The Case Study in Family Business : An Analysis of Current Research Practices and Recommendations

2016

In this study, we identified and analyzed 75 articles in the family business (FB) literature between 2000 and 2014 as to the case study design they adopted. We found that the positivistic case study approach is the FB disciplinary convention. The two alternative approaches of critical realism and interpretivism are used to a significantly lesser extent. We anticipate that in the future the positivistic approach will continue to be used widely. The other two approaches can be employed to a higher extent since their use is likely to contribute to a scientific pluralism in FB case study research.

Like Parents, like Teenagers: A Romanian Youth Smoking Overview

2015

AbstractThis paper estimates how family model influences youth's smoking behaviors and describes smoking behavior in Romania nowadays. A questionnaire-based survey was used and data was collected from a national sample (1,364 people: 536 male and 828 female; average age 22,71 years and SD=3,128). The paper analyses only the items relevant for smoking behavior.Using a quasi-experimental design, we found a significant difference determinated by father's model (ρ(1364)= 0,158, p < 0,05), mother's model (ρ(1362)=0,155, p < 0,05), and brothers/sisters’ model (ρ(1362)=0,219, p < 0,05), regarding smoking behavior.Keywords: smoking behaviour, Romanian teenagers, parental model, Health Psychology

Rodzina w świetle personalizmu integralnego Edyty Stein

2014

Edyta Stein – św. Teresa Benedykta od Krzyża (1891–1942) podejmowała problematykę rodziny w kontekście analizy osoby ludzkiej jako istoty relacyjnej. Opracowała także wspomnienia doświadczeń związanych z rodziną, w której się wychowała. Miała przy tym świadomość zagrożeń czyhających na rodzinę związanych z utrzymaniem jedności i spełnianiem jej właściwych funkcji. Rodzina w koncepcji Stein jest przede wszystkim wspólnotą charakteryzującą się licznymi interakcjami międzyludzkimi i bliskimi wartościami. Ponadto w rodzinie Filozofka dostrzega odwzorowanie obrazu Bożego, co wykazuje na podstawie biblijnych opisów stworzenia człowieka, jak i augustyńskiej koncepcji Trójcy Świętej. Ludzkie podobi…

Efficacy of “Family Connections”, a program for relatives of people with borderline personality disorder, in the Spanish population: study protocol f…

2020

Abstract Background Patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) experience significant affect regulation difficulties that cause serious consequences in their work, emotional, and social environments. This dysfunctional pattern also produces great suffering and a heavy burden on their relatives. Fortunately, some studies show that treatment of relatives of people with BPD begins to be important in the patients’ recovery and in improving family dynamics. One of the treatments that has obtained the most empirical support is Family connections (FC). This 12-session program is an adaptation of different Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies. To test the efficacy of FC, five uncontroll…

Effectiveness of family connections intervention for family members of persons with personality disorders in two different formats: Online vs face-to…

2022

Introduction: Personality disorders (PD) have a serious impact on the lives of individuals who suffer from them and those around them. It is common for family members to experience high levels of burden, anxiety, and depression, and deterioration in their quality of life. It is curious that few interventions have been developed for family members of people with PD. However, Family Connections (FC) (Hoffman and Fruzzetti, 2005) is the most empirically supported intervention for family members of people with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Aim: The aim of this study is to explore the effectiveness of online vs face-to-face FC. Given the current social constraints resulting from SARS-Co…

Semʹâ i vospitanie detejv religioznom diskurse arhiepiskopa Simferopolʹskogo i Krymskogo Luki

2020

During four decades of his service in the Church, Valentin Felixovich Voino-Yasenetsky (Archbishop Luke of Simferopol and Crimea) delivered numerous sermons, most of which were recorded. Later, they began to appear in the form of publications and became the object of research by representatives of various scientific disciplines. In his sermons, apart from other issues, the preacher paid special attention to the family and education of the younger generation. This article is an attempt to analyze the religious discourse of the Archbishop,using the example of the sermon “On the family and education of children”, delivered by him on 13 October 1947. The author of the sermon adheres to the trad…

Vanhemmuuden ja selviytymiskykyisyyden tukeminen ohjatussa äiti–lapsi-vertaisryhmässä

2022

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tarkastella työntekijöiden kuvauksia ja havaintoja siitä, miten ohjatussa äiti–lapsi-vertaisryhmässä tuetaan vanhemmuutta ja selviytymiskykyisyyttä. Tutkimuksen viitekehyksenä sovellettiin resilienssitutkimuksen ja Seligmanin (2011) PERMA-hyvinvointiteorian käsitteitä. Tutkimuksen kontekstina oli matalan kynnyksen perhekeskustoiminta ja kohteena äiti–lapsi-vertaisryhmä. Lähestymistapana sovellettiin tapaustutkimusta, ja menetelminä olivat työntekijöiden (N=2) parihaastattelut tutkimusjakson alussa ja lopussa sekä puolistrukturoidut päiväkirjat, joihin työntekijät kirjasivat huomioitaan omista toimintatavoistaan ja vuorovaikutustilanteista äitien ja lasten ryhmäta…

COPE-indeksillä mitatun omaishoitajan kuormittumisen tilan yhteys omaishoidettavan käyttämien sijaishoitopalveluiden määrään ja käytön useuteen

2013

On olemassa vahva yhteisymmärrys siitä, että ikääntyneen henkilön omaishoitaminen voi olla kuormittavaa. Omaishoitoa tuetaan erilaisilla sijaishoitopalveluilla. Niiden vaikutuksista omaishoitajien kuormittumiseen ei kuitenkaan olla yksimielisiä. Sijaishoitopalveluiden käyttömäärissä ja käytön useudessa on suuria vaihteluja omaishoidettavien välillä. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää COPE-indeksiä (Carers of Older People in Europe, COPE index) apuna käyttäen, minkälainen on omaishoitajien kuormittumisen tila Jämsä-Kuhmoinen SoTe-yhteistoiminta-alueella. Lisäksi tutkimuksessa selvitetään, onko omaishoitajien kuormittumisen tila yhteydessä omaishoidettavan käyttämien sijaishoitopalv…

Mtlinteracts with members of Egfr signaling and cell adhesion genes in the Drosophila eye

2011

Mtl is a member of the Rho family of small GTPases in Drosophila. It was shown that Mtl is involved in planar cell polarity (PCP) establishment, together with other members of the same family like Cdc42, Rac1, Rac2 and RhoA. However, while Rac1, Rac2 and RhoA function downstream of Dsh in Fz/PCP signaling and upstream of a JNK cassette, Mtl and Cdc42 do not. To determine the functional context of Mtl during PCP establishment in the Drosophila eye, we performed a loss-of-function screen to search for dominant modifiers of a sev>Mtl rough eye phenotype. In addition, genetic interaction assays with candidate genes were also carried out. Our results show that Mtl interacts genetically with memb…
