  • Interactive Journal Concept for Improved Scientific Publishing and Quality Assurance 105
    Interactive journal concept for improved scientific publishing and quality assurance 105 Learned Publishing (2004)17, 105–113 Interactive ntroduction and motivation journal concept A large proportion of scientific publi- cations are careless, useless or false, I and inhibit scholarly communication and scientific progress. This statement may for improved sound provocative, but unfortunately is not an exaggeration. The spectacular recent cases of scientific fraud (e.g. Nature 2003:422, 92–3; Nature scientific 2002:419, 419–21; Science 2003:299, 31; Science 2002:298, 961) are only the tip of the iceberg. Many scientific papers fail to provide sufficiently accurate and detailed publishing and information to ensure that fellow research- ers can efficiently repeat the experiments or calculations and directly follow the line of quality assurance arguments leading to the presented con- clusions. Even in reputable peer-reviewed journals with high impact factors many Ulrich Pöschl contributions exhibit a lack of scientific Technical University of Munich rigour and thorough discussion. All too often papers fail to reflect the actual state- © Ulrich Pöschl 2004 of-the-art and do not take into account related studies in a critical and constructive ABSTRACT: Many scientific publications are way. careless, useless or false, and inhibit scholarly Many papers reflect a mentality of pub- communication and scientific progress.

  • Studies in Licit and Illicit Markets for Digital Entertainment Goods
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenGrey Repository Studies in licit and illicit markets for digital entertainment goods The thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth Joe Cox May 2012 Word Count: 68,597 Abstract The widespread proliferation of digital communication has revolutionised the way in which traditional entertainment media are distributed and consumed. This thesis investigates a range of aspects of these markets, beginning with a detailed analysis of the video games industry, which has emerged from relative obscurity and moved toward the cultural mainstream as a consequence of the digital revolution. The thesis presents an analysis of the market for video games from both the demand and supply side, investigating factors that drive the prices and unit sales of video gaming hardware and software. In doing so, evidence is presented on significant predictors of ‘blockbuster’ titles, the existence of first-mover advantages and the extent to which international markets conform to theoretical expectations relating to purchasing power parity (PPP) and cultural convergence. The thesis also goes on to explore the darker side of the digital revolution by examining the economics of illegal file sharing. Later chapters present empirical analyses of survey data with the aim of understanding motivations to participate in the practice to varying extents. The results are unique in the sense that they differentiate between a range of behaviours, such as seeding and leeching, as well as the illegal consumption of music and movie content.
