Повний текст джерелаThe growth of globalization has resulted in more organizations entering the competitiveinternational market which has influenced organizations to disseminate their message globally- commonly through the use of advertising. Television commercial is a media channelconsidered to be highly effective if applied with humor as a communication strategy. Theeffectiveness of this strategy generates in high awareness according to previous studies.However, there is a need of highlighting the cross-cultural distinctions when promoting acrossinternational boarders as humor is perceived differently depending on culture, which cannegatively affect the results. As the cultural characteristics in this matter tend to beoverlooked, this quantitative research is focusing on highlighting the cross-culturalcharacteristics in humorous advertising, through the use of Hofstede’s framework of nationalculture. The countries Sweden and China were compared with emphasize on cultureassociated to the reaction toward different humor styles in television commercials linked toperceived emotions. For identifying the humor types, Rod Martin’s four humor stylesaffiliative humor, self-enhancing humor, aggressive humor, and self-defeating humor, wereused.The purpose of this research was to disseminate the importance of cross-cultural aspects inhumor advertising with emphasize on culture and how emotions are perceived in Swedish andChinese culture. The importance relied within how to effectively apply humor in commercialsover cross-cultural boundaries. The questionnaires were performed by Swedish and Chineseuniversity students that generated in the collection of the empirical chapter. The researchfindings indicated that affiliative humor and aggressive humor used in commercial is equallyperceived emotionally in both Chinese and Swedish culture and also affects the purchaseintention similarly. Whereas self-defeating humor and self-enhancing humor are emotionallyequally perceived in both cultures, but the Chinese consumers are more willing to purchasethe product.

Повний текст джерелаTechnology is essential to organizations, especially computer-mediated communications, allowing for globalization, improved quality, and increased profits. Knowledge workers rely on technology as well as computer-mediated communication tools. Research on the use of computer-mediated communications among adolescents and in social settings has suggested that there is a lack of effective interaction and relatedness when technology is used. Research further posits that this can cause a breakdown in trust and commitment. This study used a survey to collect data about organizational commitment levels and relatedness and affiliation needs in the workplace for knowledge workers, and to what extent computer-mediated communications could explain these variables. The research question was: What is the extent of relationship between computer-mediated communications, relatedness and affiliation needs, and organizational commitment of knowledge workers? There were 199 responses collected by the researcher and analyzed with linear regression. The survey and structural model utilized a composite of existing instruments to measure computer-mediated communications, relatedness and affiliation needs in the work place, and commitment levels to the organization. Two structural models examined the relationships for the constructs and resulted in two null hypotheses being rejected. The first model tested computer-mediated communications use and relatedness and affiliation needs. The results supported a significant relationship between these variables. The second research question tested the relationship between computer-mediated communications use and normative and affective organizational commitment levels. The second model also rejected the null hypothesis and discovered a significant relationship exists between these variables. Future research was recommended to further analyze the results based on sex and age and include different classifications of knowledge workers.

Повний текст джерелаBien que les recherches soutiennent l'idée que l'attachement anxieux a des effets indésirables sur nos relations interpersonnelles courantes, on en sait encore peu quant au rôle joué par l'anxiété sur l'initiation d'une relation (Creasey & Jarvis, 2008; Mikulincer & Shaver, 2007). La présente recherche explore donc comment l'attachement anxieux affecte les comportements des individus et l'initiation d'une interaction. Le premier manuscrit inclut deux études ayant utilisé un jeu portant sur un dilemme social. Dans la première étude, l'attachement anxieux chronique était associé avec l'incertitude concernant la coopération et une plus longue période de latence quant au choix des comportements. Dans la deuxième étude, l'activation contextuelle de la sécurité d'attachement a été utilisée afin d'améliorer les effets de l'anxiété chronique. Les deux autres manuscrits examinent plus directement différents contextes interpersonnels. Dans le deuxième manuscrit, des données recueillies sur le terrain lors d'un speed-dating ont démontré que l'attachement anxieux était associé à une sélectivité romantique plus faible. En d'autres mots, les participants plus anxieux ont tenté de poursuivre les contacts amorcés lors du speed-dating avec un plus grand nombre de partenaires amoureux potentiels. De plus, ils avaient une popularité romantique plus faible, c'est-à-dire que moins de partenaires amoureux potentiels choisissaient de poursuivre avec les participants anxieux. Dans une analyse de détection de signaux, les participants qui étaient davantage anxieux, faisaient plus de fausses alarmes ou maximisaient le nombre de tentatives échouées d'initiation de relation. Finalement, le troisième manuscrit évalue un modèle de médiation où les manifestations interpersonnelles agissent comme médiateur dans le lien entre l'attachement anxieux et les effets sociaux négatifs lors d'une première interaction. Dans une première étude, les part

According to the kind of passion, engagement in the activity is different and the degree of opening to nature and environment would be impacted. Therefore, passion could be a key factor in pro-environmentalism development following outdoor activities practice. The objective of this thesis is to study the role of passion for outdoor activity on nature affiliation and conflict toward environmental protection and their influence on environmental motivation, while emphasizing the role of emotions and place attachment as mediators

Sandri, Giulia. "Intra-party democracy and political activism: a comparative analysis of attitudes and behaviours of grass-roots party members." Doctoral thesis, Universite Libre de Bruxelles, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/2013/ULB-DIPOT:oai:dipot.ulb.ac.be:2013/209800.
