description: The first measurements of the Fourier coefficients ($V_{n\Delta}$) of the azimuthal distributions of charged hadrons emitted from photon-proton ($\gamma$p) interactions are presented. The data are extracted from 68.8 nb$^{-1}$ of ultra-peripheral proton-lead (pPb) collisions at $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}$ = 8.16 TeV using the CMS detector. The high energy lead ions produce a flux of photons that can interact with the oncoming proton. This $\gamma$p system provides a set of unique initial conditions with multiplicity lower than in photon-lead collisions but comparable to recent electron-positron and electron-proton data. The $V_{n\Delta}$ coefficients are presented in ranges of event multiplicity and transverse momentum ($p_\mathrm{T}$) and are compared to corresponding hadronic minimum bias pPb results. For a given multiplicity range, the mean $p_\mathrm{T}$ of charged particles is smaller in $\gamma$p than in pPb collisions. For both the $\gamma$p and pPb samples, $V_{1\Delta}$ is negative, $V_{2\Delta}$ is positive, and $V_{3\Delta}$ consistent with 0. For each multiplicity and $p_\mathrm{T}$ range, $V_{2\Delta}$ is larger for $\gamma$p events. The $\gamma$p data are consistent with model predictions that have no collective effects thus suggesting the absence of collectivity in the $\gamma$p system over the multiplicity range explored in this work.

description: Background: Repeated induced abortion is important public health concern both in the developing and developed world that increases maternal morbidity and mortality. There is a no of research towards the magnitude and associated factors of repeat induced abortion in developing countries particularly in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Objectives: The objectives of this study was to determine the magnitude and associated factors of repeated induced abortion among abortion care service seekers at Mare Stopes International Ethiopia (MSIE) clinics in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted on 429 women seeking abortion care at Marie stopes international Ethiopia clinics. Simple random sampling technique was used to selectstudy participants. Data were collected by trained data collectors at one of Marie stopes international clinics by 22 mothers using structured questionnaires after that done the necessary correction. Data were checked for completeness, consistency, coded and entered and analyzed through SPSS version 20.Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was computed to test the strength of association and the p-value <0.05 was considered as statistical significant. Result:The magnitude of repeat induced abortion is 33.6 %. Based on this study educational status of college diploma and above (AOR=9.2, 95%CI; 2.3-35.3), monthly income of ETB 1001-2000(AOR=3.7; CI: 1.7-7.8), and years in marriage of 2-5 years (AOR=3.3; 95%CI: 1.6- 6.7) and of 5-10 years (AOR=2.6; 95% CI: 1.3-4.9)last abortion time of 1-2years (AOR=0.4;95%CI:0.2-97) and above three years last time abortion (AOR=0.35; 95%CI:0.13- 0.9) significantly associated with the repeat induced abortion among reproductive age group of women at Maries topes international Ethiopia clinics in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Conclusion and recommendation: The finding of this study showed that the magnitude of repeat induced abortion is similar with the reports from developing countries but it was lower than that of developed countries. Higher educationallevels, monthly income, years in marriage and time of last abortion were the associated factors for repeat induced abortion. Health promotion messages are needed to focus to improve the knowledge of women about contraceptives as a primary prevention of repeated induced abortion.

description: Environmental fluctuations have important consequences in the organization of ecological communities, and understanding how such a variability influences the biodiversity of an ecosystem is a major question in ecology. In this paper, we analyze the case of two species competing for the resources within the framework of the neutral theory in the presence of environmental noise, devoting special attention on how such a variability modulates species fitness. The environment is dichotomous and stochastically alternates between periods favoring one of the species while disfavoring the other one, preserving neutrality on the long term. We study two different scenarios: in the first one species fitness varies linearly with the environment, and in the second one the effective fitness is re-scaled by the total fitness of the individuals competing for the same resource. We find that, in the former case environmental fluctuations always reduce the time of species coexistence, whereas such a time can be enhanced or reduced in the latter case, depending on the correlation time of the environment. This phenomenon can be understood as a direct consequence of Chesson's storage effect.

