Full text¿Cómo interpretar y esclarecer desde una perspectiva fenomenológica la exigencia de que la fundamentación filosófica considere tanto la legitimidad o validez universal de los principios éticos como la diversidad de formas de vida? ¿Qué puede decir la fenomenología sobre la distancia entre la fundamentación teórica de la ética y la aplicación práctica de sus principios? Para esclarecer estas dos preguntas, en primer lugar, se toma como referencia las características de la ética del discurso de Habermas para mostrar en qué consiste la ética material de los valores de Scheler y en qué sentido rechaza tanto el universalismo como el relativismo. En segundo lugar, se exponen los conceptos que articulan la fundamentación fenomenológica de esta ética con el fin de precisar en qué sentido lo universal” y lo individual” se entienden como complementarios. Finalmente, a partir de algunas preguntas concernientes al problema de la distancia entre la teoría y la práctica suscitadas por esta concepción, se esbozan algunas líneas temáticas para indicar hasta qué punto es posible esperar de la ética material de los valores que acorte dicha distancia.

Previous research has demonstrated that a network model of destination value creation (i.e. the Destination Value System model) based on the flows of travelers within a destination can be used to estimate and predict individual attractions’ marginal contributions to total visitor expenditures. While development to date of the Destination Value System (DVS) has focused on the value created from dyadic relationships within the destination network, previous research supports the proposition that system-level network structures significantly influence the total value created within a destination. This study, therefore, builds upon previous DVS research in order to determine the relationships between system-level network structures and total value creation within a destination. To answer this question econometric analysis of panel data covering 43 Florida destinations over the period from 2007 to 2015 was conducted. The panel data was created utilizing volunteered geographic information (VGI) obtained from 4.6 million photographs shared on Flickr. Results of econometric analysis indicate that both seasonal effects and DVS network structures have statistically significant relationships with total tourism-related sales within a destination. Specifically, network density, network out-degree centralization, and network global clustering coefficient are found to have negative and statistically significant effects on destination value creation, while network in-degree centralization, network betweenness centralization, and network subcommunity count are found to have positive and statistically significant effects. Quarterly seasonality is also found to have dynamic and statistically significant effects on total tourism-related sales within a destination. Based on the network structures of destinations and total tourism related sales within destinations, this study also uses k-means cluster analysis to classify tourism destinations into a taxonomy of six different system types (Exploration, Involvement, Development I, Development II, Consolidation, and Stars). This taxonomy of DVS types is found to correspond to Butler’s (1980) conceptualization of the destination life cycle, and additional data visualization and exploration based on the DVS taxonomy finds distinct characteristics in destination structure, dynamics, evolution, and performance that may be useful for benchmarking. Additionally, this study assesses the quality of VGI data for tourism related research by comparing DVS network structures based on Flickr data and visitor intercept survey data. Support for the use of VGI data is found, provided that thousands of observations are available for analysis. When fewer observations are available, aggregation techniques are recommended in order to improve the quality of overall destination network system quantification. This research makes important contributions to both the academic literature and the practical management of destinations by demonstrating that DVS network structures significantly influence the economic value created within the destination, and thus suggests that a strategic network management approach is needed for the governance of competitive destinations. As a result, this study provides a strong foundation for the DVS model and future research in the areas of destination resiliency, “smarter” destination management, and tourism experience design.

s analysis. In light of the writings of these historical precursors, Marx constitutes a profound critique of capitalist mode of production. On the other hand, Deleuze and Guattari, as the representatives of contemporary French philosophy, develop a different account of capitalism in their influential book called Anti-Oedipus. By relying upon Nietzsche, in Anti-Oedipus, Deleuze and Guattari examine capitalism in a non-dialectical manner. Despite the fact that they reject the major aspects of Marxian mode of thinking, they concentrate on the similar questions shared by Marx. The question of capitalism and its conception as an immanent system which reproduces itself by means of capital appears as the common problem that directs them to think analogously. In this respect, this thesis is an attempt to discover the points of ruptures and the points of continuities in two different account of capitalism.

