Examining the longitudinal relationship between visibility and persistence on stress and technology-assisted supplemental work

2023

This study examines the longitudinal relationship between two affordances of organizational information and communication technologies (ICTs)—that is, visibility and persistence—and individuals’ subjective stress and technology-assisted supplemental work (TASW). We propose that visibility and persistence associated with organizational ICTs are often more aptly construed as probabilities for action, rather than merely possibilities for action. The hypotheses are tested using latent change structural equation modeling drawing on two-wave survey data from 437 employees of a global industrial logistics company headquartered in a Nordic country. The findings highlight that visibility is associat…

Fanonian analysis of racism and postcolonial structures of othering

2023

The paper explores how boundaries affect the search for identity in the context of racism and colonialism. Colonized individuals often experience a sense of alienation and inferiority caused by the limitations imposed by colonial power structures, leading to a quest for personal identity. However, the binary division between the colonizer and colonized affects everyone involved, making searching for personal identity more complex and reinforcing systemic racism. The first section of the article examines how race, a socially constructed concept, plays a crucial role in defining the difference between oneself and others, impo-sing structures of othering based on Fanonian analysis. The second …

Sympathetic nervous system synchrony between participants of couple therapy

2017

Synchrony, or the moment-by-moment coordination between people in social situations, has been connected with increased liking and rapport. However, this type of synchrony is an underexplored area with regard to autonomic nervous system activity. The purpose of this research was to study physiological synchrony between participants in couple therapy by focusing on the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which reflects arousal and emotional reactions. The data comprised 12 couple therapy cases (24 clients, 10 therapists) participating in the Relational Mind in Events of Change in Multiactor Therapeutic Dialogues (2013-2016) research project. Electrodermal activity (EDA) and heart rate were reco…

How Do Mobile ICTs Enable Organizational Fluidity: Toward a Theoretical Framework

2017

Abstract The focus of this theoretical paper is to investigate how mobile information and communication technologies (ICTs) give rise to the notion of organizational fluidity. Drawing upon previous literature, five affordances of mobile ICTs − mobility, connectedness, interoperability, identifiability, and personalization − are discussed. Delving into the concept of organizational fluidity, the paper captures three dimensions of organizational fluidity, namely, team fluidity, task fluidity, and control fluidity. The paper then develops propositions on how different combinations of the mobile ICT affordances influence each of the dimensions of organizational fluidity. The contributions and i…

How football team composition constrains emergent individual and collective tactical behaviours: Effects of player roles in creating different landsc…

2021

The aim of the present study was to examine how team composition of players with different roles constrains individual and collective tactical behaviours, and ball possession effectiveness, during competitive 3 vs 3 small-sided and conditioned games (SSCGs) in youth soccer players. Fifteen male players (under 15 yrs, mean age 13.2 ± 1.03 years, mean years of practice: 4.2 ± 1.10 years) from the same club participated in this study. For analysis purposes, on advice from the coaching staff, participants were categorised according to their main team performance role, resulting in sub-samples of 5 defenders (centre-backs = 2 and full- backs = 3), 7 midfielders (central midfielders = 3 and wide…

Tiesneša neatkarības apdraudējumi tiesiskā valstī

2020

Maģistra darbā „Tiesneša neatkarības apdraudējumi tiesiskā valstī” autore pētīja tiesiskas valsts jēdziena saturu personas tiesībās uz taisnīgu tiesu normatīvo aktu un ētikas normu ietvarā. Ikvienai personai piemīt tiesības uz taisnīgu tiesu, tomēr arī tiesnesim ir svarīgi saglabāt savu neatkarību un neizjust pārlieku lielu ietekmi un spiedienu no sabiedrības puses. Praktiskajā daļā tika pētīti faktori un prakse Latvijā, kas var ietekmēt tiesneša neatkarību no sabiedrības puses. Tika noskaidrota šī jautājuma nozīme un aktualitāte. Autore darba ietvaros ir pētījusi arī ārvalstu tiesību aktos regulējumu, kas attiecas gan uz tiesisku valsti, gan vārda brīvību, gan arī tiesneša neatkarību kopsa…

Tiesību tikt aizmirstam mijiedarbība ar vārda brīvību

2016

Maģistra darba tēma ir – „Tiesību tikt aizmirstam mijiedarbība ar tiesībām uz vārda brīvību”. Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot kā tiesības tikt aizmirstam ietekmē vārda brīvības izpausmi. Gūt ieskatu galvenos problēmjautājumos un izvērtēt gadījumus, kad tiesības tikt aizmirstam ir vārda brīvības ierobežojuma attaisnojums. Pētījumā izvērtēts tiesību tikt aizmirstam jēdziens, būtība, vēsturiskā attīstība, normatīvais regulējums un analizēts Eiropas Savienības tiesas 2014. gada 13.maija spriedums lietā: lietā C-131/12. Izpētīta vārda brīvība kā informācijas brīvības garants, kā arī tiesību tikt aizmirstam ietekme uz vārda brīvību. Ar samērīguma testa palīdzību izvērtēts tiesību tikt aizmirstam un ti…
