Negative influence of later pubertal maturation on bone integrity in healthy women is already determined in childhood

The paper presents the analysis of the data received from the survey of heads of industrial enterprises and also experts-researchers in 2003-2004. The data describe the economic state of enterprises and their position in competitive, administrative, intermediary, financial etc. environment. The assumption of essential heterogeneity of the set of industrial enterprises, including enterprises of the same sector or the same territorial formation is confirmed. It is shown that Russian industrial enterprises as a rule do not feel influence of the stock market situation while the condition of the currency market influences the majority of enterprises. The sensitivity of enterprises depends on their economic situation: the better is the state, the stronger is the influence. Weak influence of the investment and administrative environment on the state of enterprises and negative influence of the activity of intermediary organizations are registered. More than 2/3 of the respondents consider important strengthening of the responsibility of large proprietors for inefficient activity of their enterprises. Lack of the strategic approach in the activity of authorities of all levels is ascertained and the necessity of development and realization of industrial policy at all administrative levels, including the municipal one, is shown.

History Of

In this paper the author presents a case of a narcissistic adolescent boy with crippling anxieties and multiple inhibitions, where the contributing intergenerational history of self-difficulties had infiltrated the parental couple's "selfdyad" in a way that could not be adequately contained. Having lost much of the capacity for the mutual selfobject relatedness that is required for a good enough selfdyad regulation, the parents' introjects were then split off and re-projected into their child. The author demonstrates a way of working in the treatment with the use of multiple psychoanalytic therapies, individual, couple, and family modalities. Furthermore, he elaborates a rationale for such a format, especially for those cases in which the intergenerational family projection-linking functions are especially salient and continue to exert a negative influence on the identified patient.

Board Diversity

This study examines whether board diversity affects firm performance. We investigate this study using panel data of a sample of S&P 500 firms during a 12 year period. After controlling for industry, firm size, and other board composition variables, we find that all three board diversity variables of interest – gender, ethnicity, and age have a significant influence on firm performance. While ethnicity and age have a positive influence on firm performance, it was found that gender has a negative influence. Implications for future research are discussed.