Full textMeasurement theory, based on projective measurements, is a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics. Weak measurements differ from standard projective measurements on which the elementary axioms of quantum physics are built. Although weak measurement framework is defined within standard quantum mechanics, its implications are still poorly understood. The thesis work is part of a broad reflexion that aims to understand the conceptual and practical implications of such a measurement and to understand it in the context of quantum theory.Chapter 1 is a detailed introduction to weak measurements and weak values. Next, we will study the "weak trajectories" in a two slit interferometer. In Chapter 3, we discuss the implications of a cancellation of a weak value with respect to the observation of weak trajectories in nested Mach-Zender interferometers. Finally, Chapter 4 deals with the theoretical and experimental criticisms in the literature of the effect of the Cheshire Cat that is defined in the framework of weak measurement

Full textThe outcomes of quantum measurements are generally considered to be random, but despite the fact that this randomness is an important element in quantum information theory, its nature is not well understood. In this thesis, we study several issues relating to the origin and certification of quantum randomness and unpredictability. One of the key results in forming our understanding of quantum mechanics as an intrinsically indeterministic theory is the Kochen-Specker theorem, which shows the impossibility to consistently assign simultaneous noncontextual definite values to all quantum mechanical observables prior to measurement. However, the theorem, under the assumption that any definite values must be noncontextual, only strictly shows that some observables must be value indefinite. We strengthen this result, proving a stronger variant of the Kochen-Specker theorem showing that, under the same assumption, if a system is prepared in an arbitrary state j i, then every observable A is value indefinite unless j i is an eigenstate of A. The indeterministic nature of quantum measurements does little to explain how the quality of quantum randomness differs from classical randomness. We show that, subject to certain physical assumptions, a sequence of bits generated by the measurement of value indefinite observables is guaranteed, in the infinite limit, to be strongly incomputable. We further discuss how this can be used to build a quantum random number generator certified by value indefiniteness. Next, we study the notion of unpredictability, which is central to the concept of (quantum) randomness. In doing so, we propose a formal model of prediction that can be used to asses the predictability of arbitrary physical experiments. We investigate how the quantum features of value indefiniteness and complementarity can be used to certify different levels of unpredictability, and show that the outcome of a single measurement of a value indefinite quantum observable is formally unpredictable. Finally, we study the relation between this notion of unpredictability and the computability-theoretic certification of quantum randomness

Full textThis thesis, structured in three logically interconnected papers, aims at achieving a better understanding of the phenomenon of Corporate Foundations (CFs) under a Shared Value Perspective, by determining that these organizations are suitable for creating value for both society and firms, and for addressing multiple stakeholders’ needs. The first paper, through a review of the literature researching on CFs and on Shared Value, analyses in depth the most innovative characteristics of these organizations, and attempts to consider some potentially interesting issues to be stressed, coherently with the perspective adopted. The second paper presents an exploratory study aimed at verifying how the interests of the founder firm influence the model, activities and issues addressed by CFs. The paper proposes a classification of CFs introducing an innovative model, the so-called edifier, and underlines which field of activities are more appropriate according to the objective of the firms. The third paper is aimed at investigating in depth the ties connecting Founder Firms and CFs, with a special attention to the mechanisms through which a firm can impact CF’s effectiveness. The paper puts in evidence that the adoption of a model has a substantial influence on effectiveness, with many consequences on the proactivity, competences and social influence of CFs.

Full textProductivity in the construction industry has for a long time been considered as low compared to other industries. The construction industry has started to adapt strategies that have been successful in other industries to increase the productivity. This report aims to examine how the information flow during foundation of concrete piles can be more efficient. The study is based on Skanska Sweden AB for the region of Skanska foundation. Concrete piling is one of the foundation activities that Skanska foundation performs. To create an understanding about the information flow, the authors had to identify the existing working method that was used today. The aim was then based on the current state to formulate a future state with a greater efficiency in the flow of information. BIM has begun to be implemented as a working method in the construction sector and have therefore been investigated in the report as an opportunity for an improved flow of information. To identify the production process for concrete piling within the company the authors have used value stream mapping. The method is a way of mapping a specific process, where the product that the customer wants is followed. The analysis originating from Toyotas method which today is referred to as lean. The mapping of concrete piling started from the transport of the factory to the pile was handed over to the customer. During the mapping the authors follows the material flow and the information flow related to the material during the process. The collection of data for the value stream mapping was done based on interviews and observations. To understand the possibility of implementations carried out a questionnaire and interviews, regarding the use of BIM in Skanska foundation. The use of BIM within the organization differs between the different professional groups, civil servants and skilled workers. The questionnaire survey was conducted on five projects in the Stockholm area. Among civil servants eight of 19 worked with BIM weekly or more often, while 16 of 17 skilled workers never had worked with BIM at all. The results of value stream analysis were collected from the two projects, the FSE 105 Concrete tunnel at Kungens kurva and interchange Vega. Based on the results the authors have formulated two areas of improvements. The first improvement is about release measuring through machine control and the second are about digitization of documents. Implementation of machine control on a pile driver does not need a long time to pay off financially. From the results, about 170,000 SEK can be saved per year and machine if machine control would be implemented on the pile drivers. There are more positive effects that have been observed during the study but these effects have not been measured. However, there are obstacles in the usability and technology today that require manual intervention at certain stages. For the development of BIM among the employees there are great gains through simplified information flow. With that there comes difficulties since a large proportion of employees is hindered by technology.

