“…but naturally question appears, where is the difference between the traditional state and welfare state concepts? According R. Harisalo and J. McInerney (2008), "the state has four major institutional tools available to promote its purposes. these are: services, regulation, financial transfers, and delegation to local government".…”

“…the previous social research investigated the welfare states/societies and public administration models separately, without trying to combine them worldwide (Kim, 2005;Green-Pedersen, Jensen, 2019;Stambolieva, 2015;Harisalo, McInerney, 2008;Gingrich, Häusermann, 2015;Gizelis, 2005). As we have outlined above, the models of welfare states were defined and investigated by titmuss, Esping-Andersen, Ferrera et al Sociologist titmuss distinguished the main three models: a marginal-residual, industrial achievements and universal-institutional-redistributive models.…”

It is pointed in the article that a significant and relevant direction of new social sciences in the body of the problems of research into welfare states (in general) and in central and Eastern European countries in particular, could be the investigation of the problem of compatibility and coherence between welfare state models and public administration models, to be more precise, examining if this relation is accidental or not. this problem of coherence between welfare state and public administration models has to be investigated empirically in subsequent research, as the author raises this problem firstly in this article theoretically.

“…Muutamat aiheesta tehdyt tutkimukset ovat perustuneet enemmänkin käsitteelliseen analyysiin kuin systemaattiseen empiiriseen tutkimukseen. Eräissä näistä lähtöoletukset määräävät lopputuloksen (Harisalo & Miettinen 2004;Harisalo & McInerney 2008). Myöskään edellä mainitut selvitykset ja tutkimukset eivät nosta aihetta jatkotutkimuksen kohteeksi, joskin hyvällä tahdolla teema voidaan sisällyttää esimerkiksi "vaikuttavuuden" käsitteen alle Kuivalaisen (2013) teoksessa.…”

“…The ability of the elderly to take care of themselves is affected by their internal factors and regional and environmental factors. In addition, the elderly of different genders also have commonalities as well as differences in their ability to care for themselves (Harisalo & McInerney, 2008). Systems science provides a comprehensive perspective for understanding health problems.…”

Background: The large number of mildly disabled elderly people in China has resulted in the occupation of a large amount of public social resources. They have also imposed a serious social burden on the society. This study predicts that changes in the level coefficients of physical functioning, motor participation, and external environment are associated with quality of life (QoL) among the elderly with mild disabilities in nursing homes. Methods: A simulation model was created using the system dynamics method. Meanwhile, a 50-day simulation was used to predict the subsequent changes in the level of QoL of the elderly. This study was completed in the nursing homes of Chengdu, China, using random sampling and 85 elderly subjects participated to obtain the primary data. The data were analyzed using the Vensim software. Results: The results showed that the level of physical functioning (pain value of 0.241, autonomy of 0.163, and chronic disease of 0.192), the level of motor participation (education value of 0.186, and rehabilitation partner of 0.21), and the level of external environment (medical care value of 0.26, and rehabilitation environment value of 0.184) lead to subsequent changes in the level of QoL of mildly disabled elderly in nursing homes in 30 days. Conclusion: Considering the results of this simulation study, changes in the level of physical functioning, exercise participation, and external environment could forecast the QoL of mildly disabled elderly in the nursing homes of Chania, China. It is necessary to make the required changes in the nursing homes to promote the QoL of these groups.
