The modernisation efforts of the public sector using information and communication technology (ΙCT) have led to the application of large information systems. TAXIS (TAX Information System) is a major information system in the Greek public financial sector. It supports the Inland Revenue Services' employees to serve the citizens and the state. This study investigated the TAXIS usage and its evaluation by the tax office employees. An appropriate questionnaire was developed and distributed to tax office employees in three branches. The analysis of one hundred responses revealed useful results for governmental policy makers, tax officials as well as public information system developers. Most responders were pleased with TAXIS characteristics except of the handbooks' effectiveness and the system's speed. Gender differences were located in their daily usage, problems' awareness, feelings and considerations about the security of TAXIS.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/5666983" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="7b79d9cd1f5bced48a1c6d30b0de83c6" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":49190609,"asset_id":5666983,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49190609/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="925295" href="https://uom-gr.academia.edu/AnastasiosEconomides">Anastasios A Economides</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="925295" type="text/json">{"id":925295,"first_name":"Anastasios","last_name":"Economides","domain_name":"uom-gr","page_name":"AnastasiosEconomides","display_name":"Anastasios A Economides","profile_url":"https://uom-gr.academia.edu/AnastasiosEconomides?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/925295/2816548/3286691/s65_anastasios.economides.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_5666983 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="5666983"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 5666983, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_5666983", });

The modernisation efforts of the public sector using information and communication technology (ΙCT) have led to the application of large information systems. TAXIS (TAX Information System) is a major information system in the Greek public financial sector. It supports the Inland Revenue Services' employees to serve the citizens and the state. This study investigated the TAXIS usage and its evaluation by the tax office employees. An appropriate questionnaire was developed and distributed to tax office employees in three branches. The analysis of one hundred responses revealed useful results for governmental policy makers, tax officials as well as public information system developers. Most responders were pleased with TAXIS characteristics except of the handbooks' effectiveness and the system's speed. Gender differences were located in their daily usage, problems' awareness, feelings and considerations about the security of TAXIS.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":49190609,"asset_id":5666983,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":925295,"first_name":"Anastasios","last_name":"Economides","domain_name":"uom-gr","page_name":"AnastasiosEconomides","display_name":"Anastasios A Economides","profile_url":"https://uom-gr.academia.edu/AnastasiosEconomides?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/925295/2816548/3286691/s65_anastasios.economides.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":7977,"name":"E Government","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/E_Government?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":8910,"name":"Evaluation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evaluation?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":16457,"name":"Public sector","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_sector?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":18814,"name":"Information and Communication technology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Information_and_Communication_technology-1?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":59587,"name":"Library and Information Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Library_and_Information_Studies?f_ri=178371"},{"id":94661,"name":"Financial Services","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Financial_Services?f_ri=178371"},{"id":113812,"name":"Gender Difference","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Gender_Difference?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":239647,"name":"System Development","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/System_Development?f_ri=178371"},{"id":244811,"name":"Financial Sector","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Financial_Sector?f_ri=178371"},{"id":331157,"name":"Taxis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Taxis?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1045589,"name":"IT Evaluation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/IT_Evaluation?f_ri=178371"},{"id":2213585,"name":"Information System","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Information_System?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_49989605" data-work_id="49989605" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/49989605/The_cost_of_urban_water_utilities_A_necessary_analysis_for_rate_setting_and_control">The cost of urban water utilities.

We call attacks of this type Pirates 2.0 attacks as they result from traitors collaborating together in a public way. In other words, traitors do not secretly collude but display part of their secret keys in a public place; pirate decoders are then built from this public information. The distinguishing property of Pirates 2.0 attacks is that traitors only contribute partial information about their secret key material which suffices to produce (possibly imperfect) pirate decoders while allowing them to remain anonymous. The side-effect is that traitors can publish their contributed information without the risk of being traced; giving such strong incentives to some of the legitimate users to become traitors allows coalitions to attain very large sizes that were deemed unrealistic in some previously considered models of coalitions. This paper proposes a generic model for this new threat, that we use to assess the security of some of the most famous traitor tracing schemes. We exhibit several Pirates 2.0 attacks against these schemes, providing new theoretical insights with respect to their security. We also describe practical attacks against various instances of these schemes. Eventually, we discuss possible variations on the Pirates 2.0 theme. This is where traitor tracing schemes step into the game: the key material embedded in the decoders is diversified on a user basis. Thus, decoders are 'marked' with the identity of the user and traitor tracing allows the authority to trace a user that produced a pirate decoder. Such users, called traitors, are more powerful when they collude to create a pirate decoder. In this case, traitor tracing should allow the tracing of at least one of the traitors that took part in the coalition. A trivial solution to the problem of traitor tracing is to provide every user with a randomly chosen key that identifies him and encrypt the content as many times as there are users in the system. Obviously, such a solution is totally impracticable due to bandwidth restrictions. Hence, bandwidth preservation in traitor tracing schemes is of crucial importance.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/18699188" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="890ba62f350c498ed8a87807024ea82d" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":40206956,"asset_id":18699188,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/40206956/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="38751979" href="https://independent.academia.edu/DuongHieuPhan">Duong-Hieu Phan</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="38751979" type="text/json">{"id":38751979,"first_name":"Duong-Hieu","last_name":"Phan","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"DuongHieuPhan","display_name":"Duong-Hieu Phan","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/DuongHieuPhan?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_18699188 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="18699188"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 18699188, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_18699188", });

The agencies best positioned to deliver an effective national campaign are public transport corporations, local authorities, health organisations, and environmental lobby groups; a coordinated approach could bring about a modest contribution towards travel reduction at a relatively low cost.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":70103349,"asset_id":53205250,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":65338764,"first_name":"John","last_name":"Egan","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"JohnEgan15","display_name":"John Egan","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/JohnEgan15?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":3254,"name":"Public Transport","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Transport?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":20436,"name":"Urban And Regional Planning","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urban_And_Regional_Planning?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":62828,"name":"Transport policy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Transport_policy?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":182962,"name":"Life Cycle","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Life_Cycle?f_ri=178371"},{"id":308097,"name":"Local Authority","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Local_Authority?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_48641706" data-work_id="48641706" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/48641706/Overconfidence_Bias_Explanation_of_Market_Anomalies_French_Market_Case">Overconfidence Bias: Explanation of Market Anomalies French Market Case</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">In this study, we test whether the overconfidence bias explains several stylized market anomalous, including a short-term continuation (momentum), a long-term reversal in stock returns, high levels of trading volume and excessive... <a class="more_link u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" data-container=".work_48641706" data-show=".complete" data-hide=".summarized" data-more-link-behavior="true" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">In this study, we test whether the overconfidence bias explains several stylized market anomalous, including a short-term continuation (momentum), a long-term reversal in stock returns, high levels of trading volume and excessive volatility.

