This article discusses methods of assessment of the trunk "Customers" for the ISUP re-engineering. We have used two tools: • Current state assessment of service quality using tree chart of indicators on four trunks: Customers, Process, Owners and the State. • Action plan development based on the Kobayashi PROF methodology. Evaluation of the trunk "Customers" (q1) is conducted in three branches: P1 - functionality, P2 - convenience, P3 - emotional background. Functionality is evaluated by type of work and sufficient level of Reliability, Responsibility, Availability and Sociability of each of them in relation to all applications. Convenience is estimated by means of survey of customers by means of questioning on the website by criteria (leaves): comfort, the interface, conflict situations, feedback, emergency situations and functionality Emotional background is assessed by analyzing changes in the emotional background of communication and is based on the content analysis of the text. All messages from the user are considered to be text. The proposed tree-like information model of structure construction of indicators makes it possible to assess the quality of services in the field of ISUP support at the enterprises of the radio-electronic industry.

The aim of this paper is to closely examine the ways in which the outdoor mural as a form of art. has been used for commemorative purposes in the context of the Polish capital. Drawing on content analysis this paper will argue that regardless of their democratic potential and potential to act subversively in the public domain, the commemorative murals in the case of Warsaw are predominantly reflecting the official narrations/representations of the past and thus reproducing the state-supported, nation-centered, male-dominated perspective of history. Referring to Wulf Kansteiner methodological instructions, the paper introduces the notion of “secondary” memory makers in order to describe the position the mural makers are occupying in the field of Warsaw’s cultural memory. It will also be argued that mural makers, by adapting their works to the demands of the cultural institutions responsible for the memory production and dominant discourses of memory from mainly pragmatic reasons, are forgoing a fair portion of the democratic and subversive potential of the murals. As such, the paintings on the walls are, intentionally or not, further involved in more complex state-sponsored strategies of nationalizing the public space.

Emergency Department Discharge

Quality emergency department (ED) discharge communication is critical to understanding of disease progression, home management, and return instructions. Addressing social aspects of disease burden are important to improving satisfaction and healthcare utilization. The objective of this study was to understand the extent to which written ED discharge instructions address multifaceted aspects of disease to meet the comprehensive needs of families with common childhood illnesses. We analyzed a national sample of 28 written discharge instructions from pediatric EDs using thematic and inductive content analysis. Seven themes were identified. Nearly all discharge instructions devoted a majority of content to themes related to disease physiology. Other themes common to instructions were related to parental instructions for caring for the child and when to return for further care. Content on caregiver reassurance, returning to daily activities, improving well-being, and promoting community health were not a focus of discharge instructions. Inclusion of multifaceted discharge materials which address both medical and social aspects of disease may help improve family-centered emergency care and the quality of care transitions for common childhood illnesses.

Projective stories possess some advantages in comparison to the questionnaires. They provide considerable amount of additional information about subjects’ current state and the motives. Nevertheless, they are also not free from the effects of censorship and social desirability. The list of content analysis scales in this study was the following: 1) “Affiliation”, 2) “Frustration of Affiliation”, 3) “Long-term relationships”, 4) “Rivalry”, 5)”Loyalty”, 6) “Achievement”, 7) “Hope”, 8) “Egoistic benefit”, 9) “Impulse control”, 10) “Struggle of motives”, 11) “Negative emotions”, 12) “Negative events”, as well as the three scales for detection of desire to avoid projection: a)”Abandon of the task” (stories shorter than 20 words), b) “Description”, c) «Either, or». Also some of the indicators were adopted: “Fear to live” – sum of “Negative events” and “Negative emotions” scales; “Hardness” that is subtraction of “Negative emotions” from “Negative events”; “General avoidance of projection” that is the sum of “Abandon”, “Description” and “Either, or”. Validity of the scales was checked and proofed through the multiple comparisons within the three samples: students of Humanities, students of the Moscow Aviation University and MosEmerCom dispatchers. This work was supported by grant RFH №12-06-00647.

