Les collectifs qui défendent l’existence d’un internet alternatif et non marchand sont souvent présentés par les sciences sociales comme marginaux et inaudibles (Hintz et Milan, 2009 ; Alexandre et al ., 2022). Certes les fournisseurs d’accès à internet (FAI) associatifs demeurent relativement invisibles au niveau national en France, mais le Parlement allemand a reconnu au réseau libre Freifunk un statut d’utilité publique en 2020. Si l’internet non marchand est réservé à une élite compétente, comment expliquer que les destins des infrastructures libres puissent être différents ? Partant du programme d’« ethnographie des infrastructures » (Star, 1999) et d’une enquête auprès de FAI associatifs en France et en Allemagne, nous montrerons que les services alternatifs ont façonné un discours de résistance à l’égard de l’internet commercial qui est entré, dans une certaine mesure, en écho avec les politiques publiques. Nous analysons en particulier le rôle de la division du travail dans le succès de ces collectifs dont la mission porte autant sur la construction d’infrastructures de connexion que sur la formulation d’un discours de plaidoyer en leur faveur. L’accession à une reconnaissance d’utilité publique apparaît corrélée à une division du travail autour de ces deux missions, au sein d’institutions distinctes.

Les infrastructures Internet – essentiellement les câbles sous-marins et la 5G – sont au cœur d’une compétition entre les puissances, principalement les États-Unis et la Chine, leurs fournisseurs de technologies et de services. Les États insulaires du Pacifique (EIP) y voient surtout un catalyseur du développement économique et cherchent à trouver un équilibre entre les différents acteurs, tout en préservant leur souveraineté.

Les grands textes et références internationales confient aux grandes entreprises la responsabilité de diffuser les valeurs environnementales et sociales dans leur sphère d’influence. Cette vision « messianique » de leur responsabilité les conduit à promouvoir des pratiques RSE au sein de leur chaîne d’approvisionnement, notamment auprès de leurs fournisseurs et sous-traitants PME. Dans une vision managériale, elles demandent à leurs fournisseurs de signer des codes de conduite et autres clauses contractuelles pour se protéger des risques liés à un comportement non responsable. Quelle que soit la vision, les grandes entreprises sont considérées comme des acteurs majeurs de la diffusion de pratiques socialement et environnementalement responsables pour les PME de leur chaîne d’approvisionnement. À partir de cinq études de cas de grands groupes industriels considérés comme socialement responsables et à partir d’une enquête auprès de PME françaises, cet article se propose d’analyser les facteurs, freins ou leviers qui expliquent l’influence exercée sur les PME par la gestion « durable » de la relation fournisseurs. Il cherche à répondre à la question : dans quelle mesure les PME sont-elles poussées à adopter des politiques RSE par les grandes entreprises clientes ? Dans les pays développés comme la France, cette influence est faible, même lorsque les grands clients se disent engagés dans la RSE. Nous avons dégagé les principaux déterminants de cette influence : le degré de formalisation et surtout de contrôle des engagements demandés au fournisseur, le degré des contradictions entre les exigences économiques de prix toujours plus bas et les exigences de conformité avec les codes de conduite ou autres standards, la nature de la relation commerciale entre les acteurs basée sur un rapport de force économique dans une approche de stricte conformité ou basée sur la confiance, les relations personnelles et le partenariat gagnant-gagnant. Les grandes entreprises, même proactives, ne sont que de faibles leviers de la diffusion de la RSE chez leurs fournisseurs PME parce que tous ces facteurs jouent faiblement ou comme des freins, ce qui traduit une mise en œuvre encore très partielle des objectifs annoncés de développement durable au sein des services achat. Les objectifs et l’engagement du chef d’entreprise dans la PME constituent des facteurs clés pour l’adoption de stratégies RSE dans les PME et donc pour aller au-delà de la stricte conformité et transformer les exigences RSE du client en opportunités. Nous proposons huit types de réponses stratégiques des PME fournisseurs aux exigences de leurs clients en fonction des facteurs dégagés ci-dessous.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate internet-only banks’ (IOBs) adoption by French consumers and attempt to understand the factors that influence consumers’ initial trust in this type of service. Design/methodology/approach A non-probability convenience sample of potential IOBs adopters from France was used to test a structural equation model that analyzed the antecedents of initial trust and usage intentions of IOBs. Findings The study shows that trust is a major influencer in IOBs’ adoption in France. It has also been found that consumer familiarity with internet banking, high perceived structural assurance, perceived website quality, bank reputation and relative advantage are critical factors influencing IOBs’ initial trust formation. Research limitations/implications This study shows the applicability of the initial trust-building model in the context of IOBs and underlines the importance of factors such as familiarity, reputation and perceived quality in the context of online banking services in France. Practical implications This paper provides e-banking companies with the most important factors that contribute to build the initial trust of customers. E-banks need to focus on making themselves known and promoting their brand more effectively through advertising and advocacy. Originality/value This study contributes significantly to the marketing research related to consumer trust and brand reputation, as well as to the electronic banking literature. The results show the importance of initial trust in the context of services and the main factors that influence it, including a key branding variable such as reputation. The paper also focuses on the IOBs’ adoption in France, a market understudied compared to the USA, and seeks to understand the mechanisms associated with the initial formation of French consumers’ trust toward it.

Le site Internet « MétéEAU Nappes » offre un ensemble de services permettant le suivi du comportement actuel et futur des aquifères en France et ainsi la disponibilité de la ressource en eau par anticipation. Il est possible, pour les points de surveillance actuellement proposés et associés à un modèle global, de visualiser les mesures les plus récentes issues du réseau piézométrique national. Ces données sont représentées sous forme de cartes et de courbes issues de travaux de modélisation et de prévision des niveaux des nappes en basses eaux en lien avec des problématiques de sécheresse. Ces prévisions, lancées sur 6 mois, sont comparées à des seuils piézométriques de sécheresse issus des arrêtés préfectoraux de restriction d'usage en cours. Des données météorologiques, hydrologiques et piézométriques sont mises en ligne en temps réel et en format interopérable sur 10 sites représentatifs de France métropolitaine. Les moyens technologiques employés afin d'aboutir à ces services sont : la technologie GPRS (à ce jour déployée sur près de 1400 stations du réseau piézométrique national) permettant de mettre à disposition quotidiennement les données mesurées, ainsi qu'une architecture technique dédiée s'appuyant sur des standards internationaux et sur des technologies récentes permettant le croisement de données temps réel de sources différentes et la valorisation de modélisations déjà effectuées. Le site Internet public ouvrira vraisemblablement en 2020.

Le Baromètre du numérique est une enquête réalisée annuellement sur les équipements et les usages numériques en France. Elle s’est établie au fil du temps comme une source de référence pour les acteurs intéressés par le numérique (pouvoirs publics, entreprises…). La société française peut être qualifiée de « société numérique » : 76 % des Français se connectent à Internet tous les jours, et 12 % d’entre eux ne sont pas internautes. Le développement du smartphone a explosé en quelques années : désormais, c’est le moyen de connexion à Internet le plus fréquemment utilisé, avant l’ordinateur. Les utilisateurs sont prudents et avertis : le développement du numérique dépend de la confiance dans le numérique (protection des données personnelles, qualité et fiabilité de l’information, sécurité des moyens de paiement…). Internet est devenu une condition d’intégration dans la société : 76 % des personnes se sentent prêtes à adopter de nouvelles technologies ou de nouveaux services numériques.