This article sets forth a conceptual framework that seeks to link systematically the technical assessment of risk with psychological, sociological, and cultural perspectives of risk perception and risk-related behavior. The main thesis is that hazards interact with psychological, social, institutional, and cultural processes in ways that may amplify or attenuate public responses to the risk or risk event. A structural description of the social amplification of risk is now possible. Amplification occurs at two stages: in the transfer of information about the risk, and in the response mechanisms of society. Signals about risk are processed by individual and social amplification stations, including the scientist who communicates the risk assessment, the news media, cultural groups, interpersonal networks, and others. Key steps of amplifications can be identified at each stage. The amplified risk leads to behavioral responses, which, in turn, result in secondary impacts. Models are presented that portray the elements and linkages in the proposed conceptual framework.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/20852671" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="60760bfbbeaa3337d07cc8fe12d2a46d" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":41598615,"asset_id":20852671,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41598615/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="42160620" href="https://independent.academia.edu/SamuelRatick">Samuel Ratick</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="42160620" type="text/json">{"id":42160620,"first_name":"Samuel","last_name":"Ratick","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"SamuelRatick","display_name":"Samuel Ratick","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/SamuelRatick?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_20852671 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="20852671"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 20852671, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_20852671", });

This article sets forth a conceptual framework that seeks to link systematically the technical assessment of risk with psychological, sociological, and cultural perspectives of risk perception and risk-related behavior. The main thesis is that hazards interact with psychological, social, institutional, and cultural processes in ways that may amplify or attenuate public responses to the risk or risk event. A structural description of the social amplification of risk is now possible. Amplification occurs at two stages: in the transfer of information about the risk, and in the response mechanisms of society. Signals about risk are processed by individual and social amplification stations, including the scientist who communicates the risk assessment, the news media, cultural groups, interpersonal networks, and others. Key steps of amplifications can be identified at each stage. The amplified risk leads to behavioral responses, which, in turn, result in secondary impacts. Models are presented that portray the elements and linkages in the proposed conceptual framework.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":41598615,"asset_id":20852671,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":42160620,"first_name":"Samuel","last_name":"Ratick","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"SamuelRatick","display_name":"Samuel Ratick","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/SamuelRatick?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":933,"name":"New Media","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/New_Media?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":1116,"name":"Public Opinion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Opinion?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":4986,"name":"Public Relations","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Relations?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":8207,"name":"Risk","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":16664,"name":"Risk assessment","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_assessment?f_ri=178371"},{"id":28235,"name":"Multidisciplinary","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multidisciplinary?f_ri=178371"},{"id":38310,"name":"Social impact","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Social_impact?f_ri=178371"},{"id":50711,"name":"Risk Analysis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Analysis?f_ri=178371"},{"id":69531,"name":"Risk Perception","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Perception?f_ri=178371"},{"id":140534,"name":"Conceptual Framework","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Conceptual_Framework?f_ri=178371"},{"id":149214,"name":"Economic Impact","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Economic_Impact?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":369943,"name":"Information Dissemination","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Information_Dissemination?f_ri=178371"},{"id":622589,"name":"Risk Assessment","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Assessment-2?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_29827814" data-work_id="29827814" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/29827814/Suggesting_frameworks_of_citizen_sourcing_via_Government_2_0">Suggesting frameworks of citizen-sourcing via Government 2.0</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Through various platforms enabled by Web 2.0 technologies, citizens can collectively create public information, provide service, and take part in policy processes.

Pushed by the Open Government Directive of the Obama administration, citizen-sourcing may be a new mode of government operations in the U.S. This paper suggests two frameworks to examine the emerging mechanism. The first framework provides three dimensions of citizen-sourcing initiatives: purpose (image-making or ideation), collective intelligence type (professional knowledge or innovative ideas), and strategy (contest, wiki, social networking, or social voting). Second, the paper presents a framework for assessing current citizen-sourcing initiatives. Its categories include design evaluation, process evaluation, and outcome evaluation. The performance of citizen-sourcing primarily depends on the appropriateness of the platform design. The effectiveness of the process needs to be evaluated in terms of the Open Government Directive's three pillar goals of transparency, participation, and collaboration. Evaluating the impact of citizen-sourcing will reveal whether citizen-sourcing is rhetorical or if it actually exerts significant effects on society.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/29827814" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="95a5213ad538ef1402a248b3c89bb716" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":50298286,"asset_id":29827814,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50298286/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="35047482" href="https://sungkyunkwan.academia.edu/TaewooNam">Taewoo Nam</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="35047482" type="text/json">{"id":35047482,"first_name":"Taewoo","last_name":"Nam","domain_name":"sungkyunkwan","page_name":"TaewooNam","display_name":"Taewoo Nam","profile_url":"https://sungkyunkwan.academia.edu/TaewooNam?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/35047482/14885279/15658885/s65_taewoo.nam.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_29827814 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="29827814"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 29827814, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_29827814", });

But this presumption is challenged by incentive conflicts in government service. To control the social costs of incentive conflict in regulation, financial markets need to generate reliable public information about the risks and opportunity losses transferred to taxpayers and competing institutions by the government guarantees and regulatory forbearances that a bank receives. Three complementary mechanisms can assist in this task: extending the liability of bank stockholders for liquidation losses; reassigning responsibility for monitoring insurable risks from government insurance funds to private coinsurers and subordinated creditors; and improving the informativeness of reported measures of government regulatory performance. © 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/20552836" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="7ac923588aaa81a8b8e96189810045c0" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":41433288,"asset_id":20552836,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41433288/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="8605553" href="https://bc.academia.edu/edwardkane">edward kane</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="8605553" type="text/json">{"id":8605553,"first_name":"edward","last_name":"kane","domain_name":"bc","page_name":"edwardkane","display_name":"edward kane","profile_url":"https://bc.academia.edu/edwardkane?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/8605553/3647391/27057737/s65_edward.kane.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_20552836 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="20552836"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 20552836, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_20552836", });