The Relationship

Purpose Despite recent organizational behavior studies have witnessed considerable progress in abusive supervision research; some demerits for both theory and methodology still remain in the past years. To clarify the current state of knowledge in the field, this study aims to analyze the current state of theories and methods on abusive supervision and provides a detailed future research agenda. Design/methodology/approach This paper conducted a literature review for both theory and methodology of the abusive supervision research using a content analysis of 134 publications. Findings For the theory part, this paper summarized the theories that had been applied to explain the relationship between abusive supervision and its consequences as well as antecedents. For the methodology part, this paper outlined some critical issues regarding country of origin, research design, measurement, analysis strategy and also summarized with a discussion of the relationship between methodological issues and article impact. Finally, this paper concluded by presenting an agenda for future abusive supervision research regarding both theory and methodology. Originality/value First, this paper summarizes the main theories, antecedents and consequences often used in abusive supervision research to allow scholars to carry out theoretically driven research investigating abusive supervision in the future. Second, through a content analysis of the methods sections of abusive supervision research in the samples (i.e. country of origin, research design, measurement and analytical procedures), this paper identified the potential reasons underlying the inconsistency in the conclusions of abusive supervision research and provide some guidance for future empirical studies. Third, based on the qualitative review, this paper provides an agenda for future research investigating abusive supervision by developing a content-specific theoretical framework to benchmark abusive supervision research against other research related to leadership and offers an accurate response to scholars’ criticisms of abusive supervision research.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to build on Dumay and Cai’s (2014) prior research to provide a deeper analysis of the problems associated with using content analysis (CA) as a research methodology for investigating intellectual capital disclosure (ICD). Design/methodology/approach – Totally, 110 articles utilising CA as a research methodology for inquiring into ICD are analysed based on Krippendorff’s (2013) conceptual CA research framework and design logic, and tied into issues relating to CA as a research methodology for investigating ICD. Findings – The authors advocate that ICD CA researchers need to go back to the drawing board and ensure that future studies rigorously apply the basic logic of CA design. In its current state, ICD CA research needs to take a few steps back, before it can move forward. If ICD CA researchers can accomplish this, then there is an opportunity to undertake rigorous research to develop reliable and valid outputs that add to new knowledge about IC. Research limitations/implications – The main limitations of the research are the chosen sample of CA-based ICD articles and the adoption of the Krippendorff’s framework. However, the authors have identified the main corpus of CA-based ICD studies and since Krippendorff is the only recognised comprehensive text on CA as a methodology, the authors use the most appropriate data and framework possible for the analysis. Originality/value – Prior CA studies have laid the foundation for what is a popular research methodology. However, the authors argue that the popularity of CA as a research method for investigating ICD has become so great that at times the research methodology “drives the research questions” as opposed to the “research questions driving the methodology” Hence, this research examines reasons for CA limited contemporary contribution and recommends how this may be overcome rather than prescribing how to conduct ICD CA research.

Author uses secondary analysis of the results of empirical sociological and statistical studies to identify the main trends in the development of non-government organizations (NGOs) in Ukraine: the growing number of registered NGOs; increasing number of non-government social organizations and increasing number of implemented projects for the provision of social services to internally displaced persons, anti-terrorist operation participants and people who belong to vulnerable groups, or/and are in complicated life circumstances. The purpose of the article is to consider the current state of social responsibility of NGOs in Ukraine. The social responsibility of NGOs is defined in the paper as “a characteristic that is integrated into the activities of the NGO based on its Statute and implemented in practice by providing services on a professional basis, following international norms, to achieve socially significant goals, solving acute social problems, ensuring sustainable development of the community, the region, and the country as a whole”. To have an in-depth study of the basic principles of social responsibility of NGOs, the author conducted a content analysis of 200 websites of NGOs. Content analysis questionnaire included such indicators as annual financial report; annual non-financial report; NGO’s development strategy; information about partners, etc. The main indicators of social responsibility of NGOs are in compliance of the organization’s charter developed according to requirements of the current Ukrainian legislation and the provisions of international standards; transparent activities taking into account the interests of stakeholders, availability of annual reports (financial and non-financial), etc.
