Liu, Li. "Human resource management and employee well-being in China". Thesis, Toulouse 1, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018TOU10071.
Context-specific and employee-centred have emerged as two central perspectives to advance HRM research. Context-specific inquires the contextual antecedents and boundary conditions of HRM; employee-centred underlines the incorporation of employee experience, particularly employee well-being into HRM-performance models. The two perspectives extend the classic HRM-performance model into a multilevel model channelled via multiple processes. The present thesis aims to study Chinese HRM by integrating the context-specific and employee-centred perspective. It primarily consists of three papers: a systematic review on the HRM-performance link in the China-based literature (Chapter 2), a construct clarification on employee wellbeing (Chapter 3), and an empirical study on the detrimental effect of guanxi HRM (Chapter 4). By synthesising 52 survey studies, the review (Chapter 2) shows that the Chinese literature is following the West to embrace the context-specific and employee-centred perspective, but the former is less extensively addressed than the latter. This review contributes to the literature by providing a research map on empirical Chinese HRM research focusing on the context-specific and employee-centred perspective. Building on extant well-being models, the second paper (Chapter 3) substantiates employee wellbeing as an equilibrium of multiple dimensions: hedonic and eudaimonic well-being, individual and social well-being, and positive and negative affect. The qualitative and quantitative analyses based on a survey of 544 Chinese employees support the propositions except for the distinction between individual and social well-being. Drawing on basic psychological needs theory, the third paper (Chapter 4) postulates that guanxi HRM creates a detrimental environment that would frustrate employees’ basic psychological needs, and it would undermine employee well-being in sequence; reflecting on the Chinese context, it proposes that the value of perseverance would moderate the process from need frustration to employee well-being. The results based on a survey of 321 Chinese employees support the hypotheses except for the moderating effect of perseverance when employee well-being is operationalised as emotional exhaustion. The thesis contributes to the literature by integrating the context-specific and employee-centred perspective to study HRM in China. It has generated a research map on HRM-performance link, clarified the conceptualisation of employee well-being, and delineated the detrimental effect of guanxi HRM. The exploration invites researchers to contribute to the global HRM research base by addressing the context and paying due attention to employee well-being in China

In contrast to the traditional mindset (TMS)-the conscious awareness, controlled mental processes, and analytical-logical manipulation of symbols-an alternative mindset (AMS) is viewed as the pre-conscious mental processes (i.e. associative, imaginative, intuitive) and holistic thinking (Davis- Floyd and Arvidson, 1997; Dane and Pratt, 2007; Hodgkinson et al 2009). Since Plato, the West has considered TMS as the hallmark of intelligence and simply of any cognition. Yet, in recent decades various research explored complementary and/or alternative to analytical-logical cognition mental systems (eg., Damasio, 1994; Nisbett & al., 2001; Wagner & Sternberg, 1985). The alternative mindset-an array of such systems-was primarily explored for its individual benefits, while our research focuses on organizational benefits. To do this, we used a bi-weekly meditative practice to induce an AMS in organizational actors. We hypothesized that following the shift from TMS to AMS, organizational actors will benefit from enhanced creative production and well-being. Empirical experiments were conducted with 144 self- selected participants within two organizations-a business and a municipal government-in Canada (measuring levels of well-being and creativity) and one in France-a business school administration-(measuring levels of well-being), consisting of eight bi-weekly 20 minute sessions of guided meditation (Fredrickson et al. 2008, Oz et al. 2009, Sears & Kraus 2009; for the control group a "placebo" technique of relaxation was used; Rausch et al., 2006)

