Full textAbstract:
On september 30th 2017 the Nordic Resistance Movement (NMR) demonstrates, on the same day as the Gothenburg book fair and the jewish holy day Yom Kippur takes place. Not least opinion piece-writers wrote about the demonstration, in newspapers fron Piteå in the north and Ystad in the south. With the use of framing theory we have, by method of quantitative analysis, analyzed 88 of the opinion pieces on the subject of NMR's right to demonstrate in Gothenburg, published in Swedish newspapers. In addition to analyzing how the writers framed NMR's right to demonstrate we have, with the qualitative method argumentation analysis, analyzed the writers' attitudes toward NMRS's right to demonstrate. We find the two most prevalent frames are legal framing (29 out of 88) and democracy framing (28 out of 88). Other than that little consensus can be found amongst the writers on the topic of NMR's right to demonstrate.

Full textAbstract:
There are two types of air forces; the US, and the others. Most of what is written today concerning airpower comes from the pens of large nations. This has led to small nations view of airpower is being characterized by the theories of larger nations. Shaun Clarke questions whether such writings are applicable to the airpowers of the world’s small nations. Clarke’s theory explores the potential of offensive airpower in the context of small sized defense forces. His airpower theory has often been praised with the exception that it’s not empirically substantiated. The aim of this study is to test and analyze the explanatory power of Clarke’s theory on the Yom Kippur War in 1973 and the Second Lebanon War in 2006 with the purpose of creating empirical evidence in support of, or against, Clarke’s theory. The results of the study are mixed. Clarke’s theory has a relatively high explanatory power about Israel’s success during the Yom Kippur War and low explanatory power during the Second Lebanon War. Finally, this study argues that smaller nations shouldn’t be discouraged from applying offensive airpower in a strategic manner.

Full textAbstract:
During the cold war small states Air Forces operated as tactical resources in coalitions led by superpowers. After the cold war small states face new threats where the ability to fight independently is crucial to survival. Most of today’s air power theories focus on superpowers and do not mention specific details about its applicability within the small state’s context which leave small states in a state of confusion regarding their creation of doctrinal focus. Shaun Clarkes air power theory focuses directly on small states Air Forces and constitutes factors that conforms to the war principle of surprise. Clarke’s theory and the principle of surprise are both in need of critical empirical studies. This study contributes by supplementing the theory with the principle and conduct a case study on the Israeli Air Force performance during the six-day war and Yom Kippur war. The result of the study strengthens the explanatory power of the theory by the conformance of its aspects with the successful operations of the six-day war while not being able to explain the operations of the less successful Yom Kippur war. The observation of underlying variables that may have affected the outcome means that the result cannot be generalized to other cases but indicates that it is an interesting aspect for small states as Sweden to consider during the creation of a doctrinal orientation.

Full textAbstract:
International marketing studies have extensively examined the antecedents of firms' marketing standardization/
adaptation decisions. However, it is unclear whether such decisions, once planned, codetermine the choice between buying and building foreign subsidiaries. Analyzing a sample of 150 foreign entries by Dutch firms, the authors find that the level of marketing adaptation planned for a wholly owned subsidiary is positively related to the likelihood that the subsidiary will be established through an acquisition rather than through a greenfield investment. Moreover, the authors find substantial evidence that this positive relationship is stronger for firms that (1) are establishing relatively larger subsidiaries, (2) have less experience with the industry entered, or (3) are entering less developed countries. The findings show that firms pursuing higher levels of marketing adaptation assign more value to the marketing adaptation advantages of acquisitions over greenfields, especially if the risks associated with implementing the planned adaptation
level are high. In addition, firms typically strive for a fit between their international marketing strategy and their mode of foreign establishment. (authors' abstract)

Full textAbstract:
This article contributes to a thriving line of research that examines issue interpretation and social accounts in order to study the adoption and diffusion of organizational concepts and management practices. It employs the empirical example of the rise of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in Austria between 1990 and 2005 to investigate the complex role institutional pressures and social positions of actors play in the local adoption of globally theorized ideas. More specifically, the study reveals distinct patterns in rhetorical CSR adoption that illustrate the initial hesitation and reluctance of an established elite in the Austrian business community towards the Anglo-American notion of 'explicit' CSR, while non-elite actors who were less favourably positioned in the social order readily embraced the concept. It is in such a sense that CSR is nevertheless instrumentalized to challenge, reinterpret, or explicitly evoke the autochthonous idea of institutionalized social solidarity. Conceptually, this research takes into account social structure, actors' positions in the social order, and resulting divergent adoption motivations - i.e. the individual, yet socially derived, relevance systems of actors - and relates them to mechanisms and processes of institutional change.

Full textAbstract:
There is increasing consensus among practitioners and academics alike that we
are in the midst of a paradigm shift from producer-centered and internal innovation processes
toward user-centered and open innovation processes. This paradigm shift induces significant
changes to the design of organizations. Even though the research field of user innovation has
been developing over a period of more than four decades, there have been only occasional
intersections with the research field of organizational design. In this article, we aim to provide
an integrated perspective of the two fields. We first identify major user innovation strategies.
We then derive the implications for each user innovation strategy on key dimensions of
organizational design.

