The Christmas Market as an Attractive Tourist Product of Cracow

Purpose. The main aim of this article was to show that Cracow’s Christmas Market is an attractive tourism product, type-event. Method. The study was carried out with the diagnostic poll method. The author's questionnaire, which was prepared in cooperation with the Congregation of Merchants and the Institute of Tourism, was used. The simple random sample, which was selected from visitors who came for a Christmas Market, was constituted by 518 Poles and 56 foreigner tourists. Findings. The subjects had clearly indicated that Christmas Market is an attractive tourism product. This is confirmed by the fact that: 96.3% of them recommend the Christmas Market to their friends and 61% of them claim that the Christmas Market is the most attractive trade event in the centre of Cracow. The results also showed some lacks in the area of promotion and organization. However, this did not result in a low rating of the event itself. Research and conclusions limitations. The study was carried out on a simple, random sample. Due to the lack of previous research on this event, it is difficult to reference previous editions. Cyclical repetition of research with the use of the same methodology would allow deeper investigation of the phenomenon in the future. Practical implications. The research is a valuable contribution to the development of the Cracow Christmas Market. Visitors’ feedback gave organizers a chance to focus on elimination of weaker parts and to work on highlighting the most interesting elements and to improve the event in subsequent years. Originality. This is the first publication on the Christmas Market in Cracow as a tourism product. Type of paper. Original work, demonstrating the results of empirical research.

Metacognition, Formative Assessment, and Student Perspective: Learning About Metacognition Through In-Class Comparison of Response Systems.

Educators influence learning context through, among other things, triadic reciprocal causation-a behavioral model used in social cognitive theory. Eliciting responses from learners during instruction may contribute to learning by engaging their metacognition. In this study, metacognition was examined based on learners' experience with 2 different polling methods: student response systems (SRS), commonly known as "clickers," and a low-technology response system (LTRS), where students raise labeled signs, each with a different response. Scale item results are reported. Scales measuring the influence of metacognition from polling methods were administered, following treatment (SRS) and comparison method (LTRS), to first-year physician assistant (PA) students (n = 54). Statistical tests of significance and effect size for each item were compared. Performance outcomes suggest that the SRS enhances learning experiences more than low-technology polling. Self-reported surveys indicate that self-monitoring, note-taking, and understanding during lectures are significantly improved with the use of clickers. Peer and social comparison items did not demonstrate significance collectively, but survey results indicate that candidates compared themselves to their peers significantly more with the LTRS than with the SRS. Findings support the practice of using an electronic SRS to poll PA students and enhance learning.

Uptake of intermittent preventive treatment for malaria during pregnancy with Sulphadoxine-Pyrimethamine (IPTp-SP) among postpartum women in Zomba District, Malawi: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundMalaria in pregnancy causes adverse birth outcomes. Intermittent preventive treatment of malaria during pregnancy with sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (IPTp-SP) is recommended as a chemoprevention therapy. Zomba district IPTp uptake falls far below the national average. The study was conducted to assess determinants of IPTp-SP uptake during pregnancy among postpartum women in Zomba district after adoption of new IPTp-SP policy in 2014.MethodsThis was a cross-sectional survey. Two public health facilities (HFs) were randomly selected from urban and rural areas in Zomba district. Study participants were postpartum women selected by using exit poll method from HFs. A total of 463 postpartum women were interviewed using structured questionnaire. Bivariate and multiple logistic regression was used in data analysis.ResultsOut of all the enrolled participants (n = 463), 92% women had complete information for analysis. Of these, (n = 426) women, 127 (29.8%, 95% CI: 25.6%–34.3%) received three or more doses of SP, 299 (70.2%, 95% CI: 65.7%–74.4%) received two or less doses. Women receiving SP from rural HF were less likely to get at least three doses of SP than urban women, (AOR = 0.31, 95% CI 0.13–0.70); Others less likely were those with three or few antenatal care (ANC) visits versus four or more visits (AOR = 0.29, 95% CI 0.18–0.48); not taking SP under direct observation therapy (DOT) (AOR = 0.18, 95% CI (0.05–0.63).ConclusionsThere is low utilisation of at least three doses of SP in this population and this seems to be associated with the number of ANC visits and use of DOTs. These determinants may therefore be important in shaping interventions aimed at increasing the uptake of IPTp in this district. In addition, the rural urban differential suggests the need for further research to understand the barriers and enablers of uptake in each context in order to improve the health of the community.

