Authors: KAYA Emel , BAŞKAYA Ebru , CERİT Kamuran , KIZILIRMAK TATU Merve
Published: August 2021

Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effect of mobbing behaviors of health workers at work on attitudes towards violence. Materials and Methods: The study included 75 health care workers who are working in the two different public hospitals. Data were collected between March and April 2016. A three-section questionnaire was used in the data collection. In the first section was contained the demographic characteristics of the participants. Other sections were “Workplace Psychologically Violent Behaviors (WPVB)" scale developed by Yıldırım and Yıldırım (2007) and "Adults’ Attitudes Scale Toward Violence Scale (AASTVS)" developed by Gür et al. (2016). Results: 82,7% of the participants in the research had one or more encountered workplace mobbing behavior from one or multiple times in the last 12 months. The most encountered mobbing behaviors of participants, respectively; attack on professional status (79%), attack on personality (76%), individual’s isolation from work (64%) and other negative behaviors (27%) were found. It is determined to be satisfied with the work of the participants medium level (2.58±1,1). In addition, when the participants have problems in their departmants, they stated that they receive support from 50.7% of the first-level manager, 46.7% of co-workers to solve. Conclusion: In this research, it is determined to participants are exposed to workplace psychological violence situations between attitudes towards violence were positive and moderately strong relationship (r = 0.447; p< 0.000) and the exposure to mobbing behavior an impact of 20% on attitudes towards violence.

Published: August 2021

The aim of the study is to examine the effect of the Intrinsic Motivation Supportive Education Program on the motivation levels of preschool children. The study model has been planned as a mixed model. Quantitative dimension included the use of pretest-posttest experimental design with control group; qualitative dimension included the use of basic qualitative study design. The work group of the study consists of f 48-72 months old children the kindergartens of the schools affiliated to the Ministry of National Education, selected by random sampling method, located in a district with a low socioeconomic level in the city centre of Erzurum. Data were obtained by using "Motivation Scale for Preschool Children (DMQ18)" and Teacher Interview Form. Intrinsic Motivation Supportive Education Program consists of 4 subscales Attention and Problem Solving, Self Perception and Association, Independence and Self Discipline and Emotion Regulation and 72 integrated activities, with six activities from each dimension. Program was implemented 5 days a week and for 5 weeks. As a result of the analysis of the posttests taken after the program, the difference between the posttest scores of the experimental and control groups was statistically significant in favor of the experimental group (p <0.05); In the retention test regarding the permanence of the training program, it was determined that the effect of the training program increased in the experimental group (p <0.05).
ILHAN BERK IN THE RELATIONSHIP OF PAINTING AND POET IN LINE WITH THE CONCEPT OF INTER-ARTISTS "SEKER AHMET PASA / PRIVATE PROMISES"
Authors: ŞAHİN ÇEKEN Kübra , KURTLU Yasemin
Published: August 2021

In this study; The painting-poetry relation by Şeker Ahmet Paşa's "Education Men" painting and the poem "Şeker Ahmet Paşa / Talim Making Erler" with the same name, named İlhan Berk, were examined with the inter-art method chosen as a subject. The link between the structure and content of postmodern poetry and painting has formed the backbone of this study. In this context, it is aimed to examine the sources of modern and postmodern art, without leaving their own special fields, and while paying attention to their special fields, common concepts and images have been brought together. The research was conducted with the content analysis method on the basis of qualitative approach. In addition, in the study, the table of "Education Performers" was read with the method of visual reading and the poem titled "Şeker Ahmet Paşa / Talim Making Erler" was examined by content analysis technique. Ecfrasis has been handled in the relationship between painting and poetry, which has been intimate throughout the history of art, and two works have been researched in this direction. In the study, ecfrasis was explained and it was explained how it found a place in inter-arts. Berk presented a replica made with letters, which makes the work visible thanks to the formality of the poem. By looking at Şeker Ahmet Pasha's painting, he determined the credits of the painting and wrote his poem in line with this line. Thus, the content of the poem was included in the composition in terms of form, as well as the picture. In addition, while Berk attributes this work to himself, he emphasized Şeker Ahmet Pasha by placing the name of the painter in the name of the poem. The poet has made it a mission to serve and advertise the painting in this inter-art work in which poetry is the framework for the painting. With this study, which is thought to contribute to the literature, it is predicted that it will constitute a different example where ecfrasis and self-appropriation methods are used together.

