Union Leadership and Member Attitudes: A Multi-Level Analysis

[Excerpt] Analyses of union leadership roles show that union presidents should have both a within-union focus and an external focus. The authors combined multi-level survey data from 3,871 union members in 248 local teachers’ unions with archival and field staff data to examine relationships between leadership and members’ perceptions of union instrumentality and justice, union commitment, and participation. The results showed significant union-level effects on members’ beliefs about, and attitudes toward, their unions, attributable to the presidents’ internal and external leadership, wage outcomes, and union characteristics. Relationships between internally focused leadership and members’ loyalty and willingness to work for the union were partially mediated by perceptions of union instrumentality and justice. These perceptions fully mediated the relationship between externally focused leadership and union loyalty

Defamiliarization through modality of discourse: Waiting for Godot

Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot (1954) is a parody of the world following World War II. The play exemplifies the spirit of the age by using defamiliarization as a textual strategy by means of which the characters utilize epistemic modals leading their conversational exchanges to never-ending voidness and uncertainty. Therefore, this study analyses discoursal features of Waiting for Godot by focusing on modality as the primary means for a void and indecisive attitude that is created through defamiliarization. The study further exemplifies how Beckett’s use of defamiliarization foregrounds epistemic modality to create a discourse unique in his authorial path.En attendant Godot (1954), de Samuel Beckett, es una parodia del mundo posterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La obra ejemplifica el espíritu de la época al utilizar la desfamiliarización como estrategia textual mediante la cual los personajes se valen de modales epistémicos que conducen sus intercambios conversacionales a un vacío e incertidumbre interminables. Por lo tanto, este estudio analiza las características discursivas de En attendant Godot centrándose en la modalidad como medio principal para una actitud vacía e indecisa que se crea a través de la desfamiliarización. El estudio ejemplifica, además, cómo el uso de Beckett de la desfamiliarización pone en primer plano la modalidad epistémica para crear un discurso único en su trayectoria autoral.En attendant Godot (1954) de Samuel Beckett est une parodie du monde de l'après-guerre. La pièce illustre l'esprit du temps en utilisant la défamiliarisation comme une stratégie textuelle par laquelle les personnages utilisent des manières épistémiques qui conduisent leurs échanges conversationnels vers un vide et une incertitude sans fin. Par conséquent, cette étude analyse les caractéristiques discursives de En attendant Godot en se concentrant sur la modalité comme moyen principal pour une attitude vide et indécise qui est créée par la défamiliarisation. L'étude montre également comment l'utilisation de la défamiliarisation par Beckett met en avant la modalité épistémique pour créer un discours unique dans sa trajectoire d'auteur

Screening of Tomatoes for Their Resistance to Salinity and Drought Stress

In the study, 55 tomato genotypes have been investigated for their responses against salinity stresses in 48 day old early plant growth stage. For these purposes, several morphological and physiological measurements and analysis have been done in stressed plants. Shoot and root dry weights, plant height, leaf number, leaf area, relative water content, stomatal conductance, leaf osmotic potential, leaf water potential, shoot K, Ca and Cl concentrations were measured and analyzed. Salt and drought tolerant and sensitive (intolerant) genotypes have been found out according to the responses of the tomato genotypes to the above mentioned morphological and physiological parameters. At the end of the study, the fifty-five tomato genotypes were classified as tolerant, mildly tolerant or susceptible. Shoot dry weight, plant total leaf area, leaf water potential, leaf osmotic potential, stomatal conductance, K, Ca, Na and Cl concentrations in shoot and root, K/Na, Ca/Na, membrane injury index and visual appearance of damages were more relevant parameter for screening studies. Keywords: Stress, saline, water, tolerance, selection, breedin

Synthesis and biological evaluation of platinum complexes of highly functionalized aroylaminocarbo-N-thioyl prolinate containing tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,3(2H,3aH)-dione moieties

Platinum complexes, derived from two families of bidentate funcionalized aroylaminocarbo-N-thyoyl prolinates, are prepared using mild conditions from prolinates, which are available via 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions. The resulting four coordinated neutral square-planar platinum(II) complexes are very stable and are fully characterized. Their structures are determined by spectroscopic and analytical methods and one of them by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In this pattern, the platinum exhibits distorted square planar geometry, with cis-bond angles ranging from 89.42(2) and 94.37(6)° and trans-bond angles of 176.19(6) and 177.08(6)°, respectively. Anti(myco)bacterial and antifungal studies of all these new compounds are carried out under standardized protocols.This work is a part of Samet Belveren's ongoing PhD thesis granted by Mersin University (Project no.