Międzynarodowa turystyka edukacyjna a rozwój osobisty i zawodowy młodzieży studenckiej

International educational tourism, realized through the Erasmus Programme, opens up the possibility of travelling abroad to study or to get some practice, promotes educational and professional mobility of students. It belongs with such human activities which are of great importance to the development of personality, self-education, getting to know oneself better in an international, culturally diversified environment. It is an element of self-creative activity of students concerning the professional aspect of their lives. Considering the above-mentioned assumptions, the aim of the study presented in this article was to diagnose the benefits for the personal and professional development of the youth, ranging from acquiring and extending their professional knowledge to honing their personal, professional and language skills as well as their personality traits. In the examination of the role and significance of the international educational tourism in the self-creative activity of students concerning their professional lives, the diagnostic poll method was adopted and carried out with the use of the survey technique, in which the research tool was an own survey questionnaire. From the analysis of the findings it follows that the vast majority of the respondents derived plenty of benefits for their professional development regarding a general better start in their professional career―the possibility of taking up their first job in the country or abroad. The interviewees commented positively on the practical training they were provided with by the universities abroad, the practical knowledge of the lecturers, the fact that they were open-minded and could realize the curriculum without any limitations. Additional important benefits for the scholarship students were the ability of personal and professional development, of shaping their personality and improving the skills which could be appreciated on the job market and useful in their personal life. The participants in the international educational tourism take deep satisfaction from the fact that they could participate in the Erasmus Programme which, in their opinion, has increased their value on the job market and has been an important element of their self-creative activity.

Getting to good enough: Performance of a suite of methods for spatially allocating fishing effort to management areas

Allocating fishing effort to management areas is a critical component of many fisheries monitoring programs, though the effectiveness of the methods utilized by these programs has not been comprehensively evaluated. Using high-frequency (1 poll/60 s) global positioning system (GPS) data to approximate ‘true’ fishing behavior, the performance of several methods are evaluated with respect to their ability to correctly estimate the time spent fishing per fishery management area. Results indicate that straight line interpolation methods, and medium-frequency vessel monitoring system (VMS) polling methods (≥1 poll/30 min) can be used to provide reasonably accurate estimates of fishing effort (fishing time) per management area. Assigning the management area based on the location of the end of the haul, or from low-frequency VMS polling (≤1 poll/60 min) generally performed poorly. The performances of VMS-based methods were markedly improved when instantaneous vessel speed information was available. These results are useful for fishery managers looking to evaluate the sufficiency of current fishery monitoring and data collection programs, as well as highlighting the practical trade-offs between improvements and program operating costs.

Exact Mean Packet Delay for Delayed Report Messages Multipoint Control Protocol in EPON

The infrastructure to develop the next generation optical access network is the Ethernet passive optical network (EPON). Interleaved polling with adaptive cycle time (IPACT) is a common polling method of an EPON. However, the mean waiting time of packets (= the mean packet delay) with IPACT is large depending on the arriving time of the packets. In this paper, a novel media access method for IPACT is proposed in order to minimize the mean packet delay. The mean packet delay with the proposed method is also derived as the exact solution. This solution is based on the non-trivial simplification of the previous work on the analytical solution for general IPACT. We confirm a close match between simulation and our theoretical results and show the effectiveness of our method.