description: A search is reported for pairs of light Higgs bosons (H$_1$) produced in supersymmetric cascade decays in final states with small missing transverse momentum. A data set of LHC pp collisions collected with the CMS detector at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$ is used. The search targets events where both H$_1$ bosons decay into $\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$ pairs that are reconstructed as large-radius jets using substructure techniques. No evidence is found for an excess of events beyond the background expectations of the standard model (SM). Results from the search are interpreted in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric extension of the SM, where a 'singlino' of small mass leads to squark and gluino cascade decays that can predominantly end in a highly Lorentz-boosted singlet-like H$_1$ and a singlino-like neutralino of small transverse momentum. Upper limits are set on the product of the squark or gluino pair production cross section and the square of the $\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$ branching fraction of the H$_1$ in a benchmark model containing almost mass-degenerate gluinos and light-flavour squarks. Under the assumption of an SM-like H$_1\to\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$ branching fraction, H$_1$ bosons with masses in the range 40-120 GeV arising from the decays of squarks or gluinos with a mass of 1200 to 2500 GeV are excluded at 95% confidence level.

description: The first measurement of the azimuthal angular correlations of exclusively produced events with two jets in photon-lead interactions at large momentum transfer is presented. Theoretical predictions relate such correlations to the polarization of gluons within nuclei. This study uses a data sample of lead-lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.38 nb$^{-1}$, collected with the CMS experiment. One of the jets is required to have a transverse momentum above 30 GeV, while that of the second is greater than 20 GeV. The measured second harmonic of the correlation between the sum and difference of the two jet momenta is found to be positive, and rising, as the dijet momentum increases. The model representing the state-of-the-art calculations in electromagnetic interactions with protons overestimates this angular correlation. The measurement is also compared to a recent theoretical calculation that includes final state interactions.

description: In diesem Beitrag wird der internationale Stand der (vorwiegend psychologischen) Forschung zu den individuellen und sozialen Auswirkungen von organisationalen Personalreduktionen (genannt 'Downsizing') auf die Verbleibenden (genannt 'Survivors') dargestellt. Die fast ausschließlich angelsächsische Forschung kommt zum Ergebnis, dass die mit dem Personalabbau angezielten ökonomischen Gewinne (Bsp. tiefere Kosten) und organisationalen Ziele (erhöhte Produktivität) sehr oft nicht erreicht werden. Eine Erklärung dafür sind die negativen emotionalen, einstellungs- und verhaltensmässigen Reaktionen der Survivors. Besondere Rolle kommt der Verschiebung und Auflösung des psychologischen Kontrakts , der impliziten Übereinkunft zwischen Unternehmen und Arbeitnehmenden, zu. Arbeitsplatzunsicherheit und damit verbundene motivationale Verluste an Commitment und Engagement sowie gesundheitliche Folgen sind in Rechnung zu stellen, ebenso die Rolle des mittleren Managements und damit zusammenhängende Status- und Karriereprobleme. Der Beitrag versteht sich als Anregung für die notwendige theoretische und empirische Forschung, die im deutschsprachigen Raum erst in Ansätzen existiert.
description: This article is a review of the international (mainly psychological) research of the individual and social effects of organisational staff reduction (Downsizing) on the remaining employees (Survivors). The conclusion of the mostly English speaking countries is that the financial and organisational objectives (e.g. lowering costs and rising productivity) that firms expect from Downsizing are often not achieved. An explanation for this result is that Downsizing evokes negative emotional, cognitive or behavioural responses among Survivors. The change of the implicit psychological contract between employers and employees is regarded central for these negative responses. Further workplace insecurity, motivational losses regarding commitment and engagement, changes in health status as well as changes in position and career paths of middle management have to be considered. These findings suggest that more theoretical and empirical research is necessary - especially in German speaking countries.

description: The purpose of this paper was to analyze the concept of green banking and ESG factors. For this purpose, a specific case study was studied, that of Piraeus Bank. The methodology adopted was that of the theoretical approach of the bibliographic review of secondary qualitative and quantitative data related to the research object of the paper. As it turned out, the role of green banking and ESG factors is crucial to the transition to a green economy and ensuring the viability of investments in large-scale environmentally friendly projects. To this end, banks around the world have begun to adapt their products and services to green banking. Among these banks is Piraeus Bank, which since 2004 has proceeded with a series of initiatives, actions and collaborations aimed at its smooth transition to green and responsible banking that have contributed to a great extent among others to the development of a “rich” green portfolio.

