Where loyalties lie: A study of workplace dissent through the lens of loyalty

This thesis studied organizational dissent through the lens of loyalty in order to examine the nuanced motivations of employees\u27 choices to dissent. The goal of this work was to approach loyalty as a nuanced concept that provides a foundational motivation for employees\u27 dissent. In order to understand the contextualized experience of dissent, I conducted individual interviews with 17 employees in the radiology department of a healthcare organization. I adopted a grounded theory approach to data analysis, yielding a series of major findings. First, participants described their loyalties in the workplace as multiple and involving four distinct dimensions: organizational loyalty, coworker loyalty, patient loyalty, and personal loyalty. Participants also acknowledged that their multiple loyalties sometimes cross paths. Thus, employees continuously weigh their loyalties in their decisions to speak up or remain silent. In addition, I found that employees\u27 dissent experiences were deeply related to loyalty. When discussing the perceptions of others\u27 dissent, their actions were deemed loyal or disloyal based on the personality of the dissenter and the motivation for the dissent (e.g., patient concerns yield loyal dissent; personal concerns yield disloyal dissent). In comparison, participants described their own actions of dissent as being motivated by multiple nuanced loyalties. Employees always defended their own actions of dissent as loyal, regardless of the motivating loyalty ( e.g., personal concerns may be just as loyalty as patient concerns). All of these findings reflect the broader cultural understanding of both loyalty and dissent within the organization. I found that both macro level (top leaders\u27) attitudes toward dissent and micro level (direct supervisors\u27) attitudes toward dissent influenced the employees\u27 perceptions of loyalty and likelihood of dissenting. Ultimately, this work contributes to the scholarly discussion of dissent by exploring the nuanced motivations of dissent and the influence of loyalty on dissent. In addition, the dimensions of loyalty framework proposed in this thesis contributes to the theoretical and practical discussions of loyalty by suggesting that loyalties are multiple and significantly influence communication decisions in the workplace

Background: The group that has been vulnerable to the abandonment of reproductive health rights in Indonesia is adolescents. The lack of adolescents\u27 awareness toward their behaviors in maintaining genital organs cleanliness is due to socio-cultural limitations might cause negative impact toward their reproductive health. This study aimed at analyzing the socio-cultural aspects that influenced the behaviors in treating healthy reproductive organs among female senior high school students in the City of Surakarta.Subjects and Method: This was a mixed-method study with quantitative and qualitative approach. This study was conducted in State Senior High School 1, Al-Islam 1 Senior High School and Regina Pacis Senior High School; all of these senior high schools were located in the City of Surakarta, from February to March 2017. A total of 120 subjects were selected by stratified random sampling. In addition, the sample also included 5 mothers and fathers who had been selected by purposive sampling. The dependent variable was the behaviors in treating reproductive organs. The independent variables were knowledge toward reproduction organ health, family support, toilet/ bathroom availability, clean water availability, culture and information exposure. The dependent and independent variables were collected by a set of questionnaire and analyzed by path analysis. The qualitative data were collected by in-depth interview and analyzed by Miles Huberman method.Results: The behaviors in treating reproductive organ were influenced by good knowledge (b= 0.21; SE= 0.09; p= 0.020), high information exposure (b= 0.20; SE= 0.07; p= 0.005), positive culture (b= 0.15; SE= 0.07; p= 0.039), toilet/ bathroom availability (b= 0.21; SE= 0.07; p= 0.026), clean water availability (b= 0.14; SE= 0.08; p= 0.073) and strong family support (b= 0.16; SE= 0.08; p= 0.041). Then, the knowledge of reproductive health was influenced by high information exposure (b= 0.31; SE= 0.07; p<0.001) and positive culture (b= 0.16; SE= 0.07; p= 0.016).Conclusions: The behaviors in treating reproductive organs are influenced by good knowledge, high information exposure, positive culture, toilet availability, clean water availability and strong family support. The knowledge of reproductive health are influenced by high information exposure and positive culture.Keyword: precede-proceed, path analysis, socio-culture, reproductive healthCorrespondence: Santy Irene Putri.