The role of agrotourism in a country development with regard to Wolin community

The aim of work is to determine agrotourism role in a country development in regard to Wolin community and to indicate agrotourism development determinants with connections between them. The number of 20 agrotouristic household owners at the age 30–69 y.o. is studied. The bulk of households (65%) is carried on by women at the age 50–59 y.o. The method of diagnostic poll and the Pearson’s χ2 test to data analysis are used. In opinion of the majority of contractors (75%) the agrotourism development advantageously influences on the country development. The only significant dependence (p = 0.09520*) between the period of the activity management and the evaluation of agrotourism development possibilities in Wolin community is noticed. One can conclude that longer period of the agrotourism activity management causes more positive note of economic and social development of the country. In opinion of agrotourism household owners, Wolin community is characterized by many natural and cultural attractions, as a basis for the agrotourism development and a stimulus for potential tourists. Respondents notice also the activity of local government engagement in the agrotourism development and seek in this phenomenon a chance to a further development.

Selected moral values and their influence on financial decision making within the public sector: A case study of Poland

Objectives: The general aim of this article is to propose a theoretical model for the determinants of the optimal (required) operating of the public sector, including financial decision making in the scope of the creation of law and its application. At the same time, authors assert that universal moral values affect and should affect the legal system (including the creation and application of law governing public finances). Research Design & Methods: Precisely in the context of the values mentioned below, authors have decided to verify to what extent the mentioned model works in practice (an initial practical test). For this purpose two pilot studies have been conducted by use of the diagnostic poll method. Findings: Although in common (i.e. public) conviction decision making by public authorities (including decisions on public spending) should be based on moral values culturally accepted by society (which are often reflected in binding law), the results of the afore-mentioned studies were less than conclusive. Recommendations: The results underlined the need for in-depth interdisciplinary research (both legal and sociological), mainly into the moral aspects of legislating with regard to public finances, both at the state and local levels. Contribution: Research into the issue of the role of morality in financial decision making in Poland has not been undertaken yet. The authors created (and proposed) a theoretical model for the optimal operating of the public sector and decided to test the validity of the assumptions of the basic elements thereof by way of pilot studies.

Health-related behavior patterns of cancer patients determined by socio-demographic variables

Abstract Introduction. Health practices have been a subject of theoretical and empirical discussions among experts from various fields of knowledge. They are analyzed more and more closely, regarding their connection with specific diseases. Because cancer is one of the main causes of death in Poland, it is very important to learn more about pro-health behaviors undertaken by cancer patients. Aim. An attempt was made to establish if pro-health activities and their separate categories regarding cancer patients are preconditioned by socio-demographic variables. Material and methods. The research was conducted on the group of 100 cancer patients. Diagnostic poll method, survey technique was used when conducting this study. Health Behavior Inventory (HBI) by Zygfryd Juczyński was the research tool. STATISTICA 12 and Microsoft Office Excel were used to analyze the gathered data. Statistical significance of p<0.05 was assumed which indicated statistically important differences or correlations. Results. There was no association between sex, marital status, place of residence, education level, financial situation and prohealth activities undertaken by cancer patients. Average HBI score for the whole group amounted to 78.47±15.80 which is average. The highest level of pro-health behavior was observed in Proper Eating Habits subscale and the lowest level of pro-health behavior was observed in Health Practices category. Conclusions. The knowledge gained on the basis of the conducted research will constitute a valuable hint regarding deficits in the observance of the principles of health culture in patients with cancer.

Pervasive Energy Monitoring and Control Through Low-Bandwidth Power Line Communication

The Internet of Things (IoT) is growing rapidly, with increasingly sophisticated networking, sensing, and actuation functions embedded into everyday devices. One important IoT application is managing a building’s energy usage by monitoring and controlling its electrical devices. Many existing IoT-enabled devices operate through low-cost and convenient power line networks, using protocols such as X10 and Insteon for communication. However, as these technologies have traditionally targeted low-bandwidth device control, they are often not readily suited to higher bandwidth uses such as continuous energy monitoring. In this paper, we consider the challenge of leveraging existing low-bandwidth power line communication networks for energy monitoring, and present several techniques that enable reliable and high-resolution monitoring in such networks. As a case study, we consider the popular Insteon protocol and show that intelligent polling and event detection methods can reduce the bandwidth requirements and undetected power events in a real-world Insteon network by 50% or more versus naive methods. Our techniques have been employed in a real IoT-enabled smart home, which has collected much of the data publicly released in the UMass Smart* energy dataset.

