GRANULAR-INFORMATION-BASED RISK ANALYSIS IN UNCERTAIN SITUATIONS

2006

In the real life almost all of the decisions that we have to make incorporate uncertainty about the future events. Assessment of the uncertainty and, thus, the risk that is inherent in these decisions models can be critical. It is even truer if we are talking about the possibility of negative impact on the environment. It is very important to assess all the environmental risks in a project if there is any hazard to the environment. In this paper the possibility of using granular information is considered. The main advantage of the granular information is that it can be used to assess risks in situations when information about future events is incomplete and imprecise. Moreover, we can use n…

2019

Bakalaura darba “Seriāla “13 iemesli kāpēc” (“13 Reasons Why”) naratīva analīze un ietekme uz auditoriju” mērķis ir izpētīt seriāla naratīva struktūru un noskaidrot tā ietekmi uz auditoriju. Lai to paveiktu, tika izmantota naratīva analīze, ar ko pētīts seriāla saturs, un fokusa grupas diskusija, kur tika apspriestas dalībnieku sajūtas un efekti pēc seriāla noskatīšanās. Darba teorētiskajā daļā apskatīts naratīva jēdziens, pievēršot uzmanību audiovizuālam naratīvam, kā arī seriālu naratīva aspektiem. Tāpat tika apskatīti arī mediju efekti uz auditoriju. Pētījumā noskaidrots, ka “13 iemesli kāpēc” tiek strukturēts, katrā epizodē izceļot citu varoni, un atklāj seriāla stāstu, izmantojot poliv…

Employees’ adherence to information security policies: An exploratory field study

2014

The key threat to information security comes from employees who do not comply with information security policies. We developed a new multi-theory based model that explained employees' adherence to security policies. The paradigm combines elements from the Protection Motivation Theory, the Theory of Reasoned Action, and the Cognitive Evaluation Theory. We validated the model by using a sample of 669 responses from four corporations in Finland. The SEM-based results showed that perceived severity of potential information security threats, employees' belief as to whether they can apply and adhere to information security policies, perceived vulnerability to potential security threats, employees…

The Effects of Consumer Demographics and Payment Method Preference on Product Return Frequency and Reasons in Online Shopping

2021

In online shopping, product returns are very common. In order to reduce them, one must first understand who are making them and why are they being made. In this study, we aim to address these questions by examining product return behaviour from a consumer-centric rather than the more traditional product-centric, retailer-centric, and order-centric perspectives. More specifically, we focus on the effects of four demographic characteristics of consumers (i.e., gender, age, education, and income) as well as their payment method preference on their product return frequency and product return reasons. As the data, we use the responses from 560 Finnish online consumers, which were collected with …

Filozofia tu i teraz. Ontologia procesu jako podstawa filozoficznego coachingu

2018

Artykuł zawiera szkic ontologicznych podstaw coachingu filozoficznego – nowej dyscypliny praktycznej, która od roku 2016 stanowi składnik oferty edukacyjnej Uniwersytetu Opolskiego. Jest rozwinięciem idei zawartych w moim tekście Filozofia jako ćwiczenie duchowe – coachingowy model uprawiania filozofii. W drugim paragrafie przedstawiono ontologię Platona z perspektywy filozofii procesu. Widziana z tej perspektywy ontologia Platona jest rodzajem metafizyki doświadczenia – byt nazywany przez Platona „prawdziwym” nie jest rzeczywistością abstraktów, lecz tym, czego doświadczamy w chwilach, gdy rozpoznajemy znaczenie konkretnych sytuacji życiowych w perspektywie Dobra. Filozofia Platona okazuje…

Relations between representational consistency, conceptual understanding of the force concept, and scientific reasoning

2012

Previous physics education research has raised the question of “hidden variables” behind students’ success in learning certain concepts. In the context of the force concept, it has been suggested that students’ reasoning ability is one such variable. Strong positive correlations between students’ preinstruction scores for reasoning ability (measured by Lawson’s Classroom Test of Scientific Reasoning) and their learning of forces [measured by the Force Concept Inventory (FCI)] have been reported in high school and university introductory courses. However, there is no published research concerning the relation between students’ ability to interpret multiple representations consistently (i.e.,…
