Tourism Image

The assessment of tourist destination images should not only be the arrangement of multiple influencing factors. This study explores the complex causal relationship for tourist destination images based on a configuration perspective to enhance the overall tourism image using the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis method. The configurational paths for promoting tourism image can be categorized into two types and nine configurations in Shandong Province. Therefore, this study recommends augmenting the tourism image of the entire region with the logical thinking of “segmentation–integration” and “enhancing strengths–supplementing weakness” and finally realizing a sustainable tourist destination image.

This paper reevaluates the ground on which the division into urban and rural gələt dialects, as spoken in Iraq and Khuzestan (south-western Iran), is built on. Its primary aim is to describe which features found in this dialect group can be described as rural and which features tend to be modified or to emerge in urban contexts, and which tend to be retained. The author uses various methodical approaches to describe these phenomena: (i) a comparative analysis of potentially rural features; (ii) a case study of Ahvazi Arabic, a gələt dialect in an emerging urban space; and (iii) a small-scale sociolinguistic survey on overt rural features in Iraqi Arabic as perceived by native speakers themselves. In addition, previously used descriptions of urban gələt features as described for Muslim Baghdad Arabic are reevaluated and a new approach and an alternative analysis based on comparison with new data from other gәlәt dialects are proposed. The comparative analysis yields an overview of what has been previously defined as rural features and additionally discusses further features and their association with rural dialects. This contributes to our general understanding of the linguistic profile of the rural dialects in this geographic context.

The HDM-4 (Highway Development Management) model used for pavement management activities must be adjusted to the specific conditions of a country or region where they are to be used by adjusting certain calibration factors. The results obtained from calibrating the cracking, raveling, potholing, rut depth, and roughness models contemplated in HDM-4 version 1.1 for surface treatments are presented and compared with the results obtained from equivalent models of HDM-III. In this task, the “windows” methodology was used, which consists of reconstructing the distress performance curve of a specific road category starting with observation of the condition of different roads with similar characteristics (such as traffic, pavement structural capacity, and climatic conditions) but of different ages. On the basis of the results obtained, recommendations for calibrating the performance models are proposed, and calibration factors more adequate for characteristics specific to Chilean surface treatments are established. On comparing the results of the calibrated models of HDM-III and HDM-4, it is concluded that both cases furnish similar values, and use of HDM-4 models is recommended because of their operating advantages and because they afford a greater flexibility, which allows them to more aptly adapt to a broader number of cases and situations.

The aim of the study is to analyze the causes of the distance of emerging countries to the most developed countries in the world as well as proposals on ways to reduce this distance. A comparative analysis of the results obtained by the study was used for this purpose — the actual results obtained in developing countries were compared with the results obtained in the most developed countries. The analysis presents three dimensions of comparisons, which include: the distance between the countries, the most developed and developing countries, differences in the gap between developing countries and the gap distance within the different categories of indicators within a single country. The study used data for the years 1990—2013, and if it was possible for earlier years.

New Generation

This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of using the dynamics of intrapreneurship to develop a new generation performance management model based on the structural dynamics of the Balanced Score Card approach. The literature survey covered entrepreneurship, from which the construct, intrapreneurship, was synthesized. Reconstructive logic and Hermeneutic methodology were used in studying the performance management systems and the Balanced Score Card approach. The dynamics were then integrated into a new approach for the management of performance of intrapreneurial employees in the corporate environment. An unstructured opinion survey followed: a sample of intrapreneurship students evaluated and validated the model’s conceptual feasibility and probable practical value.
