The number of non-profit organizations has grown considerably over thelast decades, however management control techniques are not being introducedwith the same frequency as in lucrative organizations. The increasedcompetition in this sector has created a growing interest in managementcontrol techniques but with little empirical research in the area. Withthe aim to throw some light over the uses of management control inprofessional associations we have focused in the associations foreconomists in Spain as a particular case of a non-lucrative body.Specifically, the paper comprises three surveys addressed to the followingsectors:1) To the 30 Spanish associations of economists.2) To associations related to the business and/or economics area operatingin the United Kingdom.3) To members of the association of economists in Catalonia (Col.legid'Economistes de Catalunya).Results indicate that management accounting tools are used exceptionally,many times only the minimum legal requirements. The critical situation ofthe associations of economists in Spain requires the implementation ofinformation systems, specially taking into account the differentspecialities of economists and offering to its members, services and productsthat are not available through profit organizations.

Informal care is today the form of support most commonly used by those who need other peoplein order to carry out certain activities that are considered basic (eating, dressing, taking a shower,etc.), in Spain and in most other countries in the region. The possible labour opportunity costsincurred by these informal carers, the vast majority of whom are middle-aged women, have not asyet been properly quantified in Spain. It is, however, crucially important to know these quantities ata time when public authorities appear to be determined to extend the coverage offered up to nowas regards long-term care.In this context, we use the Spanish subsample of the European Community Household Panel (1994-2001) to estimate a dynamic ordered probit and so attempt to examine the effects of various typesof informal care on labour behaviour. The results obtained indicate the existence of labouropportunity costs for those women who live with the dependent person they care for, but not forthose who care for someone outside the household. Furthermore, whereas caregiving for morethan a year has negative effects on labour force participation, the same cannot be said of those who start caregiving and stop caregiving .

Structural equation models (SEM) are commonly used to analyze the relationship between variables some of which may be latent, such as individual ``attitude'' to and ``behavior'' concerning specific issues. A number of difficulties arise when we want to compare a large number of groups, each with large sample size, and the manifest variables are distinctly non-normally distributed. Using an specific data set, we evaluate the appropriateness of the following alternative SEM approaches: multiple group versus MIMIC models, continuous versus ordinal variables estimation methods, and normal theory versus non-normal estimation methods. The approaches are applied to the ISSP-1993 Environmental data set, with the purpose of exploring variation in the mean level of variables of ``attitude'' to and ``behavior''concerning environmental issues and their mutual relationship across countries. Issues of both theoretical and practical relevance arise in the course of this application.

This paper reports an analysis of income related health inequalities at the AutonomousCommunity level in Spain using the self assessed health measure in the 2001 edition of theEncuesta Nacional de Salud. We use recently developed methods in order to cardinalise andmodel self assessed health within a regression framework, decompose the sources ofinequality and explain the observed differences across regions. We find that the regions with the highest levels of mean health tend to enjoy the lowest degrees of income related health inequality and vice-versa. The main feature characterizing regions where income related health inequality is low is the absence of a positive gradient between income and health. In turn, the regions where income related health inequality is greater are characterized by a strong and significant positive gradient between health and income. These results suggest that policies aimed at eliminating the gradient between health and income can potentially lead to greate r reductions in socio-economic health inequalities than policies aimed at redistributing income.

The number of hypothesis trying to explain which are the reasons behind the decision to migrate to work into a developed country are diverse and at the same time, difficult to test due to the multiplicity of factors which affect it. This papers attempts to move forward trying to disentangle which are the socio-economic factors that explain the differences in the figures of immigrants in the OECD countries. We show empirical evidence about the determinants of the migratory flows to 17 OECD countries from 65 countries in the 1980-2000 period. Our results reveal the importance to differentiate the inflows composition by at least income in the origin countries. Thus, regarding inflows from non-high-income countries, the results suggest that there is a pull effect from monetary and not real income, and then, the welfare magnets hypothesis should be rejected. This group reacts more to the migratory policy than the inflows coming from high-income countries, although those policies designed to slow down the inflows have not been able, in the aggregate, to reduce them.