Despite the growth of studies on the link between indoor work environment quality and employee productivity, the impacts of connectedness to nature within offices on employee well-being, satisfaction, and productivity remain less studied. The objective of the study is to conduct a scoping review of available research published between 2015 and 2020 on the impacts of biophilia and connectedness to nature on employee productivity and well-being as well as corporate strategies. The analysis of the studies shows that more and more companies are highlighting the integration of natural elements in the workspace as well as their benefits in terms of psychological connection and employee behaviors. In addition, there are differences in the spatial quality of the workspace, particularly between traditional green offices and coworking offices. This study highlights the need for companies to develop natural outdoor workspaces in addition to traditional green offices. This work also highlights the practical implications of the impacts of employee connection to nature for occupants, green office designers, and managers alike. The discussion also highlights the impact of the pandemic crisis on workspace design, ecology, and corporate budgets.
Rind, Asad Ali. "Essays on peer effects in corporate finance". Thesis, Paris Est, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018PESC0020.
This thesis explores the peer effects in corporate finance. The first chapter provides a review of literature on the theories and models that motivate peer effects and conformity behavior. Specifically, we emphasize on what precisely is meant by peer effects, how existing studies in the literature identify peer effects and its implications on human behavior. Next, we summarize the most critical theories in finance literature that encourage peer effects and the impact of peer behavior on firm financial policies. Last but not least, we discuss the main challenges in measuring peer effects and conclude the chapter by highlighting potential areas of future work in this field. The next chapters empirically examine these peer effects in three important, yet not explored areas of finance in the context of the US market. These include corporate misbehavior, employee welfare, and, research and development.The second chapter examines the presence of peer effects in corporate misbehavior. Using a sample of 3,034 US-listed firms covering 1999‒2014, we show that firms headquartered in areas with the higher white-collar fraud have a higher probability of corporate misbehavior, suggesting that area level social interaction encourages corporate misconduct. Additional analyses show that these peer effects prevail in distressed firms while we do not find such evidence for non-distressed firms. We also find that these peer effects are mainly present in areas with a high crime rate, suggesting that the high levels of local criminality are likely to favor a culture of fraud in these areas.The third chapter explores the peer effects in the firm’s employee welfare policies. We show that peer firms play a significant role in defining employee welfare policies of a firm. Using US panel data for a sample of 9,062 firm-year observations from 1996 to 2013, we find that firm’s employee welfare decisions are responses to their peers’ employee welfare policies. This impact is much higher than any other peer characteristics. Moreover, our additional analysis shows that this behavior is prevalent in followers, who mimic the behavior of leaders but we do not find any such relationship for industry leaders.The fourth and last chapter of the thesis empirically investigates firm peer effects in research and development (R&D) policies. We show that firms do not make their R&D decisions in isolation and peer firms play an essential role in defining the R&D intensity of a given firm. Using US panel data for a sample of 54,393 firm-year observations from 1991 to 2015, we find that firm’s R&D decisions are responses to their peers’ R&D policies. Further, we find that R&D peer effects are significant only in the presence of strong product market competition, while these results do not hold for markets with lower product market competition
Inagnibomoua, Kader Kane. "L'essor des nouvelles technologies de l'information et de la communication au Gabon : quelles incidences perçues sur l'organisation du travail et la santé des employés?" Thesis, Paris 10, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA100031/document.
This doctoral thesis aims to assess the consequences of the integration of the new information technology and communication media (NITC) on the workforce in Gabon, concerning both the organisational field and the field of workforce health. More precisely, the objective of the current thesis focuses on three aspects. The first aspect concerns the factors which are bound to facilitate the use of NITC by the employees. The second aspect assesses the changes triggered by the use of NITC in the organisation of the employees’ work. Last but not least, the last aspect assesses the impact of NITC on the physical and psychological health of the employees. A questionnaire was applied on a sample of 136 employees who worked in the banking system in Gabon. The designed tool is structured in four parts: (A) an identification part comprising the socio-demographic variables (age, sex, marital status) and the socio-organisational ones (seniority, daily length of use and frequency of use of the NITC); (B) the Brangier and Hammes scale (2007), which measures the relation man-work-organisation starting from the model of symbiosis; (C) a 30-item questionnaire designed according to the research needs, based on the analysis of the categorial-thematic content of the discourses provided by employees in Gabon while describing their daily work routine. It focuses on the influence of NITC on the organisation of work (efficiency in work, communication practises, autonomy, information overload and professional isolation); (D) a questionnaire built in the same manner as the previous one, exploring the perceived connections between NITC and health at the workplace (physical issues, professional stress and professional well-being at work). Globally, the obtained results show that the connections that the employees in Gabon have with the NITC are strongly correlated with the way in which they use them. However, they do not indicate any connection between the use of NITC inside the organisations in Gabon and the organisation of work. Moreover, these results show that on the one hand the NITC are perceived as the source of physical health issues (particularly musculoskeletal issues) and psychological issues (particularly professional stress), but on the other hand they are also perceived as causing a certain psychological well-being (particularly when it comes to the working environment and the involvement in work/self-accomplishment). Finally, our work highlights two mediations: the sharing technologies (vs. assistive technologies) constitute a total mediator of the relation between the perception of the symbiosis between man-work-organisation and the perceived occurrence of the TMS (vs. depression). Our research also has an applicative dimension on short-term, but it opens the gate towards future research patterns aiming to improve the integration and development of NITC in Gabon on mid-term
Abou, Hamad Jeniffer. "L'influence de la perception de l'espace de travail sur les perceptions du bien-être et de la performance individuelle du salarié au travail : le cas de l'open space". Thesis, Paris 1, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA010036.
In recent years, workspaces have continued to change, depending on the type of organization or work, but mostly due to globalization, environmental concerns and information and communication technologies. Space is inherent to any management situation, it is important to detect its influence on the actors. Work gradually loses its notion of self-fulfillment, and companies today face an ill-being of employees. However, the work is not confined to stress or psycho social problems, but it can be a self-fulfillment. Consequently, we ask ourselves to what extent the perception of the workspace, particularly the open plan office, influences perceptions of well-being at work and job performance. We have chosen a mixed research methodology. This strategy allows us to simultaneously mobilize an exploratory qualitative approach and quantitative approach. Our research tends to show a correlation between the perception of the workspace and perceptions of well-being and job performance. If there is a significant relationship between the perception of the work space and the perception of well-being at work and between the perception of well-being and job performance, it is not the case between the perception of space and job performance. However, we wonder if the well-being of the employee may be a mediator of the relation between workspace and job performance
Madzigon, Olga. "Etude comparative des discours et des pratiques de la RSE à travers la communication interne, la culture d'entreprise et le management au prisme de la culture nationale en France et en Russie en temps de crise". Electronic Thesis or Diss., Université Côte d'Azur, 2022. http://theses.univ-cotedazur.fr/2022COAZ2026.
In this study we present an analysis of the discourse and practices of Corporate SocialResponsibility (CSR), of the tools for steering and evaluating CSR through management,corporate culture and internal communication of French and Russian companies. This work aims to shed light on new social issues, and experiences from the field to broaden prevention towards approaches more oriented towards "quality of life at work" and the well-being of employees at work. The secondary objective is to evolve the impact of the health crisis, telework on the practices and discourses of CSR, to inventory the social representations of CSR in France and Russia.Is there a new way of working and integrating social objectives into the heart of the business model? How do corporate culture and CSR intersect? Are the new socially responsible practices embodied in the corporate culture and by what means? Does the corporate culture adapt to the requirements and standards of these practices or, on the contrary, are the standards and discourse of CSR shaped by the values, beliefs and practices of the corporate culture? As long as CSR is a practice recently adopted by companies, we analyze how company employees interpret CSR: as an ecological, environmental or social responsibility of the company? Are CSR practices and discourses efficient enough to solve social problems of the company's actors, according to the employees' opinion? In order to answer the question of our study, we conducted a qualitative analysis of ten reports on the extra-financial performance of companies in France and ten reports in Russia. We conducted six case studies: analysis of CSR, corporate culture, internal communication and management of three Russian and three French companies. We also administered two questionnaires and conducted thirty semi-structured interviews with top management and professionals in the sphere of CSR

