Type-2 intuitionistic fuzzy TODIM for intelligent decision-making under uncertainty and hesitancy
2022
AbstractThe classical TODIM considers the crisp numbers to handle the information. However, in a real-world applicative context, this information is bounded by noise and vagueness and hence uncertain. There are wide range of works in the literature which utilizes fuzzy sets to handle the uncertainty in the various dimensions. However, there is a constraint of hesitancy in such decision-making problems due to the involvement of various decision-makers. Also, in the TODIM method, decision-maker’s bounded rationality and psychological behavior are also taken into consideration which adds up the hesitation and considers the problem with higher dimension of uncertainty. There are various applica…
Modelling Quoting in Newswriting : A Framework for Studies on the Production of News
2019
The Mediated Social Communication (MSC) approach considers mass media a venue for opposing and complementary societal groups to publicly negotiate socially relevant topics. This negotiation is conducted through representatives of these groups and mediated by journalists. Inspired by the MSC approach, this paper presents an empirically grounded model that structures the mediating process through the process of quoting. By identifying the key phases of newswriting as sub-processes of quoting, the paper argues that journalists (1) decide on a topical issue to be addressed (topicalisation), (2) identify groups of people who are linked to this issue (societal localisation), (3) pick some people …

2021
Maģistra darba tēma ir “Viltotas preces – patērētāju izvēle un institūciju darbība pret to pieejamību tirgū”. Pētījuma mērķis ir novērtēt patērētāju izvēles ietekmējošos faktorus, apzināti izvēloties iegādāties viltotas preces, kā arī izvērtēt institucionālos aspektus cīņā ar viltojumu pieejamību Eiropas Savienības tirgū. Darbs strukturēts trīs nodaļās, aplūkojot patērētāju lēmumu pieņemšanas aspektus, viltojumu tirgus izplatības ekonomisko ietekmi, izpēti noslēdzot ar Latvijas patērētāju anketēšanas rezultātu apkopojumu un analīzi. Veicot analīzi secināts, ka Latvijas patērētāju galvenie iemesli, lai iegādātos viltotās preces ir to zemās cenas un informācijas trūkums par viltoto preču nega…
Relationships Between Career Indecision, Search for Work Self-Efficacy, and Psychological Well-Being in Italian Never-Employed Young Adults.
2017
Although different studies have investigated career choices as cognitive acts of decision-making, non-cognitive components also play an important role. The study tries to develop an empirically based model of career decision-making process linking cognitive (search for work self-efficacy - SWSE) and non-cognitive (psychological well-being - PWB) components. In particular, the study investigates, among 148 never-employed Italian young adults, to what extent the relationship between SWSE and career indecision in terms of lack of readiness (LoR) can be explained by their common relationship with PWB. Results highlighted that SWSE is negatively associated with LoR when considered in absence of …
Educación para la sostenibilidad y educación ambiental
2010
En este trabajo se analizan algunos de los obstáculos que están dificultando la implicación de diferentes sectores sociales en la adopción de las medidas necesarias para hacer frente a la actual situación de emergencia planetaria. En particular, analizamos la supuesta confrontación entre educación ambiental y educación para la sostenibilidad. Intentaremos mostrar que no existen razones para dicho antagonismo, sino que responde a malentendidos que es urgente deshacer, porque entorpecen la necesaria convergencia de esfuerzos para lograr una formación ciudadana que haga comprender la gravedad de la situación y prepare para participar en la toma de decisiones. Dans cet article nous analysons qu…