description: Im Fokus des Übertritts in die Primarstufe stehen in der Regel Kriterien, welche ein Kind am Ende der Kindergartenzeit erreicht haben soll. In dieser Arbeit wird der umgekehrten Frage nachgegangen, und zwar welche Kriterien für eine sinnvolle Rückstellung in ein drittes Kindergartenjahr sprechen. Der Grund dafür ist, dass die Schulfähigkeitskriterien nicht einheitlich festgelegt sind und diese Problematik in näherer Zukunft nicht gelöst werden kann. Daher macht es Sinn die Thematik von einem anderen Ansatzpunkt her anzugehen. Zu diesem Zweck werden aus verschiedenen Büchern und Schulfähigkeitstests sowie den Antworten einer Umfrage Merkmale herausgesucht, welche für eine Rückstellung sprechen. Dabei werden alle gefundenen Merkmale in einem auf der ICF basierendem Analyseraster zusammengetragen und auf ihre Auftretenshäufigkeit hin ausgewertet. Herausgearbeitet wird eine Kriterienliste, welche in der Praxis als Entscheidungshilfe dienen kann.

description: Mit der Flexibilisierung von Arbeitsverhältnissen verändern sich auch die psychologischen Kontrakte, d.h. die wechselseitigen Angebote und Erwartungen von Arbeitgebenden und Arbeitnehmenden. Parallel dazu wird vermehrt auch individuell der Wunsch nach mehr Flexibilität im Berufsalltag oder in der beruflichen Laufbahn geäussert. In der vorliegenden auf qualitativen Interviews beruhenden Studie wird die Veränderung der psychologischen Kontrakte in Unternehmen wie auch bei Personen, die ihren Beruf gewechselt haben, untersucht. Letztere wurden zudem zu ihrer persönlichen Identität befragt. Die Interviewdaten wurden mit der Methode der qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet. Es kann gezeigt werden, dass die Veränderung psychologischer Kontrakte von einer konservativen bis hin zu einer drastischen Ausprägung variiert. In den persönlichen Biographien behält der Beruf zwar noch eine dominierende Stellung, die befragten Personen planen ihre berufliche Entwicklung jedoch unter Berücksichtigung vielfältiger Optionen und integrieren deren Wechselhaftigkeit in die eigene Identitätsdefinition. Als Konsequenz daraus wird empfohlen, Personen darin zu unterstützen, Sicherheit in den eigenen Kompetenzen statt in Betriebs- oder Berufszugehörigkeit zu suchen.
description: In the context of workplace flexibility psychological contracts i.e. reciprocal obligations between employers and employees are changing. People increasingly request more flexibility regarding their employment or their career. In this study the change of psychological contracts experienced in companies as well as by people, who changed their profession, was examined with semi-structured interviews. The latter were interviewed with regard to their personal identity as well. The interview data were analysed with the method of qualitative contents analysis. Evidence is given that the change of psychological contracts varies from a conservative to a drastical version. Personal biographies are still dominated by the profession. The interviewees, however, plan their professional development considering various options and integrate the many changes within their life in their own definition of identity. Recommendations are given in order to support individuals to find security in their own competencies instead of identifying with a company or a profession.

Determinants of Occupational Injury among the condominium house construction workers of Addis Ababa city, Ethiopia. Unmatched case control study
Creators: name: Shine, Sisay
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2013

description: Back ground of the study: Occupational injuries constitute global public health burden from which millions of workers die each year from unintentional work related accidents causing economic loss. The construction industry has been identified as one of the hazardous industries in Ethiopia; a significant number of people are working in the industry. Objective of the study: To assess factors of Occupational Injury among the condominium house construction workers of Addis Ababa city, Ethiopia. Methods: Institution based unmatched case control study design was done to assess the determinant of occupational injury among the condominium house construction workers in Addis Ababa city. Five large scale condominium house construction site was selected based on the number of worker (n>250) and number of condom unit (>=2500) constructed. Sample of 576 study participants were included in the study by one to two cases to control ratio (192 cases and 384 controls). Study subjects were selected using simple random sampling technique. Data collection was made by using pre-tested questionnaire. Work environment observation was held to strengthen the information with quantitative findings of environmental determinants. EPI INFO 3.5.1 version computer software package was used for editing, cleaning, coding, and check completeness and consistency of data. Variables with 95% confidence interval and P value at <0.2 during the bivariate analysis were included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis to see the effect of confounding variables. Result: Socio demographic and most environmental factors had no association on the occurrence occupational injury among the condominium house construction workers only health and safety information access had association; some behavioral factor such as use of personal protective equipment (AOR [95%Cl] = 2.24 [1.26, 3.93]), sleep disturbance (AOR [95%Cl] = 8.67 [5.30, 14.20]), workers who were unsatisfied by their work (AOR [95%Cl] = 2.14 [1.26, 3.93]), smoking cigarette (AOR [95%Cl] = 2.38 [1.45, 3.89]), and drank alcohol (AOR [95%Cl] = 2.15 [1.38, 3.34]) were significantly associated with the occurrence of occupational injury. Most environmental health and safety matters such as warning sign, ladders inspected, portable circular saws were equipped with protective guards, unsafe handling of material prohibited by supervisors were not fulfilled with in all construction site. Conclusion and recommendation: Behavioral factors sleep disturbance, not satisfying by work, alcohol consumption, smoking cigarette, not using personal protective equipment increase the risk of occupational injury. Safety training of workers and continuous monitoring of working site can play an important role in reducing occupational injury. Key word: occupational injury; socio demographic, environmental, and behavioral factors; condominium house worker.

