Abstract:
Purpose – This paper aims to investigate the paradox of whether prestigious goods help or inhibit a consumer’s social affinity. The goal of this research is to explore whether pursuit of prestigious goods increases consumers’ social affinity or decreases their social affinity, and, more importantly, to understand the mechanisms that drive this process. Design/methodology/approach – Three laboratory experimental studies and a social network study are conducted to show that consumers hold inconsistent beliefs about the social implication of prestigious goods. Findings – In Study 1, the authors showed that prestigious goods evoked stronger social affinity for the self than for the other. In Study 2, the authors showed that people evaluated themselves high in social affinity when they brought a prestigious wine to a party compared to when they brought a cheaper, generic wine, but evaluated others low in social affinity when they brought the same prestigious wine. In Study 3, the authors showed the mediating effects of social image and boastfulness on social affinity. Study 4 utilizes social network study to further validate previous findings in a field setting. Practical implications – For high-end retailers, the authors suggest framing their promotional messages to explicitly highlight how owning prestigious goods will benefit them (i.e. social image). It is important that these retail managers (and salespeople alike) make it more salient on how their prestigious goods socially benefit the consumer (the self). Thus, it is important to get consumers to think about how a prestigious item looks on them and not on others. However, marketers must be prudent when constructing these messages, as the link between prestigious consumption and network development is merely perceptual. Originality/value – The findings demonstrate that consuming prestigious goods increases social affinity via positive social image for the self. When evaluating others, the authors demonstrate that consuming prestigious goods decreases social affinity via boastfulness. In sum, owning prestigious items may seem beneficial socially to the self, but people have negative perceptions (boastfulness) of those who own the same prestigious goods. Hence, there seems to be a discrepancy in how the authors evaluate themselves versus how they evaluate others with the same prestigious goods.

Abstract:
This paper examines “technology geek” through the social psychological lens of stigma. The research expands on an aspect of stigma that can materialize in work settings but has not been fully explicated in prior stigma theory, namely, prestige. The authors argue that a stigma may be worn with pride rather than shame, typified by the case of the technology geek, called “prestigious stigma.” The theory building focuses on interactions between the technology geek and others in the organization, positing that prestigiously stigmatized individuals behave in ways that differ from what social psychologists have generally posited for the stigmatized. This effort culminates in a model of mixed interaction involving the technology geek, which extends prior stigma theory and provides insights for practice and future research regarding technology professionals in organizations.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO<br>Este trabalho situa-se no contexto das pesquisas que investigam as instituições escolares consideradas de excelência. Objetivou identificar o clima de uma escola de prestígio, orientado pelas características das escolas eficazes. Pretendeu articular as dimensões macro e micro, que permitissem uma aproximação à singularidade da instituição. Na primeira parte foram construídos perfis de alunos, pais e professores, a partir de um survey realizado pelo SOCED - Grupo de Pesquisa em Sociologia da Educação da PUC-Rio, do qual participo, na pesquisa Processos de Produção de Qualidade de Ensino, da qual constam nove escolas consideradas pela mídia, como algumas das melhores da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Na segunda parte, foi realizado um trabalho de campo, buscando um olhar mais próximo, que apontasse as peculiaridades e as razões de sua distinção no universo pesquisado. O clima escolar da instituição, recorte específico desta pesquisa, parece decorrer, principalmente, da forma como se articulam os recursos disponíveis, a partir do engajamento e a predisposição da maioria dos agentes escolares, para superação das dificuldades, e o fortalecimento das equipes.<br>This study finds itself in the context of other similar investigations dealing with school institutions considered of superior quality. It was aimed at identifying the general atmosphere of a prestigious educational institution, emphasizing the characteristics of such efficient organizations. It attempted to articulate both macro and micro perspectives, which would then allow us to narrow down the singularity of this institution. During the first half of the study, student, parent and staff profiles were built based on previous research conducted by SOCED - Research Group in Education Sociology from PUC- Rio, which I am part of, titled Teaching Quality Production Process, where nine institutions, crowned by local media as some of Rio de Janeiro s finest schools, were included. During the second half, a field research was conducted attempting to take a closer look at some of the peculiarities and reasons that set this institution apart from others in the same researched universe. The institution s school climate - the specific focus of this research - seems to be the result of how available resources are articulated, and triggered by the engagement and the predisposition of the majority of the school agents to overcome dificulties and strengthen its teams.

