Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Internet and media addiction research has grown in the past decades. We investigated the causal processes involved in the development of TV and Internet addiction. We conducted three studies to develop and validate new measures of TV and Internet affinity, or importance, based on the compulsion and salience dimensions. We discovered that TV and Internet compulsion parallels the incentive-sensitization theory¿s excessive wanting factor, and that compulsion and strength of habit of use are the main determinants of media dependence. We report that compulsion and habit totally mediated the impact of media use on addiction, and we suggest the ¿habit scrambling¿ and ¿habit replacement¿ techniques for dealing with behavioral addictions. Counseling professionals, policy makers, addiction specialists, and researchers of risk behaviors will benefit from the results of this research. Assessing behavioral compulsion along with common factors of risk can become a valuable screening practice for a range of behaviors that can potentially lead to abuse and psychological dependence.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -I was started my research only with one thinking ¿How we feel and understand sadness or happiness of others, why our eyes sometime filled with tears, when we see others crying or sad, why we cheer up when we see others happy, why we bless others, why we care for others, why we become sad when we watch sad seen in movies, why we motivate when we watch something exciting and meaningful in movies, why, why and why ¿ these are the big questions front of us. My common answer which support to all these questions is ¿when situation is common between two or more than two people they completely understand each other, because their brains neurons handling same situation. Some time may be feelings for other because of past common situation of us is the present situation of someone or may be sometime we think if that situation on me what I would do. Hence common situation either good or bad doesn¿t matter but common situation people show strong feelings about each other with respecting emotions and feelings of each others and this is because ¿common situation setup brain-to-brain link between people through which they understand feelings and emotions of each other¿.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Gender is becoming a famous terminology in Tanzania and Africa in general. The terminology was not popular in Tanzania some years back. This book provides a summary of historical background of the term gender and some of its related concepts. The book also provides the information about women empowerment and equal opportunities in decision making in Tanzania. The book also presents the findings of the study which sought the experience of the university students on gender issues at their homes and in schools. The book reveals that the term gender is not well understood even to the educated people. However, the book reveals that culture plays great role in the influence of people's relations in the society, and thus influence gender.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Executive compensation, especially in the financial sector, has long been the hot topic for debate. It recently got highlighted once again due to the global financial crisis that showed up as early as in 2008. The outcry is due to the existence of large proportion of performance-based compensation that encourages executives to take high risks in order to generate short-term profits, disregarding firm¿s future vulnerabilities. The finding showed no formal evidence for above hypothesis although many researchers argued in favor of some sort of executive compensation regulation based on accepted Principles. The book provides insight to the issues like: reason for excessive rise in executive compensation and its relation with risk-taking behavior; principles for executive compensation regulation and global response, with emphasis on Nepal (the blunder of Nepalese regulator, the Central Bank, and need for immediate revocation); and the way forward. The book may be important for students, scholars/professionals, and anyone interested in this field for policy-advocacy purpose. Policy makers, regulators, and government authorities will find it helpful in the decision-making process.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Many studies show that the inflow of FDI plays a significant role in generating employment opportunities in host countries. Over the past two decades, the East African Community (EAC) countries have attracted foreign direct investment from developed countries and FDI flows to the EAC region increased significantly. The objective of this study was to undertake an empirical analysis on creation of employment opportunities by FDI during 2004-2008 in Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda. We used the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The study shows that despite the clear enthusiasm of governments in these countries to attract FDI, its impact is not substantial in some of these countries. This book therefore, provides a new insight into the fields of international investments and economic development. The analysis should help shed some light into FDI and its impact on jobs creation in the EAC region, and should be especially useful to multinational corporations from developed countries and emerging economies. It is also likely to be of interest to policy makers and development practitioners in governments, non-governmental organizations and in the donor community.