O Judicial Review e o ativismo judicial da Suprema Corte americana na proteção de direitos fundamentais
Authors: Barboza Estefania Maria de Queiroz , Kozicki Katya 
Published: December 2016

Resumo: No presente artigo examinaram-se as origens históricas do judicial review nos Estados Unidos da América desde o caso Marbury v. Madison até a Corte Burger, bem como os reflexos de sua concepção no chamado “ativismo judicial” norte-americano, o qual acabou por priorizar o papel da jurisdição constitucional na proteção dos direitos fundamentais garantidos na Constituição, mesmo que isso implicasse enfrentar questões tipicamente políticas. Ou seja, apresentaram-se casos nos quais a Suprema Corte atuou de forma ativista especialmente na proteção de direitos fundamentais, embora em outros momentos tenha atuado justamente no sentido contrário, como na Era Lochner, numa postura conservadora em relação à proteção de direitos.

Published: December 2016

The aim of this study is to analyze the gender differences on computer-related achievement, anxiety and attitude in Turkey sample. With an aim to combine the results obtained from the independent studies conducted on computer achievement, computer anxiety and computer-related attitude; three different meta-analysis studies were conducted. Various criteria were used in order to determine which studies were going to be included in meta-analysis. Within this context, both Turkish and English studies conducted during 2000-2014 were analyzed; 16 studies on achievement, 17 studies on anxiety and 30 studies on attitude from Turkey sample containing sample size, standard deviation and average values were included in the research. The studies containing the relevant data were analyzed with random effects model. As result of the study, effect size of gender differences for computer achievement, computer anxiety and computer-related attitude were found as 0.012, 0.237 and 0.114 respectively. The values obtained were evaluated according to the classification made by Thalheimer and Cook [30], it was detected that effect sizes regarding gender differences for computer achievement and computer-related attitude were negligible but effect sizes regarding gender differences for computer anxiety were small in favor of male individuals. Consequently, it was determined that there was no difference in computer achievement and computer-related attitude of male and female individuals and the anxiety levels of females are higher than the anxiety levels of males.

Psychometric properties of the Slovak version of the Professional quality of life scale: Preliminary results
Authors: Koverova Miroslava 
Published: December 2016

Stamm's (2010) model of professional quality of life distinguishes two aspects of working in helping professions: positive (compassion satisfaction) and negative (compassion fatigue consisting of burnout and secondary traumatic stress), which represent possible effects of helping on the lives of the helpers. Research on professional quality of life in Slovak settings is scarce, since no reliable and valid instrument measuring the concept is available. The objective of the research was therefore to examine the psychometric properties (internal consistency, convergent and discriminant validity) of the Slovak version of the Professional quality of life scale, which was translated from the original English version by Stamm (2009). Students of social work in external study form who worked in the field of social care and people working in helping professions (counselors, social workers) participated in the research and completed Professional quality of life scale, Life orientation test - revised, Emotional habitual subjective well-being scales, Rosenberg self-esteem scale, State-trait anxiety inventory and Beck depression inventory. It was hypothesized that higher level of compassion satisfaction would be linked with optimism, self-esteem, higher frequency of experiencing positive emotions (joy, happiness, pleasure, energy), lower frequency of experiencing negative emotions (anger, fear, sadness, shame, guilt, pain) and low levels of anxiety and depression. Compassion fatigue (burnout and secondary traumatic stress) was expected to be associated with pessimism, lower self-esteem, rare experiencing positive emotions, frequent experiencing negative emotions and higher levels of depression and anxiety. Description of the psychometric properties of the Slovak version of the Professional quality of life scale and the interpretation of the results are discussed in the paper.

Published: December 2016

The research into the educational effect of sport for youths aims at finding the ways for the coaches and parents to create a positive motivational environment for young athletes. Participation of family members in youth sports has a great effect on young athlete’s development and continuation of sports activities. In this background coaches have ample opportunities to influence parent–child relations and positive development of these relations. The coach can unite parents and children through sport, encourage their collaboration, act as a moderator, mediator, and counsellor. The article analyses the coaches’ influence on parent–child interaction in sports activities, as well as prerequisites for the effectiveness of such influence.The aim of the article is to reveal the coach’s role in encouraging parent–child interaction in sport activities. Objectives of literature review: 1) Analyse the factors of coaches’ role in encouraging parent–child interaction in sport activities; 2) reveal the importance of the coach’s competence for the stimulation of parent–child interaction in sport activities. Applied research methods: scientific literature analysis and generalization. Scientific literature analysis revealed the importance of the coaches’ role in encouraging parent–child interaction in sport activities in order to create a positive motivational environment for young athletes. A more or less positive training and education strategy used by the coach, the coach’s ability to create parental interest in the child’s sport, to build and maintain positive relationships between sport participants, solve ethical and social problems arising in the sporting environment have a significant influence on parent–child interaction. The effectiveness of the coach’s influence on parent–child interaction in the sporting environment largely depends on the coach’s basic professional skills and intrapersonal competencies acquired in higher sport education institutions, through growing work experience and various professional development programmes. In terms of methodological skills and intellectual proficiencies, the importance of metacognitive competency involving a coach’s reflection and the need for self–study is highlighted along with the importance and benefit of long–term educational programmes. Key–words: sports activities, educational interactions, parents, children, coaches, competences, sports coaching degree and certificate programmes.
Emotional commitment and organizational citizenship culture in healthcare facilities
Authors: Şengün Haluk 
Published: December 2016

