Firm growth and profitability : The role of age and size in shifts between growth–profitability configurations
2023
To investigate the routes toward profitable growth, this study partially replicates and extends the work of Davidsson et al. (2009) on firm growth–profitability dynamics with multi-industry data on over 66,000 Finnish firms. The results support prior findings on initial profitability being more important than initial growth for achieving high performance in both performance dimensions. Additional investigations on the role of firm age and size reveal further interesting dynamics: Very small young firms face fewer risks from growing at a low profitability level than other firms, and the benefits of firm size for future performance depend on the firm's current profitability. The results advan…
Revisiting the “The Breakfast Club”: Testing Different Theoretical Models of Belongingness and Acceptance (and Social Self-Representation)
2021
The current work tests different theoretical models of belongingness and acceptance as fundamental needs for human motivation. In the current study, 372 participants were presented with 52 different items measuring five different theoretical models of belongingness (with a total of 32 items) and three different theoretical models of acceptance (with a total of 20 items). In a first step, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) failed to provide support for these eight theoretical models. In a second step, we therefore applied Exploratory Factor Analysis yielding three factors, which we interpreted as communicating: (1) Belongingness, (2) Emotion-Acceptance, and (3) Social Self-Representation. In…
The Unseen, the Discouraged, and the Outcast : Expressivity and the Foundations of Social Recognition
2018
AbstractThis article analyzes different pathologies of social affirmation and examines the grounds of social recognition from the point of view of the concept of expression. The red thread of the text is provided by Tove Jansson’s fictional works, and the focus will be on three cases in particular (the magic hat, the invisible girl and the figure of the Groke). The article sets out from the phenomenological distinction between the sensible expression, on the one hand, and the expressed content, on the other. By focusing on the three cases, the article distinguishes and analyses the fundamental structures of communal life and explicates different ways in which social affirmation can be one-s…

Saldūdens dūņu mikroorganismu populāciju dinamika jēlglicerīna fermentācijas laikā
2019
Anaerobās fermentācijas ceļā var lietderīgi izmantot jēlglicerīnu, biodīzeļa ražošanas blakusproduktu, iegūstot produktus ar pievienotu vērtību, kas ļauj padarīt biodīzeļa ražošanu ekonomiski izdevīgāku. Šajā darbā tika pētīta mikroorganismu populāciju dinamika jēlglicerīna anaerobās fermentācijas laikā, izmantojot saldūdens dūņas kā inokulātu. Fermentāciju veica 20°C un 37°C temperatūrā 4 un 8 dienas. Noteica izdalītās gāzes tilpumu, kā arī barotņu organisko vielu daudzumu un sastāvu, nosakot ķīmiskā skābekļa patēriņu un veicot šķidruma hromatogrāfiju. Pētīja mikroorganismu populāciju dinamiku, veicot qPCR ar dažādiem baktēriju taksoniem specifiskiem 16S rDNS praimeru pāriem, kā arī veicot…

Linee guida per la valutazione di aziende sequestrate e confiscate
2020
Le linee guida mirano ad analizzare le specificità delle aziende sequestrate e confiscate ai fini del processo di stima del valore di tali delicate realtà aziendali, esaltando in particolare come l’applicazione del metodo valutativo costituisca solo una fase del più ampio processo di stima, che deve necessariamente considerare elementi qualitativi, ma anche quantitativi di difficile ponderazione.
