Modelos de negocio orientados al consumidor en los cibermedios españoles

La viabilidad de los cibermedios y los modelos de negocio que la sustenten son ya un tema  clásico  de  la  literatura  académica  y  profesional  en  el  ámbito  del  periodismo  electrónico. Consideramos relevante examinar las estrategias de ingresos orientadas al consumidor  de  los  cibermedios  españoles  en  un  contexto  de  madurez  de  la  prensa  digital que contrasta con la aguda crisis económica que vive en estos momentos el país.  Las  conclusiones  de  nuestro  estudio  señalan  la  convivencia  de  dos  modelos  de  negocio diametralmente distintos entre los cibermedios más vistos y de referencia en Internet en España y el establecimiento de estrategias de ‘suma de valor’ en aquellos cibermedios que han establecido sistemas de pago por consumo de contenidos.

The Portuguese version of the Psychological Adjustment to Separation Test-Part A (PAST-A): a study with recently and non-recently divorced adults

Past research has demonstrated that divorced adults show more health problems and psychological distress than married adults. Considering the high prevalence rates of divorce among Western countries, new and robust measures should be developed to measure psychological distress after this specific transition in adulthood. The aim of this study was to adapt and validate a Portuguese version of the Psychological Adjustment to Separation Test-Part A (PAST-A; Sweeper and Halford in J Family Psychol 20(4):632–640, 2006). PAST-A is a self-report measure that assesses two key dimensions of separation adjustment problems: lonely-negativity and former partner attachment. Psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of PAST-A were assessed in terms of factor structure, internal consistency, and convergent and divergent validity, in an online convenience sample with divorced adults (N = 460). The PAST-A two-factor structure was confirmed by exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, with each factor demonstrating very satisfactory internal consistency and good convergence. In terms of discriminant validity, the Portuguese PAST-A reveals a distinct factor from psychological growth after divorce. The results provided support for the use of the Portuguese PAST-A with divorced adults and also suggested that the explicative factors of the psychological adjustment to divorce may be cross-cultural stable. The non-existence of validated divorce-related well-being measures and its implications for divorce research are also discussed.
