Full textThe findings show that reemployment through job recalls is relatively easier than through job switches. Even though many unemployed workers remained to benefit from the structural buffer of internal labor markets in their struggle for reemployment, workers losing core-sector jobs are found to have more difficulty in switching to a new job relative to those losing peripheral jobs. The finding illustrates a critical weakness of internal labor markets in reallocating unemployed workers.
Furthermore, the impact of the labor market location of lost jobs is also observed in both the manner and the extent to which the individual attributes of unemployed workers affect the process of reemployment. (1) More education substantially improves the reemployment chances of workers losing core-services jobs, but not workers unemployed from other sectors. (2) The reemployment probability of workers losing core-services jobs is increased with an improvement in general education whereas the reemployment probabilities of workers losing core goods-production jobs tend to increase with an accumulation in firm-specific skills. (3) Men tend to maintain their reemployment advantage through their access to internal labor markets whereas women improve their reemployment probability by benefiting from job expansion in service industries. (4) Experienced core-service workers tend to have a shorter unemployment duration than young ones when their jobs are available for recall, whereas experienced peripheral goods production workers often have a competitive disadvantage in switching to a new job. And (5) UI benefits slow down the job-recall rate substantially but have little impact on the individual behavior of searching for a new job. The problem of timing termination of unemployment duration to coincide with exhaustion of UI benefits is much more severe for the job-recall rate than for the job-switch rate.

Full textFetzer, Gregory Thomas. "ThePersistence Dilemma in Long-duration Creative Projects:." Thesis, Boston College, 2021. http://hdl.handle.net/2345/bc-ir:109219.
Full textPersistence, continuing effort in the face of challenges over time, can have clear benefits for creativity. At the same time, abandonment, stopping effort toward a course of action, is often necessary to help creators move forward towards their best ideas. Creative workers, and the organizations that employ them, thus face a dilemma between forces for persistence and forces for abandonment in developing ideas and projects, what I refer to as the persistence dilemma. Existing theory provides some clues about this dilemma (e.g. theories of motivation or escalation of commitment), but a lack of holistic theorizing leaves many questions outstanding. Through a longitudinal qualitative study of four organizations, I set out to explore how creative workers managed the persistence dilemma. I found that the organizational context shaped how project teams responded to the dilemma. Teams within the startups I studied managed the dilemma with a process focused on commitment. Leaders helped team members transform the ambivalence that resulted from the dilemma into commitment to the organizations core project. Teams in the established organization, by contrast, managed the dilemma with a process focused on balance. The organization focused on balancing forces for abandonment and forces for persistence since both were perceived as necessary and beneficial in their own way. My work has implications for understanding the persistence dilemma, as well as for theories of creativity more generally

Full textKidder, Emily. "Tone, intonation, stress and duration in Navajo." University of Arizona Linguistics Circle, 2008. http://hdl.handle.net/10150/126405.
Full textThe phenomena of tone, intonation, stress and duration interact on the phonetic level due to their shared use of the acoustic cues of pitch and segment length. The Navajo language, in which the existence of intonation and stress has been questioned by native speakers and scholars (McDonough, 2002), provides a unique system for studying this interaction, due to the presence of both phonemic tone and phonemic segment length. The variable nature of stress and intonation, as well as their status as linguistic universals has been debated among scholars of prosody (Connell and Ladd, 1990; Laniran, 1992; McDonough, 2002; Hayes, 1995). This paper discusses the interaction between these prosodic elements in Navajo, arguing that stress and intonation cannot be concretely identified, and positing a causal relationship between the presence of contrastive tone and length, the lack of stress and the lack of intonation.

Full textThe RAF-MEK-ERK signalling pathway controls fundamental, often opposing cellular processes such as proliferation and apoptosis. Signal duration has been identified to play a decisive role in these cell fate decisions. However, it remains unclear how the different early and late responding gene expression modules can discriminate short and long signals and what features govern their timing. Both protein phosphorylation and gene expression time course data was obtained from HEK293 cells carrying an inducible construct of the proto-oncogene RAF. A new gene expression module of immediate-late genes (ILGs) distinct in gene expression dynamics and function was identified by mathematical modelling. It was found that mRNA longevity enables these ILGs to respond late and thus translate ERK signal duration into response amplitude. Despite their late response, their GC-rich promoter structure suggested and metabolic labelling with 4SU confirmed that transcription of ILGs is induced immediately. A comparative analysis showed that the principle of duration decoding is conserved in PC12 cells and MCF7 cells, two paradigm cell systems for ERK signal duration. Altogether, the findings of this study indicate that ILGs decode ERK signal duration and that both decoding capacity and gene expression timing are governed by mRNA half-life.

Full textBackground: Breastfeeding brings many health benefits to the child, the mother and the community. Current recommendations in Sweden are exclusive breastfeeding the first six months. Statistics show a decreasing breastfeeding rate. The midwife's profession includes offering support and advice on breastfeeding. Aim: To investigate womens experience of breastfeeding, information about breastfeeding and problems related to breastfeeding. Method: A quantitative cross-sectional study with a deductive approach was used. Data was collected through a SIFO survey conducted by Philips Nordic. Analysis was performed in SPSS and presented by descriptive statistics. Results: The results of the study showed that many women were turning to health care for information and advice on breastfeeding, and that they experienced deficiencies in the information they received. Many of the women reported that problems with breastfeeding had occurred, and almost one-fifth had felt uncertain to breastfeed. Conclusion: Many women stopped breastfeeding earlier than recommended and experienced problems and uncertainties about breastfeeding. To get information and support, many women turned to the health care services. However, it appeared that the information and support was inadequate, which may adversely affect breastfeeding rates. Healthcare needs to improve the information and support offered to reverse the declining breastfeeding rate.
