Hermann Gmeiner’s Humanistic Concept
Authors: Karpenko Oresta
Published: August 2020

Humanistyczna koncepcja Hermanna Gmeinera

Artykuł opisuje główną ideę koncepcji pedagoga austriackiego Hermanna Gmeinera (1919-1986), jaką jest stworzenie SOS Wioski Dziecięcej jako rodzinnego modelu opieki. Przeanalizowano cztery zasady, które Gmeiner uzasadnia (matka, rodzina, dom, wioska), będące od dziesięcioleci podstawą funkcjonowania wiosek dziecięcych. Omówione zostały: istota pracy wioski dziecięcej oraz specyfika utworzenia naturalnej rodziny zastępczej o funkcjonalnej strukturze, w której dziecko uczyłoby się wartości ogólnoludzkich i narodowych, a także otrzymywało opiekę długoterminową, krótkoterminową, indywidualną, społeczno-pedagogiczną lub terapeutyczną. Autorka także poświęca uwagę zagadnieniom takim jak popularyzacja idei pedagogicznych Hermanna Gmeinera i działalności wiosek dziecięcych na całym świecie.

Ukraińscy wolontariusze – nowe pokolenie pracowników socjalnych. Problemy i perspektywy

Działalność charytatywna w społeczeństwie ukraińskim, które jest w stanie wojny, zakłada zainteresowanie kwestią pracy wolontariuszy socjalnych. W dziedzinie psychologii i pracy socjalnej także nastąpiły poważne zmiany – pojawiła się pozytywna psychologia zdrowia i pozytywne nastawienie do pracy socjalnej. „Rewolucja emocjonalna” następuje w zakresie pracy zawodowej, prawidłowego funkcjonowania osobowości i dobrostanu jednostki. Takie inicjatywy i nastawienie legły u podstaw prezentowanych badań.

Próba badawcza obejmowała 100 ochotników ukraińskich grup paramilitarnych. Zbadane zostały powiązania pomiędzy stopniem wypalenia emocjonalnego, cechami osobowości należącymi do „ciemnej triady” a subiektywnym poczuciem zadowolenia i dobrostanem psychicznym.

Okazało się, że większość badanych osób znajduje się „w granicach normy” wypalenia emocjonalnego, ale tylko w jego pierwszej i drugiej fazie, tj. „napięcia” i „wyczerpania”. Stosunek liczby ochotników o dużym nasileniu pozytywnych cech osobowości i tych o niskim nasileniu cech negatywnych należących do „ciemnej triady” i na odwrót – tych o niskim poziomie cech pozytywnych i wysokim poziomie cech negatywnych, będących w trzeciej fazie wypalenia emocjonalnego – wynosi 1,5, tzn. 64 / 42%. Paradoksalnie, wykazano także odwrotną korelację pomiędzy wysokimi wynikami w zakresie „ciemnej triady” a niskim wypaleniem emocjonalnym oraz dodatnią korelację pomiędzy narcyzmem a poziomem subiektywnego poczucia zadowolenia. Jedyny element, który różnicuje dwie grupy ochotników, to najwyższe uzyskane wyniki w zakresie dobrostanu psychicznego oraz sumienność jako cecha osobowości (wielka piątka).

Dane te świadczą o większej podatności na negatywne konsekwencje wypalenia wśród „dobrych” ochotników o wysokim morale (niskie wyniki w zakresie „ciemnej triady”).

Uzyskane wyniki skłaniają badaczy do odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy aby być „najlepszym” ochotnikiem formacji paramilitarnej, nie trzeba mieć dobrego zdrowia, lecz być w stanie znacznego wypalenia emocjonalnego i zawodowego w warunkach wojny?

Autorzy dokonują analizy złożoności zagadnienia godności ludzkiej oraz godności ludzkiej jako koncepcji oraz jej umiejscowienia w ramach dzisiejszych form i praktyk pracy społecznej. W związku z tym autorzy rozważają tematykę pojmowania godności ludzkiej, w tym godności ludzkiej jako wartości społeczno-prawnej, jej istotności dla pracy społecznej w ogóle oraz z racji podstawowych wartości relewantnych dla pracy społecznej. Autorzy egzaminują ewolucję podejść pracy społecznej wobec godności ludzkiej koncentrując się na działalności organizacji międzynarodowych, ich członków stowarzyszonych i partnerów związanych z pracą społeczną, których zadaniem m.in. jest promować oraz dbać o przestrzeganie wartości godności ludzkiej w dostarczaniu codziennych praktyk i usług pracy społecznej.
Radzenie sobie w sytuacjach trudnych a preferencje wartości osób bezrobotnych z problemem uzależnienia
Authors: Kirenko Janusz
Published: August 2020