Well-being and ill-being are topical themes, whether in the mainstream media or in managerial literature. The number of debates on ill-being at work has begun to grow in recent years, reaching up to National Assembly level alongside the accumulation of public reports on the theme of ill-being. This is concrete proof of the importance of this problem and the progressive involvement of the State in its resolution (CAS, 2009, Copé et al, 2010, Dériot, 2010, Lachmann, et al, 2010). Acknowledging the stress and suffering within the workplace today, and wanting to improve the well-being of employees, is certainly not an imaginary issue.However, even if there is a wealth of literature available regarding unhappiness at work, it remains difficult to define what well-being at work actually is (Richard, 2012).Therefore, the ambition of this research paper is to study in the most complete way possible, what well-being and ill-being at work really means, as well as the links between them. The aim of this is to propose the most feasibly comprehensive research model, adapted to the current business-environment context. To do this, there are two qualitative studies that have been undertaken, one with nurses, using the method of immersion and a second study conducted with employees and public sector workers within the Paris region.A second phase consists of quantitative studies. Four studies were conducted; the first one (n = 317) was based on several companies, a second one (n = 350) was specific to executives in the context of organisational change, a third study related to public sector workers in particular areas (n = 1065) and the final study was based on a specific local authority (n = 1374).Therefore, this thesis contributes to a better understanding of the concept of well-being at work and serves to highlight the different models and theories surrounding the two concepts, while emphasising the specific characteristics of both well-being and ill-being at work. This will allow us to develop different managerial recommendations to improve well-being at work, while making it easier for researchers to explore different research avenues

This thesis appreciates the consequences of fixed and flexible exchange rate regimes on the welfare of the private sector in a framework developped by the new classical macroeconomics in an open economy. The first part presents the main characteristics of this school and introduces the situation of neutrality of exchange rate arrangements in a simple general equilibrium lodel describing a pure barter exchange economy with incomplete financial markets. The second part evaluates the robutness of this result in a monetary economy. The last part uses this result as an benchmark to show that imperfections restore a hierarchy between fixed and flexible rates as long as welfare is concerned

Jumani, Imran Ahmad. "The effects of human resource management practiceson employee work-life interference and its outcomes". Electronic Thesis or Diss., Rennes 1, 2022. http://www.theses.fr/2022REN1G013.
This research examines the effects of High-Performance Human Resource Practices (HPHRP) and Family-Friendly Work Practices (FFWP) on work-life interferences, well-being, and intention to leave the job. In addition, we examine the moderating influence of support from managers, family, and friends. Our problem statement is: how do FFWP and HPHRP influence the work-life interference and its outcomes, i.e., the well-being of employees in the workplace and their intention to leave the job? The research was conducted in both public and private sector banks in Pakistan. Data collection (322 respondents; 82.6% male, 17.4% female) of bank employees working in Pakistan (employees, middle and top-level management) was gathered through an online questionnaire. The partial least square (PLS-SEM) approach is employed to assess the research model.The results show that the two HRM practices studied - HPHRP and FFWP - have a significant positive effect on work-life interference. FFWP is significantly associated with turnover intention, but not with employee well-being. In contrast, HPHRP is significantly associated with employee well-being, but not with turnover intention. Managers’ support and support from family and friends act as moderators. We also show that if the absence of FFWP does not affect male employees’ intention to leave the job (IJT), this absence significantly increase female employees’ IJT. These results help to understand which management practices can support sustainable performances for women

Farmers are part of a socio-professional category that expresses some form of unease due to multiple pressures and changes in their profession. Our approach focuses on interindividual differences contributing to adaptation and resistance, in a particularly threatening context, or favoring the worsening of a state of psychological suffering. To this end, we focus on the concept of resources and in particular on the Conservation of Resources theory (Hobfoll, 1989). This theory allows us to understand which are the material, energy, personal characteristics and conditions resources and among them, which gains are the most protective and which losses are the most destructive of the farmers' health.To test our hypotheses, this research is based on a two-stage quantitative and longitudinal measurement method for a cohort of Lorraine (France northeastern region) farmers. Thus, health is assessed in terms of well-being (happiness, vigor, life satisfaction, perceived health) and ill-being (stress, burnout, musculoskeletal pain). Our results obtained by using structural models (Partial Least Square Path Modeling) confirm the preponderance of the deleterious effects of resources’ losses on health at T1, conversely, and to a lesser extent, that the resources’ gains protect it. On the other hand, the change in health at T2 is predicted only by resource erosion. Our results underline the need to prevent the loss of personal and conditions resources and then energy to preserve farmers’ health