Three complementary mechanisms can assist in this task: extending the liability of bank stockholders for liquidation losses; reassigning responsibility for monitoring insurable risks from government insurance funds to private coinsurers and subordinated creditors; and improving the informativeness of reported measures of government regulatory performance. © 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":41433288,"asset_id":20552836,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":8605553,"first_name":"edward","last_name":"kane","domain_name":"bc","page_name":"edwardkane","display_name":"edward kane","profile_url":"https://bc.academia.edu/edwardkane?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/8605553/3647391/27057737/s65_edward.kane.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_72663105" data-work_id="72663105" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/72663105/A_User_Oriented_Policy_for_Ict_Acceptance_The_Relative_Utility_Approach">A User-Oriented Policy for Ict Acceptance: The ‘Relative Utility ’ Approach</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Business strategies and policies which proved to be successful in increasing internet penetration in the early days may no longer be appropriate.

These research efforts are often based on analyzing data from Web sites such as eBay.com which provide public information about sequences of bids in closed auctions, typically in the form of tables on HTML pages. The existing literature on online auctions focuses on tools like summary statistics and more formal statistical methods such as regression models. However, there is a clear void in this growing body of literature in developing appropriate visualization tools. This is quite surprising, given that the sheer amount of data that can be found on sites such as eBay.com is overwhelming and can often not be displayed informatively using standard statistical graphics. In this article we introduce graphical methods for visualizing online auction data in ways that are informative and relevant to the types of research questions that are of interest. We start by using profile plots that reveal aspects of an auction such as bid values, bidding intensity, and bidder strategies. We then introduce the concept of statistical zooming (STAT-zoom) which can scale up to be used for visualizing large amounts of auctions. STAT-zoom adds the capability of looking at data summaries at various time scales interactively. Finally, we develop auction calendars and auction scene visualizations for viewing a set of many concurrent auctions. The different visualization methods are demonstrated using data on multiple auctions collected from eBay.com.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/741420" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="1108c941d7b150c86004ac0511acbbef" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":4242803,"asset_id":741420,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/4242803/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="49756" href="https://nthu.academia.edu/GalitShmueli">Galit Shmueli</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="49756" type="text/json">{"id":49756,"first_name":"Galit","last_name":"Shmueli","domain_name":"nthu","page_name":"GalitShmueli","display_name":"Galit Shmueli","profile_url":"https://nthu.academia.edu/GalitShmueli?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/49756/15277/1484521/s65_galit.shmueli.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_741420 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="741420"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 741420, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_741420", });

Given the rise of local sustainable development and the emphasis placed on individual actions for sustainability, the paper examines the role of citizens in adopting sustainable lifestyles, incorporating a range of behavioural responses from energy saving and water conservation, to waste recycling and green consumption. Focussing on the debate in geography concerning the engagement of the public in environmental action, the paper argues that despite the assertions of those who advocate a deliberative approach to engagement (see . Engaging the public: information and deliberation in environmental policy. Environment and Planning A 32, 1141-1148]), an approach based on a social-psychological understanding of behaviour can have signiWcant beneWts. Such an approach is being developed by geographers in a range of settings and in this paper these developments are situated within the context of existing research that has identiWed environmental 'activists' in terms of their values, attitudes and demographic composition. The paper aims to examine environmental behaviour in relation to two key issues: (1) the way in which environmental action is framed in everyday practices (such as consumption behaviour) and (2) how these practices are reXected amongst diVerent segments of the population to form lifestyle groups. The paper provides new insights for examining sustainable lifestyles that further our appreciation of how actions to help the environment are lived in everyday practices and framed by diVerent lifestyle groups. Accordingly, the paper oVers both academics and policy makers new insights into the potential use of focussing on lifestyle groups as a means for changing behaviour.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/27122249" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="72e9cee95b4faeeec70bbd16b349b7bc" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":47372640,"asset_id":27122249,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/47372640/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="51102830" href="https://independent.academia.edu/AndrewGilg">Andrew Gilg</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="51102830" type="text/json">{"id":51102830,"first_name":"Andrew","last_name":"Gilg","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"AndrewGilg","display_name":"Andrew Gilg","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AndrewGilg?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_27122249 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="27122249"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 27122249, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_27122249", });

Given the rise of local sustainable development and the emphasis placed on individual actions for sustainability, the paper examines the role of citizens in adopting sustainable lifestyles, incorporating a range of behavioural responses from energy saving and water conservation, to waste recycling and green consumption. Focussing on the debate in geography concerning the engagement of the public in environmental action, the paper argues that despite the assertions of those who advocate a deliberative approach to engagement (see . Engaging the public: information and deliberation in environmental policy. Environment and Planning A 32, 1141-1148]), an approach based on a social-psychological understanding of behaviour can have signiWcant beneWts. Such an approach is being developed by geographers in a range of settings and in this paper these developments are situated within the context of existing research that has identiWed environmental 'activists' in terms of their values, attitudes and demographic composition. The paper aims to examine environmental behaviour in relation to two key issues: (1) the way in which environmental action is framed in everyday practices (such as consumption behaviour) and (2) how these practices are reXected amongst diVerent segments of the population to form lifestyle groups. The paper provides new insights for examining sustainable lifestyles that further our appreciation of how actions to help the environment are lived in everyday practices and framed by diVerent lifestyle groups. Accordingly, the paper oVers both academics and policy makers new insights into the potential use of focussing on lifestyle groups as a means for changing behaviour.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":47372640,"asset_id":27122249,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":51102830,"first_name":"Andrew","last_name":"Gilg","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"AndrewGilg","display_name":"Andrew Gilg","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AndrewGilg?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":2707,"name":"Environmental policy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_policy?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":4524,"name":"Sustainable Development","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sustainable_Development?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":28235,"name":"Multidisciplinary","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multidisciplinary?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":127348,"name":"Energy Saving","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Energy_Saving?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":219104,"name":"Water Conservation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Water_Conservation?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_14399274" data-work_id="14399274" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/14399274/OVERCONFIDENCE_BIAS_EXPLANATION_OF_MARKET_ANOMALIES_FRENCH_MARKET_CASE">OVERCONFIDENCE BIAS: EXPLANATION OF MARKET ANOMALIES FRENCH MARKET CASE</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">In this study, we test whether the overconfidence bias explains several stylized market anomalous, including a short-term continuation (momentum), a long-term reversal in stock returns, high levels of trading volume and excessive... <a class="more_link u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" data-container=".work_14399274" data-show=".complete" data-hide=".summarized" data-more-link-behavior="true" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">In this study, we test whether the overconfidence bias explains several stylized market anomalous, including a short-term continuation (momentum), a long-term reversal in stock returns, high levels of trading volume and excessive volatility.

