{"title":"THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE MANAGEMENT: IMPLICATIONS IN THE INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT","authors":"Suada A. Džogović, Suada Ajdarpašić, Leonora Shoshi","doi":"10.21554/hrr.042206","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21554/hrr.042206","url":null,"abstract":"Starting from the concept where language in human communication is the primary means and key communication mechanism in achieving what is real, it is obvious that today it is a kind of phenomenon in all forms of business. This research aims to identify the role of language strategy in international business relations in order to better understand the importance of knowing the most pronounced and influential languages in trade in goods and services in all business segments. Despite recognizing the importance of English language skills and their role in international business relations, there is still room for further research on this issue. Of course, there are studies on the relationship between language and international business, but little has been elaborated on the impact of language on international business relations. In order to assess the current situation, initial dedicated sampling was conducted with the aim of collecting and generating data. The goal, however, is to clarify and confirm explanatory analyzes that reveal the process inherent in the material area of research. Qualitative and quantitative data of analogous research in the environment and beyond were used for generating, i.e. collecting and analyzing data. For simplicity and clarity of results, the theoretical sample collected from different sources was processed by IBM SPSS Statistics. All the above indicators take as a starting point the language and competencies in this area, and therefore a clear possibility has been created for the data to be presented quantitatively on a predominantly qualitative basis. Our research shows that, since language barriers have a profound impact on international business, successfully adapting to the new language(s) yields positive results. For these reasons, we advocate more multidisciplinary studies that require in-depth research at different levels in the field, with a proposal to pay more attention to field theorizing and means of analysis.","PeriodicalId":431886,"journal":{"name":"Journal Human Research in Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123581079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The following criteria were applied: word familiarity, phonetic balance, and homogeneity of audibility. Clinical validation was conducted on a sample of 30 normal hearing subjects, aged 18 to 30 years. We developed four open-set tests for speech threshold and suprathreshold testing in quiet. The tests contain two word lists with 50 monosyllabic words and two word lists with 36 disyllabic words. Each word was introduced by a carrier phrase. Psychometric function slope from 20% to 80% correct recognition for all words was 5%/ dB. The difference between the presentation levels at which the subjects repeated all the words was ≤ 4 dB. Developed phonetically balanced word lists have relatively steep psychometric function slope and they are homogeneous in terms of the audibility.","PeriodicalId":431886,"journal":{"name":"Journal Human Research in Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117234846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ratio analysis and independent sample t-test is applied in order to check the characteristics of two banking sectors. Currently, studies investigating comparative performance of these two banking sectors in BiH are rare, therefore theoretical contribution will be evident. Practically, it will help bank customers to understand how Islamic banking sector performs relative to the conventional banking sector. Also, bank managers of selected banks will be able to compare performance of their banks relative to the other banks in terms of the ratios used in the study. The limitation of the study is that in Bosnia and Herzegovina there is only one bank that operates according to Islamic banking principles, which will represent Islamic banking sector in this study.","PeriodicalId":431886,"journal":{"name":"Journal Human Research in Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116969584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review covered the timeframe from the publication of the previous and only narrative review conducted by Strassman (1997) to 2020. Several of Strassman’s assertions were confirmed, including the oft-repeated one: d/Dhh students possess inadequate comprehension-monitoring skills. In fact, the students are not aware of effective metacognitive strategies and, in general, do not know “what they do not know.” Although intervention is strongly recommended, a few later studies asserted that such intervention not only should be based on the recommendations of the National Reading Panel, but also should be differentiated to meet the individual needs of d/Dhh students. It was argued that d/Dhh reading comprehension challenges are due to metacognitive or executive function issues; however, this assumption needs to be contextualized within a framework of reading which entails decoding and comprehension processes.","PeriodicalId":431886,"journal":{"name":"Journal Human Research in Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134466524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