Abstract:
This dissertation explores the relationship between class formation, women's religious practices, and domesticity among the Pustimarg Vaisnav mercantile communities (baniyas) of Gujarat. It argues that in modern India, Pustimarg women's religious activities inform baniya class formation and respectability on the one hand, and constitute the domestic patronage of Pustimarg on the other. Women's social and religious practices thus come to be centrally implicated in the question of what it means to be a Pustimarg Vaisnav in the modern world. Using archival and textual sources, I begin by unpacking the social and economic histories of baniya communities in both pre-colonial and colonial contexts, and trace their emergence as Pustimarg's most prestigious patrons. Throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, in emulation of Rajasthani nobility, baniyas publically displayed wealth and prestige through donative activities centered around both Pustimarg temple ritual (seva, "service"), and gifts offered to the Brahmin religious leaders of the tradition, the Gosvamis. As "class" begins to emerge as a discrete marker of status in colonial India, upper-caste Pustimarg women are positioned as vital actors in the production of family prestige and respectability within the domestic sphere. In this dissertation, I therefore focus on Pustimarg baniya negotiations with modernity and identify baniya men's concerns around sectarian identity as they come to be dramatized in nineteenth and early twentieth-century social reform movements centered upon women in the Bombay Presidency (including the well-known "Maharaj Libel Case" of 1862). This study also turns to traditional sources, such as Pustimarg hagiographic literature (vartas) and devotional songs composed by women in the dhol and garba genres, in order to understand the religious practices of women in these communities and their relationship to the production of prestige. My analysis of the vartas provides a sense of women's social roles and positions in the Pustimarg imagination, while women's performance genres provide an important counterpoint to the much-celebrated "official" liturgical music of Pustimarg temples (havelis). In the final chapter of the dissertation I draw on my ethnographic work to demonstrate how, in the contemporary context, the imbrication of material and religious cultures is seen through the performance of increasingly commodified styles of domestic ritual and through the consumption and display of religious commodities in the home. Recently, women from upper-class Pustimarg families have also begun taking lessons in what they regard as the "classical" style of temple or haveli music. All these processes, I argue, cast women as the producers, performers, and pedagogues of elite Pustimarg sectarian identities. The material expressions of their devotion in domestic contexts as well as women's religious practices – which includes performing seva daily, organizing religious gatherings in the home, and participating in temple music lessons – have reconstituted the home as a modern site of Pustimarg patronage.<br>Cette thèse analyse la relation entre constitution d'une classe, pratiques religieuses des femmes et espace privé, au sein de la communauté marchande Visnouiste Pustimarg du Gujarat. Il s'agit de montrer, d'une part, que, dans l'Inde moderne, les activités religieuses accomplies par les femmes Pustimarg participent à la formation de la caste baniya et à sa reconnaissance, et que, d'autre part, ces pratiques représentent un appui fondamental à la secte Pustimarg dans l'espace domestique. Les pratiques sociales et religieuses des femmes constituent ainsi un élément central pour comprendre ce que signifie être Visnouiste Pustimarg dans le monde actuel. À partir d'archives et de sources écrites, je commence par mettre à jour l'histoire sociale et économique des communautés baniya durant la période pré-coloniale et coloniale, de manière à montrer comment ces communautés sont devenues les mécènes les plus prestigieux du Pustimarg. Tout au long des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles, imitant la noblesse du Rajasthan, les baniya manifestent publiquement leur prospérité et leur distinction en faisant des offrandes rituelles dans les temples Pustimarg (seva, « service »), ou par le biais de dons remis aux maîtres brahamanes de la tradition, les Gosvamis. Alors que la « classe » s'impose comme marqueur d'appartenance sociale dans l'Inde coloniale, les femmes de la haute société Pustimarg tiennent une place essentielle dans l'élaboration du prestige et de la reconnaissance de la famille au sein de l'espace privé. Dans ce travail, je m'intéresse à la manière dont les baniya Pustimarg négocient leur passage dans la modernité. J'examine les questions que posent l'identité sectaire notamment aux hommes baniya dans le contexte des mouvements de réformes sociales pour les femmes qui ont lieu dans la Province de Bombay au XIXe et début XXe siècle (par exemple dans le très connu « Cas Maharaj Libel » en 1862).Pour comprendre les pratiques religieuses des femmes ainsi que leur rôle dans la reconnaissance de la communauté, je m'appuie également sur des sources traditionnelles, telle que la littérature hagiographique Pustimarg (vartas) et les chants de dévotion dhol ou garba composés par les femmes. L'analyse des vartas montre le rôle social de ces femmes et leur place dans l'imaginaire Pustimarg. Elle révèle également que les genres réservés aux femmes constituent un pendant important aux chants liturgiques officiels et plus célèbres des temples Pustimarg. Dans le dernier chapitre de cette thèse, une approche ethnographique permet de montrer comment, dans le contexte contemporain, le mélange de culture matériel et spirituel est perceptible dans des rituels privés de plus en plus tournés vers la consommation ainsi que l'acquisition et l'exposition d'objets religieux dans la maison. Récemment, des femmes de la haute société Pustimarg ont commencé à prendre des leçons sur ce qu'elles considèrent comme le style « classique » des temples, la musique haveli. L'ensemble de ces phénomènes confère aux femmes les rôles de productrice, actrice et témoin de l'identité Pustimarg chez les élites. Les formes matérielles de la dévotion dans l'espace domestique, de même que les pratiques religieuses des femmes (la pratique quotidienne du seva, l'organisation de réunion à la maison, les leçons de musique au temple) font aujourd'hui de la maison le lieu central du Pustimarg.