Przebadano 244 osoby, w tym w tym 173 osoby bezrobotne i 71 osób pracujących zawodowo. Grupę osób bezrobotnych stanowiły 53 kobiety (35,3%) i 120 mężczyzn (64,7%), natomiast w grupie osób pracujących były 24 kobiety (33,8%) i 47 mężczyzn (66,2%). Większość badanych bezrobotnych, bo 154 (89,0%), nie posiadała prawa do zasiłku, pozostałe 19 osób (11,0%) miało uprawnienia do różnych form wsparcia. Wiek osób bezrobotnych mieścił się w przedziale od 21 do 63 lat, ze średnią na poziomie 36,8 lat, natomiast osób pracujących, od 20 do 54 lat, ze średnią wynoszącą 32,7 lat. Zarówno w jednej, jak i w drugiej grupie przeważały osoby z wykształceniem średnim, w tym policealnym lub pomaturalnym oraz zasadniczym zawodowym nad osobami z wykształceniem na poziomie wyższym i podstawowym. Wśród badanych bezrobotnych 58 osób było uzależnionych od alkoholu, 54 osoby od nikotyny i 61 osób od Internetu. Materiał badawczy zebrano za pomocą metody sondażu diagnostycznego, w skład którego wchodziły następujące narzędzia badawcze: Kwestionariusz COPE (C.S. Carver, M.F. Scheier, J.K. Weintraub), Kwestionariusz Wartości (PVQ-R2 – S. Schwartz), Ankieta „Badanie Postaw Wobec Alkoholu”, Kwestionariusz Tolerancji Nikotyny Fagerströma, Kwestionariusz Problematycznego Użytkowania Internetu (PUI – K. Young) i kwestionariusz ankiety. Uzyskano specyficzną strukturę związków wybranych zmiennych: wyjaśnianej radzenia sobie w sytuacjach trudnych, wyjaśniającej preferencji wartości i pośredniczącej rodzaju uzależnienia. Uwypuklono te, które mają znaczne oparcie w empirii. Zastosowana regresja wieloraka umożliwiła przyjęcie w miarę precyzyjnych charakterystyk otrzymanych związków pretendujących do miana autonomicznych wniosków.
Rubrycele i schematyzmy archidiecezji gnieźnieńskiej (1532-2019)
Authors: Krucki Łukasz
Published: August 2020

W archidiecezji gnieźnieńskiej od XVI w. zaczęto opracowywać dla celów liturgicznych i pastoralnych rubrycele, zwane później dyrektoriami. Najstarszy znany druk pochodzi z 1532 r. i wiąże się z rządami abpa Macieja Drzewickiego. W następnych stuleciach rubrycele przechodziły ewolucję. W XVIII w. zaczęto do nich dodawać część schematyzmową. Początkowo był to jedynie spis kanoników Kapituły Metropolitalnej w Gnieźnie i spis zmarłych kapłanów w roku poprzedzającym druk rubryceli. Od XIX w. zaczęto rozbudowywać schematyzm, tak że stał się do dziś istotnym kompendium o ówczesnej sytuacji eklezjalnej archidiecezji gnieźnieńskiej. W 1929 r. nastąpił rozdział druku na dwie publikacje – kalendarz liturgiczny i rocznik diecezjalny. Stan ten utrzymał się do dziś.

Jako że w omawianych drukach oprócz treści liturgicznych i pastoralnych z czasem zaczęto dodawać informacje administracyjne, stąd też druki te stanowią pierwszorzędne źródło historyczne.
Udział bernardynów w powstaniu listopadowym i popowstaniowe losy ich klasztorów
Authors: Sitnik Aleksander Krzysztof
Published: August 2020

Według historyków udział Zakonu Braci Mniejszych w powstaniu listopadowym był znaczący. W świetle źródeł historycznych piękną kartę w zrywie narodowym zapisali bernardyni w Królestwie Kongresowym i na ziemiach bezpośrednio wcielonych do rosyjskiego imperium, gdzie był duży ucisk narodowościowy i gdzie wybuchło krwawe powstanie listopadowe w 1830 roku. Środowisko bernardyńskie okazało się podatnym gruntem na hasła wolnościowe, stąd wielu zakonników uczestniczyło w ruchach wyzwoleńczych, choć należy pamiętać, że Stolica Apostolska zabraniała udziału w rewolucjach. Wielu bernardynów zgłosiło się na kapelanów oddziałów powstańczych czy do partyzantki pułkownika Józefa Zaliwskiego. W sposób szczególny wyróżniali się Poncjan Brzeziński OFM i kaznodzieja Benwenuty Mańkowski. Ważną rolę odegrały klasztory bernardynów, stanowiąc dla powstańców bazę przerzutową i wsparcie zarówno pod względem duchowym jak i materialnym. Na podstawie dotychczasowej wiedzy poza Brzezińskim i Mańkowskim żaden z bernardynów w okresie popowstaniowym nie został aresztowany czy skazany na wygnanie. Na podstawie fragmentarycznych wiadomości można jednak wysnuć wniosek, że rola tych zakonników w czasie powstania była niebagatelna. „Przyszłe pokolenia, jak pisał Charles Montalambert, będą sobie opowiadały o owej wspaniałej zgodzie duchowieństwa z ludem, [...] o tych Bernardynach i wiejskich proboszczach, przybywających konno, z szablą u boku, aby umrzeć na czele swoich owieczek”.
La funcionalidad política de la “ciencia” prohibicionista: El caso del cannabis y los psicodélicos
Authors: Martínez Oró David Pere , Apud Ismael , Scuro Juan , Romaní Oriol
Published: August 2020

