Investigation Of The Gas Phase Reactivity Of The 1-Adamantyl Radical Using A Distonic Radical Anion Approach, D. G. Harman, Stephen J. Blanksby Sep 2007

Investigation Of The Gas Phase Reactivity Of The 1-Adamantyl Radical Using A Distonic Radical Anion Approach, D. G. Harman, Stephen J. Blanksby

Faculty of Science - Papers (Archive)

The gas phase reactions of the bridgehead 3-carboxylato-1-adamantyl radical anion were observed with a series of neutral reagents using a modified electrospray ionisation linear ion trap mass spectrometer. This distonic radical anion was observed to undergo processes suggestive of radical reactivity including radical-radical combination reactions, substitution reactions and addition to carbon-carbon double bonds. The rate constants for reactions of the 3-carboxylato-1-adamantyl radical anion with the following reagents were measured (in units 10 12 cm3 molecule 1 s 1): 18O2 (85±4), NO (38.4±0.4), I2 (50±50), Br2 (8±2), CH3SSCH3 (12±2), styrene (1.20±0.03), CHCl3 (H abstraction 0.41±0.06, Cl abstraction 0.65±0.1), CDCl3 (D abstraction …

Organisational Control And The Self: Critiques And Normative Expectations, Karin Garrety Sep 2007

Organisational Control And The Self: Critiques And Normative Expectations, Karin Garrety

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

This article explores the normative assumptions about the self that are implicitly and explicitly embedded in critiques of organisational control. Two problematic aspects of control are examined – the capacity of some organisations to produce unquestioning commitment, and the elicitation of ‘false’ selves. Drawing on the work of Rom Harré, and some examples of organisational-self processes gone awry, I investigate the dynamics involved and how they violate the normative expectations that we hold regarding the self, particularly its moral autonomy and authenticity. The paper concludes by arguing that, despite post-structuralist challenges, some notion of a ‘core’ or ‘real’ self still …

Personal Bank Account Access And Awareness: An Analysis Of The Technological And Informational Constraints Of Australian Consumers, A. C. Worthington Sep 2007

Personal Bank Account Access And Awareness: An Analysis Of The Technological And Informational Constraints Of Australian Consumers, A. C. Worthington

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

Logit models are used to predict access and awareness of personal bank accounts. Access is defined as the ability and willingness to use ATM, EFTPOS, telephone and internet banking. Awareness relates to the understanding of bank statements, fee and charges, account shopping around and internet calculators. Newer ways of accessing bank accounts are confined to young, urban, well-educated, white-collar occupations. Awareness is lower for respondents with less education, non-workers, farm workers, unskilled and renting households, and higher for white-collar occupations, couples and those with higher incomes and savings.

Action Regulation Theory As A Tool For Qualitative Analysis, M. L. Jones Sep 2007

Action Regulation Theory As A Tool For Qualitative Analysis, M. L. Jones

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

This paper presents a method of qualitative analysis which has become quite popular in Europe, and in Scandinavia in particular, but has received little attention in Australia and Asia. Action Regulation Theory (ART) provides an analytical framework capable of providing organisational analysis at the micro level. The framework considers individual job design and work process issues The paper forwards an introductory glimpse of the theory providing researchers an idea of what it will do, where it comes from and how it works. It provides interested parties an idea of a new and alternate method of qualitative analysis in organisational environments. …

L’Organisation Au Service Des Droits Des Travailleurs Migrants: Le Militantisme Transnational À Singapour Et En Malaisie, Lenore T. Lyons Sep 2007

L’Organisation Au Service Des Droits Des Travailleurs Migrants: Le Militantisme Transnational À Singapour Et En Malaisie, Lenore T. Lyons

Faculty of Arts - Papers (Archive)

