Full textO objetivo desta pesquisa consiste em analisar as relações de influência entre as práticas de colaboração proposta pela abordagem de Open Innovation, com aspectos da cultura organizacional e estrutura organizacional. Além disso, pretende-se analisar as influências da colaboração para inovação com desempenho operacional, desempenho inovador e desempenho de mercado. Foi adotada uma pesquisa quantitativa tipo survey, com uma amostra de 116 empresas pertencentes a setores considerados dinâmicos em termos tecnológicos. Dentre os resultados obtidos, há a indicação de que os clientes são a principal fonte de colaboração para a inovação das empresas, que empresas que recebem incentivos governamentais para inovação são menos propensas à utilização de prática de colaboração para inovação; há a preponderância em empresas de grande porte no desenvolvimento de inovações radicais; as relações de colaboração propostas pela abordagem da Open Innovation com clientes, fornecedores, funcionários, universidades e outros, exercem influências positivas tanto no desempenho inovador quanto no de mercado das firmas, porém não apresenta influência positiva no desempenho organizacional
The objective of this research is to analyze the relationships of influence between collaborative practices proposed by the Open Innovation approach, with aspects of organizational culture and organizational structure. In addition, we intend to analyze the influences of collaboration for innovations with operational performance, innovative performance and market performance. A quantitative survey was adopted, with a sample of 116 firms in sectors considered dynamics in terms of technology. Some of the results presented that customers are the main source of collaboration for innovation companies; those companies that receive govermnment incentives for innovation are less prone to the use of collaborative innovation practices; there is a preponderance of large companies in the development of radical innovations; collaborative relations proposed by Open Innovation approach with customers, suppliers, employees, universities and others, exert positive influences both innovative performance as the market firms, but has no positive influence on operating performance

Full textThis article deals with the controversy caused by the use of subliminal advertising, which seems to have some influence on consumer behavior. If so, subliminal advertising could transgress ethical and moral principles. This research intends to introduce and analize pertinent research on the ethical dilemma that would arise from using subliminal advertising and its influence on consumers’ decisions. First, the meaning of ethics and subliminal advertising will be conveyed accurately, this will be helpful for recognizing and understanding the presence of an ethical dilemma due to this kind of advertising, that is to say the core of this research. In addition, deontology-based advertising ethical value will be explained in order to show a possible link between professional practice and the nature of the ethical dilemma. Also, the influence of social, cultural, political and legal aspects on subliminal advertising will be addressed.

Full textof observations on the covariate transformation parameter in generalized linear models. Three numerical examples are presented to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed diagnostics. The need for transformation is also addressed in addition to assessing influence on the transformation parameter.A common method of choosing the link function in generalized linear models is to specify a parametric link family indexed by unknown parameters. The maximum likelihood estimates of such link parameters, however, often depend on one or several extreme observations. Diagnostics based on the local influence approach are derived to assess the sensitivity of the parametric link analysis. Two examples demonstrate that the proposed diagnostics can identify jointly influential observations on the link even when masking is present. The application of the diagnostics can also assist us in revising the link parameter and hence the form of the model.The portmanteau statistic is commonly used for testing goodness-of-fit of time series models. However, this lack of fit test may depend on one or several atypical observations in the series. We investigate the sensitivity of the portmanteau statistic in the presence of additive outliers. Diagnostics based on the local influence approach are developed to assess both local and global influence. Three practical examples demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed diagnostics.

Full textThe English pre-Raphaelite movement presents a variety of aspects which have features in common with French painting and poetry. The aim of this study is to bring forward and analyze some of these aspects: for example it tries to show the similarities and differences between the "realism" in the earliest pre-Raphaelite paintings and the French so-called "réalisme" as exemplified by Courbet and some of his contemporaries in their way of portraying the sacred, people at work, and social problems. It shows how avant-gardists such as Merimee, Lecoq de Boisbaudran and Charles Blanc one looked up to British reformists - who they thought were mainly pre-Raphaelites - in the teaching of the arts and the conception of museums. It then goes on to show how pre-Raphaelite works (painting and poetry) and ideas penetrated the French cultural environment through the exhibitions and the press. Burne-Jones's impact on the work of some symbolist poets and painters is also examined. The conclusion suggests a synthesis between various forms of pre-Raphaelitism (German, English and French)