Se analiza, desde una perspectiva externalista, el uso de la ciencia como herramienta política por parte de la lógica prohibicionista. El prohibicionismo trabaja para que sus preceptos político-morales sean considerados científicos, es decir, como el resultado de un proceso de investigación neutro a nivel ideológico. El artículo analiza el caso del cannabis y de los psicodélicos para mostrar cómo el prohibicionismo solo ha recurrido a la “ciencia” para ocultar su agenda político-moral, mientras ha ignorado todos los resultados de las investigaciones científicas que no se ajustaban a sus apriorismos. Finalmente planteamos que las políticas de drogas deben fundamentarse en la evidencia científica y en ciertos valores básicos –defensa de la salud pública, de la cohesión social, de los Derechos Humanos–, por lo que un análisis en términos de relaciones de poder permitiría entender mejor las contradictorias relaciones entre ciencia y políticas de drogas.
Compensation of Oscillating Instantaneous Power in Modern Microgrids Based on the Conservative Power Theory
Authors: Filho José de A. O. , Paredes Helmo K. Morale- , Bonaldo Jakson P. , Alonso Augusto M. S. , Marafão Fernando P. , Simões Marcelo G.
Published: August 2020

Considering the application of multi-functional grid-tied inverters in modern microgrids, this paper proposes a novel control strategy derived from the Conservative Power Theory (CPT), which makes possible the compensation of instantaneous power oscillations. Such approach is based on the instantaneous power and instantaneous reactive energy terms defined by the CPT, allowing the extraction of oscillating power components directly in the abc frame. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the applicability of the control strategy considering the scenario of a weak microgrid with linear, non-linear, and unbalanced loads, as well as comprising a three-phase multi-functional grid-tied inverter with LCL filter. The results show that active power dispatchability can be offered by the inverter, while concomitantly supporting the microgrid to operate at constant instantaneous power. Experimental results comprising a 3.6 kVA inverter prototype also validate the proposed decomposition of oscillating power terms, showing that they can be satisfactorily employed on compensation purposes.
Origem do Problema de Estabilidade de Conversores CC-CC Conectados em Cascata
Authors: França Rodrigo P. , Dupont Fabricio H. , Pinheiro José R.
Published: August 2020

O presente trabalho objetivou apresentar uma metodologia de associação de métodos de análise da estabilidade para aplicação em conversores CC-CC interconectados, validada por um estudo de caso. A combinação dos critérios de Middlebrook e Nyquist para a análise da estabilidade possibilitou detectar o surgimento de dinâmicas não-modeladas em função do acoplamento dos subsistemas que puderam ser identificadas por meio do Teorema do Elemento Extra (TEE). Além disso, foi demonstrado como a variação paramétrica afetou a estabilidade do sistema interconectado, apontando para a relevância que os valores de carga e os parâmetros do filtro de entrada têm nesta condição. Por fim, resultados experimentais foram obtidos de maneira a validar as análises supracitadas. Conclui-se que a associação de métodos de análise da estabilidade de sistemas em cascata foi essencial para identificar mais precisamente a origem do problema de estabilidade. Além disso, entendeu-se que as dinâmicas não-modeladas precisam ser consideradas na lei de controle empregada nos subsistemas para garantir a estabilidade do sistema interconectado por completo.

Authors: Haythornthwaite Benjamin
Published: August 2020

PICO question

In bitches and their puppies undergoing caesarean section, is an alfaxalone or a propofol induction safer?

 

Clinical bottom line

Category of research question

Risk

The number and type of study designs reviewed

Six papers were critically reviewed. There were two randomised controlled trials directly comparing alfaxalone and propofol inductions, two randomised controlled trials including a propofol induction in one of the experimental groups and two non-comparative studies.

