Corporate Digital Responsibility New Challenges to the Social Sciences

Małgorzata Suchacka

International Journal of Research in E-learning IJREL > 2019 > 5 > 1 > 5-20

Contemporary practitioners and scientists more and more frequently highlight the extraordinarily rapid process of implementation of new technologies – including those based on artificial intelligence – and unpredictable consequences of such actions. Therefore, it is important to be an active participant in the debate on the relation between human and modern technologies, a debate based on interdisciplinary...

Perceived usefulness of innovative technology in retailing: Consumers׳ and retailers׳ point of view

Sanda Renko, Mirna Druzijanic, S. Renko, M. Druzijanic

Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services > 2014 > 21 > 5 > 836-843

Technology has always played important role in retailing. On one hand, technology enables retailers to improve their services to customers, to improve their management operations and reduce their cost as well. On the other hand, technology brings some benefits to consumers related to short lines at checkouts, higher speed in providing services in the store, no pricing errors, loyalty card programmes,...

Cesar C. Navarrete, C.C. Navarrete

Computers & Education > 2013 > 69 > Complete > 320-331

In a case study on middle-school student educational game creation course in south central US state, the students' creative thinking process is investigated in order to understand perceptions of the digital design and programming involved in the game creation learning approach. Interviewing 12 students at with three different levels of game design experience, students in grade 6, 7 and 8, with 1,...

Philosophical perspectives on technology in Chinese Society

Nan Wang, N. Wang

Technology in Society > 2013 > 35 > 3 > 165-171

In developing countries today, social attitudes toward technology exhibit a more positive appreciation than is often the case in the developed world. Technology is seen as fundamentally good because of its ability simultaneously to reduce the burden of human labor and to increase productivity. In developing countries, many of the unintended negative side effects of technological development are not...

Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging and MR-guided bone biopsy on a 0.23 T open imager

Parkkola, Mattila, Heikkil, Ekfors, more

Skeletal Radiology > 2001 > 30 > 11

Abstract. Objective: To assess the feasibility of MR (magnetic resonance)-guided bone biopsies. Design and patients: Thirty-six consecutive patients with known or suspected benign or malignant bone lesions underwent comprehensive MR imaging. A dynamic contrast-enhanced sequence followed by stationary T1-weighted sequences were obtained and MR-guided bone biopsy of the tumor at the site with fastest...

CRISPR: development of a technology and its applications

W. Brent Derry

The FEBS Journal > 288 > 2 > 358 - 359

CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) is a prokaryotic immune surveillance system that is used by bacteria to recognize genetic material of infectious organisms, such as phage viruses. Using CRISPR‐associated (Cas) proteins, this system cleaves foreign nucleic acid into fragments, thus defending the bacterium against the attacker. The 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was...

Toward a Multifaceted Heuristic of Digital Reading to Inform Assessment, Research, Practice, and Policy

Julie Coiro

Reading Research Quarterly > 56 > 1 > 9 - 31

In this commentary, the author explores the tension between almost 30 years of work that has embraced increasingly complex conceptions of digital reading and recent studies that risk oversimplifying digital reading as a singular entity analogous with reading text on a screen. The author begins by tracing a line of theoretical and empirical work that both informs and complicates our understanding of...

Social Isolation and Loneliness Among San Francisco Bay Area Older Adults During the COVID‐19 Shelter‐in‐Place Orders

Ashwin A. Kotwal, Julianne Holt‐Lunstad, Rebecca L. Newmark, Irena Cenzer, more

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society > 69 > 1 > 20 - 29

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Physical distancing during the COVID‐19 pandemic may have unintended, detrimental effects on social isolation and loneliness among older adults. Our objectives were to investigate (1) experiences of social isolation and loneliness during shelter‐in‐place orders, and (2) unmet health needs related to changes in social interactions. DESIGN Mixed‐methods longitudinal phone‐based...

Dislocating contested space: resource competition, cultural technologies and migrant space in Milan’s Chinatown

Kevin Latham

Social Anthropology > 28 > 4 > 944 - 960

This paper explores the need to understand the cultural aspects of the production of space and the use of communications technologies in the Chinatown area of Milan, Italy, centred on Via Paolo Sarpi just to the northeast of the city centre. I argue that although we can understand some aspects of this space and Chinese migrants’ production of it in terms of the history of Chinese, largely Wenzhounese,...

The use of artificial intelligence and robotics in regional anaesthesia

M. McKendrick, S. Yang, G. A. McLeod

Anaesthesia > 76 > S1 > 171 - 181

The current fourth industrial revolution is a distinct technological era characterised by the blurring of physics, computing and biology. The driver of change is data, powered by artificial intelligence. The UK National Health Service Topol Report embraced this digital revolution and emphasised the importance of artificial intelligence to the health service. Application of artificial intelligence...

Novel approaches to needle tracking and visualisation

G. A. McLeod

Anaesthesia > 76 > S1 > 160 - 170

The accuracy and reliability of ultrasound are still insufficient to guarantee complete and safe nerve block for all patients. Injection of local anaesthetic close to, but not touching, the nerve is key to outcomes, but the exact relationship between the needle tip and nerve epineurium is difficult to evaluate, even with ultrasound. Ultrasound has insufficient resolution, tissues are difficult to...

Contemporary training methods in regional anaesthesia: fundamentals and innovations

R. R. Ramlogan, A. Chuan, E. R. Mariano

Anaesthesia > 76 > S1 > 53 - 64

Over the past two decades, regional anaesthesia and medical education as a whole have undergone a renaissance. Significant changes in our teaching methods and clinical practice have been influenced by improvements in our theoretical understanding as well as by technological innovations. More recently, there has been a focus on using foundational education principles to teach regional anaesthesia,...

Gains from resistance: rejection of a new digital technology in a healthcare sector workplace

Elena Shulzhenko, Jens Holmgren

New Technology, Work and Employment > 35 > 3 > 276 - 296

The issue of spaces for non‐organised employee resistance has attracted renewed attention due to the diffusion of new digital technologies in the workplace. The ability of new technologies to measure and restrict employee behaviour in new ways requires explanations of resistance that account for both technology’s material characteristics and employee agency, without descending into technological determinism...

Anesthesia in the modern world of apps and technology: Implications and impact on wellness

Calvin Lo, Julie Yu, Matthias Görges, Clyde Matava, more

Pediatric Anesthesia > 31 > 1 > 31 - 38

Recent decades have seen an unprecedented leap in digital innovation, with far‐reaching implications in healthcare. Anesthesiologists have historically championed the adoption of new technologies. However, the rapid evolution of these technologies has outpaced attempts at studying their potential impact on healthcare providers' well‐being. This document introduces several categories of workplace technologies...

Seeing from Below: Scuba Diving and the Regressive Cyborg

Justin Raycraft

Anthropology and Humanism > 45 > 2 > 301 - 321

This article reimagines scuba diving as a form of ethnographic immersion that allows humans to experience life on earth from an underwater perspective. I argue that scuba divers are both posthuman in their cyborgian transcendence of the basic limitations of our species and prehuman in their metaphorical regression into womb‐like oceans, from which all life on earth evolved. I conceptualize divers...