Full textThe decrease of the hydric losses with the reduction of the operation pressures of the distribution nets is a phenomenon a long time known for the sanitation and water distribution companies. Among the used techniques for this purpose, the division in sectors technique comes, now, as one of the more effective instruments of improvement and optimization of the supplying services. The division in sectors technique consists in the separation of the hydric urban provisioning system in districts denominated pitometric zones, with the general objective of establishing a more effective control of the water pressures and flows of these zones. The wide diffusion of this technique, however, would not be possible without the technological evolution of the key elements, necessary to carry out this control method of urban hydric supplying. Looking for subsidize the development of techniques for problems faced in the division in sectors technique of hydric provisioning nets, in this work is described a case study, accomplished in the dependences of the Company of Basic Sanitation of the State of São Paulo (SABESP) through which are presented solutions implemented by this Company which has been carried out for more than five years. This time allowed that the methods presented reach the necessary maturation degree so that a functional and each more reliable model of the division in sectors technique would be established. Through this study are presented, as original contribution, proposals guided to the use of resources of the digital protocol Foundation Fieldbus, looking for aggregate yet more autonomy and availability to the facilities of the hydric provisioning system of the coast superintendency of the referred Company and incorporating to this system differentiates characteristics as interoperability, flexibility and redundancy of the critical elements that composes it.

This work examines the construction of the pedagogic discourse in the Nova Escola (New School) magazine, the discoursive procedures utilized in this construction, and the framework of values in which these discourses insert themselves. Thus this work takes as the principle corpus of analysis the periods 1997-1998 and 2011-2012. Emphasizing the analysis of the magazine s editorials, covers and advertisements, this work investigates the effects of meaning that these texts produce based on its discoursive construction. For the description and analysis of the verbal-visual texts, it refers to the French semiotic and its model of analysis of the signification proposed by A. J. Greimas, together with the visual semiotic, with the contributions of J. M. Floch. Its objectives are to design a landscape about the emergence of the magazines and their similarity to the newspaper; to localize the emergence of the Brazilian pedagogic publications; to investigate the emergence and consolidation of the Editora Abril as an expressive communication company; to examine the creation of the Victor Civita Foundation and, lastly, to investigate the teacher simulacrum reiterated and strengthened by the discourse of Nova Escola (New School). The analysis points to the reinforcement of a simulacrum that sees education, specially the first two years, as vocation and mission, stressing the instrumental dimension at the expense of the conceptual. The gender questions are also important; above all by the fact of the woman-teacher simulacrum be continuously reiterated in the discourse of the refered media. In terms of discoursive procedures, the play between objectivity and subjectivity, reinforces the scientific discourse as well as the relation of approximation that the magazine establishes with its readers. Thus, this work verifies the absence of any lexeme that treats the associative and sindical questions related to the teaching profession. The reiteration of the red, in what refers to the visual aspects, and the passionate feature of the texts highlights the verbal-visual discourse of Nova Escola, intrinsically connected to the reinforcement of the love-dedication-education relation
Este trabalho examina a construção do discurso pedagógico na revista Nova Escola, os procedimentos discursivos utilizados nessa construção, e o quadro de valores no qual esses discursos se inserem. Para tanto, toma como corpus principal de análise as edições do quadriênio 1997-1998 e 2011-2012. Com ênfase para a análise dos editoriais, das capas e das publicidades veiculadas por Nova Escola, investiga os efeitos de sentido que esses textos produzem a partir de sua construção discursiva. Utiliza a semiótica francesa e o seu modelo de análise da significação proposto por A. J. Greimas, juntamente com a semiótica visual, com as contribuições de J.-M. Floch, para descrição e análise dos textos verbo-visuais. Objetiva, ainda, traçar um panorama do surgimento das revistas e sua similaridade com o gênero jornal; localizar o surgimento das publicações pedagógicas brasileiras; investigar o surgimento e a consolidação da Editora Abril como expressiva empresa de comunicação; examinar a criação da Fundação Victor Civita e, por fim, investigar o simulacro de professor reiterado e fortalecido pelo discurso de Nova Escola. A análise realizada indica o reforço a um simulacro que vê a docência, principalmente a dos anos iniciais de escolaridade, como vocação e missão, sobrelevando a dimensão instrumental em detrimento da conceitual. As questões de gênero também são importantes, sobretudo pelo fato do simulacro da mulher-professora ser reiterado continuamente no discurso da mídia em questão. Em termos de procedimentos discursivos, o jogo entre objetividade e subjetividade, reforça tanto o discurso científico, quanto a relação de aproximação que a revista instaura com o seu leitor. Verifica-se, pois, a ausência de qualquer lexema que trate das questões associativas e sindicais tendo em vista a profissão docente. A reiteração do vermelho, no que se refere aos aspectos plásticos, e da feição passional dos textos dão a tônica do discurso verbo-visual de Nova Escola, intrinsecamente ligado ao reforço da relação amor-dedicação-educação