Strength of evidence

Moderate

Outcomes reported

Propofol and alfaxalone can both be used safely for the anaesthesia of bitches and their puppies undergoing caesarean section. There is evidence that alfaxalone may provide better anaesthesia quality for the bitches, and the puppies may be delivered with higher indicators of puppy vitality following its use. Further research into the beneficial clinical outcomes of alfaxalone should be investigated.

Conclusion

The use of both propofol and alfaxalone for the induction of bitches undergoing caesarean section can be recommended.

 

How to apply this evidence in practice

The application of evidence into practice should take into account multiple factors, not limited to: individual clinical expertise, patient’s circumstances and owners’ values, country, location or clinic where you work, the individual case in front of you, the availability of therapies and resources.

The results of the caffeine content test showed that instant galangal functional drinks had caffeine levels of 2.63 ± 0.04%
Student Attitudes Toward Intimacy with Persons Who are Wheelchair Users
Authors: Marini Irmo , Chan Roy , Feist Amber , Flores-Torres Lelia
Published: August 2020

The present study explored whether students would be attracted to having an intimate relationship with a wheelchair user if participants were able to first see a head shot photo and later read a short biography of the person. Four hundred and eight undergraduate students were surveyed regarding their interest in potentially being friends, dating or marrying a wheelchair user. Sixty-six percent indicated they would have no problem dating and/or marrying a wheelchair user. A MANOVA revealed significant differences between gender, type of relationship, and experience with a prior disability relationship. Personal characteristics of intelligence, humor and appearance rated most highly. Those unwilling to date and/or marry their selection cited that the partner would be too much work, interaction would be awkward, and the partner would be sick often. Educators may benefit from training counselors about misconceptions regarding sexuality, whereas counselors can role play and provide clients with insights regarding societal beliefs.

Perceived Barriers to Employment Success: Are There Differences Between European American and African American VR Consumers?
Authors: Zanskas Stephen A. , Lustig Daniel C. , Ishitani Terry T.
Published: August 2020

Purpose

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate whether there were differences between European and African American vocational rehabilitation consumers' perceptions of the barriers they experience towards obtaining employment. A secondary purpose was to determine whether there were differences in these perceptions based upon gender or educational background.

Method

The perceived barriers to employment success of 189 consumers of a state-federal vocational rehabilitation agency were evaluated using the Barriers to Success Inventory (BESI) between 2004-2007. Univariate (ANOVA) and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) were used to investigate the effects of three independent variables (gender, ethnicity and educational background) on five dependent variables. The five dependent variables include the BESI Personal and Financial scale, the Emotional and Physical scale, the Career Decision-Making and Planning scale, the Job-Seeking and Knowledge scale, and the Training and Education scale.

Results

The results indicate that African American consumers perceived significantly more barriers to obtaining a job or succeeding in employment than their Euro-American counterparts for all five dependent scale variables.

Conclusions

African American participants' primary perceived barriers relate to practical matters, such as having sufficient education or training for the type of job sought, childcare, transportation, medical care, housing, and financial resources.
Test Equity for People who are Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing: Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification Steps for Implementation
Authors: Saladin Shawn P. , Reid Christine , Shiels John
Published: August 2020

The Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification (CRCC) has taken a proactive stance on perceived test inequities of the Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) exam as it relates to people who are prelingually deaf and hard of hearing. This article describes the process developed and implemented by the CRCC to help maximize test equity for this target group. Using recommendations from a group of national experts in deafness and rehabilitation, focus groups examined exam items considered linguistically difficult items for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and, from that effort, developed guidelines that could be used to address linguistic complexity concerns for future test items.
Internet Practices of Certified Rehabilitation Counselors and Analysis of Guidelines for Ethical Internet Practices
Authors: Lehmann Ilana S. , Crimando William
Published: August 2020

The Internet has become an integral part of the practice of rehabilitation counseling. To identify potential ethical issues regarding the use of the Internet by counselors, two studies were conducted. In Study 1, we surveyed a national sample of rehabilitation counselors regarding their use of technology in their work and home settings. Results suggested that all counselors use email and find information on the Internet, and some also use the Internet to socialize. Some online activities in which counselors engage raise ethical concerns. Study 2 was a content analysis of ethical codes of three national counseling associations and three states that license rehabilitation counselors for the amount of guidance these codes provide regarding Internet activities. Results indicated that although the ethical use of technology has been identified in the codes, there are still areas in which the guidance is only indirect at best.
Stigmatizing Attributions and Vocational Rehabilitation Outcomes of People with Disabilities
Authors: Yui-Chung Chan Jacob , Keegan John P. , Ditchman Nicole , Gonzalez Rene , Xi Zheng Lisa , Chan Fong
Published: August 2020

Objective

To determine whether employment outcomes of people with disabilities can be predicted by the social-cognitive/attribution theory of stigmatization.

