Rolling or Scrolling? The Effect of Content Type on Habitual Use of Facebook
2020
The paper investigates how content type (i.e., hedonic and utilitarian content) is related to satisfaction, habitual use, use intensity and discontinued use intentions in the context of social media services. The research model was empirically tested using a survey study (n = 142) that was conducted among Facebook users. The results show that hedonic content is a strong predictor of habitual use of and satisfaction with Facebook. In turn, utilitarian content has a positive effect on satisfaction; however, it does not significantly affect habitual use. Additionally, habit affects use intensity more than satisfaction but has no significant effect on discontinued use intention. These results s…
Observational study of chronic myeloid leukemia Italian patients who discontinued tyrosine kinase inhibitors in clinical practice.
2018
It is judged safe to discontinue treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in experimental trials on treatment-free remission (TFR). We collected a total of 293 Italian patients with chronic phase CML who discontinued TKI in deep molecular response. Seventy-two percent of patients were on treatment with imatinib, and 28% with second generation TKI at the time of discontinuation. Median duration of treatment with the last TKI was 77 months [Interquartile Range (IQR) 54;111], median duration of deep molecular response was 46 months (IQR 31;74). Duration of treatment with TKI and duration of deep molecular response were shorter with second generation TK…
Comparing Long-Acting Antipsychotic Discontinuation Rates Under Ordinary Clinical Circumstances: A Survival Analysis from an Observational, Pragmatic…
2021
Background Recent guidelines suggested a wider use of long-acting injectable antipsychotics (LAI) than previously, but naturalistic data on the consequences of LAI use in terms of discontinuation rates and associated factors are still sparse, making it hard for clinicians to be informed on plausible treatment courses. Objective Our objective was to assess, under real-world clinical circumstances, LAI discontinuation rates over a period of 12 months after a first prescription, reasons for discontinuation, and associated factors. Methods The STAR Network ‘Depot Study’ was a naturalistic, multicentre, observational prospective study that enrolled subjects initiating a LAI without restrictions …
Analisi della prassi costruttiva locale per la salvaguardia degli elementi tecnici della tradizione: i tetti nell’edilizia minore della sicilia occid…
2008
Da alcuni anni conduciamo ricerche finalizzate alla individuazione di tipologie costruttive di antichi edifici che, per le peculiarità da loro possedute, possano costituire esemplificazioni progettuali per il recupero . Si vuole ricostituire l’arcaico concetto di “regola d’arte” che, se rivisitato nei suoi valori costruttivi e codificato nei suoi aspetti pratici, può assumere una certa utilità nel recupero di antiche tecniche costruttive. Riteniamo che un tale obiettivo oggi possa essere raggiunto attraverso indagini storiche, da cui dedurre le modalità empiriche con cui venivano realizzati le parti componenti un edificio, e verifiche che, effettuate in termini scientifici grazie all’uso di…
Discontinue et fragmentée ? Un état des lieux de l'histoire sociale de la France contemporaine
2012
International audience; Depuis les années 1980, l’histoire sociale a cessé d’être une étiquette évidente, elle est devenue de plus en plus discontinue et fragmentée avec l’effondrement des grands paradigmes antérieurs et l’éclatement des objets. Par ailleurs, l’histoire dite sociale est difficile à définir en raison des définitions multiples du terme « social ». À travers un bref état des lieux de l’histoire sociale de la France contemporaine telle qu’elle se pratique, nous tenterons de mettre en avant quelques évolutions en évoquant notamment l’attention accrue aux acteurs et au constructivisme, les nouvelles manières d’étudier et de catégoriser le monde social, ou encore l’intérêt croissa…
