Collaboration Over Avoidance: Conflict Management Strategies In State-Owned Enterprises In China, Shuang Liu, Guo-Ming Chen

Communication Studies Faculty Publications

This study reports the application of Organizational Communication Conflict Instrument in Chinese state-owned enterprise. Principal component analysis has revealed a 5-factor structure, which conceptually corresponds to the five conflict strategies proposed by Blake and Mouton. Results also indicate that the frequency of employing the five strategies is in the rank order of collaboration, competition, compromise and accommodation, and avoidance. The impact of demographic data on conflict strategies as well was explored. Findings reinforce the argument that the study of conflict strategies should take cultural context into consideration and that the models developed in the West may not work successfully in …

Assessing Student Learning Of Content And Computer Skills In Instructional Technology, Mary L. Hallett

Mathematical and Computing Sciences Masters

Computer-based technology has been implemented in schools throughout America with the goal of improving student learning and teaching practices, and preparing individuals for a highly technical world.

The purpose of the study was to create an assessment tool that would measure student learning of content and technological skills. Three case studies of fourth-grade students were conducted while completing Internet and multimedia activities. Utilizing the qualitative methodologies of interviewing, field notes, journals, student work, and written artifacts, data was collected on how computer technology impacts …

Extraction Of Silymarin Compounds From Milk Thistle (Silybum Marianum) Seed Using Hot, Liquid Water As The Solvent, J.F. Alvarez Barreto Jan 2002

Extraction Of Silymarin Compounds From Milk Thistle (Silybum Marianum) Seed Using Hot, Liquid Water As The Solvent, J.F. Alvarez Barreto

Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal

High value specialty chemicals are usually obtained from natural products by extracting with generally regarded as safe (GRAS) solvents. Because organic solvents are quite often used, high operating and disposal costs often occur. When compared to traditional solvents, water can be viewed as an interesting alternative because of its low operating and disposal costs. Milk thistle contains compounds (taxifolin, silychristin, silydianin, silybinin A and silybinin B) that display hepatoxic protection properties. This paper examines the batch extraction of silymarin compounds from milk thistle seed meal in 50'C, 70'C, 85'C and 100'C water as a function of time. For taxifolin, silychristin, …

Agency In The Life Course: Concepts And Processes, Lisa J. Crockett Jan 2002

Agency In The Life Course: Concepts And Processes, Lisa J. Crockett

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

The capacity of humans to influence their lives has long been a theme within Western literature, philosophy, and psychology. In recent years, the theme of human agency has crystallized in the psychological literature in the concepts of control, self-regulation, and self-efficacy. As a result, considerable attention has been devoted to the psychological processes through which control is exerted, such as cognitive appraisals, goal setting, and planning, as well as control beliefs and the potentially debilitating effects of loss of control (e.g., Bandura, 1997; Boekaerts, Pintrich, & Zeidner, 2000; Carver & Scheier, 1998; Seligman, 1975). Although this body of work has …

E-Pluribus Unum?: The Problem Of Anonymous Election-Related Communications On The Internet, Paul A. Werner, Iii

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

This Note discusses an aspect of this fundamental question in the context of one provision of the FECA. The FECA's identification requirement, section 441d, prohibits anonymous communications via mass media when any person makes an expenditure for the purpose of financing communications expressly advocating the election or defeat of clearly identified candidates. The mass media included are broadcast, print, direct mail, outdoor advertising facilities, and any other general public political advertising. Communications triggering this provision must contain clear information identifying who paid for and who authorized them. The statute delineates three possible required disclosures: (1) that the communication has been …
