Nemocniční kaplan: právní zakotvení a přehled vývoje duchovní péče a nemocničního kaplanství v České republice / Hospital Chaplains: Legal Code and Summary of Pastoral Care and Hospital Chaplain Service in the Czech Republic

Kopecká, Simona January 2015 (has links)
Hospital Chaplains: Legal Code and Summary of Pastoral Care and Hospital Chaplain Service in the Czech Republic. The aim of this dissertation is to summarize the legal basis and the development of the pastoral care and hospital chaplain service in the Czech Republic. The author describes legal changes, laws and documents concerning the relation between churches, religious communities and the state after the year 1948, and the huge change in this relationship after the year 1989 - the Velvet Revolution and the fall of the communist government - when the legal code started to reflect the democratic principles which enabled the churches and religious communities to fulfill their mission in the field of pastoral and spiritual care. This thesis also includes a summary of the process of defining what a hospital chaplain should be, including his position at the hospital, qualification requirements and the ethical code. One chapter focuses onto associations helping and assisting hospital chaplains, and their function at public relations. The final chapter reflects the opportunities of further education for chaplains in hospitals including special courses at faculties of theology.

The Balanced Scorecard: A Look at Financial & Non-Financial Measures

Fujieki, Patrick B 01 January 2014 (has links)
This paper introduces Robert Kaplan’s model of the balanced scorecard and the financial and non-financial measures that make up the model. It looks into the effectiveness of using both financial and non-financial measures to help measure the performance of a company. Once done with that, I look at possible areas of deficiencies within the balanced scorecard. The main purpose of this paper is to discover shortcomings of the balanced scorecard and attempt to find solutions to those problems, and by doing so helping others looking to implement a balanced scorecard of their own. This study does find shortcomings in the balanced scorecard that may bother some companies and it does introduce possible solutions to those problems. More specifically, the issues of the balanced scorecard are cost and time, the amount of people involved with the implementation of the system, too much emphasis being placed on internal processes, and the levels of importance that should be placed on each perspective of the balanced scorecard.

No. of bitstreams: 1 2012_tese_rmsmota.pdf: 6131750 bytes, checksum: cb9fb63c55db61f8c6b8276aaa755008 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012 / The estimators for population parameters in samples collected by sampling Respondent Driven Sampling (RDS) are sensitive to the presence of observations ignored and tends to underestimate the population parameters. The absence of a clearly defined sampling frame for the collection of samples from populations considered hidden and/or difficult access made the RDS became an important tool for biological and behavioral surveillance in these populations at higher risk for HIV, especially Brazil. Considered a method of sampling in the reference chain, RDS uses information about the connections of social networks for specific asymptotically unbiased estimators of population characteristics and accuracy of these estimators. Multicenter cross-sectional epidemiological and behavioral surveillance for MSM populations in 18 years or more was conducted in 10 cities (Manaus, Recife, Salvador, Campo Grande, Brasilia, Curitiba, Itajaí, Santos, Belo Horizonte and Rio de Janeiro) in 2009 and collected in each municipality, a sample through RDS. This study offered the rapid test for diagnosis of HIV infection to those who agreed to participate in a pre-counseling. All participants were asked about testing for HIV prior to the research and about which the diagnosis obtained. By simulating a dichotomous variable (eg, HIV serology positive or negative) without comment ignored in recruiting network in Rio de Janeiro and later recruited 18 deletions, that is, the unknown sample is evaluated from a number of observations significantly smaller than the original sample and the parameter in question (HIV prevalence) is underestimated. Still, with the allocation of single serology ignored in the descriptive context, it is observed in samples with attribution, biological markers indicating that more accurate values. Multicentre study for the group of participants who self-reported positive or negative serology for HIV rapid test and performed the research notes to self-reports, high correlation (0.88) and 100% sensitivity with gold standard rapid test for HIV diagnosis. Finally, estimating the prevalence of HIV in the samples observed by county and general, and the proposed allocation of the self-reported HIV positive and HIV serology subsequent assignment of + / - through three proposed charges: are all negative, proximity of the participants in the network recruitment and by logistic regression. It is found in samples collected from the estimated overall HIV prevalence was equal to 11.1%, by municipality, the lower prevalence in Santos (2.6%) and highest in Rio de Janeiro (17.6%).With the charges tend to increase the prevalence and the highest estimates are found with the imputation logistic regression in 7 of 9 municipalities assessed by this methodology. The estimated overall HIV logistic regression is 14.2% and, by municipality, the lower prevalence in Recife (5.2%) and highest in Brasilia (23.7%). The allocation of serology for HIV by the Logistic Regression occurs by municipality and by a model with a minimum accuracy of 70%. / Os estimadores para parâmetros populacionais em amostras coletadas pelo método de amostragem Respondent Driven Sampling (RDS) são sensíveis à presença de observações ignoradas e tendem a subestimar os parâmetros populacionais. A ausência de um quadro de amostragem bem definido para a coleta de amostras em populações consideradas escondidas e/ou de acesso difícil fez com que o RDS se tornasse uma importante ferramenta de vigilância comportamental e biológica nessas populações com maior risco para o HIV, em especial no Brasil. Considerado um método de amostragem em cadeia de referência, o RDS utiliza informações sobre as conexões das redes sociais para obter estimadores contingentes assintoticamente imparciais das características populacionais e a precisão desses estimadores. Estudo multicêntrico de corte transversal para vigilância epidemiológica e comportamental em populações de HSH com 18 anos ou mais foi realizado em dez cidades brasileiras (Manaus, Recife, Salvador, Campo Grande, Brasília, Curitiba, Itajaí, Santos, Belo Horizonte e Rio de Janeiro) no ano de 2009 e, coleta, em cada município, uma amostra pelo RDS. Neste estudo, foi oferecido o teste rápido para diagnóstico da infecção por HIV àqueles que aceitam participar de um pré-aconselhamento. Todos os participantes foram inquiridos sobre a realização de testes anti-HIV anteriores ao da pesquisa e sobre qual o diagnóstico obtido. Com a simulação de uma variável dicotômica (exemplo: sorologia para HIV positiva ou negativa) sem observações ignoradas na rede de recrutamento do Rio de Janeiro e posteriores exclusões de 18 recrutados, encontra-se que, a amostra com ignorados é avaliada com base em um número de observações significativamente menor que o da amostra original e o parâmetro em questão (prevalência do HIV) é subestimado. Ainda, com a imputação única das sorologias ignoradas, no contexto descritivo, observam-se, nas amostras com imputação, marcadores biológicos que indicam valores mais acurados. No estudo multicêntrico, para o grupo de participantes que autorrelatou sorologia positiva ou negativa para o HIV e realizou teste rápido na pesquisa, observa-se para os autorrelatos elevada concordância (0,88) e sensibilidade de 100% com o padrão-ouro teste rápido para diagnóstico do HIV. Finalmente, estimando a prevalência para o HIV nas amostras observadas por município e geral, e, com a proposta da imputação pelo autorrelato do HIV positivo e posterior atribuição de sorologia HIV +/- mediante três propostas de imputações: todos são negativos, proximidade dos participantes na rede de recrutamento e pela regressão logística. Encontra-se nas amostras coletadas a estimativa geral da prevalência do HIV igual a 11,1% sendo, por município, a menor prevalência em Santos (2,6%) e a maior no Rio de Janeiro (17,6%). Com as imputações as prevalências tendem a aumentar e as maiores estimativas são encontradas com a imputação por meio da regressão logística em sete de nove municípios avaliados por essa metodologia. A estimativa geral do HIV pela regressão logística é 14,2% sendo, por município, a menor prevalência no Recife (5,2%) e a maior em Brasília (23,7%). A imputação da sorologia de infecção por HIV pela regressão logística ocorre por município e por intermédio de um modelo com acurácia mínima igual a 70%.