description: We study the effects of a low concentration of adatoms or single vacancies in the linear-response transport properties of otherwise clean graphene. These impurities were treated as localized orbitals, and for each type two cases with distinct coupling symmetries were studied. For adatoms, we considered top- and hollow-site adsorbates (TOP and HS). For vacancies, we studied impurity formation by soft bond reconstruction (REC), as well as the more symmetric case of charge accumulation in unreconstructed vacancies (VAC). Our results indicate that the transport is determined by usual impurity scattering when the graphene-impurity coupling does not possess $C_{3v}$ symmetry (TOP and REC). In contrast, VAC impurities decouple from the electronic states at the Dirac points, and yield no contribution to the resistivity for a sample in charge neutrality. Furthermore, the inversion-symmetry-conserving HS impurities also decouple from entire sets of momenta throughout the Brillouin zone, and do not contribute to the resistivity within a broad range of parameters. These behaviors are protected by $C_{3v}$ and inversion symmetry, respectively, and persist for more general impurity models.

Παρακολουθήθηκε η διαδρομή του από την επαρχία της Φλώρινας και της Έδεσσας, όπου ο νεαρός και φιλομαθής Θαλής κατάφερε γρήγορα να διακριθεί και να εδραιωθεί στην πολιτισμική και επιστημονική ζωή της τοπικής κοινότητας, μέχρι τη συγγραφική του απομόνωση από τους λογοτεχνικούς κύκλους, που τον οδήγησε στο σκοτεινό περιθώριο της φιλολογικής κριτικής. Στο επίκεντρο του ερευνητικού ενδιαφέροντος βρέθηκαν η παρουσίαση ενός όσο το δυνατό πληρέστερου βιογραφικού, εργογραφικού και βιβλιογραφικού πορτρέτου, η ερμηνευτική και κριτική αποτίμηση του άνισου, αλλά όχι χωρίς αξία, ποιητικού του λόγου, η αποθησαύριση και παρουσίαση των δημοσιεύσεών του στον Τύπο και τέλος η σύσταση των εντύπων που ίδρυσε, εστιάζοντας κυρίως στη συνεισφορά των Νέων Φύλλων (1937) στην εδραίωση του υπερρεαλιστικού κινήματος.
description: The aim of this thesis is to illustrate the life and work of the litterateur, musician, journalist, literary and music critic with studies in philosophy and medicine, Thalis Ritoridis (1916-1983), whose multifaceted talent did not earn him widespread acclaim, although he engaged actively in literary, political, corporative and diplomatic endeavors. A portrayal of his life journey from the provinces of Florina and Edessa, where the young, inquiring Thalis successfully managed to become well-respected within the local community, up to his isolation from the literary circles that eventually leaded to his marginalization— has been attempted. This research is mainly interested in offering a comprehensive account of Ritoridis’s biography and literary work as well as a thorough appraisal of his less acknowledged, yet significant, poetic writing. An extensive compilation of his released work to the press, along with the printed publications that he scheduled, placing emphasis on the contribution of “Nea Filla” (1937) to the consolidation of the surrealist movement in Greece, is also presented.

description: Let $\mathcal{X}$ be an ordinary (projective, geometrically irreducible, nonsingular) algebraic curve of genus $\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X}) \ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ of odd characteristic $p$. Let $Aut(\mathcal{X})$ be the group of all automorphisms of $\mathcal{X}$ which fix $\mathbb{K}$ element-wise. For any solvable subgroup $G$ of $Aut(\mathcal{X})$ we prove that $|G|\leq 34 (\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X})+1)^{3/2}$. There are known curves attaining this bound up to the constant $34$. For $p$ odd, our result improves the classical Nakajima bound $|G|\leq 84(\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X})-1)\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X})$, and, for solvable groups $G$, the Gunby-Smith-Yuan bound $|G|\leq 6(\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X})^2+12\sqrt{21}\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X})^{3/2})$ where $\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X})>cp^2$ for some positive constant $c$.

