- ItemOnline Social Networks and Workplaces: new and old challenges(European Scientific Institute, ESI, 2015-09-09) Machado, Susana Sousa; Pinto, Júlio CostaIn recent years the growth in the use of new technologies, especially the internet, has given birth to new problems that deserve to be evaluated. The use of technologies of Web 2.0 poses new challenges as to the powers of employers in using the information disclosed by the employees. The new web phase in which we live today offered an active role to the user, removing him from the shade of a passive position. This mutation of borders created new interaction paradigms insofar as the notion of time and space was altered, which could lead to serious consequences as far as the utilization of online social networks is concerned as well as its impact on the employment relationship. The boundary between what may or may not be published by the employee on online social networks like facebook, twitter or blogs is not always clear. But, the employee’s privacy concerning information available in online social networks which can be used by the employer within the employment relationship, also deserves protection. In this article, we intend to analyze the characterization of online social network on the web 2.0 in order to better understand, at a second stage, the effects of its use in the working relationship.

- ItemFestivals in Age of AI: smarter crowds, happier fans(MDPI, 2025-02-21) Lopes, João M.; Massano-Cardoso, Ilda; Granadeiro, CamilaArtificial intelligence (AI) stands out as a transformative force in various sectors, offering both new opportunities and challenges. In tourism and music events, AI has proven to be a powerful tool for improving the attendee experience, personalizing artist recommendations, optimizing event logistics in real time, and enhancing audience interaction through virtual assistants and immersive visual effects, thus highlighting its transformative potential. This study aims to analyze the impact of applying AI to the experience of consumers at music festivals. In particular, the research examines the impact of AI on the quality of information delivered, the extent of consumer engagement with brands at the event, and the level of trust in the technology. A quantitative methodology was used, collecting 400 responses from Portuguese consumers who attended music festivals. The results show that the quality of information and the AI positively influence customer engagement with the brand. Greater customer engagement, in turn, increases the willingness to use AI solutions. Trust in AI is significantly shaped by the quality of the information and the reliability of the system, which further promotes electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) and the willingness to adopt AI. In addition, eWOM plays a key role in encouraging the use of AI technologies. Finally, memorable tourist experiences positively influence the willingness to adopt AI, underlining the importance of experiential factors in promoting adoption. These results highlight the interconnected roles of information quality, trust, involvement, and user experiences in shaping attitudes toward artificial intelligence applications. This study expands the literature by analyzing how AI-driven information quality influences consumer trust and engagement, thus emphasizing the need to optimize these factors for better festival strategies. It highlights the link between trust and positive eWOM, showing that trust based on high-quality information enhances the festival’s reputation and attracts participants. A key contribution is its exploration of how trust and eWOM influence AI adoption at future festivals, which offers insights to boost credibility and acceptance. Lastly, it provides strategic guidelines that improve attendee experience and festival management.
- ItemColour Applied to TEACCH and Snoezelen Rooms and Therapies(Faculdade de Arquitectura da Universidade de Lisboa, 2019-03-15) Saes, JoanaHow can colour be used in therapy rooms and in therapies? Colour is known to have influence in human behaviour, through the interaction between colour wavelengths and sensory stimuli in the environment, subconsciously influencing the human mind. A therapeutic space requires specific characteristics regarding the exercises to perform in such space as well as the participants involved. Colour is also considered as an ‘international language’ allowing people to express their preferences, their choices, and their emotions. Throughout the research we have attempted to answer the following questions: How can colour, introduced in games, equipment, objects, images and projections, be used as a teaching tool in a TEACCH room, as opposed to a Snoezelen room? How does a therapist work on specific skills with autistic children in a structured therapy environment such as TEACCH, in comparison to a non-directive therapy environment such as Soezelen? Research results indicate that colour is used in diverse ways in both environments, being the major differences the way in which it is introduced to the children, the objectives it aims, as well as the use of light in connection with the equipment.
- ItemDesign in a Context of Social Equity: concerning therapy rooms in schools(AHFE International, 2022) Saes, Joana; Guerreiro, AugustoThis paper, suggests a contemplation on the vital importance that design represents for the human being as an integrating factor in society, enabling safe therapeutic spaces in schools, aiming for social equity, in the context of the SARS CoV2 pandemic. Furthermore, we look upon the increase of mental disorders (anxiety and depression) among students, caused by quarantines, and how this could lead to greater demand for therapy spaces in schools. We also analyze examples of existing therapy rooms, and one project for a room, to be implemented in the same inclusive school. Reflecting on a concept of social design, from the observational point of view, of sensoriocognitive comfort, in their contemplation of the hypothetical, revitalizing and multisensory ergonomic enjoyment of its collective well-being.
