Zusammenfassung: An einer Stichprobe von 115 Erwachsenen wurden fünf Hypothesen zur Struktur von Emotionen und zu den Beziehungen zwischen Emotionen und Persönlichkeitseigenschaften überprüft. Die umfangreiche Batterie von Messvariablen umfasste: 3 Verfahren zur Messung der Big Five; das Trierer Inventar zur Verhaltenskontrolle zur Messung des Big Six-Faktors “Hedonismus/Spontaneität”; 7 Skalen von Watson und Clark (1992) sowie 12 neu entwickelte Skalen zur differenzierten Erfassung von Emotionen (in Anlehnung an Davitz, 1969 ). Es wurde eine hierarchische Struktur der Emotionen mit den beiden orthogonalen Faktoren 2. Ordnung “negative Affektivität vs. innere Harmonie” und “Aktiviertheit” sowie den vier Faktoren 1. Ordnung “Missbefinden”, “freudige Aktiviertheit”, “Ängstlichkeit” und “Verärgerung” ermittelt. Das von Watson und Tellegen (1985) postulierte Circumplexmodell der Emotionen ließ sich nicht bestätigen. Zwischen den Big Six sowie den beiden Faktoren 2. Ordnung “Seelische Gesundheit” und “Verhaltenskontrolle” und den Emotionen zeigten sich zum Teil enge Zusammenhänge. Diese wurden vor dem Hintergrund zweier theoretischer Grundpositionen diskutiert.

Client Acceptance Decision

This paper has been written following the refusal of US Big Six firms to participate in a context‐based research project on the new‐client‐acceptance decision, in spite of their claims that current audit research is too far removed from the realities of practice. The paper aims to problematise the firms’ refusal, arguing that it exemplifies efforts at policing the development of academic knowledge on the part of gatekeepers who strive to make researchers work on technicalities, thereby mitigating the risk that research may tarnish the profession’s legitimacy. Insights into the social construction of the gatekeepers’ efforts at policing knowledge are provided by the multilateral negotiations with the firms, showing initial differences in gatekeepers’ boundaries of acceptable research, and subsequent between‐firm discussions that resulted in the firms’ joint decision to refuse participation.

Language Content

The present study was based on psycholexical approach premises and explored the structure of a large set of personality attribute‐nouns in the Italian language. Content inspection (based on Big Five categories) and quantitative indices were used to interpret the attribute‐noun dimensions. Results showed (a) a stable three‐component solution which replicated the Big Three; (b) an unstable five‐factor solution which did not reproduce the Big Five; (c) an unstable six‐factor solution which represented deviations from the Big Five system, which have been found in most psycholexical studies conducted in the Italian language. The six lexical dimensions were interpreted as follows: Conscientiousness (replicating the III of the Big Five); Self‐Assurance (combining the Big Five I assertiveness and IV fearfulness subcategories); Sociability (defined by the Big Five I sociableness and I impulse expression subcategories); Placidity (combining the Big Five II peacefulness, II unassertiveness, and IV irritableness subcategories); Honesty and Humility (comprising the Big Five II modesty and II helpfulness subcategories plus integrity values); Cleverness and Sophistication (defined by the Big Five V subcategories). The conclusion was that personality word organisation in the Italian language reflects the psycholexical Big Three and Big Six, but not the Big Five. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The present study focus on non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. Coli (STEC), included a bacteriological study was subjected to provide additional information for non-O157 STEC prevalence in children and calves. Isolation by using selective culturing media (CHROMagar STEC and CHROMagar O157) from 127 children suffering from diarrhea and 133 calves in Al- Muthanna province. Characterization depends on culturing positive colony on MacConkey agar and Levin’s Eosin Methylene blue agar, staining single colony from the growth by gram stain, biochemical tests; Indole, the Methyl Red, Voges-Proskauer, Citrate test, Oxidase, Catalase, Urease, Motility, Kligler Iron and Api-20E, were done to confirm a diagnosis of non-O157 STEC, The reliable isolation as non-O157 STEC serotyping by specific latex agglutination test for the target non-O157 STEC (big six) serogroup (O26, O45, O103, O111, O121 and O145). The current study showed the prevalence of non-O157 STEC was 20 of out 127 (15.73%) in samples collected from children and 27 / 133 (20.30%) in calves samples in conclusion the Non-O157 STEC is an important cause of diarrhea in children, and calves; finally, the calves play an important reservoir for Non-O157 STEC.