Full textThe demographic over the age structure stand before a change, when the elderly people expect to increase considerably. For making it possible for care of the elderly and to provide a good form of health care should the need for competent staff and work environment be satisfactory. The purpose of this study was to examine which possibility and which facilities work leaders have to implement a healthy work environment. The method that was used in this qualitative research was hermeneutic method, to examine and interpret work leaders work environments work. In the results of this study it emerged that a majority of the work leaders meant that they had a good work environment and adequate facilities, but from the interviews could it be interpreted that the management and coworkers worked towards different goals. In the study it emerged that the foundation of values should be from the determinants of health, and these values can be a possibility to implement a healthy work environment within the care of the elderly. Another finding in the study was that the competence within care of elderly should increase, to encounter the future changed demands on care of elderly.

Full textStudien har genomförts i Backaryds kyrka efter ett förslag från Ankdammen konsult. Backaryd kyrka byggdes för drygt 200 år sedan i Ronneby kommun i Blekinge län. Med anledning av att uppvärmningsmetoder och energikrav förändrats sen kyrkan byggdes uppfyller kyrkan idag inte de komfort och energikrav som ställs på dagens byggnader. För att skapa förutsättningar för att kyrkan ska kunna bevaras och brukas även i framtiden krävs underhåll och restaurering. Studien av Backaryds kyrkan syftar till att undersöka golvkonstruktionen i kyrkan och även till att ta reda på vilka faktorer som kan leda till fuktskador. I studien har analyser av kyrkans och främst krypgrundens skick genomförts. Dessutom kommer några förbättringsåtgärder att föreslås för att få en god komfort inne i kyrka med en lämplig energiförbrukning. Förbättringsåtgärderna är framtagna med hänsyn till att bevara så mycket som möjligt av den ursprungliga konstruktionen och för att kunna använda det ursprungliga trägolvet. Både lagen och samhället ställer höga krav för bevarandet av värdefulla och kulturhistoriska byggnader till kommande generationer. Kyrkan är skyddad av Kulturmiljölagen och får därför inte ändras så att det kulturhistoriska värdet minskas eller att utseendet och karaktär förvanskas (SFS 1988:950). Dessutom måste alla ändringar av kyrkor som uppförts innan 1939 godkännas av länsstyrelsen.Resultat från studien visar att den relativa fuktigheten inte når kritiska nivåer varken i krypgrunden eller kyrkorummet. Det finns heller inga skador så som mögel- och rötangrepp på konstruktionen. Inventarierna håller en god kvalitet och saknar skador så som sprickor och röta.Skribenterna har kommit fram till följande förbättringsåtgärder:● En årlig underhållning av vattenledningssystem i krypgrunden. ● Täcka stenmurar med plastfolie på insidan för att göra det så lufttät och fukttät som möjligt. ● Placera trossbotten underifrån upp mot golvbjälklaget. ● Isolera golvbjälklaget med mineralull. ● Placera en plastfolie över hela marken i krypgrunden. ● Installera avfuktare i krypgrunden.

