The Adoption and Effect of Artificial Intelligence on Human Resources Management (Emerald Studies in Finance, Insurance, And Risk Management #7, Part B)

by Pallavi Tyagi, Naveen Chilamkurti, Simon Grima, Kiran Sood and Balamurugan Balusamy

Emerald Studies In Finance, Insurance, And Risk Management 7 explores how AI and Automation enhance the basic functions of human resource management. The traditional framework of Human Resource Management (HRM) primarily consists of four functions: Human Resource Planning, Recruitment and Selection, Training and Development and Performance Management Systems which help businesses in hiring, motivating and retaining employees. The introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has changed all of these aspects. This second volume in The Adoption and Effect of Artificial Intelligence on Human Resources Management Series reflects upon: the accuracy of using AI to nominate candidates; the change readiness of employees; impacts and challenges on HRM practices; effects on upskilling; and the effects of the pandemic; concluding with an overall state of industry trends. This book is ideal for HR managers, senior managers, researchers, and students planning a career in this field.

Adopted Women and Biological Fathers: Reimagining stories of origin and trauma (Women and Psychology)

by Elizabeth Hughes

Adopted Women and Biological Fathers offers a critical and deconstructive challenge to the dominant notions of adoptive identity. The author explores adoptive women’s experiences of meeting their biological fathers and reflects on personal narratives to give an authoritative overview of both the field of adoption and the specific history of adoption reunion. This book takes as its focus the narratives of 14 adopted women, as well as the partly fictionalised story of the author and examines their experiences of birth father reunion in an attempt to dissect the ways in which we understand adoptive female subjectivity through a psychosocial lens. Opening a space for thinking about the role of the discursively neglected biological father, this book exposes the enigmatic dimensions of this figure and how telling the relational story of 'reconciliation' might be used to complicate wider categories of subjective completeness, belonging, and truth. This book attempts to subvert the culturally normative unifying system of the mother-child bond, and prompts the reader to think about what the biological father might represent and how his role in relation to adoptive female subjects may be understood. This book will be essential reading for those in critical psychology, gender studies, narrative work, sociology and psychosocial studies, as well as appealing to anyone interested in adoption issues and female subjectivity.

The Adopted Child: Family Life with Double Parenthood (Marriage And Family Studies Ser.)

by Christa Hoffmann-Riem

This exploration of the experiences of adopting parents and children offers unusual insight into adoption's complexity and its profound impact on family life. Based on the author's research in Germany, where she lived and taught, The Adopted Child has a great deal to say about child rearing and identity, as well as offering insights into similarities and differences in family life and adoption in Germany and the United States.Hoffmann-Reim takes the reader through the decision to adopt, the adoption placement procedure, and the transition from "applicant" to "mother and father." She explores differences between emotions experienced in adopting a baby, a toddler, and an older child, and how these emotions can affect relations with the world outside the nuclear family. A central concern is secrecy and disclosure with regard to the adopted child's origins.Based on case studies and extensive interviews, The Adopted Child has fascinated American readers as it did those in Germany. Professionals as well as those interested in adoption and family life in general will find it significant. Sociologists will find it solidly grounded in concepts and traditions from a diversity of related disciplines. And anyone interested in Germans and German society will find the materials revealing, and the author's interpretation insightful and wise.

Adoleszenz und Migration: Adoleszenzverläufe weiblicher und männlicher Bildungsmigranten aus Westafrika

by Marga Günther

Die Arbeit beleuchtet adoleszente Entwicklungsprozesse afrikanischer Bildungsmigranten in Deutschland und geht der Frage nach, wie Adoleszenz- und Migrationsprozesse zusammenwirken. Die Analyse von biographischen Interviews verdeutlicht, wie die adoleszenten Möglichkeitsräume adoleszenter BildungsmigrantInnen beschaffen sind und wie die Auseinandersetzung mit Veränderungen sowohl auf individueller wie sozial-gesellschaftlicher Ebene transformierte Lebensentwürfe hervorbringt. Die adoleszenztheoretische Perspektive ermöglicht den Blick auf die Innenwelt der jugendlichen MigrantInnen jenseits der üblichen Kategorien wie "Kultur", "ethnische Identität" etc. und gibt Aufschlüsse darüber, ob und in welcher Weise die Jugendlichen mit ihren sozialen Praxen oder Identitäten an kulturell oder ethnisch definierte Bilder anknüpfen oder aus welchen anderen Bildern oder Vorstellungen sich ihre Lebensentwürfe generieren.

Adoleszenz Und Arbeit: Das Subjektive Verhältnis Jugendlicher Zur Erwerbsarbeit (Arbeit Und Organisation Ser. #9)

by Andreas Fischer

Wie wollen Jugendliche arbeiten, wie entwickelt sich ihr subjektives Verhältnis zur Erwerbsarbeit und welche Rolle spielen dabei gegenwärtige Sozialisationsbedingungen und gesellschaftliche Dynamiken? Der Topos der Selbstverwirklichung in Diagnosen und Erzählungen zur »Jugend von heute« schreibt sich stetig fort, doch Andreas Fischer zeigt auf Grundlage adoleszenztheoretischer Überlegungen und im Anschluss an arbeits- und jugendsoziologische Debatten, dass dessen Fundament in der Theorie zunehmend brüchig wird. Was das konkret für das subjektive Verhältnis Jugendlicher zur Erwerbsarbeit bedeutet, veranschaulicht er über eine umfangreiche quantitative und qualitative Empirie.

