In Western personnel psychology, control beliefs are a valued predictor for work-related outcomes. Yet, little is known about the culture-specific functioning of control in East Africa. Kenya, as an Ubuntu culture, is examined regarding control beliefs and contrasted with a German sample considered to represent an individualistic or Western culture. Responses to N=143 quantitative personality tests were attended with qualitative interviews on control beliefs (self-concept of ability, internality, powerful others, and chance). Content validity and factor structure of control beliefs were analyzed, followed by a Procrustean target rotation. Linear regression analyses were conducted to assess the predictability of job performance, achievement motivation, and well-being. Item comprehension, as well as factor structure of the four control aspects, differ between the two samples. In particular, the ‘powerful others’ control aspect diverges the most between the cultures. Linear regression analyses showed comparable, but not fully congruent predictability. Results indicate that an uncritical transfer of the control beliefs measure from one culture to another is inappropriate. Results fit in the picture of African Ubuntu philosophy, emphasizing social-relational aspects shaping control beliefs. More emic-etic based research is demanded concerning intra- and intercultural variability of control beliefs to depict a transcultural applicable and invariant model.

This article contains a study of Kim Knott which gives a new offer in religious study. This is due to many universities store a number of constraints surrounding the study of religion. In addition, the occurrence of methodology stagnant in the students circumstance in applying explorative studies about religion. In this study, Knott tries to take eliminate the subjectivity element by aparting two basic problems; between emic perspective appeared from the studies of insider, and ethical perspective from outsider. In the end, Knott divides roles conceptions in empowering the social religious interconections into four elements; the pure participant, the observer as participant, the participant as observer, dan the pure observer. However, this pattern turns out to save a serious problem in the benchmark objectivity. Because the issue is whether the observer from outsider is excatly objective, reliable, and has scientific validity seen from the view of insider. In this regard, Knott tries to put both frameworks in the rapprochement method. This approach is an intersubjective solution to give a position of observer in the margin of appreciation as the border line between insider-outsider. With this approach, the religious study is expected will be more objective and distant from the subjectivity element.

L’article propose un dialogue avec les réflexions de Wolf Feurhahn sur le chercheur et le discours de ses objets, autour des temporalités, des points de vue, des étiquettes et des instruments conceptuels. Mais c’est la question de l’historicisme qui est au cœur de ce texte et de l’une des nombreuses manières possibles de l’appréhender : celle des effets de la temporalité sur la façon dont les historiens pensent leurs objets. Une double historicisation du chercheur et des objets émerge donc qui, au-delà du débat sur le problème du « relativisme », pose la question de l’accumulation des significations qui s’interposent entre l’observateur et ses objets d’étude. Ces regards successifs, à l’extrémité desquels se trouve le chercheur et à l’autre l’acteur, peuvent-ils être utilement étudiés dans leurs oscillations sur la base des étiquettes qui recouvrent et rendent intelligibles les objets ? D’autres questions s’ouvrent ici sur la base des possibilités presque illimités du langage : celles de ses usages et de sa traductibilité. The article proposes a dialogue with Wolf Feurhahn’s reflections on the researcher and the discourse of its objects. Dialogue around temporalities, points of view, labels and conceptual instruments. However, it is the question of historicism that is at the heart of this text and of one of the many possible ways of understanding it: that of the effects of temporality on the way historians think about their objects. A double historicization thus emerges, of the researcher and the objects, which, beyond the debate on the problem of “relativism”, raises the question of the accumulation of meanings that intermediate between the observer and his or her objects of study. Can these successive views, at one end of which is the researcher and at the other the actor, be usefully studied in their oscillations on the basis of the labels that cover and make the objects intelligible? Other questions open up here on the basis of the almost unlimited possibilities of language: that of its uses and its translatability.