This thesis aims to contribute to recent debates on the potential benefits of trade openness among African countries. This, by addressing the triptych regional trade agreements, welfare and conflict.The African continent is currently facing two major governance challenges: regional integration and the management of armed conflicts. Indeed, the trade performance of African countries remains marginal compared to the rest of the world. This is despite the different trade policies implemented since the 1970s (import substitution policy, North-South regional agreement, etc.). Among these trade policies, African governments have decided to focus on regional agreements in order to increase trade among member countries. Have these agreements had the expected effect ? To what extent ?If we refer to popular belief, the answer seems to be no. However, this answer ignores the potential political benefits of trade openness. As such, the work presented here first examines the effect of African regional agreements on trade and welfare. This is done using the latest developments in international trade theory and the best techniques for estimating gravity equations. Second, we analyze both theoretically and empirically the effect of increased trade on the probability of a civil war occurring. The results obtained allow us to conclude, on the one hand, that nearly half of the trade between members of trade agreements in Africa would not have been possible without the signing of the RTAs. On the other hand, both domestic and international trade, reduces the risk of civil conflict in Africa

This thesis deals with the place of private health insurance in the overall health insurance scheme in France, focusing on social inequalities and on solidarity between healthy individuals and sick patients. It particular, it addresses the role of private health insurance on access to health care, mutualization of health expenditure, and welfare. The results of this thesis reveal the key role of private health insurance to access to care postponed over time for financial reasons. However, our results also show that generalizing complementary health insurance in the current health insurance scheme does not allow pursuing equity goals nor increasing welfare. They finally reveal that the mutualization induced by private health insurance appears relatively weak, compared to the one induced by public health insurance. They therefore encourage a change in the role of private health insurance in funding medical care

Since the quality procedures are entered into the world of the hospital imposing building standards and the search for profitability, social logic has given way to economic logic. Rationalization of labor has become caregivers by implementing these standards, not taking into account the considerations of the psychological and physical activity providers, where the effects on their health and the manifestations of suffering at work. It is in the context that addressed occupational health officers not in terms of the reduction of suffering at work but in the development of psychological well-being. We propose to study how to build the psychological well-being at work through the experiences of caregivers in the hospital is to say how it is an object representations which relate to professional cognitive, emotional memories related to experiences and symbolized. In the light of social psychology and labor contributions of positive psychology and the theory of self-analysis of data from non-directive interviews with caregivers has allowed us to identify the characteristics of concept. Related to the interaction between the individual and the work environment on the one hand, and related to the individual on the other hand, these characteristics have allowed us to consider actions for the development of psychological well-being at work both the individual and organizational

Corporate entrepreneurship (CE) is an entrepreneurial process that involves one or more individuals – corporate entrepreneurs – working with or within an existing organisation, with the aim of generating inner renewal or innovation. Few studies deal with the impacts of CE processes at the individual level. In order to improve organisational performance, we asked the following question : What are the impacts of a CE experience, conducted within large French firms (Insee, 2019), on the dimensions of corporate entrepreneurs’ occupational well-being (Biétry et Creusier, 2013)? To answer this research question, we have conducted qualitative research and its methods. We interviewed 70 corporate entrepreneurs and analysed 15 CE devices into 12 large French firms. The results show that corporate entrepreneurs’ occupational well-being is impacted differently depending on the context in which they are involved, but also according to two moderating factors, which are (1) the management of CE devices and (2) the intrinsic characteristics of corporate entrepreneurs. Then, this research work has also highlighted (3) the difficulty for internal corporate entrepreneurs to reintegrate the organisation after this experience. The management of the exit from CE processes is a major challenge for the organisation. The psychological approach of this thesis work allows us to answer to the research question, and opens research perspectives in management and, especially in human resources management

A number of qualitative and quantitative surveye have allowed the author to analyse the contents and the structure of what appears in the from of a system (complex) of multifaceted hierarchical social representations (well-being in one's home, thermic confort in winter or summer). This study puts into play and collates analytical techniques of the numerous data (analyses of similarity, factorial and discriminant analyses. . . ). A certain number of methodological contributions will be proposed (index of centrality c, cohesice force. . . ). The results substantiate the hypotheses. On one hand wa have found a relationship of reciprocity between the representation of thermic comfort in winter, well-being in one's home, and consumer habits in heating (measured). On the other hand, the operative proximity of the representation of wintertime thermic comfort, as concerns consumption of heat, entails a predictive capacity of the latter which is superior to that of one's comfort in his home. In short the social representation of well-being at home would seem to be the representation of "the mother" which guarantees the essential aspect of cohesion and coherence of the representational whole, as well as the principal point of the common foundation of the contents

