Communicating-care
2014
In the french context of nursing care teaching, this thesis aims at conceiving nursing as a process of mediation and communication notably between especially patients and care givers. The identified communication process involving values, self-identification and representation help to build up and express the caring professionalism. The background documents are organized from 5 types of data which are media focuses, caring acts, professional situation reports, life stories and monographs. These data allow the comprehension of the communication items which are used in the health care context, also the effects of the observed practice meanings and finally the care giver way of acting and rela…

Trauksme kā mediators universālo vērtību dimensiju saistībai ar pašcieņu
2021
Šī pētījuma mērķis bija izpētīt universālo vērtību dimensiju saistību ar pašcieņu un iekļaut trauksmi kā iespējamo mediātoru starp šiem mainīgajiem. Pētījumā piedalījās 244 respondenti vecumā no 18 – 87 gadiem (M = 39,33; SD = 13,96) no tiem 61% sieviešu un 39% vīriešu. Pētījums ir korelatīvi aprakstošs. Pētījumā izmantotas Švarca Portretu vērtību aptauja 21 (Portrait Values Questionnaire PVQ, Schwartz, 1992), Rozenberga pašcieņas aptauja (Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, Rosenberg,1965) un Trauksmes stāvokļa – iezīmes pašnovērtējuma anketa (“Self – Evaluation Questionaire”/STAI/, Spielberger, 1983). Analizējot pētījuma rezultātus parādās statistiski nozīmīga korelācija starp pašcieņu un uni…
Työnantajayhteistyö ammatillisessa kuntoutuksessa ja tuetussa työllistymisessä. Integroiva kirjallisuuskatsaus
2020
Tässä integroivassa kirjallisuuskatsauksessa selvitettiin, miten ammatillista kuntoutusta ja tuettua työllistymistä koskevassa kansainvälisessä kirjallisuudessa on jäsennetty työnantajien ja työhönvalmennuksen ammattilaisten välistä yhteistyötä ja suhdetta. Keskityimme siihen, millaiset työnantajayhteistyön toimintatavat ja strategiat on nähty toimiviksi ja miten yhteistyösuhdetta rakennetaan ja ylläpidetään. Aineiston muodostivat yksilöityjen hakukriteerien avulla valikoidut 19 tekstiä tieteellisistä aikakauslehdistä. Aineisto analysoitiin temaattisen analyysin periaatteita hyödyntäen. Analyysissa hahmottui neljä teemaa. Keskeisiä yhteistyöhön liittyviä toimintatapoja olivat jalkautuminen …
Labor market performance of dropouts: the role of personality
2014
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to provide evidence on labor market careers of dropouts with various levels of education. Design/methodology/approach – The paper compares the labor market careers of dropouts and non-dropouts between ages 15 and 50 by using longitudinal data. The paper analyses how the results change when the authors control for differences in personality characteristics. Findings – The paper finds that dropping out diminishes one's success in the labor market but this connection is reduced when the model is augmented with personality. Dropouts seem to have or lack certain personality characteristics that are associated with labor market success. These findings sugge…
The Effects of the Value-Added Tax on Revenue and Inequality
2019
This paper examines the impact of the introduction of the value-added tax on inequality and government revenues using newly released macro data. We present both conventional country fixed effect regressions and instrumental variable analyses, where VAT adoption is instrumented using the previous values of neighbouring countries’ VAT systems as an instrument. The results reveal – in contrast to earlier work – that the revenue consequences of the VAT have not been positive. The results indicate that income-based inequality has increased due to the VAT adoption, whereas consumption inequality has remained unaffected. Peer reviewed
Ordered fuzzy rules generation based on incremental dataset
2021
This paper proposes a novel approach for building transparent knowledge-based systems by generating interpretable fuzzy rules that allow for present dependences between quantitative variables by accounting for uncertainty and the dynamics of their values. In the approach, IF-THEN rules are used to show the conditional relationship between the ordered fuzzy numbers, which contain additional information about the tendencies of variables' value changes. This paper elaborates an approach of mining ordered fuzzy rules from numerical data included in an incremental database. This approach develops the ability to record uncertainty and its change in the context of rapidly changing data. In additio…
"Service-learning" within Physical Education university degrees: Physical exercise for elderly people
2016
La sociedad actual demanda cada vez más una participación ciudadana con carácter social hacia colectivos en riesgo de exclusión social. La universidad, apelando a su responsabilidad social en el ámbito docente, debería facilitar dicha participación y fomentar en el alumnado la transmisión de valores tanto éticos como de concienciación hacia los demás. Un método pedagógico útil para cristalizar este compromiso firme con determinados colectivos que realmente lo necesitan es el «aprendizaje-servicio» (en adelante ApS). En este contexto, el presente estudio justifica la idoneidad y viabilidad de desarrollar proyectos de ApS con el colectivo de personas mayores dentro de los grados universitario…
