Analýza negativních aspektů životního stylu u studentek JU / Analysis of the negative aspects of the lifestyle of female students JU

PETRÁNOVÁ, Eva January 2015 (has links)
This master's thesis is focused on the negative life style aspects of the female students of the South Bohemian University and then on the influence of these aspects on the state of health. The theoretical part of the thesis includes the literary sources dealing with this issue and the practical part is based on the quantitative research that is the evaluation of at least 300 questionnaires having been filled in by the female students of all faculties of the South Bohemian University. The questionnaire consists of 35 items focused on the following spheres of a life style: physical activity, diet and water intake, sleep and relaxation, prevention, stress, sexual intercourse and drugs. The results of the questionnaire were evaluated by Excel SPSS and also by Pearson's chi square test. The aim of the thesis was also to compare the results with the results of the previous similar researches and to add a recommendation for students' better life style which presents the main contribution of this thesis. Namely, it was found out that the students' freshness depends on the number of hours they sleep during the night, then it was found out the dependence between the usual time of falling asleep and the students' freshness, the existence of the dependence between smoking and drinking of alcohol and the relation between the negative attitude to the physical activity and the reduced frequency of its doing. Another interesting finding was the fact that female students use less contraception than in the year 2010. The most stressing factor presents the university or studying, the food intake is increased by stressful time, they usually spend 3 or 4 hours with the internet, almost a half of them have ever been on a diet for the purpose of losing weight and 50 % of them are not satisfied with their weight.

Legitimation Strategies in the reporting of Negative CSR Aspects

Ayertey, Bliss, Asrat, Getnet Mengesha January 2017 (has links)
The survival of organizations is dependent upon their legitimacy since legitimacy provides them with access to valuable resources. Organizations do not possess legitimacy, but rather it is ascribed to them by the society they are in when their actions meet societal expectations. Fulfillment of these societal expectations requires the moral and practical obligations of organizations which we call Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). To show their CSR performance, organizations have increasingly adopted the practice of CSR reporting. In CSR reporting, organizations are expected by their stakeholders to disclose both positive and negative aspects. Although disclosing negative aspects can pose a threat to organization’s legitimacy, a third party reporting them may cause more severe damages to the legitimacy of the organization. Therefore, organizations are motivated to legitimize their negative aspects by using legitimation strategies. Using the typology of Coombs and Holladay (1996), in combination with the legitimation strategies by Hahn and Lülfs (2014) as our frameworks, and the non-financial reports of the top ten German chemical companies as our illustrative cases, we investigate and interpret the choice of legitimation strategies used by organizations to report different types of negative aspects in CSR reports. Our findings show that there is a clear pattern in the use of corrective action as a legitimation strategy for all types of negative aspects. Furthermore, we identified instances, where a new type of legitimation strategy, which we called shifting blame legitimation strategy was used. We interpreted our findings using analytical reasoning and theoretical framework such as the concept of symbolic and substantive approach to interpret our findings. Based on the findings, we concluded that the dominant pattern identified falls under the substantive approach, theoretically known for helping companies retain their legitimacy.

Pozitiva a negativa sociální práce u pacientů po poškození mozku z pohledu sociálního pracovníka / Positive and negative aspects of social work with patients after brain damage in terms of social worker

MANDÁTOVÁ, Kateřina January 2018 (has links)
The thesis is focused on the social work with people after brain damage and is part of the GAJU project called "Coordinated Rehabilitation of Patients after Brain Damage (Reg. No. GAJU 138/2016 / S)". Collaboration with social workers from the region of České Budějovice was part of this thesis. Their work also consists of working with people after brain damage. The purpose of the collaboration was to map out follow-up services after hospitalization of people after brain damage. Information about these organizations has been shared with the patients who were included in the GAJU project. The complex results of the project will be elaborated within the publishing activities. The diploma thesis is divided into two parts. The first - the theoretical part - is focused on the basic description of brain damage, there is more about the cerebral stroke, the coordinated rehabilitation team, the role of the social worker. There is also described the burden that the social worker as a person in the helping profession may face and burnout syndrome as a possible consequence of this burden. In the research part, the main objective was to find out what positives and negatives the social workers perceive in working with people after brain damage. This objective was completed through interviews with the social workers situated in České Budějovice. We can fully understand the extend of the social workers' work with people after brain damage thanks to the interviews. In connection with the goal, research questions have been identified: What are the positive and negative aspects of social work related to work with patient after brain damage according to the subjective opinion of a social worker? Another one: What influences the perception of positives and negatives which the social workers experience during their work? A qualitative research strategy was used, a technique of interviewing with use of instructions was chosen for the interviews with fourteen social workers of the organizations, whose target group also includes people after brain damage. Data was processed in Atlas.ti 7. The administration which is more and more demanding due to the legislation. That results in less time with client and more time with paperwork. Finance which is related to the funding of services, lack of resources for employee remuneration and the financial difficulty for clients. Lack of qualified staff, time consuming activities that are closely tied to the extensive administration and the fact that social workers often work beyond their job responsibilities and competencies. Non-cooperation of a client's family or lack of interest of family on the client, there is also the legislation, which is often in contradiction with practice according to interviews. The social workers have to follow the actual amendments of the law and that is time-consuming and exhausting, absence of follow-up organizations for patients after brain damage, lack of competencies/authority/information of social workers, insufficient motivation, lack of financial remuneration or lack of benefits for employees, conflicts with authorities, barriers that may occur during work of a social worker or insufficient resources. The analysis also reveals that social workers subjectively perceive these positives during their work with patients after brain damage: client satisfaction, helping people, the good feeling after job well done, positive feedback, fulfilling job, positive in relation to the work environment. The results of the thesis show that the positive aspects dominates over the negative ones. Work in a multidisciplinary team has been perceived positively amongst the social workers and beneficial for the clients and for the team. This work will serve as a sub-part for the elaboration of complex outcomes of coordinated rehabilitation of patients after brain damage from the GAJU project. Research results will become part of the publication outputs from the above-mentioned project.

