Leadership Team Tool for better meaning making
2016
Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to present a Leadership Team Tool for developing reflexivity in the context of leadership teams.Design/methodology/approach– The Leadership Team Tool is based on the theoretical premises of seeing communication as meaning making, and therefore placing discourse and conversation in the center of developing leadership teams.Findings– The paper illustrates how reflexivity can be facilitated through a structured process of using the Leadership Team Tool. An empirical investigation of using the tool in an authentic leadership team setting is warranted to further develop the Leadership Team Tool.Originality/value– The paper makes a practical contribution to s…
Motivation zur psychosomatisch-psychotherapeutischen Bearbeitung von beruflichen Belastungen - Entwicklung und Validierung eines Fragebogens
2005
Background There is a lack of questionnaires assessing the motivation of inpatients to scrutinize occupational stresses and deal with them as part of their psychotherapeutic treatment. Work-related stress contributes significantly to the development of mental disorders. Vocational reintegration is an outcome criterion for the success of vocational rehabilitation. Patients are often not motivated for dealing with occupational stresses during inpatient medical rehabilitation. Therefore it is necessary to assess patient motivation at the beginning of treatment, in order to assign them to specific interventions, e. g. promoting motivation. Method A questionnaire (Fragebogen zur berufsbezogenen …
The Influence of Stimulation Techniques on the Microbiological Changes and n-Alkane Transitions in the Soil Contaminated of Petroleum-Derived Substan…
2019
Removal of petroleum products from contaminated soil is a long-term process requiring attention and constant monitoring. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Fyre-Zyme enzyme preparation and/or calcium carbonate on microbiological changes and conversion of n-aliphatic hydrocarbons in soil contaminated of petroleum-derived substances. The material for testing was soil contaminated with petroleum substances. The total concentration of n-alkanes with a C8–C40 chain length was 420.1 mg·kg−1 DM. The pot tests were carried out by introducing stimulators. As a decomposition promoter for n-alkanes in contaminated soil, a 6% water solution of Fyre-Zyme and/or 1% sterile CaCO3 was use…
MICROLENSING OF QUASAR ULTRAVIOLET IRON EMISSION
2013
We measure the differential microlensing of the UV Fe II and Fe III emission line blends between 14 quasar image pairs in 13 gravitational lenses. We find that the UV iron emission is strongly microlensed in four cases with amplitudes comparable to that of the continuum. Statistically modeling the magnifications, we infer a typical size of r{sub s}∼4√(M/M{sub ⊙}) light-days for the Fe line-emitting regions, which is comparable to the size of the region generating the UV continuum (∼3-7 light-days). This may indicate that a significant part of the UV Fe II and Fe III emission originates in the quasar accretion disk.
Bioactive pyrrole-based compounds with target selectivity
2020
The discovery of novel synthetic compounds with drug-like properties is an ongoing challenge in medicinal chemistry. Natural products have inspired the synthesis of compounds for pharmaceutical application, most of which are based on N-heterocyclic motifs. Among these, the pyrrole ring is one of the most explored heterocycles in drug discovery programs for several therapeutic areas, confirmed by the high number of pyrrole-based drugs reaching the market. In the present review, we focused on pyrrole and its hetero-fused derivatives with anticancer, antimicrobial, and antiviral activities, reported in the literature between 2015 and 2019, for which a specific target was identified, being resp…
Agents of change: Women in top management and corporate environmental performance
2020
International audience; We analyze the influence of gender diversity in top management on the environmental performance of French firms. Consistent with gender socialization theory, which posits that women are raised from childhood to be more nurturing and compassionate for others, we find that firms with more women in top management exhibit higher environmental performance. This result extends those already reported in the literature regarding the effect of gender diversity at board level. We also show that women in top management are associated with several key indicators such as development of eco‐friendly products and commitment to resource reduction. Furthermore, we find that the influ…
The Relationship Between Goal Orientation, Social Comparison Responses, Self-Efficacy, and Performance
2008
The present study examined whether social comparison responses (identification and contrast in social comparison) mediated the relationship between goal orientation (promotion and prevention) and self-efficacy, and whether self-efficacy was subsequently related with a better performance. As expected, the results showed that promotion-oriented individuals – who are focused on achieving success – had higher self-efficacy than prevention-oriented individuals – who are focused on avoiding failure. Only one of the social comparison responses had a mediating role. That is, the tendency to contrast oneself with others who were doing better mediated the relationship between a prevention goal orien…
Efecto del juego vs. el role-playing en la implicación de los participantes del Programa saludiversex
2021
El programa de educación afectivo sexual SALUDIVERSEX para personas con diversidad funcional intelectual (DFI) sienta sus bases sobre la importancia de la implicación activa de los participantes en las sesiones dirigidas a favorecer el aprendizaje de conocimientos, habilidades y actitudes saludables. Por ello, en las sesiones dedicadas a transmitir conocimientos sobre sexo/sexualidad, higiene sexual, prácticas sexuales y sexo seguro, así como, en las que se trabajan actitudes hacia la diversidad sexual y las relaciones de pareja se prioriza más el juego. Por otra parte, en las sesiones dedicadas a trabajar habilidades interpersonales se emplea fundamentalmente el role playing. El objetivo d…

Über die anionische polymerisation von acrolein. Polymere acroleine. 34. Mitt.1
1967
Acrolein wurde mit Lithium-, Natrium- oder Kaliumcyanid in Tetrahydrofuran bzw.in Toluol polymerisiert. Die Abhangigkeit der Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit und der Struktur der Polymeren von Reaktionsmedium, Temperatur und Gegenion wurde untersucht. Unterhalb -10°C polymerisiert Acrolein mit Natriumcyanid nur uber die CO. Doppelbindung. Es entstehen hochmolekulare, losliche Poly-3,4-acroleine. Oberhalb -10°C wird dagegen auch Polymerisation uber die Vinylgruppe beobachtet. Die Kurve fur die Abhangigkeit der Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit von der Reaktionstemperatur durchlauft Extremwerte. Es wird ein Mechanismus aufgestellt, der die jeweilige Struktur des Polymeren als Ergebnis von Gleichge…