With the ever-increasing speed of the Internet and the ever-increasing power of personal computers and mobile devices, illegal downloading affects not only recorded music, but also movies and other medias. To stem the loss of revenues caused to copyright holders, France passed the Hadopi Law in September 2009 to be enforced by a new agency - the Hadopi Authority. The Hadopi Authoritys mission includes three major objectives. 1) to enforce the copyright law on the Internet through legal actions against violators, 2) to educate Internet users about illegal versus legal activities with respect to the copyright law, and 3) to facilitate the development of Internet services providing legal access to copyrighted works. To deter piracy and, at the same time, to serve as a pedagogical tool, Hadopi uses the graduated response system. Users who participate in illegal downloading are first warned two times. After a third violation, their file is forwarded to a court for possible prosecution. Between October 2010 and March 2012, the Hadopi Authority performed several surveys of Internet use to measure the effectiveness of the Law. The resulting reports show some modest positive changes in the behavior of French Internet users.

Five decades have passed since the first bit was transmitted over the internet. Although the internet has improved our lives and led to the digital economy, currently only 51% of the world’s population have access to it. Currently, consumers mostly access the internet via mobile broadband, 2G, 3G, and 4G services. Regulatory bodies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the US are responsible for ensuring that consumers receive an adequate service from Mobile Network Operators (MNOs). Usually, regulators evaluate the performance of each MNO in terms of service quality yearly and publish a report. To evaluate performance, metrics such as coverage, download/upload speed, and the number of subscribers can be used. However, the evaluation process and the metrics used by each regulatory body are inconsistent, and this makes it hard to determine which nations are providing adequate services to their citizens. Furthermore, it is not clear as to which performance evaluation is the right path. In this case study, we analyzed the reports released from eight nations (United States of America, United Kingdom, France, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, and Australia) as of the year 2020. We then point out the advantages and the drawbacks of the current evaluation process and metrics. Furthermore, a discussion on why the current methods are not sufficient to evaluate 5G services is presented. Our findings indicate that there is a great need for a unified metric and that this process becomes more complex with the rollout of 5G.

The emergence of new technological platforms to access online services and content have transformed the media landscape dramatically. They require policymakers to reexamine the decades-old regulations traditionally addressed to broadcasters and telecommunications providers. Must-carry, retransmission consent, and “carry one, carry all” rules in particular require reconsideration, if not reform.
Must-carry regulation mandates cable and satellite pay TV providers to retransmit free-to-air broadcast programming. Such regulations have been adopted around the world, including the United States, Mexico, and France, the subjects of this article. Policymakers in these three countries have offered a variety of justifications for such rules, including the promotion of competition, local news and content, viewers´ rights, and content diversity.
Recent data and case law, however, strongly suggest that emergent platforms to access online services and content undermine the standing justifications for must-carry, retransmission, and “carry one, carry all” rules.
This Article argues that policymakers should consider other regulatory mechanisms to achieve the original reasons for such rules. The dramatic increase in the variety of devices (e.g., TV, tablet, mobile phones, smart TVs), service and content distributors (e.g., free-to-air TV, cable TV, internet), and service providers (e.g., broadcasters and “over-the-top” internet providers) strongly suggests that policymakers must reconsider the current approach. But any amendment to current regulation will depend on internet penetration and access to new video distribution platforms in a given geographic area. That is, without internet access, free-to-air TV might continue to be an important platform for service and content distribution.

This paper presents the diversity of social penetration rates of information and communication technologies (ICT) among selected European countries according to European statistics on diverse ICT indicators. The data considered cover the 2006–2010 time range and was obtained from the Eurostat portal. The scope of the study selected EU countries – Belgium, Germany, France, Finland, Sweden, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovenia, Spain. The following ICT indicators were analyzed: percentage of households or corporations with broadband access to the Internet (HHBAI), percentage of individuals who are regularly using the Internet (IRUI), percentage of individuals who ordered goods or services over the Internet (IOGSI). These indicators of ICT penetration rate in the countries examined were analyzed in terms of the following aspects: forecasting (estimates until the year 2035) , maximum speed of change of these indicators (the pace of social penetration of information technology), delays or advances (in years) as compared to the averages in EU. The results are presented in tables and graphs. General conclusions and directions of future research are indicated at the end of the paper.

Background: Understanding SARS-CoV-2 dynamics and transmission is a serious issue. Its propagation needs to be modeled and controlled. The Alsace region in the East of France has been among the first French COVID-19 clusters in 2020. Methods: We confront evidence from three independent and retrospective sources: a population-based survey through internet, an analysis of the medical records from hospital emergency care services, and a review of medical biology laboratory data. We also check the role played in virus propagation by a large religious meeting that gathered over 2000 participants from all over France mid-February in Mulhouse. Results: Our results suggest that SARS-CoV-2 was circulating several weeks before the first officially recognized case in Alsace on 26 February 2020 and the sanitary alert on 3 March 2020. The religious gathering seems to have played a role for secondary dissemination of the epidemic in France, but not in creating the local outbreak. Conclusions: Our results illustrate how the integration of data coming from multiple sources could help trigger an early alarm in the context of an emerging disease. Good information data systems, able to produce earlier alerts, could have avoided a general lockdown in France.

The study investigated the effects of internet adoption on international trade among Nigeria and its major trading partner. The study adopted a gravity model and sourced data from world development indicators (WDI) database between 1960 to 2020. Empirical findings from the study reveal that with regards to trade volume and trade intensity, on the average, United states of America is Nigeria’s largest trading partner followed by India, France, United Kingdom and China. Furthermore, the study revealed that the effects of distance, language, colony and contagion on international trade were insignificant. A plausible explanation could be that internet adoption to a large extent has made the world a global village and brought global technological transformation that has permeated all sectors of the economy. The study further found out that the gross domestic product of Nigeria and those of its major five trading partners significantly influence total export and import of goods and services.

En France, certaines entreprises sont soumises de façon réglementaire à la réalisation d’une vérification des informations sociétales. Il existe un quasi-monopole de la profession comptable sur le marché de la vérification sociétale (VS) et notamment des Big 4, considérés comme des entreprises de services professionnels (Professional Service Firms, PSF). L’étude s’appuie sur la théorie sociologique des professions et de la légitimité pour analyser le marché de la VS. Dans cette recherche, nous nous intéressons aux stratégies de légitimation des missions de VS. Nous avons réalisé une analyse discursive de la promotion de ces missions sur les sites internet des vérificateurs. Les résultats mettent en évidence différentes stratégies de promotion de la réalisation des missions de VS visant à légitimer leurs nouvelles compétences et pouvant être apparentées à différentes formes de savoirs.