Objective: The debate of whether personality traits are universal or culture-specific has been informed by psycholexical (or lexical) studies conducted in tens of languages and cultures. We contribute to this debate through a series of studies in which we investigated personality descriptors in Modern Standard Arabic, the variety of Arabic that is presumably common to about 26 countries and native to more than 200 million people. Method: We identified an appropriate source of personality descriptors, extracted them, and systematically reduced them to 167 personality traits that are common, are not redundant with each other, and are familiar and commonly understood in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and the West Bank (Palestinian Territories). Results: We then analyzed self- and peer-ratings (N = 806) and identified a 6-factor solution comprising Morality (I), Conscientiousness (II), Positive Emotionality (III), Dominance (IV), Agreeableness/Righteousness (V), and Emotional Stability (VI) without replicating an Openness factor. Conclusions: The factors were narrower or broader variants of factors found in the Big Five and HEXACO models. Conceptual and methodological consideration may have impacted the factor structure.

Između primorskih padina Velebita, južno od Senja, prostire se Podgorje koje bi se u svjetskim razmjerima usporedbi slobodno moglo opisivati kao podnožje hrvatskog Tibeta. Štoviše, naš prerano preminuli etnolog i antropolog, Tomo Vinšćak, koji je pohodio oba nebeska doticališta ustvrdio je da su Kailash i Velebit planinski srodnici – himalajski i hrvatski Olimp (1991). U ovom će se radu progovarati iz (iskustvom) prizemnijih uvida, no s jednakom upornošću zagovarati potreba smislenijeg upoznavanja specifičnosti ovog kraja i njegovih ljudi. Pa ako je podnožje hrvatskog Olimpa naizgled (nedostatkom iskustvene usporedbe) moguće definirati kao pretencioznom idealizacijom, ostaje faktografija mnogih disciplina, koje sinergijski presložene omogućavaju manje depresivno tumačenje kraja po njegove ljude. U ovom radu se takvo znanstveno združivanje pokušava doseći ispreplitanjem upotrebe antropoloških perspektiva (emsko-etsko) i Jungijanske analize iskustvene arhetipske sekvence koja povezuje autoricu s ovim krajem. Kraj je to čestog kolektivnog zaborava svih historiografskih činjenica koje potvrđuju da unatoč surovosti prirode koja se kroz buru i sušu stoljećima tu slijevala, te opisa da se iz toga kraja 'samo' bježalo i nestajalo zbog težine života, on ostao stjecište brojnih naroda i populacija. Sidrište mnogobrojnih kulturalnih, sakralnih i imaginativnih dimenzija za Hrvate, baš kao i jedna od konačnih destinacija najvećih hrvatskih migracijskih tijekova. U današnjim doslovnim i otrcanim postmodernističkim tumačenjima – kraj multikulturalnih susretišta unatoč in loco teških narativa života. Slijedom iste površnosti on postaje i kraj za kratkotrajno navraćanje u maniri sasvim ritualnog oblika pohoda na izazov divljine – od turistički brendiranog bazanja po Velebitu, pod geslom očuvanja neobuzdane prirode, do sasvim planiranog doživljaja išibanosti burom na senjskoj rivi. Kako sve navedeno ne bi ostalo samo na eko(nomsko)historijskoj potrazi simbolike, metafora i brikolaže mitova ovdje valja proširiti tumačenje specifičnosti lokaliteta i pridodati realitet biokulturalne povijesti. Tako, doprinosi istraživanja viševrsnih disciplina u području medicine već više dekada ukazuju na svojevrsni, rekli bismo, paradoks podgorske specifičnosti koji se ogleda u kontrastu mjesta teškog za življenje naspram poželjnog mjesta za doživjeti duboku starost, ili ako se hoće kozmološki i manje antropocentrično, starost neusmjerenu uživanju i ugodi. Konačni cilj analize ovog rada je (pre)usmjeravanje mogućih interesa za Podgorje s turistički-egzotično-isplativih kolonijalnih matrica na kozomološki-etičko shvaćanje, u kojem sprega čovjeka, prirode i povijesti zaslužuje puno šire sagledavanje njegove 'izdrživosti' u mjestu 'održivosti' ili 'revitaliziranosti'. Kozmološkim pristupom rečeno, svaka jednadžba neoliberalne ugode je ovdje neprimjenjiva, baš sasvim suprotno, obrnuto je proporcionalna povijesnim i biokulturalnim dokazima. Ustvrditi je – ništa začuđujuće u odnosu na mogućnost tumačenja tog kraja kao podnožja hrvatskog Olimpa., Between the littoral slopes of Velebit, south of Senj, stretches Podgorje, which in global dimensions could freely be described as the foothill of the Croatian Tibet. Moreover, our prematurely departed ethnologist and anthropologist, Tomo Vinšćak, who visited both heaventouching points, claimed that Kailash and Velebit were