Ansiktsigenkänning : Holistisk och analytisk bearbetning vid ansiktsigenkänning av den egna etniska gruppen jämfört med andra etniska grupper / Ethnic bias in face recognition : are own-race faces processed more holistically?

Persson, Matilda January 2010 (has links)
Abstract (Svenska) Den här undersökningen försöker ta reda på om orsaken till att människor bättre minns ansikten av sin egen etnicitet än ansikten med annan etnisk bakgrund ligger i mer holistisk än analytisk inkodning. Det testades även om kända och okända ansikten inkodas holistiskt eller analytiskt. Sammanlagt 51 personer deltog i undersökningen. Hälften av stimulusmaterialet var ljushyade (amerikaner av europeiskt ursprung) och hälften var mörkhyade (amerikaner av afrikanskt ursprung). 1/3 av stimulusmaterialet var bilder av mörka och ljusa kända personer. Uppgiften var att försöka känna igen bilderna då de visades på nytt med en förvrängning som skulle gynna antingen holistisk eller analytisk bearbetning. Resultaten visade att kända ansikten inkodades bättre än okända, och att skillnaden var större för holistisk än analytisk bearbetning. Skillnaden mellan ljusa och mörka ansikten gick i samma riktning, men var inte signifikant. / Abstract (English) The purpose of this study was to examine if the reason for Own Race Bias (ORB) – The fact that humans remember faces of their own ethnicity better than faces with another ethnic background/history – lies in the encoding mechanism. It also examined if celebrity faces were more holistically, and non-celebrity faces more analytically, encoded. Half of the stimulus material consisted of Caucasian Americans, and the other half of African Americans. One third of the faces belonged to celebrities. The task for the 51 participants was to recognize the faces. The results showed that celebrity faces were more often recognized than non-celebrity faces, and the difference was greater in holistic processing than in analytic. The difference between Caucasian and African faces showed the same tendency, but was not significant.

Rural Teacher Satisfaction: An Analysis Of Beliefsand Attitudes Of Rural Teachers' Job Satisfaction

Huysman, John 01 January 2007 (has links)
The purpose of this research was to understand the beliefs and attitudes of teachers that affect their perceptions of job satisfaction in one small rural Florida school district. Data collected included a self-administered survey of Likert-type items measuring 20 factors for job satisfaction (96% response rate), individual semi-structured interviews, and focus groups. Analysis of the data confirmed prior research suggesting that multiple factors influence job satisfaction. Intrinsic satisfaction factors were the best predictors of overall job satisfaction: security, activity, social service, variety, and ability utilization. Extrinsic factors were most likely to predict overall dissatisfaction: recognition, company policies, opportunities for advancement, co-workers, and compensation. Interviews and focus groups further confirmed how participants projected personal significance onto these factors and how they interacted. The complexity of these interactions stemmed from personal perceptions and values participants placed on individual extrinsic factors and linked those values to other extrinsic factors. Consequently, other extrinsic factors took on perceptions of dissatisfaction based on the original factor. In addition, this research revealed several issues not previously reported in studies of rural teaching. First, "role confusion" emerged as a major source of job dissatisfaction for teachers who were either raised in the community or who had spent a considerable number of years in the community. These teachers often found themselves frustrated at work because of conflicting expectations and perceptions between their professional roles as teachers and their social roles in the community. Second, a high majority of teachers interviewed expressed dissatisfaction because they believed other teachers to have undue influence and power. However, interview data suggested that power was distributed properly but pervasive informal decision making processes led to the widespread perception of favoritism. In addition, teachers often exercised influence because no one opposed them. This study suggests that research to gain a better understanding of the sociology of rural communities needs to be conducted in rural education generally and specifically in rural teacher job satisfaction. Rural teachers' job satisfaction is complexly intertwined with a wide range of factors. Suggested uses for this study include an invitation for rural administrators and teachers to incorporate issues related to job satisfaction into their school improvement and professional development strategies. Addressing the factors influencing rural teacher job satisfaction, which have been previously overlooked, affords rural administrators a new opportunity to positively influence teacher retention, teacher quality, student achievement, and school climate.