Full textFollowing paper deals with the questions about prehistorian and medieval settlements in the Mälar Valley and their relations to the historically known hamlets or single farmsteads from the 17th- and 18th-century cadastral maps. Models over settlement development through the period A.D 200 to 1700 done by geographers Ulf Sporrong and Dan Carlsson are tested and compared to the knowledge won by recent archaeological excavations. Is there a connection between the older settlements linked together by dry-stone walls and the late Iron Age settlements? Does the picture differ from the one presented for the Gotland region? How well are the general theories about different settlement development depending on basic natural conditions as for the potentials for cultivation and topography, corresponding to the physical remains? Are there other factors involved when the settlement structure takes its form?
The methods that are used here constitutes mainly of a comparison between different locations in the Mälar Valley that has got a well known prehistory thanks to extensive archaeological excavations. Cadastral maps, soilmaps, topography maps and maps over ancient monuments are intertwined to the same map and analyzed through works in Geographical information systems.
The results of this study reveal an interesting suspicion in the continuity-question through the Iron Age. Certain settlements seem to be more stable than what was earlier assumed in the general models. This occurrence of continuous use of sites must also be seen in a spatial context and not only a pattern formed by randomly chosen locations. The research has shown that it may be connected to the local political power in the Iron Age community. Related to this are also the different settlement forms where more than one unit occurs on a site. Concerning the different natural landscapes both disparities and similarities are found when it comes to the development that precedes the given situation on the cadastral maps. The conclusion is that the recent archaeological excavations definitely have shown us a more complex situation than what was once outlined in the early years of landscape archaeology.

Full textThis study investigates how actor status, moral foundations theory and Schwartz values influence the moral judgments of guilt and punishment. I argue that to understand individual values consequences for actions, they must be considered within organizational values and larger institutional logics frameworks. Building off Zerubavel’s conception of a three level cognition (Zerubavel 1999), I argue for a tri level conception of values and morality in order to more fully understand how moral judgements work as well as the social context in which they are shaped. Using original research, I offer evidence of three levels of morality. First, I evaluate actor status on judgments of guilt and punishment. I then evaluate individual moral culture using Schwartz Values (Schwartz 2012; Vaisey and Miles 2014). I evaluate the impact of the organization on moral culture measure through the use of status hierarchies (Sauder, Lynn, and Podolny 2012). Finally, I evaluate broader cultural morality using Moral Foundations Theory (Graham et al. 2016; Kesebir and Haidt 2010). Taken together, these three levels of morality present a more ecologically valid understanding of the ways in which moral culture works from the individual, through the meso-social level and to the broader culture. I demonstrate the complex ways in which moral judgments are influenced by universal concerns, organizational influences and individual characteristics. I find that moral foundations theory conceptions of harm does not predict judgments of guilt and punishment but that Schwartz Values do influence these moral judgments. I also find that it is the actor status that most strongly predicts the outcomes of guilt and punishment. The research provides a foundation for future research of how actor status influences moral judgments of guilt and punishment beyond the limited moral community of the current study.

