Author(s): Alice Nĕmcová- Tejkalová,Filip Láb / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2016

Who are Czech journalists and what do they do? Based on data from 291 interviews with Czech journalists working in the news media at various levels between 2012 and 2014, for the Worlds of Journalism Study (www.worldsofjournalism.org), the paper introduces for the first time an overview of the most important results of the Czech part of the study. We present an analysis of the data on journalists’ working conditions, the most and least important perceived influences on their work, as well as their level of trust in various institutions, recent significant changes perceived in their profession and the professional roles they prefer. The basic demographic data of our sample is also given. The survey was done in two phases, between which significant media ownership changes took place, making the results highly up-to-date. We conclude that the position of journalists is changing. Journalists are required to write more stories than before, yet have less time to research them. Although they assert the importance of journalistic ethics, they have also perceived that ethical standards have somewhat weakened recently. Nevertheless, they express a high level of autonomy and freedom in their work.

Multidimensional and comparative study on intellectual capital and organisational performance

Author(s): Boris Urban,Gabriël Coenraad Daniël Stoltz Joubert / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2017

Intellectual capital (IC) as the knowledge-based equity of organizations is increasingly recognised as an important value contributor to performance. By building on previous research, the study examines the IC components of human capital, structural capital and relational capital as they relate to organisational performance. Following past international studies, a model is developed and statistically tested. A survey is administered to firms across several industries and data is analysed employing structural equation modelling. Recognising that replications and extensions of IC studies are vital to knowledge development, comparisons with international studies are made. The results provide support for the hypotheses where relationships between the IC components and performance are evident. These findings suggest that it is crucial for an organisation to optimise the utilisation of its human capital for the sake of optimising its structural capital, which leads to higher performance. By positioning the study in terms of IC literature, the study offers the ability to compare the present study findings with similar findings across countries.

Author(s): Tamara Efendić-Spahić,Elvis Vardo / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 4/2017

Professional burnout is usually defined as a set of symptoms in the form of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal and professional fulfillment of pleasure because of participation in professional and personal activities. Dispositional characteristics are a significant risk factor for the development of burnout syndrome. Research conducted on a sample of 248 junior students at the Department of Philosophy in Tuzla, was aimed to determine the association between personality traits and intensity of burnout students. Examination of personality traits used A shortened version of the questionnaire Five factor personality (BFI Big Five Inventory) was used for examination of personality traits, which enables self-assessment of respondents on the five basic dimensions of personality. For the purpose of evaluation of academic burnout, we used the questionnaire of academic burnout (Schaufeli et al., 2002) that measures the level of burnout in academic terms. When checking the hypothesis we used multiple regression analysis, in which the basic dimensions of personality were treated as predictor, and academic burnout as a criterion variable. The results show that the symptoms of academic burnout are present with the junior students of different study profiles (M = 44.34, SD = 11.61), and that personality traits systematized through the five-factor model is a significant predictor of academic burnout (R = 0.56 df = 5, p = 0.00) and explained 31.9% of the total variability of academic burnout. From the personality traits that contribute most to the explanation of academic burnout are Conscientiousness (β = -0.373; p = 0.000), Neuroticism (β = 0.141; p = 0.03) and Openness (β = -0.164; p = 0.01). The research results show consistency with similar studies, and indicate the importance of compliance review program content with the possibilities of their implementation by the students, and the adaptation of the study program professional aspirations of students.

The personalistic view of responsibility: case study

Author(s): Vilma Šliužaitė,Laimutė Anužienė,Aivaras Anužis / Language(s): English Issue: 26/2015

The importance of responsibility in one‘s personal and professional life is undeniable. Employers expect their employees to have a responsible attitude towards their work. „Being responsible“ is seen as one of the necessary characteristics of a professional specialist. But what does „being responsible“ actually mean? What behavior is expected from a responsible employee? The term responsibility has many different meanings, which may cause problems in communication between employers and their employees setting clear expectations about the results that must be carried out at work. Responding to this problem, the authors of this article have set the goal of presenting the personality view of responsibility. Based on the theoretical part, the awareness and attitude of the employees of KMVTC towards the value of responsibility is explored. Research question: what dimensions of the personality conception of responsibility show up in KMVTC employees’ attitudes towards responsibility? The survey was conducted by presenting an open-ended questionnaire, designed using the unfinished sentences method. During August, 2014 the questionnaires were distributed among 180 employees. The filled-in questionnaires were returned by 101 employees. The qualitative data analysis applied the qualitative content analysis method. The survey results have shown that the respondents’ statements on their attitude towards responsibility are only partially in line with the dimensions of the personality conception of responsibility. While a fair number of respondents identify responsibility with one’s commitment to oneself or others, a number of the survey participants tend to have a legalistic view of responsibility, reducing it to the observance of certain decrees and regulations, making no direct link with the responsibility for another human being or oneself. The survey results indicate that KMVTC employees have quite different interpretations of the value of responsibility, tending to narrow its meaning. This proves the need to foster a deeper understanding of responsibility among employees

Magic, emotions and film producers: unlocking the “black-box” of film production

Author(s): Dorota Ostrowska / Language(s): English Issue: 22/2013

The starting point in the article is production culture research. Dorota Ostrowska points that – contradictory to promises – this approach still failed to provide analysis showing connection between production culture and textual characteristic of particular films. She mentions a few successful research en-devours aimed to highlight that connection such as Wisconsin researches classical Hollywood cinema examining. Then Ostrowska proposes Flusser’s reflections and Action-Network Theory as promising theoretical backgrounds for production culture research. In conclusion she points also the perspective originated in organisational science (subdivision of management studies) as a worthy tool to application in film production studies. This approaches is based on close examining of organization also in emotional and sensual terms. Ostrowska argues that emotional dimension of cinema, which is traditionally high lightened, could be also connected with production process and work of film crews.
