Enormous Number

Today the number of office workers has reached to an enormous number due to the fast-growing technology. Most of these office workers spend long hours in enclosed spaces with little/no daylight penetration. The lack of daylight causes physiological and psychological problems with the workers. At this point lighting systems become prominent as the source and the solution of the problem. Photometric flicker event which arises in the lighting systems can sometimes become visible and brings a lot of issues with it. In this paper, an experimental work has been done to investigate the effect of flicker. For this purpose, the flicker values of 3 different experiment rooms for different lighting conditions and scenarios have been measured and a questionnaire study has been carried out in the experiment rooms with 30 participants. In conclusion, the effect of the flicker event on the volunteers have been classified and some methods have been proposed not to experience flicker effects.

Empirical Tests

Activity-based work environments (WEs) aim to support office workers doing both concentrated and communicative work, but empirical tests are rare. We expected the availability of different WEs to be beneficial for job attitudes and vitality, and that the benefits would be stronger when available WEs were perceived to fit to tasks, and when workers used WEs appropriately. As predictors of appropriate use of WEs, we postulated need for routine seeking and trust in management. Hypotheses were tested in a questionnaire study with 560 office workers from different organizations. The availability of WEs that support undisturbed working was positively related to job attitudes and vitality. For WEs that support communicative work, job attitudes and vitality were additionally explained by the relative fit to the task and appropriate use of WEs. Finally, appropriate use of WEs correlated positively with trust in management and negatively with workers’ need for routine seeking.

Social representations of human rights violations were investigated in a questionnaire study conducted in five countries (Costa Rica, France, Italy, Romania, and Switzerland) (N = 1239 young people). We were able to show that respondents organize their understanding of human rights violations in similar ways across nations. At the same time, systematic variations characterized opinions about human rights violations, and the structure of these variations was similar across national contexts. Differences in definitions of human rights violations were identified by a cluster analysis. A broader definition was related to critical attitudes toward governmental and institutional abuses of power, whereas a more restricted definition was rooted in a fatalistic conception of social reality, approval of social regulations, and greater tolerance for institutional infringements of privacy. An atypical definition was anchored either in a strong rejection of social regulations or in a strong condemnation of immoral individual actions linked with a high tolerance for governmental interference. These findings support the idea that contrasting definitions of human rights coexist and that these definitions are underpinned by a set of beliefs regarding the relationships between individuals and institutions.
