Эффективность с «человеческим лицом»: эволюция понимания «эффективности» в теории организаций
Мониторинг общественного мнения: Экономические и социальные перемены. 2016. № 1. С. 231–239.
Gudova E. A.
The notion of effectiveness is polyvalent; it is widely used in economy, management and organizational theory and less in sociology. At the same time, effectiveness may be related to productivity, rationality, outcome, costs and benefits and other concepts. Approaches towards effectiveness analysis hinge upon orientation towards goal pursuit and survival, development of social ideas and managerial practices, as well as dominant approaches towards organizational analysis (the author considers the effectiveness as rational, natural and open system as defined by R. Scott), environmental influences and an ability to adopt certain institutional myths. The author tries to trace the evolution of the notion of effectiveness in organizational sociology— from the work processes in the scientific management of F. Taylor to the modern definitions of the concept of effectiveness.

Elaborating on Welzel et al.'s "Cool Water Theory," our study zooms into the more limited (albeit still varied) framework conditions of Russia's huge territory. Within Russia's confines, we examine how the combination of moderately cool seasons with steady rain (i.e., Cool Water) affects sub-national areas' contemporary societal progress in two modernization indicators: material prosperity in ...

This article is devoted to the phenomenon of intrinsic motivation, to understand which two models are proposed. We study how positive/negative intrinsic motivation to work (experienced utility) affects worker's individual labour supply (model I) and the amount of effort they exert (model II).

We argue that a classification-based approach to measuring cultural differences across countries or subnational regions is a promising complement, and sometimes an alternative, to the widely used dimensional method in cross-cultural research. The latter summarises cultural variation using continuous dimensions, for example, Hofstede’s famous individualism-collectivism dimension. However, this approach relies on strong parametric assumptions, which are ...

Non-probability web surveys offer several advantages over face-to-face (F2F) interviews—they are cheaper, faster, more accessible, and reduce interviewer effects and desirability bias. As such, they are increasingly popular in both academic and commercial research. However, they often yield demographically biased samples, raising concerns about the accuracy of the resulting public opinion estimates. Most studies on ...

A set of 𝑘𝑛 indivisible items is to be allocated to 𝑛 agents; each agent has to get exactly 𝑘 items, and agents have additive utilities over bundles. Can one find an efficient and approximately fair allocation? In this setting, we introduce new notions of approximate fairness, based on exchange of two single objects, and ...

Research of the impact of kin alloparenting on reproduction mainly focuses on mother’s parents and parents-in-law. The impact on fertility of extended families and the alloparental help with childcare they can provide has received much less attention. Moreover, there is an important lacuna in the existing studies of this problem, as it is mostly approached ...

Для понимания какого-либо качества, как правило, выбирается, некоторая подходящая для его оценки шкала (скажем, от 1 до 5), и, согласно этой шкале, качеству присваиваются одна или несколько оценок. Эти оценки затем преобразуются в одну, “усредненную”, оценку; например, выбирается среднее арифметическое. Так, несданная сессия с тремя баллами 5, 2 и 5 “характеризуется’’ средней оценкой хорошо: (5+2+5)/3 = ...

It is formally proven that if inefficiency (u) is modelled through its variance, considered as a function of exogenous variables z, then the marginal effects of z on technical inefficiency (TI) and technical efficiency (TE) have opposite signs in the typical setup with a normally distributed random error and an exponentially or half-normally distributed u. ...

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs), as a promising photovoltaic technology, have achieved remarkable progress in efficiency. However, perovskite with soft-lattice nature inherently suffers from severe iodine losses under photothermal operation, leading to the irreversible degradation in their photovoltaic performance, thereby remaining a great challenge to achieving durable PSCs. Here, electrostatic iodine regulation is reported by rational ...