Museums have seen the universality of Wikipedia use and have started to open up their data to re-use on the Internet. This is an effort both to improve the information available to casual users and researchers and to make images and information from their holdings more accessible. In a paper originally delivered at the IFLA Art Libraries Section pre-conference in August 2014, Sylvain Machefert, a university systems librarian, describes some of his activities as a member of Wikimédia France. A project between the Centre Pompidou and Wikimédia designed to involve the art-loving public, as well as those with more expert art experience, serves as a case study. He assesses the project’s strengths and weaknesses on the basis of its outcomes. He touches on some other projects that have also contributed to the improvement of art information available through one of France’s and the world’s most popular general web services.

The article considers the importance of e-commerce in modern market conditions. E-commerce is a huge part of the whole economy and is vital for businesses that sell their products or services online. It gives businesses the ability to reach more customers than traditional retailers. Because so many people shop online, this is the fastest retail market. The main purpose of Internet marketing is revealed. Due to the high bandwidth of the information flow, the system (Internet) is the main link in the exchange of goods, services and information today. Almost all businesses in the world are focused on improving Internet connections to increase the efficiency of business. For many entrepreneurs, the Internet is the main way to spread information about their products and invitations to cooperate. The place and role of e-commerce as an effective marketing tool are substantiated. The leading countries that have achieved the greatest success in the field of e-commerce include: China, the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, France, South Korea, Canada, Brazil. According to various estimates, about 70% of the population of Ukraine uses the Internet. A year ago, this figure was 60%, ie during the pandemic, the level of Internet use increased significantly. Almost 33% of the adult population regularly shop online. This audience is growing gradually, but it is important to note that we are talking about regular online purchases. Virtually all Internet users have already had the experience of at least some online shopping. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaken economic markets and dramatically changed the daily lives of many people and companies around the world. It is difficult to find any aspect of human life that would not suffer, the corona crisis has changed the world of e-commerce. As millions of people stayed home in early 2020 to curb the spread of the virus, digital channels have become the most popular choice of replacement for crowded stores and personal shopping. Thus, e-commerce is a global phenomenon that is growing at a healthy pace in almost every country. And in a global economy and crisis, e-commerce has become one of the most important components, a strong catalyst for economic development and an effective marketing tool in today’s volatile market conditions.

In mobile networks, crowdsourcing in Quality of Experience (QoE) assessment phase involves collecting data from the user terminals or dedicated collection devices. A mobile operator or a research group may provide applications that can be run in different mobility test modes such as walk or drive tests. Crowdsourcing using users’ terminals (e.g., a smartphone) is a cheap approach for operators or researchers for addressing large scale area and may help to improve the allocated resources of a given service and/or the network provisioning in some segments. In this work, we first collect a dataset for three popular Internet services: on-demand video streaming, web browsing and file downloading at the user terminal level. We consider two user terminals from two different vendors and many mobility test modes. The dataset contains more than 220,000 measures from one of the major French mobile operators in the Île-de-France region. The measurements are effectuated for six months in 2021. Then, we implement different models from the literature for estimating the QoE in terms of user’s Mean Opinion Score (MOS) for every service using features at radio or application levels. After that, we provide an in-depth analysis of the collected dataset for detecting the root cause of poor performance. We show that the radio provisioning issues is not the only cause of detected anomalies. Finally, we discuss the prediction quality of HD video streaming service (i.e., launch time, the bitrate and the MOS) based only on the physical indicators. Our analysis is applied on both plain-text and encrypted traffic within different mobility modes.

Growth theory asserts that infrastructure investments promote economic growth by improving the quality of life and increasing private sector productivity . Transport services, water utility services and telecommunication services provide better facilities to attract FDI (foreign direct investment) and increase productivity across sectors. The aim of this article is to analyze whether transport infrastructure investments have a strong effect on the economic growth. It also attempts to analyze the differential impact of each type of infrastructural spending on economic growth. Our data set covers annual data from 1993 to 2015 period for 15 OECD countries (Austria, Turkey, Czech Republic, Spain, Finland, Japan, Germany, Ireland, Italy, France, Korea, Mexico, Netherlands, Poland, U.K) and China. In this study, we employ a Pool Mean Group (PMG) estimator to find long run and short run relations between the variables. Output elasticity of air transport is found to be positive and significant at five percent level and there exists a long run relationship between GDP per capita and other explanatory variables such as transport infrastructure indicators, gross capital formation and labor force. The crowding- out hypothesis is also supported by coefficients on county specific results. Our data set includes infrastructure variables such as Railways, (million passenger-km), Air transport, (freight, million ton-km), Individuals using the Internet (% of population).

Depuis près de deux ans et demi, les membres du bureau de la section des archivistes départementaux de l’AAF se sont attelés à un travail inédit sur la mise en ligne des instruments de recherche sur les sites Internet des Archives départementales. Une étude approfondie de ces derniers a montré une grande variété dans les fonctionnalités de recherche, l’affichage des résultats, le vocabulaire utilisé, et les aides en ligne, en partie due à la volonté des archivistes de s’adapter au mieux aux différents types d’internautes. Paradoxalement, lors d’ateliers utilisateurs organisés dans douze services volontaires, les participants ont rencontré des difficultés liées à l’hétérogénéité des sites, des menus de navigation, à l’utilisation fréquente de termes professionnels. En 2020, les Rencontres annuelles de la section des archivistes départementaux de l’AAF ont été l’occasion de partager les résultats de cette enquête. Un guide des bonnes pratiques pour la réalisation d’un site Internet est également en cours d’élaboration. Il prendra la forme de fiches thématiques. Des groupes de travail, en partenariat avec le Service interministériel des Archives de France, se sont ainsi réunis au cours de l’année pour élaborer notamment une fiche sur l’harmonisation du vocabulaire.

This paper investigates the diffusion of Japanese i-mode mobile internet in Europe from an institutional perspective, focusing on five earlier i-mode overseas operators located in Taiwan, The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, and France. We found four strategic institutional levers that stimulated i-mode domestic diffusion but failed to appear in overseas areas: operator leadership, subscriber scale, mobile penetration rate, and the ability of the firm to coordinate capability among complements. We propose strategies to internationalize a new standard by co-branding with local vendors and by using penetration pricing as an incentive for switching. Additionally, we recommend an industrial policy that drives cannibalization to facilitate mobile migration to a more advanced standard.

