This study examines whether the frequent discrepancy between publishers and audiences over the news that interests them – the former preferring hard news, the latter soft news – is repeated on social networks. Based on a sample of 8,000 news stories uploaded to a Spanish-language news aggregator over 10 years (2006–2015), the number of hard, soft and general news stories published on its front page was calculated. In addition, the news stories that received the most votes, comments and visits were analysed, and correlations were sought among these three variables. The results show that users mainly chose hard news when voting (50.2%), followed by soft news (30.9%) and general news (18.9%). This was in sharp contrast to the results found for news consumption, where visitors access soft news much more than hard news. The investigation offers some clues about the extent to which the disparity of interests between journalists and readers facing news poses a real problem, and it also provides a new outlook on how editors can deal with audiences.
Este artículo se centra en el análisis del tratamiento informativo que los diarios españoles El País, ABC, El Mundo y La Razón realizan sobre el suicidio consumado, concretamente sobre los factores desencadenantes del mismo, desde el 1 de enero de 2017 hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2017. Aplicando una metodología de análisis de contenido, los resultados muestran que los diarios analizados plantean el tema del suicidio consumado como la solución a un problema y, además, incluyen detalles como el mecanismo empleado y la nota de suicidio, llegando en algunos casos al sensacionalismo. Las informaciones reflejan los datos reales sobre suicidio, pero se alejan de las indicaciones de la OMS para tratar el tema desde una perspectiva más integral y menos noticiosa.
ResumenEsta investigación analiza la cobertura periodística de los temas sobre salud y medicina en la prensa escrita diaria editada en la Comunidad Autónoma Vasca y en la Comunidad Foral de Navarra desde 2001 hasta 2010. Se ha utilizado el método del análisis de contenido cuantitativo y cualitativo basado en la técnica de la semana compuesta, que nos ha permitido realizar un análisis diacrónico sobre el objeto de estudio. El estudio concluye que a pesar de haber aumentado la cantidad de informaciones sobre salud en los diarios analizados, los contenidos no profundizan en los temas tratados y carecen en la mayoría de los casos de enfoque educativo.Asimismo, la información gráfica en la que se apoyan los textos se basa en fotografías de poco valor informativo. Palabras claveInformación sobre salud, medicina, prensa vasca, análisis de contenido.Abstract This research analyzes the media coverage of health and medical topics in the daily newspapers published in the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country and in the Chartered Community of Navarre from 2001 to 2010. We used the method of quantitative and qualitative content analysis based on the technique of composite week, which allowed us to carry out a diachronic analysis on the subject of study. The sample consists of the five leading newspapers in both communities. The study concludes that,despite the fact that the analyzed newspapers have increased the amount of health related information,the contents do not go further into the researched issues and lack, in most cases, an educational approach. Furthermore, the graphical information in the texts is based on photographs of little informative value.La sociedad actual está cada vez está más concienciada en adquirir y mantener hábitos que contribuyan a mejorar su salud. Esta constatación está avalada por diversas investigaciones y estudios sociológicos que ponen de manifiesto que la salud y la medicina son uno de los temas que más interés suscita en la sociedad del siglo XXI.El Ministerio de Sanidad sondea todos los años la opinión de la ciudadanía a cerca de la salud a través del
Fitness of a single species is often measured in terms of the number of viable offspring produced. We explore the relationship between the number of ovarioles and the size of females in five species of Simuliidae in two páramo regions of Colombia. Individuals of seven species of female blackflies that landed on animals were collected from mules in the Ucumarí Regional Park (RPNU) and from cattle in the Chingaza Natural National Park (ChNNP). The ovarioles of the five most abundant species were dissected out and counted, and a one-factor ANOVA was performed to explore differences in the mean number of ovarioles produced by different female size categories. Simulium ignescens Roubaud and S. ignescens-like species were collected in RPNU and S. ignescens, Simulium muiscorum Bueno et al, Simulium cormonsi Wygodzinsky and Simulium pautense Coscarón & Takaoka, in ChNNP. In addition, we also analyzed the Pearson product-moment correlation between the mean number of ovarioles per blackfly and female size within species using those which more than 20 individuals were collected. Ovarioles were meroistic-polytrophic type. A multiple range test (least significant difference) indicated that the largest size group had the largest mean number of ovarioles per female. In the other size groups, there were approximately equal numbers of ovarioles per female. Pearson's correlation coefficient was separately measured and indicated a 50% correlation between female size and ovariole number in S. ignescens. Although ovariole number is probably a genetically driven feature, other environmental and physiological conditions, including infections, can influence the number of eggs.
The present study focuses on analyzing the image that the press published in the Basque Autonomous Community (CAV) projects on children and teenagers in relation to educational issues. In order to do this, we analyzed all information and opinion items published during 2010 in six daily newspapers in the CAV. The method used to carry out the research was the analysis of quantitative and qualitative content and was based on the so-called composite week technique, and a sample of six newspapers: El Mundo, El País, El Correo Español, El Diario Vasco, Berria and the Bilbao edition of Deia. The results obtained show that in most texts dealing with some aspect of education there are no direct and explicit references to minors. They also show that the way the media approach and manage the educational system often becomes a political or ideological battlefield.RESUMENEl estudio que presentamos se engloba dentro de una investigación de mayor envergadura, realizada para el Departamento de Empleo y Asuntos Sociales del Gobierno Vasco, cuyo objetivo pretende conocer la realidad social para elaborar políticas eficaces de promoción de la infancia y la adolescencia en la Comunidad Autónoma Vasca. La hipótesis de partida es que desde los medios de comunicación se distorsiona la realidad infantil y adolescente, resaltando únicamente aspectos negativos. Además, los medios no prestan a los menores la consideración y la atención necesarias. Para el estudio se ha utilizado el método del análisis de contenido cuantitativo y cualitativo basado en la técnica de la semana compuesta. La muestra se compone de seis cabeceras: 'El Mundo', 'El País', 'El Correo Español', 'Diario Vasco' y la edición vizcaína de 'Deia', que según la OJD son los de mayor difusión y el diario Berria porque es el único periódico editado íntegramente en euskera. Los resultados son esclarecedores. En la mayoría de las piezas que abordan temas de educación no existen referencias directas y expresas a los menores. La gestión que se hace en los medios del sistema educativo y su planteamiento se convierte en campo de batalla política o ideológica.