Nowadays, personal appearance and image are important during the social contact. People can enhance or improve their own appearance using simple skin beauty. In addition, the use of makeup products should be recommended in order to have a much better rubicundity and to look high-spirited. A great number of color cosmetics such as lipsticks, foundations, mascaras, eyeshadows, and eyeliners were commercially available. Among these makeup products, foundations are the most primary. The main function of foundation creams is in its ability to hide skin flaws, leave the skin surface appear smoother, and modify skin color in face. It is well known that wherever a foundation is useful for complexions and skin smooth or not is determined by their qualities. However, there is a little publication on the influence of varying makeup bases on physicochemical properties. This had led to the development of elegant foundations. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the influence of various kinds of makeup bases such as thickener, colorants, titanium oxide and sunscreen agents on the storage stability and the sunburn protection of foundation products. In order to formulate a emulsion base, we selected sorbitan olivate with w/o type (Olivem 900) as a emulsifier and seven ingredients, MgSO4、NaCl、Silica、Bentonite、HEC、Xanthan Gum、and Veegum as thickeners. And then three chemical UV filters, OMC (Octyl Methoxy Cinnamate), Octocrylene(OCT) and P1789 (4-Tert-Butyl Methoxy Dibenzoyl Methane) were selected because they were the most widely used UV filters which were approved. In the first study, we search for an optimum w/o emulsion. In the second experiment, we performed studies using the incorporation of colorants and/or various kinds of TiO2 and/or UV filters at varying level into the W/O emulsion. Their physicochemical properties including viscosity, rheological behavior, and physical changes were evaluated and the sunburn protection was tested by Labsphere‘s UV-1000s transmittance analyzer (according to Food and Drug administration method). Moreover, the stability in color was measured using CIE-L, a, b system and determined as the difference between the colors observed in the foundations before and after accelerated test. In relating to physicochemical properties, the results showed that the incorporation of colorant or PROPA TiO2/DM (powder form) into the w/o emulsion can result in the increasing instability of the dispersion system. When the powder TiO2 was replaced with sunclear T40 (oily form), foundations with an aesthetic appearance were obtained and there are acceptable physicochemical properties. We have demonstrated that all the obtained products had pseudoplastic behavior which produces a coherent protective film covering the skin surface with evenly distributed functional ingredients. In the presence of sunclear T40 (oily form) foundations with or without UV filters exhibited a reasonable stability, but P1789 can easily cause the sedimentation of a colored precipitant in the dispersed system. Their storage stability was up to 28 days after accelerated test. Regarding to the stability in color, the results showed that total color change (ΔE) of all the foundations is below 1.41. Obviously, the color change is invisible. On the other hand, the sun protection factor (SPF) of all the foundations was measured. These results indicate that the SPF values were well correlating with the amounts of colorants, titanium oxide, and the used UV filters. The SPF value of the foundations increase with increasing level of colorants or TiO2. Incorporating single colorants and incorporation single TiO2 provide correlation coefficient of r=0.9999 and r=0.9724, respectively. But a combination of colorants with TiO2 had a lower correlation coefficient of r=0.9546. And then the incorporation of UV filters into the foundations contributed much higher SPF value. However, in order to avoid the foundations unstable and to cause skin irritant, total amount of the used UV filter should be limited to 4% in foundations. At the same time, it is noticed that oily TiO2 need to be used instead of powder TiO2 in order to ascertain the optimization of the foundations. Based on these findings, a desired foundation was obtained. With high SPF of 94.61, good stability at 45℃ testing for 28 days, and esthetic appearance, it is composed of Olivem 900 4%, Stearic acid 1.5%, Mineral oil 3%, DM 5 2.5%, Finsolv TN 3%, Cyclopentasiloxane 10%, UNIPHEN P-23 0.3%, W 712 7%, Sunclear T40 15%, Octyl Methoxy Cinnamate 2%, Octocrylene 2%, 1,3-Butylene Glycol 2.5%, Glycerin 2.5%, Bentonite 1.0%, Xanthan Gum 1.0%, D.W. 43.9%。

This thesis shall clarify how the German phenomenologist Max Scheler (1874-1928) attempts to give his ethics a thorough foundation, and how this foundation gives view to peculiar problems of ethics. The main focus of this investigation, of course, is his most important work, Formalismus in der Ethik und die materiale Wertethik. Neuer Versuch der Grundlegung eines ethischen Personalismus. Since Scheler asserts that his ethics is based on phenomenology, the author shall first provide a brief outline of Scheler''s understanding of phenomenology. Then he shall explain how Scheler uses phenomenology to display the two main concepts of his ethics, "value" and "person", and work out how their internal relationship could provide a foundation for ethical investigations. Finally, the thesis shall explain how the two concepts bring the following problems into view: the objective individual good, the relativity of morals, and the principle of solidarity. In the conclusion, further research that would be necessary for defending and broadening Scheler''s ethical thought shall be indicated.

