhaserialueilta tuottettuja RNA-molekyylejä. Geenin ilmentymiseen vaikuttaa todella moniulotteinen säätelyjärjestelmä, kun mukaan lasketaan kaikki transkriptioon ja translaatioon vaikuttavat tekijät. Endot…
Sport clubs' health promotion activities for the surrounging communities : a comparative case study of Columbus Blue Jackets, HJK and Sotkamon Jymy
2014
ABSTRACT The level of physical activity continues to decrease globally. Therefore it is important to explore new ways of promoting physical activity and healthy life style. Sport clubs are an excellent setting for physical activity and health related programs targeted for the surrounding community due to their visibility, popularity and image. They offer also companies a possibility to conduct their health related corporate social responsibility activities by supporting and cooperating with the club. Despite its importance there are not many studies related to the role of sport clubs as health promoters. The aim of this research is to explore what kind of health promotion activities sport c…
