Measurement of human capital is not an easy to do because it is dynamic and always changing in accordance with the changing circumstances. Determination of dimensions and indicators of measurement needs to consider various factors such as situations and also the research scopes. This article has objectives to review the concepts, dimensions and measurement models of human capital. The research method used was literature study with a major reference source from current journal articles that discuss the measurement of human capital. Results of the study showed that basically the definition set forth in any dimension containing either explicitly or implicitly. In addition, the result indicated that there are three main categories of equality among researchers regarding the definition of human capital which emphasizes on: economic value/productivity, education, and abilities/competencies. The results also showed that the use of definitions, dimensions, and indicators for measurement of human capital depends on the situation, the scope of research, and the size of the organization. The conclusion of the study indicated that the measurement model and determination of dimensions and indicators of human capital measurement will determine the effectiveness of the measurement, and will have an impact on organizational performance.

Human Capital Measurement

Purpose Despite the large number of academic publications in human capital, there are few instruments to measure it. The purpose of this paper is to develop a holistic scale to measure human capital, considering aspects related to competence, attitudes, skills, leadership, and organizational memory. Design/methodology/approach First, a literature review of the existing measurement models was carried out. Second, based on the results the authors developed a scale and a questionnaire that were applied in a financial institution in Santa Catarina, Brazil, supported by a factor analysis and a reliability analysis. Findings As a result of this study a scale consisting of 13 variables of human capital emerged that have been grouped into three factors – leadership and motivation; qualifications; and satisfaction and creativity – which can assist in the organization’s human capital measurement. From a theoretical view, a more holistic scale is provided, which helps to overcome a unilateral focus on knowledge (intangibles). Research limitations/implications This work points out that the survey data were collected from a sample of 220 relationship managers of a specific financial institution. The results should be tested in other banks or organizations from other sectors to check their suitability and to be generalized. Practical implications From a practical point of view, it contributes a “tool” that can assist in the measurement of human capital and in the knowledge contained, dimensioning the organizational memory and human repositories. Originality/value This is the first study that provides a scale to measure organizational human capital from the Brazilian financial perspective.

The first aim of this work is the definition and the study of a suitable sampling method for the measurement of landfill gas (LFG) emissions from landfill surfaces, since, up to now, there are no codified nor universally accepted sampling methods for this specific task. The studied sampling method is based on the use of a static hood. The research work involves a preliminary theoretical study for the hood design, experimental tests for the definition of the optimal sampling procedures, and simulations of the hood fluid-dynamics for the system validation. The second aim of this study is the investigation of the correlations between LFG emissions and meteorological conditions, whose identification would be very useful in terms of effective landfill management and pollution control. This involved a wide literature study for the selection of those parameters that seem to have an influence on LFG emission, and the collection of a great number of experimental data on a target site, which led to the conclusion that atmospheric pressure and soil humidity are the parameters that mostly affect LFG emissions.

Central Chernozem

Full reproduction of steady and productive forest and landscape gardening plantings requires carrying out acclimatization of perspective species of wood plants in modern conditions of climatic changes and anthropogenous process. Improvement of a condition of cultures and plantations of nut bearing plants is a component of system of actions for increase of production of the food. Among nut bearing breeds of the most valuable the walnut (Juglans regia L is.). The introduction, selection and broad cultivation of a nut walnut in all areas suitable on climate in roadside protective forest belts, in gardening of settlements etc. are necessary. Cultivation of this breed demands carrying out the selection works directed on removal of grades and forms with quality fruits. Purposeful cultivation of cultures of a walnut demands development of effective methods of selection, including hybridization. In work the developed technique of determination of quality of fruits of a walnut for the Central Chernozem region which is necessary not only in connection with the available different interpretations, but also for the complex analysis of all quality indicators of fruits is presented. The generalized modernized system of definition of categories of economic value of fruits was developed for the Central Chernozem region. The main average indicators of external parameters and quality of fruits of local forms are defined and the generalizing table of distribution of qualitative signs on the established gradation is made. The selection and identification of potentially productive plants is an important issue and requires detailed study.

Purpose:The purposes of this investigation were to examine the construct dimensionality and range of ability effectively measured by 28 assessment items obtained from 3 different patient-reported scales of communicative functioning, and to provide a demonstration of how the Rasch approach to measurement may contribute to the definition of latent constructs and the development of instruments to measure them.Method:Item responses obtained from 421 stroke survivors with and without communication disorders were examined using the Rasch partial credit model. The dimensionality of the item pool was evaluated by (a) examining correlations of Rasch person ability scores obtained separately from each of the 3 scales, (b) iteratively excluding items exceeding mean square model fit criteria, and (c) using principal-components analysis of Rasch model residuals. The range of ability effectively measured by the item pool was examined by comparing item difficulty and category threshold calibrations to the distribution of person ability scores and by plotting the modeled standard error of person ability estimates as a function of person ability level.Results:The results indicate that most assessment items fit a unidimensional measurement model, with the notable exception of items relating to the use of written communication. The results also suggest that the range of ability that could be reliably measured by the current item pool was restricted relative to the range of ability observed in the patient sample.Conclusions:It is concluded that (a) a mature understanding of communicative functioning as a measurement construct will require further research, (b) patients with stroke-related communication disorders will be better served by the development of instruments measuring a wider range of communicative functioning ability, and (c) the theoretical and methodological tools provided by the Rasch family of measurement models may be productively applied to these efforts.

Human Capital Measurement

The aim of the paper is to present a method for estimating the percentage compliance of statutory minimum wages in selected Trisea countries with minimum wages established on the basis of human capital theory. The first part of the study deals with the essence of capital, human capital and fair wage. Thermodynamic theory enables a deeper understanding of the nature of capital and perception the complementarity of capital and labor, from which follows a set of basic economic concepts. From this basis are developed the Human Capital Measurement Model and the Fair Pay Model. The models used to measure the value of human capital presented in the article help determine the minimal fair wages in Poland and selected Trisea countries. These models are based on fundamental laws of reality: the first and second laws of thermodynamics and the principle of minimal action. Especially the second law of thermodynamics in its basic formulation is indispensable in economic considerations, because the human body has the features of a heat engine and experiences spontaneous, random dispersions of energy. Fair wage means that the earnings of two working parents allow the two descendants to reach the level of human capital they achieve, i.e. this wage guarantees the preservation of human capital. The article ends with a comparison of the percentage compliance of statutory minimum wages in selected Trisea countries with minimum wages set on the basis of human capital theory. This percentage shows the similarities and differences between the economies of the countries surveyed in terms of costs of living and indicates the possibility of creating their own economic union.

Software Assurance

Ensuring and sustaining software product integrity requires that all project stakeholders share a common understanding of the status of the product throughout the development and sustainment processes. Accurately measuring the product’s status helps achieve this shared understanding. This paper presents an effective measurement model organized by seven principles that capture the fundamental managerial and technical concerns of development and sustainment. These principles guided the development of the measures presented in the paper. Data from the quantitative measures help organizational stakeholders make decisions about the performance of their overall software assurance processes. Complementary risk-based data help them make decisions relative to the assessment of risk. The quantitative and risk-based measures form a comprehensive model to assess program and organizational performance. An organization using this model will be able to assess its performance to ensure secure and trustworthy products.
