An aphasia research agenda–a consensus statement from the collaboration of aphasia trialists

2021

Coordination of international aphasia research would minimise duplication of effort, support synergistic international activities across languages and multidisciplinary perspectives, and promote high-quality conduct and reporting of aphasia research, thereby increasing the relevance, transparency, and implementation of findings. The Collaboration of Aphasia Trialists (CATs) sought to develop an aphasia research agenda to direct future research activities, based on priorities shared by people with aphasia, family members, and healthcare professionals. Our established international research network spanning 33 countries contributed to this activity. Research literature reporting the prioritie…

Expectations And Mindsets Related To GDPR

2022

The aim of this qualitative case study is to examine the initial expectations and assumptions related to General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union from the perspectives of selected Finnish organizations: what were the initial expectations of GDPR, how were they adapted/refined over time, and what was the impact on organizational planning and resourcing.

SUSTAINABLE PERFORMANCE OF PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS: SHAPING A COHERENT SYSTEM FOR IMPLEMENTING AND MEASURING THE CONCEPT

2014

The paper addresses a topical issue at the international level due to the present pressure exerted by an increased public debt on most national budgets, but especially in Romania where there is also a large gap between the scientific literature regarding the concept of public organizations’ performance and international literature. The gap is not only in the literature, but also in practices. Performance measurement may generate benefits for public organization and for society as a whole; it may help to improve public management, only if an internal system geared towards achieving sustainable performance was implemented. Otherwise, if public policymakers will continue targeting only the mea…

Intellectual Capital Reporting in the Italian Nonprofit Sector. An Image-Building or an Accountability Tool?

2014

Abstract The purpose of this article is to analyze intellectual capital (IC) measurement, management, and reporting practices at organizational level, with the aim to address a relevant research question: are IC reports used as accountability or as image-building tools? The article presents a single in-depth case study of an Italian nonprofit organization (NPO) which has been measuring and reporting its IC for several years. The research project was conducted using an interpretative approach, by analyzing organizational IC reports in the light of a framework, derived from corporate social responsibility (CSR) and IC literature, able to provide researchers with useful insights to interpret t…

The roles of job and worker restructuring in aggregate wage growth dynamics

2019

We propose an approach for measuring and analyzing the dynamics of the standard aggregate wage growth of macro statistics with micro data. Our method decomposes the aggregate wage growth into the wage growth of job stayers and into various terms related to job and worker restructuring. This method produces explicit expressions with clear interpretations for the various restructuring components. Using comprehensive longitudinal employer–employee data, we study how job and worker restructuring influence the aggregate wage growth and its cyclicality. The results highlight the importance of drawing a sharp distinction between job and worker restructuring in the analysis of aggregate wage growth…
