Using a stringency index that comprises a variety of lockdown levels, such as school and workplace closures, we analyze the effectiveness of government restrictions. At the same time, we investigate the capacity of a range of lockdown measures to lower the reproduction rate by considering vaccination rates and testing strategies. By including all three components in an SIR (Susceptible, Infected, Recovery) model, we show that a general and comprehensive test strategy is instrumental in reducing the spread of COVID-19. The empirical study demonstrates that testing and isolation represent a highly effective and preferable approach towards overcoming the pandemic, in particular until vaccination rates have risen to the point of herd immunity.</jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{Artificial conversational agents are becoming increasingly popular in various spheres of life. Contemporary AI is able to talk to humans using sophis­ticated conversational techniques and human-like conversational patterns. For instance, Google Duplex, a cutting-edge voice interface, is capable of autonomously making customer service calls that barely register as robotic. With the frequency of human-computer interactions on the rise, there is a growing need to study their features: how misunderstandings are resolved, how conversational aims are achieved. This article is an empirical investigation of the interaction between an advanced conver­sational agent and human interactant. Using the framework of ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, the authors analyze the procedurally unfolding and naturally emerging conversational practices, as well as the normative structures that emerge as a result. The research is based on a recording of a call between Google Duplex and a human operator. We explore how to reach conversational closing — a microstructure that requires cooperation between the speakers. Despite interactional tensions caused by the robot’s incongruous prosody, conversational closing is produced by the gradual achievement of epistemic balance. The authors empha­size the relationship between the institu­tional context of the interaction and the non-human agent’s robotic nature. The results serve as a foundation for future studies in human-robot interaction and provide a deeper understanding of how conversational closings are achieved in liminal cases.}},

  abstract     = {{The field of human-computer interaction (HCI) investigates the intersection between the design of devices and users. From an early focus on interaction modeling based on psychological experiments, the field has since experienced a shift towards the study of how actual humans interact with autonomous devices. The field became conductive to ethnographic, observational and videographic studies of human-device interaction. Conversation-analytic HCI became possible. That said, this new wave of researchers was never truly able to dethrone the psychological common sense of the field. With recent developments in both the technical-sensorial capabilities and outward actuational range of embodied virtual agents, the field of HCI has once again returned to the question of the sequential unfolding of the interaction between users and intelligent agents, and the multimodal interactional repertoire that is deployed throughout. This review will highlight the situational orientation of high-impact research in the field, and relate it to the cotemporaneous development of ethnomethodological and conversation analytic frameworks.

The results show that state‐owned enterprises (SOEs), and in particular, central SOEs, are more likely to substitute accrual‐based earnings management strategies with costlier but less detectable real earnings management strategies than non‐SOEs. The results also indicate that politically connected enterprises (PCEs) are more likely to employ less detectable real earnings management strategies than non‐PCEs, so much so that PCEs’ total earnings management level is higher than that of non‐PCEs.</jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{Altruistically motivated investment has become the subject of economic, psychological and sociological research in recent years. The long tradition of ethical considerations concerning investment behavior has often been mentioned by historians but rarely investigated. This paper presents a case study of the 19th century philhellene banker Jean-Gabriel Eynard,
who was philanthropically active in Greece, but also invested part of his capital on the emerging Greek market. Drawing on the methodological approach of the “sociology of morality”, this article examines how Eynard invested in Greece, which norms and values concerning investment behavior he articulated and how far they were comparable with the norms and values of today’s Socially Responsible Investment. What emerges is that the practices and the norms of Socially
Responsible and Ethical Investment then and now are remarkably similar, while the “moral background” (G. Abend) has changed considerably in some, but not all points.}},