"The Foundations of International Business: Cross-Border Investment Activity and the Balance between Market-Power and Efficiency Effects." John Wiley & Sons Ltd and Society for the Advancement of Management Studies, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/joms.12205.
Full textAbstract:
The foundational international business (IB) scholarship grappled with whether multinational enterprises (MNEs) are largely efficiency-enhancing or market-power inducing institutions. Contemporary scholarship, however, often associates foreign direct investment (FDI) with efficiency-enhancing properties and thus neglects the market-power interpretation of the MNE. Such an imbalance is problematic given that the theoretical and empirical justifications behind the field's embrace of the efficiency interpretation are not fully evident. Instead, both efficiency and market-power effects are seemingly present in cross-border investment activity. Based on a comprehensive sample of up to 4,361 cross-border investments materializing between 1986 and 2010, we present theoretically-grounded hypotheses with regard to when market-power effects will tend to dominate efficiency effects. We find that cross-border investments undertaken by emerging-market MNEs in both developed and emerging markets tend to involve substantial efficiency effects and minimal market-power effects when compared with the cross-border investments undertaken by developed-country MNEs in both developed and emerging markets.

Full textAbstract:
This study extends previous research by exploring perceptions of healthiness in the international food marketplace. To this end, it aims to fill an important gap by shedding light on the role of country of origin in shaping perceptions of healthiness. The authors provide evidence that domestic and foreign food products elicit different perceptions of healthiness. Consumers choose domestic products because they perceive them as healthier and more natural. The effect holds across different samples and product categories (apples, tomatoes, bread, and yogurt). However, this healthiness bias vanishes when products are presented as posing health risks and when products are introduced with a dual identity (i.e., both foreign and domestic). Researching these health-related effects helps provide a better understanding of consumer attitudes toward domestic- versus foreign-made food products.

In this paper, we provide an introduction to the Special Issue entitled "Divide and Rule? The Emergence and Implications of Increasingly Disaggregated and Dispersed Headquarters Activities in Contemporary Firms". The purpose is two-fold. First, we propose a conceptualization of headquarters activities as a dynamic system in which activities can be distributed organizationally and spatially. We explicitly break with the dominant view of the prior research on "the headquarters" as a single, identifiable unit in one specific location. Second, building on the manuscripts accepted for publication in this Special Issue, we outline research implications and put forward an agenda for research on the emergence and continuous management of disaggregated and dispersed headquarters systems.