Повний текст джерелаIn this study, we explore two specific dimensions of party politics: membership and internal activisms, on the one hand, and on the other hand the internal democratization processes and in particular those dealing with broadening the inclusiveness of leadership selection procedures. Therefore, this study integrates in particular the debate on the nature and consequences of party organizational democratization. The debate finds its origins both in the influential work of Michels on the “iron law of oligarchy” thesis but has been more recently boosted by the theories of May (1973), Mair (1994) and also the studies on intra-party democracy in the British Labour (Shaw, 1994; Russell, 2005).
However, we are interested in the point of view of members themselves on the consequences of internal democratization. We are interested on how members perceive these organizational changes, in whether they are frustrated form the actual consequences on their role and powers and whether they perceive them as a potential threat that could undermine their organizational position within the party. In order to respond to the debate on the consequences of intra-party democracy at individual level, we rely mainly on three questions. The main research questions of this study are thus the following: to what extent party organizational changes in the sense of greater democratization affect the membership role at individual level? How are these organizational changes perceived by members? To what extent members’ perceptions of their own role affect their behaviors and in particular their internal activism?
The aim of this study, thus, is to empirically assess the impact on members’ activism of party internal democratization and in particular of the perception of membership role. We are interested in whether party members’ attitudes are changing as a result of parties’ organizational changes, particularly if these changes are giving members more say over outcomes. This is a study of how (and whether) perceived roles affect behaviour. The independent variable is constituted by the members’ perception of their own role within party organizational structures and in particular with regard to the leadership selection methods, whilst the dependent variable is represented by the level of activism of party members, in terms of participation to party activities in general. In fact, the impact of party rules at individual level will be addressed, as well as how the perception of organizational rules affects individual attitudes and behaviors. In particular, the focus is on leadership selection methods that integrate party members at some point in the overall process (Lisi, 2009), such as direct elections (Hazan and Rahat, 2006). The case selection is thus implemented on the basis of the research question: the comparison is developed across parties (and not across time) using different instruments for enhancing intra-party democracy.
Therefore, we analyze the role perception, attitudes and behaviors of grass-roots members of three contemporary Western European parties: the Belgian French-speaking socialist party (Parti Socialiste, PS), the British Labour and the Italian Democratic Party (Partito Democratico, PD). Among the selected parties, one (PD) holds primaries open to all voters for selecting their leader and one (Belgian PS), on the contrary, has chosen the closed primary (OMOV) system. The British Labour Party uses an electoral college for electing its leader since 1981. The Electoral College method refers to a system in which specific groups are allocated a specific share of the leadership vote. In the case of the UK Labour, the votes are equally divided among its constituency members, the parliamentary caucus and the trade union members.
Concerning the first research question of our study, our empirical results underline that in the three selected cases organizational changes affect indeed the membership role at individual level and that grass-root members perceive very clearly this impact on their status and organizational rights, obligations and privileges. When grass-roots members evaluate their role within the party, in particular with regard to the procedure for selecting the leader and the involvement of non-members and passive members within party organization, their perceptions take into account their organizational power as defined, among other factors, also by their share of votes in leadership selection. Thus, we expect that PD members perceive their role as more blurred than Labour members and particularly than PS members. In the case of parties, such as the PS, adopting direct elections of the party leader only by the affiliates, the majority of the members are expected to perceive clearly the distinction of the position, privileges and functions between members and non-members and the extensive role reserved for the affiliates.
