A Study of the Reasons for the Salary Differential Between Professional Staff Members at the University of Utah and Utah State UniversityVolb, Terrance R. 01 May 1968 (has links)
Salary differentials by rank were studied at the University of Utah and Utah State University on a departmental basis.
Multiple regression equations were developed from criteria at Utah State University which were used to predict individual salaries for professional staff members at the University of Utah. Thirteen of the fourteen multiple regression equations developed showed statistical significance at the .05 level and twelve departments were significant at the .01 level.
Salary comparisons by rank were considerably reduced as a result of the department by department analysis.

Party or Party Group? : A Qualitative Interview Study of the Voting Behavior of Swedish Membersof the European ParliamentRoslund, Ditte January 2021 (has links)
One fundamental condition for a democracy to work is the possibility for voters to hold their legislators to account. Because voter turnout in European Parliament (EP) elections is so low, however, the task of holding MEPs accountable is passed on to the national parties. These become ‘transmission belts’ between voters and legislators: they instruct the MEPs how to vote and present them threats and rewards to ensure they vote as promised. To study how well this works, this thesis aims at exploring what influences how an MEP votes in situations where the national party and the European Party Group (EPG) hold conflicting policy positions. A new analytical framework is built to generate and preliminarily test hypotheses concerning what influences how an MEP votes. The analytical framework is largely inspired by Strøm (1990), who assumes that legislators are driven by their wishes of getting policy through, reaching high office and being re-elected. Normally, these goals can be reached with the help of the legislator’s party, which is why legislators have an incentive to keep their party happy and vote according to its policy position. In the EP, however, things are complicated by the fact that certain goals can only be reached with the help of legislators’ EPGs. Hypotheses concerning what may drive MEPs to vote either with her national party or with her EPG are tested in the thesis with the help of unique interview data, collected from five Swedish MEPs from parties in government. The thesis’ results show that policy-related incentives are most important to MEPs, and that these incentives are mainly controlled by EPGs. Office- and re-election-related incentives are only ascribed limited importance. There are contextual factors that affect these results: if an issue is perceived as important to Sweden or to the national party or if it receives high media attention, MEPs ascribe less importance to EPG-controlled incentives, although this does not mean that national party-controlled incentives increase in importance. In conclusion, MEPs do not seem to feel pressured by their national parties when deciding how to vote. This leads me to the conclusion that the role of national parties as ‘transmission belts’ between voters and MEPs is defective

Building transformative school-community collaboration : a critical paradigmKim, Jangmin 18 January 2017 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / School-community collaboration has received increasing attention in social work
because of its potential for enhancing the quality of services to meet the multifaceted
needs of students. However, there is little understanding of how to create and maintain
successful school-community collaboration. The purpose of this research is to develop
and validate a comprehensive framework for transformative school-community
collaboration based on a critical paradigm and its corresponding theories. Using school
survey data, an exploratory factor analysis identified the four dimensions of
transformative school community collaboration, including (1) critical member capacity,
(2) equal relations, (3) democratic network governance, and (4) empowering coordination.
The results of multiple regression analyses showed that the identified dimensions were
positively associated with the quality outcomes of Out-of-School Time programs
although their significant effects varied across different quality outcomes: high-quality
activities, student engagement, and linkages with family/community. Another key finding
was that structural dimensions—democratic network governance and empowering
coordination—appeared to be stronger factors. However, this research suggested that
critical member capacity and equal relations may be associated indirectly with the quality
outcomes. This dissertation paper concludes with practical implications and future
research agenda to successfully build transformative school-community collaboration.

LEADER-MEMBER EXCHANGE, DYADIC DEMOGRAPHIC FACTORS AND SUBORDINATES’ TURNOVER INTENT IN REHABILITATION AGENCIESGere, Bryan Oweilayefa 01 May 2016 (has links) (PDF)
This study examined the relationship between subordinates perception of the quality of leader-member exchange (LMX) relationship, dyadic demographic factors and turnover intent in rehabilitation agencies. The sample consisted of 152 direct care employees that work with individuals with disabilities at rehabilitation organizations in the state of Illinois. In particular, the focus was on determining the best fit model that predicts turnover intent among quality of LMX, dyadic age, gender, educational level, ethnicity and duration and their two-way interactions with LMX. Participants were asked to complete the team Leader-Member Exchange scale (LMX-SLX), Turnover Intent Scale (TIS) and a demographic questionnaire. Results of the regression analysis showed that LMX significantly predicted turnover intent, β = -.272, t=-3.298, Sig. F Change = .001. None (dyadic educational level, β = -.146; dyadic ethnicity, β = .068; dyadic gender, β = .100; dyadic duration, β = -.076) of the demographic factors except dyadic age, significantly predicted turnover intent (Sig. F Change = .112). Dyadic age, β = .258, t= 2.502, p= .014 was a significant predictor, although the overall model was not significant. All (dyadic educational level_LMX, β = -.60; dyadic ethnicity_LMX, β = .037; dyadic gender_LMX, β = -.130; dyadic age_LMX, β = .071; dyadic duration_LMX, β = .071), of the interactions significantly predicted turnover intent, although the overall model was not significant. In addition, implications, limitations and delimitation, and recommendations for future research are discussed.

Povinnosti člena statutárního orgánu kapitálové společnosti v hospodářských potížích / Duties of a member of governing body of a limited company in financial difficultiesLangr, Filip January 2020 (has links)
Duties of a member of governing body of a limited company in financial difficulties Abstract This thesis discusses duties of a member of governing body of a limited company in financial difficulties, specifically chosen institutes not only from corporate law but from insolvency law as well. The main goal of this thesis is to define period of financial difficulties and to create a basic overview of legal duties that are connected to this period. When analysing individual duties, where I take into consideration conclusions from specialised literature and from decisions of the courts, I focus on problematic parts of the enacted law. The thesis proposes de lege ferenda propositions and also reflects on the amendment to the Business Corporations Act. The thesis is divided into four chapters. The first chapter deals with the due managerial care and diligence. It is the key duty, which is imposed on the members of governing body of a limited company. In the second chapter I discuss the state of financial trouble of the company. The Czech lawmaker tries to reflect on this economical state by the institutes of insolvency and impending insolvency, which I focus on within this part. These institutes are linked to a number of legal duties. Chapters three and four constitute the core of the thesis. Chapter three...
