  More and more digital data is being generated every day, and more and more social science
  analyses are using Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook data. Many international and national studies
  have already explored the social science opportunities and dilemmas raised by the phenomenon
  of ‚big data’ - but the issue of ‚access to data’ has only been touched upon tangentially. And
  access to data is becoming increasingly difficult. What can we do if market players close the
  access to their data, and, if we find data available, the Research Ethics Board tells us to stop? The
  answer is simple: go to the users and ask them for the data. This approach is what the literature
  calls data donation. This paper will describe the data donation approach in detail, focusing on
  how researchers can access data through users on the current major Western platforms. The
  practical feasibility of data donation access will be illustrated based on a domestic pilot study.

  The research investigates the way users interact with leading topics of the 2018 Hungarian
  general election campaign on candidates’ Facebook pages. It expects that the prominent
  (immigration, corruption) and campaign-related topics generate more user engagement, while
  policy topics and mobilization content are less interacted. It also tests the theory of issue ownership
  in relation with user engagement. These expectations are tested on a dataset that includes all
  posts (38030 posts) posted by all candidates during the campaign (511 candidates). Topics
  are identified by text mining methods. The study demonstrates that corruption, development
  policy and campaign are highly engaged topics, while immigration was more interacted only on
  opposition politicians’ pages since the followers of pro-government candidates engage less with
  immigration-related content. The most surprising result is that a reversed issue ownership effect
  can be detected since politicians are generally less successful with their own topics.

  Introduction: Obtaining health information is an important part of health behaviour. However, there is limited data available about information gathering habits of patients. Aims: To identify different patient groups according to their information gathering habits.
  Methods: Questionnaire survey among potential patients in an outpatient clinic in Budapest. The survey consisted of the following domains: sociodemographic data; habits of visit a doctor; communications method with a specialist; use of technical devices.
  Results: The survey was completed by 260 patients (36,2% men; 63,8% women). Patients primarily get medical information from their doctors, followed by the internet, where different websites and Facebook groups are the most common sources of information. Mostly they use the internet for checking their symptoms and complaints, however searching for data about their physicians and healthcare institutions are uncommon. Patients who are young, active workers, highly educated are more active, while elderly patients and widows search less information on the internet. Conclusions: There are socio-demographic groups who are underinformed by digital healthcare related issues. Audited websites and social media releases could play an important role in
  the information gathering process of patients, and also supplement patient-doctor relationship.

  My study attempts to explore the lifestyle-based segments of the Hungarian youth through an
  innovative methodology based on social media data, incorporating the dimension of digitization
  into the creation of lifestyle groups. The examination of the segments’ lifestyle attitudes is
  assisted by a review of the related theoretical milieu approaches, international and Hungarian
  empirical milieu researches