La mondialisation marque un point charnière dans l’action des militantes féministes et des organisations non gouvernementales. À la faveur d’une participation à des réseaux de lobbying transnationaux et d’alliances avec des organisations non gouvernementales internationales, des organisations féministes et des organisations vouées à la défense des droits des femmes, locales et nationales, se sont converties à de nouvelles formes de militantisme transnational. Cependant, il est une question qui n’a que très peu retenu l’attention des chercheurs dans le domaine de l’organisation féministe transnationale : c’est celle du lien entre le militantisme transnational et les théories qui sous-tendent les féminismes transnationaux. …

How Demographic Characteristics Affect Mode Preference In A Postal/Web Mixed-Mode Survey Of Australian Researchers, Kieren Diment, Samuel Garrett-Jones Sep 2007

How Demographic Characteristics Affect Mode Preference In A Postal/Web Mixed-Mode Survey Of Australian Researchers, Kieren Diment, Samuel Garrett-Jones

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

Early promise for the Internet as a tool to make social research questionnaires easier and cheaper to deliver is not fully realized. This study reports a mixed-mode survey of 1,100 Australian researchers. When respondents were given the choice to complete either web- or paper-based versions of a questionnaire, the majority chose the paper-based mode. Web respondents were more likely to be young, male, middle ranking, and working in information technology–related sectors. The authors highlight the need to determine how far alternate delivery modes increase response rates. For mixed-mode surveys to be financially and methodologically worthwhile, the authors propose that the …

Indonesian Muslim Masculinities In Australia, P. Nilan, Mike Donaldson, R. Howson Sep 2007

Indonesian Muslim Masculinities In Australia, P. Nilan, Mike Donaldson, R. Howson

Faculty of Arts - Papers (Archive)

This article is an inquiry into evolving forms of masculinity in Indonesia. It refers to data collected during a pilot project on the construction of Indonesian Muslim masculinities in Australia when Indonesian men arrive and encounter Anglo-Australian men. Using the technique of asking the Indonesian interviewees to comment on ‘Australian’ men allowed analysis of what the Indonesian men thought about their own cultural tropes of masculinity. It emerged that their gender construction coalesced around two important cultural nodes of discourse about how to be a ‘man’: firstly, the Indonesian urban interpretation of global ‘hypermasculinity’; and secondly, the moral role of …

Keywords To War: Reviving Language In An Age Of Terror, Mary Zournazi Aug 2007

Keywords To War: Reviving Language In An Age Of Terror, Mary Zournazi

Faculty of Arts - Papers (Archive)

Russian playwright Anton Chekhov once noted that there are two types of political freedom: one is freedom from violence, the other is freedom from lies. These freedoms have become the site of a modern conundrum, echoes of which can be heard today in the ways language is caught within spiralling cycles of violence and lies that serve to alienate us from ourselves and others. It is also evident in the political attitudes towards freedom and justice that have surfaced in the aftermath of the World Trade Center attacks and been fed by a climate of fearful and terrorising politics. Within …

An Empirical Survey Of Individual Consumer, Business Firm And Financial Institution Attitudes Towards Islamic Methods Of Finance, Alsadek H. Gait, Andrew C. Worthington

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

Islamic finance – financial institutions, products and services designed to comply with the central tenets of Sharia (Islamic law) – is one of the most rapidly growing segments in global financial services. However, despite its growing importance, it is only relatively recently that attempts have been made to evaluate the attitudes, perceptions and knowledge of current and potential consumers and providers of Islamic financial products and services. This article provides a synoptic survey of the comparatively few empirical analyses of attitudes, perceptions and knowledge of Islamic finance. Individual consumer, business firm and financial institution attitudes to Islamic finance are examined …

A Primer On Islamic Finance: Definitions, Sources, Principles And Methods, Alsadek H. Gait, Andrew C. Worthington Aug 2007

A Primer On Islamic Finance: Definitions, Sources, Principles And Methods, Alsadek H. Gait, Andrew C. Worthington

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

Islamic finance is one of the most rapidly growing segments of the global financial system. However, despite the increasing importance of Islamic finance, particularly in developing economies in the Middle East and South-East Asia, religious and social complexity has acted against a fuller understanding by regulators, policymakers, researchers and practitioners. This paper provides a succinct and accessible analysis of the definition, sources, principles and methods of Islamic finance. This serves as a suitable starting point for further work into Islamic finance and many of the pressing regulatory, supervisory and competitive issues that remain as yet unaddressed.

