423. Can an ethical work climate influence payment discipline?Tanja Šalamon, Maja Meško, 2016, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Purpose: All European companies are faced with the lack of payment discipline, which often affects even their survival. One of the key reasons for the lack of payment discipline is poor business ethics, which is primarily introduced with the subject of ethical climate in the literature. For this reason, we wanted to determine whether a company%s ethical climate influences its payment discipline. Design/methodology/approach: In the research, we used Arnaud%s measurement instrument (2010) that helped us to identify six dimensions of ethical climate. The data about a company%s ethical climate were later compared with the data about its payment discipline, calculated using the Dun & Bradstreet rating agency methodology. We included in the sample 273 Slovenian companies, which represented 9.1% of all companies invited to take part in the survey (2978 Slovenian enterprises with 10 or more employees). Findings: We established that (among the six dimensions of the ethical climate) the dimension %moral sensitivity % the lack of norms of empathetic concern% had statistically significant influence on the average delay of payment, and the more significant for the company the lack of norms of empathetic concern was, the longer the delay of the payment to suppliers would be. Our conclusion is that the appropriate forms of the incorporation of training and education on ethical subjects into business studies may increase the payment discipline of companies. Originality/value: The present study represents an important contribution to understanding the causes of payment defaults. The study also includes non-financial antecedents of payment discipline, which represents a new, important contribution of the research.

428. Effect of ionizing radiation on human skeletal muscle precursor cellsMihaela Jurdana, Maja Čemažar, Katarina Pegan, Tomaž Marš, 2013, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: Background. Long term effects of different doses of ionizing radiation on human skeletal muscle myoblast proliferation, cytokine signalling and stress response capacity were studied in primary cell cultures.Materials and methods. Human skeletal muscle myoblasts obtained from muscle biopsies were cultured and irradiated with a Darpac 2000 X-ray unit at doses of 4, 6 and 8 Gy. Acute effects of radiation were studied by interleukin - 6 (IL-6) release and stress response detected by the heat shock protein (HSP) level, while long term effects were followed by proliferation capacity and cell death.Results. Compared with non-irradiated control and cells treated with inhibitor of cell proliferation Ara C, myoblast proliferation decreased 72 h post-irradiation, this effect was more pronounced with increasing doses. Post-irradiation myoblast survival determined by measurement of released LDH enzyme activity revealed increased activity after exposure to irradiation. The acute response of myoblasts to lower doses of irradiation (4 and 6 Gy) was decreased secretion of constitutive IL-6. Higher doses of irradiation triggered a stress response in myoblasts, determined by increased levels of stress markers (HSPs 27 and 70).Conclusions. Our results show that myoblasts are sensitive to irradiation in terms of their proliferation capacity and capacity to secret IL-6. Since myoblast proliferation and differentiation are a key stage in muscle regeneration, this effect of irradiation needs to be taken in account, particularly in certain clinical conditions.

429. Športna dejavnost, učni uspeh in samopodoba štirinajstletnih učencev in učenkMaja Meško, Mateja Videmšek, Tasja Videmšek, Jože Štihec, Damir Karpljuk, Jera Gregorc, 2013, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Namen raziskave je bil ugotoviti, ali obstajajo razlike v učni uspešnosti in samopodobi učencev 9. razredov OŠ glede na to, kako pogosto se ti ukvarjajo s športom. Zanimalo nas je, ali imajo učenci, ki se več ukvarjajo s športom, boljšo samopodobo in boljši učni uspeh ter ali imajo učenci z boljšim učnim uspehom boljšo samopodobo. V ta namen smo anketirali 168 učencev 9. razredov osnovnih šol. Podatke smo obdelali s statističnim programom SPSS; za ugotavljanje razlik med skupinami smo uporabili analizo variance. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da imajo športno bolj dejavni učenci boljši učni uspeh ter nekoliko boljšo samopodobo. Učenci, ki se več ukvarjajo s športom, v bistveno večji meri menijo, da jih imajo sošolci radi, da se v svoji koži dobro počutijo, da so všeč nasprotnemu spolu in da lahko v poklicu veliko dosežejo. Prav tako smo ugotovili, da imajo učenci z boljšim učnim uspehom nekoliko boljšo samopodobo; menijo, da jih imajo sošolci radi, da so pametni in da v poklicu lahko veliko dosežejo. Glede na dobljene rezultate predvidevamo, da ukvarjanje z ustreznimi športnimi dejavnostmi pripomore k boljšemu učnemu uspehu ter razvoju pozitivne samopodobe pri mladostnikih. Prav zato je potrebno otroke in mladostnike nenehno spodbujati in jim omogočati, da so redno športno dejavni, saj s tem krepijo samopodobo in samospoštovanje ter pozitivno vplivajo tudi na svoj učni uspeh.
