In the business world, achieving the goals that have been planned depends very much on the factors that influence it. One of them is the factor of brand trust or brand trust. The concept of trust comes from the analysis of personal relationships in the field of social psychology. Social psychology discusses the influence of humans on others in terms of changing behavior, attitudes, communication patterns, and building trust.

In this situation where the individual cannot objectively evaluate the quality of the product in advance, brand trust plays an important role in reducing uncertainty in purchasing.This study focuses on the millennial generation of brand trust in buying interest in HWI products. Using a qualitative approach, with descriptive analysis. This study collected data through interviews, observations and documentation. The results of this study were that brand trust had an effect on buying interest in HWI products in the city of Ruteng Manggarai. Keywords: Brand Trust, Buying Interest, MLM Product

Abstract Toronto Community Housing (TCH) is the second largest social housing landlord in North America, and is home to over 27,000 older adults, half of whom live in 83 “seniors-designated” buildings. There is inadequate and inconsistent delivery of services in these buildings, negatively impacting tenants’ ability to age in place. We conducted two half-day consultations with service providers (n=74) and tenants (n=100) to identify strategies to improve unit condition, promote stable tenancies (i.e., prevent evictions) and enhance access to health and support services for older adults living in TCH. Through facilitated discussion, participants identified their top two recommendations for each priority area and reflected on the strategies that were hardest and easiest to implement, as well as the ones that would have the most and least impact on quality of life for older tenants. Participants recognized the need for more education as a way to empower older tenants and reduce stigma associated with unit condition issues (e.g., pest problems) and arrears. More frequent touch points with tenants was also recommended as a way to identify older adults at-risk of eviction and work proactively (instead of reactively) to support them. Service providers and tenants believed that system navigators working directly in the buildings would be a key facilitator to building trust and helping older tenants access needed services. Outcomes of the have several program and policy implications for TCH, as they partner with the City of Toronto to design a new integrated service model for the seniors-designated buildings.

The Impact

Purpose – This paper aims to add to the understanding of knowledge sharing in online communities through an investigation of the relationship between individual participant’s motivations and management in open source software (OSS) communities. Drawing on a review of literature concerning knowledge sharing in organisations, the factors that motivate participants to share their knowledge in OSS communities, and the management of such communities, it is hypothesised that the quality of management influences the extent to which the motivations of members actually result in knowledge sharing. Design/methodology/approach – To test the hypothesis, quantitative data were collected through an online questionnaire survey of OSS web developers with the aim of gathering respondents’ opinions concerning knowledge sharing, motivations to share knowledge and satisfaction with the management of OSS projects. Factor analysis, descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and regression analysis were used to explore the survey data. Findings – The analysis of the data reveals that the individual participant’s satisfaction with the management of an OSS project is an important factor influencing the extent of their personal contribution to a community. Originality/value – Little attention has been devoted to understanding the impact of management in OSS communities. Focused on OSS developers specialising in web development, the findings of this paper offer an important original contribution to understanding the connections between individual members’ satisfaction with management and their motivations to contribute to an OSS project. The findings reveal that motivations to share knowledge in online communities are influenced by the quality of management. Consequently, the findings suggest that appropriate management can enhance knowledge sharing in OSS projects and online communities, and organisations more generally.

Level Analysis

When we examine the quality of life for each individual, several specific dimensions need to be considered. Health conditions and quality of family relationships are critical. When the individual in question is married, his/her marital quality is important. When he/she has a job, subjective assessment of that job is important. Social relationships regarding friends, neighbors, colleagues, relatives, etc. may be critical also. Although the quality of life is more than the sum of qualities of these specific areas of one's life, it is still determined to a great extent by the qualities of these sub-areas, including marital and family relationships (Proulxet al., 2007).