Doctoral thesis, Saechsische Landesbibliothek- Staats- und Universitaetsbibliothek Dresden, 2012. http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bsz:14-qucosa-96299.
Full textAbstract:
Ärzte sind in einer multikulturellen Gesellschaft gefordert, gesundheitsrelevante kulturelle Besonderheiten wie das religiös motivierte Fasten zu berücksichtigen, welches in unterschiedlicher Ausprägung in vielen Religionen eine zentrale Rolle einnimmt. Im Judentum gibt es vierundzwanzigstündige Fastenzeiten mit strikter Nahrungs- und Flüssigkeitskarenz. Im Christentum gibt es Fasten, welche eine veränderte Zusammensetzung der Nahrung während der Fastentage vorsehen, wie das Fasten der griechisch-orthodoxen Kirche oder das Daniel Fasten, während bei römisch-katholischen oder protestantischen Fastenexerzitien oft Heilfasten mit Nahrungskarenz praktiziert werden. Im muslimischen Mondmonat Ramadan wird tagsüber sowohl auf Nahrung als auch auf Trinken verzichtet. Das Hauptziel dieser Arbeit war, die bisher erforschten Auswirkungen der verschiedenen Fastenarten auf anthropometrische Parameter, Blutfettwerte und Hämodynamik bei normalgewichtigen, gesunden Fastenden zu untersuchen. Die Literaturrecherche wurde vorwiegend in pubmed und für das Heilfasten zusätzlich in zwei Spezialbibliotheken durchgeführt. Bei der Auswertung erfolgte zur Verbesserung der Vergleichbarkeit der Ergebnisse eine Einteilung der Studien in Gruppen nach definierten Qualitätskriterien. Zur Beurteilung der Ergebnisse wurde einzeln auf die untersuchten Themenkomplexe eingegangen. Anthropometrische Parameter: Während beim Jom Kippur nur eine leichte Abnahme des Körpergewichts aufgrund von Verschiebungen im Flüssigkeitshaushalt vorkamen, konnten bei einwöchigem Heilfasten und beim Daniel Fasten keine signifikanten Ergebnisse dokumentiert werden. Beim griechisch-orthodoxen und Ramadan-Fasten zeigte sich eine Abnahmetendenz für Gewicht und Body-mass-Index (BMI), welche sich mit der Länge des Fastens zu verstärken scheint. Für keine der Fastenarten konnte bisher ein Rebound- Effekt nachgewiesen werden. Blutfette: Im Fettstoffwechsel beobachtete Veränderungen während des Jom Kippur sind aufgrund der Kürze des Fastens lediglich als passager zu bewerten. Die zum griechisch-orthodoxen und Daniel Fasten vorliegenden Studien konnten bisher die Reduktion des Gesamt- und LDL-Cholesterols belegen, während beim Heilfasten die kurzfristigen Effekte widersprüchlich erscheinen und wenig Langzeitergebnisse vorhanden sind. Beim Ramadan-Fasten war die Variabilität der Ergebnisse groß, wobei sich jedoch fast durchgehend eine Erhöhung der Werte für HDL und HDL-Cholesterol zeigte. Hämodynamik: Zusammenfassend kann man bei der dürftigen Studienlage für alle Fastenarten entweder keine Veränderung oder eine Tendenz zur Verbesserung der Blutdruckwerte sehen. Der Vergleich des menschlichen Fastens mit Grundlagenstudien zur Kalorienrestriktion oder zum intermittierenden Fasten bei Tieren, welche deutlich gesundheitsfördernde Ergebnisse zeigen, scheint nicht uneingeschränkt zulässig. Aufgrund der Studienlage kann derzeit nicht beantwortet werden, ob diese positiven Effekte auch durch regelmäßiges religiöses Fasten im menschlichen Körper erzielt werden können. Die meisten Studien zum religiösen Fasten sind Beobachtungsstudien, deren verschiedene Umgebungsbedingungen den Vergleich der Ergebnisse, insbesondere beim Ramadan-Fasten, erschweren. Bis auf wenige Ausnahmen kommen die Studien aus Ländern, in denen das jeweilige Fasten traditionell praktiziert wird. Die Arbeit zeigt den Facettenreichtum der vorhandenen religiösen Fastenpraktiken und ihre Relevanz für die heutige medizinische Praxis. Lücken in der Studienlage und qualitative Mängel der bestehenden Daten konnten aufgezeigt werden. Es bleibt zu hoffen, dass die Anzahl der qualitativ hochwertigen Studien zu allen verbreiteten Arten des Fastens weiterhin wächst und dass derzeit noch nicht medizinisch untersuchte Fasten zukünftig ebenso in die Forschung einbezogen werden<br>In a multicultural society doctors are required to consider health-related cultural features such as religious fasting, which, to varying degrees, play a central role in many religions. In Judaism fasting is a strict twenty-four hour abstention from food and fluids. In Christianity there are fasts that involve a change in the variety of foods eaten, as is the case in the Greek Orthodox Church or in the Daniel Fast, while in Roman-Catholic or Protestant fasting retreats a juice fast is often observed. In the Islamic lunar month of Ramadan food and fluid intake is restricted to the night hours only. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the findings of existing research into the impact of different kinds of religious fasting on anthropometric parameters, blood lipids and haemodynamics of healthy people. The literature research has been carried out mainly through pubmed and for the juice fast two additional, specialised libraries were consulted. For the evaluation and a better comparability of the results the studies were classified into groups, defined by specific qualitative criteria. For the purpose of evaluating the results, they were analysed in groups according to the main criteria of the study. Anthropometric parameters: while during Jom Kippur only a slight reduction of body weight due to shifts in the body\\\'s fluid balance could be observed, in a one-week juice fast and in a Daniel Fast there were no significant changes. In the Greek Orthodox and Ramadan fasts a tendency to reduction of body weight and body mass index (BMI) were observed, which seemed to intensify according to the length of the fast. In none of these fasts a rebound effect was found. Blood lipids: the changes observed in lipid metabolism during Jom Kippur should be regarded as transient due to the shortness of the fast. The studies of Greek Orthodox and Daniel fasting have shown a reduction of total and LDL cholesterol, while those examining juice fasting reveal the short term effects as contradictory, with there being only few long term results available. The results pertaining to Ramadan fasting showed a high variability, though a rise in HDL and HDL cholesterol has been quite consistently reported. Haemodynamics: in summary it can be stated, considering the very sparse number of studies in this area, that in all of the above mentioned forms of religious fasting there was either no change or a slight tendency towards a reduction of blood pressure. The comparison of human fasting to experimental studies in caloric restriction or intermittent fasting in animals, which have clearly shown health enhancing effects, does not seem unconditionally valid. Based on the current state of science no definitive answer can be given on whether regular religious fasting can generate these positive results in humans. Most studies in the field of religious fasting are observational studies with differing environmental conditions, a fact that hampers the comparison of the results, especially for the Ramadan fast. Except for few exemptions the studies all originate in countries where the respective fast is traditionally held. This study revealed the great variety within the existing religious fasting practices and their relevance for today’s medical practice. Gaps in the current state of evidence and research as well as qualitative shortcomings in the existing data where revealed. It is to be hoped that the rise in high-quality studies of all common religious fasts will continue and that fasts, not medically studied to date, will in future also become the subject of research

Full textAbstract:
Purpose -
Collaborative consumption, such as car sharing, speci
fi
cally implicates customer-to-customer interaction, which must be regulated by
service providers (companies, peers and self-regulating communities), comprising different challenges for business organizations. While in
conventional business relations, consumers are protected from undesirable customer behavior by laws, regulations (power) in the context of
collaborative consumption are rare, so that trust becomes more relevant. It is the purpose of the study to investigate possible mechanisms to
prevent undesirable customers in collaborative consumption.
Design/methodology/Approach -
In between subject designs, samples of 186 and 328 consumers
fi
lled in experimental online questionnaires
with vignettes. Analyses were made of differences among car sharing companies, private persons and car sharing communities in terms of the
power of providers, trust in providers and trust in other users of the shared goods, undesirable customer behavior and consumer -
provider relations.
Findings -
Companies, private persons and self-regulating communities differ in terms of perceived power and trust. Participants speci
fi
cally
perceive mainly coercive power with the car sharing company, but with the private person and the community, reason-based trust in other users is
perceived as prevalent. Nevertheless, undesirable customer behavior varies only marginally over the models.
Originality/value -
The present study is the first to investigate measures to prevent undesirable customer behavior over different collaborative
consumption models. This enables appropriate identification of market segments and tailoring of services. The study identifies opportunities for
companies in contrast to private persons and self-regulating communities and, in doing so, provides important stimulation for marketing strategy
and theory development.

