TQuestion a. What kinds of theories are addressed in the article? Answer: The article discusses mainly two types of research theory.one is quantitative (Positivistic) and the other is qualitative (Phenomenological). These theories provide necessary guideline to the researcher regarding how to design their research questions‚ select relevant data‚ interpret the data‚ and propose explanations of causes or influences. The quantitative approach follows systematic empirical investigation of social phenomena

Drawing its origins from complexity science‚ complexity leadership theory was postulated by Marion and Uhl-Bien in 2001 (Lichtenstein‚ Uhl-Bien‚ Marion‚ Seers‚ Orton‚ & Schreiber‚ 2006). This leadership theory examines leadership practices in organizational operations and involves the study organizational leadership systems related to interaction amongst themselves‚ how such interactions maintain adaptations and how such interactions eventually influence operational outcomes.

Bounded rationality In game theory‚ bounded rationality is a concept based on the fact that rationality of individuals is limited by the information they have‚ the cognitive limitations of their minds‚ and the finite amount of time they have to make decisions. This contrasts with the concept of rationality as optimization.[1] Another way to look at bounded rationality is that‚ because decision-makers lack the ability and resources to arrive at the optimal solution‚ they instead apply their rationality

Semantic Interoperability in the d-learning in the era of Cloud Computing: Simplicity or Complexity Introduction During recent years there has been an expansion of information system covering the same domain. These systems need more and more to communicate‚ collaborate and exchange content with each other to achieve common goals. Many domains know this revolution‚ including the learning. Learning systems have a rich and varied content must be accessible‚ sharable‚ and exchangeable while keeping

homogeneity across cultures. The theory of relative face orientation We have discussed that Brown and Levinson’s (1987) face-saving politeness theory has been undermined for its inability to be applied universally. In surveying recent studies in cross-cultural communication‚ Mao (1994) mentions Janney and Arndt (1993)‚ who characterise it as idealistic‚ culturally biased‚ and lacking objective empirical evidence for the evaluation of their politeness universals. Instead of a theory centered on universals

In today’s society work is most likely to be associated with paid work. We always tell people about our paid employment‚ the work where we receive a regular income. So the work we do can play a role in defining our identity and how we see our self. Your employment can also play a major role in terms of; determining a person’s level of income‚ defining a person’s status‚ social class and a person’s Life chances. For example those in upper class enjoy greater life chances than those in working class
