Problematic use of the internet as a predictor of oral health-related quality of life: the mediating role of lifestyles in Peruvian schoolchildren

BackgroundThe pervasiveness of the Internet in everyday life, especially among young people, has raised concerns about its effects on mental health, education, and, recently, oral health. Previous research has suggested a complex relationship between Problematic Internet Use (PIU), lifestyles, and oral health-related quality of life, highlighting the need to examine these interactions further. This study seeks to explore the PIU as a predictor of oral health-related quality of life and examine the mediating role of lifestyles between both in a sample of Peruvian schoolchildren.MethodsA cross-sectional study was carried out with 293 Peruvian students aged 12 to 17 years (M = 14.42, SD = 1.5), using structural equations to analyze the relationship between PIU, lifestyles, and quality of life related to oral health. The data collection procedure was through a face-to-face survey. Validated instruments measured PIU, lifestyles, and oral health-related quality of life. The study’s theoretical model was analyzed through structural equation modeling with the MLR estimator. The fit assessment was performed using the comparative fit index (CFI), root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA), and standardized root mean square residual (SRMR).ResultsThey indicated significant correlations between PIU, lifestyles, and oral health-related quality of life. A negative influence of PIU on lifestyles (β = -0.30, p < .001) and on oral health-related quality of life (β = -0.35, p < .001) was observed, as well as a positive relationship between PIU and oral health-related quality of life (β = 0.29, p < .001). The mediation of lifestyles was statistically significant, suggesting that they mediate the relationship between PIU and oral health-related quality of life.ConclusionsThe study confirms that PIU can negatively affect adolescents’ oral health-related quality of life, mediated by unhealthy lifestyles. It underlines the importance of promoting balanced Internet use and healthy lifestyles among young people to improve their oral well-being.

Parents' Strategy in Developing Adolescents' Attitudes in Using the Internet in Muara Megang Musi Rawas Village

Social media is a place to share information and communication for Indonesian people. Things that cannot be separated from life and almost every moment cannot be separated from smartphones. Smartphones have positive and negative impacts that are felt by the public. Apart from that, technology can also make work easier, but the negative impacts of technology are the rise of kidnapping, pornography, rape, drugs and prostitution transactions. This research aims to analyze parents' strategies for cultivating wise attitudes in using the internet in Muara Megang Musi Rawas village from research. This research uses a qualitative method with an approach based on facts in the field. We conducted this research, making the researcher the instrument who will later conduct interviews, observations and documentation as the basis for this research. that poor use of the internet has a very negative impact on the daily character of teenagers and that is why parents need to educate their children well in using the internet, including providing education about the bad impacts of bad actions and supervising their use of the internet in everyday life. . By providing education to teenagers about how to use the internet safely and responsibly. This includes explaining dangers such as cyberbullying, online fraud, and inappropriate content. Parents can also set limits on internet use, this includes time limits, the type of content that can be accessed, and the devices that can be used and provide examples for teenagers in using the internet where parents must show teenagers how to use the internet in a positive and positive way. productive.

THE PREFERENCES OF CHOOSING TAXI-HAILING MODE ATTRIBUTES THROUGH THE BWS-CASE 1

With the widespread use of the Internet in everyday life, new businesses have emerged, causing significant changes in the market, while some traditional businesses were marginalized. One of the emerging businesses is taxi-hailing, which has gained popularity among the public. This study examines ten attributes of taxi-hailing and asks individuals about their preferences for these attributes through a questionnaire. Unlike the traditional approach of dealing with discrete choice models, which focuses on choosing the best (most important) alternative only, the role of the worst (least important) alternative is also considered in this type of modelling. The present study utilizes case 1 (out of the three available cases) of this scaling method, called “best-worst”, which focuses on attributes. Each questionnaire includes 12 questions about taxi-hailing attributes, where respondents have to state their preference in selecting the best and the worst ones. The results indicate that security and reassurance are the most crucial attributes when deciding this transportation mode, followed by accessibility. Compliance with health issues and social distancing ranked as the least significant attribute.