Previous issue date: 2018-03-01<br>Com o crescimento rápido do mercado para software, a necessidade de profissionais nas
empresas de desenvolvimento está em alta, porém, há estudos que indicam um alta taxa de rotatividade de profissionais, já que profissionais mudam de empresa em um curto período de tempo. Devido a esse fato, as empresas estão preocupadas em manter seus profissionais o maior tempo possível, evitando gastos com novas contratações, treinamentos e perda de bons profissionais, pois alguns profissionais de software possuem habilidades intelectuais especializadas, e para treinar outros com o mesmo propósito, pode levar bastante tempo até que o novato se torne produtivo. Além disso, também há estudos que evidenciam que a motivação possui influência no sucesso ou fracasso de projetos, do mesmo jeito que outros relacionam a motivação com a rotatividade de profissionais de software, de modo que os profissionais busquem empregos menos estressantes, mais significativos, com mais valorização e melhores condições de trabalho. Este estudo relaciona aspectos de motivação e
rotatividade de profissionais em empresas de software no Brasil utilizando uma adaptação do modelo Job Characteristics Model (JCM) de Hackman e Oldham. Através de um questionário baseado no modelo, coletamos respostas de 102 profissionais de desenvolvimento de software no Brasil, que geraram resultados através de uma pontuação potencial motivacional (MPS). Desta forma, pudemos coletar dados de motivação dos profissionais sobre o emprego anterior. Os dados mostram que mais de 76% dos profissionais, exatamente 78 saíram do emprego anterior voluntariamente, sugerindo uma taxa alta de rotatividade de profissionais. Também conseguimos observar alguns aspectos de motivação mais críticos, observamos que 73% dos profissionais apresentaram exaustão elevada no emprego anterior, 71% possuíam baixa autonomia, e 69% sentiam baixa satisfação no trabalho. Esse estudo pode ajudar as companhias de software a entender quais são os problemas de motivação no desenvolvimento de software, visando melhorar o ambiente e cultura de trabalho para motivar os empregados,
e assim, reduzir a taxa de rotatividade de profissionais.<br>With the fast increase of the software market, the demand of professionals is also increasing, so there are studies that indicate a high rate of staff turnover, since many professionals move to other companies in a short time. Due to this reason, the companies are concerned to keep their professionals as long time as possible, avoiding costs with new hires, training and loss of good professionals, since some software professionals have specialized intellectual skills, and to train others for the same purpose, it may take a long time until the new hire becomes productive. In addition, also there are studies showing evidence that motivation has an influence on the success or failure of projects, as well as, others relate the motivation to staff turnover in software development, so the professionals look for jobs less stressful, more significant, with more appreciation and better working conditions. This study relates motivation aspects to staff turnover of software companies in Brazil, using an adaptation of the model Job Characteristics Model (JCM) of Hackman and Oldham. Through a survey instrument based on the model, we collected answers from 102 software development professionals in Brazil that generated results through motivational potential score (MPS). Thus, we could collect data of motivation of professionals over the last job. The data show that more than 76% of professionals, exactly 78 left the last job voluntarily, suggesting a high staff turnover
rate. Also, we observed some most critical motivation aspects, we identified that 73% of the professionals presented high level of exhaustion in their last job, 71% had low Autonomy, and 69% felt low satisfaction in the job. This study can help software companies to understand which are the most motivation problems in software development to improve the work environment and culture to motivate employees, and so, reduce staff turnover rate.

Full textAbstract:
An emerging literature stream posits that drawing on users rather than internal designers in new product creation may benefit firms because the resulting products effectively satisfy consumer needs. Four studies conducted in the context of the luxury fashion industry uncover an important conceptual boundary condition of this positive user-design effect. Contrary to extant research, the results show that being "close" to users does not help but rather harms luxury fashion brands. Specifically, the authors find that user design backfires because consumer demand for a given luxury fashion brand collection is reduced if the collection is labeled as user (vs. company) designed. The results further reveal the underlying rationale for this reversal: user-designed luxury products are perceived to be lower in quality and fail to signal high status, which results in a loss of agentic feelings for the consumer. The authors explore several strategies luxury brands can pursue to overcome this negative user-design effect. Finally, they find that negative outcomes of user design are attenuated for luxury fashion products that are not used for status signaling - that is, product categories of a luxury brand that are characterized by lower status relevance for the consumer.