Adoleszenz in einem palästinensischen Flüchtlingscamp: Generationenverhältnisse, Möglichkeitsräume und das Narrativ der Rückkehr (Adoleszenzforschung #3)

by Christoph H. Schwarz

Die palästinensischen Flüchtlingslager bestehen seit nunmehr über 60 Jahren. Wie erleben Jugendliche, die heute in dritter Generation dort aufwachsen, den Übergang ins Erwachsenenalter? Welche Lebensentwürfe entwickeln sie? Wie gehen sie mit den Erwartungen, Wertvorstellungen und tradierten Narrativen der älteren Generation um? Welche Vorstellungen haben sie von den Israelis und deren Narrativen? Ausgehend von Gruppengesprächen und ethnographischen Beobachtungen wird in dieser Arbeit die Struktur des adoleszenten Möglichkeitsraumes in einem Flüchtlingscamp in der Westbank untersucht. Im Fokus steht die Gruppendynamik während der Gespräche und die Forschungsbeziehung, die sich über vier Forschungsaufenthalte hin entwickelte.

Adolescents, Rapid Social Change, and the Law: The Transforming Nature of Protection (Advancing Responsible Adolescent Development)

by Roger J.R. Levesque

This book reviews broad social changes affecting youth development and the inconsistency of the legal system in updating its approach to adolescents’ rights. Legal experts examine current adolescent protections and offer research-based proposals for revising laws that underserve or criminalize youth under the rubric of protection. Focusing on the key areas of technology and media, education, and personal relationships, chapters discuss legal responses to a range of challenges impacting young people, including sexual exploitation, the right to privacy, military family issues, and the school-to-prison pipeline. The book’s nuanced concept of legal protection credits youth with greater competence than currently afforded, in hope that adolescents can take more ownership of their evolving lives in a rapidly changing society.Topics featured in this volume include:How to balance freedom of expression with adolescents’ right to data protection. The sexualization of media and its effects on youth attitudes and behaviors. The rising phenomenon of teenage sexting. Protecting students’ sexual identity in private schools. Youth sex and labor trafficking and possible solutions to alleviate the widespread crime.Adolescents, Rapid Social Change, and the Law is a must-have resource for researchers and professors, clinicians and related professionals as well as graduate students in developmental psychology, family studies, public health, educational policy and politics, and social policy.

Adolescents, Crime, and the Media: A Critical Analysis (Advancing Responsible Adolescent Development)

by Christopher J Ferguson

A campus shooting. A gang assault. A school bus ambush. With each successive event, fingers are pointed at the usual suspects: violent films, bloody video games, explicit web sites. But to what extent can—or should—the media be implicated in youth crime? And are today's sophisticated young people really that susceptible to their influence?Adolescents, Crime, and the Media critically examines perceptions of these phenomena through the lens of the ongoing relationship between generations of adults and youth. A wealth of research findings transcends the standard nature/nurture debate, analyzing media effects on young people's behavior, brain development in adolescence, ways adults can be misled about youth’s participation in criminal acts, and how science can be manipulated by prevailing attitudes toward youth. The author strikes a necessary balance between the viewpoints of media providers and those seeking to restrict media or young people's access to them. And the book brings scientific and intellectual rigor to culturally and politically charged issues as it covers:Violence in the media.Media portrayals of crime and youth.Research on violent television programs, video games, and other media as causes of crime.Effects of pornography on behavior.Public policy, censorship, and First Amendment issues.Adolescents, Crime, and the Media is an essential resource for researchers, graduate students, professionals, and clinicians across such interrelated disciplines as developmental psychology, sociology, educational policy, criminology/criminal justice, child and school psychology, and media law.

Adolescents and War: How Youth Deal with Political Violence

by Brian K Barber

Hundreds of thousands of children are forced or legally recruited combatants in no fewer than 70 warring parties across the world. In addition to these child soldiers, thousands of youth voluntarily participate in politically related conflict. Why, how, and in what capacities are such large numbers of teenagers involved in war and how are they affected? Adolescents and War brings together world experts in an evidence-based volume to thoroughly understand and document the intricacies of youth who have had substantial involvement in political violence. Contributors argue that the assumption that youth are automatically debilitated by the violence they experience is much too simplistic: effective care for youth must include an awareness of their motives and beliefs, the roles they played in the conflict, their relationships with others, and the opportunities available to them after their experiences with war. The book suggests that the meaning youth make of a conflict may protect them from mental harm. For example, Palestinian teens who were actively engaged in the first Intifada have fared better than Bosnian teens who were virtual sitting ducks to the sniper and grenade launches of the hidden forces during the siege of Sarajevo. Covering youth involvement in conflicts in Afghanistan, Angola, Sierra Leone, Mozambique, Northern Ireland, Israel/Palestine, and Bosnia, the volume will be of interest to psychologists, sociologists, and political scientists and should be adopted for courses in social psychology, crisis intervention, and international conflict.

Adolescents and Their Social Media Narratives: A Digital Coming of Age (Routledge Studies in Science, Technology and Society)

by Jill Walsh

Adolescents are forging a new path to self-development, taking advantage of the technology at their fingertips to produce desired results. In Adolescents and Their Social Media Narratives, Walsh specifically explores how social media impacts teenagers' personal development. Indeed, through unique empirical data, Walsh presents an aspect of teen media use that is not often documented in the press—the seemingly deep and meaningful process of evaluating the self visually in an attempt to reconcile their presentation with their internal "self-story." Nevertheless, as Walsh outlines, this is not a process without its challenges. Tracking teenagers’ progress towards self-validation from the offline stages preceding online exhibitions, this enlightening volume will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, scholars, and researchers interested in fields such as Social Media Studies, Sociology of Adolescence, Identity Formation, Developmental Psychology, and Society and Technology.
