Índice de eficiência microbiológica de uma fossa séptica biodigestora
Authors: Ferrareze Feitosa Mateus
Published: December 2024

No Brasil, o saneamento básico não atende a maioria da população e o índice de tratamento de esgotos é ainda menor nas áreas rurais. Buscando alternativas para esta problemática surgiu a fossa séptica biodigestora, que é um sistema de tratamento ambientalmente favorável. O resultado final da fossa é um biofertilizante rico em fósforo, potássio e outros nutrientes que funciona como adubo auxiliando no desenvolvimento das plantas. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência do biodigestor e o uso do biofertilizante como suplemento para o desenvolvimento de plantas. A construção da fossa é simples e de baixo custo e satisfaz uma residência com até cinco pessoas; as coletas foram realizadas no período de 27/01/2018 a 10/03/2018, em que foram realizadas análises microbiológicas e físico-químicas. Os resultados avaliados foram satisfatórios e se percebeu um pH neutro, grande redução nos índices de condutividade, turbidez, DQO e DBO, bem como na carga bacteriana de coliformes, demonstrando efetividade no tratamento. Observou-se que o resíduo avaliado pode ser utilizado como fertilizante, mas não deve ser usado diretamente nas partes comestíveis da planta. Ele deve ser usado para outras culturas ou diretamente no solo, visto que não atende as exigências legais para quantidade máxima de Coliformes Termotolerantes e Coliformes Totais.

Characterization of medical device randomized controlled trials with adaptive designs
Authors: Su Gui , Shen Dan , Deng Dongyuan , Bai Qianqian , Xie Hui
Published: December 2024

Aim:
Adaptive designs are frequently used in drug randomized controlled trials (RCTs). However, their use in medical device RCTs remains unclear. We aimed to characterize medical device RCTs with adaptive designs.
Materials & methods:
We searched for adaptive RCTs in the following databases: ClinicalTrials.gov, International Clinical Trials Registry Platform and the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial Number registry. Adaptive design keywords and medical device corporation names were used as terms to search the trial records registered between 1 January 2000 and 18 October 2024 in the databases. The annual number and proportions of adaptive trials were analyzed, and characteristics such as design type, sponsor, therapeutic area, trial stage and regulatory status were summarized.
Results:
Overall, 105 adaptive RCTs were identified from ClinicalTrials.gov, accounting for 2.112 per 1000 trials in 49,721 medical device clinical trials registered in ClinicalTrials.gov during the period. The average annual number of adaptive RCTs per 1000 clinical trials was the highest (8.55 ± 11.65) during 2005–2010, reduced to 3.33 ± 2.35 during 2011–2016, and significantly decreased to 1.29 ± 0.85 during 2017–2024 (p = 0.011). The most common adaptive designs were group sequential design (GSD, 50.5%), sample size reassessment (SSR, 17.1%) and investigating both superiority and non-inferiority (10.5%). Most RCTs were sponsored by the private sector (62.9%), conducted in Europe/North America (95.2%), in the field of heart disease (46.7%) and post-market trials (76.2%). Compared with pre-market RCTs, post-market RCTs showed more diverse adaptive designs such as response-adaptive randomization and adaptive enrichment.
Conclusion:
The average annual proportions of adaptive medical device RCTs in ClinicalTrials.gov has reduced in the last 10 years. The most-used adaptive designs in medical device RCTs are GSD, SSR and investigating both superiority and non-inferiority.