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -With this book we aim to contribute to the vast literature on conditional volatility models. Using the ARCH/GARCH class of models introduced in Engel¿s (1982) seminal paper we forecast one day ahead and ten days ahead Value-at-Risk on several exchange rates. The forecasts are done on a more volatile period than that period from which we estimate the models. We specify three models, GARCH(1,1), EGARCH(1,1) and GJR-GARCH(1,1) and test the models with three assumptions of the error distribution, normal, t and GED. We evaluate the models with Kupiec's (1995) test for unconditional coverage. The data ranges from January 1st 2006 through June 30th 2011. The results suggest that the GARCH(1,1) and GJR-GARCH(1,1) with normally distributed innovations are models adequately capturing the conditional variance in the series.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -According to the Ansar Burney Trust, approximately seventy percent of Pakistani women are subjected to domestic violence, including sexual violence, torture, and serious bodily injury. This work addresses sexual violence against women and children in Pakistan. It focuses on gender apartheid, oppression against females, in addition to sexual and domestic violence against women in the greater context of conflict. It takes a holistic approach in analyzing this problem, looking at violence against women through legal, psychological, sociological, and military perspectives. Protracted conflict exacerbates limitations on women¿s rights and further segregates women from society, ostracizing them from the community. As a result, it makes recommendations based on these observations in order to propose solutions to combat this problem.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Tax-benefit systems play an important role in the socioeconomic organisation of countries. Indeed, the distribution of income, living arrangements and the pattern of labor supply at one point in time are partly the outcome of past systems of taxation and social security benefits. The reason is that individuals react to the incentives displayed by those systems and modify their behavior accordingly. Tax-benefit systems need thus to be amended in some circumstances to account for changes in the socioeconomic circumstances. An obvious application is the ongoing question in economic literature and policy design of the choice of the unit of assessment in tax-benefit systems.The unspectacular evolution in women labor market participation observed over the past decades combined with an evolution of the structure of the family constituted major changes and challenged the traditional design of tax-benefit systems.This study will try to determine the current pattern governing household organization in terms of labor supply. The question will be to assert to what extent tax-benefit systems contribute to this situation and how they need to be amended to better reflect the changing conditions.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Internationalization is a topic of high actuality, and in this paper the spotlights is on how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) access foreign market opportunities and go international. This paper tends to investigate the internationalization process of Swedish SMEs and the contributions of social networks in the process. Immigrants are introduced as a social network. The results of the paper illustrate that the Swedish SMEs experience several barriers in the internationalization process due to the lack of financial resources and knowledge-related resources. They also gradually start the internationalization process in their neighbour countries. Moreover, the study shows that the immigrants contribute in the process of internationalization by providing the SMEs with market knowledge and through offering experiential learning.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Over the years organizations are facing the problem of abusive supervision. Compared with nonabused subordinates, abused subordinates have higher quit rates. Abusive supervision has a variety of consequences in the work organization. The ill-treatment on part of a colleague can be irritating but the illtreatment on part of a person who can exercise authority over employee becomes stressful and creates tension. In such state of mind the employees find there work as a mental sprain and their work become a burden for them due to lack of interest and energy. Organizations that follow abusive style of leadership eventually frustrate the employees leaving them with stress, emotional exhaustion and intentions to leave the job. The harmful consequences of abusive supervision highlight both the theoretical and practical importance of understanding how this phenomenon affects not only subordinates but their families as well.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Education is widely perceived as an indicator of the status of women and even more importantly, as an agent for the empowerment of women.This study aims to understand the role of Mahila Samakhya (MS) in the empowerment of adolescent girls and women through Mahila Shikshan Kendra (MSK), an education based programme. Mahila Samakhya ¿ meaning education for women¿s equality - was launched in 1989 by the Government of India in pursuance of the goals of NPE (national policy on education) 1986. This Study attempts to measure empowerment element (positive changes in socio-economic status) taking place among trainees of MSK. In conclusion, study reflects that MSK has helped adolescents in making them aware about their rights and responsibilities and instilling in them decision-making power of one's own by making them able to choose and able to demand. MSK creates individual empowerment in adolescents and women and it would be spreading long term empowerment if the curriculum of the course extends to secondary level.