What causes depression in adults?
Authors: Bembnowska Marta , Jośko-Ochojska Jadwiga 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The problem of depression in adolescents is discussed increasingly more often. A lot of researchers devote their careers to investigating this subject. The issue becomes vital, since the number of young people with depressive symptoms is constantly on the rise. The diagnosis can be difficult, as many a time the changes so typical for the puberty period appear. They include mood swings, explosiveness, propulsion disorders, puissance, insomnia, concentration problems etc. These might be the first symptoms of depression as well. It is impossible to point to one cause of depression because it is a disease conditioned by many different factors, ranging from independent factors like genetic, biological, hormonal, through the influence of the family or the environment influence and socio-cultural components.
Early depression symptoms, long time exposure to stress, challenges or adversities - things every young person has to deal with - are a breeding ground for risky behaviors among adolescents. Teens are more likely to reach for different kinds of stimulants like alcohol, cigarettes or drugs etc. It has also been proven that anti-health behaviors may cause depression in the future
Environmental Management Systems (Ems) - Control Instrument of the Impact of the Organization Activities on the Environment
Authors: Duralia Oana 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Due to the ability to create and use technology, the human being has found various ways to transform the resources of the Earth in all sorts of new materials, equipment and energy sources. At least since the last industrial revolution until now, each generation has added more technology to the received legacy, but at the same time, left the planet in a far more degraded state than the inherited condition.
Within these changes, small and medium enterprises (SME) in their capacity as pillars of the economic development of a nation, have been compelled to change their previous strategies. Implementing an Environmental Management Systems (EMS) can be seen as the only way to connect the activities of the organization to the environmental requirements, in a context in which the orientation of the demand towards environmental markets is becoming increasingly apparent.
Arguments for Csr-Based Sustainable Competitiveness of Multinationals in Emerging Markets (Part II)
Authors: Claudia  , Herciu Mihaela 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The (two parts of the) paper aims to bring into discussion the case of CSR-based sustainable competitiveness of multinationals in emerging market economies, through an interdisciplinary approach (international business and strategic management) applied to a multilevel analysis (country and company). The main conclusion of the paper is that, despite the circumstances that nowadays characterize international business in general and the emerging market economies in particular, such a transformation in business models is not only desirable, but mandatory. Key arguments in favor of this assumption are found (both theoretically and empirically) at global/general level and, as well, at the emerging market economies’ level.
Accounting for Investement Property Under Romanian Accounting System
Authors: Sava Raluca 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
Investment property, an important component of the current assets, need special attention both in terms of their impact on accounting and well as in reporting the annual financial statements. Internationally their accounting treatment is presented by the IAS 40 Investment property issued in 2000 and being operative for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2001 with a number of subsequent amendments.First step in aligning the Romanian accounting system (RAS) to the international accounting and financial reporting standards has manifested in terms of properties starting with 2012 but only for the listed companies - OMFP 1286 which has brought significant changes in the execution way of the individual financial statements of these companies and in terms of the accounting presentation of the investment properties and fixed assets held for sale. In accordance with this order and the Romanian accounting rules recognize investment properties as being a separate component of the fixed assets, applying the provisions of IAS 40.This paper deals with the next step by presenting the occurred legislative changes related to the accounting treatment of the investment property, changes that are applicable to all the Romanian companies, not just those listed on the stock exchange, starting from the financial year 2015.
The Influence of Marketing Communication on the Consumer’s Buyer Behavior – A Relationship Marketing Approach
Authors: Tichindelean Mihai 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to identify the nature of the influence of a company’s marketing communication of the actual consumer behaviour. To achieve this purpose, the paper is structures in two parts; firstly, the recent literature regarding relationship marketing paradigm is reviewed and the value chain concept is presented. The second part contains a survey-based research which uses book-store customers as target unit. Sales promotion and advertising are used as input variables in identifying the variation in the client’s buying behaviour. Client behaviour was measured through three variables: monetary value spent by the clients within their last purchasing experience, buying frequency of the clients, and their buying intention.

