User behavior patterns when consuming and sharing information on social networks are analyzed, paying special attention to the effects of the type of presentation and the type of social network. As is common when analyzing activity on social networks, we used the experience sampling method, in which a group of volunteer participants are asked, at different times, a set of questions about their recent activity or experience. The sample consisted of 279 subjects. The results show that news requiring a greater effort is usually shared through closed networks, while in open networks there is a tendency to share more superficial information. No significant differences are found between the degree of reading of the news and the type of social network where it is shared. Moreover, the level of consumption does not influence the degree of reading of the shared material. The level of enjoyment of the news is found to influence its degree of reading. The differences between networks highlight that, on Facebook, the frequency of use influences the dynamics of consumption and sharing, with shared news being more emotional and useful. In contrast, in the case of Twitter, there is a greater preference for so-called soft information. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article is focused on the media coverage of the terrorist attacks occurred in Barcelona and Cambrils, Spain, in August 2017. The study analyzes the digital version of three international newspapers: The guardian, El país and El periódico de Catalunya. The content they published is compared with the Code of Ethics of the Professional Journalists Association of Catalonia and the Guidelines on news coverage of terrorism from the Catalan Audiovisual Council (CAC-CPC, 2016). The results show that the newspapers meet these criteria, with the exceptions of the protection of minors and the protection of privacy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: The article analyses and characterizes the ethical principles that underpin publication rules about authorship disputes in the education journals listed in Journal Citation Reports (JCR). Methodology: The article analyses the content of the ethical principles, submission conditions and author and reviewer guidelines required by the journals listed in the JCR subject category "Education and Educational Research". It analyses the presence of the following categories: inclusion and exclusion criteria, author order and maximum number of authors, corresponding author's role, changes to authorship and conflicts of interest between students and their supervisors or mentors. The results are classified according to publisher, geographical region and JCR quartile. Results: A little over half of the journals analysed include authorship-related ethical principles in their publication rules. Most commonly, these principles relate to inclusion criteria, followed by author order and corresponding author's role. Geographical region plays a decisive role in determining how far these principles are applied, while impact factor does not. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Advertisements are persuasive communications. The presence of gender stereotypes in those of them addressed to children can significantly influence their socialization process. Thus, this research focuses on the main companies of toy industry in Spain and on the strategy they followed in Facebook during 2014-2015 Christmas campaign. We analyze the objective of messages, the gender of children, the presence of adults, the use of voices, and the kind of interaction. We compare the data we obtain with some previous research, referred to television and offline media. The results show that there are less gender stereotypes and that brands have changed their strategies, because of the nature of social networking sites. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The toy industry in Spain suffers from a marked seasonality as a result of the concentration of the sales in Christmas. Social networks sites allow brands to interact with customers throughout the year and to reinforce their relationship during its key sales period. This paper presents the first study of the campaign carried out by the toy sector on Facebook. We have codified all the messages posted by six major toy brands on their profiles for three months (November, December and January). We addressed the objective of messages, the use of multimedia resources and the interaction between brands and users. It is concluded that the strategies of the brands are different from what they do in offline media. Hence, they get better user participation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The goal of this research was to analyse the advertising of food broadcast by the two Spanish private thematic channels aimed at children with more audience in Spain (Neox and Boing). A content analysis was made in order to study the commercials showed during the hours of children's enhanced protection established by the normative of this country. The paper presents the increasing concern about kids' obesity and the role of food industry. Healthy lifestyles are promoted through messages printed in the ads that children see on television. Nevertheless, a varied diet and regular exercise is pushed into the background as a result of the strong commercial strategy of this sector's brands. The pitch is the bonus that the consumer receives with the product instead of the nutritive characteristics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Radio networks have been forced to adapt their work processes to the so called Digital Society, which is changing the relationship between mass media and their listeners. One of the consequences of these changes is that users want to feel increasingly participant. The aim of this study is to evaluate the degree of adaptation of the main Spanish specialized radio networks to Web 2.0. The methodology we use consists of thirty-two indicators, organized around seven parameters that try to evaluate the quality of their websites and their use of interactive tools. The results show that there is a relationship between audience ratings and the quality of the websites [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