Our data show that the perception of own role vary among members, but also that many members perceive their own role as being rather blurred. They display in fact nuanced but generally negative attitudes towards the integration of voters and supporters within the selection of party leader. On the basis of our survey data, the observed variation in the perception of membership role within and between the three parties seems to correspond to what we expected. A higher proportion of PD surveyed members declare to perceive their role as blurred, while smaller proportions of PS and particularly labour respondents share this evaluation. In general, our data confirm that party members do not evaluate positively the fact that these formal privileges are extended not only to all individual members, not only to activists but even to passive ones, but also to party voters and supporters. Mair’s “activists’ disempowerment” thesis (Mair, 1994) seems to be supported by our data, at least in terms of individual perceptions.
Moreover, our data show that the degree of satisfaction with intra-party democracy significantly vary among parties and is generally not nearly as high as could be expected on the basis of party politics literature. If in the British Labour survey the responses of grass-roots members seem to form a more positive picture, with a great majority of member declaring that the party leader is not too powerful, the level of dissatisfaction with party functioning is rather higher in the other two parties. Nevertheless, PS members are fairly more convinced than PS members that the party internal decision-making is democratic. This is what we expected to find on the basis of our first hypothesis. In fact, our first hypothesis postulated that the perception of the role of party membership by affiliates in terms of (lack of) distinction between members and non-members affects inversely their level of satisfaction with the internal functioning of the party and their degree of perceived political efficacy. The stronger the perception of the blurred role of membership, the lower will be the level of political efficacy and specific support for the party. According to our data, among PD members the perception of the blurred, undefined role of members is rather high and so is the degree of dissatisfaction with intra-party functioning. On the contrary, within the other two parties and especially within the Labour, the role perception by grass-roots members is rather positive and well-defined and the level of specific support for the party is also higher.
The expectations formulated on the basis of our first hypothesis appear to be supported by the empirical data also with regard to the variations in the sense of external political efficacy of members. Our data seem consistent with the hypothesis, developed by several scholars (Katz and Mair, 1995; Carty, 2004; Bolleyer, 2009), that expanding the leadership selectorate and granting formal powers to party members and supporters may hide, on the other hand, the perception by enrolled members to be actually loosing power. On the basis of our data, it is possible to assert that grass-roots members seem to be aware of the possibility of a trade-off between extreme inclusiveness of decision-making procedures and actual centralization of organizational power in the hands of party elites.
With regard to the third research question of this study, our results confirm that indeed members’ perceptions of their own role, in relation to internal democratization, affect their behaviors and in particular their internal participation. The three parties appear to have different features in terms of internal activism, at aggregate but in particular at individual level. Secondly, not only the overall level of intra-party activism of grass-roots members vary between and within the three selected parties, but appears to be influenced by members’ attitudes towards the party. In fact, our second hypothesis postulated that the levels of specific support for the party and political efficacy of party members impact directly on their level of activism. The lower the level of political efficacy and specific support for the party, the lower will be the degree of activism of all members (as well as the quality of the activities they perform) and vice-versa. In a party holding open and direct elections to choose its leader, party membership is thought to be divided between a highly active avant-garde and a larger mass of inactive affiliates, feeling inefficacy, frustrated with intra-party democracy and perceiving their own role as blurred and undefined. Consequently, dissatisfied or low efficacy members are argued to participate less.
Our data only partially support the expectations. In fact, the impact of the sense of external efficacy is clear and strong in all the three cases, while on the contrary the relationship between specific support and intra-party activism is less clear-cut than expected. The results are therefore nuanced with regard to the expectations formulated in the second hypothesis of this study. The explanatory power of external efficacy and specific support in terms of internal mobilization is only partially supported by our data. Therefore, the evaluation of the consequences of the implementation of party organizational changes such as the adoption of open primaries depends on what party elites are interested in: if the goal is to assure membership loyalty, adopting open primaries is not a good way to strengthen membership involvment in the party.
We believe that real intra-party democracy is normatively impossible with regard to the position of members. Organizational power cannot be too dispersed among different units without jeopardizing not only effective functioning of the party, as the old debated on the trade-off between democracy and efficacy asserted (Duverger, 1951; Panebianco, 1988), but also the incentives for internal participation of the party base. Party members are well aware that internal power cannot be too dispersed. From the point of view of members, a party should have a clear chain of command and should be composed by elites, activists and members. Each one of them should also be endowed with clearly defined tasks and responsibilities. In conclusion, we believe that intra-party democracy is a symbolic element of party organization but not as actually implementable.