Does Distributing Pamphlet Make a Difference in Knowledge and Attitude towards VCT among High School Students?
Creators: name: Kebebew, Tolcha
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2007

description: In order to attain change in knowledge, attitude and behaviour, the community should have access to adequate and factual health information. In Ethiopia, most of the health institutions develop one or more of printed health education materials, majority of which are pamphlets and posters on HIV/AIDS. Although such materials are being distributed, the level of their effectiveness in changing knowledge, attitude and behaviour of the target population is not established in the local context. The objective of this thesis research was to develop and test the effectiveness of a VCT pamphlet in changing knowledge and attitude of high school students towards VCT in North Shoa Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia. A Randomized Controlled Trial was conducted to test the effectiveness of a VCT pamphlet in changing knowledge and attitude of high school students towards VCT. The intervention and control groups were selected randomly from the two high schools found in North Shoa. Single blinding was employed to avoid the Hawthorn effect. The VCT pamphlet was given only to the intervention group. The pre-and post-intervention knowledge and attitude of students towards VCT were assessed by the use of structured and pre-tested self-administered questionnaire. The distribution of change in knowledge and attitude were computed. There was a significant difference in change in knowledge between intervention and control groups (t = -9.12, df = 720, p< 0.01), i.e. it was significantly high among the intervention group. On the other hand, change in attitude was not significantly different among intervention and control groups, even though there was an increase in attitude towards VCT. The change in knowledge was significantly associated with some sociodemographic, sexual partner number, stigma and discriminatory attitude, and baseline knowledge and attitude towards PLWHA (p< 0.05). The study shows that it is possible to change the knowledge of the target group through distributing pamphlets, and perhaps not the attitude. It is recommended to consider different factors such as socio-demographic, knowledge and attitude level of the audience before preparation and distribution of pamphlets to attain the intended change

description: This thesis investigates the role of leadership behaviours of C-level executives in the context of post-M&A integration processes. The primary focus is on understanding the impact of specific leadership behaviours on inspiring desirable follower effects and facilitating emotional acceptance during organizational change. Drawing on the frameworks presented in “Six- Dimension Integrative Model of Leadership” and "The Six Domains of Leadership" developed by Sitkin et al., the study conducts expert interviews with managers from middle management who have recently experienced M&A integration. The answers are analysed in depth to identify the most effective leadership behaviours, highlighting those mentioned most frequently and those capable of triggering multiple follower effects simultaneously. The result is a list of behaviours that can serve as a guideline for C-level executives who want to foster desirable follower effects throughout the M&A integration journey.

description: Measurements of normalized differential cross-sections of top quark pair ($t\bar t$) production are presented as a function of the mass, the transverse momentum and the rapidity of the $t\bar t$ system in proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV and 8 TeV. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb$^{-1}$ at 7 TeV and 20.2 fb$^{-1}$ at 8 TeV, recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events with top quark pair signatures are selected in the dilepton final state, requiring exactly two charged leptons and at least two jets with at least one of the jets identified as likely to contain a $b$-hadron. The measured distributions are corrected for detector effects and selection efficiency to cross-sections at the parton level. The differential cross-sections are compared with different Monte Carlo generators and theoretical calculations of $t\bar t$ production. The results are consistent with the majority of predictions in a wide kinematic range.