Depression among oncological patients

Abstract Introduction. The issue of depression in the context of cancer is a very important and complex problem. Suffering from depression and cancer at the same time concerns from 20% to 80% of the patients. Aim. Assessment of depression occurrence among oncological patients depending on the profile of the disease. Material and methods. The research group consisted of 63 oncological patients. Diagnostic poll method, survey technique was used. Occurrence and intensity level of depression symptoms were measured according to the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) which was accompanied by the authorial questionnaire analyzing socio-demographic situation of the surveyed as well as the cancer profile i.e. type of cancer, ailments accompanying the disease and the frequency of their occurrence, undertaken therapies and their results. Results. The analysis conducted with the help of BDI questionnaire presented the following results: more than half of the surveyed (54%, n=34) suffered from moderate depression and roughly 1/10 (n=7) of the surveyed suffered from severe depression. Only 1/3 (n=22) of the surveyed showed no signs of depression and complained only about low mood. Side effects of the treatment preventing patients from everyday functioning determined the occurrence of depression symptoms. Severity of cancer symptoms, duration of illness, time of diagnosis and number of attempts to fight the disease had no influence on the occurrence of depression symptoms. Conclusions. Cancer influences every part of a patient’s life. Because of this, a holistic approach should be applied when treating such patients and that approach should be based on cooperation of doctors with clinical psychologists.

Australia’s anti-Islam right in their own words. Text as data analysis of social media content

ABSTRACTIn recent years, far-right organisations have formed in response to what they believe to be the threat from the rise of Islam in Australia. Parallel movements have spawned an extensive literature internationally. In this study I investigate this movement in Australia using automated text analysis of all public posts from two of the most popular Australian anti-Islam groups on social media. This approach complements traditional polling methods by offering access to large samples of the spontaneously generated opinions, allowing subjects to speak in their own words. My analysis finds evidence that concerns about terrorism and the perceived political threat from Islam are paramount in these groups’ discussion of Muslims. I conclude by discussing the implications for counter-messaging strategies.

РАЗРАБОТКА СБАЛАНСИРОВАННОГО УПРАВЛЕНЧЕСКОГО РЕШЕНИЯ ПО ФОРМИРОВАНИЮ ИНВЕСТИЦИОННОГО ПОРТФЕЛЯ ДЛЯ ФИЗИЧЕСКОГО ЛИЦА В ИСТОРИЧЕСКОМ И СОВРЕМЕННОМ АСПЕКТЕ

Different areas of investment activities have been created and mastered throughout all history of human civilization development. The survey of students majoring in Economics and Management has been conducted to identify topical areas of investment activities at the present stage of development of Russian economy. The following investment preferences of individuals are revealed: bank deposits; trust management of capital; common shares; rental activities and purchase of precious metals. In the 20th and 21st cc. scholars offered different methods for development of a balanced managerial decision on forming an investment portfolio. These methods are more acceptable for legal entities. However, for individuals they are difficult to use due to many reasons. Therefore, there is a need for a simpler and more available method. It is suggested to use the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) developed by T. Saaty. The balanced managerial decision on forming an investment portfolio for an individual has been developed as a result of the conducted research using the polling method and the analytic hierarchy process. The profitability for each investment decision is calculated.

The patient under the influence of alcohol – Discriminated victim or aggressor?

