Nueva evidencia sobre la eficiencia del mercado español de futuros sobre acciones. El objetivo de este primer capítulo es presentar nueva evidencia sobre la eficiencia del mercado español de futuros sobre acciones durante el período 2001-2010. Para ello, nos servimos del análisis de correlación realizado sobre carteras índices igualmente ponderadas y ponderadas por volumen, así también sobre contratos de futuros individuales. Este análisis revela la existencia de autocorrelación negativa en el corto plazo de una semana. Para explotar el beneficio del arbitraje procedente del patrón de fuente temporal, construimos un conjunto de estrategias de negociación á la Conrad and Kaul para cada día d…

Teknostressi ja sitä lieventävät mekanismit

2016

Teknologia on muuttanut ratkaisevalla tavalla ihmisten työntekoa ja oppimista. Laitteistojen ja ohjelmistojen jatkuvan kehityksen tarkoituksena on ollut tehdä elämästä ja arjesta helpompaa, mutta se on tuonut mukanaan myös ei-toivottuja sivuvaikutuksia. Ihmisten pyrkimykset selvitä tämän jatkuvasti kehittyvän tek- nologian mukana ovat aiheuttaneet teknostressiä, jolla tarkoitetaan suoraan tai epäsuoraan teknologian käytöstä johtuvia negatiivista vaikutuksia yksilöön. Teknostressin tiedetään aiheuttavan sekä psykologista, fyysistä että käyttäyty- misellistä kuormitusta. Tieto- ja viestintäteknologia on siis muuttanut työnteon kaavoja ja tuonut mukanaan uusia vaatimuksia. Työympäristössä tekn…

Predicting sugar consumption : Application of an integrated dual-process, dual-phase model

2017

Excess consumption of added dietary sugars is related to multiple metabolic problems and adverse health conditions. Identifying the modifiable social cognitive and motivational constructs that predict sugar consumption is important to inform behavioral interventions aimed at reducing sugar intake. We tested the efficacy of an integrated dual-process, dual-phase model derived from multiple theories to predict sugar consumption. Using a prospective design, university students (N = 90) completed initial measures of the reflective (autonomous and controlled motivation, intentions, attitudes, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control), impulsive (implicit attitudes), volitional (action and c…

Governing at the frontier of the European Commission : the case of seconded national officials

2005

Studies of executive institutions have largely dealt separately with national and international executive institutions (IEIs). This study unpacks and repacks four conflicting decision-making dynamics that unfolds at the frontier of IEIs – that is, at the institutional rim where national and international executive institutions meet, interact and collide. The empirical laboratory utilised is seconded national experts in the European Commission. The survey and interview data presented demonstrates that the decision-making behaviour of seconded national experts includes a mix of departmental (portfolio), epistemic (expert) and supranational behaviour. The suspicion early voiced by Coombes (197…

International executives : transformative bureaucracies or Westphalian orders?

2004

Public Administration is in an era of change. This paper studies one under-researched part of public administration, the executive arms of International Governmental Organizations (IGOs). These are referred to as International Executives (IEs) and provide a conceptual mapping and empirical illustrations of three important dynamics of IEs – intergovernmental, supranational and transgovernmental dynamics. The paper offers a middle-range organization theory perspective that suggests five independent variables that affect the behavior and roles of IE civil servants. The variables are (i) the organizational properties of IEs, (ii) the degrees of institutionalization of IEs, (iii) the recruitment…

Re-discovering international executive institutions

2004

Public Administration is in an era of change. This article aims at re-discovering one underresearched part of public administration, the executive arms of International Governmental Organizations (IGOs). These are referred to as International Executives (IEs). The article provides a conceptual mapping and an empirical illustration of three important dynamics of IEs – intergovernmental, supranational and transgovernmental dynamics. The study also offers a middle-range organization theory perspective that suggests five independent variables that foster the advent of supranational and transgovernmental behavior and roles among IE civil servants. The variables suggested are (H1) the organizatio…

Mourning Missing Migrants: Ambiguous Loss and the Grief of Strangers

2019

While the term missing refers to various instances and practices, we focus on the bodies of deceased migrants that remain unidentified, and on the inability of families to mourn someone when there is no body to grieve for. We deploy some ethnographic fragments of how Italian communities sometimes mourn those who are buried without a name and we describe the many problems of mourning someone whose fate is unknown through a discussion of the notion of ‘ambiguous loss’. Our contribution articulates some of the politics around deaths in migration by considering how missing migrants and their bodies are mourned in multiplicity. peerReviewed