ЦИФРОВИЗАЦИЯ ВЫСШЕГО ОБРАЗОВАНИЯ: ПРОБЛЕМЫ И ВОЗМОЖНОСТИ РЕГИОНАЛЬНЫХ ВУЗОВ
Authors: Бияк Л. Л.
Published: August 2021

Статья посвящена рассмотрению проблем региональных вузов в сложных условиях усилившейся конкуренции на рынке образовательных услуг и новым возможностям на пути активного сотрудничества. Дистанционный формат обучения обусловил глобальный характер конкурентной среды в сфере образования и, соответственно, обострил проблему обеспечения глобальной конкурентоспособности российского образования. Далеко не все вузы способны самостоятельно обеспечить свою конкурентоспособность, стать так называемыми центрами компетенций. Решить без преувеличения жизненно важную задачу обеспечения глобальной конкурентоспособности российского образования возможно только на принципах, говоря современным языком, коэволюции и коллаборации, то есть партнерства, активного сотрудничества, взаимодействия и совместного развития, что соответствует общенациональным интересам и целям общественного развития нашей страны.
ЛИНГВИСТИЧЕСКОЕ ОБРАЗОВАНИЕ В КОНТЕКСТЕ НОВОЙ ЯЗЫКОВОЙ ИДЕОЛОГИИ И МУЛЬТИКУЛЬТУРАЛИЗМА
Authors: Пак С. М.
Published: August 2021

В статье обобщаются основные понятия, относящиеся к новой языковой и педагогической парадигме мультикультурализма, актуальные для современного лингвистического образования в высшей школе – культурный релятивизм, гибридизация, лингва франка, транскультурализм. Необходимость такой новой парадигмы образования вызвана развивающимися во всем мире тенденциями интернационализации высшего образования. Реальные педагогические практики языкового образования совмещают два подхода, т.е., формирование системно-языковых знаний и умений вступать в социальное взаимодействие бытовой и профессиональной направленности, с разным «удельным весом»

каждого. Постулируется важность смещения фокуса в сторону «процедурных», коммуникативных навыков межъязыкового взаимодействия, т.е., формирование транскультурной компетенции; предлагается ряд коммуникативных стратегий достижения понимания (перефраз, переспрос, запрос информации, упрощение речевых моделей, т.д). Автор делает акцент на таких компетенциях преподавателя как саморефлексия, терпение и толерантности, поскольку иноязычное говорение для студента неизбежно выводит его из зоны психологического комфорта, поэтому педагогический профессионализм во многом связан именно с умением создать речевую интенцию, мотивацию к использованию иностранного языка.

Elemental Abundances and Ages of z ∼ 0.7 Quiescent Galaxies on the Mass–Size Plane: Implication for Chemical Enrichment and Star Formation Quenching

Published: August 2021

We present elemental abundances and stellar population ages for 65 massive quiescent galaxies at 0.59 ≤ z ≤ 0.75 from the LEGA-C survey. The abundance patterns and ages, derived from full-spectrum modeling, are examined as a function of stellar mass (M
*) and size (i.e., half-light radius, R

, but there is a marginal positive relation between age and mass. Our results support low-redshift findings that more massive galaxies form their stars at earlier times. However, in contrast to low-redshift studies, star formation timescale does not appear to depend on mass or size. We also compare the mass–[Fe/H] and mass–[Mg/H] relations to stacks of quiescent galaxies at z ∼ 0 and find that both relations increase by ∼0.2 dex over the past 7 Gyr. Furthermore, at z ∼ 0.7 we find a clear trend with age, such that older quiescent galaxies have lower metallicities. Both results can be explained by a chemical evolution model in which galaxies quench via gas removal. Future work, in particular with James Webb Space Telescope/NIRSpec, will extend this analysis to higher redshifts, allowing us to fully exploit abundance patterns to study the formation histories of quiescent galaxies.
A remarkable new genus and species of subterranean freshwater snail from a recently dried-up spring of Viesca, Coahuila, Northern Mexico