In general, respondents regarded global warming as both bad and highly likely. Many believed that warming has already occurred. They tended to confuse stratospheric omne depletion with the greenhouse effect and weather with climate. Automobile use, heat and emissions from industrial processes, aerosol spray cans, and pollution in general were frequently perceived as primary causes of global warming. Additionally, the "greenhouse effect" was often interpreted literally as the cause of a hot and steamy climate. The effects attributed to climate change often included increased skin cancer and changed agricultural yields. The mitigation and control strategies proposed by interviewees typically focused on general pollution control, with few specific links to carbon dioxide and energy use. Respondents appeared to be relatively unfamiliar with such regulatory developments as the ban on CFCS for nonessential uses. These beliefs must be considered by those designing risk communications or presenting climaterelated policies to the public.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/13509219" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="6194cf2d2ad552c73127b63dbd435509" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":45256896,"asset_id":13509219,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/45256896/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="32709058" href="https://washington.academia.edu/ABostrom">Ann Bostrom</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="32709058" type="text/json">{"id":32709058,"first_name":"Ann","last_name":"Bostrom","domain_name":"washington","page_name":"ABostrom","display_name":"Ann Bostrom","profile_url":"https://washington.academia.edu/ABostrom?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/32709058/28270608/26464774/s65_ann.bostrom.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_13509219 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="13509219"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 13509219, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_13509219", });

In general, respondents regarded global warming as both bad and highly likely. Many believed that warming has already occurred. They tended to confuse stratospheric omne depletion with the greenhouse effect and weather with climate. Automobile use, heat and emissions from industrial processes, aerosol spray cans, and pollution in general were frequently perceived as primary causes of global warming. Additionally, the \"greenhouse effect\" was often interpreted literally as the cause of a hot and steamy climate. The effects attributed to climate change often included increased skin cancer and changed agricultural yields. The mitigation and control strategies proposed by interviewees typically focused on general pollution control, with few specific links to carbon dioxide and energy use. Respondents appeared to be relatively unfamiliar with such regulatory developments as the ban on CFCS for nonessential uses. These beliefs must be considered by those designing risk communications or presenting climaterelated policies to the public.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":45256896,"asset_id":13509219,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":32709058,"first_name":"Ann","last_name":"Bostrom","domain_name":"washington","page_name":"ABostrom","display_name":"Ann Bostrom","profile_url":"https://washington.academia.edu/ABostrom?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/32709058/28270608/26464774/s65_ann.bostrom.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":1512,"name":"Climate Change","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Climate_Change?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":4594,"name":"Carbon Dioxide","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Carbon_Dioxide?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":13460,"name":"Risk communication","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_communication?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":28235,"name":"Multidisciplinary","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multidisciplinary?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":45405,"name":"Global Warming","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Global_Warming?f_ri=178371"},{"id":50711,"name":"Risk Analysis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Analysis?f_ri=178371"},{"id":62628,"name":"global Climate change","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/global_Climate_change?f_ri=178371"},{"id":74243,"name":"Skin Cancer","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Skin_Cancer?f_ri=178371"},{"id":93298,"name":"Fossil Fuels","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fossil_Fuels?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":192198,"name":"MENTAL MODEL","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/MENTAL_MODEL?f_ri=178371"},{"id":239651,"name":"Pollution Control","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pollution_Control?f_ri=178371"},{"id":295924,"name":"Energy Use","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Energy_Use?f_ri=178371"},{"id":354794,"name":"Greenhouse gases","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Greenhouse_gases?f_ri=178371"},{"id":369458,"name":"Greenhouse Effect","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Greenhouse_Effect?f_ri=178371"},{"id":380824,"name":"Ozone","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Ozone?f_ri=178371"},{"id":428925,"name":"Control Strategy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Control_Strategy?f_ri=178371"},{"id":741384,"name":"Ozone layer depletion","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Ozone_layer_depletion?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1003892,"name":"Energy Source","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Energy_Source?f_ri=178371"},{"id":2019300,"name":"Exploratory Study","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Exploratory_Study?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_79750647" data-work_id="79750647" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/79750647/Use_of_Linked_Data_in_the_design_of_information_infrastructure_for_collaborative_emergency_management_system">Use of Linked Data in the design of information infrastructure for collaborative emergency management system</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">The evolution of communication channels and social networks proliferation through the web are inspiring and enabling the construction of collaborative environments.

