“…As Trnova [33] emphasized in his statement that the materials instructions and the contents are essential since they affect teachers' creativity and their work performance. Furthermore, Sitar et al [34] also asserted that creative thought in teaching and learning needs a considerable amount of information. In this sense, these core aspects are essential and should be concerned by any English teacher and textbook developer.…”

<span lang="EN-US">The aspects of the content of teacher’s book received less concern among the teachers, academicians, and researchers. Therefore, the present study was carried out to investigate the core aspects of teacher’s book content based on teachers' needs. Three experienced-teachers from different junior high schools were involved in the present study. The study used a descriptive qualitative method. A need analysis was carried out to obtain the data through semi-structured interviews. The data was collected and analyzed through coding and categorizing techniques based on the questions category. The study found that there were several core aspects needed by the teachers that should be included in a teacher’s book content, namely appearance design/layout, procedures in teaching, material explanation, teaching aids, teaching and learning assessment, time allocation, example of classroom language, and key answers. These aspects are purely based on the analysis on teachers' needs and expectations. The researchers point out that this investigation is fruitful to carry out since it synchronizes the content of the teacher’s book and the needs of the teachers which provide a set of ready-made procedures or proper steps in teaching. The present study strongly supports any researchers to investigate other essential aspects of teacher-textbook’s content for more resourceful content.</span>

“…It is obvious that the lack of creative employees is a serious issue in the labour market, when instead of creative, resourceful, open to innovations employees with original thinking, who are able to make innovative decisions and achieve publicly significant and qualitatively new results, stereotypically and traditionally thinking individuals are faced, who, according to Rogers (2005) are distinguished by regulated thinking and even standard-based group activity. At the same time, Sitar et al (2016) point out that in the rapidly changing working environment a lot of people want to be creative in their workplace but only some of them are able to disclose their creativity. The need for and significance of promoting the expression of creativity in such a situation is obvious perceiving that the person's creativity development to a large extent depends on the direction of the individual's activities, the created atmosphere and the way the obtained knowledge and skills are implemented.…”

The expression of personality traits and creativity of students in different study programmes may differ. The goal of the research is to investigate and compare differences in the expression of personality traits and perceived creativity and their links in two groups of research participants: 1) where the study programmes do not include study subjects for promotion of creativity expression, and 2) where the study programmes include the study subjects that promote the expression of creativity. The research methods: the NEO Five Factor Inventory (Costa, Mc.Crae, 1992) was used to investigate the students' personality traits. Perceived creativity was analysed applying the Questionnaire for Personality Creativity (Petrulis, 1988). The data collected during the research was processed using the method of statistical analysis. The analysis of comparing the values of the components of the personality traits and perceived creativity was conducted applying the Student-t test. Investigation of the correlations of perceived creativity with the indicators of the personality traits was carried out using the Pearson's correlation coefficient. The research results showed that significantly higher average values in the scales of originality, childishness and pursuit of creativity were observed among students from the study programmes, which included the study subjects that enhance the expression of creativity, compared with those of students, who chose the study programmes without the study subjects that promote the expression of creativity. However, criticality was stronger expressed among the latter students. Evaluation of the expression of personality traits disclosed significantly higher average values of openness to experience and neuroticism in the group of students from the study programmes with the study subjects that promote creativity compared to the students from the study programmes without such study subjects. However, the level of extraversion expression was characteristic of the students in the latter group. The conducted correlation analysis of the interaction of perceived creativity and the Big Five personality traits disclosed different results of strength and quantity of links between the indicators of personality traits and perceived creativity in the different participants' groups. The research results will have enduring value in the scientific debate about the peculiarities of the expression of the components of students' perceived creativity and the personality traits and their interrelations, their practical significance foreseeing conditions and possibilities for efficiency of creativity expression in higher education.

“…With respect to microeconomic factors, contingency factors that influence CGQ identified in prior studies are many and distinct. Some of the most salient are ownership structure and concentration (Desender et al , 2013; Aluchna and Kaminski, 2017), firm position in the supply chain (Trkman and McCormack, 2009; Trkman et al , 2015), the presence of female members and family members on the board (Lazarides and Drimpetas, 2011), corporate sustainability orientation (Cadez and Guilding, 2017), consumer pressures for green products (Liu et al , 2017), mobilization of decision makers competences (Wong et al , 2017), corporate learning styles (Sitar et al , 2016), entrepreneurial openness (Slavec et al , 2017), strategic management accounting facets (Alamri, 2019), cognitive frames of key decision makers (Oblak et al , 2018), among others.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine empirically the evolution of corporate compliance with the eighth Company Law Directive (CLD) over time, the relationship between the degree of compliance with the eighth CLD and corporate governance quality (CGQ), and the relative effect of compliance with the eighth CLD and Sarbanes–Oxley Act (SOX) on CGQ. Design/methodology/approach The hypotheses are tested on a sample of EU firms that are cross listed in the EU and the USA and, thus, subject to both EU and US legislation, using fixed effects panel regression analysis. Findings The authors find that compliance levels with the eighth CLD are increasing over time, yet they vary considerably across constituent provisions. The authors also find that higher compliance is positively related to CGQ, although the effect size is higher for compliance with the eighth CLD than for compliance with SOX. Originality/value This study is original from many perspectives. Unlike most prior studies, which rely on binary variables to represent the constructs appraised in this study, novel and advanced measures of compliance and CGQ are constructed. Next, this study examines EU firms that have received very little research interest compared to US firms. Third, in an innovative approach, the authors appraise the relationship between the degree of compliance and CGQ longitudinally at both the aggregate and the constituent provision levels.