Published: August 2021

This paper describes a new genus and species of subterranean gastropod from a karstic region near Viesca, Coahuila in northern Mexico. Shells of Phreatoviesca spinosagen. nov. et sp. nov. were found in spring-deposited sediments near the outlet of a cave that dried up in the late 20th century. The new genus can be primarily distinguished conchologically from other phreatic genera by three remarkable characteristics: (i) prominent open coiling of the last whorl, (ii) shovel-shaped spine ornamentations on the teleoconch, and (iii) a coarsely honeycomb-like pitted protoconch structure. Since only dry shells were found, the new species could already be extinct. However, in view of the relative recent drying up of the spring, we consider that Phreatoviesca spinosa is possibly extant in the aquifers in or adjacent to the Viesca region.

Be-SAFE©: A Guide for Emergency Department Nurses Responding to Opioid Overdoses in Personal Vehicles
Authors: Clark Angela , Burnie Jeannie , Johann Randall , Baker Rachel , Hassert Christine
Published: August 2021

Opioid overdose-related emergency department visits have increased in the last several decades, prompting concern from providers about how to respond to patients experiencing opioid overdoses who arrive in private vehicles. In this study, our research team developed and utilized an iBook intervention to teach nursing staff how to safely attend to opioid overdoses that occur outside of the department. We discuss our study methods and aims, including development of the Be-SAFE© iBook content with the input of an interprofessional team of key stakeholders. Fifteen training sessions were delivered to 89 ED nursing personnel across five regional hospitals. Nurses (n=69) completed knowledge pre-and post-surveys and a Be-SAFE© Response Program Evaluation. Our results indicate that the Be-SAFE© iBook was useful to ED nursing staff and significantly increased the specific areas of knowledge regarding risk factors and actions related to opioid overdoses that occur in private vehicles.
De la bébologie au périnatal. Un parcours clinique
Authors: Missonnier Sylvain
Published: August 2021

L’auteur raconte les métamorphoses professionnelles qui l’ont conduit de psychologue clinicien de la première enfance à psychologue « avocat » de la périnatalité. Dans un deuxième temps, l’auteur se centre sur les limites des parcours académiques pour s’initier puis exercer dans cette spécialité, mais aussi sur les riches potentialités actuelles. Enfin, dans une troisième et dernière étape, pour répondre à l’invitation de Françoise de Barbot et Martine Frischmann de délivrer un message issu de ce parcours, l’auteur plaide en faveur d’une pratique interdisciplinaire clinique et de recherches qui aspire à sortir de l’ornière du clivage entre psyché et soma qu’il nomme le syndrome de la tour de Babel. Une orientation dont l’animation de la revue Contraste par Françoise de Barbot et Martine Frischmann constitue une remarquable illustration.
Parcours d’une pédiatre en CAMSP , quelles particularités dans cet exercice ?
Authors: Grange Catherine
Published: August 2021

Ce texte propose, à partir de vignettes cliniques, de plonger dans le quotidien d’une pédiatre exerçant dans un camsp . Cet exercice de la pédiatrie nécessite des connaissances multiples complémentaires à la discipline initiale de neurologie pédiatrique, et toujours à actualiser en fonction des recherches scientifiques. Le champ des compétences doit s’ouvrir à des domaines très variés, utiles aux problématiques des enfants et aux attentes parentales tant dans les champs de la périnatalité, des lésions cérébrales, que dans l’autisme par exemple. Il sera rappelé le travail de formation autour de l’examen neuromoteur, sensori-moteur, enseigné par M. Le Métayer, le docteur Grenier, le docteur Vasseur. Dans le cadre de la mise en place de plateformes diagnostiques au sein des camsp , il aura été nécessaire d’apprendre à utiliser des bilans standardisés pour l’évaluation diagnostique de l’autisme. Au fil des consultations, l’écoute des parents, la découverte de leurs compétences auront été d’un apport inestimable. Des échanges avec deux mères, suivis d’un travail d’élaboration avec le docteur Roy, auront mis en relief l’importance de l’accueil dès la première venue et la première encontre. Cela reste toujours d’actualité. Dans la suite logique de la prise en compte des expériences parentales, la mise en place d’un cvs (conseil de la vie sociale) allait de soi. Par contre, ces dernières années, la charge administrative vient mettre une note de lassitude dans ce travail passionnant. Elle n’est supportable qu’au regard de l’anxiété des parents qui cherchent à faire valoir leurs droits, défendent l’accès aux soins, à l’école pour leur enfant. La complémentarité des soins entre le camsp et les hôpitaux portée en partie par la pédiatre du camsp est essentielle pour un suivi de qualité, et apporte soulagement aux parents.
Enquête sonore des 20 premiers jours de l’intifada d’octobre 2019 au Liban
Authors: Kabbanji Lama
Published: August 2021