Abstract:
Croisant la psychologie sociale et la psychodynamique du travail avec l’histoire et la sociologie, cette thèse est consacrée aux femmes sénégalaises qui exercent des professions prestigieuses où les hommes sont encore majoritaires. Sont questionnés leur origine sociale,familiale, leur parcours scolaire et professionnel, leur modèle de féminité, ainsi que leur rapport au travail, au management et enfin à la conjugalité. La méthode qualitative est le récit de vie. La méthode boule de neige a permis de recruter trente femmes dirigeantes dans les domaines politiques, universitaires, de la fonction publique et de l’entreprise. L’enquête de terrain a été réalisée entre 2013 et 2017. Elle a concerné 17 femmes des milieux aisés et 13 issues de familles des classes moyennes et populaires. Les analyses montrent que les femmes, dans les bastions masculins, partagent la fatigue ressentie à se battre pour se faire une place et exercer une autorité qui leur est sans cesse disputée. En revanche, toutes n’ont pas souhaité s’exprimer sur les incidences du travail sur la vie personnelle ou encore sur le coût de la transgression. Ces questions ont suscité malaise et résistance. La plupart des interviewées sont connues du grand public et de ce fait, veulent préserver une image de femme leader ou manager héroïque. Si les résultats de cette enquête sont limités, ils permettent néanmoins d’ouvrir des pistes de réflexion sur les stratégies mises en oeuvre pour transgresser les « frontières du genre ». Les entretiens ont montré que la plupart des femmes dirigeantes se comportent en femmes traditionnelles dans l’espace privé et qu’elles tendent à surjouer la féminité pour conserver l’amour du conjoint ou pour que le couple« sauve la face ». La transgression dans l’espace public est modulée par le renforcement des normes de genre dans l’espace privé. Ce travail a impliqué de resituer les entretiens dans le contexte de la colonisation, des luttes d’indépendances, de la scolarisation des filles et du féminisme sénégalais, ainsi que de relever les particularités des usages locaux du concept de genre en lien avec les pratiques des ONG. Enfin, la thèse met en évidence l’importance d’analyser du point de vue de l’intersectionnalité les rapports entre genre et générations<br>Combining social psychology and the psychodynamics of employment with history and sociology, this thesis is devoted to Senegalese women who practice prestigious professions where men are still the majority. Their social, family, educational and professional background, their model of femininity and their relationship to work, management and finally conjugality are questioned. The qualitative method is the story of their life. The Snowball Method has enabled us to recruit thirty women leaders in the political, academic,public service and corporate fields. The field survey was conducted between 2013 and 2017. It involved 17 women from affluent backgrounds and 13 from families of the middle and popular classes. The analyzes show that women, in male bastions, share the fatigue felt in fighting for a place and exercising an authority that is constantly disputed. On the other hand, not everyone wanted to speak about the impact of work on their personal lives or the cost of transgression. These issues aroused discomfort and resistance. Most of the interviewees are known to the general public and, as such, want to preserve the image of a woman leader or heroic manager. Although the results of this survey are limited, they nonetheless allow us to open avenues for reflection on the strategies implemented to transgress the "gender frontiers". The interviews showed that most women leaders behave like traditional women in the private space and that they tend to over play femininity to preserve the love of their partner so that the couple "saves face". The transgression in the public space is modulated by the reinforcement of norms of gender in the private space. This work involved resituating interviews in the context of colonization, struggles for independence, girls' schooling and Senegalese feminism, as well as highlighting the peculiarities of local uses of the concept of gender in relation to the practices of NGOs. Finally, the thesis highlights the importance of analyzing the relations between gender and generations through intersectionality