Published: December 2024

Aim:
To understand the impact of the niraparib individualized starting dose (ISD), compared with fixed starting dose (FSD), on the cost of hematologic adverse event (AE) management from a US payer perspective.
Methods:
The frequencies of grade ≥3 hematologic AEs that occurred in >1% of patients treated with niraparib were obtained from the primary analysis results of the phase III PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 trial. US unit costs for each grade ≥3 AE in the base case were obtained from the 2017 Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project database; unit costs were adjusted to 2020 US dollars. AE management costs per patient were calculated by multiplying AE unit cost by the frequency of each AE by niraparib starting dose. Because AEs were assumed to occur independently of one another, costs were added to derive the total cost.
Results:
For niraparib, the estimated AE management cost per patient was lower for the ISD than the FSD for all hematologic AEs (FSD vs ISD: thrombocytopenia, $4701.87 vs $1921.89; anemia, $2784.00 vs $1760.59; platelet count decreased, $2103.47 vs $922.51; neutropenia, $2112.50 vs $1369.56; neutrophil count decreased, $1285.87 vs $770.38). The total mean calculated AE management cost per patient was $12,987.71 with the FSD and $6744.93 with the ISD.
Conclusion:
For niraparib, the cost of managing hematologic AEs in the US was reduced by almost half with the ISD compared with the FSD. The cost reduction and improvements in safety associated with the niraparib ISD support its use in clinical practice.

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo sistematizar a literatura empírica que relaciona a teoria da burocracia de nível de rua e o comportamento dos agentes implementadores de políticas públicas, utilizando- se como direcionamento o método dos 4Ws de Rosado-Serrano, Paul e Dikova (2018). Para isso, categorizou-se os achados em três dimensões (estrutural, ação individual e relacional), conforme proposto por Bonelli et al. (2019). Como contribuição central, tem-se oportunidade de incorporar conhecimento sobre o tema, fornecendo subsídios que auxiliem na redução das desconformidades entre formulação e implementação de políticas públicas. A pesquisa demonstrou que são necessários mais estudos relativos à burocracia de nível de rua em países onde predomina a fragilidade nas instituições formais, trabalhos que utilizem as três dimensões, buscando-se uma análise integrativa destes fatores e que os fatores relacionais precisam ser abordados de forma mais aprofundada para se compreender as relações burocrata-cidadão.
FATORES ASSOCIADOS À PERCEPÇÃO DA PRÁTICA DOS PRINCÍPIOS CONSTITUCIONAIS DA ADMINISTRAÇÃO PÚBLICA NA UNIVERSIDADE DE BRASÍLIA
Authors: Lima Alisson Assis de , Junior Luiz  Honorato da Silva
Published: December 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho é identificar quais fatores estão mais associados a uma maior percepção a respeito da prática de princípios constitucionais da Administração Pública (LIMPE) na Universidade de Brasília. Para isso, foram aplicados 893 questionários e, com base nos dados coletados, foi utilizado o índice LIMPE e indicadores de autopercepção e de percepção com relação ao ambiente de trabalho referentes à prática dos princípios. Em seguida, utilizando um modelo de regressão, buscou-se correlacionar os indicadores de percepção com características individuais dos servidores entrevistados. Os resultados apontam que a maioria dos servidores considera que a prática está presente tanto na própria conduta quanto no contexto do ambiente do trabalho. Os dados revelam que aqueles servidores que possuem uma percepção positiva sobre a prática dos princípios no ambiente de trabalho tendem a possuir uma autopercepção também positiva, e vice-versa. Evidenciou-se também que a idade, o tempo de trabalho, o cargo e o fato de exercer uma função de gestão possuem discreta influência na percepção relativa ao ambiente de trabalho e que o gênero, o tempo de trabalho e o cargo interferem na autopercepção do servidor.

Este estudo tem como objetivo central investigar e mensurar o nível de engajamento no trabalho de técnicos de campo de empresa brasileira do setor de telecomunicações. Adicionalmente, o estudo analisou as diferenças e semelhanças entre os respondentes quanto às variáveis de interesse do estudo e os seus fatores sociodemográficos e profissionais. Participaram do estudo 366 profissionais que atuam no interior de São Paulo e o instrumento utilizado foi a escala UWES 17, devidamente validada no contexto brasileiro. Os resultados obtidos indicam um elevado nível de engajamento, com média de 4,97, o que representa 82,8% da pontuação máxima alcançável. Identifica-se, todavia, a existência de um subgrupo na população (GPD) que apresentou isoladamente um resultado de 3,52, o que é considerado um nível médio de engajamento. Tal subgrupo apresenta uma proporção maior de técnicos com idade entre 20 e 29 anos, solteiros e sem filhos. Os achados validam resultados de outras pesquisas, sugerindo que o nível de engajamento está relacionado com a idade, ou seja, pessoas mais velhas tendem a ter maior nível de engajamento, e que pessoas casadas, separadas ou viúvas têm um nível de engajamento maior que os solteiros.
Feminicídio em discussão
Authors: Silva Patrícia Cordeiro da , Daróz Elaine Pereira , Garcia Dantielli Assumpção , Silva Taísa Mara Pinheiro
Published: December 2024