Estimation de la loi de la durée de séjour en présence d'une censure post-évènement d'intérêt. : Application à la croissance des fruits du cacaoyer et modélisation du risque d'attaque par la pourriture brune au Cameroun / Estimation of the lifetime distribution in presence of a censorship that can be observed after the interest event. : Application to the growth of the cocoa fruit and modeling of its risk of attack by Pod rot in Cameroon

Takam Soh, Patrice 13 December 2011 (has links)
Nous nous sommes intéressés dans cette étude à l'estimation de la loi de la durée de séjour en prenant en compte les individus sur lesquels l'évènement d'intérêt et la censure peuvent se produire dans un même intervalle et être observés. Pour cela, nous avons proposé deux approches d'estimation non paramétrique basées sur une approximation asymptotique quand la longueur de l'intervalle entre deux dates consécutives d'observation tend vers 0. La première est basée sur une relation intégrale et la deuxième est basée sur une restauration des durées de séjour. Nous nous sommes servis de ces approches pour monter un modèle de croissance des fruits du cacaoyer en fonction du climat. Nous avons également estimé la sensibilité (probabilité de pénétration et de réussite d'infection) des fruits en fonction de leur stade et le potentiel infectieux (nombre moyen de spores sur un fruit) par date. Ce potentiel infectieux nous permettrait de monter un modèle du potentiel infectieux en fonction des fruits attaqués. La connaissance du potentiel infectieux en fonction des fruits attaqués, de l'estimation de la sensibilité suivant les stades, de l'estimation du modèle de croissance permettra alors de monter un modèle dynamique du potentiel infectieux pour prédire le risque d'évolution de la pourriture brune des fruits du cacaoyer / We are interested in this study in estimating the lifetime distribution by taking into consideration individuals on which the interest event and the censorship can occur in the same intervaland both events were then observed. We proposed two nonparametric approaches based on an asymptotic approximation when the lengthbetween two consecutive observation days tends to 0. The first one was based on an integral relationship and the second one on a lifetime restoration. We used theses approaches to build a fruitgrowth model depending on climatic variables. We also estimated the susceptibility (success probability of attack by a spore on a fruit) of the fruit depending of its developmental stage and theinfectious potential of the disease over time.This infectious potential could help to build a model of infectious potential depending on infected fruits. The knowledge of the infectious potential depending on infected fruits, the estimation of the susceptibility of the fruit and the model of growth will allow to built a dynamic model of infectious potential to predict the evolution risk of disease progression

En ny form av terrorism? : En kritisk analys av Jeffrey Kaplans femte våg modell

Freyholtz, Gunnar January 2016 (has links)
In this essay I examine and criticize Jeffrey Kaplans fifth wave theory of terrorism, the theory is an addition and through the elaboration of professor David C. Rapoports classic Fourth wave theory. I have chosen to do that   by comparing al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula and the Islamic State using their corresponding magazines Inspire and Dabiq. The goal of this exercise is to prove that what we experience with the Islamic State is not the beginning of a new wave of terrorism as Kaplan call it, but a state in making. Kaplans fifth wave gives us a good method to analyze terror organizations in between the state of organization and state but fails to live up to a new wave of terrorism. I therefore argue that what we are seeing for the movement is not the birth of a fifth wave, but rather a new development of a fourth.
