  La investigación de mercados resulta beneficiosa en diversas situaciones; sin embargo, la decisión de realizarla no es automática, esta decisión debe sustentarse en consideraciones previas de muchos aspectos, entre los cuales se puede mencionar, la comparación entre costos y beneficios, los recursos disponibles para realizarla y para llevarla a la práctica, así como la actitud de la gerencia hacia su realización. Por lo cual, debería efectuarse cuando el valor de la información que se genera, supera los costos de llevarla a cabo. Cuanto más importante sea la decisión frente a la que se enfrenta la administración y mayor sea la incertidumbre o el riesgo que ésta implica, mayor será el valor de la información obtenida. La investigación de mercados, suele realizarse, por empresas comerciales que son organizaciones independientes (proveedores externos) o departamentos dentro de las corporaciones (proveedores internos). La motivación en las utilidades en ocasiones hace que los investigadores o los clientes pongan en riesgo la objetividad o profesionalismo asociados con el proceso. Como investigadores, esto despierta nuestro interés y mediante encuestas realizadas en varias empresas dentro de la provincia de Manabí, se pretende dar a conocer el impacto que genera la investigación de mercados en la toma de decisiones por la gerencia, es decir, una vez realizado un análisis previo de la situación de la empresa, cuán importante es aplicar o no aplicar la investigación de mercados.   Palabras clave: Planificación, análisis, empresas, consumidores, competencia, estrategias.   ABSTRACT Market research is beneficial in various situations; however, the decision to make it is not automatic, this decision must be based on previous considerations of many aspects, among which we can mention, the comparison between costs and benefits, the resources available to carry it out and to put it into practice, as well as the attitude of management towards its realization. Therefore, it should be done when the value of the information generated, exceeds the costs of carrying it out. The more important the decision faced by management and the greater the uncertainty or the risk involved, the greater the value of the information obtained. Market research is usually carried out by commercial companies that are independent organizations (external suppliers) or departments within corporations (internal suppliers). Motivation in profits sometimes causes researchers or clients to put at risk the objectivity or professionalism associated with the process. As researchers, this arouses our interest and through surveys carried out in several companies within the province of Manabí, it aims to publicize the impact that generates the market research in decision making by the management, namely, once a previous analysis of the situation of the company, how important it is to apply or not to apply market research.   Key words: Planning, analysis, companies, consumers, competition, strategies.

AbstractCo-production affords an intervention’s target population the opportunity to participate in intervention theory decision-making during the development process. This addresses the over-reliance on developing interventions through academic theories which can be devoid of contextual understanding and result in challenges to implementing school-based health programmes. There is an emergent empirical literature on co-producing school-based health interventions, but an understanding of appropriate theoretical types and processes and stakeholders’ experiences is lacking. Through the conduct of a systematic review, this study seeks to understand the types and underlying theories and processes for co-production in school-based health interventions with students aged 11–16. A thematic synthesis explored stakeholders’ experiences of the different types of co-production. A systematic search of five electronic bibliographic databases, citation tracking of included studies, and consultation with an expert international panel were employed. Of 27,433 unique papers, 30 papers representing 22 studies were retained to describe types, and 23 papers of 18 studies used to synthesise stakeholders’ experiences. Three types were identified: external, individual-level, and system-level capacity-building. Whilst this review showed variability in co-production types, stakeholders involved and processes, shared functions were identified. Students’, school staff, facilitators’ and researchers’ experiences in terms of acceptability, feasibility and undertaking decision-making are discussed. Recommendations for conceptualising and reporting co-production and process evaluations of co-produced school-based health interventions are highlighted.

ABSTRACTUsually in medicine was considered that the technical evaluation and the ethical are different, and that the first has nothing to do with the second. However, it is a mistake to say that science and technology, are completely neutral. Both assessments are based on values and epistemological orientation they have in each historical moment is based on values. In this article we analyze this issue, which has ranged from analysis of emotion to the valuation analysis, and from there to the analysis of decision making. These decisions affect research, technical applications, and also to strictly clinical areas. Patients are not only people with any disease, but also value-laden people that the clinician has to consider. Provide patient care as a moral being is one of the objectives of a value-based medicine and, therefore, patient-centered.RESUMENGeneralmente en medicina se ha considerado que la evaluación técnica y la evaluación ética son distintas, y que una no tiene nada que ver con la otra. Sin embargo, es un error decir que la ciencia, y también la técnica, son completamente neutras. Ambas evaluaciones se fundan en valores, y la orientación epistemológica que conforman en cada momento histórico está atravesada por valores. En el presente artículo queremos llamar la atención sobre este problema, pasando del análisis de la emoción al análisis de la valoración, y desde ahí al análisis de la toma de decisiones. Estas decisiones afectan a la investigación, a las aplicaciones técnicas, y también a los ámbitos estrictamente clínicos. Los pacientes no son únicamente personas enfermas, sino también personas con valores que el clínico ha de tener en cuenta. Recuperar al paciente como ser moral es uno de los retos de una medicina basada en valores y, por tanto, centrada en el paciente.

Aim: In the practice of awarding public contracts, sometimes the behavior of market actors, instead of competing with other entities, are aimed at illegal cooperation, including bid rigging. The above shows that healthy competition is not possible without efficient market control. In public procurement market this control is, primarily, carried out by public procurement entities: the President of the Public Procurement Office (Prezes UZP) and the National Appeal Chamber (KIO), and furthermore by President od the Office of Competition (Prezes UOKiK) and Consumer Protection and the Court od Competition and Consumer Protection. and Consumer Protection (SOKiK). The interesting issue is how the activities of the President of Office of Competition and Consumer Protection targeted  to contend with bid rigging affects on the activities of President of the Public Procurement Office (Prezes UZP) or the National Appeal Chamber (KIO). Design / Research methods: analysis and comparison decisions/ judgment issued by the President of the Public Procurement Office, National Appeal Chamber, the President of  the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection and the Court of Competition and Consumer Protection. Conclusions: The analysis has shown that the existence of specificities in the activities of the decision-making bodies and the judgments examined. However, in keeping with the specificity of the forms and objectives of control, these entities should cooperate, to a greater extent than before. Expanding the scope of cooperation would make it possible to better contend with bid rigging without changing the competition protection model. The introduction of institutionalized instruments for cooperation between the authorities seems to be valuable in terms of system solutions. Value of the article: The main value of the article is the comparison of selectively selected decisions and judgments representative of the problem under consideration and their comparative analysis in order to achieve the research objectives. The article deals with issues relevant to both public procurement practitioners and the state bodies dealing with procurement matters.

SUMMARY Materiality remains a challenging concept for auditors to implement in practice. The challenges underlying auditor materiality assessments are compounded by the fact that courts, regulation, and professional standards emphasize that materiality should be based on a “reasonable investor” perspective. Despite the investor orientation and ambiguous nature of the “reasonable investor” criterion, the extant literature lacks empirical evidence about investor materiality judgments and decision-making. To address this problem, we model sophisticated and unsophisticated investors' materiality judgments in a policy-capturing study and compare them to experienced auditors charged with assessing materiality from an investor perspective. The results indicate significant differences in materiality judgments, judgment consensus, and cue utilization among the three participant groups. We conclude the paper with discussion of the study's implications, highlighting that the overall results suggest the need for further consideration of ways to help auditors meet standards and expectations in this critical domain.