IntroductionPersons under the influence of alcohol are often admitted as patients to hospital emergency departments (EDs) and other hospital wards. Their behaviour usually differs from the socially accepted norms, and, in consequence, these patients receive lower quality medical care, which is counted as discrimination. In this situation however, it is often difficult to define whether patients under the influence of alcohol are victims of discrimination or aggressors. The aim of this research was the identification of the incidences of unequal treatment of drunken patients by medical staff. MethodThe research was conducted from January to June 2015 on a group of 206 hospital ED medical staff, as well as other selected hospital wards, at two hospitals in Bydgoszcz. The diagnostic poll method was used, with the research tool being the original poll survey questionnaire. Non-parametric difference significance tests of independent groups were used for statistical analyses. The acquired data was processed with Statistica PL and Microsoft Excel programmes. ResultsThe occurrence of unequal treatment by medical staff of patients under the influence of alcohol was observed in the performed studies. There is a correlation between medical staff workplace and the prevalence of discrimination against this group of patients. It most frequently takes place in EDs. In the respondents’ opinion, care and treatment of patients under the influence of alcohol is aggravated by their vulgar behaviour. From viewpoint of the medical staff, the existence of a special care institution for intoxicated persons is justified.

WoT 환경에서 웹과 IoT 플랫폼 사이의 데이터 통신 연구

최근 사람과 사물, 사물과 사람을 연결하는 IoT (internet of things)가 주목받고 있으며, 빠른 속도로 발전하고 있다. IoT가 발전하면서 전문가들은 10년 내에 인터넷에 연결된 디바이스는 약 1000억 대를 돌파할 것으로 예상하고 있다. 하지만, 현재 IoT 업체들 사이에서는 서로 다른 업체의 IoT 플랫폼 간에 데이터를 상호작용 하기 어려운 상태인 사일로 현상(ssilos effects)을 겪고 있다. 이러한 사일로 현상은 IoT가 더욱 큰 시장으로 성장하는 것을 제한할 것이다. 따라서 IoT 서비스를 공급하는 업체에서는 각 IoT 플랫폼 간 데이터를 상호작용 할 수 있는 개방형 IoT 플랫폼을 개발해야 한다. 현재 개방형 IoT 플랫폼을 위해 웹 기술이 급부상하고 있다. 개발자들에게 친숙하고 배우기 쉬운 웹 기술을 이용하면 IoT 디바이스를 발견하고, 수집된 데이터를 다양한 서비스에 활용할 수 있으며, 네트워크에 문제가 발생했을 경우 우회할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 사일로 현상을 극복하고자 하는 WoT 환경에서 사용될 수 있는 데이터 통신 기술에 대해 알아보고 비교분석하였다. 그 결과, IoT의 정보를 단순하게 주고받을 수 있는 폴링 방식에서 빠른 전송 속도를 얻을 수 있었다. Recently, IoT(Internet of Things) to connect the objects and people has attracted attention. And it is rapidly developing. IoT is to develop, experts are predicting that the device is connected to the Internet to break through around 100 billion within 10 years. However, the current IoT companies are having a difficult state to the other each other IoT platform for interaction between data silos effects. These silos effects will limit the IoT grow to a larger market. Thus, the IoT service supplier shall develop an open platform for interaction IoT data between each IoT platform. These web technologies for current open IoT platform has emerged. If developers are using familiar, easy-to-learn Web technologies, developers can take advantage of a variety of services for the collected data, and found the IoT devices can be bypassed if there is a problem on the network. In this paper, we investigate the data communications technology that can be used in WoT environment to overcome these silos effects. As a result, the polling method that can simply send the IoT information the fastest.

The geospatial information industry has the advantage of being able to converge with other industries to create new value. Therefore, efforts are underway to promote the growth of this dwindling national industry by endorsing policies and initiatives to promote its convergence with other industries. In this study, feedback was collected from experts in various fields through three rounds of polls using the Delphi method. The poll results were used to investigate the causes of hindrance to the growth of the geospatial information industry and to build a comprehensive solution to this problem. As a result, 27 strategies were constructed based on the users' requirements related to policy, data and service, including the demands for establishing public polling methods, enhancing data quality and advertisement. Since the coefficient of variance fell between 0.11 and 0.20 in the importance evaluation, an amicable consensus was reached between the experts. Considering that the convergence of industries is achieved through the integration of various types of technology and information, it is important to consider the requirements of users in different industries. In this respect, the results of this study will serve as a useful base for constructing mid-to-long term road maps to promote the development of the geospatial information industry.
