Planning in Brazil, India and Germany
No full textPlanning is a fundamental cognitive ability that helps in organizing and structuring events unfolding in a person\u27s daily life. Two studies are presented that analyze planning behavior in different cultures: Brazil, India, and Germany. The first is a cross-cultural psychological study in which students develop plans for uncertain problem scenarios. The second study follows a cultural psychological tradition. Workers from different domains are interviewed about their life problems and plans. The strengths and the weaknesses of both approaches become obvious in the description and discussion of these two studies. The cross-cultural study sheds light on cross-cultural similarities and differences in planning in Brazil, India, and Germany. The cultural psychological approach yields data regarding a theoretical model on the specific cultural influences on planning

Decision Making in Individualistic and Collectivistic Cultures
No full textHow do cultural values influence individuals\u27 decision making? One would expect answers to this question either from cognitive psychology or from cross-cultural psychology. Cognitive theories on decision making, however, rarely consider the factor of culture, and research in cross-cultural psychology deals only to a small extent with decision making. Therefore the study of culture and decision making is a relatively new and unexplored field. In this paper normative and descriptive approaches to decision making are discussed and three cross-cultural studies on decision making in individualistic and collectivist cultures using different methodologies are described. The results are integrated into a model that can be helpful to derive specific hypotheses for further studies in this field
Dominik Tatarka - wędrowiec
No full textDominik Tatarka is one of the Slovak travel books’s author; he wrotes reports Clovek na cestach. The travelling was important factor of his life: he find an inspiration for his writting and he formulated his life’s philosophy during his journeys. The travelling is one of the important key for reading all his compositions and for understanding his otlook on life: the author presents himself no as the postmodern nomad, but as the pilgrim, who wanders for aim „to unit splits world” and to find a man

Beato Iohannes Traguriensis and Dominik Andreis
No full textIn the 17th century, the hagiography and iconography of Bishop Iohannes Traguriensis were enriched by various members of Trogir’ s noble families. In this promotion of the cult of the local beato, Dominik Andreis stands out with his efforts: he was the author of an unpublished Litany in Croatian (1632), the instigator of publishing an Italian Vita by Giovanni Francesco Loredan (1648), and the sponsor of a three act drama by Girolamo Brusoni (1656), performed in Trogir with musical intermezzos and published two years later (1658)
Begriff und Wirkung von Konzernverrechnungsklauseln
No full textGroup offsetting clauses are agreements allowing a group-company, which is the debtor of a claim by a third party to meet this claim by offsetting a counterclaim of another group company. In case of bankruptcy of the third party, they can serve as collateral security regarding claims by other group companies. The legal doctrine regarding the validity and enforceability of group offsetting clauses is inconsistent. This essay shows that group offsetting clauses can be structured as contractual substitution-rights (Ersetzungsbefugnis, Alternativermächtigung, facultas a ternativa). This means that the obligation of the thirdparty creditor is limited from the very beginning by the contractual right of the debtor to substitute the payment of the outstanding debt by offsetting (fully or in part) a claim of another group company. The substitution right is a unilateral right of the debtor, which can also be exercised if the creditor of the claim is in bankruptcy and if (as a consequence of this) the counterclaim of the other group company is of no (economic) value
Oncogenic NRAS Accelerates Rhabdomyosarcoma Formation When Occurring within a Specific Time Frame during Tumor Development in Mice
No full textIn the Ptch+/- mouse model for embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS), we recently showed that oncogenic (onc) H-, K- or NRAS mutations do not influence tumor growth when induced at the advanced, full-blown tumor stage. However, when induced at the invisible ERMS precursor stage at 4 weeks of age, tumor development was enforced upon oncHRAS and oncKRAS but not by oncNRAS, which instead initiated tumor differentiation. These data indicate that oncRAS-associated processes differ from each other in dependency on the isoform and their occurrence during tumor development. Here, we investigated the outcome of oncNRAS induction at an earlier ERMS precursor stage at 2 weeks of age. In this setting, oncNRAS accelerates tumor growth because it significantly shortens the ERMS-free survival and increases the ERMS incidence. However, it does not seem to alter the differentiation of the tumors. It is also not involved in tumor initiation. Together, these data show that oncNRAS mutations can accelerate tumor growth when targeting immature ERMS precursors within a specific time window, in which the precursors are permissive to the mutation and show that oncNRAS-associated processes differ from each other in dependency on their occurrence during tumor development
