Creating Office Spaces in the Mediterranean. The importance of well-being, health and performance of office users

2018

Recent research has studied the influence of office buildings indoor environment quality (IEQ) on employees’ well-being, health and performance. However, it seems that it has not been explicitly explored what are the appropriate environmental conditions to different work patterns that coexist in these spaces. This paper presents results of an empirical research, based on the synchronized measurements of different IEQ parameters (i.e., noise, lighting and temperature), and well-being, health and performance of 71 employees in twelve office spaces in the Valencian Community along three periods, considering winter and summer conditions. Findings of the first winter period data, suggest the exi…

Adsorption of anionic dyes onto natural, thermally and chemically modified smectite clays

2014

Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the adsorption capacity of the smectite clays (from the overburden of the lignite deposit in Belchatow) for two anionic dyes, i.e. Reactive Blue 81 (RB-81) and Direct Blue 74 (DB-74). Additionally, the influence of the thermal and chemical (acid and alkali) clay modifications on the amount of bonded dyes was investigated. The adsorption capacity of the clay (natural and modified) was different for studied dyes and depended on the initial concentration and modification type. All the modified clays adsorbed the dyes at pH>pHPZC as the negatively charged surfaces of their particles (in accordance with the formula: AOH ↔ AO- + H+) prevented the…

Splines in convex sets under constraints of two‐sided inequality type in a hyperplane

2008

The problem of minimization of a smoothing functional under inequality constraints is considered in a hyperplane. The conditions of the existence of a solution are obtained and some properties of this solution are investigated. It is proved that the solution is a spline. The method for its construction is suggested. First Published Online: 14 Oct 2010

Percorsi della devianza e della diversità. Dall'"uomo atavico" al "senza permesso di soggiorno"

2007

Il volume, oltre a tracciare l’evoluzione dei concetti riconducibili all’ampia fenomenologia delle condotte devianti, ne rintraccia ed evidenzia i processi culturali e sociali che vi fanno da sfondo. Costituendosi come un articolata ed approfondita riflessione sulle teorie dell'agire sociale e sui i modi con cui si determinano le relazioni, il volume si sofferma sulle strategie argomentative e i processi interpretativi con cui i “devianti” – gli stranieri, i “senza fissa dimora”, i “diversi”, i “disoccupati” – costituendo proiettivamente una minaccia all’ordine sociale, sono stati nel tempo individuati, etichettati ed emarginati dalle istituzioni. Ogni capitolo è correlato, oltre che da una…

Fragua Social. Prensa, cultura y movilización en la CNT valenciana (1936-1939)

2015

Este estudio aborda la historia del diario valenciano Fragua Social, órgano de expresión del Comité Regional de Levante y del Comité Nacional de la CNT durante la guerra civil española de 1936 a 1939. Pretende completar y renovar los conocimientos sobre la CNT valenciana desde un enfoque cultural, y determinar su relación con la organización nacional y con las otras fuerzas sindicales y políticas durante los tres años que duró la guerra. Analiza el contenido formal del diario, la evolución de la publicación y las características del discurso y de la cultura política anarcosindicalista de la CNT de Levante expresada en Fragua Social. También elabora los perfiles biográficos de sus principale…

Identity and Online Groups

2017

Questions related to identity have been central to discussions on online communication since the dawn of the Internet. One of the positions advocated by early Internet pioneers and scholars on computer-mediated communication was that online communication would differ from face-to-face communication in the way traditional markers of identity (such as gender, age, etc.) would be visible for interlocutors. It was theorized that these differences would manifest both as reduced social cues as well as greater control in the way we present ourselves to others. This position was linked to ideas about fluid identities and identity play inherent to post-modern thinking. Lately, the technological and …

Network-based indices of individual and collective advising impacts in mathematics

2020

AbstractAdvising and mentoring Ph.D. students is an increasingly important aspect of the academic profession. We define and interpret a family of metrics (collectively referred to as “a-indices”) that can potentially be applied to “ranking academic advisors” using the academic genealogical records of scientists, with the emphasis on taking into account not only the number of students advised by an individual, but also subsequent academic advising records of those students. We also define and calculate the extensions of the proposed indices that account for student co-advising (referred to as “adjusted a-indices”). In addition, we extend some of the proposed metrics to ranking universities a…

Pacientu fiziska un verbāla vardarbība neatliekamās palīdzības māsu darbā.

2015

Maģistra darba tēma – „Pacientu fiziska un verbāla vardarbība neatliekamās palīdzības māsu darbā.” Darba mērķis ir izpētīt neatliekamās palīdzības māsu pieredzi par pacientu fizisko un verbālo vardarbību. Izvirzītā hipotēze: neatliekamās palīdzības māsas ir pakļautas fiziskai un verbālai vardarbībai no pacientu puses. Izvirzītais pētniecības jautājums: kāda ir neatliekamās palīdzības māsu pieredze un reakcija, sastopoties ar pret māsām vērstu pacientu verbālo un fizisko vardarbību? Pētniecības instruments: pašaizpildes aptaujas anketa un fokusgrupas intervijas vadlīnijas. Pētniecības metode - darbā tika izmantota kvantitatīvā un kvalitatīvā pētniecības metode. Pētījuma hipotēze, ka neatliek…

Jelgavas Zinātniskā bibliotēka - atbalsta punkts sabiedrības integrācijas procesā

2016

Maģistra darba temats ir „Jelgavas Zinātniskā bibliotēka – atbalsta punkts sabiedrības integrācijas procesā”. Pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot Jelgavas Zinātniskās bibliotēkas lomu četru autores izvēlēto sociāli neaizsargāto sabiedrības grupu sociālās integrācijas procesā. Maģistra darba teorētisko pamatojumu veido aksioloģija, Informācijas un informācijas pakalpojumu lietojumvērtības teorija un Strukturālā funkcionālisma teorija. Datu ieguvei tika izmantotas kvalitatīvās pētniecības metodes - daļēji strukturētās intervijas, ekspertu intervijas, fokusgrupu diskusijas. Pētījuma rezultāti apliecina, ka publiskā bibliotēka pēc savas būtības darbojas kā sabiedrības atbalsta punkts jeb vieta, kurā …
