Valor da relação, compromisso, TIC e lealdade no canal de comercialização
2009
En el actual contexto empresarial altamente competitivo, gran número de organizaciones tienden a reducir el número de proveedores para centrarse en establecer relaciones estrechas y duraderas con un número reducido de ellos. Si bien las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) ofrecen grandes ventajas en las relaciones entre empresas, el vínculo entre la inversión en dichas tecnologías y el valor de la relación no es claro. En el presente trabajo pretendemos analizar la influencia del uso de diversas aplicaciones tecnológicas del proveedor sobre el valor de la relación, el compromiso y la lealtad hacia el mismo desde el punto de vista de la empresa cliente. A través de la estim…
Relationship between family educational styles and social value of education: reflections of a study
2018
The goal of this study is to analyze the relationship between the social value that the families give to education of their sons and daughters, and the family educational styles. For this, we apply 4103 questionnaires of evaluation of Family Educational Styles (EEF) of Bisquert (2017). We used 5 context variables of the same questionnaire because of their conceptual relationship with the evaluation dimensions of Subjective Social Value of Education (VSESubjective) of Jornet, Perales and Sánchez Delgado (2011). The association was estimated by crosstab procedure, and Pearson’s chi-square coefficient. The results reveal the significant association in two of the four dimensions of VSESubjectiv…
Índices nacionales de satisfacción del consumidor: Una propuesta de revisión de la literatura
2011
Durante las últimas décadas, gran cantidad de académicos del ámbito del marketing que investigan el comportamiento del consumidor han llegado a la conclusión de que la satisfacción es un buen indicador, si no el mejor, de los futuros beneficios de las empresas. A partir de la década de 1990 se han desarrollado los índices nacionales de satisfacción como herramientas de evaluación macro desde el punto de vista del cliente para complementar las medidas objetivas de rendimiento económico tradicionales. En este trabajo se presenta una revisión teórica de los índices nacionales de satisfacción que más relevancia han tenido en entornos tanto profesionales como académicos, identificando las variab…
A Personal Values-Based Approach to Understanding Users’ Co-Creative and Co-Destructive Gaming Experiences in Augmented Reality Mobile Games
2022
Background: Understanding how users evaluate their experiences has been recognized as being fundamental to designing services that meet the users’ needs and support the emergence of positive rather than negative value outcomes in service use. Still, the current literature does not explicitly describe how the users’value determination unfolds or how the levels of experienced value could be measured to support service design. We address this gap in the context of augmented reality (AR) mobile games by scrutinizing users’ personal values as a potential basis for achieving such an understanding. Method: Through a qualitative content analysis of 43 in-depth laddering interviews with active Pokém…
The Concept of Value for CSR: A Debate Drawn from Italian Classical Accounting
2018
This paper underlines the importance of the concept of value for corporate social responsibility (CSR) and then explores it beyond economics, looking for its social and philosophical roots. Con- sidering the most recent literature on the matter, the dilemma between a non monetary, multi variable conception and a monetary, one variable conception is set. To obtain the origins of the meaning for this basic concept in CSR, Italian literature regarding ‘value in accounting’ is ex- plored. The main result from this first survey is the existence of a ‘chain’ from the highest con- ception of value (philosophical, ethical), to the most practical conception (accounting techniques of measurement). By…
La valutazione e l’autovalutazione delle scuole italiane
2016
La comprensione del significato sociale della valutazione di tutte le scuole italiane, avviata con l’a. s. 2014-15 lungo un percorso triennale articolato in quattro fasi, migliora se si considerano le premesse e i preparativi dei venti anni precedenti. Sono scandite le tappe di avvicinamento alla prima valutazione sistematica della scuola italiana che, con tutti i suoi limiti, costituisce un’autentica inversione di rotta rispetto al livellamento verso il basso delle prestazioni, una deformazione del principio dell’uguaglianza, cui si tendeva per una serie di meccanismi economici, sindacali e partitici, che la governance istituzionale non riesce ancora a contrastare efficacemente. Sono indic…
Worldviews and National Values in Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish Early Childhood Education and Care Curricula
2021
This paper examines how worldviews and national values are displayed in the national (Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) curricula of Sweden, Finland and Norway. The specific interest is to investigate what similarities and differences there are between these three ECEC curricula with regard to the position of religions and other worldviews. ECEC is often the first societal arena for children to enter and to negotiate their personal values, worldviews, and memberships in relation to the values represented in the surrounding social context. Countries employ different policies for dealing with diversity. Home languages for example, are often supported whereas for home cultures and worl…
Examining the antecedents and consequences of perceived value : a case study of mobile banking application usage in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
2022
Recent advancements in information, communications, and mobile technologies have revolutionized banking and payment services as well as consumer behavior. This study examines the continuous usage experience of mobile financial services, and especially mobile banking services, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), the context of this study. Data were collected from 300 experienced mobile banking users across the KSA using a pre-tested survey instrument. The partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyze the data. The results supported most of the hypotheses and revealed that e-service quality, e-information quality, and experience flow have a significant an…
Value Co-creation for Smart Villages: The Institutionalization of Regional Service Ecosystems
2020
Building a versatile portfolio of public and private digital-enabled services is vital in rural and sparsely populated regions, where traditional market mechanisms alone cannot guarantee the availability of essential services. However, contemporary services tend to build on prevalent institutions, often governed by decisions based on market mechanisms, such as economies of scale – service-by-service and village-by-village. A shift is suggested towards networks of smart villages co-creating value as regional service ecosystems. We draw from institutional theory and employ the Service-dominant logic (SDL) framework in investigating value co-creation in rural villages in Sweden. Analyzing 53 l…
High-Reynolds-number turbulent cavity flow using the lattice Boltzmann method
2018
We present a boundary condition scheme for the lattice Boltzmann method that has significantly improved stability for modeling turbulent flows while maintaining excellent parallel scalability. Simulations of a three-dimensional lid-driven cavity flow are found to be stable up to the unprecedented Reynolds number $\mathrm{Re}=5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{4}$ for this setup. Excellent agreement with energy balance equations, computational and experimental results are shown. We quantify rises in the production of turbulence and turbulent drag, and determine peak locations of turbulent production.