Such awareness can best be maintained by a public-information programme designed around a population's existing perception of landslides. As a case study to gauge the awareness of landslide hazards, a survey has been conducted among vulnerable communities in the Barranco de Tirajana (BdT) Basin on Gran Canaria, one of the most active zones of slope movement in the Canary Islands. Results from a formal questionnaire, together with anecdotal evidence, suggest that the communities are generally aware that landslides occur in the Basin and can be dangerous, but that they rarely consider slope movements as a potential hazard to themselves. Consequently, the communities are also uncertain about the most effective response during an emergency. Another result is that there is little pressure on local authorities either to prepare contingency plans in case of major destruction by landslides, or to enforce stricter building codes to reduce the persistent damage caused by creep. Having highlighted the weaknesses in hazard perception, the results of the survey have been used to design an awareness programme for the Basin. They may also be used as a basis for similar initiatives elsewhere.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/51034830" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="e4209ac01e3400eb45d0cc9623e92f50" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":68903699,"asset_id":51034830,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/68903699/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="51037713" href="https://independent.academia.edu/ChristopherKilburn">Christopher Kilburn</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="51037713" type="text/json">{"id":51037713,"first_name":"Christopher","last_name":"Kilburn","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"ChristopherKilburn","display_name":"Christopher Kilburn","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/ChristopherKilburn?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_51034830 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="51034830"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 51034830, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_51034830", });

Comparisons were made between the datasets obtained by the ROV and SCUBA diver video transect ('Diver') and the PIT method on three nearby coral sites with different hydrographies, scleractinian coral composition, dominant species and percentage cover. There was no significant difference between the ROV and 'Diver' datasets whereas the PIT method tended to over-estimate percentage cover at sites where corals are not extensive. Power analysis showed that the minimum detectable change in coral percentage cover, δ, had low mean values between 0.39% and 1.65% for the ROV dataset, 0.66% for the "Diver' dataset, and 12.11% for the PIT dataset. This implied that the ROV and SCUBA survey methods can produce higher precision in terms of detecting temporal changes in coral communities and are thus more suitable for scientific research and management purposes than the PIT method. Other advantages of using video transects by SCUBA divers or ROV include provision of permanent records for subsequent studies and public information, less field time incurred and wider survey areas.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/20224412" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="2d7b2dd862a9b5114cd12e239f5cd04d" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":41341540,"asset_id":20224412,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41341540/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="41421763" href="https://independent.academia.edu/DavidRandall6">David Randall</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="41421763" type="text/json">{"id":41421763,"first_name":"David","last_name":"Randall","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"DavidRandall6","display_name":"David Randall","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/DavidRandall6?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_20224412 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="20224412"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 20224412, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_20224412", });

Other advantages of using video transects by SCUBA divers or ROV include provision of permanent records for subsequent studies and public information, less field time incurred and wider survey areas.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":41341540,"asset_id":20224412,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":41421763,"first_name":"David","last_name":"Randall","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"DavidRandall6","display_name":"David Randall","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/DavidRandall6?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":30629,"name":"Survey Methods","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Survey_Methods?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":47884,"name":"Biological Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biological_Sciences?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":58054,"name":"Environmental Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Sciences?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":116347,"name":"Power Analysis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Power_Analysis?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":131949,"name":"Remotely Operated Vehicle","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Remotely_Operated_Vehicle?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":329844,"name":"Experimental","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Experimental?f_ri=178371"},{"id":387716,"name":"Scientific Research","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Scientific_Research?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_9174435" data-work_id="9174435" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/9174435/RADIOACTIVE_WASTE_MANAGEMENT_IN_HUNGARY_CHANGING_APPROACHES_AND_CONFLICTS">RADIOACTIVE WASTE MANAGEMENT IN HUNGARY: CHANGING APPROACHES AND CONFLICTS</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">One of the most interesting paradoxes of the application of nuclear energy in Hungary is that although the building, operation, and even the recent lifetime extension of the Paks nuclear power plant has not faced significant social... <a class="more_link u-tcGrayDark u-linkUnstyled" data-container=".work_9174435" data-show=".complete" data-hide=".summarized" data-more-link-behavior="true" href="#">more</a></div><div class="complete hidden">One of the most interesting paradoxes of the application of nuclear energy in Hungary is that although the building, operation, and even the recent lifetime extension of the Paks nuclear power plant has not faced significant social opposition, attempts for siting radioactive waste disposal facilities have been accompanied by a number of social conflicts. The paper reviews the history of radioactive waste management in Hungary from the 1970s until recently. It is found that since the political transition of 1990, top-down technocratic approaches to facility siting have been replaced by the so-called "market approach", which put a strong emphasis on host community support. Most important elements of the latter approach include public information and the provision of generous financial compensation/incentives for host and neighbouring communities. However, analysis of recent Hungarian siting cases shows the weaknesses of the pure market approach, e.g., the lack of transparency and openness regarding national strategies, the lack of accountability, and the focus on financial incentives rather than sustainable development issues.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/9174435" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="227e0020de02c0cd5ff921ee10959371" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":47861625,"asset_id":9174435,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/47861625/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNiw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="20957405" href="https://kre.academia.edu/Zolt%C3%A1nFerencz">Zoltán Ferencz</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="20957405" type="text/json">{"id":20957405,"first_name":"Zoltán","last_name":"Ferencz","domain_name":"kre","page_name":"ZoltánFerencz","display_name":"Zoltán Ferencz","profile_url":"https://kre.academia.edu/Zolt%C3%A1nFerencz?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/20957405/8179223/9152885/s65_zolt_n.ferencz.jpg_oh_fdb9b9b5c4f935b65bd6bddee03e3ca5_oe_55a78f45___gda___1437048797_0b45888ed27875a18bac692bbc5566ee"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_9174435 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="9174435"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 9174435, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_9174435", });

Securi § ng these products against unauthorized acces ses has been a © long-term goal of the database security research comm unity and the government statistical agencies. Solutions t o this problem require combining several techniques and m echanisms. Recen t advances in data mining and machine l earning algorithms have, however, increased the security r isks one may incur when releasing data for mining from out side parties. Issues related to data mining and security hav e been recognized and investigated only recen tly. T his paper, deals with the problem of limiting disclosure o f sensitive rules.

The success of such active or tactical asset allocation strategies is dependent on their ability to capture either inefficiencies, to the extent that they exist, or disequilibria associated with changes in the investor opportunity set. Much of the equity-style timing literature focuses on the shifting between pairs of risky assets or between one risky and one riskless asset class, using a binomial approach. This paper develops a multinomial timing model based on macroeconomic and fundamental public information using Frank Russell large-cap and small-cap style indexes.