Em 2015 com a aprovação da Lei do Feminicídio no Brasil, o termo passou a fazer parte do Código Penal Brasileiro como uma qualificadora do crime de homicídio. A partir desse momento, a violência brutal cometida contra mulheres passou a ter um nome dentro desse código. Nesse sentido, é importante observar a importância de dar nome, trazer ao exterior o reconhecimento, já que não se trata de um homicídio “comum”, mas sim de um homicídio com motivações machistas e misóginas. Contudo, não deve ser apagado que junto com a nomeação do feminicídio vieram muitos julgamentos morais que energizam práticas machistas. O sistema penal direciona violência contra todos que o manuseiam, ainda que nele estejam buscando proteção. As mulheres devem desconfiar desse sistema, que oferece migalhas, a exemplo do inciso do feminicídio no artigo 121 do Código Penal Brasileiro, com verniz de proteção real às mulheres. Diante disso, a hipótese é de que a entrada do feminicídio como qualificadora no Código Penal conferiu maior visibilidade para esse tipo de violência, mas por outro lado, a vida das mulheres segue sendo exposta e revirada nos tribunais. A metodologia utilizada foi a bibliográfica, buscando desde a conceituação da palavra “Feminicídio”, luta das mulheres, o Feminicídio como nomeação e seus efeitos e o sistema penal em questão. No que se refere ao método, trabalha-se com a análise materialista histórica, considerando o discurso atravessado pelo poder que constrói as relações.

Published: December 2024

Quantitative data on the influence of spruce, pine and birch trees on the undergrowth of spruce trees growing under the canopy of stands are presented. The object of the study is the spruce forests of the acidic forest type. The condition of the spruce undergrowth, its height and age were assessed within a radius of up to 6 m from the tree trunk. It was found that spruce undergrowth grows most successfully under birch crowns - the average height of the undergrowth is greater than that of the undergrowth under the crowns of spruce, and the average age is less. It is shown that in a radius of about 1 m from the trunk, viable undergrowth under the crowns of spruce trees is represented by single individuals, and the proportion of dry undergrowth is maximal. The direct influence of the distance between the tree and the teenager on the viability of the younger generation of spruce is noted.

We analyse the diversity of aquatic molluscs of the river Orava in north-western Slovakia. The river Orava has been part of the protected area “Rieka Orava” since 1997 and included in NATURA 2000 as a Site of Community Importance since 2004. Although the malacofauna of the Orava reservoir had previously been partially investigated, the river itself had not yet been studied in detail. A total of 17 species of aquatic molluscs were found at 11 sites along the river, including 7 species of gastropods and 10 species of bivalves. Notable finds include the discovery of the rare Odhneripisidium tenuilineatum and large populations of Unio crassus s. lato (U. crassus sensu stricto and/or U. nanus), the species of European importance. The presence of these species emphasises the ecological integrity of this ecosystems and justifies its protection.

The Nexus of Citizen Participation and Value for Money in Procurement of Works: The Moderating and Mediating Role of Perceived Value
Authors: Agyekum Emmanuel , Abbey William Mills , Pokuaa-Duah Gloria , Appah Kenneth Asiamah
Published: December 2024