Subjective well-being may be defined as a hedonic approach of happiness referring to an overall evaluation of individual’s life integrating both cognitive and affective components. Although that concept has been the focus of a considerable scientific literature, few research explored explicitly its relationships with career decision-making process. Our literature review highlighted the opposition between bottom-up and top-down approaches in the study of the relationships between these two variables making particularly complex to determine the causal direction. Thus, the purpose of this thesis was to bring a better understanding on the relationships between subjective well-being and career indecision. Also, in order to test the role of individual and contextual characteristics, we conducted a cross-cultural comparison which include Korean, US, and French college students. The first part of our results was devoted to explore the psychometric properties of several instruments used in the different countries while the second part was more focused on the analysis of the relationships between subjective well-being and career indecision. A series of three studies were conducted in each target country for examining successively the moderator role of individual characteristics, personality traits, and psychological well-being. Overall, results showed that subjective well-being was significantly associated with career indecision across samples despite several moderator effects were observed. Based on our literature review and results, we developed a theoretical model integrating subjective well-being and career indecision while arguing distinctive mechanisms in bottom-up and top-down approaches. The implications of those results toward a holistic approach of individual counseling are discussed in both research and practical directions

Medical health search wellbeing thanks to a dietetics, an energetics, a responsibility to be balanced, effective, to be integrated. Medical health was historically constituted in opposition with certain philosophies. The stoicians oppose a will of the present event at the fear of the future accident of the Hippocratique dietetics. The "great health" of Nietzsche which opposes an affirmative Will to power to an energetic thought distressed by degradation. The "philosophical vitality" of Deleuze sees an intense and free life in the "Body without organs" against the cybernetic integration of interdependent organisms. Medicine protects a body which is a machine of accidents. This body is plunged in the oppressing time of wear. Its life is undermined by an omnipresent death which nibbles it and closes it. Philosophies of the "great health" think a body which is constituted through experiments. It lives in an immediate, innocent and infinite time. Death is nothing for him, except a self-destruction which is the meaning of life

This thesis exploits quasi-natural experiments, both historical and contemporary, to provide causal evidence on broad questions at the frontier of the development and political economy literature. In particular, it delves into the long-run effects of emigration, the formation of identities and political preferences, and the long-term impacts of school segregation. The first chapter examines the consequences of emigration for human capital accumulation at origin, taking as a laboratory the Galician diaspora formed at the beginning of the XXth century. Leveraging data spanning over one hundred years, it provides the first evidence of a positive impact of emigration in the communities of origin across several generations. The second chapter investigates whether the emotional trigger of sports can influence identity and political preferences. Focusing on Catalonia and Football Club Barcelona (FCB) as an ideal setting, I show empirically that FCB performance is directly linked with feelings of Catalan identity and support for secession. Furthermore, I explore the mechanisms behind this connection and its potential implications for electoral results. The third chapter takes advantage of a major reform under the Pinochet’s dictatorship, which introduced a system of school vouchers, to analyze the long-term effects of school segregation on subjective well-being. The findings show that the reform had unintended consequences, hurting children from poorer family backgrounds who today, more than 30 years later, have significantly lower levels of life satisfaction

Sedentary behaviors are associated with a higher risk of mortality as well as deteriorated metabolic health. Interruption of sedentary behavior appears to have beneficial effects on health and well-being of people. Few studies have examined the effects of alternatives to sitting on well-being of employees at work. Using semi-experimental protocol, the potential of active meetings on ergocycle have been quantified and evaluated with 30 employees of Université Laval. The results showed that it is possible to perform an active meeting of 60 minutes at an intensity varying between low and moderate without reducing the quality of work. Active meetings seem to have the potential to reduce perceived stress during cognitive effort, without compromising productivity. In our opinion, it would be in the interest of public health to focus more on interventions that reduce sedentary behavior in workplace.

Improving dairy cows’ welfare is a major challenge in response to citizen concerns. The present thesis aimed to identify (i) major welfare problems, (ii) which farm characteristics are associated with the impairment of welfare and (iii) which factors are associated with the impairment of human-animal relationships. We conducted an epidemiological survey and used the Welfare Quality R protocol to assess dairy cows’ welfare. In general, prevalence of lameness was low and cows had opportunities to walk. The absence of hunger and thirst and the expression of species-specific behaviors were achieved but variable between farms. Resting comfort, skin injuries, health, social behavior, cows’ emotional state and human-animal relationships were affected and variable. Disbudding was often performed without pain relief. The main risk indicators of poor cow welfare were farm location (for thirst), breed (hunger, social behavior), housing (resting comfort and skin injuries), the interaction housing-breed (emotional state) and location-milking system (expression of species-specific behaviors). Action plans should be designed according to farm types. The quality of the human-animal relationship was not associated with farm main characteristics, but to calving conditions, farmers’ attitudes and cows’ social behavior. In addition, we observed large variations between-cows in their responses to humans, suggesting that individual behavioral traits of cows play a major role
Canelas, Carla. "Bien-être en Amérique latine : une analyse micro-économétrique". Thesis, Paris 1, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA010002.
The works on this thesis go beyond traditional concepts of welfare, such as income, consumption, and wealth, and include into the analysis time use, discrimination, power relations inside the households, equality of opportunities, and segregation in the labor markets. ln Part 1 of this work, we base our measure of welfare on both a monetary and a time dimensions, including domestic production in the Beckarian sense into the analysis. From a given allocation of monetary and time resources, we calculate consumer's reactions to changes in monetary prices of different commodity groups. We complete the analysis with the calculation of utility changes given the introduction of a tax in the aggregated food group. Part Il of this work is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of labour market outcomes. The third chapter of the thesis studies the discrimination suffered by women and ethnic minorities in Bolivia, Ecuador, and Guatemala by means of quantile decomposition techniques. We complete the analysis with the study of the intra-household allocation of time determinants to paid and unpaid work. Finally, the last chapter focuses on the influence of the minimum wage in shaping the workers's wage distribution and its impact on employment rate in the formai and informai sectors of the economy. The high level of noncompliance, and the important share of informai workers cali for new policies and institutions concerned with the enforcement of labor regulations, and the design of social securitv systems and laws that protect informai workers

