Cognitive processes in teams have been a valuable arena for team researchers to explore. Team cognition research advances and informs a variety of disciplines, including cognitive and social ...sciences, engineering, military science, organizational science, human factors, medicine, and communications. There has been a great deal of progress in the team cognition literature, yet the field is still in its early stages of maturity. There is much more to be gained from the field's insights and there is a need to unite the diverse array of scholarly ideas that permeate the field. This movement will serve to organize the research and ideas that have surfaced in the field, thereby making them more accessible to different disciplines while at the same time, motivating continued progress in the field. This book aims to be a step in this direction and acts as a forum for leading scholars to share their ideas, theories, models, and conceptions about what matters and where more attention is needed in the field of team cognition.
A qualitative, mixed and partly covert research of the locally specific characteristics of deinstitutionalisation was carried out in Slovenia in 2015. The research showed that more than 20,000 adults ...with different disabilities still live in different long stay institutions and that there are not sufficient NGOs that would support community-based living. Deinstitutionalisation is viewed as a change for the worse and is therefore reduced to minor transformations of the existent long stay institutions, described in the study. The state worries that deinstitutionalisation would demand a more costly welfare system and the relatives of disabled people worry that deinstitutionalisation will increase privatisation of welfare and that the burden of care will fall on them, as is the case in many other post-socialist countries. Within the locally specific context of post-socialism, deinstitutionalisation needs to be a top-down social policy decision that will influence professional education in different areas of care work and will provide a re-training of the existing staff. The experiences of people who survived long stay institutions or still live in them need to become public knowledge, as learning from the lived experience might make the process of deinstitutionalisation more vibrant, efficient and useful for everyone. The study captured some of their experiences.
This article analyses the case of Slovenia, a post-socialist state with a notable history of state social interventions and institutionalised care. Nowadays, however, flexibilisation rules the labour ...market, and activation is the primary social policy measure, according to which benefits become conditioned upon inclusion into paid labour, and the state only intervenes in cases of severe poverty. In recent years, alongside changes in social policy, the state has introduced measures against illicit work, including work in private households. The demand for care work is growing, while it is increasingly being relegated to the private domain. Drawing on interviews with informal care workers, we delineate methodological concerns related to conducting qualitative research, arguing that the individualisation of care work has brought increased state control and, in consequence, fear among and marginalisation of care workers. Introducing the concept of chains of trust, the article concludes that the structural effect of the individualisation of care is seclusion behind the four walls of private households, where trust becomes the only currency.
Pediatrična endokrinologija je začela s svojim neodvisnim razvojem zgodaj v splošnem razvoju te specilanosti, z izrazitim poudarkom na raziskovalnemu delu in klinični odličnosti. Slovenska ...pediatrična endokrinologija je bila že od začetkov evropske pediatrične endokrinologije njen sestavni del, še posebej kot soustanoviteljica prve mednarodne skupine ‘International Study Group for Diabetes in Children and Adolescents’. Po pionirskem delu prof. dr. Leva Matajca je prof. dr. Ciril Kržišnik KO za endokrinologijo, diabetes in bolezni presnove Pediatrične klinike v Ljubljani trdno vpel v mednarodno znanstveno skupnost. V zadnjem desetletju KO sodeluje pri vrhunskem raziskovalnem delu in zagotavlja klinično oskrbo po najvišjih mednarodnih standardih.
Ovaj rad mimove posmatra u dijalogu sa umetničkim delima. U njima traži i pronalazi „klasična/tradicionalna” dela „standardne/analogne” istorije umetnosti, odnosno, dela odabrana iz njenog ...ustanovljenog kanona. U toj potrazi i analizi, rad definiše poziciju „visoke umetnosti” i njenog značenja u haotičnom okruženju kakvo stvaraju alatke Web 3.0. Sa druge strane, kroz jedan uporedni pristup, rad mapira raznolike uticaje mim kulture na stvaranje savremenih crteža i slika, na osnovu nekoliko odabranih primera po pravilu ‘algoritam kulture’, na regionalnom i internacionalnom nivou. Kroz takvu analizu, rad predstavlja ogled u razmišljanju o „umetnosti mimova” i „mimovanja umetnosti”, odnosno nudi pogled na savremenu poziciju internet mima u istoriji umetnosti, i obratno, na poziciju istorije umetnosti u popularnoj kulturi mima.
V prispevku se posvečamo študiji primera diplomatsko-migracijske izkušnje diplomata v bilateralni diplomaciji, pri čemer je naš namen preveriti, ali obstajajo med diplomati in migranti stične točke, ...zaradi katerih bi lahko diplomate razumeli tudi kot migrante. Nadalje skušamo pokazati, da je poklicno gibanje diplomatov specifična oblika migracije in ne zgolj poklicne mobilnosti. Analiza izhaja iz rezultatov raziskave na populaciji slovenskih diplomatov ter je nadgrajena z osebno izkušnjo slovenskega diplomata, opazovana v treh različnih okoljih izvajanja bilateralne diplomacije. Metodološka posebnost prispevka je, da je sogovornik – diplomat ne le primer preučevanja, ampak tudi akter analize in interpretacije.
A practical introduction to qualitative research across fields and disciplines Qualitative Research in Practice offers a hands-on introduction to qualitative research design, methods, data, and ...analysis. Designed as a companion text for any course involving qualitative research, this book explores the different types of qualitative studies with relevant examples and analysis by the researchers themselves. The workbook format makes it easy to use in the classroom or the field, and the depth of information makes it a valuable resource for students of social work, psychology, counseling, management, education, health care, or any field in which qualitative research is conducted. While quantitative research is primarily concerned with numerical data, qualitative research methods are more flexible, responsive, and open to contextual information. To a qualitative researcher, a situation is defined by the participants' perspectives, making it the primary method of inquiry for understanding social phenomena through the lens of experience. This book introduces the essentials of qualitative research, bolstered by expert analysis and discussion that provides deeper insight than a traditional textbook format would allow. * Understand the fundamental nature of qualitative research * Learn how to accurately assess and evaluate qualitative research * Explore qualitative research's many forms and applications * Gain insight on qualitative research in a variety of fields and disciplines How does one codify an experience? Is it possible to measure emotion in units? Qualitative research fills the void where numbers cannot reach. It is the best tool we have for studying the unquantifiable aspects of the human experience, and it is an essential tool in a wide variety of fields. Qualitative Research in Practice provides translatable skills in a practical format to quicken your transition from "learning" to "using."
A handbook for managing psychosocial risks and absenteeism with e-OPSA tool' is an integral part of the new, freely available tool aimed at management of psychosocial risks and health-related ...absenteeism (e-OPSA~www.opsa.si). The general version e-OPSA is intended for employees in various sectors (education, training, manufacturing, ICT, trade, catering, transport, construction, agriculture, etc.). Besides introducing the problem of psychosocial burdens experienced by employees at their workplace and beyond, this handbook can be used as a useful instrument for designing a various promotional and preventive arrangements which bettering employees’ health and well-being in their working settings, as suggested by recent guidelines for psychosocial risks management. A handbook is based on interactive chapters, including also numerous links to supportive health promotion websites in order to facilitate the preparation of adequate measures and related activities, commonly carried out by professionals in the field of health and safety at work. A special chapter is dedicated to instructions for working with an online tool e-OPSA tool, enabling an assessment of employees’ psychosocial burdens and risks of developing an excessive stress, absenteeism, presenteeism, turnover and experiencing of workplace violence.