Design

Ex post facto design using data mining technique and logistic regression analysis. Participants: Data from 40,585 vocational rehabilitation (VR) consumers were extracted from the Rehabilitation Services Administration Case Services Report (Form 911).

Results

In Study 1, data mining results revealed that the most significant predictor of employment outcome was type of disability. Consistent with the social-cognitive/attribution theory of stigmatization, the employment rate of people with physical disabilities (68.5%) was found to be significantly higher than that of people with mental disabilities (56.6%). In Study 2, results from logistic regression analyses indicated that VR services could improve outcomes for subpopulations of people with disabilities with low employment rates.

Conclusion

Employment outcomes of VR consumers were found to match the hierarchy of attitudes toward disability predicted by the social-cognitive/attribution theory. However, even with subpopulations with the lowest employment rates, VR services were found to improve employment outcomes.
Rosa's Law and the Language of Disability: Implications for Rehabilitation Counseling
Authors: Degeneffe Charles Edmund , Terciano Jacylou
Published: August 2020

National campaigns promoting the use of the term intellectual disability (ID) have culminated in the recent U.S. congressional passing of Rosa's Law. Rosa's Law changes how ID is referred to in federal disability programs by removing all references to the term, “mental retardation” (U.S Government Printing Office, October, 2010). Little is known about how the change in language will affect rehabilitation counseling practice and education. Accordingly, this article addresses the following: (a) history of the descriptors of ID, (b) the stigmatizing effects of terminology, (c) eliminating the use of the r-word through Rosa's Law, and (d) implications for the rehabilitation counseling profession.
Career Readiness and Individuals with Disabilities
Authors: Strauser David , Zanskas Stephen , Lustig Daniel
Published: August 2020

Purpose

The purpose of the current study is to investigate the relationship between career readiness, defined as capability and complexity, and vocational identity for individuals with disabilities.

Method

Forty-three consumers participating in vocational evaluation services for a state-federal vocational rehabilitation agency completed the Career Thoughts Inventory (CTI) and My Vocational Situation (MVS). Regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between two independent variables (complexity and capability) and vocational identity.

Results

The results indicated that the independent variables (complexity and capability) accounted for 52% of the variance of the MVS – Vocational Identity score. Partial eta square for complexity was .03 (small effect) and for capability .46 (large effect).

Conclusions

The results of the study provide support that improving career readiness contributes to improved vocational identity defined as the individual having a clearer and more stable understanding of their career goals, interests, personality, and talents. The Career Thoughts Inventory can be used by a vocational rehabilitation counselor to differentiate an individual's level of career readiness and develop targeted career interventions.
Rehabilitation Counselor Professional Identity Development in Master's-Level Training Programs: An Exploratory Study of Potential Influencing Factors
Authors: Barnes Erin F. , Rak Eniko , Austin Bryan , Louw Julia
Published: August 2020

Unifying the field of rehabilitation counseling appears to be a daunting task. Many researchers have investigated this phenomenon and have also written position papers arguing for a specific identity perspective: either as a counseling specialty or as a separate profession. The current study examined beliefs about the field of rehabilitation counseling among trainees and investigated factors that influenced these beliefs. A scale was developed to collect data about perceptions of master's-level students in Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE)-accredited training programs. Data were collected from 67 participants in 12 programs. Results indicated that two-thirds of trainees believed that rehabilitation counseling is a counseling specialty. Previous work experience of the trainees was most likely to influence this position.
The Working Alliance Efficacy Among Rehabilitation Service Providers by Education, Experience, and Disability Category
Authors: O'Sullivan Deirdre
Published: August 2020

The Working Alliance, consisting of building bonds, establishing goals, and developing tasks, has been deemed the cornerstone of helping professions, and has been found to significantly and reliably predict client outcomes. The importance of client characteristics and perceptions of working alliance has been established in the literature. Less is known about service provider qualities that impact the working alliance. This study utilized 104 rehabilitation service providers to assess the impact of education, work experience, and disability category on working alliance efficacy. Results indicate that rehabilitation service providers with more education had significantly higher working alliance efficacy pertaining to clients with physical disability. This suggests that master level rehabilitation service providers have greater confidence to build bonds, identify goals, and structure tasks when working with clients with physical disabilities. No differences were found between education groups on working alliance efficacy for psychiatric disability. Work experience was found to relate to working alliance efficacy for physical disability, not psychiatric disability. The results of this study provide initial support for the notion that rehabilitation service providers with more education and more work experience demonstrate a more effective working alliance in their efforts with clients who have physical disabilities. The non significant differences in psychiatric disability working alliance scores among service providers with varying education levels and work experience may be indicative of provider stigma or burnout when working with this population.
Identifying a Transition Competency Domain Structure: Assisting Transition Planning Teams to Understand Roles and Responsibilities of Community Partners
Authors: Plotner Anthony , Trach John , Shogren Karrie
Published: August 2020

