Self-Esteem, Socially Prescribed Perfectionism, and Parental Burnout
2022
AbstractSocially prescribed perfectionism (SPP) has been shown to be a risk factor for parental burnout (Sorkkila & Aunola, 2020). In the present study, we investigated the moderating role of self-esteem in this association. A total of 479 Finnish mothers of infants filled in questionnaires measuring their self-esteem, SPP, and symptoms of parental burnout. The results of structural equation modelling (SEM) showed that mothers’ self-esteem moderated the effect of SPP on parental burnout: Mothers with high self-esteem were at lower risk of showing burnout symptoms even when SPP co-occurred, whereas for mothers with low self-esteem, the effect of SPP on burnout symptoms was further streng…
Is individual- and school-level teacher burnout reduced by proactive strategies?
2021
There is provisional evidence that burnout may be contagious within professional communities via the crossover effect, referring to an inter-individual transmission of stress or strain. However, our understanding of effective means for tackling stressors is scarce. We tested a two-level path model to explore the interrelation between teachers’ proactive self- and co-regulative strategies and experienced burnout. The study sample comprised 1531 Finnish in-service teachers from 75 schools. The results showed that burnout symptoms varied both between individual teachers and between professional communities. Self- and co-regulative strategies serve partly different functions in regulating teach…
Com afecta la crisi al sistema de Serveis Socials
2012
The economic crisis is affecting people and societies in a different way depending on their initial situation. As far as Social Services are concerned in the Valencian Community, an analysis needs to be made of this system as it was when the crisis first emerged. Its structure is deficient and involves overlaps, in which schemes have been replaced with individual assistance, payment of subsidies takes too long and in which subjective rights, stemming from the Personal Autonomy and Care for Dependency Law and the Law on Citizens' Guaranteed Income, are poorly applied. The values crisis precedes the economic and financial crisis, which is why any possibilities of facing up to these have to se…
Els serveis socials municipals en risc de desaparició. L'avantprojecte de Llei de racionalització i sostenibilitat de l'Administració local
2013
This bill endangers the municipal social services system because it deeply modifies the conception thereof (leaning social services towards charity), the distribution of powers (taking competences to the town and city councils) and the public responsibility (encouraging private management and the commercial exploitation thereof). During the last thirty years, the Social Services system had been consolidated throughout Spain, being the proximity to the citizenry its most fundamental value. Such proximity has been achieved thanks to the benefits provided by the town and city councils, which have become the closer public bodies to citizens and their needs with great capacity to understand and …
Dinamisku risinājumu ieviešana telekomunikāciju pašapkalpošanās sistēmas uzlabošanā
2016
Darbā skaidrots, kā tika pētīta un analizēta esošā telekomunikāciju uzņēmuma pašapkalpošanās sistēma un kā tā tika uzlabota. Tika identificētas vairākas problēmas, kas traucēja gan uzņēmuma darbiniekiem, gan klientiem, kas ir sistēmas lietotāji. Balstoties uz šiem trūkumiem, tika izveidotas prasības jaunajai sistēmai, kura tika sadalīta divās daļās, viena daļa optimizēta privātpersonām jeb klientiem ar salīdzinoši mazu lietotāju skaitu, otra daļa veidota pēc juridisku personu klientu vēlmēm un vajadzībām. Sistēmas servera daļas projektēšanas laikā tika izplānoti un beigās arī ievesti vairāki dinamiski risinājumi, kas atvieglo informācijas sistēmas uzturētāju darbu, ieviešot sistēmā izmaiņas…
Female-driven social entrepreneurship in service business
2022
AbstractThe United Nations has stated that to meet the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda, analysis of the development and impact of women entrepreneurship is needed. Based on data from the Web of Science, an initial analysis of research on both women entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship was performed. Although the first published article date back to 2004, it was not until 2014 when scholars began to study women social entrepreneurship more systematically. This special issue covers these two areas in conjunction, with an added emphasis on service business.

« L’homme-à-fourchette ». La construction du convive-modèle à la table de Buckingham Palace
2021
“Every meal is a lesson learned”. The Victorian saying warns of the risk of punishment that every guest constantly incurs. These sanctions often relate to the way in which one approaches, one selects, one handles the cutlery on the table. Indeed, the construction of the ideal guest, of his way of being with others and of behaving in relation to food, often and above all involves being a "model user" of table service. We will analyze this aspect from the images and speeches posted on the Windsors' Twitter account, the official websites of the Royal Family and the manners manuals they sponsor. Each of these supports manifests an aspect of the subjectivity of the ideal guest as a model-user of…
Utilitarian Use of Social Media Services - A Study on Twitter
2018
This paper applies structuration theory (ST) and service dominant logic (SDL) as lenses to study different uses of information systems (IS). We argue that resources provided by IS may be combined and reproduced by appropriating them for different purposes than the design purposes of the IS. The study provides empirical data and analysis to showcase the use of resources for utilitarian purposes in the context of social media services (SMS). Through an analysis of sponsored tweets on Twitter, we show that users employ implicit and explicit resources for utilitarian outcomes. Our findings imply that users create their own service through appropriation of resources available in the social conte…
Ricerca-formazione nel Service e-Learning: significare l’esperienza attraverso la scrittura riflessiva e immaginativa in rete
2023
This paper analyses a Service e-Learning course carried out at the University of Palermo, in the academic year 2022/23, with 260 students enrolled in the first year of the Bachelor of Science in Primary Education (LM-85bis), in order to describe and understand how this pedagogical research-training approach can determine professional development by supporting critical reflection and self-assessment processes. Specifically, the investigation aims to explore on the one hand, the perspective of reflective and imaginative writing as a useful critical-reflexive device aimed at supporting emancipative learning processes, and, on the other, the idea that the learner is perpetually under constructi…