The success of such active or tactical asset allocation strategies is dependent on their ability to capture either inefficiencies, to the extent that they exist, or disequilibria associated with changes in the investor opportunity set. Much of the equity-style timing literature focuses on the shifting between pairs of risky assets or between one risky and one riskless asset class, using a binomial approach. This paper develops a multinomial timing model based on macroeconomic and fundamental public information using Frank Russell large-cap and small-cap style indexes. We model four different market segments simultaneously. Out-of-sample tests demonstrate that active multi-style rotation strategies can be devised that outperform the best performing buy-and-hold portfolio. The profitability of such strategies is robust to reasonable levels of transaction costs.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":45989503,"asset_id":25651892,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":49312179,"first_name":"Bala","last_name":"Arshanapalli","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"BalaArshanapalli","display_name":"Bala Arshanapalli","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/BalaArshanapalli?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"},{"id":49328279,"first_name":"lorne","last_name":"switzer","domain_name":"laurelhart","page_name":"lorneswitzer","display_name":"lorne switzer","profile_url":"https://laurelhart.academia.edu/lorneswitzer?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/49328279/176484301/166544591/s65_lorne.switzer.jpeg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":7209,"name":"Performance Measurement","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Performance_Measurement?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":11746,"name":"Alternative Investments","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Alternative_Investments?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":16219,"name":"Asset Allocation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Asset_Allocation?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":28477,"name":"Market Segmentation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Market_Segmentation?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":32213,"name":"Emerging Markets","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Emerging_Markets?f_ri=178371"},{"id":37771,"name":"Investment management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Investment_management?f_ri=178371"},{"id":57424,"name":"Digital Asset Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Digital_Asset_Management?f_ri=178371"},{"id":121035,"name":"Profitability","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Profitability?f_ri=178371"},{"id":125428,"name":"Active Directory Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Active_Directory_Management?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":214678,"name":"Asset Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Asset_Management?f_ri=178371"},{"id":473216,"name":"Hedge Fund","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hedge_Fund?f_ri=178371"},{"id":639625,"name":"Investment Strategies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Investment_Strategies?f_ri=178371"},{"id":749302,"name":"Indexation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Indexation?f_ri=178371"},{"id":817745,"name":"Asset","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Asset?f_ri=178371"},{"id":868794,"name":"Transaction Cost","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Transaction_Cost?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1168392,"name":"Expected Shortfall","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Expected_Shortfall?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1340660,"name":"Software Asset Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Software_Asset_Management?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1537105,"name":"Market Timing","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Market_Timing?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1556995,"name":"IT Asset Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/IT_Asset_Management?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_23857733" data-work_id="23857733" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/23857733/The_Impact_of_Public_Information_on_Bidding_in_Highway_Procurement_Auctions">The Impact of Public Information on Bidding in Highway Procurement Auctions</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">A number of papers in the theoretical auction literature show that the release of information regarding the seller’s valuation of an item can cause bidders to bid more aggressively.

If having this information confers an advantage, eavesdropping behavior, the use of information in signals by individuals other than the primary target, is expected to evolve. Thus, eavesdropping for information on predation risk to avoid predators may be common. We describe the first study to quantify an effect of avian alarm calling on the perceived cost of predation in a mammalian receiver/eavesdropper using the eastern tufted titmouse-eastern chipmunk dyad. We used the technique of giving-up densities to quantify changes in chipmunks' perceived risk of predation while foraging under experimental playbacks of titmouse vocalizations (seet, mobbing, and contact calls), hawk calls, and wood thrush song (control). Titmouse mobbing calls significantly increased chipmunk's perceived risk of predation. Chipmunks also appeared to divert attention (i.e., cost of multitasking) to monitoring alarm call playbacks/assessing predation risk as shown by the absence of density-dependent foraging. In contrast, when foraging during hawk calls (a direct cue of predation risk), chipmunks showed no differences in foraging relative to controls. These results support other published studies that prey respond more strongly to indirect source of information about predation risk than to direct sources.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/17758949" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="775ef891e4c5875976fd435d4264b94f" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":39694014,"asset_id":17758949,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/39694014/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNiw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="37664599" href="https://florida.academia.edu/KathrynSieving">Kathryn (Katie) E Sieving</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="37664599" type="text/json">{"id":37664599,"first_name":"Kathryn (Katie)","last_name":"Sieving","domain_name":"florida","page_name":"KathrynSieving","display_name":"Kathryn (Katie) E Sieving","profile_url":"https://florida.academia.edu/KathrynSieving?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/37664599/10621730/11856287/s65_kathryn_katie_.sieving.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_17758949 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="17758949"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 17758949, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_17758949", });

If having this information confers an advantage, eavesdropping behavior, the use of information in signals by individuals other than the primary target, is expected to evolve. Thus, eavesdropping for information on predation risk to avoid predators may be common. We describe the first study to quantify an effect of avian alarm calling on the perceived cost of predation in a mammalian receiver/eavesdropper using the eastern tufted titmouse-eastern chipmunk dyad. We used the technique of giving-up densities to quantify changes in chipmunks' perceived risk of predation while foraging under experimental playbacks of titmouse vocalizations (seet, mobbing, and contact calls), hawk calls, and wood thrush song (control). Titmouse mobbing calls significantly increased chipmunk's perceived risk of predation. Chipmunks also appeared to divert attention (i.e., cost of multitasking) to monitoring alarm call playbacks/assessing predation risk as shown by the absence of density-dependent foraging. In contrast, when foraging during hawk calls (a direct cue of predation risk), chipmunks showed no differences in foraging relative to controls. These results support other published studies that prey respond more strongly to indirect source of information about predation risk than to direct sources.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":39694014,"asset_id":17758949,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":37664599,"first_name":"Kathryn (Katie)","last_name":"Sieving","domain_name":"florida","page_name":"KathrynSieving","display_name":"Kathryn (Katie) E Sieving","profile_url":"https://florida.academia.edu/KathrynSieving?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/37664599/10621730/11856287/s65_kathryn_katie_.sieving.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":155,"name":"Evolutionary Biology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolutionary_Biology?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":173,"name":"Zoology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Zoology?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":9846,"name":"Ecology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Ecology?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":25730,"name":"Behavioral Ecology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Behavioral_Ecology?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":69826,"name":"Perceived Risk","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Perceived_Risk?f_ri=178371"},{"id":128413,"name":"Density dependence","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Density_dependence?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":254128,"name":"Predation Risk","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Predation_Risk?f_ri=178371"},{"id":918188,"name":"Giving-up Density","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Giving-up_Density?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_18704757" data-work_id="18704757" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/18704757/Order_flows_news_and_exchange_rate_volatility">Order flows, news, and exchange rate volatility</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">This paper examines the roles of order flow (reflecting private information) and news (reflecting public information) in explaining exchange rate volatility.

