Perceptions about gender-based discrimination in a selection of South African companies / Renier SteynSteyn, Renier January 2014 (has links)
Introduction: From a legal point of view, gender-based discrimination is not condoned in the workplace. However, perceptions that such discrimination exists persist. Understanding the extent and nature of the phenomenon may contribute to the management thereof. Aim: The aim of this research was to report on the nature and level of workplace gender-based discrimination from the perspective of managers and employees, as well as by making use of objective measures. Method: Interviews were conducted with 75 managers focusing on the prevalence of gender-based discrimination in specific organisational processes. Furthermore, 145 managers and 1 740 employees completed questionnaires on this topic. Results: Managers reported flaws in all the organisational processes investigated. According to these managers, some processes showed a pro-female bias whilst others displayed a pro-male bias. More female than male employees reported discriminatory incidents at work, but both groups reported gender-based discrimination. Gender-based discrimination was the most prominent form of discrimination reported by women. Some female respondents reported pro-male and others pro-female discrimination. The same pattern applied to men. No statistically significant gender wage gap was found and the salaries of males and females were not differentially affected by qualifications, training, workplace experience or family responsibility. Managers and employees concurred that gender-based discrimination was the primary source of discrimination in the workplace, and they reported similarly on the consequences of this problem. Conclusions and recommendations: Managers are aware of discrimination in organisational processes. This awareness can be used to initiate programmes aimed at minimising discrimination. Both males and females are exposed to gender-based discrimination and they report similar consequences. This suggests that interventions should be directed at both groups. The different, and often opposing, reports provided by the male and female groups support the social identity theory and conceptions of group-serving bias. From the objective data it can be concluded that perceptions of being discriminated against are the result of psycho-social processes and not necessarily the result of justifiable biographical differences. / PhD (Business Administration), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2014

The validation of a suitable nutrient profiling model for South Africa / Mariaan Wicks.Wicks, Mariaan January 2012 (has links)
Aim
Nutrient profiling is defined as “the science of classifying or ranking food items according to their nutritional composition for reasons related to preventing disease and promoting health, and can be used to govern the criteria under which nutrient and/or health claims may be made”. The validation of a nutrient profiling model (NPM) is an essential part of the model development process, and is extremely important for the model to meet basic scientific criteria. This mini-dissertation investigated the content and convergent validity of a suitable NPM for South Africa.
Method
Content validity was tested for by comparing the NPM classification of 131 “indicator” foods with the classification of the “indicator” foods by the Food Based Dietary Guidelines (FBDGs). Convergent validity was tested for by comparing the standard ranking of a representative data set of food items (n = 128) by nutrition experts with the classification of the food items by the NPM. The questionnaire asked respondents to rank 40 foods (electronically generated from a master list of 128 foods) according to the nutritional information provided from “more healthy” to “less healthy” using a six point Likert scale. The 128 foods were selected to be representative of the South African diet. These questionnaires were sent via e-mail to all full members (n = 1105) of the Association of Dietetics in South Africa. The draft “Guiding principles and framework manual for the development or adaptation of nutrient profile models” dated 22 February 2011 (WHO, 2011), was used as a guide in the validation process of the NPM.
Results
The NPM showed good content validity: the way that the NPM categorises foods correspond well with that of the FBDGs (kappa statistic = 0.73). Two hundred and ninety two responses were received (26.4%) from the nutrition experts, these responses were used to rank the 128 foods by the average score which they received from the nutrition experts. The NPM also showed good convergent validity: the NPM classification of foods had a good correlation with the standard ranking of foods by dietitians (r = 0.853; p = 0.0001).
Conclusion
The NPM demonstrated good content validity by classifying food items in way that supports the FBDGs with the exception of a few processed food items and combined food items. The NPM also demonstrated good convergent validity by classifying food items in accordance with the views of nutrition experts in South Africa. / Thesis (MSc (Dietetics))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2013.

