“…Each factorial aggregation of response modalities lends itself to being interpreted as the effect of a latent generalized meaning linking the response modalities independent from their specific content (Hellsten et al 2010;Landaeur et al 1998;Lebart et al 1998;Salvatore and Venuleo 2013;Venuleo et al in press). Accordingly, we consider factors as the markers of an oppositional dimension made of opposite generalized meanings, above called Latent Dimension of Sense (Mossi and Salvatore 2011;Venuleo et al in press).…”

The Role of Cultural Factors in Differentiating Pathological Gamblers

It is recognised that cultural factors play a role in the onset and continuation of several mental health problems. However, there is a significant lack of empirical studies investigating the relationships between cultural factors and gambling behavior. This study assessed whether the subjective cultures through which subjects interpret and enact their experience of the social environment play a major role in increasing (or decreasing) the probability of pathological gambling. Participants, recruited in three different contexts (public health services for the treatment of addiction, casino, undergraduate course) were subjected to the South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS) (Lesieur and Blume in Am J Psychiatry 144(9):1184-1188, 1987), in order to identify a group of pathological gamblers-and with the Questionnaire on the Interpretation of the Social Environment (QUISE) (Mossi and Salvatore in Eur J Educ Psychol 4(2):153-169, 2011)-in order to detect their subjective cultures. The study compares pathological group (scoring >5 on SOGS, n = 34) and a healthy control group (scoring <1 on SOGS, n = 35). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare groups on QUISE scores of subjective culture. Moreover, a logistic regression was applied in order to esteem the capability of the QUISE scores to differentiate between pathological gamblers and control. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that pathological group expresses different subjective cultures compared with no gambler subjects. The theoretical and clinical implications of the results are discussed.

“…Semantic analysis with a network approach has also been applied in order to reveal implicit frames (Hellsten, Dawson and Leydesdorff, 2009). In the latter approach, vocabularies of an article are considered particular instantiations of larger repertoires constituting of a set of vocabularies that recur over time.…”

This study analyses nanotechnologys anchoring and codification in the Spanish national press to determine the thematic contexts in which this technology has been discussed. Latent semantic analysis was applied to identify themes based on semantic clusters and their longitudinal evolution. This analysis was carried out on a corpus of more than 600 articles from the most prominent Spanish national newspapers and includes articles from 1997 to 2009. Findings indicate an overall positive coverage and dominant thematic clusters related to national policies, economic development and business opportunities. Surprisingly, controversies surrounding nanotechnology are present in the early years of coverage but have become marginal over time, in contradiction to a general trend that emerged from previous studies on media representations of new technologies. IntroductionNanotechnology has frequently been described in the media, by policymakers, and even by scientists, as the technology that will provide the catalyst for the next industrial revolution. Yet, such utopian scenarios are also often accompanied by dystopian predictions within the current discursive arena. In July 2004, for instance, ETC Group (which stands for Erosion, Technology and Concentration), a Canadian environmental group, successfully lobbied for the attention of Britains Prince Charles: soon after reading an ETC report on nanotechnology, His Majesty made a public statement on the risks of this new technology, and the mass media coverage of his view and the debate that followed brought nanotechnology to the * Electronic address: G.Veltri@uea.ac.uk 1

“…As a result, they contribute, on the one hand, to spreading the animosity against the steakhouse, but on the other, they also broaden the perspective provided by the social-media posts, which may eventually mitigate the critical effect of public resentment on the restaurant. This process may create alignment between the frames instantiated by the public and the media, leading to collective sensemaking, which is considered crucial to avoid crisis escalation (Hellsten et al, 2010;Seeger, 2010).…”

AbstractPurpose -The purpose of this paper is to discuss why social media frames may exert substantial influence on the image of organisations and even trigger organisational crises. Design/methodology/approach -The study applies the theoretical approaches of crisis, framing and stakeholder theory to examine social media constructions of organisational behaviour. A recent case from the Danish restaurant industry exemplifies the structuring of social media frames and their impact on organisational image. Findings -The results of the study confirm the findings of previous studies but with the crucial addition that the power of social media frames is closely connected to their drawing on basic cultural and social beliefs that unite stakeholders across potentially different interests and identities.Research limitations/implications -The study is qualitative and applies a small dataset. To confirm the findings, further studies need to be conducted. Social implications -This paper sheds light on an issue which continues to be highly relevant for organisations. By gaining insight into the conceptual nature of frames and stakeholder motivations, which guide social-media entries, they may be better equipped for meeting the demands of the public and thus for preventing crises. Originality/value -This is a field of research that continues to develop concurrently with the development and spread of social media. By analysing in detail how frames are constructed, the study contributes to research in the field.