The provision of education to minorities, with special emphasis on South Africa

Mothata, Matoane Steward 06 1900 (has links)
Against the background of the lack of consensus on the definition of the concept minority and the continuing debates on minorities and their rights in education, a need exists for adequate provision of education suitable to different minorities. This study investigates the provision of education to minorities. A literature survey investigated how various countries make provision for minorities in their education systems, starting from the Constitutions and various education laws to educational practice. These countries include Belgium, Getmany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom (UK) and Italy. Regarding South Africa, an analysis of documents dealing with the provision of education to minorities was undertaken. Unstructured interviews, from a small sample of informants selected by purposeful sampling, elicited additional data to the document analysis. Data was analysed, discussed and synthesised. The major findings are: there is no international consensus on the definition of the concept minority; the concept minority does not even appear in the Constitutions of some of the countries under investigation; the South African Constitution uses the concept communities rather than minorities. However, no definition of the concept community is provided and despite reservations expressed by a key informant on group rights, generally the South African Constitution contains enough sections regarding the provision of education to minorities. Subject to certain limitations, minority groups may open their own schools and use their own language. Based on these findings, recommendations for educational provision for minorities are made. / Educational Studies / D.Ed. (Comparative Education)

Table your story : Ett bord att leva med

Horner, Eleonor January 2010 (has links)
I projektet har jag utformat ett bord för hemmet som man kan leva med hela livet och som enkelt kan anpassas utifrån olika människors behov, och förändras allt eftersom ens livssituation och behov förändras.  Bordet ska kännas värdefullt och få ett mervärde genom att laddas med personliga berättelser och vara något man vill behålla och bevara.   Samtidigt är bordet tänkt att vara en startpunkt för att få människor att börja reflektera över sina förhållningssätt till konsumtion och vilka värden som är viktiga i livet. I ett längre perspektiv  hoppas jag att detta kan minska den onödiga konsumtionen och bryta den slit- och slängmentalitet som råder i samhället. / In this project I designed a table for the home, that you can live with through the life. It can easily be adapted to different needs and change when the life situation and needs change. The table should feel useful and get added value by telling personal stories and be something you want to keep and preserve.   Meanwhile, the table intended to be a starting point to get people to start thinking about their approach to consumption, and which values that are important in their lives, and in the long run reduce the unnecessary consumption.

從組織知識學習與資源觀點探討台灣自有品牌廠商的國際行銷通路建構模式 --以網通廠商為例 / The study on international marketing channel model of the Taiwanese own brand corporation by using organizational learning and resource based theory