Abstract:
With the expansion of higher education in recent decades, exclusive academic qualifications have become the prominent way in which the status hierarchy of education is preserved. Much of the previous research explaining social class differences in educational attainment have focused on cognitive ability but largely overlooked the importance of non-cognitive skills for enrolling in more prestigious educational fields. Using unique longitudinal data, the focus of this thesis is on childhood non-cognitive skills to explore their role for understanding the association between social class of origin and selection into prestigious university education in Sweden. The results confirm class differences in attending prestige education, but also show that non-cognitive skills cannot explain much of the variation in educational attainment between or within classes. More research is needed in order to fully understand the large class gap in prestigious academic outcomes in Sweden.

Cambio de aceites 2. Reparación tren delantero 3. Alineación y Balanceo de Neumáticos 4. Venta de Baterías 5. Venta de Accesorios (Puntas cromadas de escape, llaveros, fragancias, gorros, polerones etc.) 6. Venta de Filtro de Aire, Aceite y Bencina Todo esto, con una propuesta de servicio orientada a los clientes que busquen optimizar sus tiempos, conectividad, transparencia, garantía y seguridad en las reparaciones o mantenciones realizadas, por ello la propuesta de Autofire se dirigirá a un segmento especifico e importante del mercado el cual ha tenido un crecimiento en los últimos años que supera el 10% promedio y que los expertos esperan que crezca en un 5% en los siguientes años, este segmento son los “vehículos livianos”, según clasificación de “Matriz 4.3: Tipo de Clientes” de los anexos, donde se identifican tres tipos de clientes: Personas naturales, Empresas y Talleres mecánicos o referenciadores. Nuestra propuesta se orienta específicamente al segmento Personas Naturales y específicamente a los profesionales, que trabajan de forma continua ya que por sus labores no pueden llevar su vehículo a mantención y por lo tanto valoran el tiempo que tienen prefiriendo a aquellas actividades de mayor importancia, como es la familia, trabajo o divertirse. Por otro lado hemos realizado un análisis de los competidores existentes con las características de los servicios y cobertura que prestan según la Matriz 4.2.1-1 Análisis Estrategias de Competidores de los anexos de los cuales los clasificamos en tres tipos: los Big de enfoque a todo tipo de vehículo de cobertura regional y nacional, asociados a marcas exclusivas de neumáticos y de lubricantes de primera línea (Good Year, Firestone y Móvil); los Medium de cobertura solo a vehículos livianos en la ciudad de Chillán, están asociados a una marca de neumáticos exclusiva, pero de segunda línea (Hang Kook, Pirelly, Etc.), pero no son exclusivos en lubricantes y los Small: de cobertura a vehículos livianos en la ciudad de Chillán y no están asociados a ninguna marca de neumáticos ni de lubricantes. Nuestra propuesta diferenciadora de segmento competirá con los oferentes tipo Small y nuestro mercado objetivo para lanzamiento serán los clientes tipo A y C, ya que los clientes tipo B no son nuestro objetivo. Para irrumpir en el mercado implementaremos una propuesta nueva que atienda las necesidades de tiempo, conectividad, seguridad y transparencia de los clientes, lo que llevaremos a cabo a través de la conexión de nuestra cultura de transparencia mezclada con el uso herramientas de ultima generación, análisis de datos y sobre todo de tecnologías de conectividad, lo que nos permitirá obtener un resultado altamente atractivo de un valor actual neto de 138 millones descontados a una tasa de 17,6% y obteniendo un retorno de 51% a una utilidad liquida promedio del 15% en los 5 años de evaluación.