Success in healthcare services can be achieved with the creation of an organizational culture, which can provide and sustain healthcare personnel, who have a high organizational commitment, and who internalize organizational citizenship behavior. Personnel, who have high organizational commitment, adopt the aims and values of the organization, of which they are a member. They put a lot of effort into the organization and have a greater desire to remain part of it. Organizational commitment can be defined as identifying oneself with the organization and its aims, and having the desire to remain part of it. Organizational citizenship behavior is the behavior of the personnel with regard to cooperation, sharing and their willingness to cooperate, in order to provide and maintain personnel and group and organizational composure. Organizational commitment and organizational citizenship concepts are closely related and precessor to each other. According to research, it is noted that emotional commitment has a strong positive relation with organizational citizenship behavior. Individuals with a high emotional commitment have better skills in coping with problems at their institutions; they internalize the problems of their institutions as personal matters and volunteer to create a solution. Contrary to this attachment, personnel, who do not feel an emotional commitment to their institutions, but maintain continuity secondary to different reasons, avoid facing problems and do not feel responsible for creating solutions. The vital importance of the service provided by healthcare personnel requires a high emotional commitment, as voluntary and loyalty emotions are at the forefront of emotional commitment. Lately, the cases of violence against healthcare personnel have greatly increased, and patient-physician relations are at a worse state than ever before. The need for personnel, who have an emotional commitment, who internalize the behavior of organizational citizenship and who contribute to their institutions, is higher than ever. Though, the healthcare personnel cannot expose this act secondary to the the deteriorating working conditions conditions and occurring adverse events. These conditions bring adverse results in the delivery of healthcare services. This research aims to draw attention to this problem, which is gradually worsening each day.Keywords: Organizational Commitment, Organizational Citizenship, Extra Role Behavior, Healthcare Personnel

Published: December 2016

The international academic cooperation between higher education institutions and the encouragement of academic mobility have become one of the priorities of Lithuania’s higher education policy, consistently with the European Bologna process and the Lithuania Progress Strategy 2030 approved by Lithuanian Government in 2012. Lithuanian higher education institutions encounter the challenge to promote student mobility with the aim to develop students’ cultural awareness, transferable competences and, most importantly, to strengthen students’ employability. The student mobility strategies, accordingly, have to emphasize the study quality as defined in the document Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area. As the official statistical data reveals quite steady growth in outgoing student numbers in Lithuania, the mobility rate is still insufficient. The paper aims to explore the empirical findings on the experiences of outgoing students with the focus on their intentions for educational mobility, their expectations, and the factors influencing their satisfaction with study quality. Methods: statistical analysis, descriptive and factor analysis using SPSS 19.0 version. The empirical findings highlighted that the majority of respondents are satisfied with their academic mobility in foreign countries. Teaching quality, career prospects, increased employability possibilities, learning – oriented environment and the organization of study process were listed as the main elements that effect students’ satisfaction on studies and internship. The analysis of statistical data and empirical study results implied the discussion on the challenges for Lithuanian higher education for promoting high quality student mobility. Keywords: mobility ; academic mobility ; students ; higher education institutions ; Lithuania.
Simmel's concept of culture
Authors: Kececi Eser , Kececi Gokce 
Published: December 2016

Culture is a Latin-origin word and derived from ‘cultura’. The word ‘cultura’ in Latin was then used for the meanings of to sow and get crops, produce. Before Turkish fell under the influence of Western languages, the word with Arab-origin ‘Hars’ was used instead of culture. After the Republic, rather than using ‘hars’, the word of culture was derived from the Western languages. The word ‘culture’ was widely started to be in use around Europe with the end of 18th century and beginning of 19thcentury. From the historical context of this word, it is described with relevantly complicated definition due to its different or similar uses for centuries. Thus, it has become difficult to make a single, scientific or appropriate definition concerning culture. Raymond Williams developed three wide and effective categories of use in order explain the development of word and complexity of its use. “(i)independent and abstract noun that describes a general process of intellectual, spiritual and aesthetic development from 18th century; (ii) whether used specifically or generally,… an independent noun that indicates a particular way of life, whether of a people, a period or humanity. But we also have to recognise (iii) the independent and abstract noun which describes the works and practices of intellectual and especially artistic activity” (Williams, 2005).When we look at the word of culture from the sociological aspect, it is reviewed in a more comprehensive way compared with its daily use. In general, culture is describes by the life styles and all actions of a society. Additionally, the concept of culture is explained together with society due to their close relation. The society constitutes the mutual relationship systems. The joint orientation of a society leads them to be under a common culture roof. Society cannot be without culture and vice versa. Both terms make each other exist. The members of society share cultural elements. Then these form the mutual contexts that individuals within a society live in. “The culture of a society is comprised by both non-material- beliefs, thought and values that compose the content of culture- and material elements- objects, signs or technology that represent this content”(Giddens, 2005,22). The concept of culture does not form itself from the nature. Culture is a human activity that is comprised by human activities. Culture is also an abstract concept that individuals form together but also when appropriate surrender to it. “Culture means to create and protect an order, fight with everything that disturbs the order and looks chaotic for the order. Culture is the act of putting or adding an artificial, manmade order in the place of “Order of nature” (i.e status of without no human interference” (Bauman, 2004).