The rationale is that presidents need to gain public support to pressure Congress into passing their legislation; while doing that, they can capture the public’s interest in politics and educate civically the most inattentive audience. To accomplish the task, strategic messaging adequate to digital media is necessary. Millennials appear as having modest interest and knowledge of politics despite their intense presence on digital media. On the other hand, they represent a third of the electorate— also projected to become the most important economic contributors in society — thus constituting an audience that cannot be ignored. Because metaphors are credited with an important role in processing new information and in branding leadership, I propose a category of new metaphors, labeled High Definition (HD) Metaphors that have three characteristics: they concentrate the policy contained in the message, are novel, and are relevant to the targeted audience.<br /> The most important claim is that HD Metaphors catch the eye of the audience by increasing the message visibility; the corresponding hypothesis is (H1) Presidential messages containing High Definition Metaphors are more salient than their literal counterparts. Second, I argue that HD Metaphors facilitate the understanding of the message as they have a contribution to the acquisition of new information; hence the second hypothesis: (H2) Presidential messages  <br />containing High Definition Metaphors produce more political knowledge. Last, I claim that metaphors can influence the audience, by producing more agreement with the message; this is reflected in the third hypothesis: (H3) Presidential messages containing High Definition Metaphors are more persuasive than their literal counterparts.<br /> To test these claims I conducted an experiment with 251 students in a large American  university in the southeast,  in which two groups were exposed to written, fictitious metaphorical messages sourced by a fictitious president of the U.S. and two groups received the non metaphorical versions of the messages (literal counterparts). One pair of messages was constructed on a topic of high involvement and the other pair was on a topic of low involvement, as determined at a previous date.<br /> Statistical analysis indicated that HD Metaphors increase the visibility of the message especially for audiences less interested in the topic. This is a key finding because it suggests that presidents can capture the attention of Millennials who are in general apathetic to the political discourse. On the other hand, HD Metaphors did not produce more political knowledge or more persuasion, in this particular design.<br /> The importance of this study is theoretical and practical. It advances a new concept, High Definition Metaphors that was empirically tested with the power of an experiment; future work can build on these findings by detecting other effects. This research also connects theoretical models and concepts from various disciplines, thus enriching the scholarly understanding of issues that are not satisfied within the boundaries of a single field. Most importantly, this research has applicability to practice by informing  presidential communication in the digital era; additionally, it can enhance the external strategic communication of leadership in  non- governmental and international organizations since  HD Metaphors can be adapted to fit other audiences whose attention is desired.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/28995157" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="07d6ec90bbbb4c50c428a0afbd168f7b" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":49441756,"asset_id":28995157,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49441756/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNiw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="1260078" href="https://independent.academia.edu/MirelaIamandiStimus">Mirela Iamandi Stimus</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="1260078" type="text/json">{"id":1260078,"first_name":"Mirela","last_name":"Iamandi Stimus","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"MirelaIamandiStimus","display_name":"Mirela Iamandi Stimus","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/MirelaIamandiStimus?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/1260078/461105/577812/s65_mirela.iamandi_stimus.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_28995157 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="28995157"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 28995157, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_28995157", });

Strategic Communication of Leadership in a Digital Age. Doctoral Dissertation","created_at":"2016-10-07T20:16:49.976-07:00","url":"https://www.academia.edu/28995157/How_Presidents_Can_Become_Hip_by_Using_High_Definition_Metaphors_Strategic_Communication_of_Leadership_in_a_Digital_Age_Doctoral_Dissertation?f_ri=178371","dom_id":"work_28995157","summary":"The aim of this interdisciplinary research was to see whether American presidents can reach Millennials more effectively in the digital age while publicly advancing the legislative agenda of their administration. The rationale is that presidents need to gain public support to pressure Congress into passing their legislation; while doing that, they can capture the public’s interest in politics and educate civically the most inattentive audience. To accomplish the task, strategic messaging adequate to digital media is necessary. Millennials appear as having modest interest and knowledge of politics despite their intense presence on digital media. On the other hand, they represent a third of the electorate— also projected to become the most important economic contributors in society — thus constituting an audience that cannot be ignored. Because metaphors are credited with an important role in processing new information and in branding leadership, I propose a category of new metaphors, labeled High Definition (HD) Metaphors that have three characteristics: they concentrate the policy contained in the message, are novel, and are relevant to the targeted audience.\n\tThe most important claim is that HD Metaphors catch the eye of the audience by increasing the message visibility; the corresponding hypothesis is (H1) Presidential messages containing High Definition Metaphors are more salient than their literal counterparts. Second, I argue that HD Metaphors facilitate the understanding of the message as they have a contribution to the acquisition of new information; hence the second hypothesis: (H2) Presidential messages \ncontaining High Definition Metaphors produce more political knowledge. Last, I claim that metaphors can influence the audience, by producing more agreement with the message; this is reflected in the third hypothesis: (H3) Presidential messages containing High Definition Metaphors are more persuasive than their literal counterparts.\n\tTo test these claims I conducted an experiment with 251 students in a large American university in the southeast, in which two groups were exposed to written, fictitious metaphorical messages sourced by a fictitious president of the U.S. and two groups received the non metaphorical versions of the messages (literal counterparts). One pair of messages was constructed on a topic of high involvement and the other pair was on a topic of low involvement, as determined at a previous date.\n\tStatistical analysis indicated that HD Metaphors increase the visibility of the message especially for audiences less interested in the topic. This is a key finding because it suggests that presidents can capture the attention of Millennials who are in general apathetic to the political discourse. On the other hand, HD Metaphors did not produce more political knowledge or more persuasion, in this particular design.\n\tThe importance of this study is theoretical and practical. It advances a new concept, High Definition Metaphors that was empirically tested with the power of an experiment; future work can build on these findings by detecting other effects. This research also connects theoretical models and concepts from various disciplines, thus enriching the scholarly understanding of issues that are not satisfied within the boundaries of a single field. Most importantly, this research has applicability to practice by informing presidential communication in the digital era; additionally, it can enhance the external strategic communication of leadership in non- governmental and international organizations since HD Metaphors can be adapted to fit other audiences whose attention is desired.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":49441756,"asset_id":28995157,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":1260078,"first_name":"Mirela","last_name":"Iamandi Stimus","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"MirelaIamandiStimus","display_name":"Mirela Iamandi Stimus","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/MirelaIamandiStimus?f_ri=178371","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/1260078/461105/577812/s65_mirela.iamandi_stimus.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":859,"name":"Communication","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Communication?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":2869,"name":"Digital Media","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Digital_Media?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":4486,"name":"Political Science","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Political_Science?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":7369,"name":"Political communication","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Political_communication?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":9218,"name":"Strategic Communication","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Strategic_Communication?f_ri=178371"},{"id":30561,"name":"Experimental Research","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Experimental_Research?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1723635,"name":"Public Policy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Policy?f_ri=178371"},{"id":2543147,"name":"Fronteer Research","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fronteer_Research?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_11021110" data-work_id="11021110" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/11021110/Estimated_research_and_development_costs_of_rotavirus_vaccines">Estimated research and development costs of rotavirus vaccines</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Diseases like rotavirus afflict both upper- and lower-income countries, but most serious illnesses and deaths occur among the latter.