Abstract:
Petr Hruska (born 1964) is a poet and literary historian from Ostrava. This post-industrial city used to be famous for its black coal mines and steel factories. At the time of the industrial boom, Ostrava started to be a �melting pot� of nations living in this part of Central Europe � the Czechs, Poles, Germans from Silesia, Austrians, Jews, and Slovaks. No wonder, then, that the cultural life of this region differs from that in traditional centres of Czech culture like Prague or Brno. Nevertheless, Hruska�s collections of poems have been awarded the most prestigious Czech literary prizes and are more and more often translated into foreign languages. The following essay is based on the book of Hruska�s selected poems, translated at the Harvard University and published in Britain (Everything Indicates, 2023). After the analyses of Hruska�s main themes and means of their verbal expression, attention must be paid to how he deals with the interplay between the history of individuals and families versus broader social and political contexts. Of course, describing this tension is quite common among artists and experts in social sciences. However, Hruska�s literary texts are in many aspects unconventional because his way of thinking and expression does not follow the typical stylistic norms of both classical and modernist poetry. The methodology of comparative literary studies must be used here because, without it, the international success of the author from a cultural periphery cannot be adequately understood. In his early poems, Hruska was a representative of so-called everyday poetry settled in a small universe of his family and friends. Nevertheless, in his newest collection, I Caught Sight of My Face (Spatril jsem svou tvar, 2022), he takes part in Magellan�s voyage around the world, reflecting on the transient and the eternal aspects of human life. It seems that there is no significant difference between intimate and social history, and Hruska can express it in simple sentences with no complicated metaphors. In the chaos of the postmodern world, this kind of writing can be attractive even for readers who are not fond of traditional poetry.

Abstract:
The title of this scientific essay implicitly emphasizes the application goal. Hypothesis: the differences in most indicators of somatic, mental and social health are small (or non-existent) between countries with the formally largest number of weekly physical education lessons in primary schools and those with the smallest number (apart from countries where PE is marginalized). The empirical argumentation of the authors of the 'physiotherapist in every school' project, although sufficient at this stage, is merely a kind of encouragement for researchers and teams from around the world. The implications concern at least two elementary methodological issues. First, the most valuable knowledge about phenomena indicating the counter-effective PE paradigm in many respects can already be published in many natural languages, unavailable in the global scientific space. Second, the idea of replacing PE teachers in schools with preventive medicine experts requires systemic implementations that will most likely cause resistance from many interest groups. As humanity, we are probably at the peak of ‘the turning point’, not only in the sense described by Fritjof Capra (1982). Since the dynamics of depletion of natural resources is still one of the key indicators of identifying this peak, there is no visible turn in the direction that Capra so simply and accurately appealed for: ‘we should invest more in people, our only wealth, which we have in abundance’. Anyone who identifies with the hypothesis on the supreme value criteria of the global civilization should rather not question the validity of preventive medicine as a subject of school education and INNOAGON as science and its mission. However, one may ask a basic question about the way or ways of investing these innovations in people. The answer is only seemingly trivial: effectively, healthily (this term includes ‘safely’), in deeply humanized and attractive forms.

Abstract:
Recently, social responsible investment has experienced exceptional growth. For that reason, many listed companies pretend to have adopted guidelines and values proclaimed by prestigious internac-ional organizations as the UNO or the OECD. In fact, to adhere such guidelines is a requisite to be in-cluded in most socially responsible stock indices. In this paper we search for irresponsible behaviour by Spanish companies included in some of the world most preminent sustainable stock indices. The main result is that most of the companies have been actually critized by prestigious NGOs, so their identification as socially responsible should be questioned.

Abstract:
Within the initiative of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) promoted by the UN within the global project "Agenda 2030", one of the elements in which the University has a direct impact is the Objective number 4 of "Quality Education”. Providing university students not only with theories and knowledge, but also giving them tools and references that help them face their professional future with the commitment to work for a sustainable world is one of the most commendable tasks of the Universities. In line with this way of seeing teaching, an action plan has been developed, in one of the subjects for which the authors are responsible, focused on a third of the teaching activity being delivered by prestigious professionals, external to the University, with a link to the object and content of the subject clearly defined by the responsible professor. This collaboration has been reflected through three online seminars, and a recapitulation work by the students of a subject. The results show a very positive reception from the students, as well as a very interesting critical spirit about which are the points of improvement for the next academic years. Based on this experience, the teaching guide for the subject of the next course will be built.

Abstract:
In Colombia, college graduates who earn a national distinction award for top performance in a mandatory exit exam receive a 7 to 12 percent higher salary compared to peers without the award. This wage premium persists five years post-graduation. The wage premium is larger for graduates from non-elite institutions than graduates of more prestigious institutions. Workers with signals are more likely to be employed at productive firms, finding roles that align closely with their specific skills. The observed wage differences are not attributed to differences in human capital but rather to the effectiveness of the signal in the labor market.