Aim: Although citizen participation has been widely studied, few studies assess the moderating and mediating role of perceived value in enhancing value for money in project procurement. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between citizen participation, perceived value, and value for money in the procurement of works within local government institutions.
Methods: Drawing on the theory of citizen participation, the study proposes a research model through which citizen participation influences value for money. The study model was validated using primary data from the field survey of 261 metropolitan, municipal, and district assemblies (MMDAs) through questionnaires. The informants included executive management members of MMDAs and citizen representatives who are assembly members.
Results: Using the Smart PLS-SEM analytical tool, a significant finding was that perceived value positively and significantly moderates and mediates the relationship between citizen participation (CP) and value for money (VfM). The study provides theoretical contributions to the theory of citizen participation (TCP) literature and managerial contributions to direct public officials and local community development partners to understand the roles of citizens who perceive value to achieve value for money in project procurement.
Conclusion: Empirical evidence demonstrates that perceived value has a moderate positive and significant influence on the relationship between citizen participation and value for money.
Recommendation: Citizens should be involved in local government decisions regarding project procurement if value for money is to be achieved.
Toward automated volunteer and authoritative bathymetry discovery and comparison
Authors: Debroisse Patrick , Miles Brian
Published: December 2024

Volunteered Bathymetric Information (VBI) (commonly called Crowdsourced Bathymetry, CSB) is a relatively untapped data source that could be used in many ways such as filling data gaps and informing future data collection expeditions. Determining the quality of VBI, has been difficult and time consuming leading to limited use in official nautical charts by national Hydrographic Offices. Despite this, the International Hydrographic Organization continues to collect and store CSB in its Data Centre for Digital Bathymetry (DCDB) in the hopes of widespread future use. Multiple methods of rapidly determining the quality of Volunteered Bathymetric Information are being developed, but data discovery, acquisition, management, and correlation with authoritative data remain cumbersome. In a world of limited staff and resources, automating this process will help to increase the speed with which VBI could be assessed for quality and incorporated into nautical charts, bathymetric models, survey planning, and decision-making tools. This article introduces an open-source program called VBI Compare, built to ease data discovery and management of VBI for quality calculations. VBI Compare automates interactions with the Data Centre for Digital Bathymetry and the NOAA National Bathymetric Source to locate, acquire, and manage the data required for quality calculations. As part of the data discovery process, VBI Compare ensures colocation of VBI and authoritative chart data and displays the data collected and processing status to the user. It also allows for data reputation calculations to be initiated. To demonstrate the significant efficiency of VBI Compare versus manual searching and downloading, an area near Galveston, Texas (US Gulf Coast) was used as a case study demonstrating the real-world utility of VBI Compare to a Hydrographic Office.

Influence of Metal Dopant (Cu, Co, Sm, Sn) on Ni/ScSZ Thin Film Anode in Solid Oxide Fuel Cell
Authors: Arifin Nor Anisa , Afifi Abdullah A , Kumar Navina , Roslan Nur Natasha , Muchtar Andanastuti
Published: December 2024

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are highly efficient electrochemical conversion devices that generates electrical energy through electrochemical reaction of gaseous fuel. Doping on the SOFC anode catalyst has the potential to increase the performance and tolerance of SOFC towards hydrocarbon fuel. An understanding of the doping effect of different type of catalyst on the SOFC anode is essential due to the differences in the characteristics of the catalysts and the impact on the existing anode catalyst microstructure with the dopant addition. This study is aimed to identify the effect of metal catalysts doping on the microstructure and electrochemical performance of Ni/ScSZ thin composite anodes on the SOFC electrolyte supported cell with surface infiltration method. The impact on the anode catalyst’s microstructure, distribution of element and elemental analysis was carried out using SEM-EDX and XRD analysis. The electrochemical performance of the cells were evaluated by the maximum power density and open-circuit-voltage (OCV) from the current-voltage (iV) measurement in hydrogen and in biogas. The results of this study found that the presence of dopant introduction of 5wt% dopant/Ni can be detected by EDX, but not with lower concentration. For Sn, Sm and Cu doped cells, the XRD analysis detected Ni3Sn, Ni2Sm and Cu0.81Ni0.19 alloy formed, respectively. Doping by 0.5 wt% of Sn/Ni and 5wt% of Sm/Ni  improved the electrochemical performance in hydrogen by three-fold and two-fold (184mW/cm2 and 100mW/cm2, respectively) compared to 49 mW/cm2 in the undoped cell. Addition of Cu showed the best tolerance with biogas operation. Co addition on the other hand posed a negative impact and the microstructure of the anode become overly dense. This work observed different impact dopant by various dopant on the cell’s porosity which influenced the electrochemical reaction. As the result with biogas deviates from previous investigation with anode supported cell, it can be concluded that for electrolyte supported cell with thin anode which have limited catalytic area as the reforming reaction reaction compete with the triple phase boundary area for  electrochemical reaction.