The special education and rehabilitation literature is replete with articles examining transition planning, services and supports; however, transition models have typically been developed for the school context and not focused on other transition team members. These school-based models are important; however, models developed from the perspectives of other key partners could provide valuable insight and enhance transition team functioning. Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) professionals are often the only link that transition programs have to employment; therefore, VR counselor perceptions of essential competency domains need to be understood by both school and adult agency professionals alike. This study collected data from 291 vocational rehabilitation (VR) counselors from three Midwestern states. Exploratory factor analysis was used to identify an underlying transition domain structure. Seven transition domains areas are presented and conferred. Implications and proposed directions for future research are discussed.

Theory-Based Nursing Research: A Qualitative Evaluation of the Experiences of Nurse Educators
Authors: Yangin Hatice , Boz İlkay , Akpinar Arzu , Çiftcioğlu Şule
Published: August 2020

Background and Purpose

Investigation of thoughts, experiences, and attitudes of nurse educators regarding theory-based research is important. Ultimately, nurse educators are the producers of nursing knowledge and providers of education. The aim of this study is to understand the experiences of nurse educators in selecting and using nursing theory to guide and inform the quality of their research.

Methods

This study has a descriptive phenomenological design, and the sample was comprised of nine nurse educators who had experience with theory-based research. The data were collected via in-depth personal interviews using a semi-structured survey form. The data were analyzed with content analysis as described by Graneheim and Lundman.

Results

Four themes emerged from the results of the study: “awareness of theory,” “meaning of theory-based research,” “harmony with the theory,” and “changing towards scholarship,” with 10 subthemes. It was determined that theory-based research helps nurse educators to improve themselves in academic and personal terms.

Implications for Practice

Although the process of translating theory into research presents several challenges, all participants expressed that theory-based research contributed to their “theory advancing nursing science.”
Workplace Ostracism in Nurses and Its Determining Factors
Authors: Gharaei Laleh Haj Hasan , Ebrahimi Hossein , Namdar Hosein , Soheili Amin
Published: August 2020

Aim and objectives

This study attempted to identify workplace ostracism in nurses and its determining factors.

Background

Ostracism, which is a form of mistreatment in the nursing workplace, is neglected in the nursing profession although it can affect the quality of healthcare services.

Design

The present study was a descriptive correlational study.

Methods

Nurses in healthcare centers (n = 340) that had at least 12 months of clinical care experience were selected through proportionate stratified random sampling for the period from 2018 to 2019. The study instruments were a modified questionnaire based on the workplace ostracism scale and a questionnaire that assessed personal–social factors. To analyze the data, descriptive and inferential statistics were used.

Results

Participants' average ostracism score was 9.03 ± 36.63, and there were statistically significant relationships between ostracism and employment status, university of education, a record of getting an incentive, nurses' current physical disorders, and feelings of colleagues' envy and managers' discrimination.

Conclusions

Applying some approaches to educate nurses about interpersonal relationships and clearly communicating mutual expectations between the staff and nursing management could help solve this problem.

Implications for Practice

The study results will serve to guide legislators and managers in developing interventions to create supportive and safe work environments, both for nurses and patients.
Yanıt Yüzey Metodolojisi Şartlarında Karabaş Otu Yağının Kompleks Koaservasyon Yöntemi İle Enkapsülasyonu

Published: August 2020

Çalışmamızda karabaş otu yağı yanıt yüzey metodolojisi (YYM) ile oluşturulan bir deney setinde kompleks koaservasyon yöntemi ile enkapsülasyon yapılmıştır. Deney seti YYM’e üç bağımsız değişken (çekirdek maddesi miktarı, surfaktan konsantrasyonu, karıştırma hızı) girilerek oluşturulmuştur. Üretilen numunelerden enkapsülasyon verimi (%EV) hesaplanmıştır. Bulunan deneysel verimler YYM’e cevap yanıtı olarak girilerek analiz edilmiştir. YYM analizi sonucunda ulaşılan model önemlidir (p<0,05), R2 değeri %99,15, uyum eksikliğinin p değeri 0,217 (p>0,05) bulunmuştur. Elde edilen verilerden YYM’e girilen üç bağımsız değişkenin cevap yanıtı olan %EV’yi etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Deney setinden üretilen numuneler optik mikroskop ve taramalı elektron mikroskobu (SEM) altında karakterize edilmiştir.