And this application is also an alternative to additional income for hotel and lodging businesses

Strategies for use of the Internet by the older generation

Based on the data of semi-structured in-depth interviews, strategies for use of the Internet by older people are considered. The theoretical perspective of the study consisted of studies on the use of the Internet and information technologies by older people, actor-network theory in the context of the use of computer by the elderly and the elements of integration of older people into the use of the Internet from the objectification and conversion of the Senior Technology Acceptance Model (STAM). Older people appear in the field of technology research as a specific group of Internet users with their characteristic experience of mastering the meanings and roles of the Internet in everyday life. It is noted that development of the Internet by older people is reflexive and involves a number of difficulties. The empirical basis of the study is semi-structured interviews with people over 60 years of age from St. Petersburg, the Republic of Karelia, Tyumen and Salekhard (n=36). Based on the conducted research, we identified 4 strategies for the use of the Internet by older people: information consumption strategy; communication strategy; resource use strategy; rejection strategy. The main differences in the identified strategies are motivation and goals when using the Internet. The passage of the stages from objectification (intention to use) to conversion (making a final decision on further use) depends on the type of Internet resources — in the case of communication and information consumption, acceptance occurs quickly, unlike more specialized Internet services and applications. The main barriers are age, availability of professional employment and its specifics, social environment and family, availability of a smartphone. Drivers and sources of competencies for using the Internet are close relatives and special courses. Active professionals under the age of 75 tend to use the maximum number of Internet opportunities, including for professional purposes. The strategies highlighted in the study can be used both for further research in the field of interaction of older people and their communication on the Internet and as practical data for improving the quality of work and integration of older people into the Internet.

Rancang Bangun Website E-Learning Menggunakan Metode User-Centered Design dan Evaluasi Heuristik

The practice of using the internet in everyday life makes online learning more flexible than face-to-face learning. The online learning process is implemented through e-learning websites at various universities. The e-learning website used in online learning is still minimal attention in evaluating and does not apply elements of user experience and usability in it. We can find out whether a user is satisfied by testing the e-learning website to get feedback from the user. The research was conducted using a user-centered design (UCD) method which focuses on solving problems experienced by a user. Questionnaires will be distributed to users who need a new way of learning through Google Forms to get information about the actual problems experienced by users. This study found that the LearningKu website satisfies users with an average heuristic evaluation score of 1.04 or a scale of 1 included in the cosmetic problem category, which means that the problem does not need to be fixed unless there is time left in project work.

O Direito Comparado entre Brasil e Espanha na Análise da Herança Digital e Seus Desdobramentos

O exponencial avanço das tecnologias de informação e o uso cada vez maior da internet no cotidiano, principalmente na guarda de material que, pode ou não ter cunho patrimonial, aliado a um arcaico sistema normativo no que concerne o direito sucessório, tanto no Brasil quanto na Espanha, tem trazido constantes problemas de ordem prática quanto a destinação dos “bens e direitos virtuais” do de cujos. Assim, o objetivo é analisar brevemente o sistema normativo espanhol e brasileiro no tocante à ‘herança digital’, constatando que as normas vigentes são inócuas para uma solução prática adequada. Foi utilizado o método teórico e histórico que consiste na consulta de obras, artigos de periódicos, documentos eletrônicos, bem como da legislação pertinente ao tema de ambos os países. Também se analisou como o direito digital surge como um novo ramo do direito e quais são os bens passíveis de serem herdados, nunca deixando de lado a privacidade na era digital, a dignidade da pessoa humana e os direitos da personalidade, intrínsecos ao proprietário do bem digital, que se perduram mesmo após a sua morte.

