Predictors of foster father’s engagement in foster family homes
2021
Tło badań: Ojcostwo zastępcze jest niewątpliwie szczególnym rodzajem ojcostwa, ponieważ mężczyzna, często będąc już mężem i ojcem swych biologicznych dzieci, podejmuje decyzję o odgrywaniu roli ojca zastępczego. Pełnienie roli ojca zastępczego wymaga wysokiego poziomu zaangażowania w realizację działań opiekuńczo-wychowawczych oraz kompensacyjnych, które z kolei wymagają ciągłego podnoszenia kompetencji w zakresie pracy z dzieckiem osieroconym. Cel badań: Poznanie czynników warunkujących poziom zaangażowania ojców zastępczych w realizację rodzicielskiej działalności w rodzinnych domach dziecka w wymiarze zarówno globalnym, jak i parcjalnym. Metoda badawcza: W badaniach zastosowano metodę so…
Green inclusive leadership and green creativity in the tourism and hospitality sector: serial mediation of green psychological climate and work engag…
2021
Green creativity contributes to green innovation and green sustainability in both the manufacturing and services sectors. However, academic research offering more nuanced insights about the drivers of green creativity (GCRT) is deficient, particularly within the tourism and hospitality sector. The present study thus theorized a model based on the Componential Theory of Creativity (CTC) to examine green inclusive leadership (GIL), green psychological climate (GPC), and green work engagement (GWE) as antecedents of GCRT. The model not only posits the direct associations but also accommodates a more complex interaction of variables by anticipating the mediation effect of GPC and GWE on the ass…

Lessons learned on student engagement from the nature of pervasive socio‐digital interests and related network participation of adolescents
2021
The rise of modern socio-digital technologies has fundamentally changed the everyday environments in which young people communicate with each other and cultivate interests. To gain a more sophisticated understanding of this phenomenon, this study provides in-depth, qualitative insights into adolescents’ experiences of their socio-digital developmental ecologies. The 15 interview participants were recruited based on a previously conducted questionnaire. The semi-structured theme interview addressed the socio-digital aspects of the participants’ interest-driven behaviours and related networks with the aid of participant-generated egocentric maps. The data not only qualitatively enrich the pic…

A Relational Approach to How Media Engage With Their Audiences in Social Media
2022
People are increasingly turning to social media for their news and for sharing and discussing news with others. Simultaneously, media organizations are becoming platform-dependent and posting short forms of their news on their social media sites in the hope that audiences will not only consume this news but also comment on and share it. This article joins other media and journalism studies exploring this phenomenon through a relational approach to media audiences to better understand how media organizations, particularly newspapers, are cultivating relationships with audiences via social media. Drawing on public relations theory about organization–public relationships, the article examines …

2015
Pētījuma mērķis bija adaptēt latviešu valodā aptauju TeamPulse™, kas mēra darbinieku iesaisti. Šī darba ietvaros tika veikta aptaujas TeamPulse™ turpmāka izpēte plašākā un daudzveidīgākā izlasē. Kopā analizētas 106 aizpildītas anketas no trim dažādiem uzņēmumiem – bankas, ražošanas uzņēmuma un augstskolas. Tika izmantota arī aptaujas “Iesaiste darbā” (UWES, Schaufeli un Baker, 2006) pilnā versija, lai detalizētāk noteiktu abu aptauju komponentu korelāciju. Pamatojoties uz adaptācijas psihometriskajiem rādītājiem, var apgalvot, ticamības radītāji ir pieļaujamās robežās, pantu diskriminācijas indeksi statistiski ir nozīmīgi, reakcijas indekss paaugstināts.

The profile groups showed difference…
VIRTUAL CLASSROOM: TEACHER SKILLS TO PROMOTE STUDENT ENGAGEMENT
2018
The Virtual Classroom is the main tool for blended learning, since it allows the breaking of time and space barriers between the teacher and the student. In order to develop and put into practice a higher studies course through this tool, teachers need to have a series of skills related to the command of digital technologies and an understanding of students’ affective and behavioral states: and to then apply appropriate communication strategies to deliver course content and prepare students for this innovative learning approach. This study reviews educational research literature on virtual classrooms, teacher behavior and student engagement to establish a theoretical model that explains the…