Etyka w reklamie bankowej — zadanie (nie)możliwe do spełnienia?
Authors: Rutkowska-Tomaszewska Edyta , Szymonik Anita
Published: August 2020

W obecnej rzeczywistości pokryzysowej i sytuacji na rynku finansowym wobec kryzysu wartości ważnym i aktualnym problemem staje się konieczność powrotu do etyki i przy-wrócenia poważnie nadwyrężonego zaufania do instytucji finansowych, w tym do banków. Zwracając uwagę na specyfikę usług oferowanych na rynku finansowym przez banki, jak i samych banków, autorki niniejszego opracowania dokonują analizy objętych przedmiotem badań reklam bankowych pod kątem ich zgodności z zasadami etycznymi w rzeczywistości pokryzysowej za okres 2009–2019, z perspektywy interwencji podjętych przez organ samoregulacji, jakim jest Komisja Etyki Reklamy oraz organ konkurencji i konsumentów, jakim jest Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Konkurencji i Konsumentów, a także z perspektywy zaufania do banków. Celem jest próba udzie-lenia odpowiedzi na pytania — czy jakiekolwiek działanie reklamowe może być zgodne z zasada-mi etyki? Czy etyka rynku usług bankowych, w relacjach umownych banku z klientem, zwłaszcza konsumentem, w szczególności w reklamie bankowej, jest potrzebna, czy się opłaca, czy jest konieczna i czy jest możliwa, także w kontekście zaufania do nich?

Organizmy transgeniczne w Unii Europejskiej
Authors: Korbutowicz Teresa
Published: August 2020

Na świecie wzrasta powierzchnia upraw transgenicznych i liczba uwolnionych do środowiska odmian GMO. W państwach członkowskich UE występują odmienne tendencje, to jest uprawa GMO jest ograniczona do jednego produktu i występuje tylko w dwóch państwach. W UE rośnie sprzeciw wobec organizmów transgenicznych, a badania opinii mieszkańców Unii wskazu-ją na ich obawy i brak aprobaty dla żywności GM. Zwiększyła się liczba krajów stosujących klau-zule ochronne uniemożliwiające stosowanie GMO zatwierdzonych do obrotu na jednolitym rynku. Rośnie natomiast import genetycznie zmodyfikowanej paszy z krajów uprawiających rośliny GM. Obowiązujące w UE zasady prawne uznawane są za restrykcyjne i ograniczające uprawy transge-niczne.

Całkowicie prywatna opieka medyczna — próba zarysu
Authors: Wójtowicz Stanisław , Rozynek Kamil
Published: August 2020

In this paper, we explore what the market for medical services and products could look like if the state completely withdrew from the area of medical care. In section 1, we demonstrate that medical services would be purchased mainly through direct payments and medical insurance. We analyse two models of medical insurance: guaranteed renewable insurance and health-status insurance. Other types of insurance that may emerge on the market are also discussed. In section 2, we exam-ine how the privatisation of the health-care system would affect the prices of medical services. We analyse fundamental problems of the state-run health care and discuss how they contribute to small-er supply and higher prices of medical services. We then describe how the introduction of market mechanisms would allow to solve many of these problems. We argue that internalisation of the costs of medical care in a free market order would create strong economic incentives for individuals to take better care of their health, and we contrast this with the state-run health care in which these costs are externalised. In section 3, we explore how medical services could be obtained by individuals without sufficient funds. In section 4, we discuss how the quality of medical care could be ensured without the help of the state. We argue that competition between service providers would be the main guarantor of quality. We also identify mechanisms that would lead to spontaneous emergence of a system of private medical licencing.

Postrzeganie srebrnej gospodarki w kontekście wyzwań związanych ze starzejącą się populacją w ujęciu lokalnym. Studium przypadku
Authors: Bartkowiak Anna
Published: August 2020

An ageing society is a challenge of modern times. One of the areas where there is a chance for the effects of demographic processes to be mitigated, is the silver economy, widely understood as an economy that responds to the changing needs of different groups of older people. This aspect is evident in the development strategies being created at European, national, or regional levels, but to a much lesser extent at the local level. At the local level, actions are implemented that take into account the specificity of a particular social situation, that may differ significantly from the situation at higher levels. When drawing up development strategies, local governments and local opinion formers should have complex information of the demographic situation of a given territorial unit and should know the solutions applied in so-called good practices. The article pre-sents the results of the research (case study) verifying whether the solutions related to an ageing population, implemented at the local level, take into account the use of the potential of the silver economy and the knowledge of local governments and opinion-formers in this respect. A qualita-tive study was applied, based on desk research, the technique of individual in-depth interviews and focused group interviews.
Excess wealth transform for Pareto distributions
Authors: Skolimowska-Kulig Magdalena
Published: August 2020