Vowel and non-vowel frame segmentation based digital speech watermarking technique using LPA method

With the increased use of the Internet in everyday life, data transmission over the internet needs to be secure, so it necessitates the adoption of watermarking. Watermarking is the best solution for securing digital content and ensuring the integrity of the original data. It also certifies digital content and provides the best form of concealing information for permission. In many circumstances, the information is problematic as the use of digital content evolves rapidly. In this paper, we have proposed a novel speech watermarking method based on vowel and non-vowel frame segmentation using the Linear predictive analysis (LPA) method. The different vowel frame segments have been used in the LPA method to estimate the predicted values. The proposed model has used the LPA method, which allows for a more adaptive and skilful demonstration of a novel digital speech watermarking method. Afterwards, the specific locations have been chosen to embed the minimum value obtained from the grayscale watermark image. For the evaluation purpose, we have considered objective and subjective measures. The average SNR, MOS, and BER values of the proposed method are 45.68 dB, 4.55, and 0, respectively. The imperceptibility of watermarked speech and extracted watermark signals using the proposed method have approximately 48 dB, and 59 dB, respectively. The results show that the proposed speech watermarking procedure is more secure, powerful, and subtle than existing watermarking techniques because it reduces time and memory significantly.

Students’ Satisfaction on Virtual Pronunciation Learning Through YouTube Videos at Ban Huaysisiad School, Thailand

YouTube is one of the medias currently used by various groups, one of which is used in online learning. YouTube is also one of the learning media that suits the fast-paced learning styles of today's young people who use the internet in everyday life. There are millions of educational videos uploaded every day to YouTube, which makes it easier for students and teachers to find reference videos that can be used in the learning process according to the topic being studied. Foreign language teachers, especially English teachers in Thailand, can use videos from YouTube such as phonic sounds and minimal paired videos for teaching. With this video, Thai students can learn the basics of how to pronounce a word correctly. Using YouTube pronunciation videos, Thai students can learn how to pronounce English sounds correctly or at least can be understood because of learning from native speakers. The method used in this research is a two-phase mixed design method with an explanatory design type. The data obtained from this study are based on filling out questionnaires and interviews. The analysis in this study used quantitative and qualitative methods. Based on quantitative analysis, it is known that 100% of students agree with learning using YouTube media. Meanwhile, the qualitative analysis found that learning using YouTube videos was very fun and interesting for students. With this research, learning English becomes fun and not monotonous for students. In this study, learning English, especially in the pronunciation section, was not something that was scary for students.

The domestication of privacy-invasive technology on YouTube: Unboxing the Amazon Echo with the online warm expert

The purpose of this article is to explore how unboxing videos on YouTube contribute to the domestication of privacy-invasive technology. Further, the objective is to show how consumer influencers on YouTube adapt to the flexible persona of the online warm expert (OWE) which expands the concept of the ‘warm expert’ from the domestication literature ( Bakardjieva, 2005 , Internet Society: The Internet in Everyday Life. London: Sage Publications). I argue that the OWE and unboxing discourse advance corporate interests of surveillance capitalism in home environments by promoting the circulation of emergent consumer technologies and eschewing meaningful discussion of privacy and surveillance issues. A case study of the Amazon Echo smart speaker and Alexa, its voice-activated personal assistant, is presented. The research consists of a qualitative thematic analysis of unboxing videos ( N = 73) and viewer comments on YouTube. Unboxing discourse reflects normative consumer culture values that are detached from critical discussions of surveillance or the informational privacy framework of end-user agreements. As a practical implication, the study helps look beyond the household and traditional social relationships in the domestic sphere to understand how technological domestication is being shaped in a paradigm of consumer culture that is fused with the infrastructural and cultural logics of the Internet and social media.

Wykorzystywanie Internetu przez dzieci i młodzież – pozytywne i praktyczne aspekty oraz zagrożenia

The Internet is a tool that enables knowledge and information to spread rapidly, which has a huge impact on the development of person and society. It has a particularly significant impact on the young generation that eagerly use its benefits for the entertainment, communication and information purposes. A mobile phone plays an increasing role here, as it enables continuous, mobile access to the network. However, the effects of using the Internet in everyday life can be positive (e.g. learning) but also negative (e.g. addictions). Research shows that the time spent by young people online is constantly increasing. This causes concern among parents and carers. The use of the Internet by children and adolescents is a current and important topic, that requires constant attention and continuation of research, as well as education of users, parents and teachers on the proper use of the Internet.

