Abstract:

Tangible and intangible heritage values of cultural landscapes are becoming lost or transforming under the threat of rapidly changing landscapes. Researcher-oriented documenting methods are missing significant meanings of landscapes for local communities. Community-based methods can reveal both tangible and intangible heritage of landscapes without missing important values for local communities. This dissertation study proposed a community-based mixed method research to reveal and document cultural heritage or other values from the perspective of local community members in the case study ar

Abstract:

Nel campo dei mixed methods nella ricerca sociale, l’integrazione può seguire due possibili logiche generali: una prospettiva di complementarietà, secondo cui com binare strategie qualitative e quantitative sarebbe un tentativo di arricchimento informativo – per ottenere una comprensione più completa di un determinato fenomeno sociale – e una di convergenza, che pone l’attenzione sulla possibilità di superare il bias legato a singoli metodi, attraverso l’integrazione. Mentre il primo punto di vista sembra piuttosto aproblematico, sia da un punto di vista teorico che nell’implementazione empiri

This research was undertaken to achieve two main objectives. The first objective was to investigation whether working capital management (WCM) is associated with profitability of Alternative Investment Market (AIM) listed Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) companies. The second objective was to investigate through a questionnaire survey the WCM practices of AIM listed SMEs and their effect on profitability from the perspective of financial directors.

Abstract:

Despite their long trajectory in the social sciences, few systematic works analyze how often and for what purposes focus groups appear in published works. This study fills this gap by undertaking a meta-analysis of focus group use over the last 10 years. It makes several contributions to our understanding of when and why focus groups are used in the social sciences. First, the study explains that focus groups generate data at three units of analysis, namely, the individual, the group, and the interaction. Although most researchers rely upon the individual unit of analysis, the method’s

Excessive alcohol consumption is a common practice in licensed premises (Fortin, Belanger, & Moulin, 2015) and is a global problem (Graham et al., 2011). Excessive alcohol consumption poses threats to both individuals and society (Laslett et al., 2010; WHO, 2011a). Different approaches have been taken to minimise harm caused by alcohol, for example law enforcement (Wechsler, Lee, Nelson, & Lee, 2003), education (Clark, Ringwalt, Shamblen, & Hanley, 2011), and social marketing (Kubacki, Rundle-Thiele, Pang, & Buyucek, 2015).

The systemic review presented in this study is currently fully inclusive and is the most up-to-date available. Estimates of the prevalence of PTSD and HIV-related PTSD in South Africa range from 0.7 to 54.1% and, 4.2 to 40% respectively.

Abstract:

In its course of development, urban and regional planning has been greatly influenced by the modernist movement, which left human environments with various problematic ecological and social conditions. In reaction to these conditions, alternative planning approaches branched from the planning profession, one of these being the development approach known as place-making. Place-making is the physical designing of a place based on locational contexts. Place-making is offered as an alternative planning approach to current planning practice to ameliorate and possibly prevent continuation of the pro

Despite being acknowledged as intrinsic to practice “nursing assessment” has few operational definitions. This thesis critiques and reviews the methodological assumptions that underpin research and the frameworks commonly used to facilitate Concept Analysis (CA). Despite the apparent plethora of approaches to CA, the majority of them used (or adapted without justification or critique) the work of one author, and this was found to be simplistic and ontologically flawed. A review of the

Abstract:

There is a paucity of evidence into why boards such as Centro fail despite meeting normative financial governance standards. Drawing on Agency and organisational behavioural theories this mixed-method study involved developing and applying in the field a psychometrically robust measure of director financial literacy (DFL) and interviewing directors to investigate how they develop and apply this capability to financial monitoring. Findings verified that, generally, directors lack the requisite baseline DFL for financial monitoring and challenged the prevailing view that skill-based board divers

Abstract:

In this work, we investigate horizontal collaboration, mainly on road transportation, among different companies, carriers and shippers. Background motivations are: a still prevalent way of moving around goods in different parts of the world, an increasing pressure on logistic providers and an higher customer expectations about requested service. Therefore, we examine the existing literature on horizontal collaboration classifying different models and techniques used. An extensive literature review about these problems is given. We study profit, benefit and cost allocation procedure

Abstract:

The nature and characteristics of how learners learn today are changing. As technology use in learning and teaching continues to grow, its integration to facilitate deep learning and critical thinking becomes a primary consideration. The implications for learner use, implementation strategies, design of integration frameworks and evaluation of their effectiveness in learning environments cannot be overlooked. This study specifically looked at the impact that technology-enhanced learning environments have on different learners’ critical thinking in relation to eductive ability, technological se