謝政樺, Hsieh, Cheng Hua Unknown Date (has links)
台灣資訊電子業自八零年代初期開始,憑藉著充沛且低廉的高素質勞動力,為歐、美、日等國際大廠從事OEM、ODM業務,為自身培育出堅強的製造與設計研發能力,並且為台灣創下經濟奇蹟以及獲得「電腦王國」的稱號。然而這種主要為滿足國際大廠需求而塑造出來的發展模式,使得台灣廠商習慣於接受客戶訂單要求的經營模式,對於廠商本身在定義產品、國際行銷、品牌發展以及通路經營等方面並未有長足進步。此外,近年來受到全球化、區域經濟整合以及新興市場國家的崛起,加上台灣已逐漸邁入已開發國家,勞力不再低廉、土地成本高漲、環保意識逐漸抬頭等,使台灣廠商過去所仰賴的競爭優勢已不復存在。施振榮先生提出「微笑曲線」,他認為台灣產業必須從過去附加價值低的製造代工的角色,轉型走向價值鏈兩端的研發設計與品牌經營。近幾年來,企業界和政府已經感受到品牌對於企業經營的重要性,以目前看來,已經有許多台灣自有品牌廠商在各自領域中大放異彩,並且在全球市場上占有一席之地。 過去對於台灣廠商在自有品牌經營的發展狀況,已有許多學者專家投入相關議題的研究。然而在研究上大多為探索台灣企業經營自有品牌成功的關鍵因素,或者是自有品牌的經營策略,對於自有品牌成功關鍵因素之一的行銷通路建構,其相關議題研究較少。因此,本研究將著重於影響企業經營自有品牌成功的關鍵因素中,被多數研究所認同的關鍵成功因素:「行銷通路建構」,進行深入探討,並且針對從創業開始便從事自有品牌經營的廠商進行研究,藉以充分瞭解廠商自有品牌建立的實務過程。本研究擬採用個案研究方式,以在網通產業品牌經營有成的D-Link友訊科技與A公司作為本研究的個案對象,期望將有助於其他有志發展自有品牌之企業作為其未來經營之參考依據。 本研究之研究問題有三:1.台灣自有品牌廠商的國際行銷通路建構型態與方式為何?2.台灣自有品牌廠商在國際行銷通路建構過程中對於不同市場特性、產品組合與通路商類型的因應方式與對策為何?3.影響台灣自有品牌廠商國際行銷通路建構的關鍵性因素與作法為何? 本研究先行針對相關文獻進行回顧,瞭解可作為通路建構模式的相關文獻,包括「自有品牌」、「行銷通路」、「組織學習理論」以及「資源基礎論」等相關理論,並透過個案訪談以及次級資料蒐集整理方式,獲得個案公司資訊,並分析個案公司的通路建構模式。本研究主要獲得以下結論: 1.自有品牌廠商在進入國際市場初期,地區代理商為其主要的行銷通路。然而經營主管對於通路經營理念上的差異,便會造成通路商數量選擇上的不同。此後,廠商便會針對通路商從事系統性的通路整合與管理,發展出整體行銷通路體系。 2.自有品牌廠商在各地區當地的業務主管與經營團隊成員對於其通路建構成功與後續通路管理扮演不可或缺的角色。 3.自有品牌廠商透過與通路商溝通以及提供通路商教育輔導,將有助於產品銷售以及減少通路衝突,強化彼此關係,創造彼此利益。 4.自有品牌廠商所提供的高品質、高效能的產品,將有助於廠商國際行銷通路之建構。 5.自有品牌廠商透過資源蓄積與組織外部學習方式,所建構出在資源面與能力面上的新策略性資源,將有助於廠商行銷通路建構。然而自有品牌廠商組織文化上的差異,將會造成通路建構策略與方式上的不同。 本研究對於實務上的管理建議為: 1.自有品牌廠商宜著重技術深耕與研發並且提供通路商高品質的產品與服務。 2.自有品牌廠商宜重視與授權在地化經營以增進在地經營團隊對於企業的認同感。 3.自有品牌廠商宜建立完善的組織學習機制。 關鍵字:自有品牌、行銷通路、組織學習、資源基礎論 / Taiwanese electronic companies are good at manufacturing and design, and take OEM/ODM business for the first-tier international electronic companies. However, in recently, the competitive advantages of Taiwanese companies gradually decline due to the booming of the the developing countries. Thus, industrial and government highly appealed the companies to develop their own brand, and hoped it will show good performances in the near future. Until now, some of the companies reveal outstanding results in their own industry, and become the global well-know enterprises. In the past, it had been many researches who did the relevant topics about the Taiwanese companies establishing their own brand. Neverethelss, most of the researches focused on discussion the successful factors of establishing own brand or the own brand business strategy rather than on establishing marketing channel, the key successful factor of establishing own brand. Thus, the study will focus on discussion the market channel establishment, and select to research the own brand companies which built their own brand from start-up in order to understand the practical procedure. The case companies are D-Link and A Corp., the first tier Taiwanese network communication manufacture company. Their remarkable performance can be the examples for the other companies to follow them. The main literature in this study includes own brand, marketing channel, organizational learning, and resource-base theory. The study takes case interview and collect the second-hand data to acquire the critical information of the case companies and analyze their marketing channel model. There are several conclusions from the study: 1.In the early stage of entry international market, own brand company’s main channel is local agency. However, the different channel management ideas between the leaders will induce to select differenct channels numbers. However, own brand companies will gradually conduct channel integration and management to develop their whole marketing channel system. 2.The local mangers and business teams of the own brand companies play the key players to establish marketing channel and their channel management. 3.Own brand companies who usually communicate with the channel members and provide education course for the channel parmters will bring benefits for their sales, reduce the conflicts, consolidate mutual relationship, and create mutual benefits. 4.Own brand companies who provide high quality and performance products will bring positive effects to establish marketing channel. 5.Own brand companies who accumulate internal resources and conduct external organizational learning will build strategy assets in assets and capabilities sides. Neveretheless, the organizational cultural difference will make a difference in the strategy and method of establishing marketing channel. In the study, the managerial suggestions for the companies who would like to develop their own brand include: 1.The companies have to focus on strengthen their R&D and provide high quality and performance products for their channel partners. 2.The companies have to empower the localization and promote the local business teams’ identity for the company. 3.The companies have to build a well-done organizational learning system. Key words: Own Brand, Marketing Channel, Organizational Learning, Resource Based Theory