description: We investigate the topological properties of unquenched $QCD$ on the basis of numerical results of simulations at fixed topological charge, recently reported by Borsanyi et al.. We demonstrate that their results for the mean value of the chiral condensate at fixed topological charge are inconsistent with the analytical prediction of the large volume expansion around the saddle point, and argue that the most plausible explanation for the failure of the saddle point expansion is a vacuum energy density $θ$-independent at high temperatures, but surprisingly not too high $(T\sim 2T_c)$, a result which would imply a vanishing topological susceptibility, and the absence of all physical effects of the $U(1)$ axial anomaly at these temperatures. We also show that under a general assumption concerning the high temperature phase of $QCD$, where the $SU(N_f)_A$ symmetry is restored, the analytical prediction for the chiral condensate at fixed topological charge is in very good agreement with the numerical results of Borsanyi et al., all effects of the axial anomaly should disappear, the topological susceptibility and all the $θ$-derivatives of the vacuum energy density vanish and the theory becomes $θ$-independent at any $T>T_c$ in the infinite volume limit.

description: In einem Elektronenbeschleuniger werden Hochfrequenz-Hohlraumresonatoren zur Beschleunigung der Elektronen und zum Ausgleich des Energieverlustes der Elektronen durch Abstrahlung von Synchrotronstrahlung verwendet. Die höheren Moden dieser Resonatoren können den Elektronenstrahl zu unerwünschten kollektiven Oszillationen (Coupled-Bunch Moden) anregen und ihn so in eine Instabilität treiben. In dieser Arbeit wird der Einfluss verschiedener zur Beschleunigung von Elektronen verwendeter Hohlraumresonatoren auf das Stabilitätsverhalten des Teilchenstrahl im Speicherring Delta untersucht. Die Experimente fanden bei verschiedenen Teilchenenergien und Strahlströmen des Beschleunigers mit zwei unterschiedlichen in den Beschleuniger eingebauten Resonatoren statt, wobei der Teilchenstrahl auf durch höhere Resonatormoden induzierte Strahloszillation vermessen wurde. Weiterhin wurde der Einfluss der Füllstruktur des Strahls auf das Anregungsspektrum der Coupled-Bunch Moden untersucht. Zusammenhänge der gemessenen Spektren sowohl mit Resonatormoden, als auch mit der Füllstruktur konnten nachgewiesen werden.

description: Background - Equity is the absence of avoidable or remediable differences among populations or groups defined socially, economically, demographically or geographically. The Ethiopia Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH) has formulated and implemented various effective polices and strategies to the benefit of the nation's citizens. Inequity often manifests as a large and growing gap between the best-off and worst-off people in urban areas. Objective–The objective of this study was to assess equity on outpatient health services utilization in selected health centers of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Methodology–A facility based cross sectional study design was conducted in selected health centers of Addis Ababa. A stratified sampling technique with proportional allocation of sample size was used by considering the sub-city as a group and then a total of 10 health centers were assessed. Study participants were selected by systematic random sampling. A total of 466 sample size was determined. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data. Data was entered into Epi data version 3.1 and was exported to Stata/SE 14.0 and SPSS version 20. Illness report in Health service utilization and expenditure survey 2017 constituted the reference population. The result was summarized by using tables and charts. Wealth index was built by principal component analysis. Chi-squared goodness test was used to test the significant difference between the socio demographic variables of outpatient visitors with individuals reported illness in the survey. Results–A total of 457 participated in the study with response rate of 98.07%. Mean age of respondents was 34.5 ranging from 0.8 – 81 years. There were 296 (64.8%) female and 161 (35.2%) male respondents. To assess equity, data of OPD visitors of the study sample were 8 compared with individuals reported illness in health service utilization and expenditure survey 2017. There were significant differences in the proportion of male and female populations' [χ2 (1, n = 457) = 211.917, (p < 0.000)], educational statuses [χ2 (3, n = 457) = 297.2, (p < 0.000)], employment statuses [χ2 (2, n = 457) = 642.4, (p < 0.000)] and wealth statuses [χ2 (1, n = 457) = 10.46, (p < 0.033)] identified in the current sample as compared with the values that was obtained in the survey. Conclusions and recommendations - Findings in this study showed being male, having primary education, being employed and having lowest and 4thwealth status contributed to inequity in outpatient service utilization. But further analysis is required that incorporate different health facilities at different level of care across regions and residences.

