“…Due to the lack of public awareness of the importance of osteoporosis prevention and the lack of prevention and treatment capacity for osteoporosis in primary healthcare institutions, the bone mineral density detection rate of Chinese residents is relatively low, and most residents do not take timely prevention and control measures at the initial stage of bone mass decline [ 25 ]. Another explanation may be that the 20-39 age group has more convenient access to the Internet, and as a group of children, parental discomfort occurs, resulting in a greater demand for osteoporosis-related information [ 28 , 29 ]. In addition, a higher target group index (TGI) indicates that female Internet users are more interested in osteoporosis-relevant information, which is consistent with the prevalence trend of osteoporosis and is equivalent to a higher volume of searches.…”

Introduction China's most widely used online search engine, Baidu (Baidu, Inc., Beijing, China), has developed a data collection and analysis tool called the Baidu Index for tracking Internet search trends. The purpose of this study was to examine the utility of the Baidu Index in tracking online osteoporosis information-seeking behavior and comprehending the traits and concerns of the Chinese population. Methods We used the search term "osteoporosis" for the Baidu Index for the years 2018-2022. The geographic and demographic distributions, search volumes, and demand maps were recorded. Results The popularity of the search term "osteoporosis" has increased over time. The search was mostly conducted among women aged 20-39 in northern China. The demand map revealed that the most significant concerns are related to the diagnosis, treatment, and etiology of osteoporosis. Conclusion The Baidu Index is a valuable tool for tracking online health information-seeking behavior among Chinese netizens. Online search trend data appears to reflect the geographic and demographic aspects of osteoporosis to a certain extent.

En México, el marco jurídico Ambiental y de responsabilidad social se conforma por leyes, reglamentos derivados, lineamientos y normas. Cuando las empresas realizan acciones en inmuebles y operaciones que contribuyen a la protección del ambiente; están en la posibilidad de registrarlos o notificarlo ante la autoridad y ser acreedores para recibir estímulos a la innovación. Al encuestar a un grupo de 204 potenciales emprendedores universitarios para relacionar la normatividad jurídica ambiental con los aspectos de responsabilidad social; que deben ser atendidos desde la gestión de una empresa; se concluye una visión estratégica para el diseño de nuevos negocios, se sugiere más allá de definir el sector industrial en que participará la empresa, identificar la oportunidad de negocio al satisfacer alguna de las necesidades existentes. Además, el conocimiento del marco jurídico ambiental permite identificar los niveles de compromiso con el ambiente y la responsabilidad social en nuevas oportunidades de negocios y con ello potencializar el valor de la empresa a partir de la generación de intangibles de valor universal y sustentable al sistematizar la gestión de la sostenibilidad organizacional.

“…As a result, findings regarding privacy concerns in non-social media contexts might be challenging to extrapolate to social media environments (Proudfoot et al ., 2018; Bartol et al ., 2023). Furthermore, the multidimensional nature of privacy concerns allows researchers to capture nuanced differences in privacy attitudes (Shi et al ., 2023; Zarouali et al ., 2022). Thus, in this study, we employ the construct of social media privacy concerns and the operationalization by Koohang (2017) and Koohang et al .…”

“…The increased academic focus on the older population is justified by the fact that older adults are becoming increasingly comfortable with technology and are recognizing the benefits of using web services (Chakraborty et al, 2013;Shi et al, 2023). However, it is important to note that the older population is also considered a highly vulnerable group when engaging in online activities compared to other age groups (Millward, 2003;Seo et al, 2021).…”

PurposeThis paper explores the similarities and differences in privacy attitudes, trust and risk beliefs between younger and older adults on social networking sites. The objective of the article is to ascertain whether any notable differences exist between younger (18–25 years old) and older (55+ years old) adults in how trust and risk are influenced by privacy concerns upon personal information disclosure on social media.Design/methodology/approachA Likert scale instrument validated in previous research was employed to gather the responses of 148 younger and 152 older adults. The scale was distributed through Amazon Mechanical Turk. Data were analyzed through partial least squares structural equation modeling.FindingsNo significant differences were found between younger and older adults in how social media privacy concerns related to trust and risk beliefs. Two privacy concern dimensions were found to have a significant influence on perceptions of risk for both populations: collection and control. Predictability and a sense of control are proposed as two conceptual approaches that can explain these findings.Originality/valueThis article is the first one to explore age differences in privacy concerns, trust and risk on social media employing conceptual developments and an instrument specifically tailored to the social media environment. Based on the findings, several strategies are suggested to keep privacy concerns on social media at a minimum, reduce risk perceptions and increase users' trust.
