The Impact of Internet and Social Media Use on Well-Being

2021

The present research examines the longitudinal average impact of frequency of use of Internet and social networking sites (SNS) on subjective well-being of adolescents in Germany. Based on five-wave panel data that cover a period of nine years, we disentangle between-person and within-person effects of media use on depressive symptomatology and life satisfaction as indicators of subjective well-being. Additionally, we control for confounders such as TV use, self-esteem, and satisfaction with friends. We found that frequency of Internet use in general and use of SNS in particular is not substantially related subjective well-being. The explanatory power of general Internet use or SNS use to p…

Median kulutuksen vaikutus suomalaisten luottamukseen julkisia instituutioita ja kanssaihmisiä kohtaan

2012

Luottamuksen on havaittu olevan erittäin merkittävä yhteiskunta koossa pitävä ja kehittävä voima. Se voi hyvinkin olla Pohjoismaiden menestyksen salaisuus. Tässä tutkielmassa pureudutaan empiirisin tilastomenelmin median eri tyyppien parissa vietetyn ajan ja yhteiskunnallisen luottamuksen väliseen yhteyteen Suomessa. Aihetta ei kirjoitushetkellä ole muualla juuri tutkittu Suomen aineistoa käyttäen. Tutkimuksen päähavainnot ovat, että sanomalehtien luku on yhteydessä yksilön korkeaan yhteiskunnalliseen luottamukseen, ja television katselu vastaavasti enteilee alhaista luottamuksen tasoa.

On the Provisioning of Mobile Digital Terrestrial TV Services to Vehicles With DVB-T

2012

[EN] Most of the DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting -Terrestrial) networks deployments worldwide have been designed for fixed rooftop antennas and high transmission capacity, not providing good coverage level for vehicular mobile reception. This letter analyzes how to combine different technical solutions, so far studied individually, in order to increase the robustness of the transmission for vehicular reception to provide in-band mobile services. In particular, we consider: receive antenna diversity, hierarchical modulation, and Application Layer Forward Error Correction (AL-FEC). Performance evaluation results have been obtained by means of simulations, laboratory tests, and field measure…

Indicadores compuestos como metodología innovadora en Comunicación. Aplicación para la evaluación de los medios públicos europeos

2020

The currently dominant scientific production model in the field of Communication exhibits an excess of standardization towards mainly empirical work that is overwhelming caried out using quantitative techniques based on simple statistical analyses, in many cases limiting the presentation of results to a reading of the available data. This article presents an innovative proposal in this area, designed as a new form of dissemination and scientific presentation, with the objective of constructing three composite indicators that, when applied to European public service media, will enable the assessment of the perception of their social value, independence, and management efficiency. Another aim…

Teledu: Transmedia Learning Ecosystem for People at Risk of Exclusion

2021

The TELEDU tele-education ecosystem, integrated by software and hardware components, allows the use of Web resources through Interactive Digital TV (iDTV) without the need to be continuously connected. It works with any existing digital TV standard and is especially useful for users who do not have broadband, being a very effective solution in places where there is a digital divide. The user must have, at least, a cell phone with 3G connection and any of these three options: Digital Terrestrial TV (DTT), Satellite TV or Cable TV. The conception of TELEDU is based on the premise that the software will offer a friendly interaction. Based on this, an interoperable, open and scalable environmen…

The relationship between body and screen in Studio Azzurro’s performances since the 1980s until today

2018

Studio Azzurro is an Italian group that has been working with different performative languages since the 1980s: video installations, theater, video art, cinema, interactive installations, interactive museums. In all these artistic experiences Studio Azzurro has never worked using the languages handed down by tradition, but has always experimented by mixing them with new technologies. The work they have conducted in theater is particular, because the use of new technologies has transformed the concept of theater and has opened the way for the development of new performative forms such as digital or technological theater. In what follows, we will study the relationship between body and screen…

Remote but Connected : Lapland as a Scene of Transnational Crime in Ivalo

2021

Set in a small town in the north of Finland, the crime TV series Ivalo (Arctic Circle, Finland, 2018) exemplifies the fascination of Nordic Noir with ‘remote’ locations as scenes of transnational crime. The plot seems to forebode the corona pandemic, portraying the spread of a life-threatening ‘Yemenite virus’ developed as a biological weapon from the Balkans to Lapland. In this article, I analyze how the virus narrative allows the series to bring new perspectives on Nordic Noir. The narrative emphasizes international connections while creating representations of places that can be characterized as both translocal (Greiner and Sakdapolrak 2013) and glocal (Robertson 2012). Because of its fa…

Climate Change in Literature, Television and Film from Norway

2020

Environmental and climatic change has become a frequent motif in contemporary Norwegian literature, television and film, and Norway has the worldwide first organization of writers committed to climate action (The Norwegian Writers’ Climate Campaign, founded in 2013). In this article, we argue that Norwegian climate change fiction and related works draw on elements that relate to specific national and/or Nordic cultural, societal and historical features, and that these elements give these works their distinct identity. We focus on four such features: (1) notions of “Nordicity”; (2) an (imagined) intimate connection between Norwegianness and nature, often seen as a typical element of Norwegia…