Full textAbstract:
Fishery products, being excellent animal protein supplements, can be easily availed by all sections of people and have served to meet the nutritional requirements of population since time immemorial. However, the geometric expansion o f the global population and the slow er growth rate of the world's food production leaves a large gap between the nutritional
demands and supply, especially in the developing and under-developed countries. Pressed by growing needs, man is forever venturing forth to explore and exploit all available natural resources, through techniques old and new, and often creates a situation wherein irrational exploitation tends to deplete their availability to an alarming level. Aquatic resources are
no exception to this case. Several stocks of finfish and shellfish in the presently exploited areas have reached the maximum sustainable levels and there is no scope to step up the production further. To compensate this inadequacy, man has now taken up the task of propagating aquaculture with added impetus.

Magister Bibliothecologiae - MBibl<br>The study examines job satisfaction among research librarians in selected research libraries situated in the Western Cape region. Many studies worldwide have been done on job satisfaction in various subject fields including librarianship. The theoretical framework for this study refers however only on the Job Characteristics Model (JCM) (1976) of Hackman and Oldham. The reason why this model was chosen was because this model was the most appropriate model given the nature of the study, even though there are other models available. A brief overview of the other theoretical models namely; Maslow's (1943) hierarchy of needs and Herzberg's (1954) two factor theory of motivation are discussed as a starting point of this research study. Research librarians work under stressful conditions given the need to produce successful end results.

Full textAbstract:
High employee turnover rates are problematic in the retail banking industry because turnover increases the risk of costly regulatory compliance mistakes. The factors that predict turnover in this industry are not well understood, however. The purpose of this correlational study was to examine the relationship between the independent variables of job satisfaction, burnout, time on the job, generational identity, and the dependent variable of turnover intention for retail banking employees in the United States. Mannheim's theory of generations was the framework for this study. A random sample of 100 individuals from the banking industry responded to an online survey that combined elements of a job satisfaction survey by Babin and Boles, a turnover intention survey by Boshoff and Allen, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Results of the multiple linear regression analysis suggested statistically significant (p < .001) relationships between burnout and turnover intention �� = 0.297) and between job satisfaction and turnover intention (� = 0.683). These findings are congruent with research that shows that satisfied employees report less burnout and are more likely to remain in their job. Positive social change may occur because reduced employee turnover allows banks to serve businesses and consumers in local communities better and to accomplish their financial goals and objectives, thus potentially leading to improvements in community stability. Reduced employee turnover in turn increases the likelihood of positive contributions to economic activity, as well increased employment and improvements in the overall employment experience for retail banking employees through increased job satisfaction.

Full textAbstract:
The workforce in most industrialized countries is aging and becoming more age diverse, but few studies have examined the implications of age differences in the design of jobs. This study examined the role of age as a moderator in the relationship between job characteristics and two individual outcomes, job satisfaction and job tension. Specifically, the study focused on the relationship between social characteristics of the job (given social support, [received] social support, interdependence, interaction outside the organization, and feedback from others) and job tension and job satisfaction among Portland Water Bureau employees. Based in Socioemotional Selectivity (SES) theory (Carstensen, 1991), I hypothesized that these job characteristics would have a differential relationship with these outcomes for older and younger workers. Results showed that four of the eight hypothesized interactions were significant, providing support for age as a moderating variable. Differential interaction effects were demonstrated on job satisfaction and job tension. Further, this study incorporated a new conceptualization and measurement of the social support job characteristic (given social support), which demonstrated utility in predicting outcomes. Subjective age was also found to moderate the relationship between job satisfaction and job attitudes, but in a pattern similar to that found for chronological age. This study contributes to the existing literature by answering the call to examine the role of individual differences in the relationship between job design features and outcomes, and by increasing knowledge of the types of job characteristics that increase job satisfaction and reduce job tension for older and younger employees. Implications for the aging workforce are discussed along with future research to better understand the mediating mechanisms.

Full textAbstract:
Incidents of incivility in the workplace have continued to increase in frequency. Workplace incivility impacts the health and well-being of those who experience or witness the behavior and impacts morale, levels of engagement, attendance, retention, and overall organizational health. Researchers have explored the damage caused by workplace incivility, but few have focused on the impact of incivility among federally employed women. The purpose of this quantitative, correlational study was to examine the relationship between incivility, job satisfaction, and job stress among women working in the federal sector. The affective events theory framed this study. Online surveys were used to capture perceptions of workplace incivility while controlling for demographics (i.e., age, race, ethnicity, general schedule level, position, and tenure). Survey responses from 94 federally employed women were analyzed using a regression model. Findings revealed a negative correlation between job satisfaction and job stress, and a positive correlation between incivility and job stress. The findings can be used to create a positive social change within organizations. Organizational development professionals can use the analyses to interrupt and reverse patterns of negative workplace interactions and worker mistreatment.