The purpose of this study is to research Wanluan Community YaoKangDaZheng Foundation participants’ leisure motivations, values, and aspects of satisfaction. The study used scale questionnaires as the research tool and purposive sampling as the research method. In total 400 questionnaires were sent out, and 386 questionnaires were retrieved, giving 96.5% retrieval rate. After the data were collected, they were analyzed by utilizing Descriptive Statistical Analysis, Independent Sample T Test, One-way ANOVA, Scheffe's Posterior Comparisons, Related Analysis, and Multiple Linear Regression. The results as follows: a. Among Wanluan Community YaoKangDaZheng Foundation participants, the biggest motivation was to maintain physical fitness. They regarded social value the most, and emphasized on how relaxed they feel when it comes to aspects of satisfaction. b. Personal background of the participants was an important factor throughout the study, which caused significant differences in each section. For motivations, gender, occupation, and the regular riding partners influenced the social needs, while education level influenced the needs for physical fitness. Salary also determined the motivation, whether it was for physical fitness, social needs, or the experience. As for the value, occupation influenced the physical and mental value, and gender influenced the social value. Education level and the regular riding partners also notably affected both above values. Regarding the aspects of satisfaction, occupation had an impact on social aspect, education level influenced physical and mental aspect, while regular riding partners affected social aspect and relaxing aspect. c. There was a noticeable positive correlation between Wanluan Community YaoKangDaZheng Foundation participants’ leisure motivations and its values. The motivations also positively correlated to the aspects of satisfaction. At the same time, the values positively correlated to the aspects of satisfaction as well. d. There were 6 variables chosen from the participation motivations and the values after operating multiple regression analysis. Four main factors showed significant correlation and were selected based on the analysis: social value, physical and mental value, tension release, and social needs. The variability was 67.7%. Research conclusion: Leisure motivations and values can predict biking participants’ satisfaction level. Biking is recommended to the public as a leisure activity, especially with family and friends. It can not only improve leisure value, but also show higher satisfaction. The foundation can host more relating events, combining with diverse elements, and customizing distances and routes for different age groups. In addition, the government can promote more about the benefits of biking and design more biking routes, in order to create a better biking environment.

The goal of this study is to understand the consumer behavior in cosmetic field, thus, foundation, one of the most popular item of cosmetic was chosen as study taget. Due to the phenomenon of extensive price range of foundation product, price perceptions have became the main theme of this study, as trying to empirically examine the influence of materialism, individualism, hedonism on price perceptions; Furthermore, the influence of price perceptions on external search behavior via situation involvement and enduring involvement was examined empirically as well. Summing up all the casual relationships of constructs above, the theory model of this study was formed, then, structural equation modeling was adopted for hypotheses testing. According to the results, materialism will positively influence prestige sensitivity and value consciousness; Individualism will positively influence value consciousness and negatively influence prestige sensitivity; Hedonism will positively influence sale proneness, price mavenism and price consciousness. In addition, both prestige sensitivity and price mavenism will positively influence enduring involvement; Sale proneness, price consciousness and value consciousness will all positively influence situational involvement. Furthermore, enduring involvement, situational involvement and price mavenism will all positively influence search effort; Enduring involvement will positively influence search of neutral source; Situational involvement will positively influence search of media source; Enduring involvement will positively influence situational involvement. According to the empirical results, this study verified that different values will drive consumers’ attitude toward price into variety; Furthermore, different attitudes toward price will drive consumers to take distinct action on external search behavior as well. Thus, in order to establish an appropriate product price or marketing message, marketing managers should take the values of target customers into account on the process of planning pricing strategy or integrated marketing communication; Besides that, in order to increase the effectiveness of marketing campaign, marketing managers should adjust the channel of transmitting marketing message base on target customers’ attitude toward price.

Issue initiating and value maintaining are important functions of Non-Profit Organizations(NPOs). Through the process of public service, NPOs deeply idenfity the need of their serving objects. NPOs also affect general public by initiating issues, thus making people recognize and support their principles. NPOs make government to consider minority’s right and public interest while making decision, budgeting, and legislating. Therefore, the problems of social unfairness and irrationality, and unbalanced system can be reformed. Through the issue initiating of Mother Ke (Ke Tsai Yu-Xion), Legislative Yuan passed the “Act of Car Liability Insurance” in 1996. After John Tung Foundation had initiated non-smoking activity over a long period of time, the ”Act of Preventing the damage of Smoking” was finally passed by Legislative Yuan in 1997. Even Judy Williams, an American who integrated over 1300 NGOs and NPOs in 60 countries, initiated the “Global Anti-Landmine Treaty” in 1997 at Ottawa, Canada. The treaty was signed by 122 countries to stop landmine manufacturing, storage, and usage. This paper selects the Hondao Welfare Foundation as research object to identify strategy of issue initiating, value maintaining, pragmatic operation, and systematic model of NPOs by analyzing their operation model. 1. Conclusions. (1) Issue initiating can accomplish the purpose and mission of NPOs. (2) Developing public authority is the way to operate NPOs eternally. (3) The problem of elders will be a serious challenge to the society in the future. (4) Linkage of volunteers may resolve the manpower problems of NPOs. 2. Recommendations (1) Encouraging “Family with Three Generations” to resolve partial elder problem. (2) Government should evaluate the possibility of subsidizing the interest of foundation’s certificate of deposit. (3) Social volunteer service to be included in college courses. (4) Expanding the system of “postponing prosecution of moderate crime and switching to public service instead.”