« Tous veut dire tous ». Ce slogan a uni en 2019 plus de la moitié de la population libanaise dans la rue contre l’oligarchie au pouvoir, au-delà des clivages confessionnels, régionaux ou de classe. Cet article propose une exploration sonore des vingt premiers jours de l’intifada du 17 octobre. L’enquête sonore est proposée comme approche méthodologique permettant l’exploration d’un mouvement social à ses débuts. Les enregistrements sonores permettent à la fois de capter, de faire revivre, et d’analyser les ambiances et les émotions sur le vif puis de zoomer sur les mots de la révolte : discours, interactions, slogans. Au fil des enregistrements se dévoile le rôle clé des jeunes générations ainsi que le répertoire discursif que celles-ci mobilisent pour expliquer leur révolte : le refus de l’exil, l’accès à une éducation publique, gratuite et de qualité ainsi qu’à une offre de travail locale. Cette approche permet de préciser certaines dynamiques sociales qui sous-tendent l’intifada d’octobre, notamment la rencontre entre les classes rendue possible par la crise du système capitaliste au Liban, et les espoirs que cette rencontre a suscités.
La coproduction des visages au Liban. Une enquête d’anatomie culturelle

Cet article relate les résultats d’une enquête sur les modifications chirurgicales du visage au Liban où existe une culture spécifique de la beauté inscrite dès les socialisations de l’enfance. Il décrit le recourt à la chirurgie esthétique en lien avec les rituels familiaux et sociaux. Il s’intéresse ensuite aux imaginaires phénotypiques en partant de la coproduction du visage entre le chirurgien et ses clientes. Il interroge les registres discursifs de la pratique articulant ethnicisation et naturalisme , et soulève pour finir une interrogation sur la tension entre acculturation anatomique et modèle néoténique.
Des oiseaux pour se raconter et rêver : ethnographie d’une passion colombophile (Liban)
Authors: Aubin-Boltanski Emma
Published: August 2021

À partir d’une ethnographie réalisée dans un bidonville de Beyrouth, cet article s’intéresse à la colombophilie ( kashsh ḥamām en arabe). Suivant la proposition de Clifford Geertz, il envisage ce jeu comme une « sémantique sociale », une façon de se raconter et de décrire la société dans laquelle on évolue. Pour autant, le kashsh ḥamām ne peut être réduit à un simple reflet de la réalité sociale. Il constitue aussi un espace-temps où des hommes s’autorisent à rêver d’un monde autre que celui dans lequel ils se trouvent « encagés ».
Des rapports d’âge bouleversés ? Épreuves corporelles, morales et sociotechniques dans la maladie chronique
Authors: Perrot Adeline
Published: August 2021

Dans la vie quotidienne, les catégorisations d’âge (civile, biologique et statutaire) passent généralement inaperçues. Seul un évènement ou une situation particulière sont susceptibles de rompre avec le cours normal des activités et de mettre en évidence les conduites attendues selon la date de naissance, le vieillissement biologique, ou encore, la période de la vie. La maladie chronique représente une des expériences qui déstabilise les classements d’âge sur les plans inter et intragénérationnels. L’article met en évidence la manière dont les personnes atteintes de la maladie neuromusculaire de Steinert composent avec les épreuves corporelles, matérielles, affectives et morales, susceptibles d’induire la réaffirmation ou la révision des catégories d’âge.
Mictions impossibles. Uriner dans l’espace public aux fêtes de Bayonne
Authors: Steiner Philippe
Published: August 2021