Published: December 2024

Yönetim ve organizasyon yazınının önemli kavramlarından biri olan liderlik için pek çok tanım yapılmış olsa da konuyu inceleyen araştırmacı sayısı kadar çeşitli açıklama bulunduğu kabul edilmektedir. Lider ve liderlik kavramları hakkında yapılmış olan çalışmalarda lider tanımlanmış, ayrıt edici özellikleri belirlenmiş, takipçilerinin varlığı ile ortaya çıktığı kabul edilmiş ve belirli durumlarda gösterdiği davranışlar önemsenip incelenmiştir. Dürüstlük, güven verme, ikna etme, iletişim becerilerine sahip olma, yaratıcılık, zekâ ve karizma gibi özelliklere sahip olduğu belirlenen liderin, bu özelliklerinden etkilenen ve onu kabul eden takipçileri ile olan ilişkileri de ayrıca çalışma konusu olmuştur. Lider ve takipçilerinden oluşan bütünlük içinde, liderin tüm takipçilerinin ihtiyaç ve beklentilerini anlaması, her birinin özelliklerini bilerek onları amaçlar yolunda yönlendirmesi gerekmektedir. Yapılan bilimsel çalışmalarla başarılı ve etkili liderlik süreçlerinin nasıl işlediği anlaşılmaya çalışılmıştır. Lideri ve liderliğin dinamiklerini anlama çabası sıklıkla sinemaya da yansımış; insanlık ve yönetim tarihi boyunca unutulmamış liderlerin hikâyeleri, sanatta ve popüler kültür ürünlerinde konu edilmiştir. Askeri liderler, ülke kurucuları ve yöneticileri, dini liderler, ideolojik liderler, spor takımlarının koçları ya da bazen öğrencileri üzerinde etkili olan öğretmenler, dünyaca ünlü şirketlerin yöneticileri ve girişimciler, kişilik özellikleri, değerleri, takipçileri üzerindeki etkileri ve davranışları ile pek çok filme konu olmuştur. Bu bölümde lider, liderlik ve liderlik yaklaşımları hatırlatılmış ve lideri ve liderliği konu eden filmlerden örnekler verilmiştir. Örnekler, farklı türlerdeki filmler için yapılan bilimsel çalışmalardan ve yazarın kendi gözlemlerinden seçilmiştir.
Play Therapy, Its Types and Use in Early Childhood
Authors: Semerci Arıkan Didem
Published: December 2024

Play therapy, which constitutes one of the important areas of child therapy, is a field where a safe environment is provided for children to express their feelings and thoughts and to solve problems through play, and where the therapeutic power of play is used to help resolve issues. Play therapy, with a history of about a hundred years, has changed, developed, and diversified through the practices of researchers until today. The use of play for therapeutic purposes first began with Freud and has taken its current form through the work of many researchers such as Hug-Hellmuth, Winnicott, Rogers, and Axline on play therapy. Play therapy falls into two main categories: directive and non-directive play therapy. Play therapy can take different names and be applied differently depending on the theoretical framework on which the application is based, the application environment, the toys used in the application, and the practitioner's approach. The types of play therapy frequently studied in the literature are; psychoanalytic play therapy, release play therapy, experiential play therapy, Adlerian play therapy, Jungian analytic play therapy, structured play therapy, Gestalt play therapy, filial therapy, group play therapy, Theraplay, cognitive-behavioral play therapy, child-centered play therapy, Storyplay and sand therapy. Play therapy, mostly used in children between the ages of 3-12, can be applied in many areas such as ADHD, anxiety, developmental delays, behavioral problems, separation, and domestic violence. Literature reviews show that many types of play therapy are highly effective tools in solving various problems such as aggression, anxiety, and shyness in early childhood, especially covering the 0-8 age group.

