In this study we explored the influence of country of origin (COO), brand image, and self-congruity on consumers' purchase intention of luxury brands via the Internet. We found that: (a) consistency in the country of origin (COO), self-congruity, and brand image had a positive impact on purchase intention; (b) inconsistency between the country of brand and the country of manufacture, and consistency in the country image increased the influence of brand image on purchase intention when the brand image was weak; (c) inconsistency in the country image decreased the influence of brand image on purchase intention when the brand image was weak; and (d) consistency in COO influenced purchase intention more strongly than did self-congruity.

UNSTRUCTURED Social isolation has a negative impact on the quality of life of older people, which is why studies have focussed on identifying its sociodemographic, economic and health determinants. In view of the growing importance of the internet as a means of communication, it is important to examine the extent to which this technology also contributes to social isolation or, conversely, counters it. This study specifically aims to clarify this relationship for which other surveys present contradictory results. The current research uses a logistic regression analysis and a sample of 66,998 individuals aged 50+ from 17 European countries (Portugal, Greece, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Switzerland, Luxemburg, Poland, Czech Republic; Slovenia, Estonia, and Croatia) plus Israel, who were interviewed in SHARE (Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe)- wave 6. The results show that countries differ in the level of social isolation and rate of internet use by individuals aged 50+. They also point to a lower social isolation of the internet users when compared to the non-users, in most of the countries analyzed, after controlling for a set of socio-demographic, economic and health characteristics of the individuals, described in the literature as determinants of social isolation. The results underline the importance of promoting e-inclusion in Europe as a way to deal with social isolation.

Abstract: Adult contents on the internet is very common today but it has become a serious concern now because of many reasons such as the proliferation of free to view adult websites has made it easier for individuals of any age to gain access to explicit content. Children increasingly use mobile devices such as smartphones to access the internet and these adult content can have bad impact on their mind. Excessive exposure to these contents can lead to addiction which can have very adverse effect on their mind and their heath.so i came up with an idea to reduce this activity on internet saving people and childrens in particular. In this paper we will discuss a pipeline of a system developed which consists of three modules. The first one is scanning the heading and subheading of the web page to identify if the page is toxic or not. For this task we have used the SOTA model. The second module finds if the page contains a video and identifies it as adult video or not through video caption. we have used LSTM[1] network for this classification task and the last module is CV module which is the most important part of the project. It is an age detection module which detects the age of the people inside the video. The objective was to block the video if the age of any people doing activity exceeds 18. These modules when passed to the pipeline will forbid internet users to watch any kind of adult content specifically which involves a child. It's important to stop this because this has a very negative impact on our society and it is ruining our culture.