Cet article examine la question des urinoirs à l’occasion du grand rassemblement festif qui se tient dans la ville de Bayonne. À partir d’observations directes (2017, 2018 et 2019), d’entretiens avec des festayres, des cafetiers et des membres de l’administration de la ville, et d’un dépouillement du principal journal local, cet article montre comment se pose le problème des mictions sauvages au cours des fêtes. Après avoir examiné comment la mairie tente de contrôler ce phénomène, l’article met l’accent sur la stratégie normative de « rappel à l’hygiène », équivalent moderne des manuels de savoir-vivre mobilisés par Norbert Elias.
NATO’s Emerging Policy Reset on China
Authors: Bastian Jens
Published: August 2021

L’expansion du poids commercial et des investissements de la Chine en Europe pose de nombreux défis aux organisations multilatérales internationales. Récemment, l’expansion de la Chine a aussi gagné les secteurs de la sécurité et de la défense ; c’est le cas, par exemple, en Serbie, pays voisin de quatre membres de l’OTAN. Si les organes politiques de l’OTAN ont réagi tardivement à ces développements chinois, ils procèdent aujourd’hui à une révision stratégique et placent la Chine en tête de leur agenda politique. Cette contribution fait valoir que les actions l’OTAN, en tant que processus en cours d’élaboration, sont susceptibles de mettre à l’épreuve la cohésion interne de l’organisation de sécurité et de défense dans les années à venir.

How to Understand Chinese Ideas in EU-China Communication?
Authors: Shi Jian , Liang Ping
Published: August 2021

Dans l’étude des relations sino-européennes, le domaine de la traduction demeure peu exploré. La traduction joue pourtant un rôle important dans la facilitation du dialogue entre les peuples et pour la compréhension mutuelle entre la Chine et l’Europe. La traduction constitue le socle de l’échange d’idées dans la communication politique entre les deux parties. En examinant les changements apportés à la traduction officielle chinoise de trois concepts politiques clés dans leur diffusion internationale au cours des dernières années, cet article soutient que la variance de la traduction et le manque de contextes culturels entraînent des compréhensions différenciées de ces idées clés. Il s’agit d’attirer l’attention sur le rôle de la traduction dans l’efficacité de la communication internationale, ainsi que sur la nécessité de combiner les études de traduction avec la recherche sur les relations internationales.
Monde, victime consentante de la Chine. Ambiguïté et duplicité de l’Europe carbonée
Authors: Rousseau Jean-Marie
Published: August 2021

L’offensive lancée la Chine pour la sortie de crise d’après Covid s’est inscrite dans un très long processus d’intelligence économique et géopolitique. La révolution numérique, plus qu’une simple transition, procède d’une remise en cause de l’ordre mondial. Le barycentre qui était au XXe siècle Nord-Atlantique a muté en barycentre Nord-Pacifique. Dans ce contexte, le concept de neutralité carbone, tel qu’exposé à l’Accord de Paris 2015, concède une responsabilité et des capacités différentes entre les nations, laissant à la Chine plus de temps et davantage de souplesse pour répondre à cette aspiration commune de décarbonation. Il n’est jamais question des dangers encourus par l’exploitation – et l’extraction de métaux et minéraux nécessaires aux technologies numériques – dont l’empreinte carbone se révèle pourtant autrement plus néfaste et dangereuse en termes environnementaux et climatiques.

La GRH en terrains africains : le piège culturaliste comme enseignement
Authors: Besson Dominique
Published: August 2021

Nous analysons quelques travaux francophones récents de recherche sur la gestion des ressources humaines (GRH) en contexte africain. La plupart des études se basent sur des études de cas et mettent en avant les spécificités africaines d’un point de vue culturel. Ces études semblent présenter deux faiblesses. Elles sont souvent peu conceptualisées et procèdent de la validation de présupposés et se caractérisent par la présence du biais culturaliste. Suivant en cela certains auteurs, nous estimons nécessaire une déconstruction de l’essentialisme culturel qui imprègne la plupart des travaux, en faveur notamment d’approches (néo) institutionnelles qui donnent toute leur place aux jeux d’acteurs et aux phénomènes de pouvoir.
Appropriation d’une innovation sous l’angle de la théorie de la traduction : le cas de l’Université Gaston Berger de Saint-Louis au Sénégal
Authors: Ndao Assane , Kane Demba
Published: August 2021