It is a vital public health issue that vaccines for these types of global diseases can recover research and development (R&D) costs from high-priced markets quickly so that manufacturers can offer affordable prices to lower-income nations. Cost recovery depends on how high R&D costs are, and this study attempts to replace high, unverified estimates with lower, more verifiable estimates for two new vaccines, RotaTeq (Merck) and Rotarix (GlaxoSmithKline or GSK), based on detailed searches of public information and follow-up interviews with senior informants. We also offer a new perspective on “cost of capital” as a claim for recovery from public bodies. Our estimates suggest that companies can recover all fixed costs quickly from affluent markets and thus can offer these vaccines to lower-income countries at prices they can afford. Better vaccines are a shared project between companies and public health agencies; greater transparency and consistency in reporting of R&D costs is needed so that fair prices can be established.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/11021110" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="6360ad545465b9ea56757488777ec4a6" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":46963725,"asset_id":11021110,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/46963725/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNiw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="26673328" href="https://independent.academia.edu/DonaldLight">Donald Light</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="26673328" type="text/json">{"id":26673328,"first_name":"Donald","last_name":"Light","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"DonaldLight","display_name":"Donald Light","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/DonaldLight?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_11021110 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="11021110"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 11021110, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_11021110", });

Management strategies should take this information into account to achieve maximal outcomes. r","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":43928629,"asset_id":14739938,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":33702346,"first_name":"Aggie","last_name":"Wegner","domain_name":"cdu","page_name":"AggieWegner","display_name":"Aggie Wegner","profile_url":"https://cdu.academia.edu/AggieWegner?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":4523,"name":"Water quality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Water_quality?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":7609,"name":"Environmental Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Management?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":12061,"name":"Risk Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Management?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":16288,"name":"Public Health","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Health?f_ri=178371","nofollow":true},{"id":17073,"name":"Person Perception","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Person_Perception?f_ri=178371"},{"id":21724,"name":"Water Pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Water_Pollution?f_ri=178371"},{"id":28235,"name":"Multidisciplinary","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multidisciplinary?f_ri=178371"},{"id":28582,"name":"Swimming","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Swimming?f_ri=178371"},{"id":37306,"name":"Quality Control","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quality_Control?f_ri=178371"},{"id":69531,"name":"Risk Perception","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Perception?f_ri=178371"},{"id":95108,"name":"RECREATION","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/RECREATION?f_ri=178371"},{"id":178371,"name":"Public Information","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Information?f_ri=178371"},{"id":184467,"name":"Seawater","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Seawater?f_ri=178371"},{"id":192721,"name":"Risk factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_factors?f_ri=178371"},{"id":271756,"name":"Western Australia","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Western_Australia?f_ri=178371"},{"id":383422,"name":"Local Knowledge","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Local_Knowledge?f_ri=178371"},{"id":620049,"name":"Risk Factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Factors-1?f_ri=178371"},{"id":622367,"name":"Water Quality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Water_Quality-1?f_ri=178371"},{"id":640868,"name":"Management Strategy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Management_Strategy?f_ri=178371"},{"id":1208706,"name":"Environment","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environment?f_ri=178371"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_57462757" data-work_id="57462757" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/57462757/The_public_need_to_know_emergencies_government_organizations_and_public_information_policies">The public need to know: emergencies, government organizations, and public information policies</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Communications with the public in times of emergency is an important function of government agencies.

We formalize this notion and give new examples for such domains, including a "SAT domain" and a "single-value combinatorial auctions" domain. We study two informational models: where the set of desired outcomes is public information (the "known" case), and where it is private information (the "unknown" case). Under the "known" assumption, we present several truthful approximation mechanisms. Additionally, we suggest a general technique to convert any bitonic approximation algorithm for an unweighted domain (where agent values are either zero or one) to a truthful mechanism, with only a small approximation loss. In contrast, we show that even positive results from the "unknown single minded combinatorial auctions" literature fail to extend to the "unknown" single-value case. We give a characterization of truthfulness in this case, demonstrating that the difference is subtle and surprising. *</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/15059724" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="915fb871024237f2935ceade4de521c2" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":43611076,"asset_id":15059724,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/43611076/download_file?st=MTc0MDYzNzEwNiw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="34082114" href="https://independent.academia.edu/LaviRon">Ron Lavi</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="34082114" type="text/json">{"id":34082114,"first_name":"Ron","last_name":"Lavi","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"LaviRon","display_name":"Ron Lavi","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/LaviRon?f_ri=178371","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_15059724 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="15059724"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 15059724, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_15059724", });