Abstract:
Team from Czech Technical University in Prague participated in prestigious international contest Solar Decathlon Europe 21-22. The topic of its FIRSTLIFE project was an extension of student dormitory by adding of new floors on the building together with a retrofit of the existing part. The paper deals with the pedagogical context of this activity. Students got an extraordinary opportunity to actually implement their theoretical proposals based on calculations. They also received feedback on the extent to which detailed designs are feasible in normal construction practice. New knowledge can be applied in future better estimation of the effect of imperfections, for example in calculations of heat conduction, the effect of thermal bridges, leaks for moisture transport and air tightness. Information about future research in Living Lab is given at the end of the paper.

Abstract:
Japanese investment is essential for Mexico not just because it has represented a viable economic diversification option, but the investments have been made in one of the most significant Gross Domestic Product (GDP) contributing industries. Moreover, it is very prestigious, and it has managed to attach itself to local and global companies which, especially in the Bajío region, consolidate local and regional production networks. One of the features that contribute to the good prestige of Japanese investment is, without a doubt, its capacity to plan for the short, medium and long-term. That means challenges such as government and technological changes are factors that both Japanese firms and different government levels take into consideration to make decisions. In this context, this article aims to reflect on the course of Japanese investment in Mexico for the 2020 years, taking into account its historical background, its current state and the international context.

Šiljak, Dženita. The Impact of the Introduction of the Euro in Croatia. Külügyi és Külgazdasági Intézet, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.47683/kkielemzesek.ke-2022.43.

Full text
Abstract:
Croatia, the newest member of the European Union, is set to introduce the euro as its currency in January 2023. Although it was announced that Croatia had fulfilled the Maastricht criteria for monetary union membership in May 2022, the country did not meet the criterion on the general government debt rate. This paper analyses Croatia’s readiness to join the euro area beyond meeting the Maastricht criteria. While monetary union membership has its positive sides, by joining, a country loses one of the most important tools of managing its economy – monetary policy. If the economy is strong and competitive enough, with efficient institutions and stable fiscal policy, the loss of monetary policy can be mitigated. However, Croatia’s decision to join the euro area is hasty, as if the country just wanted to join a prestigious club. This lack of preparedness could have major negative effects on one of the least competitive economies in the EU.

Bittmann, Felix. Academic track mismatch and the temporal development of well-being and competences in German secondary education. Verlag der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.1553/populationyearbook2021.res5.1.

Full text
Abstract:
Formal education is one of the most influential predictors of professional success. As parents in Germany are aware of the importance of education, they often try to enable their children to enrol in the prestigious academic schooling track (Gymnasium). This explains why the transition recommendation made by the teacher after the fourth grade is sometimes ignored if the desired track was not recommended for a particular student. How the mismatch between the teacher’s recommendation and the parents’ choice of schooling for their child affects the child’s development is not sufficiently known. It is very likely that such a mismatch can have consequences for the child’s well-being, competences and overall academic success. Based on five consecutive panel waves of German National Educational Panel Study (NEPS) data (waves 1 to 5, collected between 2010 and 2016) (n = 2;790 in wave 1), our analyses demonstrate that social background and the probability of ignoring a teacher’s recommendation are associated, and that highly educated parents are more likely to overrule the teacher’s recommendation. Panel regression models show that pupils who pursued the academic track (Gymnasium) despite the absence of a teacher’s recommendation were more likely to drop out of the academic schooling track, and were not able to catch up with their peers with respect to both objective and subjective academic competences over the entire observation window. However, the models also show that academic track mismatch did not seem to negatively influence the health and well-being of these pupils.

Full text
Abstract:
This study operates from the foundation that some arguments are more successful than others; some being more persuasive and convincing. Arguments adjudged successful by experts in the field of argumentation were examined, with specific interest in the evaluation of the rhetoric employed. This corpus of material was formed from speeches, interviews and other data previously recorded from the final rounds of competitive and prestigious international debates. The debate aspect was primarily composed of championship-winning speeches, judged by experienced grand final adjudicators on three constitutionally-specified categories: matter, manner and method. The research questions fundamental to this study are centered on different aspects of reasoning for this possible success. While no study might be exhaustive at this stage of examination, given the dearth of previous research findings related to debate tactics, the research parameters were thus: strategies and style for making and delivering arguments; the four types of argument patterns; the A-R-E Model (Assertion-Reasoning-Evidence making a complete argument) in terms of their frequency and common moves; and the use of particular language communicative functions, speech patterns and vocabulary. Together, these provide a very useful insight into how successful arguments are formed and what makes them such. The paper ends with findings and implications for English language teaching, argumentation and negotiation, and for debate training and coaching as well as suggested further studies to enhance effective cooperative and competitive English communication to prepare young Thai people for their role in the forthcoming ASEAN Economic Community.