The article is devoted to the analysis of theoretical and legal aspects of the human right to the protection of personal data on the Internet. The author believes that at the present stage the field of personal data protection on the Internet is becoming especially important, linking it with the universal importance of communication that occurs within the Internet, as well as the threat of unauthorized dissemination of information through it. The right to the protection of personal data is considered as one of the forms of realization of the human right to the respect for his private, family life, in the context of his inviolability on the Internet. Scientific intelligence begins with a review of information protection models that have emerged in the world. Yes, we are talking about the American, European and mixed models. However, the article provides an overview of the acts adopted by the relevant European institutions in this area.
In addition, the article examines the experience of some foreign countries in ensuring the human right to the protection of personal data on the Internet, in particular Brazil, France and the Republic of Belarus. The author notes that the protection of personal data involves a number of positive and negative obligations of the state and individuals. Negative obligations are aimed at prohibiting the processing of personal data without the consent of the person to whom the specific information relates. The positive obligations of public organizations and individuals (organizations) are to comply with the established legal regime of personal data processing, including the use of appropriate technical means. That is, the author emphasizes that the legal obligations in the context of ensuring the right to protection of personal data on the Internet are imposed not only on the state, but also on Internet service providers, owners of online services and websites, etc., given the possibility that they have access to personal information.

Introduction. Telemedicine has been able to bring healthcare services to all people in far locations such as the sea. Our main objective was to overview the main features, challenges, and requirements of applying telemedicine at sea. Methods. The electronic search includes all types of papers published in English. It was performed in four databases with keywords to Feb 2023. Next, main categories were defined to extract major concepts. By mapping extracted themes, maritime telemedicine concepts were represented in two conceptual models. Results. After screening the papers based on title and abstract, 18 articles remained. They can be divided into 13 categories based on their clinical domains. Out of 18 reviewed articles, six articles were published in 2020. The greatest number of studies with five articles was conducted in France. Evidence showed that maritime telemedicine service can be provided to all kinds of ships. Regarding clinical domains, the greatest demand belonged to primary care problems (5 papers) and general health assessment (4 papers). Challenges were divided into four main categories. Moreover, the required services and equipment in four categories were described too. Finally, a conceptual model is represented for providing telemedicine services at sea using satellite Internet. Conclusion. Despite the existing challenges in providing the required equipment and resources for the implementation of maritime medicine, it has an important role in providing better care for seafarers without time limitations.

Cities are facing some of the major challenges of our time: global warming, pollution, waste management, energy efficiency. The territory of the Metropolis of Lyon, France, which brings together 59 municipalities, for a total of 1.3 million inhabitants, has launched a smart city policy aimed, among other things, at finding solutions for these issues. The data platform set up in 2013 is one of the cornerstones of this policy. In this context, the Metropolis of Lyon is deploying solutions that will enable, through the collection of new data, to implement monitoring and action tools in several fields.<br><br> As part of a European innovation project called "bIoTope", focused on the development of new services based on the Internet of Things, a multidisciplinary team is implementing a system to mitigate the effects of global warming in the city. Thanks to various connected objects allowing a true monitoring of the trees, and by using different data sources, an automatic and intelligent irrigation system is developed. In the field of waste management, several hundred containers in which the inhabitants throw away their used glass for recycling will soon be equipped with fill rate sensors. The main objective is to have this network of sensors interact easily with the container collection trucks. Expected results are an optimization of the collection, thus less fuel consumed, less noise, less traffic jam. The Metropolis of Lyon also participates in the "Smarter Together" project, focused on the development of intelligent duplicable solutions for cities, in the field of energy. A digital tool for analysing consumption and energy production at the level of a neighbourhood is currently being developed. This requires both interfaces with multiple partners, the development of a data model reflecting the reality of the terrain, from the sensors to the buildings, and the implementation of a visualization tool.

The adoption of various forms of distance education, particularly MOOCs (an acronym for Massive Open Online Courses), by universities worldwide has continuously gained momentum over the past decade. This is due not only to the importance of maintaining a parallel educational model alongside face-to-face courses in order to complete students’ training, but also in response to the limits of academic infrastructure faced with an increasingly large mass of learners, typically in emerging countries. Universities view MOOCs as a remedy to this dilemma—one which promises reasonable development costs—especially taking into account the ubiquity of the internet and digital communication tools. In a country such as Morocco, whose university capacity has been stretched to 186%, the quest to dematerialize lectures can support universities in producing well-rounded professional profiles as well as improving institutional and academic services overall. In this paper, we present the feedback from Sidi Mohammed Ben Abdellah University concerning its first scientific MOOC, launched within the framework of the MarocUniversitéNumérique (Morocco Digital University) or MUN project in collaboration with the France UniversitéNumérique (France Digital University) or FUN platform. The objectives of this paper are threefold: to assess the possibility of adopting further MOOCs in a Moroccan setting, to seek insight on the profiles of learners who have completed MOOCs and to draw lessons in order to improve future experiences.

As the digital landscape continues to evolve, nations like France find themselves on the frontline of an escalating cyber warfare scenario. This abstract provides an insightful overview of the most significant types of cyber attacks that France is expected to face in the future, offering a comprehensive analysis based on current trends and emerging technologies. The research delves into the realm of advanced persistent threats (APTs), examining the sophisticated techniques employed by state-sponsored actors and cybercriminal organizations to compromise critical infrastructure, sensitive data, and national security. It explores the evolving landscape of ransomware attacks, focusing on the potential impact on both public and private sectors, and the looming threat of extortion campaigns that could cripple essential services. Furthermore, the abstract sheds light on the rising concern of supply chain attacks, as interconnected global networks make businesses and government entities vulnerable to malicious actors seeking to exploit weaknesses in third-party systems. The research also explores the nuances of social engineering attacks, recognizing the human element as a critical vulnerability that threat actors may exploit through targeted phishing campaigns and manipulation tactics. In addition, the abstract touches upon the growing menace of Internet of Things (IoT) vulnerabilities, acknowledging the increased interconnectivity of devices and the potential for large-scale disruptions. It also considers the implications of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing in shaping the future threat landscape. By examining these diverse aspects of cyber threats, this abstract aims to provide a forward-looking perspective on the challenges France is likely to encounter in the digital realm. As Cyber security becomes an integral component of national defense, understanding these anticipated threats is crucial for policymakers, security experts, and technology professionals seeking to fortify France’s resilience against the evolving nature of cyber attacks.

The birth of the internet has resulted in a rapid increase in online shopping activities. Despite the convenience of online shopping for sellers and buyers, various problems have emerged, harming consumers. Strong consumer protection is vital because goods traded online can not directly or physically be viewed or touched. The present study explored the legal provisions concerning refund or goods replacement within the online trade contract. Jordan currently lacks a law specifically for online trade, while e-commerce in Jordan is mainly governed by three laws, namely, the Jordan Civil Law 1976, Consumer Protection Law 2017, and Electronic Transactions Law 2015. E-commerce laws in the United Kingdom, France, Indonesia, and Malaysia were analyzed and compared with relevant Jordanian laws to examine the topics of refund and goods replacement in online trade contracts. Jordanian legal systems have been insufficient in guaranteeing consumers’ right to obtain refunds, goods, or services replacement from the provider or seller in online trade. Jordan thus needs to set up a special law on online trade that also legally covers matters of refunds and goods replacement.