E-liderlik
Authors: Sak Haluk
Published: December 2024

Uzay çağını yaşadığımız bu dönemde insanların teknoloji ile yarışı baş döndürücü seviyelere ulaşmış, hayal gücü ve hedefler boyut değiştirmeye başlamıştır. İnsanlar ihtiyaç duyduğu şeylere artık rahat bir şekilde ulaşabilmektedir. Teknoloji yenilendikçe güçlenmekte, yeni teknoloji güçlü ve pahalı, eski nesiller ise ucuz ve daha kolay ulaşılabilir hale gelmektedir. Her geçen gün yeni uygulamaların piyasalara sürülmesi ile rekabet yarışında avantaj elde etmek zorlaşmaktadır. E-liderlik de, hem teknolojiyi etkin bir şekilde yönetebilme ve yeni bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerini takip edip kullanma, hem de pazar bilgisini, ağlarını kullanarak çalışanları yönetip yönlendirme üzerine kurulan yeni bir yaklaşımdır.
            Fiziki üretim alanları dışında ağırlıklı olarak beyaz yakalı çalışanlar için geleneksel ofis ortamlarına çok fazla ihtiyaç duyulmadığı gibi çalışanlar için rahat bir çalışma ortamı olduğundan, işletmeler için ise maliyet tasarrufu sağladığından uzaktan veya evden çalışma yaygınlaşmaktadır. Küreselleşmenin artık tek dünya anlayışına dönüşmesi ile deniz aşırı, okyanus aşırı ülkede yaşayan bireylerin aynı işletmede çalıştığını görmek doğal hale gelmiştir. Vasıflı insan kaynağı bulmak için artık ülke sınırları ortadan kalkmıştır. Liderler de belki de hiçbir zaman yüz yüze karşılaşmayacakları üyelerini yönetmenin keyifli ama zor anlarını yaşamaktadır. Çünkü hem bilgiyi hem de sanal ortamdaki vasıflı çalışanları yönetmek belirli yetenekleri gerektirmektedir.
            Sanal ortamlarda çalışmayı tercih eden işletmelerdeki liderler geleneksel liderlere benzer fakat farklı nitelikleri haiz olmalıdırlar. Bu nitelikler günümüz teknoloji imkânları ölçüsünde şekillenmekte, gelecekte ise değişimlerin olması ve yeni gereksinimlerin ortaya çıkması da beklenmektedir. Dinamik bir yaklaşım olan e-liderlik bazı özellikleri ile öne çıkmakta, uzaktan yönetim açısından da bazı zorluklarla karşılaşabilmektedir. E-liderlerin etkinliğinin artırılması için hem en önemli unsurlar olan güven, iletişim ve etkileşime öncelik vermeleri, bununla birlikte motivasyon, performans, ödül, karar verme gibi diğer geleneksel liderlik sorumluluklarını da titizlikle takip etmeleri gerekecektir.
Yeni e-liderler, potansiyel performans kazanımları için teknolojiyi benimseyecek, kullanacak; aynı zamanda bilgi ve iletişim becerilerini, pazar bilgilerini entegre etmek şartıyla tüm takipçileri ile başarılı bir etkileşim sağlayarak hedeflerine ulaşmaya çaba sarf edeceklerdir.
Makyavelist Liderlik: Güç, Korku ve Manipülasyon
Authors: Güngör Berkan
Published: December 2024

