Prevalence of psychosocial risks in the justice administration staff of the valencian community (Spain)
2016
The objective of the study was to evaluate the psychosocial factors in the work of the justice personnel of Valencia (Spain) to identify the prevalence of psychosocial risks. The participants were 402 workers (28.11 % men) including managers, processors, and social assistants. We assessed using the UNIPSICO questionnaire (includes demand factors, resource factors, and consequences of psychosocial risks). The main risks were work overload (46.02 % of participants in a high risk situation) within the demands; the lack of resources to carry out the work (76.37 % in a high risk situation); and the lack of autonomy (67.41 % in a high risk situation). For the consequences, 61.44 % of participants…
Eldercare work and technology. 2019 University of Jyväskylä survey study on eldercare work : Overview of survey data
2019
University of Jyväskylä has launched a survey study on eldercare work aimed to obtain information on 1) employees working with services for older people, 2) the nature of the work and working conditions in services for older people and 3) a current view of the use of technology in services for older people. The goal is to examine how the use of digital technologies is linked to working conditions, daily work routines and care relationships and to monitor the nature of care work and its digitalisation during 2019-2025. The first baseline survey was conducted on April 2019 resulting with 6 903 answers and of the respondents, 3,758 joined the respondent panel. The 2019 survey data shows that i…
Organisational and individual resources as antecedents of older nursing professionals’ organisational commitment : Investigating the mediating effect…
2021
Aim and objectives To investigate how organisational and individual resources are linked to older (50+) nursing professionals’ organisational commitment, and to examine the possible mediating role of the active use of selection, optimisation and compensation (SOC) strategies. Background Many healthcare organisations need to find ways to retain their older nursing professionals due to nursing shortage. Design To test a set of hypotheses, cross-sectional survey data (n = 396) were used. Data were analysed using correlation analysis and partial least-squares structural equation modelling. STROBE Statement for cross-sectional studies has been followed in this study. Results The results exhibite…
Use of conservative therapy before and after surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome
2021
Abstract Background Conservative therapies are typically offered to individuals who experience mild or intermittent symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) or postoperatively to subjects who have undergone carpal tunnel release. Although long-term studies report mostly positive results for carpal tunnel release, knowledge on the need for conservative treatments following surgery is scarce. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to examine the use of conservative therapies before and after carpal tunnel releasing surgery. Methods Of 528 patients who underwent carpal tunnel release surgery in the study hospital during the study period, 259 provided sufficiently completed questionnair…
Reliability and Validity of The Finnish Version of The Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire among Surgically Treated Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Patients
2019
Background and Aims: The Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire is the most commonly used outcome measure in the assessment of carpal tunnel syndrome. The purpose of this study was to translate the original Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire into Finnish and validate its psychometric properties. Materials and Methods: We translated and culturally adapted the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire into Finnish. Subsequently, 193 patients completed the Finnish version of the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire, 6-Item CTS Symptoms Scale, and EuroQol 5 Dimensions 12 months after carpal tunnel release. The Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire was re-administered after a 2-week interval. We calculated cons…
Korpusu lietojums klasifikācijas un salīdzinājuma rindkopu rakstītmācīšanā
2018
Nesenie panākumi korpusa lingvistikā liecina par to, ka korpusa lietojums rakstītmācīšanā var nodrošināt svešvalodas ar īpašu datubāzi, sastāvošu no autentiskiem valodas datiem, kas savukārt var uzlabot mācību procesu. Šī pētījuma mērķis bija noskaidrot, vai korpusos balstītu aktivitāšu lietojums var uzlabot saistošo vārdu izmantošanu klasifikācijas un salīdzinājuma/kontrasta rindkopu rakstītmācīšanā. Pētniecības metode, kas tika izmantota šī maģistra darba tapšanā bija gadījuma izpēte, kas ietvēra pirmstestu, pēctestu un aptaujas anketu. Pētījuma rezultāti liecina, ka korpusos balstītu aktivitāšu izmantošana ievērojami uzlabo saistošo vārdu kopskaitu, palielina pareizi izmantoto saistošo v…
Runāšanas prasmju pilnveide, izmantojot stāstus
2016
Runāšanas prasmes tiek izmantotas katru dienu. Runa ir valodas prasme, kas palīdz komunicēt. Tas ir sarežģīts process, kas iekļauj citas valodu prasmes un runas orgānus. Tāpēc ir svarīgi attīstīt runāšanas prasmes. Bakalaura darba tēma ir "Runāšanas prasmju pilnveide, izmantojot stāstus". Darba mērķis ir pierādīt, ka, izmantojot stāstu metodi mācīšanā, var uzlabot runāšanas prasmes. Darbā izmantotās pētniecības metodes ir literatūras apskats, gadījumu izpēte un triangulācijas metode. Izvirzītā hipotēze tika pierādīta ar gadījuma izpētes metodi, balstoties uz iegūtajiem datiem no studentu aptaujām un iegūtajiem rezultātiem mācību stundas novērošanas laikā, un apstrādāti sekojošos izpētes dar…
Sequestering Ability of Aminopolycarboxylic (APCs) and Aminopolyphosphonic (APPs) Ligands Toward Palladium(II) in Aqueous Solution
2014
The binding capacity of three aminopolycarboxylates [nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), ethylene-glycol-bis(2-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N,N-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), and diethylenetriamine-N,N,N,NN-pentaacetic acid (DTPA)] and two aminopolyphosphonates {(1-hydroxyethane-1,1-diyl)bis(phosphonic acid) (HEDP) and [[(phosphonomethyl)imino]bis[2,1-ethanediylnitrilobis(methylene)]] tetrakis-phosphonic acid (DTPP)} toward palladium(II) ion was studied by potentiometric and spectrophotometric titrations at different temperatures (283.15 ≤ T/K ≤ 318.15) and ionic strengths (0.1 ≤ I/mol·dm -3 ≤ 1.0) in NaClO4. The hydrolysis of Pd2+ and the protonation of ligands were always taken into account in the speciation…
Speciation of tin(II) in aqueous solution: thermodynamic and spectroscopic study of simple and mixed hydroxocarboxylate complexes
2013
This contribution reports the results of potentiometric and Mossbauer investigations on the formation, stability, and structure of binary and ternary mono- and binuclear complexes of Sn2+ with three hydroxocarboxylic ligands (namely L = tartrate, malate, and citrate) and chloride at T = 298.15 K in different ionic media and ionic strengths (0.15 and 1.00 mol dm−3 in NaCl(aq) and 1.00 mol dm−3 in NaNO3(aq)). The stability constants of various simple Sn i H j L (2+−) and mixed Sn i H j L k Cl (2+−−) species obtained in the different experimental conditions are reported, and various speciation diagrams of the simple and mixed systems are shown in different conditions. The sequestering ability …