Desde finales de 2019, el mundo está viviendo una pandemia que genera incertidumbre. En el Perú, el sector más afectado fue el laboral. Según INEI, la población ocupada disminuyó en 39.6%, lo que equivale a 6 millones 720 mil empleos, solo entre abril y junio del 2020. Este problema ha afectado tanto a empresas como trabajadores, pero los que más se vieron perjudicados fueron los practicantes pre profesionales, es decir, estudiantes universitarios que recién empezaban sus prácticas y los que estaban en búsqueda de ellas.
Por ello, se decidió desarrollar Hurry Job, un aplicativo móvil para estudiantes universitarios que se encuentren en búsqueda de prácticas pre profesionales en la modalidad part time. En ese sentido, este proyecto se enfoca en ser un vínculo entre estudiantes y empresas que se encuentren en búsqueda de practicantes pre profesionales con disponibilidad para trabajar media jornada, consiguiendo así beneficios para ambas partes.
Para realizar el trabajo, se validó el proyecto mediante entrevistas hacia ambos segmentos. También, se desarrollaron experimentos utilizando el landing page y concierge del servicio. Asimismo, se calculó el tamaño del mercado, delimitando el negocio a medianas y grandes empresas de Lima Metropolitana. Los segmentos objetivos para Hurry Job fueron el tipo de empresas mencionadas anteriormente y estudiantes universitarios en búsqueda de prácticas pre profesionales. Por último, se realizará un plan financiero, que incluya los principales ratios financieros, el Balance General y el Estado de Resultados, para analizar la viabilidad del negocio en términos monetarios.<br>Since the end of 2019, the world has been experiencing a pandemic that generates uncertainty. In Peru, the most affected sector was labor. According to INEI, the employed population decreased by 39.6%, which is equivalent to 6 million 720 thousand jobs, only between April and June 2020. This problem has affected both companies and workers, but those who were most affected were pre-practitioners professionals, that is, university students who were just starting their internships and those who were looking for them.
Therefore, it was decided to develop Hurry Job, a mobile application for university students who are looking for pre-professional practices in the part time mode. In this sense, this project focuses on being a link between students and companies that are in search of pre-professional practitioners with availability to work part-time, thus achieving benefits for both parties.
To carry out the work, the project was validated through interviews with both segments. Also, experiments were developed using the landing page and the service's concierge. Likewise, the size of the market was calculated, delimiting the business to medium and large companies in Lima Metropolitana. The target segments for Hurry Job were the type of companies mentioned above and university students looking for pre-professional practices. Finally, a financial plan will be made, including the main financial ratios, the Balance Sheet and the Income Statement, to analyze the viability of the business in monetary terms.<br>Trabajo de investigación

Full textAbstract:
Bakgrund: Vård av god kvalité innebär vård där sjuksköterskan känner medlidande med patienten och upplever inre tillfredställelse av att göra det. Det är sjuksköterskor och patienter eniga om. Sjuksköterskor som inte lyckas uppleva compassion satisfaction kan hamna i ett tillstånd som heter compassion fatigue vilket är ett tillstånd som har sin grund i höga påfrestningar som uppstår i arbetet. Syfte: Att beskriva sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att hitta kraft av att vårda. Metod: En allmän litteraturöversikt genomfördes på två kvantitativa artiklar och elva kvalitativa artiklar. Analysen genomfördes enligt Friberg. Resultat: Resultatet visade på flera olika faktorer som leder till känslan av glädje och motivation i yrket som sjuksköterska. Fyra olika kategorier uppenbarades: mellanmänsklig bekräftelse, moralisk tillfredställelse, existentiell tillfredställelse, professionellt erkännande och utveckling. Kategorierna beskriver källor till tillfredställande och till kraft att fortsätta inom professionen. Exempel på dessa faktorer är: att få chans att göra skillnad för patienten, att kunna vara autonom och att få bekräftelse från arbetskollegor och ledningen. Slutsats: Sjuksköterskor kan finna kraft i att vårda dock finns det även sjuksköterskor som inte lyckas uppleva compassion satisfaction. Mer kunskap om compassion satisfaction kan gynna sjuksköterskor i framtiden.<br>Background: Good quality care means nursing with compassion and experiencing inner satisfaction of doing so. Nurses and patients are in agreement on that. Nurses who fail to experience compassion satisfaction can end up in a state called compassion fatigue which is a condition that is due to the high stresses that arise at work. Aim: To describe nurses' experiences of achieving a sense of power through care. Method: A general literature review was conducted on two quantitative articles and eleven qualitative articles. The analysis was conducted according to Friberg Result: The results showed different factors that bring forth a sense of joy and motivation in the nursing profession. Four different categories were revealed: interpersonal confirmation, moral satisfaction, existential satisfaction, professional recognition and development. The categories describe different sources of satisfaction and the empowering elements that supports retention in the profession. Examples of factors are: a chance to make a difference for the patient, being able to be autonomous and getting confirmation from colleagues and the management. Conclusions: Nurses can find power in caring, however, there are also nurses who fail to experience compassion satisfaction. More knowledge about compassion satisfaction can benefit nurses in the future.