Despite the gap between Ukraine and the European Union in the general development of the economy and various state institutions, our state is gradually approaching the advanced countries of Europe in terms of the prevalence and availability of digital web services. In the matter of finding out the main trends of Internet technologies, the annual reports of the Kepios company, whose founder is Simon Kemp, the chief analyst of DataReportal, are authoritative for international corporations. Another report called “DIGITAL 2022: UKRAINE” says that in January 2022 there were about 31.10 million Internet users in Ukraine. The level of Internet penetration at the beginning of the year was 71.8% of the total population. For comparison, this indicator is 93% in Germany, 93% in France, 98% in Switzerland, 88% in Romania, 87% in Poland, and 92% in the USA. However, even under the difficult economic and political conditions in which Ukraine currently finds itself, it has a large number of projects related to digitalization. At the same time, taking into account Ukraine’s desire to become a member of the EU, European countries are promoting the use of digital technologies in the economy of our country in every possible way. So, in our time, the process of digitalization of the economy is gaining momentum. Based on the essence of the phenomenon of the digital economy, its formation is directly related to the modernization and application of information and communication technologies, for which the Internet and various gadgets are the basis. Thus, in the article, the authors describe digitization as a complex economic process of radical transformation of the economies of the world. At the same time, attention was drawn to EU initiatives aimed at the implementation of information technologies in the spheres of business and state management. The impact of the large-scale economic shocks that Ukraine has experienced in recent years on the e-commerce sphere was also considered.

Digital discourse, often referred to as computer-mediated communication, has revolutionized communication practices since the advent of the personal computer (Crystal, 2011), with ever-growing effects, as smart devices proliferate in every aspect of twenty-first-century human existence. Linguists in the francophone world first took note of these new digital interactional practices in the 1980s with the onset of conversation via Minitel (Levy, 1993), a French-born service that consisted of a computer terminal that connected via telephone lines to remote services like chatrooms, interactive games, and purchasing platforms, years before most Americans had ever heard of the world wide web (Mailland, 2017). Minitel terminals remained functional some 30 years later; the service was ultimately decommissioned in 2012 on account of outdated modems, an inability to support advancements in graphics and the earlier mass migration (in France and beyond) to the present-day internet (Mailland, 2017). But the introduction of virtual interactional spaces – in the francophone world and beyond – had marked the beginning of a new linguistic trend in which users found themselves regularly engaged in the production of written language infused with vernacular tendencies.

BackgroundMass media campaigns to encourage smoking cessation have been shown to be effective in a context of comprehensive tobacco control programme. The effectiveness of antismoking ads that evoke negative emotions remains unclear, in particular in countries with high smoking prevalence and among smokers with low perceived susceptibility, low self-efficacy or who are not users of smoking cessation services.ObjectiveTo evaluate short-term and long-term effects of a 1-month French national highly emotional media campaign, with a focus on these specific targets.DesignA 6-month longitudinal survey by Internet. A sample of 3000 smokers were interviewed before the media campaign (T0). They were contacted again just after (T1) and 6 months after the campaign (T2).OutcomesPerceived susceptibility to the risks of smoking, self-efficacy to quit smoking, use of smoking cessation services (quitline and website) and 7-day quitting.MethodsThe analysis was carried out on 2241 individuals who answered at T1 and T2. Multiple logistic regressions were computed to test the association between the change in each outcome at T1 and T2 and the level of exposure based on self-reported recall.ResultsSelf-reported recall was associated with an increase in perceived susceptibility and with use of cessation services. Campaign recall was also associated with higher 7-day quitting immediately after the campaign (OR=1.8 (1.0 to 3.2), P<0.05).ConclusionsFear-appeal mass media campaigns can be effective in encouraging cessation among smokers in a country with high smoking prevalence (France), but should be accompanied by convincing self-efficacy messages.

Abstract The implementation of bancassurance activity in the banking field contributes to the strengthening of the competitive environment, the development of new products in insurance and the higher satisfaction of the consumer's needs. The strategic priorities of banks are to increase business protection by adding new products to their portfolios, according customer's needs. The distribution of insurance in the bancassurance system is a future solution and will continue to develop on the Romanian market as well. Bancassurance is the main distribution channel in many countries, accounting for more than 50% of life insurance products (eg France, Italy, Spain, Austria), in Portugal the share goes up to 80% and in Romania is around 30%. Among the aspects needed to develop this service, bank representatives propose both the diversification of types of insurance sold through banks, as well as the growth of consumer financial education development and digitalization. This paper aims to highlight different perspectives to relaunch bancassurance activity according to changes from customer behavior and the identification of factors which contributing to the sustainability of bancassurance in digital environment. In addition, will be presented a comparison of the internet penetration rate in the world, the categories of clients using online banking services.

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) also known as Industry 4.0, consists of industries that utilize IoTs to facilitate logistics, manufacturing, transportation, oil and gas, energy/utilities, mining and metals, aviation, and others. Though a lot of companies have proceeded into a lot of areas utilizing IIoT, its applicability in a lot of is still not explored and remains unpredictable. Its evolution is similar to that of the Internet in the early 90s, where it initially appeared and slowly gained momentum in the 20th century to almost becoming and indispensable aspect of human life in the 21st century. Robotics and control are already a part of most of the manufacturing companies, however, when it comes to real-time applications in manufacturing, IIoT may not come to the rescue. Another aspect that separates the internet and IIoT is that the internet is based on the bet effort delivery model which is acceptable for e-commerce and man-machine interactions. However, failures in an IIoT scenario such as air-traffic monitoring, automated manufacturing can have serious consequences. Industry 4.0 is an initiative taken up by industries to use IoT in industries and many such initiatives have been taken up by different companies and countries. For example, GE has already invested $1billion to improve its asset performance and business operation by using IIoT services. Germany has started an initiative called “Industry 4.0”, a strategic initiative that brought together leaders from private and public sectors as well as from academia to create a detailed plan of action for incorporating digital technologies into German industries. Other countries such as Italy, Netherlands, and France have invested in setting up smart factories and industries. China has also started a project called “Made in China 2025” to integrate digital technologies and industrialization. A major hindrance in adopting IIoT is that the smart devices often speak different “languages” that existing industrial automation software uses, which creates a communication gap, and hence standardization is necessary. Overcoming such bottlenecks and adopting IIoT can help automate the production techniques, for instance, manufacturers could increase their productivity by a margin of 30%. The capabilities of IIoT can be explored in areas such as sensor driven computing, industrial analytics, and intelligent machine applications. The main aim of this topic is to explain various applications inf IoT in industries.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore how variables like propensity to trust, website usability, social influence, customer awareness about internet-only banks (IOBs) and perceived compatibility influence customers’ initial trust formation toward IOBs’ acceptance. The model is based on the technology acceptance model, diffusion of innovation theory and theory of reasoned action. Design/methodology/approach A non-probability convenience sample of 239 IOBs’ potential adopters from France was used to test the structural equation model between initial trust antecedents and IOB’s usage intention. Findings Findings confirm the important role of trust in initiating customers’ relationship with IOBs and show that social influence, compatibility and website usability contribute the most to IOB’s initial trust formation. Indeed, it has been found that the level of consumer information about IOBs and propensity to trust have a moderate impact on consumer’s initial trust. Results revealed that there is a general lack of consumer’s awareness about IOB’s services features. Practical implications To promote the trustworthiness of their sites and services to potential consumers, IOBs should enhance WOM by using social network applications. IOBs need to develop marketing communication campaigns in which they can educate potential customers about IOB’s features. In addition, IOBs should demonstrate to their customers that IOBs’ banking system is consistent with their current lifestyle. IOBs are encouraged to develop a favorable impression by investing heavily on their website usability and information design. Originality/value This study contributes significantly to the marketing research literature related to consumer trust and electronic banking literature. Indeed, only a few marketing studies have been conducted about IOBs. The results show the role played by initial trust formation in the case of IOBs. In addition, it points out the importance of five trust cues: individual cues, knowledge cues, institutional cues, cognitive cues and social cues (social influence).

