2021
Pozitīva, uz savstarpējo cieņu balstīta vecāku un izglītības iestādes sadarbība ir viens no būtiskākajiem priekšnosacījumiem bērna personības attīstībā, mācību sasniegumu pilnveidošanā un sadarbības veidošanā. Sabiedrībā paustais viedoklis par vecāku nepietiekamu iesaistīšanos izglītības iestādes darbā, vienveidīgu sadarbības formu izmantošanu, kas nerosina sadarbību starp skolēnu, skolu un vecākiem, nemotivē skolēnu virzīties uz augstiem mācību sasniegumiem, rosināja darba autori Aiju Kokoreviču izvēlēties maģistra darba tēmu “Sadarbība ar vecākiem izglītības iestādes darbā pusaudžu mācību sasniegumu sekmēšanā”. Izmantojot literatūras un dokumentu analīzi tiek skaidrota sadarbības jēdziena…

Darba mērķis bija noskaidrot vai Latvijas mežacūku populācijā attīstās dabiskā imunitāte pret Āfrikas cūku mēra vīrusu. Tika izmantotas laboratorijas metodes, lai noteiktu antivielas un to līmeni mežacūku asins paraugos, kā arī vīrusa relatīvo daudzumu šajos pašos paraugos. Analizējot iegūtos rezultātus secināts, ka palielinās seroprevalence Latvijas mež…

Emergence of technostress among employees working with physical robots
2023
Despite the growing body of literature on technostress, there is limited knowledge about the emergence of technostress among people working with physical robots. In this paper, we aim to address this research gap by exploring how technostress emerges among employees working with physical robots. The study was based on qualitative online questionnaire responses from 197 present or previous users of robots at work. Based on our data, we identified several robot-related environmental conditions that contributed to perceived work-related stress. Our findings reveal that the emergence of technostress among employees working with physical robots has distinct characteristics and that the technostr…