In sum, intra-party democracy does not mean the same for different party units. For party elites, it represents a process for either legitimizing the party, changing party image, mobilizing electoral support, managing internal faction or even indirectly increasing their own organizational room for manoeuvre. For party members, intra-party democracy represents an incentive for mobilizing and a political identification tool until a certain point. After that, it becomes a threat to their rights and their status. For grass-roots affiliates, intra-party democracy is not a value per se, but it depends on its real intensity and actual implementation. In conclusion, at theoretical level, we can conclude that party organization theories should increasingly take into account membership’s point of view. On the contrary, at practical level, we can conclude that parties should adapt their strategies with regard to intra-party democracy according to their goal. If party elites are interested in tightening their grip on internal decision-making while increasing their room for manoeuvre and legitimizing party image at the same time, increasing intra-party democracy could be the best organizational strategy. On the contrary, if the leadership’s aim is to mobilize members and guarantee a stable and loyal membership, then it should be noted that increasing intra-party democracy is not always the best choice. To this regard, it might be useful for party elites to find other and more effective ways to loyalize member.

Повний текст джерелаThe economy of organizations examines the institutional mechanisms that lead to the production and exchange of goods and services. This thesis analyzes the mode of operation of NGOs which are specific to the Lebanese Society. It raises the following question: how can one explain the appeal of NGOs to the Lebanese people and the lure to use and benefit from its services? This thesis has demonstrated that these NGOs operate to achieve certain goals of political nature. The theory of political entrepreneurship applies to this concept and is considered as the theoretical framework of this dissertation. Accordingly, this thesis posits that a new political balance is achieved in the Lebanese society. In order to highlight the effectiveness of Lebanese NGOs, this thesis proposes an empirical methodology based on both quantitative and qualitative approach. The main objective of the proposed model is to underscore the existence of a relation between the perception of individuals benefiting form services rendered by NGOs and their sectarian affiliations. This dissertation reveals that the majority of people benefiting of NGOs services in Lebanon belong to a certain sect that favors people pertaining to its denomination in terms of redistribution. This signifies that the effects of sectarianism are still rampart in the Lebanese society. Lebanese NGOs can be considered as pressure groups that play an intermediary role on the Lebanese political scene. This intermediation of representative democracy allows a reconsideration of political strategies of pressure groups especially as to go beyond the norms of egalitarian representative democracy used in the Lebanese model of governance

Doctoral thesis, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Philosophische Fakultät III, 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.18452/16511.
Повний текст джерелаThis work provides a solid theoretical base on philanthropy, religious giving (Islamic zakat, ‘ushour, Waqf -plural: awqaf-, Sadaqa and Christian tithes or ‘ushour), and their implications on giving trends, development work, social justice philanthropy. The field study (quantitative and qualitative) that supports the theoretical framework reflects at a national level the Egyptian public’s perceptions on philanthropy, social justice, human rights, giving and volunteering and other concepts that determine the peoples’ civic engagement. The statistics cover 2000 households, 200 Civil Society Organizations distributed all over Egypt and interviews donors, recipients, religious people and other stakeholders. The numbers reflect philanthropic trends and for the first time provide a monetary estimate of local philanthropy of over USD 1 Billion annually. The survey proves that the per capita share of philanthropy outweighs the per capita share of foreign economic assistance to Egypt, which implies the significance of local giving if properly channeled, and not as it is actually consumed in the vicious circle of ad-hoc, person to person charity. In addition, the study relates local giving mechanisms derived from religion and culture to modern actual structures, like community foundations or community waqf that could bring about sustainable change in the communities. In sum, the work provides a comprehensive scientific base to help understand- and build on local philanthropy in Egypt. It explores the role that local individual giving could play in achieving sustainable development and building a new wave of community foundations not only in Egypt but in the Arab region at large. As a tangible result of this thesis, an innovative model that revives the concept of waqf and builds on the study’s results was created by the researcher and a dedicated board of trustees who succeeded in establishing Waqfeyat al Maadi Community Foundation (WMCF) that not only introduces the community foundation model to Egypt, but revives and modernizes the waqf as a practical authentic philanthropic structure.