Treball de recerca realitzat per alumnes d’ensenyament secundari i guardonat amb un Premi CIRIT per fomentar l'esperit científic del Jovent l’any 2010. L’objectiu del treball ha estat repassar la figura de l’arqueòleg en la cinematografia, apuntar quines són les qüestions més rellevants que separen els seus protagonistes dels vertaders arqueòlegs i demostrar que l'arqueòleg és un científic, que respecta unes pautes ètiques i legals inherents a la professió i que, combinant tecnologia i paciència, busca explicar el present a través de l'estudi dels objectes del passat. La distorsió de què són objecte tant la figura com la tasca de l'arqueòleg en les pel•lícules estudiades deriva fonamentalment de dos factors: la naturalesa mateixa del cinema com a indústria, la inversió feta per la qual la pel•lícula ha de produir beneficis (totes les tasques no atractives s'ometen) i la joventut de l'arqueologia com a ciència hereva, en certa manera -només en certa manera-, de l'aventurisme d'altres èpoques.

O presente trabalho tem como titulo «Financiamento das Pequenas e Médias Empresas face ao Contexto da Crise Financeira Internacional» e ostenta os resultados de uma pesquisa efectuada na cidade da Praia cujo objectivo é analisar os impactos da crise financeira internacional no financiamento das PME’s. Basicamente consiste na análise teórica e genérica de algumas bibliografias, artigos publicados em revistas e na internet conforme consta na nota bibliográfica, que abordam o tema em estudo, pois, daí se extraiu toda a sustentação teórica necessária para o desenvolvimento do estudo pretendido. Tem ainda como pilar a análise dos resultados do inquérito anual às empresas em 2010 que serviram como base para o cálculo da amostra, aplicação de um questionário às PME’s na cidade da Praia com o intuito de recolher informação para a parte prática, e uma entrevista a quatro bancos comerciais a fim de saber se houve medidas de restrição de crédito com a crise financeira internacional. De seguida procedemos ao tratamento da informação recolhida e finalmente a conclusão. Os resultados foram coerentes como se esperava, passamos a conhecer o dinamismo e as dificuldades que enfrentam as PME’s no que tange ao financiamento e o seu agravamento com a crise financeira internacional.

L’objectiu d’aquesta recerca és realitzar un estudi exploratori amb la finalitat d’avaluarl’ansietat percebuda pels estudiants immediatament abans de començar el Pràcticum encentres externs, la contribució de les creences disfuncionals a la percepció d’estrès i ansietat,les expectatives d'autoeficàcia per afrontar els estressors percebuts, les pors i preocupacionsprincipals dels estudiants, així com les seves necessitats de formació específica per afrontar elPràcticum. Els resultats mostren nivells moderats d’ansietat. Les situacions anticipades com amés estressants són l'intent de suïcidi d’un client, l’atac físic, la confidència sobre la comissiód’un delicte, les afirmacions suïcides per part d’un client i la manifestació d‘ira cap a l’estudiant.Les dades també suggereixen que un 44% de la variància de l’ansietat-Estat és pot explicar apartir de l’efecte conjunt de l’ansietat disposicional i les creences disfuncionals, així coml’existència d’una relació negativa entre l’estrès percebut i les expectatives d'autoeficàcia perafrontar-lo. Als estudiants els preocupa no estar a l’alçada de les expectatives, no rebresuficient atenció i orientació dels seus tutors i no saber donar resposta a les demandes delcentre o dels usuaris

El present Treball Fi de Carrera tracta de dur a terme un estudi sobre l'adopció internacional a Espanya. Per analitzar els aspectes d'aquesta figura ens centrarem primerament en la protecció del menor i el seu desenvolupament en el nostre ordenament a través de diverses normatives, tant estatals com convencionals. Únicament amb el desenvolupament de la protecció del menor, podem parlar de l'aparició de l'adopció internacional com a tal a Espanya. Investigarem amb quins materials jurídics comptava Espanya abans i després de la Llei 54/2007 d'adopció internacional, així com els aspectes històrics i demogràfics i les seves respectives causes i conseqüències. Així mateix, observarem el perfil de l'adoptant, així com el de l'adoptat quan arriba al nostre país.

El presente artículo busca proponer un esquema teórico que refleje el comportamientoresidencial de la población inmigrante en España. Dicho diagrama es el resultado de 50entrevistas en profundidad realizadas en las áreas metropolitanas de Madrid y Barcelona.El análisis del contenido de las entrevistas permite diferenciar etapas en el proceso migratoriode integración: el aterrizaje, la llegada, el asentamiento y la estabilización. Estas etapassintetizan el recorrido de un inmigrante extracomunitario en el camino hacia la satisfacción consu situación residencial.Cada etapa presenta diferencias en los criterios de localización residencial; en el tipo devivienda al que el inmigrante aspira; y en la composición del hogar. Asimismo, las etapasevolucionan de acuerdo con el origen del inmigrante, su capital humano, su acceso a redessociales y según si su proyecto migratorio es individual o familiar.
