The Difference

AbstractWe explore the migration-trade nexus in the case of Germany over the period 2000-09, disentangling the two dimensions of intra-industry trade (vertical and horizontal). We find that immigration is positively and significantly related to intraindustry trade. However, the magnitude and statistical significance of migration’s impact on trade are considerably higher for horizontal intra-industry trade and increase with the difference in the level of development between Germany and the partner countries. This pattern is consistent with the view that information flows between migrant communities and their country of origin may be more important for consumer goods (where trade in varieties prevails) and that this information effect is more important if trading countries are very different.

The Impact

This study aimed to identify children`s perceptions regarding the role of religion in their education, their religious belonging, the parent's role in their religious education, and the attitude they have towards other religions. To gather quantitative data regarding the opinion the 10-14 age children have on religion and religious education, a survey was performed in several schools in Albania and Kosovo urban and rural areas (720 students from 8 schools of Durres, 4 in rural areas, and 473 students from 8 schools of Pristina and the surrounding area). A questionnaire was used to fulfill the purpose of the research regarding the knowledge, attitudes, and the perceptions of 10-14 age group on religious education in schools. At the same time, studies of national and international authors were consulted for a better analysis of the problems raised in the questionnaires such as the role and the importance of intercultural education in the coexistence and the harmony between people of different cultures, the education on The Fundamental Rights, the role of the curricula in schools, the difference between families in the rural and urban areas and the effect of the parents’ education on children. The results of the study showed that children of this age group receive the first knowledge about religion from the family. An irreplaceable role in religious education has the media. The school involvement in giving knowledge on religious beliefs in both studied regions will positively influence pupil’s formation, eliminating this way the violation of other people religion that often is present in our schools and not only. A correlation between the tolerance of parents and the tolerance of their children resulted as the consequence of the care that families show to respect different religions and often even sects.

Study Participants

Background: The role of hormones in the female body is well known in reproductive age. Several studies have been conducted regarding hormonal fluctuations and their association with obsessive-compulsive disorder, but the role of psychological issues relevant to it has been ignored and only hormonal fluctuation and its impact were the target. Thus, the main purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between Self-Concept Clarity (SCC) and obsessive-compulsive tendencies (Obsessive-Compulsive Concerns about Cleanliness (OCC) and Obsessive-Compulsive concerns about Harm and Injury (OCHI)). Another objective was to identify the difference between SCC, OCC, and OCHI in healthy and unhealthy females. Methods: A sample of (N=210) females, an equal number of healthy and unhealthy females, from different hospitals and the general population, with a mean age of 21 years, was selected by using convenience sampling technique as a type of non-probability sampling. Study participants were selected from the same city. Results: Comparison of healthy and unhealthy females revealed high levels of SCC and obsessive-compulsive tendencies among unhealthy females and also a significant positive correlation was found between these constructs. Conclusion: The females with irregular hormonal fluctuations develop obsessive-compulsive tendencies and these people are most sensitive to unimportant affairs, even sensitive to themselves that might create clarity in their self-concept.

The purpose of the study was to determine the role of self concept on adjustment among middle aged women. Self concept is the way people think about themselves including their abilities, physical features, goals and social roles. Adjustment refers to the process by which an individual makes an adequate relationship with his environment and satisfies his needs. M.R. Rastogi’s Self Concept Scale and Global Adjustment Inventory of Psy-com services was used for obtaining data. The sample consisted of 120 married women with age range 30- 45 years selected by means of purposive random technique of sampling. Regression analysis and t-test was used to analyze data. Results indicated that self concept influences adjustment of women positively.

S Curve

Abstract The spine of language changeIn his contribution to the 2005 anniversary issue of the journal Nederlandse Taalkunde, Fred Weerman remarked on the famous S-curve underlying language change, and claimed that a good explanation for this pattern is still lacking. We pick up the thread and assess what 15 years of research have clarified about the nature of the curve. We look at two aspects: the onset of the curve (also known as the ‘actuation problem’), and the sigmoid trajectory (known as ‘propagation’). For the actuation problem, we highlight the role of external variables, notably the role of cities in what kind of changes are more likely to occur. Higher urbanization leads to morphological simplification. For the propagation, we investigate the underlying mathematics of the curve, and its conceptual motivation. We argue that the lesser-known probit function is conceptually more insightful than the commonly used logit function, and marginally outperforms the latter as well, when tested on real data. The difference is so small, however, that in actual practice, the logit function, which is mathematically simpler, may continue to be preferred

Internet is the face of growing technological advancement. On one hand it helps acquiring information, makes communication across the globe easy, while on the other hand, it can result in over dependency or Problematic Internet Use. This phenomena is more commonly reported in adolescents. Considering the importance of parental and peer attachment and the family atmosphere during this vulnerable phase, the present study was undertaken to find the role of attachment and family environment in discriminating between high and low PIU among adolescents. A sample of 611 in the age group of 13-18 years were assessed using PIUQ (Demetrovics et al., 2008), IPPA (Armsden & Greenberg, 1987), and FES (Moos & Moos, 1983). The results obtained indicate that the selected variables could significantly (Wilk’s Lambda = .735, p< .001) discriminate between the two groups: high and low Problematic Internet Users.

Abstract This study seeks to define the role of corporate brands in achieving business excellence by conducting a field study on the agencies of Algerian mobile operators “Mobilis” and “Djezzy” in the state of Djelfa where the questionnaire has been used for the collection of opinions sample (45 employees) and then processed with the statistical program (SPSS). The results have shown that there is high awareness of corporate brands and business excellence. We have also found that the two dimensions of corporate brand (strategic vision, stakeholder image) affect the business excellence, whereas the organizational culture does not affect it. The results have also demonstrated that corporate brands as a group explain 47 % of the variation in business excellence, while the difference test have demonstrated that the awareness of the sample about “corporate brands” is not different according to the company but the awareness of the business excellence is in favor of the company “Mobilis” at the expense of the mobile operator “Djezzy”.

With the help of the discourse on healthiness in times of a demographic change it is shown how subjectivization in the institutions of biopolitics like healthcare takes place. In the light of new technical capacities, in which biotechnology and information technology converge, the role of processes of standardization and the experience of suffering for subjectivization is exposed. Subjectivization appears not in the manner of a philosophical struggle for concepts, but in a narrative articulation of an experience of difference. The human being is - to say it with Wilhelm Schapp - entangled in stories which run contrary to general and typological concepts. These stories are articulations of deviation and the contrary. The singularity of the own existence and its dignity becomes clear in understanding the difference between the common conception of man and the self-concept. The discussion is developed in four questions: 1) How we can define healthiness in times of transformation the historically mediated and in the first-person-view given human ?Leib? to a body, which is given in a third-person-view? 2) How we can catch the change of our understanding of healthiness in the light of new technical possibilities which enhance our physical capacities? 3) Which metaphysics - as an unarticulated presupposition -manifests behind this change? 4) Which role plays this metaphysics in the institutions of biopolitics?