Full textThe author examines the composition and literary proceedings of ancient hagiographic translations from Latin into old Norse, found in manuscripts dated from the beginning of the XIIIth century. The aim is to estimate whether they are exact translations, adaptations or recreated compilations from various sources. Then an attempt is made to demonstrate their influence on medieval Icelandic saga writing - which is still hardly recognized - first on the kings' sagas and bishops' sagas and further on the literary sagas, the sagas of Icelanders

Full textGerman-Polish normalization after World War II and specifically between 1961 and 1975 can be seen as a mainly ideational change through interaction in the triadic microsystem formed by both German states (FRG and GDR) and Poland in the macrosystem of the Cold War. Given the active role of non-state actors in those three states as well as on transnational platforms (Churches, NGO’s), this study tries to go farther than traditional diplomatic history. Thus it also includes an appreciation of those non-state actors’ influence on German-Polish relations out of a so called “nanosystemic” position. The main issues (among which: the Oder-Neisse line, the German question and European security) are addressed both chronologically and thematically. “Normalization” is defined as the result of shifts in the corporate actors’ identities and interests through intersystemic interaction – an constructivist explanation that could be extended to other case studies of German-East-European relations

Full textThe main purpose of this study was to examine own and social influence on perfectionism
with individual athletes. The participants (n= 96) of this study represented ten different sports
and their ages was between 15 and 44. An interview with four of the participant was
conducted. The instruments used for this study was the Positive and Negative Perfectionism
Scale (Terry-Short et al., 1995) and for the interviews questions was based on own and social
influence. The results showed that there was a relationship between positive perfectionism
and own influence, negative perfectionism and own influence, negative perfectionism and
social influence. The results did not show any gender difference regarding perfectionism and
own/social influence. The interview gave a deeper knowledge on positive perfectionism
together with own and social influence and negative perfectionism together with own and
social influence.

Full textEquine influenza is a serious, acute, highly contagious, respiratory disease, equine with characteristic clinical picture in the type of respiratory syndrome. This disease is caused by two subtypes of influenza A virus (EIV - equine influenza virus) - H7N7 (formerly known as type 1) and H3N8 (formerly known as type 2) from the family Orthomyxoviridae. The aim of the research was to compare different diagnostic methods for the diagnosis of influenza A virus in equine vaccine with different status and clinical findings. The experiment involved 61 throat. Conducted epidemiological surveys, clinical throat examined, analyzed the complete blood count, done HI, Directigen and RT-PCR test. The results showed the presence of both subtypes of the virus. Seropositive individuals are registrated in which the presence of an influenza virus antigen is confirmed, but without evidence of the presence of the influenza virus genome.

Full textThis dissertation offers a comparative study about the poetics of the French Symbolism and the Chinese poetry. The audacity and rebelliousness of a group of French poets in the second half of the 19th century revolutionized the poetic world with the creation of a new poetic language. This new poetic language was characterized by the symbolic suggestion and evocation, by a closer communication between the material and the spiritual, between the visible and the invisible. The French Symbolism started influencing China from 1915 and contributed to the development of modern Chinese poetry. In the meantime, it is interesting to discover some analogies between the Chinese poetical tradition and the French symbolist rhetoric, between the traditional form of symbolism and the modern form of symbolism. This comparative study focuses upon the encounter of French symbolist poetry and Chinese poetry, which developed independently until the early 20th century

Full textDuring the Korean War, Chinese captors of U.S. prisoners employed an unexpected and relatively successful compliance program. The Chinese, somewhat afraid of post-conflict repercussions for coercive torture, pursued techniques of social influence to secure behavioral compliance as well as lasting indoctrination. Although they failed in their primary objective to permanently alter beliefs and attitudes, their process illuminated the success in influencing individual behavior by interpreting and controlling aspects of group social dynamics. To cope with the daily flood of lifes information, humans have developed cognitive processes to quickly filter decision-making requests according to probable importance. If determined routine, the person allows learned decision-making shortcuts to guide his response. A range of psycho-social principles of human behavior underlie this automaticity and they can be deliberately triggered, or suppressed, to increase the likelihood of generating predictable behavioral responses in an individual. This thesis includes a broad survey of the major theoretical and practical foundations of psychology, propaganda, and marketing. It identifies the psycho-social principles that most influence a persons likelihood of complying with behavioral requests and examines a broad selection of social influence efforts for their presence. Finally, this thesis concludes by assessing the ability of influence principles to secure enduring effects.
