Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat. A project sponsored jointly by the Public Sector Service Delivery Council and the Public Sector Chief Information Officers' Council. eContact is a multi-jurisdictional solution that will improve access to government services by connecting citizens and service agents to accurate information through a user-friendly interface. It is designed to connect citizens with the information or service they require by quickly identifying their needs and directing them to the appropriate contact. The fundamental benefits of eContact are improved service and higher citizen satisfaction. The eContact approach is different because it is a solution that integrates information across jurisdictions and uses natural language querying to address the terminology gap between governments and citizens. The system does this by using natural language processing which allows citizens to express their questions in familiar language rather than government terminology specific to a program or service. 1, record 1, English, - eContact%20%2D%20Service%20Improvement%20Initiative

Secrétariat du Conseil du Trésor du Canada. Un projet parrainé conjointement du Conseil de la prestation des services du secteur public et le Conseil des dirigeants principaux de l'information du secteur public. eContact est une solution intergouvernementale qui améliorera l'accès aux services gouvernementaux en reliant les citoyens et les agents de services à des renseignements exacts à l'aide d’une interface conviviale. eContact est conçu pour que les citoyens obtiennent de l'information ou rejoignent le service requis en cernant rapidement leurs besoins et en les dirigeant vers le contact approprié. Un service amélioré et une plus grande satisfaction des clients constituent les avantages fondamentaux de eContact. Il s’agit d’une approche différente, parce que c'est une solution qui regroupe les renseignements de tous les paliers de gouvernement et qui utilise l'interrogation en langage naturel pour combler l'écart terminologique entre les gouvernements et les citoyens. Le système effectue le traitement en langage naturel, ce qui permet aux citoyens de formuler leurs questions dans un langage familier plutôt qu'en utilisant la terminologie gouvernementale particulière à un programme ou à un service. 1, record 1, French, - eContact%20%2D%20Initiative%20d%26rsquo%3Bam%C3%A9lioration%20des%20services

Selon Maslow(1970), chaque individu doit combler ses besoins "inférieurs" avant que ceux d’un niveau supérieur puissent se manifester. Leur hiérarchie est la suivante : a) besoins physiologiques(besoin d’aliments et d’eau) ;b) besoin de sécurité(recherche d’un milieu exempt de dangers pour la vie) ;c) besoin d’appartenance et d’affection(rapports affectifs avec les autres) ;d) besoin de valorisation personnelle; e) besoin d’actualisation de soi, qui ne peut faire surface qu'après la satisfaction des autres besoins. 4, record 2, French, - hi%C3%A9rarchie%20des%20besoins

Teoría de la motivación propuesta por Maslow en 1954, basada en la hipótesis de que la persona tiene diversas necesidades que se pueden ordenar por importancia. Una vez satisfecha la necesidad más importante deja de ser un motivo, y se trata de satisfacer el siguiente nivel. Maslow distinguió cinco niveles: necesidades fisiológicas, de seguridad, de aceptación y cariño, de estima social, y de autorrealización. 2, record 2, Spanish, - jerarqu%C3%ADa%20de%20necesidades
