Personāla vadība izplatīšanas uzņēmumos; paaugstinot sniegumu unmotivāciju, mainot algas formulu.

2021

Autora mērķis šajā rakstā bija rast risinājumu problēmai ar motivācijas trūkumu un zemu produktivitāti gadījumā, ja izplatīšanas uzņēmums Global Drinks, pirmajā daļā aprakstītas teorijas, pēc tam, kad autore nolēma veikt aptauju un apskatīt rezultātus no aptaujas iet tālāk. Rezultātu iegūšanai autore izmantoja kvantitatīvu pētījumu metodi. Aptaujas rezultāti parādīja, ka mazo uzņēmumu darbinieku labākais motivators ir algu paaugstināšana, pēc tam, kad autore konstatēja, ka uzņēmumam ir jāpaaugstina algas, tika nolemts atrast lētu veidu, kā to paaugstināt bez zaudējumiem uzņēmumam, jo tas ir maza izmēra un katra monēta tiek skaitīta. Autors ierosināja izmantot automatizāciju, lai uzņēmums va…

Quali sono le specie arboree a rapido accrescimento per la Sicilia?

2018

A dispetto dell’uso diffuso massiccio della locuzione “specie a rapido accrescimento”, riferita a specie utilizzate per la produzione di biomassa, mancano ad oggi riferimenti certi che servano a definire le suddette specie. Si consideri, inoltre, che la locuzione è utilizzata, oltre che in articoli e testi tecnici, anche in testi che hanno carattere applicativo e/o costituiscono norme di riferimento come, ad esempio, le misure dei Piani di Sviluppo Rurale. Una definizione ormai datata della FAO (1967), riferita ai paesi in via di sviluppo, riporta: “Fast-growing species are considered as those capable of a mean annual increment of at least 10 cubic meters per hectare”. Nel frattempo, da qua…

Manufacturing export performance and public capital: an analysis by country technology position

2021

The objective of this paper is to examine the relationship between public capital and manufacturing export performance. It also aims at investigating whether this relationship depends on the proximity of a country's technology frontier. To achieve this, we adopted a methodology that estimates the elasticities of public capital as a non-rival factor in a model that considers factor intensity as a mechanism of industrial development. We use an interaction model with panel data from 1999 to 2014 across 35 advanced and less advanced countries. Our results show that in countries far from the technology frontier, public capital accumulation is an element of industrial development as opposed to co…

Analysis of the determinants of entrepreneurial intention: the case of Burkina Faso

2018

International audience; In this study, we propose to analyze students' entrepreneurial intention, drawing on Lazear's (2004) self-selection model. This model captures the role of "human capital" in employment assignment and emphasizes the importance of the variety of skills in the individual's entrepreneurial orientation. For this purpose, we have a database collected in 2017 from over 1000 students at Ouaga I and Ouaga II universities in Burkina Faso. The results of estimates obtained using the quantile regression method show a positive and significant effect of the diversity of skills on the intention score, mainly at the median level. Even if the effect is not strong, this result support…

Livelli e fattori della produttività scientifica della psicologia accademica. Una analisi bibliometrica

2015

The survey concerns the bibliometric analysis of the scientific productivity of the 8 Scientific Areas in which the Academic Italian System of Psychology is subdivided (Settori Scientifico-Disciplinari, SSD). To this end, data were retrieved from the Scopus (available at March 2012), one of the most internationally representative scientific databases. Results shows that the Scientific Areas differ from each other with respect to productivity but they tend to show similar rates of growth. Moreover, the Scientific Areas show different organizational characteristics (extension of the collaborative networks, language of publication, number of the international co-authorships); these characteris…

A social network analysis of collaborations between institutions and countries was als…

Flow barriers : What prevents software developers from experiencing flow in their work

2022

Software development requires high problem-solving skills and creativity, making it a profession with good opportunities to become immersed in a flow experience. The characteristics of flow experience are absorption, enjoyment, and intrinsic motivation toward the activity. This study aims to better understand the barriers that prevent software developers from experiencing flow at work. Previous research has mostly examined software developers’ productivity, flow being one component of productive workdays. This study addresses the research gap by exploring the barriers to experiencing flow in software development. A qualitative questionnaire was used to gather data about flow experiences fro…