mountain relatives – the Himalayan and Croatian Olympus (1991). In this paper the need of a coherent familiarisation of the specificity of this region and its people will be brought up and also argued for with the same persistence from ground level insights (with experience). So if it is seemingly possible to define the foothill of the Croatian Olympus (with a lack of empirical comparison) as a pretentious idealisation, it remains the factography of many disciplines, which synergistically rearranged allow a less depressing interpretation of the region by its people. In this paper such a scientific association is sought to be reached with the intertwining of the use of anthropological perspectives (emic-etic) and a Jungian analysis of an empirical archetypal sequence that links the author with this region. This is a region of the frequent collective forgetfulness of all the historiographic facts, which confirm that despite the harshness of nature which has poured the 'bura' and drought down here over the centuries, and the description that from this region people just escaped and disappeared because of the difficulty of life, it has remained a junction of numerous peoples and populations. The anchor point of many cultural, sacral and imaginative dimensions for Croats, just like one of the final destinations of the largest Croatian migratory flows. In today’s literal and trite post modernistic interpretations – a region of multicultural encounters despite the in loco of the difficult narratives of life. Following the same superficiality, it also becomes a region for a brief drop by in the manner of an altogether ritual form of an expedition at the challenge of the wilderness – from the touristic branding of wandering through Velebit, under the motto of the preservation of untameable nature, to the altogether planned experience of being beaten by the 'bura' on the quayside of Senj. In order that everything mentioned is not left to just an eco(nomic)historical search of symbolism, metaphors and bricolages of myths, it would be good here to widen the interpretation of the specificity of the locality and to add the reality of bio-cultural history. Thus, the contributions of the research of many kinds of disciplines in the area of medicine have for decades already pointed to a kind of, let’s say, paradox of the Podgorje specificity,which is reflected in the contrast of a place of hard living compared to a desired place to live out old age or if wanted cosmologically and less anthropocentrically, an old age of open-ended enjoyment and comfort. The final aim of the analysis of this paper is the (re)direction of the possible interests for Podgorje with the touristic-exotic-profitable colonial matrices onto a cosmological-ethical understanding in which the interconnection of man, nature and history deserves a much wider perception of its 'endurance' instead of 'sustainability' or 'revitalisation'. With the cosmological approach said, each equation of neoliberal comfort here is inapplicable, quite the opposite, it is reversely proportionate to the historical and biocultural evidence. To conclude – nothing surprising in relation to the possibility of the interpretation of this region as the foothill of the Croatian Olympus.

El objetivo de esta presentación es mostrar los retos a los que nos sumergen las investigaciones en enfermería que aplica la metodología mixta, cualitativa y cuantitativa, o bien únicamente la metodología cualitativa. El tema de investigación surge, en un gran número de veces, en medio de nuestro ambiente de trabajo socio sanitario o clínico. La complejidad del cuidado, nos sitúa ante una diversidad de intervenciones al aplicar planes concretos en determinados grupos estudiados Aquí reflexionaremos sobre la observación participante, la perspectiva emic y etic y el proceso de investigación. Abrimos la pregunta a la reflexión teórica de los trabajos de investigación enfermeros. The aim of this work is to analyze the challenges faced by the researches in nursery. Those researches are broadly divided into qualitative and quantitative methodology. Sometimes it is used a mix methodology (between qualitative and quantitative) and some other times only qualitative is used. Many times, the research topic arises in the place where nursing is developed. The complexity of care, presents us with a variety of interventions to implement specific plans in certain groups studied. In this work I will study the participant observation, the emic and epic prospective and the research process. Thus, we want to open the debate on the theory applied in nursery research projects.
