Black Friday: Has the game changed?

Peters Cara,Thomas Jane 한국마케팅과학회 2022 Journal of Global Fashion Marketing Vol.13 No.4

Previous research on Black Friday consumption rituals has focused on planning and shopping for an in-store customer experience. In recent times, however, consumer perceptions and shopping behaviors related to Black Friday have begun to shift. Consumers are shopping earlier, moving online, taking advantage of delivery and curbside pickup, and expecting retailers to provide a safe, socially distanced shopping experience. This study was grounded in theory from social change within the field of sociology. The purpose of this study was to examine how various factors, such as the pandemic, retailer strategies, online shopping, cultural trends are reshaping consumers’ views and shopping behaviors related to Black Friday. Data were collected via 31 phenomenological interviews with consumers who have shopped on Black Friday in the past. Results were analyzed according to the protocol for phenomenology and were presented in the form of themes that emerged from the data. Overall, consumers believed that Black Friday had changed and had become less impactful. Changes were due to store policies and procedures around safety during the pandemic, retailers extending the number of days and weeks for Black Friday shopping, the convenience and breadth of products available among a plethora of online shopping alternatives, the impact of the economy on the ability to shop, and how the name Black Friday has negative associations for some shoppers. Managerial implications for retailers were discussed as the game of Black Friday has changed. Implications included strategies retailers can use to entice consumers as they try to revamp Black Friday and engage shoppers in the future.

독일 환경영향평가에서의 자연환경의 평가절차

Peters, Wolfgang 한국환경영향평가학회 1993 환경영향평가 Vol.2 No.2

During the last years it became more and more difficult to deal with environmental conflicts using traditional political instruments in industrialized countries. One reason for the occurring problems might be the citizens' awareness of scarceness of nature. Another reason might be the changing legislation with the introduction of the environmental impact assessment (EIA) as an integral part of a project's licensing procedure. The EIA offers new possibilities for citizens to interfere in decision processes and to obstruct projects. The changing situation requires new instruments for conflict solving. Mediation may he considered an alternative or completion to the traditional political instruments. It is a systematic strategy for conflict treatment and, with the support of an independent mediator, allows to reach an agreement among all parties involved. Mediation may be introduced in the EIA. One possibility offers the scoping date, which, if the participation of the public is assured, might avoid heavy disputes in the further process. Another connection between the instrument of mediation and the EIA could be the use of the environmental impact study (EIS) as information background for a mediation process. EIA would then be source of information about all environmental aspects. Thus the role of EIA would be extended to being a part of conflict analysis in the alternative dispute resolution process.

VERTICAL FLOATING PINS IN OTC ROUTING

Peters, I.,Molitor, P.,Weber, M. 대한전자공학회 1996 APCCAS:Asia Pacific Conference on Circuits And Sys Vol.1 No.1

We present a generalized center terminal cell model and propose ove-th-cell (OTC) routing algorithms, utilizing the new feature of the model, i.e., Vertical Floating Pins (VFP's). We approach the problem by linear integer programming and by dynamic programming. For further channel density reduction, both approaches have been combined with linear channel pin assignment. Experiments show a total density reduction by 45% compared to other OTC routing algorithms for center terminal cells.

Use of Methods and Evaluation Systems of the Impact Mitigation Principle in German EIA

Peters, Wolfgang 한국환경영향평가학회 1993 환경영향평가 Vol.2 No.2

Before the EIA was established in the Federal Republic of Germany, the impact mitigation principle - a planning instrument, which has its legal foundation in the German nature conservation legislation already had {and still has} the function to valuate environmental impacts. The valuation principles and methods which have been developed in correlation to this instrument are now also used in the EIA. Particularly for the valuation of alternating effects on the different ecological landscape functions and for the valuation of ecological mitigation and compensation measures this valuation methods are used. These methods base on a special kind of modelling nature and environment Following the aim of the nature conservation act, which is to save the capacity of the landscape to perform its essential functions, not the ecological factors (soil, water, air etc.) itselfs are evaluated but the ecological functions of the landscape, which are based on the ecological factors.

복제의 충격과 신학의 반응

Peters, Ted 강남대학교 2000 우원사상 논총 Vol.9 No.-

복제가 성공했다는 소식이 전해지자마자, 온 세상은 즉각, 그리고 직관적으로 그것이 신학의 문제라는 생각을 했다. 이것은 과학 이상의 문제이며, 단순히 새로운 과학 기술의 발견이 아닌 것이다. 타임지의 표지에 두 마리 양의 사진과 함께 써 있는 문장 - "또 다른 당신은 존재할 것인가?"-에서 발견될 수 있듯이 이것은 복제양 "돌리"(Dolly)에 대한 우스개 소리 이상이다. 이것은 종교적인 문제를 촉발시켰다. 그리고 우리를 휘감고 있는 두려움은 윤리적 분노를 일으키고 있다.

Priority Setting for Occupational Cancer Prevention

Peters, Cheryl E.,Palmer, Alison L.,Telfer, Joanne,Ge, Calvin B.,Hall, Amy L.,Davies, Hugh W.,Pahwa, Manisha,Demers, Paul A. Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute 2018 Safety and health at work Vol.9 No.2

Background: Selecting priority occupational carcinogens is important for cancer prevention efforts; however, standardized selection methods are not available. The objective of this paper was to describe the methods used by CAREX Canada in 2015 to establish priorities for preventing occupational cancer, with a focus on exposure estimation and descriptive profiles. Methods: Four criteria were used in an expert assessment process to guide carcinogen prioritization: (1) the likelihood of presence and/or use in Canadian workplaces; (2) toxicity of the substance (strength of evidence for carcinogenicity and other health effects); (3) feasibility of producing a carcinogen profile and/or an occupational estimate; and (4) special interest from the public/scientific community. Carcinogens were ranked as high, medium or low priority based on specific conditions regarding these criteria, and stakeholder input was incorporated. Priorities were set separately for the creation of new carcinogen profiles and for new occupational exposure estimates. Results: Overall, 246 agents were reviewed for inclusion in the occupational priorities list. For carcinogen profile generation, 103 were prioritized (11 high, 33 medium, and 59 low priority), and 36 carcinogens were deemed priorities for occupational exposure estimation (13 high, 17 medium, and 6 low priority). Conclusion: Prioritizing and ranking occupational carcinogens is required for a variety of purposes, including research, resource allocation at different jurisdictional levels, calculations of occupational cancer burden, and planning of CAREX-type projects in different countries. This paper outlines how this process was achieved in Canada; this may provide a model for other countries and jurisdictions as a part of occupational cancer prevention efforts.