Livability reflects the quality of the person–environment relationship, namely how well the built environment or the available services in a city fulfill the residents’ needs and expectations. We argue that livability assessment can aid the implementation of certain New Urban Agenda (NUA) goals by providing a flexible way to assess urban environments and their quality. However, a reliable and transferable assessment framework requires the key elements of livability to be defined in such a way that measurable factors adequately represent the person–environment relationship. As an innovative approach, we determined key livability elements accordingly and asked over 400 residents worldwide to evaluate their urban environments using these parameters. Thereby, we could calibrate the livability assessment workflow by including personal aspects and identifying the most relevant livability factors through an ordinal regression analysis. Next, we performed relational-statistical learning in order to define the individual and combined contribution of these statistically significant factors to the overall livability of a place. We found that urban form and mobility-related factors tend to have the highest influence on residential satisfaction. Finally, we tested the robustness of the assessment by using geospatial analysis to model the livability for the city of Vienna, Austria. We concluded that the workflow allows for a reliable livability assessment and for further utilization in urban planning, improving urban quality by going beyond simple city rankings.

Children do not only need intelligence in the academic field but also in interacting with others in accordance with the prevailing moral norms in society. Intelligence is influenced by parenting. In Indonesia, parenting of working parents’ families is usually carried out by grandmothers, household assistants, and daycare providers. This study aims to analyze differences in the moral intelligence of children raised by grandmothers, household assistants, and daycare providers. A total of 208 children aged 5-6 years (106 boys and 102 girls) in the city of Semarang, who were willing and approved by parents, were involved in this study. The children’s moral intelligence score in this study was obtained through storytelling test techniques presented by the researcher verbally, considering that early childhood children cannot read fluently. Data analysis techniques used descriptive analysis and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with the help of SPSS 20.0 for Windows. The results of this study differed from previous studies in that there is no difference in the moral intelligence of children aged 5-6 years in the city of Semarang that is raised by grandmothers, household assistants, and daycare providers. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the roles of grandmothers, household assistants, and daycare providers are no different in fostering moral intelligence in early childhood. The level of moral intelligence of early childhood can also be influenced by the individual, age, social interaction, education, and the context of the situation. Discusses the moral intelligence of young children who are cared for by grandmothers, household assistants, and daycare providers

Abstract Aim This study aimed to assess the situation of outpatient multidisciplinary cancer rehabilitation in Switzerland as of March 2018. Subject and methods Seventeen programmes providing outpatient cancer rehabilitation were identified; 12 in the German-speaking, 4 in the French-speaking and 1 in the Italian-speaking part of Switzerland. Structure, organisation, type of programme and details on therapies offered were assessed. Difference by language regions and the status of the programme (running vs in development) were examined in a descriptive analysis. Results Centres in the German- and Italian-speaking parts had mostly individual modular programmes with a longer duration (median: 12 weeks) and low intensity (median: 2.5–3 h per week). The French-speaking part had standard programmes with a shorter duration (median: 9 weeks) but higher intensity (median: 5.5 h per week) and a higher number of obligatory modules a patient must attend (median: 2 instead of 1). The language regions also showed differences in duration of therapies, communication, indications and screening instruments. Conclusion Outpatient cancer rehabilitation in Switzerland is characterized by a wide range of programmes. These differences between language regions, as well as between the individual programmes, highlight important variables that may influence the efficiency and the quality of the different programmes; understanding these variables could lead to improvements in cancer rehabilitation in Switzerland.

Satisfaction Analysis

This paper presents the non-exhaustive description of the main characteristics of visitors based on the filled out questionnaires during five months following the test month. These characteristics will serve the basis of a satisfaction analysis to be described in the future and they provide guidance for later analyses. I performed the testing of my questionnaire in January 2014. It turned out even from the data collected in the test phase that there were services which did not meet the expectations of visitors several times as it was worse than what they expected. This study focuses on the questionnaire research conducted among foreign visitors coming to Debrecen by flight. The main aspects were to determine foreign visitors purpose of travel to Debrecen, how many times they had already been to Debrecen, how many days they spent in the city, what kind of services did they use and whether the quality of used service met their expectations. As a result of the following five months research, I obtained input data which make it possible to examine real problems with background data. It calls for further examination to determine whether there was any difference in the extent of services living up to visitors’ expectation and visitors’ level of satisfaction.