With Taiwan’s economic growth and social development, non-profit organizations grow gradually. Non-profit organizations cover many types, including schools, foundations and religion groups. Among the past relative studies, most of them focus on management, fundraising strategy or marketing strategy. And most of them take the institution view as initial point and less takes subscriber view. So this study to take, tries donors view to proceed the research. Different characteristics of non-profit organizations may lead to greatly different outcomes, so this study decides to take the donors of charity institutions as it object. McCort regards subscribers’ donations as the important source for a non-profit organization to finish missions. Understanding the future behavior intention of subscribers will help institutions’ fundraising. To encourage people’s long-term donations, charity institutions must make people have positive impression on them. Berry and Parasuraman think better service quality is easier to maintain long-term relationships with customers. Boulding regards image as a factor to affect their behavior intentions. Sirdeshmukh thinks trust can lead customers’ long-term loyalty. Lapierre regards increase in customer value will result in customer loyalty. The points proposed by the above researchers are outcomes from buyer-seller relationships or from general consumer behavior. This research tries to transform these points to charity institutions to find out if we can get the same outcome. This study use LISREL as exploratory tool of cause and effect model and research hypotheses. After model fitting, the outcomes are as followings. First, There is no significantly positive relationship between service quality and trust but there is significantly positive relationship between service quality and subscriber’s perceived value. Second, significantly positive relationship exists between business image and trust. Third, personal characteristic has positive effect not only on trust but also on subscriber’ perceived value. Fourth, there are significantly positive relationships among trust, subscriber’ perceived value and behavioral intention. Fifth, service quality, image and personal characteristic have indirect effect on behavior intention by trust and subscriber’ perceived value. Besides, from the analysis of variance on the donor, this study gets the following outcomes. First, because of different religion beliefs, subscribers have different views of Tzuchi’s trust, image and future behavioral intention. Second, subscribers’ religions affect their intentions to become volunteers. Third, subscribers of different age have different intentions to become volunteers.

Previous empirical studies of the discussion of “customer value” and “relationship quality” mainly focused on various industry-level profit-making enterprises, but rarely concentrated in the context of non-profit organizations (NPOs). However, as competition getting intensified in business sectors, NOPs are also facing fierce contest in acquiring their financial funds. The major source of financial funds of NOPs is largely from donations of business and individual donors. How to generate a stable and long-term oriented relationship with these donors in order to keep the smooth operation and future development is especially crucial and meaningful for NPO managers. Likewise, the objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between customer value, relationship quality and donor’s behavioral intention based on the customer value and relationship marketing perspectives. We gained the cooperation of one NPO organization, a well-known children’s hearing foundation in Taiwan, and distribute welcome emails to their donors. After donors’ agreement, they click the hyperlink of our survey website within the welcome email and fill in related measurement items of our research model. A total of 1,383 welcome emails were submitted and 171 completed and valid questionnaires are obtained, thereby generating 12.36% valid response rate. Our study found that: (1) three types of customer value, namely “functional value”, “emotional value” and “social value”, are positively and significantly influence the relationship quality between foundation and donors; (2) relationship quality is positively associated with donor’s behavioral intention in terms of “monetary contributions”, “volunteer behavior” and “word of mouth”; (3) donor’s gender difference has a significant moderating effect on the relationship between functional value and relationship quality. For male donors, functional value has no significant influence on relationship quality, but for female donors, the functional value has significant and positive effect on relationship quality. Implications for practitioners and researchers and suggestions for future research are also addressed in this study.
