We were honoured to host professor Jochen Peter from University of Amsterdam in Brno. Jochen Peter is one of the most prominent researchers in the field of online communication and a member of advisory board for our research project Modelling the Future (FUTURE). On Monday, we discussed theoretical and methodological challenges of the FUTURE project. In the evening, we continued this fruitful discussion over some beers and traditional St. Martin's roasted goose. On Tuesday professor Peter provided valuable insights in one-to-one meetings with IRTIS members.
IRTIS members Hana Drtilová, David Šmahel and Martina Šmahelová published a new qualitative study detailing the advantages and disagvantages of internet use from the perspective of women with eating disorder experience. The study was published in the prestegious journal Health Communication.
L. Dědkova and D. Šmahel from IRTIS, together with M. Just from Heriot-Watt University, published a new study examining which sources of information about digital security parents rely on and how these preferences relate to their internet mediation practices and internet skills.
