This work is included in a wider research project started on 2003 with autistic patients and their families. In this context we'll just expose treatments about families where the child diagnosed as autistic has an age between 3 and 18 years. The restriction of the group is given by the choice of displaying similar situations where children are living with their families and attend school in an integrated way. So we present a psychotherapeutic method which is totally similar to that usually used by the authors when the patient is a child. The approaching way as well, already experimented for a long time by the authors and proposed in other writings, here sheds light upon its amazing efficiency within family therapy, especially with patients who are neglected by systemic therapists, because they are children and above all because they are non-speaking children.

Trainings as well as their impact on employability and employees’ performance have been the subject of interest of theoreticians and practitioners of management for a long time. However, according to the literature study, the outcomes of employees’ trainings also depend on the applied style of leadership as well as on the quality of relationships between supervisors and subordinates. This paper tries to answer the question: what are the relationships between transformational leadership, the quality of supervisors’ relationships with subordinates, employees’ trainings and employability, employees’ quality and effort of work in public organizations? This aim will be achieved by presenting the results of literature study and empirical research carried out in public organizations. <font size="2"><sup>1</sup>The research project has been financed with the funds of the National Centre for Science granted under the Decision No. DEC‑2013/11/B/HS4/00561.</font>

Selecting a research topic is an integral part of graduate studies. According to Skip Brass, Associate Dean and Director of the MD-PhD program at the University of Pennsylvania, you need to “pick a problem that interests you. You will be living with it for a long time. Make sure it is something you will want to wrestle with even when the going gets rough. It has to make you want to get up early, work late, come in on the weekend, and think about it in the shower.” This paper aims to make the process of choosing and evaluating a research topic a little easier through providing some helpful steps in formulating a successful project.

In keeping with new narrative metaphors in the family therapy field and new epistemological approaches to clinical interaction, literature as a paradigm for qualitative inquiry and evaluation is discussed. Description of a research project that explores how fictional literature can be integrated into graduate programs reveals a multi-layered, aesthetic approach to family therapy research and training as well as the design of project-specific methodology (Chenail, 1992a).

Alliance at Work – Observation research on the working relationship between care providers and families in intensive outreach family treatment Alliance is an important common factor in the treatment of youth and family problems. When working with multiple family members, building and maintaining strong alliances can be particularly challenging. Alliance at Work (Alliantie in Beeld) is a research project that investigates how alliance processes affect the treatment outcome of IAG, a Dutch homebased family preservation program. Two videotaped IAG sessions of sixty families are analyzed with the System for Observing Family Therapy Alliances. Participants completed the working alliance inventory and treatment outcomes were monitored. Methodological implications and relevance of this observational research project are discussed.

I poured myself a bit of rakija, everyone in the flat was asleep, the light was dim and almost no sounds entered from the outside. I was browsing through documents, thoughts, photos and audio collages of Chrysa’s research project ‘Documenting experimental authorship’. I was listening to her podcast titled Value of Dance as Practice. I got immersed in her voice, in handwritten pages, in words that became poetry, in details of space that shape her dance. And after a very long time I felt someone was speaking my language, the language of a dancer. I knew I had to talk to her. The following interview happened online on a Tuesday afternoon, in December 2020.

The Canada 150 Conference on Migration of Bengalis was triggered by our academic as well as personal desires to establish broadly the history of migration of Bengalis or Bangla-speaking people to Canada. As long-time researchers on Asian immigrants in Canada, and through our involvement in the Metropolis Research Project, we realized that there was hardly any published material on Canadian Bengalis. Therefore, in 2017, on the eve of Canada’s 150th anniversary, we took the opportunity to celebrate and document the history and contemporary trends of Bengali immigrants in Canada.

University of Entrepreneurship and Law in Czech Republic has long time been dedicated to the research which relate to the identification of creative and innovative companies. These companies are characterized by a creative and innovative approach to their own companies and their products. The paper presents among others authors’ experience which they have come within the research project of “Model of Creative and Innovative Organizations and Its Verification in Conditions of the Moravian-Silesian Region”. An integral part of the research project was also a questionnaire for data collection and an analytical tool for the data analysis. This project was realized in 2014 and it followed up the several earlier research works concerning the identification of creative and also innovative companies in the Moravian-Silesian Region. Currently, the authors have been still improving the methods of identification of creative and innovative companies. The paper submits some of our practical experience.

Abstract People, professionals and non-professionals, lonely and non-lonely, experience difficulties in talking about loneliness. Yet, talking about loneliness is important. Without conversation about loneliness, it is impossible to identify lonely persons and to assist them in a tailor-made way. The aim of this research project is to create evidence-based instruments to make talking about loneliness easier. From 2016 to 2019 (ongoing) six researchers held about 60-70 interviews with lonely persons, discussing feelings of loneliness and coping behavior. After the first 23 interviews with lonely older adults, a qualitative analysis on how to discuss loneliness was performed, resulting in a format for talking about loneliness and a topic list to help in conversations. These instruments were tested in the remaining interviews with lonely older adults and students, after which the format and topic list were updated. The format for talking about loneliness discusses guidelines for the inter human relationship, how to bring up the topic of loneliness, and what to discuss, e.g. feelings, timing, coping, consequences and taboo. ‘What to discuss’ is also addressed in the topic list. It is important to not be eager to help. Often, lonely people have felt so for a long time and considered many coping options. This illustrates complexity. Trying to ‘solve’ loneliness with oversimplified suggestions makes people feel that their situation is not taken seriously. These instruments emphasize the importance of true listening. The instruments can be used to train professionals and volunteers who want to discuss loneliness with lonely people.

Abstract An amount of data measured with sensors is increasing year to year. Every sensor has a location and sensor data are mostly measured for long time period, so visualization of location and regular updating of visualized value is necessary. Various characteristics (e.g. meteorological conditions) can be automatically read at frequent intervals and those readings can be aggregated into the interactive map visualization. This map must be not only legible but also understandable also for readers that are experts in their specialisation, however, not in cartography. This paper presents possibilities of using and implementation of adaptive cartography and visual seeking principles for interactive visualization and analysis of sensor based data measured in real time. Our solution is described on experimental application for precise farming that we developed during research project Agrisensor.