Male and female consumers' knowledge, perceptions and use of clothing labels / Anna Magdalena Niemann (neé Krüger)Niemann, Anna Magdalena January 2010 (has links)
Background and motivation
Clothing labels concern the permanently attached labels as well as the temporarily attached
labels known as hangtags that are found on clothing products. Clothing labels assist consumers
when they are deciding whether or not to purchase clothing products, by providing product
information and potential care instructions. Clothing labels are made up of two attributes, namely
the physical nature of clothing labels in addition to the information on clothing labels.
Adequate knowledge, positive perceptions and optimal use of clothing labels may result in
satisfied consumers who make responsible and informed purchases. The aim of this study was
subsequently, to determine male and female consumers’ knowledge, perceptions and use of
clothing labels. The provision of clothing labels does not guarantee that consumers will read,
understand or apply the information on clothing labels. Therefore this research is based on
retailers’ assumption that the provision of informative clothing labels is sufficient to encourage the
usage thereof and that all consumers understand and perceive the clothing labels as intended.
Due to the lack of research that exists in South Africa in the field of clothing labels, it is not known
whether consumers have adequate knowledge and positive perceptions of clothing labels and the
information on them, and whether they use the labels optimally.
Methodology
The research design of this study was non–experimental, quantitative, exploratory, and
descriptive. Questionnaires were used as the measuring instrument to collect the data. The study
population included all the consumers in three municipalities in the North–West Province above
the age of 18 years, male as well as female, who can read and who had purchased a clothing
product some time from one of the selected stores. Data collection was undertaken in the
Bonjana, Platinum and Southern district municipalities, which included, Rustenburg, Klerksdorp
and Potchefstroom. A total of 304 usable questionnaires were obtained.
Results and discussion
On average 71% of the respondents had adequate knowledge of the information presented on
clothing labels (excluding the care instructions) and 65.6% had adequate knowledge regarding
the care instructions. Respondents perceived colours in general (79.9%), letter size (83%) and
readability (77.7%) of information on clothing labels as positive. They found it very important that
the information on clothing labels will not fade (68.8%), and that the positioning remains constant
(78.8%), in addition to not showing (84.9%). Respondents perceived the indication of information
on clothing as positive, regarding the fibre content (84.2%), country of origin (61.2%), size
indication (89.5%) as well as additional information, such as applied special finishes (76.4%) and
indication of eco friendly clothing (69.5%) and licensed trade marks (78%). Respondents
sufficiently made use of the care instructions in words (68.1%) and symbols (63.2%) when
purchasing similar items. More than half (56.9%) of the respondents used the indication of special
finishes applied to clothing during the pre– and post purchasing phase. The indication of eco
friendly clothing was used by the respondents (51%) for future reference and 63.5% made use of
the licensed trademarks when purchasing similar products.
In conclusion the results generally indicated that the respondents had adequate knowledge and
positive perceptions of clothing labels, and made use of clothing labels before, during and after
purchasing clothing products. Furthermore only small significant differences were found between
male and female respondents’ knowledge, perceptions and use of clothing labels. It was
established that relationships do exist between respondents’ knowledge, perceptions and use of
clothing labels. / Thesis (M. Consumer Science)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2011.

Consumer perceptions regarding labels on clothing and household textile products : a study in Gauteng / Liezl SteynSteyn, Liezl January 2010 (has links)
Textile product labels are provided on the clothing and household textile products to assist consumers with important product information. However, the assumption cannot be made that because the label is available on these products it will be used by consumers. Consumers do not base their pre– and post–purchasing decisions on reality but rather on what they perceive to be the reality. Thus consumers’ perceptions of textile product labels need to be studied as it influences their pre– and post–purchasing decisions and use of these labels. Consumers use their perceptions as a frame of reference for making purchasing decisions. This study determined consumers’ perceptions, in order to form a better understanding of their textile pre– and post–purchasing decisions. However, perception is not a singular concept but an interactive process. Therefore, the present study, done in the Gauteng Province, aimed to determine consumers’ perceptions of clothing and household textile labels, by focusing on the perceptual process of consumers. The first objective was to determine consumers’ awareness of labels on clothing and household textile products. Secondly, it was determined whether consumers’ attention is drawn to labels of clothing and household textile products. Thirdly it was determined whether labels on textile products are important to consumers and finally, whether consumers interpret labels on textile products. An interviewer–administered questionnaire was used as the data collection technique. A total of 411 questionnaires were administered by trained fieldworkers. The study location was three different regions in Gauteng Province, namely: Pretoria, Vereeniging and the West Rand. Public locations were used for the recruitment of respondents selected within the three regions, which included: schools, retirement villages, parking areas and government institutions. This contributed to the probability that a diverse group of respondents participated. The study population consisted of 44.5% males and 55.5% females. The home languages most spoken among the respondents were English (20.9%), Afrikaans (21.1%) or isiZulu (16.5%). Respondents generally tended to have a positive perception regarding textile product labels. The results illustrated that respondents tended to agree to be aware of label information and that the front and back panels of the label draw their attention. However respondents tended to be neutral as to whether the information is important enough to read. Respondents mostly agreed that they interpret the symbols on textile product labels. Although respondents tended to perceive textile product labels positively, it still remains unclear whether it is important enough for consumers to use these labels found on textile products. By striving to improve consumers’ perceptions regarding textile product labels through better labelling initiatives and consumer education on labels, consumers might view labels as important and use them before and after purchasing a textile product. This will in effect teach consumers how to clean and maintain textile products to extend the product’s lifespan. This would in turn contribute to the consumer’s pre– and post–purchasing satisfaction. This study additionally found that respondents’ perceptions of textile product labels were influenced by some of their demographic characteristics. Although there were no large effect sizes which illustrated practical significance, there were some small to medium tendencies regarding respondents’ perceptions of textile product labels and their demographic characteristics. Different tendencies were especially found when analysing the relationships between respondents’ perceptions and age or language. Older respondents (60 and older) tended to have a more positive perception of textile product labels than younger respondents (18 to 29 years). In addition, respondents with an African language as their home language seemed to differ from Afrikaans and English respondents. To understand South African consumers fully, researchers should understand the diversity and political history of South Africa, by focusing on cultural differences and reasons thereof. Different age generations need to be examined in further South African studies in order to determine the perceptions of consumers from different age groups regarding textile product labels. / Thesis (M.

