Abstract Persuasion success is often related to hard-to-measure characteristics, such as the way the persuader speaks. To examine how vocal tones impact persuasion in an online appeal, this research measures persuaders’ vocal tones in Kickstarter video pitches using novel audio mining technology. Connecting vocal tone dimensions with real-world funding outcomes offers insight into the impact of vocal tones on receivers’ actions. The core hypothesis of this paper is that a successful persuasion attempt is associated with vocal tones denoting (1) focus, (2) low stress, and (3) stable emotions. These three vocal tone dimensions—which are in line with the stereotype content model—matter because they allow receivers to make inferences about a persuader’s competence. The hypotheses are tested with a large-scale empirical study using Kickstarter data, which is then replicated in a different category. In addition, two controlled experiments provide evidence that perceptions of competence mediate the impact of the three vocal tones on persuasion attempt success. The results identify key indicators of persuasion attempt success and suggest a greater role for audio mining in academic consumer research.

The article presents the results of theoretical and empirical research of the problem of psychological aspects of ensuring the efficiency of professional activity of a Project Engineers in the context of the theory of general and special abilities, the need to take into account the general and individual-typological in the mental development of the subject of labor. The importance of considering professional skills in connection with the intellectual readiness of the subject to the activity and individual style of its implementation is theoretically substantiated. The empirical study revealed the presence of correlations between the efficiency of professional activity, psychological readiness and individual style of activity. The most referent in the description of the professional skills of project engineers are the time of labor tasks performance and individual style of activity, and the organizing factor in the unity of these indicators is the generalization of mental activity, which forms the core of intellectual readiness for work. Correlation analysis of the data allowed us to identify the presence of clear links between: 1) the efficiency of activity by time indicator and ISA: the more ISA corresponds to the reference method, the less time is spent on solving the labor task, and vice versa; 2) between ISA and intellectual readiness for activity; the higher the level of complexity of labor tasks, the higher the level of correlation between these phenomena.

The application of big data puts forward new requirements for the talent training mode and curriculum reform of big data in higher vocational colleges. Through statistical data, the classroom quality can be measured, evaluated and traced. Under the framework of “Internet plus big data”, taking the cultivation of innovative ability as the core, realizing the multidimensional integration of technology and science, general knowledge and specialty, teaching and research, and teachers and students has become a new concept and Practice for improving the quality of big data talents training in higher vocational colleges. Obstetrics and gynecology nursing is one of the core courses of nursing specialty in higher vocational colleges, which is of great significance to the cultivation of professional talents. The purpose of nursing specialty in higher vocational colleges is to cultivate skilled and technical applied talents to meet the needs of medical and health posts, which requires the combination of theoretical knowledge and practical skills, so as to cultivate students’ clinical thinking and ability. There are some problems in the course design of Obstetrics and gynecology nursing in higher vocational colleges, such as the derailment of theoretical teaching and practical teaching, teaching materials lagging behind the update of clinical skills, students’ low learning initiative, single teaching mode and so on. Based on the OBE teaching concept from the perspective of big data, this paper carries out curriculum design, curriculum implementation and Curriculum Evaluation Guided by students’ learning achievements, and through the reverse design of achievements, highlights the student-centered, quantifies teaching output, and cultivates students’ learning ability and creativity. By reasonably mobilizing students’ learning initiative, students can achieve “self-education, self-management, self-service, and common improvement”, so as to improve the teaching quality of this course, improve students’ clinical skills, promote the self-development of teachers and students, and realize the “winwin” of education.

The e-government development in Spain still lacks in the employee perspective. This background is clearly visible in the educative public sector where the authors can found several online services to employees but can't find a complete employee portal. The implementation of such systems is an opportunity to embed knowledge management, as it's the core process in education, but it would imply a deep organizational change. Thus, it is crucial to determine the barriers that could potentially prevent their implementation. The study aims to establish the barriers that influence the intention of use of those employee portals. The researchers used structural equation modeling to conduct an empirical study based on a hybrid TAM-TPB model. The results have found evidence on the majority of the proposed hypothesis. The authors conclude the study with a set of recommendations for the developers that could help in avoiding the effects of such barriers.

The Relationship

The relationship between citizens and governments is the core of e-government. E-participation is one of the political dimensions of e-government which focuses on informing, consulting, involving, collaborating, and empowering citizens to take part of the decision making process. This study adopted a framework for the five levels of e-participation and tried to test such model empirically using 400 responses from Jordanians. The study tried to measure Jordanian perceptions towards e-participation initiatives and practices in Jordan, and to measure the achievements on each level as perceived and reported by subjects. Results indicated that the highest perceived level was e-involving, and the lowest was e-consulting. Also, the CFA results indicated a distorted distribution of items between the major levels. Results of other issues explored are discussed further in this study.

First Time

Since 2009, the German criminal code has contained a far-reaching accomplice evidence rule (“Kronzeugenregelung“) in its sec. 46b. In his book, the author deals intensively with different aspects of this recent legal norm. He concentrates both on practical and on dogmatic problems concerning this highly contentious legal concept. In doing so, he critically analyses some of the traditional prejudices towards so-called supergrasses, particularly the compatibility with the principle of the mandatory prosecution of offenses (Legalitätsprinzip) as well as with the principle of guilt (Schuldprinzip). The core of the work is a nationwide empirical study which examines the practical application of the accomplice evidence rule. It contains an online survey among judges, prosecutors, lawyers and policemen, an analysis of court decisions and (for the first time ever) a student survey about the present topic. It is the largest empirical study on accomplice witnesses in Germany so far.

Purpose – This paper is a thought experiment that investigates the possibilities of moving from the typical “just-in-case” model of managing legacy collections of printed monographs to a centralised “just-in-time” model. Design/methodology/approach – Reliable published statistical data have been used; the core of these are the annual library statistics for UK research libraries collected by SCONUL. From these and other sources, the costs of monograph storage across UK research libraries have been determined. Findings – Establishing a centralised collective collection would bring a large return on investment. Research limitations/implications – This is not an empirical study. Originality/value – The value of this study is high.

Administrative Mediation

In 2016, the French Parliament introduced a new chapter on mediation in the Code of Administrative Justice. To succeed, this reform needs to reverse repeated failures in this field. In view of the significant challenge of embedding administrative mediation in the French administrative justice system, the reform and its implementation were informed by empirical findings arising from a mediation pilot set up by the administrative court of Grenoble in Spring 2013. An empirical study of the pilot and of the experience of rolling out administrative mediation in France forms the core of this article and the context in which to revisit foundational questions about mediation and administrative justice. I argue that mediation is not illsuited to administrative law disputes, but that to be integrated in a system of administrative justice, mediation requires the negotiation of a dedicated environment triggering in turn the emergence of a pluralist administrative justice system.