Workplace well-being and malaise are current concepts that overlap many models and theories from various disciplines and epistemologies. The relevance of these models can be questioned in order to understand the relationship to work of intellectual professions, of expertise activities or knowledge workers.Starting from a synthesis of existing literature on these topics, this thesis studies the relationship to work for natural sciences laboratory occupations. This work is a qualitative, comprehensive and interpretative approach, based on a Commissariat à l’Énergie Atomique et aux Énergies Alternatives (CEA) four laboratories embedded and cross-cases studies.This research shows that different statuses present in the laboratories share the same commitment and well-being drivers but have different malaise factors. In addition, they all have some kind of “ambiguous relationship with work”, simultaneous combination of well-being and malaise, which requires to rethink the relationship between well-being and malaise at work
Barlet, Aline. "Le confort dans le milieu scolaire". Paris 10, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA100086.
This research aims to define comfort, a complicated matter which has never been fully studied till today. Comfort can be defined from various components, i. E. Social atmosphere and physical environment. For collegians, social atmosphere has a biggest importance. So, in order they feel well, social atmosphere has to be particularly satisfying. Moreover, social atmosphere has an impact on the way children feel their physical environment. So, if social atmosphere is good, physical environment is satisfying and reciprocal. By another way, characteristics of environment have an impact as regards physical comfort in the structure of a general definition of this concept. When physical environment is satisfying, physical comfort is unknown. On the opposite, if physical components are not satisfying, physical comfort becomes important for them. Nevertheless, children have some requests in matter of physical environment, concerning more particularly functional aspect of school buildings. Thus, they give us an homogeneous and durable definition of the notion of comfort

This study aims at 1. Improving the understanding of the factors involved in the horse's reactions towards humans by considering, among others, their welfare state and 2. At identifying reliable indicators of the horses' welfare state based on multidimensional approach. Our results show that these reactions depend on the horses' global perception of humans, cues emitted by humans (attentional state) and the animals' welfare state. In a second part, we realized a study with multi-dimensional approaches on the indicators of the horses' welfare, by comparing health-related, physiological, behavioural and postural measures. Our results allow us to identify a flattest posture for horses from riding schools, a fixed posture in the box, characterized by a flat neck and a decreased reactivity, and a backward usual ear position linked with altered welfare. On the physiological side, we observed lower cortisol levels for horses with altered welfare. Overall, this work contributes to a better understanding of the factors involved in horses' reactions towards humans and put the emphasis on reliable indicators of the horse's welfare
Hotte, Rozenn. "Mariage et bien-être de l'épouse en Afrique de l'Ouest". Thesis, Paris Sciences et Lettres (ComUE), 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019PSLEH001.
In West Africa, marriage is a major social institution. In Senegal, for example, in 2006, nearly 90% of women over 25 years of age were once married. It represents also a major disruption the daily life, especially for the bride, who in most cases leaves the household in which she grew up. Another important feature of marriage in West Africa is that it involves a large set of actors: not only the couple but also their parents and extended family. The ceremony is also characterized by important financial exchanges, between different people: the bride's, groom's and neighbours' families. These stylized facts can be examined in terms of their relationship to women's well-being within their households. The objective of this thesis is to add to the study of the subject.In the first chapter, we consider whether parents have incentives to marry their children to a member of the kin group in order to better insure against adverse idiosyncratic income shocks.Exploiting original panel data from a household survey collected in Senegal in 2006/2007 and 2011/2012, we find that daughters' within-kin-group marriage helps their parents' household to better smooth food consumption when a parent has fallen ill.This better smoothing is notably driven by the fact that households having married a daughter within the kin group receive relatively more transfers. Our results indicate that parents' demand for insurance can explain part of their demand for marrying within the kin group their daughter. They extend the literature on inter-linkages between marriage decisions and demand for insurance. The second chapter examines the impact of an education policy on women's well-being in Benin. Taking advantage of a sharp increase in school constructions in the 1990s in this country, we assess the causal impact of a primary education program on primary school attendance, age at marriage and tolerance of intimate partner violence. Using a double difference method, along with a regression kink design, we find that the program increased the probability to attend primary school in rural areas. The policy also decreased the probability to find wife beating tolerable. We show that, in this context, the benefits of girls' education have percolated down to women's well-being beyond the initial goal of the policy. In the third chapter, we investigate the relationship between the bride price and the well-being of the wife in her household. We take into account, the simultaneous existence of other marriage payments, flowing in different directions between the stakeholder, that is largely ignored. To assess the impacts of these marital transferson the women's well-being in Senegal, we use a unique survey that enquires separately about the different marriage payments. We highlight the strength of the link between what is given to the bride herself and her welfare, contrary to the looseness of the link with what is given to the family
Broi, Antonin. "Recherches sur la mesure du bien-être et le welfarisme". Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020SORUL104.
This dissertation deals with several topics around well-being measurement and welfarism, mostly in ethics, philosophy of mind and philosophy of science. The concept of well-being plays a crucial role in a variety of moral theories, including welfarist theories. This raises a series of questions about its measurement, both in its metaphysical and epistemological aspects. Since well-being has to be aggregated in order to determine the level of collective well-being, it must have some quantitative properties. However, full measurability requires to have an epistemic access to these quantitative properties. We address these epistemological questions from two complementary perspectives. First, we look at the kind of epistemic access that a subject has to the affective component of well-being, namely pleasure and displeasure. Second, we explore some methodological issues related to the measurement of collective wellbeing when a welfarist theory is put in practice

