Advances in Aviation Psychology Volume 1

Advances in Aviation Psychology Volume 1

Aviation remains one of the most active and challenging domains for human factors and applied psychology. Since 1981 the biennial International Symposium on Aviation Psychology (ISAP) has been convened for the purposes of (a) presenting the latest research on human performance problems and opportunities within aviation systems (b) envisioning design solutions that best utilize human capabilities for creating safe and efficient aviation systems and (c) bringing together scientists research sponsors and operators in an effort to bridge the gap between research and application. Though rooted in the presentations of the 17th ISAP held in 2013 in Dayton Ohio Advances in Aviation Psychology is not simply a collection of selected proceeding papers. Based upon the potential impact on emerging trends current debates or enduring issues present in their work select authors were invited to expand on their work following the benefit of interactions at the symposium. The invited authors include the featured keynote and plenary speakers who are all leading scientists and prominent researchers that were selected to participate at the symposium. These contributions are supplemented by additional contributors whose work best reflects significant developments in aviation psychology. Consequently the volume includes visions for the next generation of air management and air traffic control the integration of unmanned (i. e. remotely piloted vehicles) into operational air spaces and the use of advanced information technologies (e. g. synthetic task environments) for research and training. This book is the first in a series of volumes to be published in conjunction with each subsequent ISAP. The aim of each volume is not only to report the latest findings in aviation psychology but also to suggest new directions for advancing the field. | Advances in Aviation Psychology Volume 1

Leadership in the Construction Industry Developing Authentic Leaders in a Dynamic World

Leadership in the Construction Industry Developing Authentic Leaders in a Dynamic World

This book presents a new framework for leadership in the construction industry which draws from the authentic leadership construct. The framework has three major themes: self-leadership self-transcendent leadership and sustainable leadership. Despite its significance leadership has not been given due importance in the construction industry as focus is placed on managerial functionalism. At the project level even with the technological advances in the industry in recent years construction is realized in the form of people undertaking distinct interdependent activities which require effective leadership. The industry faces many challenges including: demanding client requirements and project parameters; more stringent regulations codes and systems; intense competition in the industry; and threats from disruptive enterprise. In such a complex environment technology-driven and tool-based project and corporate management is insufficient. It must be complemented by a strategic genuine stakeholder-focused and ethical leadership. Leadership in the Construction Industry is based on a study on authentic leadership and its development in Singapore. Leadership theories and concepts are reviewed; the importance of leadership in the construction industry is discussed; and the grounded theory approach which was applied in the study is explained. Many eminent construction professionals in Singapore were interviewed in the field study. Emerging from the experiences of the leaders documented in this book are three major themes: (1) self-leadership: how leaders engage in various self-related processes such as self-awareness self-regulation and role modeling. (2) self-transcendent leadership: how leaders go beyond leading themselves to leading others through servant leadership shared leadership spiritual leadership and socially-responsible leadership; and finally (3) sustainable leadership or the strategies leaders employ to make the impact of their leadership lasting. A synthesis of these themes and their implications for leadership development is presented before the book concludes with some recommendations for current and aspiring leaders about how they can engage with them. This book is essential reading for all construction practitioners from all backgrounds; and researchers on leadership and management in construction. | Leadership in the Construction Industry Developing Authentic Leaders in a Dynamic World

Second Rank Cities in Europe Structural Dynamics and Growth Potential

Second Rank Cities in Europe Structural Dynamics and Growth Potential

Second-rank cities are back on the academic scene capturing the interest of scholars with their unexpected recent performance with respect to first-rank cities. Looking at the data on average urban GDP growth in 139 European cities since 1996 the relatively strong position of large cities (over 1. 5 million inhabitants) on national growth coincides with the periods of fastest expansion while at times of slowdown second-rank cities prevail. Especially in the recent period of economic downturn second-rank cities have recorded annual GDP growth rates much less negative than those of capital cities; and in some European countries like Austria and Germany all cities have outperformed their capitals. In explaining this phenomenon linking urban dynamics to agglomeration theories seems the most interesting approach. However merely to link agglomeration economies to urban size in order to interpret urban performance is neither convincing nor sufficient and it calls for additional investigation into how agglomeration economies work. This volume claims that interpretation of the current dynamics in European urban systems – especially in the western part of Europe – would benefit from exploitation of the traditional concept of agglomeration economies. However necessary for this purpose are more in-depth considerations on the nature scope intensity and causes of agglomeration economies which do not relate their existence solely to urban size. And this is where the main challenge for scholars lies in the interpretation of the missing link between agglomeration economies and urban dynamics. This book was originally published as a special issue of European Planning Studies. | Second Rank Cities in Europe Structural Dynamics and Growth Potential

Solitary Waves in Plasmas and in the Atmosphere

Solitary Waves in Plasmas and in the Atmosphere

First Published in 1992. This book arose as a result of the authors work on the review ‘Solitary Vortices in Plasmas’ written for the Soviet Journal of Plasma Physics. With the development of nonlinear wave theory some novel concepts came into use such as solitary waves solitary vortices and solitons. There is still some inconsistency in the use of these terms. The study of solitary waves (solitons) should ultimately lead to a better understanding of the internal structure of elementary particles. That is why solitons are attracting great attention from physicists and mathematicians. The material presented in this book shows that solitons are also of interest in plasma physics and geophysics where these concepts have many important applications. | Solitary Waves in Plasmas and in the Atmosphere

Language and Learning in a Post-Colonial Context A Critical Ethnographic Study in Schools in Haiti

This book explores the social political and historical forces that mediate language ideology and practices in post-colonial education and how such ideology and practices influence students’ academic achievement. Jean-Pierre provides empirical evidence that a relationship exists between language practices and school underperformance. He takes Haiti as the focus of study finding that students and teachers experience difficulty constructing knowledge in a setting in which the language they speak at home (Creole) differs from the language of instruction (French). The research is based on ethnographic data collected in classrooms in both private and public school settings in addition to different sectors of the society (e. g. state and private institutions). | Language and Learning in a Post-Colonial Context A Critical Ethnographic Study in Schools in Haiti