Reconnaissance Of Historic (Post-Ad 1000) High-Energy Deposits Along The Atlantic Coasts Of Southwest Britain, Ireland And Brittany, France, S. K. Haslett, Edward A. Bryant

Faculty of Science - Papers (Archive)

Sand and gravel deposits from the Atlantic coasts of southwest Britain, Brittany and western Ireland are identified as potential indicators of historic (post-AD 1000) ocean-sourced high-energy events, such as storm surges and tsunami. This is an important historic period as it includes the climatic perturbations of the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age, and also seismogenic events, such as the Lisbon tsunami of 1755. Ten new sites are identified from various coastal settings and dated using eight new radiocarbon dates alongside previously published data. Generally, sites do not appear to record multiple high-energy events, suggesting that either only …

A Comparative Analysis Of Oil As A Risk Factor In Australian Industry Stock Returns, 1980-2006, Evan J. Mcsweeney, Andrew C. Worthington

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

This paper uses a multifactor model to examine the role of crude oil as a pricing factor in Australian excess industry returns over the period January 1980 to August 2006. A dynamic model is also specified to provide insights into the relationship between the stock market and past oil price movements. The macroeconomic factors comprise the market portfolio, oil prices, exchange rates and the term premium. The nine industries include banking, diversified financials, energy, insurance, media, property trusts, materials, retailing and transportation. The results indicate that oil prices are an important determinant of returns in the banking, energy, materials, retailing …

Adaptation To High Temperatures Through Macromolecular Dynamics By Neutron Scattering, M. Tehei, G. Zaccai Aug 2007

Adaptation To High Temperatures Through Macromolecular Dynamics By Neutron Scattering, M. Tehei, G. Zaccai

Faculty of Science - Papers (Archive)

Work on the relationship between hyperthermophile protein dynamics, stability and activity is reviewed. Neutron spectroscopy has been applied to measure and compare the macromolecular dynamics of various hyperthermophilic and mesophilic proteins, under different conditions. First, molecular dynamics have been analyzed for the hyperthermophile malate dehydrogenase from Methanococcus jannaschii and a mesophilic homologue, the lactate dehydrogenase from Oryctolagus cunniculus (rabbit) muscle. The neutron scattering approach has provided independent measurements of the global flexibility and structural resilience of each protein, and it has been demonstrated that macromolecular dynamics represents one of the molecular mechanisms of thermoadaptation. The resilience was found to be …

Beyond Istj: A Discourse-Analytic Study Of The Use Of The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator As An Organisational Change Device In An Australian Industrial Firm, Karin Garrety

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

Although the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is widely deployed in work organisations, very little is known about how HR practitioners customise it for use, how employees react to being typed, and how (or if) they apply it in their daily work. This article reports the findings of a study that used interviews with HR practitioners and employees to investigate perceptions and uses of the MBTI in an Australian manufacturing site. A variety of interpretations and uses was found, illustrating that the effects of a device like the MBTI cannot simply be read off from the normative claims contained within it. …

An Embedded Model For Understanding The Development Of Accounting Control Systems In A Nonprofit Organisation, A. Abraham Jul 2007

An Embedded Model For Understanding The Development Of Accounting Control Systems In A Nonprofit Organisation, A. Abraham

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

How do nonprofit organisations (NPOs) demonstrate increased accountability? How can they develop appropriate accounting systems? Can accounting control systems be considered in isolation from organizational structure and culture? This study focuses on the application of an embedded model approach to understand the development of financial control systems in NPOs. This is illustrated by a historical case study of single NPO which, in turn, has implications for the understanding and design of accounting control systems across the nonprofit sector.