Le but de ce travail était d’identifier les facteurs mis en jeu, en particulier comportementaux, dans les problèmes de fertilité constatés chez la jument domestique. Dans une première partie, nous nous sommes intéressés à l’effet de certains facteurs liés à l’individu tels que l’âge, statut de reproduction et père de la jument ains que l’étalon de saillie. Les résultats de cette analyse ont confirmé les effets âge, statut de reproduction et étalon de saillie observés chez d’autres races de chevaux mais ont aussi permis de mettre en évidence pour la première fois l’effet de l’origine paternelle de la jument sur sa fertilité. Une étude préliminaire du comportement de poulinières maintenues en forte densité dans des paddocks dénudés a révélé des répertoires comportementaux et des budgets temps inhabituels par rapport à ceux observés à l’état naturel. Afin d’évaluer ces perturbations comportementales et de rechercher leurs causes possibles, nous avons procédé à l’expérimentation. Nous avons donc testé l’effet de promouvoir un comportement alimentaire naturel sur le bien-être et la reproduction des juments. Cette expérience a montré des effets significatifs du traitement sur le comportement social, le répertoire comportemental et le budget temps des juments mais aussi sur leurs performances de reproduction (des taux de conception meilleurs et une faible fréquence de troubles du cycle ovarien). Dans une troisième étape de ce travail, nous nous sommes intéressés au lien entre les stéréotypies, considérées comme étant des indicateurs de stress chronique, en réponse à des conditions environnementales défavorables et les performances de reproduction des juments. Nos résultats ont révélé, pour la première fois, un succès reproducteur plus faible chez les juments montrant une activité stéréotypique

Zhang, Mohua. "Consommation, territoire d'origine de la marque et bien-être du consommateur". Thesis, Université Grenoble Alpes (ComUE), 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016GREAG002/document.
This thesis consists of two main topics: the impact of brand territory of origin (TOO) on consumer behaviour, and the impact of conspicuous consumption on consumer subjective well-being (SWB).On one side, this thesis highlights the importance of territory associations for consumers’ perception of product authenticity and empirically tests the chain of effects, from a TOO association to perceived authenticity to consumers’ self–brand connections. An experimental method and a partial least square (PLS) approach were adopted to test hypotheses with 665 Chinese consumers. Results demonstrate that TOO exerts a positive impact on perceived product authenticity, which improves consumers’ self–brand connections. In addition, compared with country of origin (COO), TOO has a unique positive impact on perceived authenticity and a direct positive effect on consumers’ self–brand connections. Also, the positive impact of TOO on perceived authenticity is enhanced by consumers’ familiarity with the TOO and congruence between the product category and TOO. But only one outcome of TOO (perceived authenticity) and one product category (lavender soap) have been considered in this study. Noting the diminishing relevance of COO associations, this study demonstrates that territory of origin is an appealing alternative strategy for strengthening brand equity.On the other side, despite the growing importance of conspicuous consumption in all parts of the world, little research focuses on the effect of conspicuous consumption on consumer SWB, and when this is the case, the results are controversial. We propose and test a bi-motive hypothesis whereby the valence of the effect of conspicuous consumption on consumer SWB depends on whether the conspicuous object is used as self-signaling conspicuous consumption or other-signaling conspicuous consumption. The results of three studies demonstrate that the self-signaling conspicuous consumer has a significantly higher level of SWB than the other-signaling conspicuous consumer. Furthermore, consumer materialism enhances the negative relationship between other-signaling conspicuous consumption and consumer SWB

We evaluate the distributive effects of income taxation by means of its impact on the social welfare and on the inequality of incomes. Three main original results are derived, namely : 1 - the concept of absolute lorenz dominance is introduced and it is shown to generate an unambiguous pairwise ranking when the absolute lorenz curves of the distributions do not cross. Absolute lorenz domi- nance is contrasted with relative lorenz dominance and it is empirically shown to exhibit a wider degree of comparability. 2 - minimally progressive schemes in the sense of fei (1981) are characterized by means of their redistributive effects : if tax liability is increasing with income, then, whatever the pre-tax distribution, the post-tax distribution dominates the pre-tax one in the absolu- te lorenz sense, and conversely. 3 - convex taxation is characterized by means of a simple and intuitively appealing welfare monotonicity property : if the margi- nal tax-rate is increasing with income, then, whatever the pre-tax distribution, a welfare improvement in the pre-tax distribution results in a welfare improvement in the post-tax distribution, and conversely