Abstract
Challenges generated by the global economic crisis, terrorism, epidemics, wich therefore directly affected global tourism industry, raised the global question to approach the tourism in a new vision, more complex. Thus, WTO and the World Travel & Tourism Council considered that this will be important condition for the reception destinations and local communities development. The new tourism ventures to include a new dimension of travel and tourism, as a mature response to a world more complicated. Global awareness of the importance of tourism has triggered a new vision on the opportunities offered by global tourism. T
This article provides information on the latest statistics on tourism in the European Union (EU). The tourism is an important sector due to its economic potential, employment of labor and its social and environmental implications. Tourism statistics are used to monitor not only EU policies in tourism but also regional policy and sustainable development policy. The role of tourism, for both business and citizens, has grown considerably in recent decades. According to the estimates of DG Enterprise and Industry of the European Commission, tourism accounts for over 5% of the EU-27 GDP. Tourist accommodation sector provides 2.3 million jobs in the EU-27 and the total number of jobs in the entire tourism sector in the EU-27 is estimated to be between 12 and 14 million people (according to preliminary estimates of tourism satellite accounts).
Caribbean Spanish = Brazilian Portuguese? Some comparative thoughts on the loss ofpro-drop
Authors: Pöll Bernhard 
Published: August 2015

AbstractThe present contribution compares Caribbean Spanish (CS), especially the Dominican variant (DS), and Brazilian Portuguese (BP). These dialects, which show several similarities with respect to the loss ofpro-drop(and related grammatical features), are described in a framework based on Toribio (1996, 2000): both in CS/DS and in BP the inflectional head seems to partly have lost not only its capacity of identifying the contents of a null pronoun, but also the possibility to assign nominative Case in a rightward direction. Speakers of BP have replaced the morphology-based identification mechanism by a special kind of antecedent identification, and it is argued that their competence is expanded by a “grammatical bolt-on” along the lines of Rowlett (2013). The situation in DS is much more complex due to the fact that null subjects are still possible in virtually all contexts where General Spanish has them. Although antecedent identification is a plausible mechanism (attested in other languages, for instance Icelandic and Russian), there is no conclusive evidence that it is at work in DS. Furthermore, and in contrast to BP, contact with, and exposure to, an educated variety of the language can hardly be made responsible for the actual variation in DS, with the exception of the use ofelloas an overt expletive, which is disfavoured by more educated, urban speakers.The paper discusses also alternative proposals to the “competing grammars model” (cf. Toribio 2000) for DS, especially Holmberg et al.’s (2009) explanation for the partial null subject status of BP and other languages. Apart from exhibiting theoretical problems, it fails to do justice to the actual language variation in BP and is incompatible with the DS data. On the other hand, Sessarego and Gutiérrez-Rexach’s (in press) model for Chinchano Spanish (an Afro-Hispanic dialect spoken in Peru), which is based on the idea that input consisting of variable L2 outputs is responsible for variation in L1, may be promising, if similar acquisition processes can be established to have taken place in the dialects under scrutiny. For the moment, however, there is still some mystery about the partialpro-dropnature of CS/DS.
Features of Portuguese as a heritage language: Morphosyntax and beyond
Authors: Silva Gláucia 
Published: August 2015

AbstractThis paper reviews findings about linguistic features of Portuguese as a heritage language (PHL) in contact with English and German. The paper reviews some of the issues that have been uncovered in relation to morphosyntatic and sociopragmatic knowledge among heritage speakers of European and Brazilian Portuguese. The paper also discusses a few possible directions for future research in PHL that might shed light on morphosyntactic issues and on whether certain features illustrate examples of attrition or incomplete acquisition.
Risk Management in Future Romanian E-Government 2.0 Projects
Authors: Didraga Otniel 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
E-government public services in Romania must follow unitary procedures considering the new requirements of the European Union from the Digital Agenda for Europe Strategy 2020. E-government 2.0 has to be implemented because of the cultural and behavioral transformations in the interaction between governments and users of e-services. E-government 2.0 projects use tools and techniques of social media to accomplish their goals. This article examines the possible risk categories and the risk management procedures needed to mitigate risks in future Romanian e-government projects, according to the strategic lines of development for the Digital Agenda. We propose a risk management plan for the e-government lines of action within the strategic lines of development that includes identifying, assessing, and mitigating the risks. New and modernized government services through e-government 2.0 projects that apply risk management will bring a significant improvement in how citizens and businesses relate to government and will increase the use of e-government services.
Choosing Subsamples for Sequencing Studies by Minimizing the Average Distance to the Closest Leaf
Authors: Kang Jonathan T L , Zhang Peng , Zöllner Sebastian , Rosenberg Noah A 
Published: August 2015