IntroductionIn Ireland, HIV infection predominantly occurs among men who have sex with men (MSM). Combination prevention approaches, including pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), are recommended to reduce the risk of acquiring HIV. We used the 2015 MSM Internet Survey Ireland (MISI), a large-scale community survey among adult MSM in Ireland, to estimate the proportion of MISI respondents eligible for PrEP.MethodsWe applied PrEP eligibility criteria from France to MISI variables. Where exact criteria could not be applied, the most similar form was used. French PrEP eligibility criteria include HIV negative MSM or transgender adults who had at least one of the following: condomless anal sex (CAI) with ≥2 different partners in the past six months; episodes of STIs in the past 12 months; used multiple post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) treatment(s) or used drugs during sex.ResultsMISI included 3,045 MSM aged 18–64 years; 2,870(94%) were HIV negative or never HIV tested. In the past 12 months, 370(12%) reported CAI with ≥2 non-steady partners; 243(8%) reported an STI diagnosis and 181(6%) used drugs associated with chemsex. Four percent (n=119) were treated with PEP. Overall, 23% [95%CI(22–25)] of MISI respondents are eligible for PrEP.DiscussionAn estimated one in four MISI respondents met French PrEP eligibility criteria. Applying this estimate to the MSM population in Ireland, taking study limitations, those engaged in services and assumed PrEP uptake into account, would enable calculation of the number of MSM eligible for PrEP. This estimate will be useful for informing PrEP policy in Ireland.

The classification of innovations in tourism according to the object of their application is given. The main directions of using innovative marketing technologies in the field of tourism services are considered: release of new types of tourism product, change in the organization of production and consumption, identification and use of new markets, as well as the use of new equipment and technology. Factors that accelerate the introduction of marketing innovations are studied. Based on the analysis of world experience, several models of regulation of innovative tour operating activities in the EU have been identified. The first direction of formation of the model of the innovations development in tourism is the activity of stimulating innovations in the public and private sectors of tourism with the aim of their transition to a qualitatively new model of touring (similar model is used in Greece, Italy and Portugal). The second direction is defined as the internationalization and opening of new markets (a similar model of stimulating innovative development is typical of Spain, Romania and partly Norway). The third one includes support for entrepreneurship in the field of tourism, stimulation of entrepreneurial initiatives, opening a new tourism business (A similar model of stimulating innovation in tourism is typical of many countries in Europe, Australia, New Zealand). The fourth direction is the promotion of the country, its tourism product, including educational and cultural ones (A similar model is typical of Bulgaria, Croatia, Spain, Turkey, Thailand). The role of introduction and active development of e-business and marketing technologies is defined, especially in modern conditions. The necessity of development of the newest directions of the Internet marketing in the field of tourism, including mobile, Internet branding and geomarketing, is proved. The role of innovative marketing technologies as one of the central elements of modern development of activity of tourist firms, the necessity of application of computer technologies and non-standard ways of giving of the information during carrying out modern technical maintenance, are justified. The first group of such technological solutions consists of management technologies, including property management system (PMS), aimed at optimization of basic technological operations. The modern hotels and chains are trying to present themselves not only in global distribution system (GDS), which has become a powerful advertising tool, but also in alternative distribution system (ADS), which is primarily needed by hotels focused on the business segment. Global distribution system (GDS) is also closely integrated into well-known booking systems such as Booking.com, HRS, Agoda, Travelocity, Expedia etc. The next group is for food and beverages inventory management technology (F&B). The group of marketing technologies includes search engine optimization measures (SEO and PPC), which allow to raise the hotel site in search engine rankings, E-mail Marketing as a means of maintaining constant communication with the client, marketing activities in social media (Social Media Optimization), creation of virtual hotels or illusions of visiting a hotel (Second Life and Virtual Hotels Conclusion), branding, etc. The last group of technologies are service ones, i.e. technologies for improving hotel products and services. Innovative technologies are developing in the direction of ensuring sustainable development (greening of hotel services and activities), inclusion in traditional technological operations of innovative components: electronic concierge terminals, access to hotel services via mobile devices, maximizing Internet access, etc. Based on the analysis of the activities of large tour operators, regional differences have been identified in Turkey, Greece, Croatia, Spain, Austria, Norway and France. It is proved that marketing innovations in tourism have a qualitative novelty, which affects the promising areas of tourism development, improvement of existing tourism products, improving the image and competitiveness of the tourism industry. Based on the study, it is generalized that the role of marketing innovations in international tourism has been growing every year, and it has become especially relevant in the conditions of the COVID-19 crisis. For travel companies, the effect of marketing innovation can be expressed in the qualitatively new changes in the tourism industry, improving the efficiency of tourism infrastructure, management of sustainable operation and development of tourism in the country and the formation, positioning and consumption of tourism services, improving the image and competitiveness of travel companies.

The subject of this research is the forecast or prediction of color. The Russian science does not feature work dedicated to such aspect; however, foreign sources approached prediction of color from various perspectives, most often viewing the color trends as an inseparable part of fashion. The goal of this work consists in determination of the place and time of conception of the color forecasts, historical analysis of evolution of this phenomenon, and assumptions on further development of this direction. Territorially, the epicenters of development of color forecasts are determined in Europe (France and England), in America (the United States), in Asia (Japan). The author describes the peculiarities of color predictions in each country – at certain stages one or another county was ahead or behind; whit the advent of the Internet, everything moves to online format and becomes more dynamic. The article follows the forecast of color since its emergence, highlighting all stages of its development and establishment. The chronological framework of its development stages stretches from the early XVIII century until modernity. From the earliest to more recent, these stages include the color cards, mediators and agents (between factories, textile workers and customers, and stores), trade fairs and expositions, online services and websites. It is determined that with the course of time, the methods and instruments for predicting color were being accumulated and used together; the new colors were added, while the already existing did not lose their relevance. Despite the development of technologies, a final word in forecasting color trends belongs to a human, based on experience and intuition.