Cette étude porte sur l’appropriation d’un contrat de performance (CDP) par les acteurs de l’Unité de Formation et de Recherche des Sciences Economiques et de Gestion (UFR SEG) de l’Université Gaston Berger de Saint-Louis. L’introduction des contrats de performance dans les universités constitue une nouveauté dans le contexte des universités sénégalaises. Elle s’inscrit dans le cadre du nouveau management public (logique de résultat, mise en concurrence des services publics, rationalisation des coûts publics). Pour réaliser cette étude, nous avons choisi une démarche qualitative avec une étude de cas exploratoire. Nous avons ainsi effectué trente entretiens semi-directifs. Les résultats obtenus montrent que les acteurs ne se sont pas totalement appropriés le CDP du fait que beaucoup de facteurs n’ont pas été respectés dans le processus d’appropriation.
L’amélioration de la performance des flux logistiques par les dispositifs de contrôle et de formalisation des accords inter-organisationnels ?
Authors: Benrrezzouq Rhizlane , Frij Rafia , Chraibi Abdeslam , Aliouat Boualem
Published: August 2021

Le contrôle et la confiance sont des thèmes souvent présentés par la littérature en sciences de gestion comme antinomiques alors que la pratique au contraire a tendance à les associer. Nous tentons ici de vérifier cette relation dans le cas particulier de la performance logistique. Cet article repose ainsi sur l’hypothèse générale selon laquelle la confiance et le contrôle sont positivement reliés à une gestion performante des flux logistiques. Cette présomption générale donne corps à un ensemble d’hypothèses et, par extension, à un modèle conceptuel. Nous testons ce modèle, et les liens entre variables qu’il suppose à l’aide d’un modèle d’équations structurelles. Nos résultats confirment le rôle central joué par la confiance dans la gestion des flux logistiques d’une part, et ils confirment l’effet positif du contrôle sur la confiance, d’autre part.
Second order cone programming formulation of the fixed cost allocation in DEA based on Nash bargaining game
Authors: Golsefid Narges Torabi , Salahi Maziar
Published: August 2021

A vital issue in many organizations is the fair allocation of fixed cost among its subsets. In this paper, using data envelopment analysis, first we study fixed cost allocation based on both additive and multiplicative efficiency decompositions in the cooperative context for a two-stage structure in the presence of exogenous inputs and outputs. A conic relaxation formulation of multiplicative decomposition is given. Then, fixed cost allocation based on the leader-follower paradigm are presented. In the sequel, for allocating a fair fixed cost between the stages, using the results of the leader-follower model, we present the nonlinear Nash bargaining game model that independent of the efficiency score of each unit, allocates fixed cost to the stages. The nonlinear model is reformulated as a second order cone program which is an imporvement over the parametric linear models in the literature. Finally, two examples are used to illustrate the proposed models and compare their results with the existing models.

Authors: Khatun Madhury , Miah Shah J.
Published: August 2021

This chapter reviews methods to develop a decision support system (DSS) for small business managers. The primary objective is to support managers, making strategic decisions for achieving competitive advantages in the business-to-consumer (B2C) e-commerce environment. Many researchers in the DSS domain utilized various methods to design information systems (IS) solution, mostly intended for large businesses. None of the researchers have considered the business environment as a knowledge source for DSS development of small business strategic decision support needs. User-centered design (UCD) and design science research (DSR) method were adopted for DSS development. DSR was appropriate because it addresses the real-world application environment where research problem or opportunity are defined. Multiple case studies and web content analysis were carried out for understanding business problems, needs, and system requirements. This study used the qualitative and descriptive data analysis methods. The findings suggested developing a DSS solution to meet the small business strategic needs.
The Effects of Behavioral Factors on the Creditworthiness of Small-Scale Enterprises
Authors: Shevchenko Dmitry , Godwin Ellah Igoche
Published: August 2021

This chapter uses the relationship between behavioral factors and the creditworthiness of small-scale enterprises to increase access of SMEs to credit facilities. The inability of several small businesses to secure loans cannot be overemphasized. Heuristics affecting entrepreneurs are explained in this chapter, and a regression model showing the dependence of creditworthiness on behavioral factors is proposed. If banks consider using psychometric tools in testing for creditworthiness of small-scale entrepreneurs, access to credit facilities will be significantly increased and businesses will flourish. Regressesion models such as the one explained in this chapter may be imbedded in psychometric tools to enhance creditworthiness testing and improve the quality of loans that banks give.
Exports and Female Entrepreneurs
Authors: Thompson Piers , Zang Wenyu
Published: August 2021