This research focuses on the construction and implementation of a serendipian approach to youth unemployment. The aim of this approach is to help them to find and keep a job while addressing this transition in a more serene way. We split our analysis in two parts. The first part of this thesis work focuses on self-perception and self-representation of NEETs - Neither in Employment nor Education and Training. The challenge here is to better understand the NEETs population. This first part consists of two studies: - Study 1 biographical interview (N = 28): the objective of this first study is to better understand the course of NEETs by collecting the successions of events that constitute the path of the person and the way in which she or he experienced it. - Study 2 SR - social representation (N = 137): with an exploratory approach, the objective of this study isto describe the SRs of the NEETs and of a control group made up of people who work, who study or who are in training. The second objective is then to compare these RS. The second part focuses on how to increase the employability of NEETs. Three studies compose this part: - Study 3 semi-directive interview with recruiters (N = 11): the aim here is to see to what extent the pseudo-serendipian skills are used and perceived in the recruiting sphere by the recruiters themselves. We also asked them about their perception of NEETs. - Study 4a and 4b effectiveness and impact of pseudo-serendipity skills training (N = 147): first, we tested the training with students. We offered this training to NEETs. The objective here is to study the impact of pseudo-serendipian skills training on the well-being and employability of these young people

Psychological health of older people is now a major concern. This thesis is part of cross-cultural perspective in two countries : Gabon and France. It aims to examine the determinants of the psychological well-being of Gabonese and French older people through individual factors (for example, personality and motivation), environmental factors (forexample, culture and social relations) and how the elderly person interacts with their socialenvironment. The Self-Determination Theory (Deci and Ryan, 2002) served as support, as itexplains how personal goals and environmental factors can influence satisfaction of basicpsychological needs and personal well-being, regardless of their age.The results in studies 1 and 2 indicated that psychological well-being among Gaboneseand French older people is determined by personality dimensions, relationships with others(perceived social support and compassionate love) and extrinsic motivation. In Study 3, wevalidated a scale for measuring the satisfaction of psychological needs in the elderly. Finally, the results of Study 4 indicated that psychological well-being is influenced by culture and the satisfaction of basic psychological needs. However, effects of individualism and collectivismseem more significant among Gabonese older people.Overall, these results are in line with previous studies. It bring additional knowledge regarding the importance of relationships with others on older people psychological wellbeing.Moreover, our results support the self-determination theory perspective concerning the universality of the psychological needs of autonomy, competence and relatedness

The ageing process exposes the fragility and the psycho-social and health issues that affect well-being. Coupled with the increase of population, the issue of support in old age is a real problem for society. While human resources are scarce and expensive, many players seeking solutions turn to technology to support the phenomenon. However these solutions are often stigmatizing, costly, require a learning effort and whose usefulness is often questioned. Specialized tools in aging struggle to penetrate the living space of the elderly. In this context, an affordable technology, which would anchor naturally in everyday life and whose design never evokes disability, has particularly interesting qualities. Positioned in the actimetry applied to gerontechnology, this doctoral work therefore aims to explore the potential of telephone metadata for social behavior deduction and the detection of events that may affect the well-being and the quality of life of the elderly. The underlying idea is that human behavior, whether biological or social, is quantifiable in relation to an individual average and a significant deviation is the sign of a characteristic event. We use digital traces as a reflection of the telephone activity to reconstruct some social patterns related to social activity and health. The results show statistically significant correlations between variables of telephone and social activity, the state of mental and physical health. This work validates previous research that gives the phone a key role in the management of social life and appeased negative emotions related to psychological symptomatology. It also enables to deepen the current knowledge about the relationship between physical health and use of the phone

Indicators of positive emotions in animals are still scarce. However, many studies showed that favour these emotions is a promising way to improve individual welfare state. This study aims to validate and identify some indicators of positive emotions in horses. First, based both on an experimental study using accelerometers and the observation of riding school horses during their regular feeding time, we characterized anticipatory behaviours in this specie and showed that they were triggered by an environmental cue. Moreover, anticipatory behaviours were associated with frustration and thus were not reliable indicators of positive emotions. However, an increase of their intensity may reflect a poor welfare state. Then, the use of an EEG helmet designed for awake horses free from their movements, allowed us to (i) confirm the left-hemisphere bias for positive emotions processes and the right hemisphere bias for attentional processes, (ii) highlight the implication of theta waves in cognitive attentional processes, (iii) underline interactions between attentional and emotional processes in horses. Moreover, we showed that the measures of attentional characteristics thanks to a visual attention test (VAT) was useful to define attentional capacities at work. The same test conducted without a human was rather useful to evaluate the horses’ welfare state. Finally, a comparative approach based on the observation of horses living either in restricted or in naturalistic conditions revealed that snort (out of breathing difficulties due to illness or poorly fitting equipment) could be a reliable indicator of positive emotions of low intensity as it would be the expression of the horses’ positive appraisal of a situation. This works opens up promising fundamental and applied perspectives and applications

To develop an " Austrian Welfare Economics ", two ways are possible. First, economists can draw their inspiration from what has been written before. Even if the Orthodox Welfare Economics has some methodological weaknesses, a general methodological framework is followed by mainstream welfare theoreticians. Austrians can draw their inspiration from this framework. KIRZNER follows this way when he tries to conciliate Mainstream and Austrian principles to elaborate his Coordination Criterion. Second, economists ignore all what has been made before, and directly start from the (autonomous and independent) Austrian Paradigm. ROTHBARD follows this rupture with his Demonstrated Preference inspired from Misesian Praxeology. In both cases, Austrian Economics is not Orthodox Economics, and Austrian Welfare Economics does not seem like Mainstream Welfare Economics. The "Austrian Welfare" has an original meaning: concrete results as optima or maxima are not important; but, the understanding of the process (through which people acquire knowledge to reach their purposes) that leads to these results is essential. This is why the Austrian equivalent to Welfare Economics can be called "Good Ways Economics"