description: Der Fachkräftemangel stellt ein weit verbreitetes und zunehmendes Problem dar, das alle Wirtschaftsbereiche betrifft. Besonders in technischen Berufen gestaltet sich die Rekrutierung qualifizierter Mitarbeitenden als äußerst herausfordernd. Es wird immer deutlicher, dass es nicht ausreicht, lediglich Mitarbeiter:innen anzuwerben; vielmehr ist es von entscheidender Bedeutung, sie gezielt zu Fachkräften auszubilden. Trainee-Programme bieten eine Möglichkeit, diese Entwicklung zu fördern. Die vorliegende Masterarbeit widmet sich den Gestaltungselementen von Trainee- Programmen und bietet einen umfassenden Überblick über Definitionen, Methoden und Ausbildungselemente innerhalb dieser Programme. Diese Arbeit konzentriert sich auf die Identifikation kritischer Erfolgsfaktoren technischer Trainee-Programme, indem sowohl in der qualitativen Forschung untersucht wird, inwiefern Vorarlberger Industrieunternehmen diese Gestaltungselemente in ihren bereits implementierten technischen Trainee-Programmen berücksichtigen und welche Erfahrungswerte bisher gesammelt wurden, als auch in der quantitativen Forschung speziell technische Hochschülerinnen und -studenten als Zielgruppe herangezogen werden. Die Ergebnisse dieser Forschungsarbeit liefern wertvolle Erkenntnisse und praxisorientierte Handlungsempfehlungen für Unternehmen bei der Gestaltung ihrer Trainee-Programme. Besonders betont wird die Bedeutung der individuellen Anpassung an die Bedürfnisse und Interessen der potenziellen Trainees, einschließlich ihrer fachlichen Schwerpunkte, Karriereziele und Lernpräferenzen. Mentoring, Networking und interne Zusammenarbeit werden als wichtige Elemente für eine umfassende Entwicklung der Trainees innerhalb des Programms hervorgehoben. Darüber hinaus wird empfohlen, ein flexibles Framework einzusetzen, das Standards und Richtlinien für die Trainee-Programme festlegt, aber gleichzeitig Raum für Anpassungen und individuelle Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten bietet. Diese Masterarbeit trägt dazu bei, das Verständnis für die Gestaltungselemente von Trainee- Programmen zu vertiefen und liefert wertvolle Erkenntnisse für Unternehmen in Vorarlberg und darüber hinaus. Durch die Ergänzung des Phasenmodells der Trainee-Programme mit den Ergebnissen der qualitativen und quantitativen Forschung werden praxisnah e Empfehlungen abgeleitet, um Trainee-Programme attraktiver zu gestalten. Dadurch wird eine gezielte Entwicklung von Fachkräften im Unternehmen ermöglicht und eine langfristige Bindung an das Unternehmen gefördert.

description: Back ground: Infant feeding practice is one of the challenging issues on prevention of MTCT of HIV particularly in developing countries due to the benefits and risks of replacement and exclusive breast feeding practice. Breast feeding by an infected mother increases the risk of transmission and provision of ARV prophylaxis for both mothers and her exposed infant with recommended infant feeding practice for HIV positive mothers reduces MTCT of HIV. Objective: To assess the infant feeding practices of HIV Positive mothers receiving ARV/ART and HIV status of their infants with its determinants in South and North Wollo Zone. Methods: Institution based cross sectional study with both quantitative and qualitative methods was conducted among 373 HIV positive mothers with their exposed infants. The study subjects were drawn from 21 health institutions in South and North Wollo Zone in the order of their arrival starting from January to April 2012 till the sample size was fulfilled. Quantitative data were collected using pre-tested structured questionnaire where as qualitative data were obtained from selected HIV positive mothers through in-depth interview with semi-structured interview guide. Results: The prevalence of HIV among infants was 7.8% with the following feeding practice Exclusive replacement feeding (ERF), exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) and mixed feeding (MF) were13.4 %, 74.8 %, and 11.8% respectively. The predictors for HIV status of infants were infant illness [AOR=7.23, 95%CI =(2.64, 19.78)], maternal illness [AOR=4.61, 95% CI=(1.52, 13.96)], maternal knowledge on PMTCT [AOR = 3.35, 95%CI = (1.22, 9.15)], place of delivery [AOR =5.00, 95%CI = (1.45, 17.17)], mode of delivery [AOR=5.20, 95%CI = (1.60, 16.95)] and, infant feeding practice with exclusive breast feeding [AOR=0.23, 95%CI=(0.08, 0.68)] . Conclusions: In this study HIV status of the infant was determined by infant feeding practice, maternal and infant illness, and mother's knowledge on PMTCT. Educating mothers focusing on PMTCT, early seeking of treatment during their illness and behavioral change on infant feeding practice with proper ARV/ART service are important interventions for PMTCT of HIV
