The article deals with the evaluation of the internal organizational behavior of the employees of the company, i.e the attempt to convert the behavior of the workers employed in various business operations into coefficients and thus to determine the extent to which the behavior of the employees determines the fulfillment of individual tasks (plans). The article evaluates the current 11 operations in the company. Newstrom-Davis methodology and conditional digital information of the company are used for this purpose. In the article, the author develops the idea that if this or that operation plan is completed, then the evaluation coefficient will be one, if not less. Plans for two of the 11 surgeries were overstaffed, with less than nine surgeries. As a result, the total evaluation of 11 operations was not 11, but 7,874. The author of the article considers that this is the average state of internal organizational behavior of the company's staff and advises companies to study the psychological characteristics of employees and, along with the professional mark, to take these characteristics into account in the recruitment process because of internal organizational behavior. Keywords: Internal organizational behavior; Staff; Psychological characteristics; Evaluation of internal organizational behavior.

Naspers, a South African media conglomerate worth US$64 billion in 2016, operates across a range of media and information platforms in 120 countries, including many ‘emerging markets’. Naspers is an exemplar of media markets’ contraflow, conceptualised as the movement of information, media content, consumer goods and capital from the ‘developing world’ into more developed markets. This study examines (a) how Naspers has diversified its core media holdings (print and satellite) into digital information service providers and e-commerce; (b) how this was achieved both globally and domestically; and (c) how this diversification allowed Naspers to maintain its pre-eminent position in the South African media market. South African financial magazine articles, between 2010 and 2014, reporting on Naspers’ globalisation are thematically examined with regard to globalisation, diversification, ownership and control and collaboration. These themes frame a political economy analysis of how Naspers penetrated, expanded and solidified its e-commerce business operations nationally and globally.

The Internet/Intranet with inherent features like easy access, real-time information, and low cost, is a natural driver for business operations solution. Further, related to Internet/Intranet, the Web is very critical component. Web makes the application easy to use and provides an intuitive way for users to interact.Web offers tremendous time and cost savings for corporate operations. Web based operations management is operating businesses in the Internet world. It is about using the power of digital information to understand the needs and preferences of customers and partners, to customize products and services for them, and then deliver the products and services as quickly as possible. Automated services offer businesses the potential to increase revenues, lower costs, and establish and strengthen customers and partner relationships. To achieve these benefits, many enterprises engage in electronic commerce for business operations. In the future, Web will be common tool in any activities for both individual and enterprises.

An approach to improve municipal company’s motivation system to impower its economic security is proposed in the article.  The approach is based both on division of motivative factors into three groups (tangible, intangible and intrinsic) and on reveal of correlation between the importance of an exact group of motivative factors (dependable feature) and such individual-psychological characteristics of employee’s personality, as the level of extra / introversion and neuroticism (undependable features).  The importance to improve the performance of the municipal company’s motivation system because of the number and origin of threats it faces in the process of its activity is substantiated. It is shown that the unsatisfactory level of efficiency of activity of state-owned enterprises, their economic security, as a consequence, - waste of resources of the territorial community is explained, in particular, by the low level of motivation of work in such organizations. It was found that, despite close attention to the problem of motivation in the scientific works of domestic and foreign researchers, the tools of effective management were mostly developed for the private sector. Improving management in budgetary institutions is by borrowing methods and techniques from private sector. It is shown that for a municipal company an effective system of motivation must be built taking into account such factors that employees perceive as really important in the process of meeting their sound needs, taking into account the limited budget. Applied tools for monitoring motivative factors, division them into groups (tangible, intangible, intrinsic), forming a list of the most meaningful factors using ABC-XYZ analyze are proposed. Due to the results of the analyze the structure of the most and the least meaningful factors of motivation for the organizational behavior of employees is descried. Regression models which allow to forecast the importance of an exact group of motivative factors related to the employee’s level of extra / introversion and neuroticism have been formed. The prospect of introducing a model of motivational controlling, which will allow to improve the efficiency of the functioning of the system of motivation by increasing the level of coordination of planning, accounting and analysis processes in order to ensure the economic security of the municipal company.

Quantitative recording of electron patterns and their rapid conversion into digital information is an outstanding goal which the photoplate fails to solve satisfactorily. For a long time, LLL-TV cameras have been used for EM adjustment but due to their inferior pixel number they were never a real alternative to the photoplate. This situation has changed with the availability of scientific grade slow-scan charged coupled devices (CCD) with pixel numbers exceeding 106, photometric accuracy and, by Peltier cooling, both excellent storage and noise figures previously inaccessible in image detection technology. Again the electron image is converted into a photon image fed to the CCD by some light optical transfer link. Subsequently, some technical solutions are discussed using the detection quantum efficiency (DQE), resolution, pixel number and exposure range as figures of merit.A key quantity is the number of electron-hole pairs released in the CCD sensor by a single primary electron (PE) which can be estimated from the energy deposit ΔE in the scintillator,

It has been estimated that graphology is used by over 80% of European companies as part of their personnel recruitment process. And yet, after over three decades of research into the validity of graphology as a means of assessing personality, we are left with a legacy of equivocal results. For every experiment that has provided evidence to show that graphologists are able to identify personality traits from features of handwriting, there are just as many to show that, under rigorously controlled conditions, graphologists perform no better than chance expectations. In light of this confusion, this paper takes a different approach to the subject by focusing on the rationale and modus operandi of graphology. When we take a closer look at the academic literature, we note that there is no discussion of the actual rules by which graphologists make their assessments of personality from handwriting samples. Examination of these rules reveals a practice founded upon analogy, symbolism, and metaphor in the absence of empirical studies that have established the associations between particular features of handwriting and personality traits proposed by graphologists. These rules guide both popular graphology and that practiced by professional graphologists in personnel selection.

Abstract. It has been suggested that people perceive psychological characteristics of situations on eight major dimensions ( Rauthmann et al., 2014 ): The “Situational Eight” DIAMONDS (Duty, Intellect, Adversity, Mating, pOsitivity, Negativity, Deception, Sociality). These dimensions have been captured with the 32-item RSQ-8. The current work optimizes the RSQ-8 to derive more economical yet informative and precise scales, captured in the newly developed S8*. Nomological associations of the original RSQ-8 and the S8* with situation cues (extracted from written situation descriptions) were compared. Application areas of the S8* are outlined.