En contraste, les approches socio-éthologiques ont souligné comment les groupes naturels soumissent une variété de rôles sociaux distincts susceptibles d'influencer la croissance et le développement individuel. Malgré tout, les analyses éthologiques se sont longtemps limitées à documenter uniquement les relations agressives et la structure de dominance dans les groupes. Parallèlement, des recherches similaires sur 1'organisation affiliative furent entravées par 1'absence de modèles propres à 1'étude des structures sociales cohésives. Les analyses contemporaines des réseaux affiliatifs entre pairs, selon les profils d'association, offrent une base descriptive heuristique pour 1'étude de 1'organisation cohésive du groupe à Age préscolaire. Toutefois, 1'usage exclusif du comportement affiliatif, à titre d'indice socio-structurel. réduit d’autant 1'examen de la qualité de réinsertion individuel dans la structure affiliative et de son influence sur les activités sociales des enfants. De plus, les analyses portant sur la discrimination sociale se doivent de dépasser les considérations sur 1'association à un sous-groupe particulier afin de mieux définir l’impact des entourages locaux sur le développement individuel. Une attention particulière doit être accordée à la stratification des réseaux affiliatifs et à 1'influence probable des différences de statut sur 1'organisation des relations cohésives. Dans cette recherche, 1'évaluation des réseaux est réalisée à partir d'indices de proximité inter-personnelle et de mesures sociométriques pour déterminer la préférence sociale envers les partenaires de jeux. Ces procédures complémentaires permettent l'analyse empirique de la stratification des sous-groupes et 1'examen de la variabilité du phénomène de discrimination sociale. Dans la première étude, des patrons collectifs de proximité interpersonnelle et d'investissement prosocial pendant les activités de jeu libre servent à identifier les choix associatifs des enfants. L'échantillon comprend trois groupes d'enfants Portugais d'âge préscolaire. L’échantillonnage par balayage instantané est utilisé pour identifier les sous-groupes naturels sur une période de trois mois. A la fin des observations, les nominations sociométriques positives et négatives des partenaires de jeux sont obtenues par entrevues individuelles. L’application d'algorithmes matriciels et de techniques multivariées développées par Strayer et ai. (1988) génèrent des résultats descriptifs des réseaux mettant en évidence certaines similarités dans 1'organisation affiliative des trois groupes préscolaires et indiquant qu'une vaste majorité d'enfants sont intégrés dans des cliques sociales cohésives. Les résultats d'analyse des nominations positives et négatives révèlent que 1'appartenance des enfants à des cliques cohésives est associée à une préférence marquée vers 1'endogroupe sans rejet face à 1'exogroupe. Inversement, les membres des agrégats sociaux ne démontrent pas de préférence envers l’endogroupe. L'analyse de Ia stratification sociale indiquent que les sous-groupes affiliatifs se distinguent entre eux sur la dimension de la désirabilité des pairs et aussi que les membres de chaque sous-groupe ont, de façon significative, tendance à obtenir des scores similaires de désirabilité. Enfin, l’introduction des statuts différentiels dans les analyses du biais endogroupe permet de souligner que les membres de cliques de haut et moyen statut sont fortement discriminants IV en faveur de leurs co-membres tandis que les enfants de diques de bas statut ne démontrent pas de préférence significative similaire. Dans la seconde étude empirique, 1'analyse des réseaux s'élargie par 1'utilisation de données sur "le voisin le plus près" recueillies durant trois sessions consécutives d'une année scolaire auprès d'un groupe d'enfants Américains d'âge préscolaire. L'évaluation du biais social et de la stratification sociale est dérivée d'une méthode sociométrique de comparaison par paires qui fournit une meilleure information en terme de stabilité et d'ampleur. De plus, 1'attention sociale est utilisée à titre d'index comportemental pour valider les procédures d’analyse de réseaux et de stratification et afin d'évaluer les fonctions de socialisation potentielles des sous-groupes particuliers dans le contexte plus large du groupe de pairs. Le choix de 1'attention sociale offre également 1'opportunité de contribuer au débat actuel en éthologie de 1'enfant sur les modèles d'organisation sociale des groupes de pairs. L’information extensive fournie par la méthode sociométrique de comparaisons-pairées révèle une plus forte similarité des sous-groupes au niveau de la désirabilité des pairs. De plus, les enfants de cliques de haut statut démontrent une plus grande préférence vers 1'endogroupe que les enfants de cliques de moyen ou bas statuts. Enfin, les enfants de cliques de bas statut manifeste une préférence endogroupe significative ce qui fournit une validation additionnelle à la conception de réseaux de diques sociales cohésives. Les analyses sur le biais dans 1'attention sociale indiquent que les membres des cliques sont fortement biaisés envers leurs co-membres. D'autre part, les membres des agrégats sociaux ne démontrent pas un tel biais dans 1'allocation de leur attention sociale. Ces résultats confirment la vision initiale quant aux différences dans la nature cohésive des deux types de sous-groupes affiliatifs et fournissent