A retail business is a business selling products and services that have been added to meet the needs of individuals, families or other end users. Retail business in Indonesia is divided into 2 groups, namely traditional retail and modern retail. Modern retail is basically a development of traditional retail. Retail business does not always have to be done in a shop, but can also be done via telephone or internet, also called retail or non-shop retail. The characteristics of a traditional retail business are simple, the place is not too large, the goods sold are not too many type, the management or management system is still simple, does not offer shopping convenience and there is still a process of haggling over prices with traders, and the products sold are not displayed openly, so customers do not know whether the retailer has the goods they are looking for or not. Meanwhile, modern retail businesses On the contrary, it offers a spacious place, there are many types of goods sold, the management system is well managed, offers shopping convenience, the selling price is fixed (fixed price), so there is no bargaining process and there is a self-service or self-service system, as well as displays products on open shelves, so customers can see, choose, and even try products first before deciding to buy. Of all the retail companies, there is one large company that also dominates the retail business currently, namely Carrefour. Carrefour is an international supermarket group, headquartered in France. Carrefour is the second largest retail group after Wal-Mart. The first Carrefour store opened on June 3, 1957, in Annecy near an intersection

<p>This empirical paper explores trends in innovation activities measured by a countries’ total patent application submission intensity relative to its population, and by analyzing U.S. granted patents data for cohorts of developed countries and developing countries. In addition to tabular and graphical analyses, I use a baseline regression model and a variant model thereof to assess the relative influence of a set of aggregate variables on innovation activities in eight manufacturing industries across two cohorts of countries (developed and developing) where each cohort contains eight individual countries. Eight industries included in this study are: Chemical, Petroleum, electrical and electronics equipment, machinery, pharmaceutical, plastic, computer, and textile. The cohort of developed countries includes Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Italy, Poland, Switzerland, and the United States. The cohort of developing countries includes Brazil, China, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Russia, South Africa, and Turkey. Per regression results, ethnic diversity is a statistically significant positive determinant of innovation for all industry aggregate patent count for both high income and developing countries. Also, per capita electricity usage, R&D expenditure as percent of GDP, and percent of population with internet access are three positive factors of innovation irrespective of industrial subsectors and position of a country in the development echelon. Interestingly, impact of ICT-services export is statistically significant and innovation boosting in developing countries in the cohort relative to countries in the cohort of developed countries. It also appears that trade openness served as a stronger stimulant of innovation activities for developing countries’ but not as much for the cohort of developed or high-income countries. This paper attempts to extend the literature on cross-country comparison of innovation activities by using two measures of innovation activities across developed and developing countries, and by analyzing both aggregate and sector-level data for eight manufacturing industries both graphically and utilizing panel regression models. </p>

Taking into account the demographic situation in Ukraine, the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) is an urgent task for increasing access to modern, expensive methods of infertility treatment.
The aim of this study was to summarize the legislative requirements for the implementation of ART, the number of cycles, depending on the type, and the costs for ART in the leading countries of the world and in Ukraine. We showed, that most countries in Europe have budgetary financing for a certain number of cycles, while the medical restrictions and age requirements for parents are included. It was revealed that the highest costs for ART are in the USA, the lowest in Japan and Scandinavian countries.
We calculated the rate of provision for IVF and ICSI cycles per 1 million population (Kart) and the countries were ranked into 3 groups. It was shown that Ukraine belongs to countries with a low indicator ‒ less than 500 cycles. Leading countries of Europe, which have government funding for ART (France, Germany, Sweden), are characterized by a high Kart. The need to increase budgetary financing for ART in Ukraine is shown.
The cost analysis for ART according to official websites of private clinics was conducted in Ukraine. We established that the average cost per 1 cycle of IVF was 52 584 UAH, for 1 cycle of ICSI was 6 694 UAH. The calculated solvency adequacy ratio for IVF was 703, it indicates a low availability for the population, and for ICSI is 89, which in 7.9 more affordable for families.
It was found that in 7 clinics there are no Internet pages, and on the websites of 12 clinics information on the cost of services is shown, without taking into account the use of drugs in the protocols of ART. According to the different approaches to informing on websites of the ART clinics, it is advisable to unify the information providing on the sites about the availability of cycles and the total costs for them to improve provision and access for patients. Therefore, it is important to increase the state funding for ART programs.

The article presents a systematization of distinctions in the converging technologies state policy implemented by foreign countries. NBIC convergence represents a source of a new direction in economic growth, as well as new regional development risks, which require the elaboration of appropriate government policy instruments at all its levels. The authors conclude that effective regional or national innovation policy measures can act as triggers that result in enterprises and scientific organizations entering into a converging technological innovation process, which allow them to take advantage of new emerging markets and industry conditions. In this process, regional or national authorities can play an important role in improving the basic conditions for companies and research institutions in their search for possible application areas, as well as giving them an access to information about modern methods assessing the opportunities and risks associated with converging technologies. The article analyzes the problems and restrictions that enterprises and organizations face on the way to the implementation of NBIC technologies (for example, the lack of specific information about new market opportunities for implementing converging technologies, search and association with new partners outside the sectors where companies operate, etc.) The authors propose directions for the regional specific features analysis, which allow elaborating territorial development programs for implementing converging technologies. Statistical analysis of the digital technologies usage in Russia and cross-country comparison by these indicators carried out by the authors allow concluding that the importance of ICT in the national economy is constantly increasing. The ICT role in building internal business and information interaction between companies and partners is becoming especially important for Russian companies. The level of distribution of cloud services in Russian organizations is comparable to the average for the EU countries. In this area Russia is ahead of France, Germany, and Austria. The industries with the best digitalization rates include the financial sector, retail and communications. At the same time, there remains a significant gap between the achieved level of ICT penetration in Russia and the countries that lead in the broadband Internet access availability, presence in the networks, and the use of information systems.

TOURISM: Tourism is the movement of people to destinations outside their usual environment for various reasons, including leisure, business, or other purposes. These visitors' activities, known as the visitor economy, can have a significant impact on the visited locations economically, socially, and culturally. This can involve enjoying recreational activities, relaxation, and pleasure, often with the help of established businesses offering services and experiences. Tourism is a multifaceted and dynamic industry that has evolved significantly over the years. It encompasses the movement of people to destinations outside their usual environment for personal or recreational purposes, contributing substantially to the global economy and generating employment opportunities and income for millions. The tourism industry can be broadly categorized into two primary types: international tourism, where tourists travel to foreign lands, and domestic tourism, where tourists explore their own country. The most frequently visited countries by international tourists include France, Spain, the United States, China, Italy, Turkey, Mexico, and the United Kingdom. Tourism serves as a crucial industry, providing employment and income to millions of people worldwide and contributing significantly to the economies of various nations. The steady rise in popularity of tourism since the 1950s can be attributed to advancements in technology, the proliferation of the internet, the increasing availability of paid vacations, demographic changes, and media exposure. The tourism life cycle, proposed by Professor Richard Butler, consists of four stages: initial discovery, growth, decline, and regeneration. This model helps us understand the pattern of popularity that tourist destinations follow. Tourism is not limited to leisure activities; it also includes business tourism, cultural travel, environmental effects of aviation, international tourism advertising, medical tourism, and science tourism, among others. The United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) plays a crucial role in promoting responsible, sustainable, and universally accessible tourism, providing statistics and insights on key indicators for inbound and outbound tourism globally. In conclusion, tourism is a complex and multifaceted industry that has a significant impact on the global economy and local communities. It encompasses various forms, including international and domestic tourism, and serves as a crucial source of employment and income for millions of people worldwide.

