REPRESENTING INCLUSION OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES: ANALYSING DISCOURSES IN A MIXED-METHODS STUDY
Get PDFThis study discusses discursive representations of the inclusion of people with disabilities. Analysing discourses was conducted in the third phase of the author’s mixed-methods study. The study participants lived in a municipality in Northern Finland and were receiving personal assistance services for persons with disabilities. In the analysis results, the participants did not discuss inclusion in their everyday life using formal inclusion-related concepts. Neither did social workers when writing about the participants in their service plans. The findings illustrate how the everyday discourses usually present the inclusion of people with disabilities through and after first representing their exclusion. Representing inclusion of people with disabilities is vague, however dynamic, as representing could eventually lead to the inclusion in the use of language. KEYWORDS: disability, discourse, inclusion, mixed methods, participation, people with disabilities

ŠALIES FINANSINIO STABILUMO MATAVIMO METODAI
Get PDFŠalies finansinio stabilumo analizės ir vertinimo reikšmė ypač išaugo paskutinės pasaulinės finansų krizės kontekste. Šalies finansinis stabilumas – ganėtinai naujas ir įvairialypis tyrimo objektas, todėl svarbi jo tyrimų sritis yra finansinio stabilumo matavimo metodai. Šiame straipsnyje siekiama identifikuoti svarbiausius ir plačiausiai pripažįstamus finansinio stabilumo matavimo metodus. Iš pradžių pristatoma finansinio stabilumo samprata. Tada apžvelgiami svarbiausių organizacijų finansinio stabilumo tyrimų srityje išvystyti finansinio stabilumo matavimo metodai. Pirma aptariami Tarptautinio valiutos fondo finansinio patikimumo rodikliai, tada pereinama prie Europos centrinio banko makroprudencinių rodiklių, abu rinkiniai tarpusavyje palyginami. Siekiant išsamios finansinio stabilumo analizės rekomenduojama derinti abu rodiklių rinkinius. Paskutinėje dalyje aptariami bandymai sukonstruoti agreguotą finansinio stabilumo indeksą. Tačiau galima teigti, kad dėl finansinio stabilumo kompleksiškumo sudėtinga suformuluoti vieną indeksą, todėl apžvelgti bandymai yra lokalūs ir neturi tarptautinio pripažinimo. PAGRINDINIAI ŽODŽIAI: finansinis stabilumas, bankininkystės sektorius, matavimo metodai