Det agila arbetssättet : En organisatorisk trend eller ett framgångsrecept?

Karlsson, Sofia, Holmberg, Elna, Wallgren, Michaela January 2023 (has links)
Syfte: Studiens syfte är att öka förståelsen för de konsekvenser som uppkommer till följd avett agilt arbetssätt. Dessutom ämnar uppsatsen bidra med en mer balanserad bild av det agilaarbetssättets effekt. Metod: Studien behandlar fenomenet agilitet och har tagit utgångspunkt i en kvalitativ studiemed en induktiv forskningsansats. Studien har även tillämpat en flerfallstudie därsemistrukturerade intervjuer använts som datainsamlingsmetod. Slutsats: Studien visar att medarbetare har upplevt en frånvarande ledning vid den agilaimplementeringen och att de tar beslut som inte går i linje med det agila arbetssättet.Medarbetarna har upplevt att det funnits ett fokus på den praktiska omställningen framförskapandet av de kulturella förutsättningarna som krävs för att arbeta agilt. Vidare visarstudiens resultat att mellancheferna har upplevt att de behövt ändra ledarstil och släppa ifrånsig makt till medarbetare som i sin tur har upplevt ett ökat ägandeskap. De agila arbetssättetmedför negativa aspekter såsom att det Agila Manifestet övertolkas för att passa in på allaverksamhetsområden och att flera parallella arbetssätt uppstår och leder till förvirring blandmedarbetarna. Vidare kan det agila arbetssättet medföra en högre stressnivå, en ökadarbetsbelastning, ett överskott på mellanchefer och exkludering av vissa grupper. / Purpose: The purpose of this study is to increase the understanding of the consequences thatarise as a result of an agile way of working. In addition, the study aims to provide a morebalanced view of the impact of the agile way of working. Method: The study addresses the phenomenon of agility and is based on a qualitative studywith an inductive research approach. The study has applied a multiple case study wheresemi-structured interviews were used as the data collection method. Conclusion: The study shows that employees have experienced an absence of managementduring the agile implementation and that they make decisions that are not in line with theagile way of working. Employees have experienced that there has been a focus on thepractical transition rather than the creation of the cultural conditions required to work agile.Furthermore, the study results show that middle managers have experienced that they havehad to change their leadership style and transfer power to employees who in turn haveexperienced increased ownership. The agile way of working entails negative aspects such asthe Agile Manifesto being overinterpreted to fit in all areas of operation and several parallelways of working arise and lead to confusion among employees. Furthermore, the agileapproach can lead to higher stress levels, an increased workload, an excess of middlemanagers and the exclusion of certain groups.

Chiware, Zvemusi Josephine Matienga 11 1900 (has links)
The study investigated the perceptions of student nurses and supervisors with regard to the block system used in the general nurse diploma programme in Zimbabwe. Their perceptions were elicited so that the researcher could identify the positive and negative aspects of the blook system which respectively promote and inhibit or obstruct the teaching and learning of student nurses. The study was conducted at the Harare, Parirenyatwa, Mpilo and United Bulawayo Schools of Nursing and in Mashonaland East province. A cross·sectional descriptive survey research design was used to obtain accurate information about the block system. Data was collected from nurse teachers, clinical teachers and sisters in charge of wards/units by means of structured interviews and from community health nurses and student nurses by means of self-administered questionnaires. The following positive aspects of study blocks were identified: the availability of time for student nurses to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes without fear of hurting patients, the availability and willingness of nurse teachers to teach, the attendance of study blocks as groups and straight off duties. During clinical area placements, the integration of theory and practice took place, and there were opportunities for student nurses to apply the knowledge and skills they learnt during study blocks and to work as members of health teams. The negative aspects of the study blocks that were identified included too much theory content taught in each study block, inadequate demonstrations, a shortage of nurse teachers, no periods for individual study, a theory-practice gap and the too-frequent use of the formal lecture teaching method. The negative aspects of the clinical area placements included the inadequate teaching/supervision of student nurses, excessive night duties for student nurses, a shortage of qualified staff: clinical allocation of student nurses not based on study block content, inadequate clinical teaching by nurse teachers, and unplanned clinical teaching. Most clinical teaching was performed by peers and the most junior professional nurses. / Health Studies / D.Litt. et Phil. (Advanced Nursing Sciences)
