Editorial
No full textDear Readers, we are pleased to announce this second edition of 2018. We started the year with a novelty. Since the end of January BBR has been requiring the ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) from the author responsible for the submission. We implemented it immediately after SciELO’s request, because we believe in this initiative of properly identifying the authors, bringing more reliability to the process of recognizing scientific work. We will also require ORCID from co-authors as soon as ScholarOne makes the functionality available. If you do not have your ORCID yet, please register at https://orcid.org/register.
This edition begins with the study by Demo, Rozzett, Fogaça and Souza, who develop and validate a scale of relationship with airline customers. We hope this study will be very useful for research in areas such as strategy and marketing. Forthwith, Severgnini, Galdaméz and Moraes conduct a multiple case study based on the Stakeholder Theory, identifying the perspectives of the stakeholders present in the performance evaluation of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, which can help in the design and implementation of strategies that deliver more value. Miake, Carvalho, Pinto and Graeml develop a theoretical model of Customer Knowledge Management that is useful in evaluating the effectiveness of CRM initiatives, with tangible practical effects such as increase in re-enrollment rates and high return on investment.
Now going into the field of Finance, we have Bernardo, Albanez and Securato studying how macroeconomic and institutional factors may influence the capital structure of Latin American companies. This study sheds light on a theme with many open questions, innovating by bringing under-discussed variables within capital structure theories. Touching finance but focusing on consumer behavior, Ramos, Ferreira, Freitas and Rodrigues study the effect of mobile banking''s confidence in its intention of use, with interesting practical results for the banking sector. Finally, within business education, Lacruz and Américo analyze the influence of debriefing on learning in business games, contributing to more effective teaching strategies.
Good reading to everyone!

Esperamos que este estudo seja de grande utilidade para pesquisas em áreas como estratégia e marketing. Em seguida, Severgnini, Galdaméz e Moraes conduzem um estudo multicaso com base na Teoria dos Stakeholders, identificando as perspectivas dos stakeholders presentes na avaliação de desempenho de micro, pequenas e médias empresas, que pode ajudar no desenho e implementação de estratégias que entreguem mais valor. Miake, Carvalho, Pinto e Graeml desenvolvem um modelo teórico da Gestão de Conhecimento do Cliente que se mostra útil na avaliação da efetividade de iniciativas de CRM, com efeitos práticos tangíveis como aumento de taxa de rematrícula e alto retorno do investimento.
Indo para o campo de Finanças, temos Bernardo, Albanez e Securato estudando como fatores macroeconômicos e institucionais podem ter influência na estrutura de capital de empresas latino-americanas. É um estudo que joga luz sobre um tema que ainda tem muitas questões em aberto, inovando ao trazer variáveis pouco discutidas dentro das teorias de estrutura de capital. Tangenciando finanças, mas focando comportamento do consumidor, Ramos, Ferreira, Freitas e Rodrigues estudam o efeito da confiança do mobile banking na sua intenção de uso, com resultados práticos interessantes para o setor bancário. Por fim, dentro de ensino de negócios, Lacruz e Américo analisam a influência do debriefing no aprendizado em jogos de empresas, trazendo uma contribuição para estratégias mais efetivas de ensino.
Boa leitura a todos!

On the recipient passive in the Kashubian Language: Annex to Milka Ivić's syntactic inventory for Slavonic dialectology
No full textThis paper deals with grammaticalization of the recipient passive such as òn to dostôł (òd ni) przëdzeloné and its place in the verbal system of the Kashubian language. Taking as a starting point Milka Ivić's typological studies of Slavonic syntax, the author of this paper describes and analyses the Kashubian recipient passive and shows its grammatical and semantic features from a comparative viewpoint
Investigation of reactions of Aryl Triazene/Diazene and their application for synthesis of Arylboronic esters and Diazaheterocycles
No full text1-Aryltriazene and 1,2-diaryldiazene are important organic compounds not only for their biological or physical activities, but also for their synthetic applications. They are widely used as building block in heterocycle synthesis and coupling reactions for containing the unique N=N double bond. Thus the author started a research on these two kind of interesting compounds. In this Ph.D thesis, an investigation of the reaction of 1-aryltriazenes and 1,2-diaryldiazenes and their applications in organic synthesis is described. 1-Aryltriazenes are traditionally used as an equiverlant of aryldiazonium salt in the presence of a Brønsted or Lewis acid and could be applied to various nucleophilic substitution reactions, such as halogenation, hydroxylation and hydrogenation. However, there are no known reports about the carbon−metal bond formation in this kind of transformation, for example, creating a carbon−boron bond. At first the author focused on the reactivity of 1- aryltriazenes toward boron reagents. The author found 1-aryltriazene could be converted into the corresponding arylboronic ester via the deaminoborylation with B2pin2 mediated by BF3•OEt2.DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (SPMS
Intermittent muscle activity in the feedback loop of postural control system during natural quiet standing
No full textThe origin of continual body oscillation during quiet standing is a neural-muscular-skeletal closed feedback loop system that includes insufficient joint stiffness and a time delay. Thus, muscle activity and joint oscillations are nonlinear during quiet standing, making it difficult to demonstrate the muscular-skeletal relationship experimentally. Here we experimentally revealed this relationship using intermittent control theory, in which non-actuation works to stabilize the skeletal system towards equilibrium. We found that leg muscles were activated/inactivated when the state point was located in the opposite/same direction as the direction of anatomical action, which was associated with joint torque actuating the body towards equilibrium. The derivative values of stability index defined in the phase space approximately 200 ms before muscle inactivation were also larger than those before activation for some muscles. These results indicate that bipedal standing might be achieved by monitoring the rate of change of stability/instability components and generating joint torque to stabilize the body. In conclusion, muscles are likely to activate in an event-driven manner during quiet standing and a possible metric for on/off switching is SI dot, and our methodology of EMG processing could allows us to extract such event-driven intermittent muscle activities
CAUSALITY IN THE FEEDBACK LOOP DURiNG BALANCING TASKS: INTERMITTENT CONTROL OF QUIET STANDING
No full textThe aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the timing of intermittent muscle activity and joint fluctuation and between intermittent muscle activity and joint torque output. Eight healthy male participants stood quietly on the force platform for 120 sec, while we measured angular displacements and joint toque of the ankle, knee, and hip in the sagittal plane. Surface electromyography from six leg muscles of each leg was also recorded to determine phasic muscle activation and deactivation for each muscle by using two low-pass filters. We found that muscle activation and deactivation periods were in accordance with joint position and velocity and were associated with torque fluctuations in the anatomical action direction. These results succeeded in experimentally visualizing the causality of the feedback loop of the postural control mechanism
