Capturing the broader picture of value co-creation management

The interactional, interdependent, and dynamic nature of value co-creation has made value management in business relationships a particularly challenging issue for both academicians and practitioners. In addition, studies on this topic have mostly focused on managing value co-creation in isolation from the wider relational context without completely capturing the influence of other value processes on value co-creation. This paper examines the broader picture of value co-creation management by providing a model based on interlinked value processes, namely, value communication, value appropriation, value measurement, and value representation. We adopted a qualitative approach based on 86 interviews with managers of both customer and supplier companies, which operated in different industries. Results showed that the management of value co-creation implies considering complex patterns of interconnections with other value processes. In particular, the study will shed light on the centrality of value appropriation to co-create value and on the importance of value representation to coordinate ideas and enable future co-creation opportunities.     

Social work students' conception on roles within the family in Greece

The present article is based on a small-scale research that took place with third-year students in the department of social work at Technological Educational Institute of Patras. During class the students, who undertake the laboratory course ‘Social Work with Families’, were asked to discuss family roles and depict them on drawings. Analysing their drawings in a qualitative approach the findings suggest that students adopt traditional views on family issues and the family roles. Various gender stereotypes and prejudices were reflected in students' drawings and this is alarming for both social work education and practice.     

Associations between sleep consolidation in infancy and peer relationships in middle childhood

Sleep plays an important role in many aspects of children's development. Research on children's sleep and their peer relationships has begun to emerge in the last years. However, these studies are mostly cross‐sectional. The current study aimed to investigate the associations between infant sleep and peer relationships in middle childhood. The sample comprised 72 children. Sleep was measured at 1 year using a sleep diary completed by mothers. In the second and third grades of elementary school (7 and 8 years of age), mothers and fathers reported on their children's functioning with peers. When they were in third grade, children were interviewed regarding their friendship quality with a best friend. Results revealed negative associations between children's sleep consolidation (i.e., ratio of nighttime sleep) and parent‐reported peer problems, and positive associations between sleep consolidation and perceived friendship quality. These findings suggest that well‐regulated sleep in infancy may help children develop the skills necessary for later appropriate social functioning in peer contexts.

社会转型与人际关系结构的变化--由情感型人际关系结构向理性型人际关系结构的转化

人们结成一定的人际关系结构是由人的需要决定的 ,而人的需要又可以简单地分为情感需要和理性需要 ,与此相应 ,人际关系结构可以分为情感型人际关系和理性型人际关系。在中国长期的传统社会里 ,由于受传统社会结构的影响 ,人际关系结构明显表现为以情感为核心 ,重情不重理是传统中国人行为的普遍逻辑。但是 ,当前我国正处于社会转型时期 ,社会结构正发生着急剧的变化 ,人际交往中理性成分日益增加 ,人际关系结构表现出由情感型人际关系结构向理性型人际关系结构变化的趋势 ,我们必须对此有着清醒的认识。

儒、释、道的人际交往观比较研究

人是自然属性和社会属性高度集中的统一体,社会生产关系是决定人际交往关系的决定因素。人们在社会生产生活中必然发生某种关系,可统称为人际关系或社会关系。儒家、佛教、道教均有其各自的人际交往理论和实践,认真总结儒、释、道三家人际交往的经验教训,是建设具有中国特色社会主义新文化的时代要求。     

法律关系客体之探究

受法律调整的社会关系即为法律关系 ,受刑法调整的社会关系即为刑事法律关系。刑事法律关系的客体应是刑事法律关系主体双方权利和义务所指向的、受刑法所保护的、被犯罪行为所破坏的社会关系 ,不应是具体的物、智力成果、行为。法理学、民法学、经济法学中均将法律关系客体界定为物、智力成果和行为 ,与刑事法律关系客体不一致。在理论上应将其统一起来
