Mixing Methods in Organizational Ethics and Organizational Innovativeness Research : Three Approaches to Mixed Methods Analysis
2015
This chapter discusses three categories of mixed methods analysis techniques: variableoriented, case-oriented, and process/experience-oriented. All three categories combine qualitative and quantitative approaches to research methodology. The major differences among the categories are the focus of the study, available analysis techniques and timely aspect of the study. In variable-oriented analysis, the study focus is relationships between the research phenomena. In case-oriented analysis, the research focus is the meanings and experiences produced by the cases. The process/experience-oriented analysis examines a certain research phenomenon, which might be either a case or a variable, in a s…
Emotions and Activity Recognition System Using Wearable Device Sensors
2021
Nowadays machines have become extremely smart, there are a lot of existing services that seemed to be unexpectable and futuristic decades or even a few years ago. However, artificial intelligence is still far from human intelligence, machines do not have feelings, consciousness, and intuition. How can we help machines to learn about human feelings and understand their needs better? People take their devices wherever they go, what can devices tell us about their owners? Personal preferences and needs are dependent on emotional and situational contexts. Therefore, emotional and activity aware gadgets would be more intuitive and provide more appropriate information to users. Contemporary weara…
Kairós. Un tempo nel mezzo. Percorso multidisciplinare di analisi dell’esperienza di assistenza ai pazienti oncologici terminali
2011
La concezione personalistica cristiana permette una corretta visione antropologi- ca ed etica che fonda le riflessioni delle scienze umane (sociologia, psicologia, pedagogia, scienze della comunicazione) che vogliono analizzare le situazioni in cui versano il paziente oncologico terminale, i suoi familiari e coloro che si occupano dell’attività di assistenza clinico-sanitaria, sociale e volontaria. Se- condo tale concezione, la “persona” è un’unità inscindibile di corpo, psiche e spirito, di sesso maschile e femminile, destinata a una dimensione trascendente e ultraterrena dell’essere. La persona ammalata di cancro, in questa visione, non può essere ridotta a mero agglomerato psicofisico, a…
Violencia, mito y sabotaje en Cóbraselo caro, de Élmer Mendoza
2014
ResumenSiguiendo los fundamentos de la crítica como sabotaje, este ensayo analiza la novela de Élmer Mendoza, Cóbraselo caro, como un efecto performativo de la lectura de la novela de Juan Rulfo, Pedro Páramo. A través del estudio de las relaciones lingüísticas, temáticas y situacionales entre esas dos novelas, muestra que Cóbraselo caro, aun siendo un efecto performativo de Pedro Páramo, supone el auto-sabotaje de Élmer Mendoza en relación a buena parte de su narrativa. Pone de relieve, además, que ese auto-sabotaje se lleva a cabo a través del empleo del mito prehispánico de los huesos que se convierten en piedras curativas como una forma de limpieza de la violencia presente en la socieda…
Applying phenomenography in guidance and counselling research
2017
This paper examines phenomenography as a viable qualitative approach in guidance and counselling research. A phenomenographic study maps the qualitatively different ways in which people experience a specific phenomenon and helps researchers to describe the aspects that make one way of experiencing a certain phenomenon qualitatively distinct from another. This paper presents an overview of phenomenographic research, encompassing theoretical, methodological and practical considerations. The application of this approach in guidance and counselling studies is illustrated with examples. peerReviewed

Reliģiski-filozofiski raksti XXXII ir par telpas pieredzēšanu: par to, kā mēs izdzīvojam sevi vietā, kurā esam, un kā mēs izjūtam sevi šajā savā vietā vai vietā, kura tā arī nav kļuvusi vai nekad nebūtu varējusi kļūt par mūsu dzīves pasauli. Kā veidojas šī savas vietas izjūta? Vai vieta, kurā mēs dzīvojam, vienmēr ir mājas? Vai šo vietas izjūtu veido mūsu individuālā pieredze vai varbūt tā ir vairāk atkarīga no kādām kolektīvām prasībām? Varbūt to nosaka mūsu piederība tradīcijām, kurās esam audzināti un kuras arī saucam par savām, bet varbūt tieši mūsu vietas pieredze ir tā, kas nosaka to, kādai tradīcijai mēs izvēlamies piederēt vai kuras veidošanā piedalāmies? Par tradīcijas iesakņošanos…

What stakeholder groups are addressed in the German blue chips’ corporate codes of ethics and why do companies concentrate on particular stakeholders?

The empirical results were interpreted in the light of stakeholder salience theory. Stakeholders’ legitimacy, power, and urgency were evaluated against the background of the German business context and the sphere of research on applied business ethics in Germany. T…

Emerging conceptualisations on professional agency and learning
2017
This chapter provides an evaluative summary of the major contributions from the first section of this book, comprising conceptualisations on professional agency and work-related learning. The evaluation focuses on the differences, similarities, and strengths of the approaches and conceptualisations touched on.

Secondly, the approaches are addressed according to their view of how the contextual aspects of working life relate to agency. Thirdly, attention is given to the practical conclusions deriving from different understandings of agency. The present chapter thus elaborates how these …
