Critical Aspects

Today’s knowledge economy very much depends on the value created by the human resource of an organisation. In such a highly competitive environment, organisations have started to pay much attention to the recruitment and selection process, as employees form their main asset. However, the critical factors involved in the employee selection process is not well studied. Previous studies on the recruitment and selection process have been performed mainly to study the performance of the employees and the criteria attracting the right talent leading to employee retention and organizational efficiency. The distinction of this paper is that it studies the existing recruitment and selection process adopted by tertiary and dual education sectors in both urban and regional areas within Australia. The purpose of this research is to conduct an empirical study to identify the critical aspects of the employee selection process that can influence the decision based on different perspectives of the participants such as, hiring members, successful applicants as well as unsuccessful applicants. Various factors such as feedback provision, interview panel participation and preparations, relevance of interview questions, duration and bias were analysed and their correlations were studied to gain insights in providing suitable recommendations for enhancing the process.

Esophageal adenocarcinoma is typically observed in the older non-Hispanic white population. Changing demographics are altering the epidemiology of the disease. The aim of this study is to review the presentation and outcomes of esophageal adenocarcinoma patients <40 years old at our institution. A retrospective review was performed of patients diagnosed with esophageal adenocarcinoma between 1990 and 2013. Demographics, presentation, and outcomes were compared in those <40 years old and those ≥40 years old. There were 772 total cases with 42 (5%) <40 years old consisting of 37 (88.1%) males, five females and median age of diagnosis of 35 (interquartile range: 31–38). The two most common ethnicities were White non-Hispanic/Latino in 19 (45.2%), Hispanic /Latino in 18 (42.9%). Compared with patients 40 years and older, the younger group had more Hispanic/Latinos than the older group (43% vs 17%, P < 0.001), more frequently presented with stage IV disease (50% vs 29%) and had a shorter median survival. In conclusion, younger patients tend to present at a much later stage than the older counterparts, which may be due to a delay in diagnosis as well as more aggressive biology. Esophageal adenocarcinoma seems to be increasing in the Hispanic/Latino population.

Essential Service

The controversy between the performance of public and private ownership of water and wastewater services is common worldwide. In most cases, this discussion is biased due to ideological issues or insufficiency or inconsistency of information. This study aims to compare the performance of private water utilities with that of public water utilities, using rich, robust, and audited information from Portuguese operators. The benchmarking exercise focuses on three distinct areas, namely, the efficiency and effectiveness of the investments made, the quality of service provided, and the tariffs and prices implemented. From the analysis performed, it is concluded that, on average, the performance of private water utilities exceeds that of public water utilities, and prejudice in most cases is unjustified regarding private ownership. Anyway, water, as an essential service, should always be provided, regardless of utility ownership.

AbstractObjective: The identification of personality disorder among psychiatric in-patients is important because of the effect on the course and outcome of illness. The introduction of a multiaxial approach to diagnosis, has resulted in a higher than previously reported rate of occurrence of personality disorder in a variety of psychiatric settings. A prevalence of personality disorder of 4.9% is reported in the official statistics for Irish psychiatric hospitals. The aim of this study is to determine the true prevalence of personality disorders in two Irish psychiatric hospitals, one public and one private, using a multiaxial approach to diagnosis.Methods: The Standardised Assessment of Personality (SAP) is a validated, semistructured, informant based instrument that reliably generates diagnoses of personality disorder irrespective of current mental state. Over a four month period, 78 consecutive, first ever admissions to two hospitals were examined using the SAP.Results: The prevalence of personality disorder in this population was 26%. There was no significant difference in the rate of personality disorder between the public and private institutions.Conclusions: The prevalence of personality disorder amongst in-patients in both public and private psychiatric hospitals in Ireland is far higher than previously reported. This highlights the importance of a multiaxial approach to diagnosis in order to establish the true extent of psychiatric morbidity.
