“…Since that time, the Delphi method has continued to progress and develop. There are now many variation of Delphi, including Classical Delphi, Policy Delphi, Decision Delphi, Ranking-Type Delphi, and others (Paré et al, 2013;Schmidt, 1997).…”

“…The Delphi method is now accepted as a valuable technique in academic research, and its application in academic studies has grown significantly, particularly from the 1980s onwards (Linstone and Tuoff, 2011;Paré et al, 2013;Rowe and Wright, 2011). More recently, there has been considerable progress in terms of providing recommendations and best practice for the procedures of Delphi studies (Hasson and Keeney, 2011;Kalaian and Kasim, 2012;Paré et al, 2013;Schmidt, 1997;von der Gracht, 2012), and these have been useful in this investigation.…”

Sharing activities underpinned by the technologies of the Internet have become dominant in the activities of individuals, business and governments. Recently, such sharing activity has grown from information and media content to wider resources, including money, physical goods and servicescoined collaborative consumption. Sustainability is often cited as a key driver, underpinned by economic, social and environmental benefits. If successful, the sharing of such resources is likely to have a potentially disruptive impact on incumbents in traditional supply chains. However, given the embryonic state of its development, it is perhaps not surprising that collaborative consumption is not well understood in research or practice. With this in mind, this study undertook a four-stage Delphi study with 25 experts in order to identify the key drivers, inhibitors and likely future developments in collaborative consumption over the next 10 years. A key finding was that environmental concern (sustainability) was considered of minor importance. The paper rounds-off with conclusions and implications for practice and further research.

“…La identificación de áreas decisionales, puede también realizarse usando el método Delphi [29], este método permite establecer respuestas a una pregunta planteada por medio de la experticia de personas que han trabajado en torno al problema que se plantee [30]; en este caso serían personas que pertenecen a empresas de transporte de carga y que conocen trasversalmente el funcionamiento de las mismas.…”

La Figura 3 ilustra los pasos para la selección de las áreas decisionales usando el método Delphi.…”

RESUMENEl presente artículo propone un nuevo marco metodológico para el desarrollo de indicadores que permitan medir el desempeño de las actividades clave para cuatro áreas decisionales identificadas en las empresas de transporte de carga terrestre, siendo estas: gerencia, soporte administrativo, operaciones -logística-y tecnología de procesos. La propuesta teórica se basa en un análisis detallado de literatura científica, de este análisis es posible identificar las actividades clave en cada área decisional de las empresas, al igual que los recursos que se ven afectados por variables internas o externas a la operación y que impactan el desempeño empresarial. Como resultado se propone un marco de indicadores para la medición del desempeño de las empresas de transporte de carga que incluye la definición de cada indicador y cómo calcularlo. Finalmente, se concluye que es posible obtener un conjunto de indicadores que se basen en las necesidades identificadas en literatura científica sin obviar las particularidades de las empresas de transporte de carga, lo que asegura la funcionalidad y el éxito de la implementación de estos indicadores.Palabras clave: Indicadores de desempeño, actividades logísticas, transporte terrestre de carga, Logística. ABSTRACT This paper proposes a new methodological framework for the indicators development that allows measuringe the performance of the key activities on the four decisional areas identified on the land freight transport companies: Management, Administrative support, Operations -Logistics and Process technology. The theoretical proposal is based on a detailed analysis of scientific literature, with this analysis is possible to identify the key activities in each decisional

Global versus local: A regional core embryology syllabus for medical students

2021

Core syllabus" in this work refers to knowledge topics that an instructor should necessarily and indispensably address during a discipline. This study describes the process of developing a regional human embryology core syllabus for undergraduate medical courses in Brazil, using a two-round modified Delphi method as a tool for reaching consensus. A list of 679 human embryology topics was generated based on three textbooks. The Delphi panel consisted of specialists (n = 51) with at least 2 years' medical experience in activities related to the contents of embryology or health sciences professionals with at least 5 years' experience in undergraduate medical education of embryology and other cognate disciplines. The panel rated the relevance of each topic on a Likert scale. Following consensus analysis, a list of 69 "core" topics was obtained. Then, in a second Delphi round, the panel was asked to "accept," "accept with modifications," or "reject" the new list. The research team performed a final revision/screening process and generated a core human embryology syllabus comprised of 63 topics. Comparing this regional syllabus with two international core syllabuses also built Delphi panels, 60.3% of the topics overlap with both syllabuses, and 39.7% of its content is unique. This study can be a valuable tool for decision-making in the embryology curriculum for health courses and reinforces the importance of local evaluation of international curricula of human embryology before implementing them, since the incidences of congenital anomalies vary in different regions of the world.