BackgroundTelemedicine (TM) is an effective tool to supplement rheumatology care and address staff shortages [1]. A previous study revealed that patients’ willingness to try TM is closely connected to their perceived health status [2]. Yet, it is still unclear which factors are associated with patients’ motivation to use TM according to the perceived health status.ObjectivesThe study aimed to identify factors that determine patients’ willingness to try TM (TM-try) and their wish that their rheumatologists offer TM services (TM-wish) according to their perceived health status.MethodsWe conducted a secondary analysis of data from a German nationwide cross-sectional survey among patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs) [3]. Bayesian univariate logistic regression analysis was applied to the data in order to determine which factors were associated with TM-try and TM-wish, respectively. Predictor variables (covariates) studied individually included sociodemographic factors (e.g., age, sex) and health characteristics (e.g., health status). All the variables positively and negatively associated with TM-try and TM-wish in the univariate analyses were then considered for Bayesian model averaging analysis (BMA) after a selection based on the variance inflation factor (≤ 2.5) to identify determinants of TM-try and TM-wish, respectively.ResultsRegarding TM-try, a total of 26 (30.6%) and 45 (27.1%) variables/factors (answers to the 25 questions), out of 85, were found to be positively or negatively associated (ROPE% ≤ 5%) with a perceived okay and bad/very bad health statuses, respectively. Regarding TM-wish, a total of 14 (16.5%) variables/factors (answers to the 25 questions), out of 85, were found to be positively or negatively associated for both a perceived okay and bad/very bad health statuses, respectively. A total of 19 and 13 determinant factors (Figure 1) were identified for TM-try and TM-wish, respectively. Patients with a perceived bad/very bad health status that did not want to try TM were more frequently 60-69 years old, living 10-15 km from the GP’s office, being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and had more often less TM knowledge than patients wanting to try TM. Patients with a perceived bad/very bad health status that did wish that TM services were offered by rheumatologist were more frequently older, not documenting their health status and more being diagnosed with osteoporosis than patients wishing that TM services were offered by RM.ConclusionOur results indicate that RMD knowledge, age, RMD type, health status documentation and access to technical equipment and infrastructure influence RMD patients’ motivation to use telehealth.References[1]Miloslavsky EM, Bolster MB.

Abstract
Objective – To examine the attitudes and information behaviours of early career researchers (ECRs) when locating scholarly information.
Design – Qualitative longitudinal study.
Setting – Research participants from the United Kingdom, United States of America, China, France, Malaysia, Poland, and Spain.
Subjects – A total 116 participants from various disciplines, aged 35 and younger, who were holding or had previously held a research position, but not in a tenured position. All participants held a doctorate or were in the process of earning one.
Methods – Using structured interviews of 60-90 minutes, researchers asked 60 questions of each participant via face-to-face, Skype, or telephone interviews. The interview format and questions were formed via focus groups.
Main Results – As part of a longitudinal project, results reported are limited to the first year of the study, and focused on three primary questions identified by the authors: where do ECRs find scholarly information, whether they use their smartphones to locate and read scholarly information, and what social media do they use to find scholarly information. Researchers describe how ECRs themselves interpreted the phrase scholarly information to primarily mean journal articles, while the researchers themselves had a much expanded definition to include professional and “scholarly contacts, ideas, and data” (p. 22).
This research shows that Google and Google Scholar are widely used by ECRs for locating scholarly information regardless of discipline, language, or geography. Their analysis by country points to currency and the combined breadth-and-depth search experience that Google provides as prime reasons for the popularity of Google and Google Scholar. Of particular interest is the popularity and use of Google Scholar in China, where it is officially blocked but accessed by ECRs via proxy services. Other general indexes, such as Web of Science and Scopus, are also popular but not universally used by ECRs, and regional differences again point to pros and cons of these services. Some specialized services are emphasized, including regional tools such as the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, as well as certain broad disciplinary resources, such as PubMed for its coverage of sciences and biomedical information.
Researchers report that ECRs participating in this study were less concerned about how they gained access to full-text scholarly information, only that they could access full-text sources. In particular, ECRs do not take much notice of libraries and their platforms, seemingly unaware of the steps libraries take to acquire and ensure access to scholarly information, while viewing physical libraries themselves primarily as study spaces for undergraduate students and not places for the ECR to visit or work. While ECRs occasionally acknowledge library portals and login interfaces, researchers found that these participants mostly ignored these, and that they found discovery services to be confusing or difficult.
Concerning social media use, participants identified 11 different platforms used but only ResearchGate was mentioned and used by participants from all seven countries represented. Social media tends to be used directly for keeping track of research trends and opinions and also the work specific researchers are publishing, and indirectly when referred to sites such as ResearchGate to find full-text of a specific article. Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are used occasionally or moderately, but not universally. Researchers highlight regional differences of social media use in China, where ECRs are more likely to connect with other researchers and receive notifications when those researchers publish.
The study reports limited information ECRs’ use of smartphones for information seeking. About half of ECR participants reported use of their smartphone for discovering scholarly sources. The advantage smartphones provide includes near-ubiquitous Internet access and therefore the ability to access scholarly materials on the go, though ECRs are less likely to download or read full-text articles via their smartphones. The rate of adoption of smartphone use for scholarly materials varies by country.
Conclusion – Early career researchers access scholarly information in a wide variety of ways, with Google and Google Scholar as the preferred starting location, and with social media also proving useful. Ease-of-use and full-text availability are paramount concerns; the spread of open access materials helps fuel the availability of materials, and Google makes these easy to find. Though physical libraries are perceived to be of limited use, the digital access they provide to full-text scholarly sources is still vital even if ECRs do not make the connection between having that important access and the fact that libraries act as buyers and providers of access

Purpose: The main reason to do the research of consumption of society in Europe is the ever- increasing consumption, not sorting enough, which leads to problems on a global scale. Responsible consumption can be described as the behaviors and attitudes of the consumers to consume or less consume products and services that have the potential to directly or indirectly harm to society, economy, the world, and all living and nonliving things. The aim of the paper is to investigate the habits and causes of responsible consumption in Europe. Design/methodology/approach: Analysis of research literature sources, systematization, synthesis, generalization, quantitative research and data processing methods was used. The collected empirical data were processed using the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) program. In the data processing, descriptive statistics was used, such as percentiles, mean, mode and standard deviation. Research was done using an online questionnaire. The questionnaire was compiled by the authors, based on the scientific literature. In the research, respondents participated from Lithuania (373 respondents) and other European countries (444 respondents from Latvia, Poland, Italy, United Kingdom, Germany, Bulgaria, France). Findings: Results showed that the main reason why people choose to consume responsibly are taking care of their own and their family's well-being and a sense of responsibility for what is happening in the world. The results of the study revealed that, in principle, the respondents who took part in the survey consume quite responsibly, but do not volunteer much and participate in community activities.