Bu bölümde, liderlik literatüründe oldukça tartışmalı bir yer edinen Makyavelist liderlik yaklaşımı ele alınacaktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Makyavelist liderlik kavramını hem teorik hem de pratik bağlamda derinlemesine incelemek, bu liderlik yaklaşımının modern dönemde nasıl yer bulduğunu anlamak ve literatürdeki mevcut saha çalışmalarını değerlendirerek Makyavelist liderliğin etkilerini ortaya koymaktır. Temel olarak pragmatizm, güce dayalı kontrol ve manipülasyon içeren bir liderlik tarzı olan Makyavelizm kısaca “amaca giden yolda her şey mubahtır” sözü ile özetlenebilir. Bu bölümde, Makyavelist Liderlik anlayışının tarihsel kökenleri, Niccolò Machiavelli’nin “Prens” adlı eserine dayandırılarak açıklanacaktır. Akabinde Makyavelist Düşüncenin gelişim sürecinden bahsedilecektir. Daha sonra Makyavelizm’in daha iyi anlaşılabilmesi için bu yaklaşımın alt boyutları derinlemesine açıklanacaktır. Makyavelizm’in tarihsel süreci ve kavramsal anlamı açıklandıktan sonra ise bu kavramın Liderlik ile olan ilişkisi, Makyavelist kişilik özellikleri ve liderlik teorileri ile birlikte açıklanmaya çalışılacaktır. Tüm bunların ardından literatürde Makyavelist Liderlik olgusunun etkileri veya diğer olgular ile ilişkilerini inceleyen saha çalışmalarının bir taraması yapılacak ve bu çalışmaların bulguları analiz edilecektir. Sonuç kısmında ise Makyavelist Liderlik kavramı hakkında net bir açıklama yapılması ve gelecekteki liderlik teorileri ve uygulamaları üzerindeki potansiyel etkilerinin değerlendirilmesi hedeflenmektedir. Makyavelist liderliğin güçlü ve zayıf yönleri üzerinde durularak, liderlik dinamiklerine farklı bir perspektiften katkı sunmak amaçlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın, Makyavelist liderliğin giderek karmaşıklaşan modern dünyada nasıl bir rol oynadığını ve bu liderlik tarzının örgütsel yapılar, çalışan psikolojisi ve etik değerler üzerindeki etkilerini anlamak açısından büyük önem taşıyacağı düşünülmektedir.

Market Orientation Balance and Resource Bricolage: Drivers of Innovation Performance in Chinese Mattress Enterprises
Authors:   Centre of Postgraduate Studies, Asia Metropolitan University (AMU), Johor Bahru, Malaysia., Zhang Zhiqi
Published: December 2024

This study examines the relationship between market-oriented equilibrium and innovation performance in Chinese mattress enterprises, with a focus on the mediating role of resource bundling based on social connections. Drawing on organizational equilibrium theory, social network theory, and resource-based theory, this research constructs a conceptual model to investigate how market-oriented equilibrium influences innovation performance through resource bundling dimensions such as political connections, business connections, and research and development (R&D) connections. A questionnaire survey of 494 management personnel from Chinese mattress enterprises was conducted, and the data were analyzed using statistical methods. The results indicate that both market-oriented matching equilibrium and joint equilibrium positively affect innovation performance. Furthermore, resource bundling based on social connections significantly mediates this relationship. The scale of Chinese mattress enterprises also positively moderates the mediating effect of resource bundling on the relationship between market-oriented equilibrium and innovation performance. These findings provide theoretical and practical implications for Chinese mattress enterprises to enhance their innovation performance through market-oriented strategies and resource bundling.
Impact of Non-Office Electronic Communication on Job Performance: Role Burden and Work-Family Boundary Tendency
Authors:   Centre of Postgraduate Studies, Asia Metropolitan University (AMU), Johor Bahru, Malaysia., Wang Wentian
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the impact of electronic communication during non-office hours on job performance, exploring the mediating role of role burden and the moderating effect of family-work boundary preferences. Using a sample of 602 employees from enterprises in China, this study adopts the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model to analyze the relationship between non-office electronic communication, role burden, and job performance. The results reveal that employees’ acceptance, urgency, and work-related relevance of electronic communication during non-office hours positively affect job performance and role burden. Role burden partially mediates these relationships. However, the frequency of electronic communication does not significantly influence job performance or role burden. Furthermore, the tendency towards a negative family-work boundary moderates the relationship between employee acceptance, urgency, and job performance but not the frequency, work-related relevance, and job performance. The findings suggest that organizations should manage electronic communication during non-office hours to maximize its positive effects and minimize role burden.
