Is organizational skill a will or a way to a successful lifestyle and workstyle?

2021

Organizational skill is a transversal competence, which is formed through concrete life experiences. On the labour market, organizations want high-performing employees with developed organizational skills. The approach of training the organizational competence is inductive, starting from personal life, competence formed through voluntary exercise, and continuing by practicing and improving it during school life and at work, through ways offered by academic education and management, but also through organizational skill management. This paper aims to analyse the concept of organizational skill, from the perspective of mental mechanisms involved in its formation, as well as human resource man…

Diversity and Social Interaction at Work

2019

Today’s workplaces are characterized by interactions among people with diverse backgrounds. These interactions may occur face-to-face or in technology-mediated settings; as interpersonal exchanges between co-workers, supervisors, and subordinates or between business partners and clients; in small groups and teams or as one-off encounters with customers. The persons engaged in these interactions jointly strive for the shared goals of their organization though they may come from different countries, speak different first languages, or identify with different ethnic, gender, or age groups. This chapter explores the role of diversity in different workplace contexts and situations. First, we unp…

Personality, occupational sorting and routine work

2020

Purpose – A prominent labour market feature in recent decades has been the increase in abstract and service jobs, while the demand for routine work has declined. This article examines whether the components of Type A behaviour predict workers’ selection into nonroutine abstract, non-routine service and routine jobs. Design/methodology/approach – Building on the work by Barrick et al. (2013), this article first presents how the theory of purposeful work behaviour can be used to explain how individuals with different levels of Type A components sort into abstract, service and routine jobs. Then, using longitudinal data, it examines whether the components of Type A behaviour predict occupation…

Comunicación digital y líneas de fractura en el paradigma de la agenda setting

2006

En: Doxa Comunicación : revista interdisciplinar de estudios de comunicación y ciencias sociales. ISSN 1696-019X n. IV, 2006, pp 37-58 Propone realizar una prospectiva que arroje alguna luz sobre las modificaciones que puede sufrir la teoría de la Agenda Setting, e incluso, eventualmente, su superación, por efecto del desarrollo de los sistemas de comunicación digital. La hipótesis de la que partimos es la de que, si bien la multiplicación y diversificación de medios de comunicación provocada por las tecnologías digitales no tiene por qué haber supuesto, hasta el momento, una diversificación de similar calado en lo que concierne a los temas de interés informativo sancionados por los medios,…

The advantage of errorless learning for the acquisition of new concepts' labels in alcoholics

2009

BackgroundPrevious findings revealed that the acquisition of new semantic concepts' labels was impaired in uncomplicated alcoholic patients. The use of errorless learning may therefore allow them to improve learning performance. However, the flexibility of the new knowledge and the memory processes involved in errorless learning remain unclear.MethodNew concepts' labels acquisition was examined in 15 alcoholic patients and 15 control participants in an errorless learning condition compared with 19 alcoholic patients and 19 control subjects in a trial-and-error learning condition. The flexibility of the new information was evaluated using different photographs from those used in the learning…

ANTROPOLOGIA PEDAGOGICA DEL MATRIMONIO E DELLA FAMIGLIA

2012

Il saggio prende in analisi la prevalente concezione estetica dell'esistenza, che dispone i giovani ad assumere il single come ideale di vita - anche quando si è sposati. E' invece una possibilità propria di una visione etica dell'esistenza assumere la sponsalità e la genitura come ideale di vita; scoprendo che si tratta di categorie esistenziali - che definiscono l'essenza stessa dell'esistenza personale

Psychiatric comorbidity more common among adolescent females with CD/ODD than among males.

2009

Clinicians and researchers have been increasingly concerned on conduct problems among adolescent females. Yet, most research on the issue has been conducted among males. The aim of this study was to characterize conduct disorder (CD) among adolescent females in comparison with males. Family background, symptoms and severity of CD, and psychiatric comorbidity were assessed among Finnish 12-18-year-old females (n=40) with conduct disorder/oppositional defiant disorder (CD/ODD) compared with males (n=37). Data were collected via structured interviews with the subjects and interviews with parents. Lifetime and current Axis I diagnoses (DSM-IV) were assessed using the Structured Clinical Intervi…

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), antisociality and delinquent behavior over the lifespan

2020

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is closely linked to the development of conduct problems during socialization in early life and to an increased risk for antisocial activities and delinquency over the lifespan. The interaction between ADHD and common comorbid disorders like substance use disorders as well as changing environmental conditions could mediate the course of antisocial and delinquent behavior with increasing age. However, this complex interaction is only partially understood so far. This review presents current knowledge about the association of ADHD with antisociality and the development of delinquent behavior. Thereby, the relationships between ADHD, conduct diso…