GSLDA: LDA-based group spamming detection in product reviews

Online product reviews are becoming increasingly important due to their guidance function in people’s purchase decisions. As being highly subjective, online reviews are subject to opinion spamming, i.e., fraudsters write fake reviews or give unfair ratings to promote or demote target products. Although there have been much efforts in this field, the problem is still left open due to the difficulties in gathering ground-truth data. As more and more people are using Internet in everyday life, group review spamming, which involves a group of fraudsters writing hype-reviews (promote) or defaming-reviews (demote) for one or more target products, becomes the main form of review spamming. In this paper, we propose a LDA-based computing framework, namely GSLDA, for group spamming detection in product review data. As a completely unsupervised approach, GSLDA works in two phases. It first adapts LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) to the product review context in order to bound the closely related group spammers into a small-sized reviewer cluster, and then it extracts high suspicious reviewer groups from each LDA-clusters. Experiments on three real-world datasets show that GSLDA can detect high quality spammer groups, outperforming many state-of-the-art baselines in terms of accuracy.

Operation Pangea - standing together in combat against international pharmaceutical crime

Crime on the internet has grown accordingly to the increased use of the internet in everyday life. This includes illegal trading of pharmaceuticals via the internet. Trading in pharmaceuticals as "special commodities" underlies certain legal regulations in Germany, as in most other countries worldwide.Mail order trade (colloquially also known as internet trade) in pharmaceuticals requires approval of the competent regulatory authority. However, numerous illegal internet vendors of medicines present their websites to customers, purporting to be legal pharmacies and trading good and genuine medicines.It is not always easy for customers or patients to distinguish between legal websites, i. e. pharmacies operating with the approval of the authorities, and illegal, criminal websites. Patients accept dangerous risks when they order medicines on such illegal websites. Consumption of falsified or unlicensed pharmaceuticals of unknown origin often exposes patients' health to serious risks and dangers.Operation PANGEA is now in its tenth year of fighting illegal internet trade in pharmaceuticals at an internationally coordinated level. The results of Operation PANGEA are published in national and international media. Thus the public should be alert to the risks of buying medicines from one of the numerous illegal vendors on the internet.The competence for combatting illegal sales of medicines lies with customs and police agencies amongst others. These enforcement agencies regularly participate in the annual PANGEA Operations. The following article describes the origin and background of this operation, and outlines both the work of customs and police in this context, as well as the results of the latest PANGEA Operation.

Intrusion detection model using fusion of chi-square feature selection and multi class SVM

Intrusion detection is a promising area of research in the domain of security with the rapid development of internet in everyday life. Many intrusion detection systems (IDS) employ a sole classifier algorithm for classifying network traffic as normal or abnormal. Due to the large amount of data, these sole classifier models fail to achieve a high attack detection rate with reduced false alarm rate. However by applying dimensionality reduction, data can be efficiently reduced to an optimal set of attributes without loss of information and then classified accurately using a multi class modeling technique for identifying the different network attacks. In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection model using chi-square feature selection and multi class support vector machine (SVM). A parameter tuning technique is adopted for optimization of Radial Basis Function kernel parameter namely gamma represented by ‘ϒ’ and over fitting constant ‘C’. These are the two important parameters required for the SVM model. The main idea behind this model is to construct a multi class SVM which has not been adopted for IDS so far to decrease the training and testing time and increase the individual classification accuracy of the network attacks. The investigational results on NSL-KDD dataset which is an enhanced version of KDDCup 1999 dataset shows that our proposed approach results in a better detection rate and reduced false alarm rate. An experimentation on the computational time required for training and testing is also carried out for usage in time critical applications.