Introducing Reflective Strategies Informed By Problem-Based Learning To Enhance Cognitive Participation And Knowledge Transference In Graphic Design Education, Grant Ellmers, M. Foley Jul 2007

Introducing Reflective Strategies Informed By Problem-Based Learning To Enhance Cognitive Participation And Knowledge Transference In Graphic Design Education, Grant Ellmers, M. Foley

Faculty of Creative Arts - Papers (Archive)

This paper will outline and review a curriculum approach under development in the Graphic Design undergraduate program at the University of Wollongong. The curriculum approach in the past has drawn on a blending of studio-based and project-based learning, common approaches in many graphic design tertiary programs (Davies & Reid 2000). Our concern with these approaches is the emphasis on project outcomes, marginalising the design process and the important learning opportunities it presents. A potential solution the authors have explored is a greater formalised engagement with reflection (Boud, Keogh & Walker 1985; Schön 1987) informed by problem-based learning (Koschmann, Myers, Feltovich …

The Hollow Promise Of An Accounting Standard Setter, C. L. Cortese, H. J. Irvine, M. Kaidonis Jul 2007

The Hollow Promise Of An Accounting Standard Setter, C. L. Cortese, H. J. Irvine, M. Kaidonis

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

Purpose – This paper applies a power framework to critically analyse the international accounting standard setting process for the extractive industries. Design/methodology/approach – Publicly available data, including comment letters, annual reports, company websites, and IASC/IASB pronouncements, is used to make connections between the key plays involved in the international accounting standard setting process for the extractive industries. Findings – Lukes’ (1974) conception of power is used to explain the community of interests that developed between the IASC/IASB and extractive industries constituents. This community of interests is shown to have enabled the extractive industries to mobilise its power to paralyse the …

Beware The Reformers: A Machiavellian View Of The Accounting Profession And Public Sector Reform In Australia, C. Chau, K. A. Cooper, H. J. Irvine Jul 2007

Beware The Reformers: A Machiavellian View Of The Accounting Profession And Public Sector Reform In Australia, C. Chau, K. A. Cooper, H. J. Irvine

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

During the last two decades of New Public Management (NPM), reformist governments have transformed the principle underlying Australia’s government accountability from compliance to performance evaluation. This change has been instituted in three phases, against a backdrop of uncertainty, complexity, and the diverse interests of pressure groups. A Machiavellian interpretation of reform, focusing on resistance and power, proposes that the development of public sector accounting in Australia has been highly politicized and characterized by power battles between the accounting profession and government departments. This is illustrated by analyzing the process by which a policy for the valuation of public sector assets …

The Cultural Impact Of Information Systems – Through The Eyes Of Hofstede – A Critical Journey, M. L. Jones, I. Alony Jul 2007

The Cultural Impact Of Information Systems – Through The Eyes Of Hofstede – A Critical Journey, M. L. Jones, I. Alony

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

With the increasing levels of multiculturalism in today’s business and the proliferation and essentiality of information systems, development and management of IS needs to be considered in light of the cultural factors which impact upon its utility. Hofstede’s work on culture is the most widely cited in existence. His observations and analysis provide scholars and practitioners a valuable insight into the dynamics of cross-cultural relationships. However, such a groundbreaking body of work does not escape criticism. Hofstede has been dogged by academics discrediting his work in part or whole. Nonetheless, far more scholars exist who support Hofstede than those that …

Sharing Tacit Knowledge: A Case Study In The Australian Film Industry, I. Alony, G. Whymark, M. L. Jones

Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)

This paper explores tacit knowledge sharing. This case demonstrates the significance of knowledge sharing to organizational performance, by exploring the contribution of tacit knowledge sharing to the success of projects in the Australian Film Industry (AFI). The differences between knowledge sharing, collaboration and communication, and their interrelations are addressed. We also explore the concepts of knowledge, information, and data. In the interchanges reported here the knowledge shared is almost entirely tacit, and the “raw” data and information do not exist without the context that makes them knowledge. The paper includes the identification of many factors affecting knowledge sharing, not all …