Thesis advisor: Rebekah Levine Coley<br>In recent decades, the average age of the United States workforce has been on the rise, a trend that is expected to continue as the Baby Boomer generation, which constitutes the largest segment in the workforce in this country, reaches older adulthood. The aging of the workforce has raised concerns from researchers, policy-makers, and organizations. As a result, there have been calls for research regarding how experiences at work vary across the life-span, although few studies have addressed this topic. To begin to address this gap in the literature, this dissertation aims to explore the association between job demands and well-being and how the processes employees use to cope with job demands vary with age. Using data from two waves of Midlife in the United States: A National Study of Health and Well-Being, with a sample of over 7,000 working adults ranging from ages 20 to 83, I attempt to integrate the Job Demands-Control-Support Model with the Life-Span Theory of Control in order to examine how multiple factors influence the relationship between job demands and well-being outcomes across the life-span. Results of random effects linear regression models show that job demands were negatively related to job satisfaction and mental health and that the relationship between job demands and job satisfaction was weakest at younger ages and remained constant after midlife. With regard to the factors that moderate the relationships with job demands, findings indicated that job control and job support buffered the relationship with job satisfaction, while job support buffered the relationship with mental health. The buffering roles of job control and job support were found to vary based on levels of primary and secondary control for workers of different ages. Findings are discussed in terms of their implications for both workplace theory and developmental theories, which help to provide a better understanding of how work experiences vary across the life-span<br>Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2013<br>Submitted to: Boston College.

The thesis deals with important and festive days in the Jewish calendar. It studies their origin both in historical context and in the context of celebrations and customs observed during the festivals. It deals with the festivals both from the religious point of view, i.e. religious commands and orders, and from the societal point of view where it aims at mapping the customs and traditions which are followed but which are not based on religious texts or rabbi tradition. The scope of the text dedicated in the thesis to specific festivals does not strictly copy the religious importance or the popularity of a particular festival with Jewish population; rather, it is guided by the scope of historical background and customs followed in connection with the festival. As a result, some less popular festivals in the society are more prominent than it would have been expected judging by their importance. The thesis presents individual festivals in the chronological order of the religious year, with the exception of Shabbat which is observed every week and Rosh Chodesh celebrated monthly. These festivals were included before other festivals and make up a separate chapter. The broad scope of the thesis encompassing all festive days, including modern festivals, mostly established by the State of Israel, enables...

Full textAbstract:
<p>Synthetic efforts directed at preparing certain target molecules highlight deficiencies in the synthetic technology currently available to chemists. Enolates are among the most important synthetic intermediates for synthesis, but general means for enolate functionalizations are not available for many transformations. In order to address these limitations in synthetic technology, novel enantioselective transformations are developed and applied to total syntheses of biologically active natural products.</p>
<p>First, to address the challenge of generating all-carbon quaternary stereocenters, a palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation reaction is discovered and optimized for allyl enol carbonate and silyl enol ether substrate classes. Certain enolate precursors are not accessible using these substrates, and therefore a method employing racemic allyl β-ketoester substrates is developed. In addition to solving the problem of regiospecific enolate generation, these transformations are conceptually interesting due to the stereoablative enantioconvergent mechanism.</p>
<p>Studies of the mechanism of the above transformation suggest the intermediacy of a chiral palladium enolate. Since enolate functionalization reactions are valuable to synthetic chemistry and general protocols are rare, different electrophiles are explored in addition to the allyl electrophiles used in quaternary center formation. These studies lead to the discovery of enantioselective protonation reactions generating tertiary stereocenters.</p>
<p>To demonstrate the importance of enantioselective enolate functionalization reactions in synthesis, the allylic alkylation reaction is applied in the total synthesis of cassiol and the formal synthesis of platencin.</p>

碩士<br>國立臺灣師範大學<br>工業教育學系在職進修碩士班<br>101<br>This study was aimed at conducting survey on teachers working for vocational high school rotating cooperative education program so as to discover the present situations and relationship between their job stress and self-efficacy. In this case, the result of this study may serve as a reference for vocational high schools with rotating cooperative education program and relevant educational institutes to establish policies in the future. This study selects teachers working for public as well as private vocational high school rotating cooperative education programs throughout the island as the study subject. There are 54 vocational high schools and 14 different departments in total. Moreover, this study designs “Vocational High School Rotating Education Program Teacher’s Job Stress and Self-efficacy Questionnaire” to serve as the study tool and the collected data is processed and analyzed in the quantitative manner.
The study result indicates that the job stress of teachers working for vocational high school rotating cooperative education program is relatively high, while their self-efficacy is relatively low. Concerning the aspect of job stress, married teachers, teachers with fundamental educational background, teachers with less years of teaching experience, teachers with less professional certificates, teachers with more teaching hours per week, and teachers working for public schools appear to have more apparent job stress than unmarried teachers, teachers with advanced educational background, teachers with more years of teaching experience, teachers with more professional certificates, teachers with less teaching hours per week and teachers working for private schools. As for the aspect of self-efficacy, teachers with advanced educational background, teachers with more years of teaching experience, teachers with more professional certificates, and teachers working for private schools appear to have more apparent self-efficacy than teachers with fundamental educational background, teachers with less years of teaching experience, teachers with less professional certificates, and teachers working for public schools. On the other hand, the relationship between their job stress and self-efficacy is negative.
Lastly, this study proposes relevant suggestions based on the consequence of statistic analysis to serve as a reference for educational institutes, schools, teachers working for vocational high school rotating cooperative education program, and future studies to concern about the issue of lowering job stress and improving self-efficacy.