The UK's decision to leave the European Union based on the 2016 referendum has created considerable uncertainty in the UK economy. For UK small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to survive, export markets may become more important. This chapter examines the impact from the presence of foreign direct investment (FDI). The influence of gender on this relationship has not been previously investigated. Using data from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) regression approaches are applied. A negative relationship is found between foreign influence and export propensity and intensity. No evidence is found for female entrepreneurs as a whole being affected to a greater extent. However, female entrepreneurs with less human capital are affected to a greater extent. These findings suggest that when seeking to attract FDI policymakers must be aware of the potential negative consequences. Training offered to the most vulnerable female entrepreneurs in collaboration with foreign affiliates might counter any negative effects to achieve greater positive knowledge spillovers.

Published: August 2021

The objective of this chapter is to propose a methodology for the measurement of value chain relational coordination of SMEs. For this purpose, the case of the measurement of relational coordination of the value chain of a small safety footwear company of Ambato, Ecuador is analyzed. The results of the analysis show that the measurement of relational coordination in the value chain of SMEs presents several challenges. Some of the challenges are the result of some characteristics of SMEs such as the lack of strategy, processes, and functions formalization. Other challenges are derived from the size and power asymmetry of chain members and the geographical distance between them. Five steps are proposed for the measurement of relational coordination of the value chain of SMEs.
Information Security Practices in Small-to-Medium Sized Businesses
Authors: Marett Kent , Barnett Tim
Published: August 2021

Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in North America do not always adequately address security. Based on responses from 232 SME owners and managers, the authors found that the adoption of security recommendations made by experts appear to be significantly influenced by the decisions of other local SMEs. A hot-spot analysis of information security practices suggested that local trends lead to prioritizing certain security practices and not adopting others. Follow-up interviews with business owners and Chamber of Commerce directors provided insights on how security hotspots developed or not. The study identified both hot spot and cold spot communities, and sought to assess how local business networking conduits like chambers of commerce help promote best security practices

The main aim of the article is to identify the relationship between the degree of internationalization and social media usage within different forms of marketing communication in foreign markets. Data was gathered from individual interviews conducted among 334 companies that operate on the Polish market and which are active internationally in terms of marketing communication. Two key findings emerge from the research. First, the strongest correlation between the form of internationalization and the use of social media was obtained as far as advertising (as a form of marketing communication) is concerned. Second, the number of foreign markets a company operates is correlated with the use of social media in terms of all forms of marketing communication.

The rapid adoption of social media in business is becoming more evident over the years. Most businesses view social media as a chance to build two-way communication with customers and to create unique marketing communication tools. Nonetheless, research on social media adoption, particularly, in the case of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is still limited. In Brunei Darussalam, SMEs are regarded as a key player in industrial development. Thus, the objectives of this study are to investigate the factors that mainly drive social media adoption among the SMEs in Brunei, to determine the types of social media platforms that they used as well as to examine the potential benefits and challenges of adopting it. The researchers administered online questionnaires to 57 CEO or managers of local SMEs. Based on the empirical findings of this research, technological factors, ease of use and perceived benefits, are the prominent drivers for social media adoption among SMEs in Brunei.

The Role of Family Ownership in Survival and Bouncing Back
Authors: Iborra María , Safón Vicente , Dolz Consuelo
Published: August 2021

The latest global economic and financial crisis has been a litmus test for companies, especially for SMEs. These companies have had to demonstrate their ability to be resilient, surviving first and then recovering. This chapter studies the role of family ownership in the survival and recovery of SMEs during a stressful event. From a perspective based on the complementarity or substitutability of goals that family firms pursue, the authors propose that family ownership has a positive effect on survival but a negative effect on recovery. Furthermore, they propose that the risk of bankruptcy before a crisis moderates the relationship between family ownership and survival. Hypotheses have been tested with a dataset of 3,133 Spanish manufacturing MEs finding evidence for the positive role of family ownership in survival and for the moderating effect of previous bankruptcy risk. The empirical data confirms good news for family-owned firms.