une importante validation externe pour la présente approche socio-structurelle. Le degré de magnitude de 1'attention sociale des enfants envers leur co-membres augmente en fonction du statut de leur clique et demeure significatif même pour les enfants de bas statut. La réalisation d'analyses additionnelles sur la distribution de l’attention non dirigée vers des co-membres indiquent que 1'attention sociale reçue des pairs provient principalement des membres de la clique sociale immédiate de 1'enfant et dans une proportion beaucoup moindre par les pairs situées en dehors de 1'entouragé affiliatif immédiat. Cependant, les membres de sous-groupes de plus haut statut démontrent une plus grande capacité pour attirer 1'attention résiduelle des enfants d'autres groupes de pairs. Un tel résultat supporte la notion que 3e degré de stratification social, aussi bien que l’association cohésive influencent la distribution de 1'attention sociale à 1'intérieur d'un groupe stable de pairs. La discussion des résultats de la présente recherche aborde la question de 1'étude des activités cohésives et dispersives chez les groupes de pairs d'âge préscolaire dans une perspective éthologique renouvelé. Une intégration interdisciplinaire des recherches sur les bases biologiques et psychologiques du développement comportemental est proposée afin de mieux démontrer 1'ínfluence des rôles sociaux structurés au sein des groupes de pairs sur 1'adaptarion et le développement social à long terme de 1'enfant. ------ ABSTRACT ------ During the last three decades, developmental research has increasingly emphasized the relevance of peer relations in children's socialization. However, most studies of child development still focus upon individual differences in social status, tacitly neglecting relational constraints inherent in the ecology of the peer group. In contrast, socio-ethological approaches have stressed that natural groups provide a variety of distinct social roles that differentially impact upon individual growth and development. However, ethological analyses have often been limited to aggressive relations and group dominance structures. Cornparable studies of affiliative organization have been hampered by the paucity of models for the study of cohesive social structure. Current network analyses of patterns of peer association offer an heuristic basis for investigating the cohesive organization of preschool stable groups. However, the exclusive use of affiliative behavior as a socio-structural index imposes limits on analyses of how insertion into the peer group affiliative structure influences the patterning of children's social activity. Moreover, analyses of social discrimination must extend beyond consideration of subgroup association in order to better characterize the impact of cohesive local contexts on individual development. Attention must be to given to the stratification of children!s affiliative networks and to the potential influence of status differentials on the organization of cohesive relationships. In the present research, network assessments based on indices of interpersonal proximity are integrated with sociometric methods for determining "likability" of play partners. Together, these procedures permit an empirical analysis of subgroup stratification and variation in subgroup discrimination. In the first empirical study. Vil collective patterns of interpersonal proximity and prosocial involvement during free play were examined as indices of associative patterns in three Portuguese preschool groups. The observational assessment was based on repeated scan sampling of naturally occurring subgroups during a three month period. Children's sociometric nominations of most and least liked play partners were obtained from individual interviews following the observation period. Using matrix algorithms and multivariate techniques developed by Strayer et al (1988), the network descriptive results show similarity in the affiliative organization for the three groups, with the vaste majority of children integrated within cohesive social cliques. Analyses of positive and negative nominations revealed that children's membership in cohesive cliques was associated with strong ingroup preference but not with outgroup rejection. In contrast, members of social aggregates showed no ingroup preference. Social stratification analyses revealed that affiliative subgroups differed on a peer likability dimension and that there was a significant tendency for subgroup members to have similar likability scores. Finally, the introduction of status differentials in the analysis of ingroup bias revealed that members of high and medium status cliques were highly discriminative in favor of co-members, while in contrast, children in low status cliques showed no significant ingroup preference. In the second empirical study. network analysis were extended using nearest neighbor data collected during three sessions of the school year in an American preschool group Assessments of social bias and social stratification were derived from a paired comparison sociometric method which yields more stable and extensive information. In addition, social attention was used as a behavioral index for validating the network and stratification procedures and for assessing potential socializing functions of particular vm subgroups in the larger context of the peer group. The choice of social attention also offer the possibility