AbstractImputation of genotypes in a study sample can make use of sequenced or densely genotyped external reference panels consisting of individuals that are not from the study sample. It also can employ internal reference panels, incorporating a subset of individuals from the study sample itself. Internal panels offer an advantage over external panels because they can reduce imputation errors arising from genetic dissimilarity between a population of interest and a second, distinct population from which the external reference panel has been constructed. As the cost of next-generation sequencing decreases, internal reference panel selection is becoming increasingly feasible. However, it is not clear how best to select individuals to include in such panels. We introduce a new method for selecting an internal reference panel—minimizing the average distance to the closest leaf (ADCL)—and compare its performance relative to an earlier algorithm: maximizing phylogenetic diversity (PD). Employing both simulated data and sequences from the 1000 Genomes Project, we show that ADCL provides a significant improvement in imputation accuracy, especially for imputation of sites with low-frequency alleles. This improvement in imputation accuracy is robust to changes in reference panel size, marker density, and length of the imputation target region.
Improving Pneumococcal Vaccination in Pediatric Rheumatology Patients
Authors: Harris Julia G. , Maletta Kristyn I. , Ren Bixiang , Olson Judyann C. 
Published: August 2015

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:
Many pediatric rheumatology patients are at increased risk of pneumococcal disease secondary to a deficient immune system and/or immunosuppressive medications. The goal of this study was to improve pneumococcal vaccination rates in this high-risk population.

METHODS:
Eligible patients included children at least 2 years old and adults with systemic lupus erythematosus and/or currently on immunosuppressive medication. Interventions included a presentation to rheumatology providers, creation of immunization algorithm, previsit planning, placing reminders on clinic forms, and sending reminder e-mails to providers. Chart reviews were performed, and control charts were established to portray change in immunization rates.

RESULTS:
The preintervention immunization rates for 90 patient visits compared with the immunization rates for the 53-week postintervention period with 1033 patient visits and 299 separate patients were all statistically significant. The 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine rate increased from 6.7% to 48.4% (χ2 = 58.3, P &lt; .001), 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine rate increased from 8.9% to 28.4% (χ2 = 16.0, P &lt; .001), and combined rate increased from 0% to 23.2% (χ2 = 25.2, P &lt; .001). The improvement was sustained with shifts in the data for each vaccine and combined immunizations for final average rates of 60.9% for 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, 39.2% for 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine, and 33.7% for combined.

CONCLUSIONS:
Pneumococcal vaccination is an important part of the care for systemic lupus erythematosus patients and patients on immunosuppressive medications. Simple interventions through this quality improvement project led to a marked increase in pneumococcal vaccination rates in this vulnerable population.
Parent/Adolescent Weight Status Concordance and Parent Feeding Practices
Authors: Berge Jerica M. , Meyer Craig S. , Loth Katie , MacLehose Richard , Neumark-Sztainer Dianne 
Published: August 2015