Exploring the perceptions of psychiatric patients regarding marijuana use / L.A. SehularoSehularo, Leepile Alfred January 2010 (has links)
There is little understanding of marijuana use by psychiatric patients, specifically regarding the issue why they continue smoking marijuana in spite of the negative consequences, such as being readmitted to psychiatric hospitals due to a diagnosis called marijuana–induced psychosis. Therefore, it is important to understand why psychiatric patients continue to use marijuana, despite experiencing its negative effects on their condition.
From the above background, the researcher identified the need to explore and describe the perceptions of psychiatric patients regarding marijuana use in Potchefstroom, North–West Province. The exploration and description of these psychiatric patients' perceptions regarding marijuana use will provide insight into more appropriate care and treatment in order to reduce the readmissions of psychiatric patients due to marijuana–induced psychosis.
A qualitative, exploratory, descriptive and contextual research design was followed in order to give 'voice' to the perceptions of psychiatric patients regarding marijuana use. Purposive sampling was utilised to identify participants who complied with the set selection criteria. The sample size was determined by data saturation, which was reached after ten individual interviews with psychiatric patients. Unstructured individual interviews were utilised to gather data after written approval from the research ethics committee of the North–West University (Potchefstroom campus), North–West Provincial Department of Health, the clinical manager of the psychiatric hospital where data were collected, as well as from the psychiatric patients. After the co–coder and the researcher of the study analysed the data independently, a meeting was scheduled to reach consensus on the categories and subcategories that emerged from the data.
The findings of this study indicated perceptions that psychiatric patients have on: the use of marijuana, the negative effects of marijuana use, marijuana use and mental illness, and stopping the use of marijuana. From this results it seems that although some patients realise that stopping the use of marijuana might be difficult, some patients want to walk the extra mile by helping other people to stop smoking marijuana. It is of specific interest that psychiatric patients seem to expect external groups to take responsibility on their behalf to terminate the use of marijuana, namely: foreigners, the police and the Rastafarians.
From the findings, literature and the conclusions of this study, recommendations in the fields of nursing education, nursing research as well as nursing practice were made. / Thesis (M.Cur.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2011.

An exploration of the intergenerational relationships between young adults and older people in the Khuma community / Thato Palesa Penelope MabasoMabaso, Thato Palesa Penelope January 2011 (has links)
Intergenerational research aims to promote greater understanding and respect between
generations and contribute to building more cohesive communities. Intergenerational
relationships form part of our social make–up as they affect social interactions, the use of
local spaces, opportunities to take part in public life on an equal basis with others, the degree
to which people participate in community life as well as efforts to improve such life.
Research indicates that what matters most for young adults and older people is the quality of
the interactions taking place between them. Very little is known about the nature of the
intergenerational relationships between young adults and older people in an African context.
The aim of the study was therefore to explore the intergenerational relationships between
young adults and older people in a rural African community.
A qualitative research method was used in the study. Two groups of participants were
selected though availability sampling method. The group consisted of 11 male participants
between 20 to 35 years of age, 6 participants were over the age of 60 (one male and five
female). The younger participants were asked to make visual representations of how they
perceive the older generation by means of using the Mmogo–method. After the younger
participants described their visual representations, the older participants were asked to reflect
on the descriptions given by the younger participants. The older people assumed an active
listening position while the young adults shared their representations. Informal group
discussion was used to facilitate a process of sharing and comparing of perceptions among
the participants. The data obtained from the group discussions and applying the Mmogomethod
were analysed on the basis of thematic and visual analysis. The trustworthiness of
the study was ensured through crystallisation.
The results indicate that the relationships between young adults and older people consist
of the ambivalent perceptions of the young adults and mostly extreme negative perceptions of
older people. As a result, the relationships between the young and old generations seem to be
dissatisfying for both generations. Both young and old discover essential tensions in the
relationships they create and sustain across generations. Intergenerational tensions may not be so easily identified or concretely observable in everyday behaviour, attitudes, and emotions.
But, consistent with the dialectical framework, it is part of all intergenerational relationships
at some level. Identifying these underlying tensions is important so that we do not glorify or
idealise the interactions of young and old whenever and wherever they occur. Solidarity is
not the only outcome of intergenerational relationships; ambivalence as well as conflict is a
part of the theory that has often been neglected.
In view ofthe importance of intergenerational relationships between the young adults and
the older people, intergenerational interventions should be planned to promote the effective
negotiation of intergenerational relationships between older persons and the younger
generation. / Thesis (M.A. (Research Psychology))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2012.