to contribute to an ongoing debate In the child ethology literature concerning models of peer group social organization. The more extensive information provided by the paired-comparisons sociometric method showed stronger subgroup similarity in peer likability. Moreover, children in high status cliques reveal more ingroup preference than children in medium or low status cliques. Most important, children in low status cliques showed significant ingroup preference, a result that provide additional validation for the network conception of cohesive social cliques. Analyses of bias in social attention revealed that clique members were highly biased towards co-members. Members of social aggregates showed no such bias in the allocation of their social attention. These findings confirm the earlier view of differences in the cohesive nature of the two types of affiliative subgroups, and offer an important external validation of the present socio-structural approach. The magnitude of children1 s ingroup attraction of social attention increased as a function of the status of their clique but was significant even for low status subgroups. Supplementary analyses of the distribution of attention not directed to co-members indicated that social attention received from peers came predominantly from members of a child’s immediate social clique and to a considerable lesser degree from peers outside the immediate affiliative entourage. However, members of higher status subgroups appeared to nave slightly more capacity to attract the residual attention of other peer group members. Such a result supports the notion that social standing as well as cohesive bonding influences the distribution of social attention within the stable peer group. Results of the present research are discussed in terms of future ethological approaches to cohesive and dispersive activities in preschool peer groups. An interdisciplinary integration of biological and psychological research on behavioral development is proposed in order to IX furthering the understanding of how social roles within early peer groups impact on children's social adaptation and shape their long term social development.

Повний текст джерелаAlthough people frequently pursue multiple goals simultaneously, these goals often conflict with each other. For instance, consumers may have both a healthy eating goal and a goal to have an enjoyable eating experience. In this dissertation, I focus on two sources of enjoyment in eating experiences that may conflict with healthy eating: consuming tasty food (Essay 1) and affiliating with indulging dining companions (Essay 2). In both essays, I examine solutions and strategies that decrease the conflict between healthy eating and these aspects of enjoyment in the eating experience, thereby enabling consumers to resolve such goal conflicts.
Essay 1 focuses on the well-established conflict between having healthy food and having tasty food and introduces a novel product offering (“vice-virtue bundles”) that can help consumers simultaneously address both health and taste goals. Through several experiments, I demonstrate that consumers often choose vice-virtue bundles with small proportions (¼) of vice and that they view such bundles as healthier than but equally tasty as bundles with larger vice proportions, indicating that “healthier” does not always have to equal “less tasty.”
Essay 2 focuses on a conflict between healthy eating and affiliation with indulging dining companions. The first set of experiments provides evidence of this conflict and examine why it arises (Studies 1 to 3). Based on this conflict’s origins, the second set of experiments tests strategies that consumers can use to decrease the conflict between healthy eating and affiliation with an indulging dining companion (Studies 4 and 5), such that they can make healthy food choices while still being liked by an indulging dining companion. Thus, Essay 2 broadens the existing picture of goals that conflict with the healthy eating goal and, together with Essay 1, identifies solutions to such goal conflicts.

Повний текст джерелаAo longo dos anos os hábitos de consumo têm sofrido algumas alterações. O consumidor tem cada vez mais acesso à informação e consequentemente é mais exigente na escolha dos produtos. Em relação ao tabagismo existe também uma maior consciência dos malefícios associados ao tabaco que têm incentivado a tentativa de abandono deste vício. Face a esta realidade empresas inseridas no sector do tabaco sentiram a necessidade de acompanhar as novas tendências, alterando ou até mesmo reformulando as suas estratégias, como é o caso da Tabaqueira. A Tabaqueira, subsidiária da Philip Morris Internacional é uma empresa portuguesa que está presente no sector do tabaco desde 1927 e é responsável pela produção e comercialização de marcas internacionais e nacionais de tabaco. Ao longo dos anos, a empresa decidiu investir na categoria de produtos de risco reduzido e em 2015 a marca lançou em Portugal o IQOS, um dispositivo electrónico inovador que é potencialmente menos prejudicial para a saúde, uma vez que não tem combustão. O propósito da minha tese é perceber qual a aceitação e perceção do IQOS no mercado português. Desta forma, vou analisar as diferenças de comportamento do consumidor face ao tabagismo e quais os principais motivos para a introdução do IQOS. Consequentemente irei explorar a viabilidade da estratégia da Tabaqueira.