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have examined the independent influence of mother’s weight status or child’s weight status on parents’ use of specific feeding practices (ie, food restriction, pressure-to-eat). However, studies have not examined the mutual influence of parents’ and adolescents’ weight status on parents’ feeding practices. This study examines the relationship between parent and adolescent weight status concordance and discordance and parent feeding practices.METHODS:Data from 2 linked population-based studies, Eating and Activity in Teens (EAT) 2010 and Families and Eating and Activity in Teens (F-EAT), were used for cross-sectional analysis. Parents (n = 3252; 63% female; mean age 42.6 years) and adolescents (n = 2153; 54% female; mean age 14.4 years) were socioeconomically and racially/ethnically diverse. Anthropometric assessments and surveys were completed at school by adolescents, and surveys were completed at home by parents.RESULTS:Parents used the highest levels of pressure-to-eat feeding practices when parents and adolescents were both nonoverweight compared with all other combinations of concordant and discordant parent/adolescent weight status categories. Additionally, parents used the highest levels of food restriction when parents and adolescents were both overweight/obese compared with all other combinations of concordant and discordant parent/adolescent weight status categories. Sensitivity analyses with 2-parent households revealed similar patterns.CONCLUSIONS:Results suggest that parents use feeding practices in response to both their adolescents’ and their own weight status. Results may inform health care providers and public health interventionists about which parent/adolescent dyads are at highest risk for experiencing food restriction or pressure-to-eat parent feeding practices in the home environment and whom to target in interventions.
Preterm Birth and Poor Fetal Growth as Risk Factors of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Authors: Sucksdorff Minna , Lehtonen Liisa , Chudal Roshan , Suominen Auli , Joelsson Petteri , Gissler Mika , Sourander Andre 
Published: August 2015

BACKGROUND:
Previous studies have shown an association between prematurity and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Results concerning late preterm infants are controversial, and studies examining fetal growth represented by weight for gestational age are scarce. Our objective was to examine the association between gestational age by each week of fetal maturity, weight for gestational age, and ADHD.

METHODS:
In this population-based study, 10 321 patients with ADHD, diagnosed according to the International Classification of Diseases and 38 355 controls individually matched for gender, date and place of birth, were identified from Finnish nationwide registers. Perinatal data were obtained from the Finnish Medical Birth Register. Conditional logistic regression was used to examine the association between gestational age, weight for gestational age, and ADHD after controlling for confounding factors.

RESULTS:
The risk of ADHD increased by each declining week of gestation. The associations were robust after adjusting for confounders. An elevated risk also was seen among late preterm and early term infants. As for fetal growth, the odds ratio showed a U-shaped curve with an increased risk seen when the weight for gestational age was 1 SD below and 2 SD above the mean.

CONCLUSIONS:
Our findings suggest that each gestational week has significance for child’s subsequent neurodevelopment and risk for ADHD. We also showed that poor fetal growth increased the risk of ADHD. This highlights the importance of taking into account both prematurity and poor fetal growth when planning the timing of birth as well as later follow-up and support policies.
Ecos de Berlim: a influência do nacional-socialismo alemão no fascismo espanhol (1930-1940)
Authors: Seixas Xosé M. Núñez 
Published: August 2015

O artigo analisa a influência do nacional-socialismo alemão sobre o movimento fascista espanhol durante a sua primeira fase, ainda durante a guerra civil e primeira pós-guerra. Além do fascínio pela figura de Hitler, os fascistas espanhóis admiravam a modernidade da propaganda e agitação nazista. A admiração era partilhada pela direita católica. Ainda que o antissemitismo biológico constituísse um problema, todos consideravam Hitler como a defesa mais eficaz perante a “expansão bolchevique”.
A Voz de S. Tomé: romper com a modorra vincando o cinzentismo? (1947-1974)
Authors: Nascimento Augusto 
Published: August 2015

O jornal A Voz de S. Tomé surgiu após a II Guerra, mais precisamente em 1947. Nascido da pulsão para a propaganda da obra feita, sujeito a censura, redigido por curiosos, o monolítico A Voz de S. Tomé tornou-se o único periódico onde, além de pálidos reflexos da vida local, se estampava uma propaganda cinzenta do regime e da metrópole colonizadora. De permeio, o jornal fornecia uma leitura do mundo a ser adoptada pelos ilhéus e pelos colonos. Não será muito arriscado supor que, na prática, A Voz de S. Tomé servia para perpetuar o isolamento. Neste texto sobre o jornal A Voz de S. Tomé (1947-1974) apresentar-se-ão contributos quer para a compreensão dos condicionalismos políticos sobre a imprensa, quer para a caracterização do seu papel na configuração do espaço público num território micro-insular, colonizado e sujeito a uma ditadura. Em 1970, as ilhas teriam 73.631 habitantes, dos quais 2.391 brancos. Após 1975, condicionalismos políticos similares pesaram na senda do novel país.