Full textAbstract:
Proper synthesis and targeting of membrane proteins that contain hydrophobic transmembrane domains are mediated by chaperones and targeting factors. Tail-anchored (TA) proteins are a special class of membrane proteins that are characterized by a single carboxy (C) terminal helix that anchors them to biological membranes. Fungal Guided Entry of Tail-anchored protein (GET) pathway components, which include four soluble proteins—Sgt2, Get3, Get4, Get5—and two membrane bound receptors—Get1 and Get2—mediate TA biogenesis. These proteins maintain TA protein solubility in the aqueous cytosol and target TA to the endoplasmic reticulum. While most of the components are conserved in metazoans, one additional protein, Bag6, reorganizes the sorting complex from the heterotetrameric Get4-5 to the heterotrimeric Bag6-TRC35-Ubl4A. To understand the molecular architecture and mechanism of the Bag6 complex, we took a multidisciplinary approach that combines x-ray crystallography, biochemical reconstitution, and cell biology. Our studies demonstrate that the BAG domain of Bag6 is not a canonical BAG domain. Instead, main role of the Bag6 'mock' BAG domain is to dimerize with Ubl4A. Furthermore, the truncated Bag6 complex defined in this study is sufficient to facilitate substrate transfer from SGTA to TRC40. Lastly, our results unequivocally establish TRC35 as a cytoplasmic retention factor for Bag6. These results provide structural, biochemical and cell biological bases for modular Bag6 function and regulation of nucleocytoplasmic distribution of Bag6 by TRC35.

When Taiwan joined the WTO, it influenced the farmers to keep on going their business due to more new banks and worst international financial. Farmers is like local public corporate. The Director-General has the power in personnel appointments and it is more burdened in staff promotion because of the regional clearance of interpersonal. It is difference with Public and Private corporate in the education and quality of Farmers staff. By this study, I want to research the correlation among Personality traits, Leadership style of director, Work stress and Job performance to provide some suggestion to the managers and directors of farmers.
In this study, we discussed on the correlation among Personality traits, Leadership style of director, Work stress and Job performance as an example of all Farmers in Tainan. I totally issued 380 copies of survey questionnaires. There are 255 copies are valid and the effective recovery is 67.11%. In this study, I researched by Analysis of Variance, correlation analysis, the impact of inter-variable analysis methods such as statistical analysis.
The results were showed as follows:
1.There was a significant difference among Personality traits, Leadership style of director, Work stress and Job performance. It means that Personality traits and Leadership style of director are affirmative with Work stress and Job performance
2.There was a significant difference among personal attributes (gender, age, service, length of service, the academic qualifications, job title, etc.), personality traits, leadership style, work stress and job performance
3.Farmers staff is willing to service and listen to their customers. They also response about the customer problems actively and satisfied what the customer wanted. As a result, they have less work stress, the job satisfaction is good. Of course, the job performance is positive, too.

The subjects of this study are civil servants in all agencies and schools in Kaohsiung City, who received official approval by the Ministry of Civil Service, excluding police, fire authorities, public utilities and other special authorities.
The results showed that job characteristics had significant negative effects on job burnout, and a significant positive effect on job engagement. The “awareness and willingness” to job rotation showed no moderating effects on the relationship between job characteristics and job burnout; but job rotation significantly moderates the relationship between the “autonomy” dimension of job characteristics and job burnout. The “awareness and willingness” to job rotation significantly moderates the relationship between the “task variety” dimension of job characteristics and job engagement; and job rotation moderates the relationship between the “task variety” dimension of job characteristics and job engagement. Therefore, if public units can improve their training and education for civil servants to gain their understanding about job rotation, thus implementing job rotation, it will be able to reduce job burnout and enhance their job engagement, thereby improving the public image for civil servants.

碩士<br>淡江大學<br>管理科學研究所<br>85<br>The main purpose of this research is to discuss the relationship
between job attribution, organization climate, job stress and
satisfaction in career military officers.Hopefully, based on the
results of the research, we will have basic understanding of job
satisfaction for career military officers so that it can become
an important reference on strategy and planning for military
human resources.This research is based on study of 129 valid
copies of survey of career military personnel by utilizing
collection information and processing analysis. After a series
of statistical calculation on T inspection and variance
analysis, the research results are as followings:1. It shows
that job stress and job satisfaction are opposite relation,
organization climate and job satisfaction are positive relation.
According to this relationship, it is the same between private
industries and career military officers.2. There is an variance
for career military officers facing organization climate, job
stress and job satisfaction because of each individual''s job
attribution. For examples: a. Salary satisfaction: The college
level personnel has lower satisfaction than the non-college
level personnel. b. In a pleasant, motivated, stable, and
competitive organization climate, employees have higher
satisfaction in promotion, direct supervision and salaries.
c. Job stress: The management has lower job stress than the
non-management. d. Military rank: There is an obvious variance
in job satisfaction between Lieutenant and non-Lieutenant.
e. Years of services: There is and significant difference in
job stress and satisfaction between the person with 6-10
years of service and the person without 6-10 years of
service.3. On the whole, career military officers have very
high stability in nature, and there is not much variance in job
stress and job satisfaction in them. Only in military rank (
Lieutenant and non-Lieutenant) and years of services (6-10 years
of service) there are obvious variances in job stress and job
satisfaction. This is because of the very important connection
of the job attribution and the shorter career life. Compared to
private industry personnel, it is obviously different. Based on
above findings, hopefully, it is not only a helpful reference
for military human resources department to utilize man power,
but also it is a further study direction in future for military