In the paper the notion of excess wealth transform and stochastic partial order based on it, introduced by Shaked and Shanthikumar (1998) are considered. The relations of the transform with the Lorenz curve and with certain variability measures are presented. The excess wealth transforms for Pareto type probability distributions are derived and their point-wise comparison is studied.
Rozwój przedsiębiorczości w Polsce w ujęciu międzywojewódzkim
Authors: Stańczyk Piotr
Published: August 2020

The main purpose of the publication is to assess regional (inter-voivodeship) differences in the development of entrepreneurship in Poland in the light of the proposed set of indicators, calculated on the basis of statistical data collected by Statistics Poland.Bearing in mind the availability of empirical data, it was assumed that the level of entrepreneurship development can be demonstrated by the values of indicators characterizing three basic dimensions of entrepreneurship: propensity to start a business, innovative activity and financial results, including export activity. These dimensions were analyzed in terms of time — from Poland’s accession to the European Union to 2018.During the analyzed period, financial indicators showed particularly dynamic characteristics (especially in the scope of export activity and gross financial result). At the same time, great diversity and a large degree of spatial concentration in terms of these characteristics were maintained. The relation of newly-registered entities to de-registered entities in most voivodships was increasing, which may indicate a growing tendency to start their own business and, indirectly, also to increase the survival of companies on the market.On the other hand, the propensity to invest in innovation in almost all voivodships decreased significantly over the years under study, while the large disproportion in terms of the amount of financial expenditure on innovation activities — the budget for innovation in enterprises — persisted among voivodships. On the other hand, the smallest degree of diversity across voivodships was recorded for the percentage of innovative enterprises and the percentage of enterprises that incurred expenditure on innovation.
Quality of life of women: Selected results of direct research
Authors: Sielska Alicja , Sielska Aleksandra
Published: August 2020

This paper assesses the quality of life of women in Poland using a direct research method, namely a questionnaire carried out on a random sample of 503 people. The respondents were asked, first, to assess their own quality of life and, second, to evaluate specific factors such as wages, security, relationships with family, and forms of entertainment. We conclude that women in Poland highly and positively assess the majority of the analyzed components of quality of life. They pay the greatest attention to material issues as a result of Poland’s postwar and postcommunist history.

The introduction of an additional financial incentive for statistical interviewers aims to improve the quality of statistical surveys carried out in households as well as the quality of quotation of goods and services conducted in retail outlets and service points, inter alia, by increasing the completeness of these surveys. These are conducted by Statistics Poland and its local agendas, i.e. statistical offices. The aim of the article is to analyse the diversity of results of interviewers’ work in the context of construction of the bonus system.As a measure of the result of the interviewerʼs work, the survey completeness index was used, which may be the basis for the level of thresholds defining the amount of the bonus.
NECÂTÎ BEY VE MİHRÎ HATUN’UN “NEMED” GAZELLERİNİN KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI
Authors: ÇETİN Kamile
Published: August 2020

Klâsik Türk Edebiyatı’na mensup şairler, diğer başka ögelerle birlikte, yaşadıkları toplumun geçmişine ve içinde bulundukları zamana dair birçok unsura eserlerinde yer vermişlerdir. Bu bağlamda, Türklerin toplum hayatında dünden bugüne büyük önemi bulunan birçok malzeme Klâsik Türk Edebiyatı’nda, elbette bir kurgu dâhilinde olmak üzere, kendine yer bulmuştur. Bahsi geçen unsurlar, söz konusu edebiyat geleneğinde, bir redife konu olmuşsa bir şiir içinde baştan sona farklı tedailer ve tasavvurlarla ele alınmıştır. Bu bağlamda, Türklerde giyim kuşamdan barınmaya gündelik hayat içinde geniş ve önemli bir kullanım alanına sahip olan keçe de, Klâsik Türk Şiiri’nde hem beyit düzeyinde hem de redif olarak zikredilen malzemelerden biri durumundadır.
Makalede, her ikisi de XVI. asır Klâsik Türk Edebiyatı şairlerinden olan Necâtî Bey ve Mihrî Hatun’a ait “nemed” redifiyle ve Türk aruzu olarak bilinen “Fâ’ilâtün Fâ’ilâtün Fâ’ilâtün Fâ’ilün” kalıbıyla kaleme alınmış iki gazel karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirilecektir. Böylelikle, “keçe” ve “bazı tarikat dervişlerinin giydikleri ve sadelik anlamı taşıyan kaba keçe” manasına gelen ve esasen tasavvufî bir unsur olan “nemed”in iki Klâsik Türk şairinde bulduğu karşılıklar dikkatlere sunulmaya çalışılacaktır.