Prothrombin Fragment 1.2 (F1.2) in Relation with Plasma Leakage Dan Thrombocytopenia in Dengue Infection

Latar belakang: Manifestasi klinis demam berdarah Dengue (DBD) adalah kebocoran plasma dan trombositopenia. Salah satu teori penyebab kedua hal tersebut adalah kadar trombin yang meningkat akibat aktivasi koagulasi. Kadar trombin dapat diwakili oleh kadar F1.2. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan antara kadar F1.2 dengan kebocoran plasma dan trombositopenia pada infeksi Dengue. Metode: Desain penelitian ini adalah potong lintang, mengggunakan plasma EDTA dari pasien terinfeksi virus Dengue. Subyek penelitian adalah 10 subyek dengan kebocoran plasma dan 10 subyek tanpa kebocoran plasma pada infeksi Dengue, 6 sampel berpasangan untuk perbandingan fase kritis dan fase konvalesen, 26 sampel untuk uji korelasi antara kadar F1.2 dengan jumlah trombosit. Hasil: Penelitian menunjukkan kadar F1.2 pada pasien terinfeksi virus Dengue dengan kebocoran plasma (rerata ± 2SD) 147,4 ± 105,82 pg/mL lebih tinggi secara bermakna dibanding tanpa kebocoran plasma 51,3 ±39,92 pg/mL. Kadar F1.2 pada fase kritis dengan median 186,3 (108,6-223,2) pg/mL lebih tinggi secara bermakna dibanding fase konvalesen 46,5 (27,4-51,9) pg/mL. Terdapat korelasi negatif yang bermakna dengan kekuatan sedang antara kadar F1.2 dengan jumlah trombosit, nilai r = - 0,609. Kesimpulan: Terdapat peningkatan aktivasi koagulasi yang ditunjukkan dengan peningkatan kadar F1.2 pada fase kritis, berkaitan dengan kebocoran plasma dan trombositopenia pada pasien terinfeksi virus Dengue. Kata kunci: infeksi Dengue, kebocoran plasma, trombin, fragmen protrombin (F1.2), trombositopenia Background: Clinical manifestations of Dengue hemorrhagic fever are plasma leakage and thrombocytopenia. Both manifestations are thought to be caused by an increased thrombin level due to activation of coagulation. The aim of this study is to look for any association between F1.2 level and plasma leakage and also between F1.2 level and thrombocytopenia in Dengue infected patients. Methods: This study used EDTA plasma from patients infected with Dengue virus. The study design was cross sectional. The thrombin level was represented by the prothrombin fragment 1.2 (F1.2) level. Twenty subjects were enrolled in this study, consisted of 10 subjects with plasma leakage and 10 without plasma leakage, 6 pairs of samples in critical phase and convalescent phase, 26 samples for correlation test between F1.2 level and platelet count. Results: In this study, it was found that the F1.2 level in patients with plasma leakage (mean ± 2 SD) 147.4 ± 105.82 pg/mL is significantly higher compared to patients without plasma leakage 51.3 ±39.92 pg/mL, and the F1.2 level in critical phase has a median of 186.3 (108.6-223.2) pg/mL which is significantly higher compared to convalescent phase 46.5(27.4-51.9) pg/mL. Also it was found that a medium negative correlation between F1.2 level and the thrombocyte count existed, r = - 0.609. Conclusion: The results of the study suggest that there was increased coagulation activation at critical phase in patients infected with Dengue virus associated with plasma leakage and thrombocytopenia

Validation of astronaut psychological select-in criteria

An optional astronaut selection strategy would select-in individuals on the basis of personality attributes associated with superior performance. Method: A test battery, the Astronaut Personal Characteristics Inventory (ASTROPCI) was developed which assesses positive and negative components of achievement, motivation, and interpersonal orientations and skills. The battery was administered to one hundred three astronaut candidates and sixty-six current U.S. Shuttle astronauts. To determine performance, a series of conceptual areas related to space flight performance were defined. Astronauts rated their peers on each of these dimensions. Ratings were obtained on all eighty-four current astronauts (excluding those selected in 1990). In addition to peer ratings, supervisor assessments of the same dimensions were obtained for each astronaut. Results: Cluster and factor analysis techniques were employed to isolate subgroups of astronauts. Those astronauts with both high achievement needs and interpersonal skills were most often rated among the top five by their peers and least often rated among the lowest five. A number of scales discriminated between astronauts rated high and low on one or more performance dimensions. Conclusions: The results parallel findings from the personality assessment of individuals in other demanding professions, including aircraft pilots and research scientists, suggesting that personality factors are significant determinants to performance in the space environment