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Many theoretical studies as well as empirical investigations have proved that a well designed job leads towards motivated and satisfied employees. The focus of this research was to determine the job satisfaction and motivational level of the employees of banking sector of Pakistan through the application of job characteristics model given by Hackman & Oldham (1975). Empirical analysis techniques such as correlations and multiple regressions results showed that job characteristics are positively and significantly related to the personal outcomes: e.g.: general satisfaction, internal work motivation, growth satisfaction. The psychological states could not be proved as mediator between the job characteristics and personal outcomes. However importance of psychological states cannot be ignored. Regression coefficients of psychological states also showed the significant amount of variance explained by psychological states. The growth need strength could also not be proved as moderator. Overall the implications of this research can be very helpful for designing the motivating and satisfying jobs for the banking sector employees.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The control of intraocular pressure (IOP) in cataract surgery is essential to surgical outcome, as uncontrolled increases in IOP may result in unplanned vitreous expulsion and subsequent blindness. Various anaesthetic techniques have been investigated for containment of the pressor response associated with laryngeal stimulation when airway devices are placed. Among these is the use of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) with or without drugs known to attenuate the pressor response. This book is about the influence on IOP of placement of either the LMA or the endotracheal tube (ETT) and compares the two airway devices regarding their impact on IOP following a standard anaesthetic induction. The LMA causes minimal changes in IOP when used to secure the airway during cataract surgery. The rise in IOP following endotracheal intubation is significant, yet transient and probably insignificant. This book will be of interest and benefit to medical professionals in Anaesthesiology and Ophthalmology.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Total surface area of Kosova is 10,877 km or 1,087,700 ha, where about 47 % or 512,714 ha is comprised by forest and forestland. The forest resources of Kosova is known to have a problem with degraded forests and shrub forest. These forests comprise about 40.9 % or 182,202 hectare of the total forest area indicating that in terms of quality and timber mass production it¿s actually not very rich. The alleviation of firewood shortage is one of the major challenges as well. The goal is to gradually transform the degraded forests and shrub forests into higher producing forests, with the aim of improving the wood productivity, an advanced forestland management and the environment benefits that they offer. Sustainable forest management (SFM) requires the balancing of economic, environmental, and social objectives. The linkage between SFM and timber economics lies in the desire to achieve a sustainable flow of economic goods from forests and to maintain healthy forests capable of providing benefits into the future.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The most important objective of root canal therapy is to minimize the number of microorganisms and pathologic debris in the root canal system. Thorough instrumentation of the canal has long been considered to be an essential component in the cleaning and shaping process. Mechanical instrumentation and irrigation are sound endodontic principles and essential components of successful endodontics. Clinicians desire easier and faster endodontic therapy. Manufacturers developed nickel-titanium rotary instrumentation systems to facilitate the cleaning and shaping process. They are popular because of their apparent ease of use and reduced number of instruments. Protaper rotary instruments have recently enjoyed a wide popularity. This study is intended to know the effect of increased canal enlargement by protaper rotary instruments in reducing the number of intracanal bacteria.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Cancerous cells are persistently exposed to more oxidative stress than adjacent normal cells as a result of abnormal regulation of some enzymes. Consequently, excessive amounts of hydrogen peroxide are accumulated in tumour cells. Iron-containing compounds, such as ferrocene, can react with hydrogen peroxide through Fenton reaction where highly reactive hydroxyl radicals are formed. These radicals possess a damaging effect on the DNA of the cancer cells, thereby inducing the apoptosis and inhibiting cancerous cell growth. Ferrocene on its own has no affinity for tumour cells and if administered as it is, it will not be specifically delivered to these targets. This book outlines a simple approach for targeting the ferrocene via conjugation with nucleoside. The ferrocene-linked nucleosides are supposed to be preferentially taken up by actively dividing cancerous cells where they are phosphorylated intracellularly into the corresponding nucleotides. These nucleotides will then become incorporated into the cellular DNA. This is advantageous as the radicals will be generated near the DNA, thus making the damage more significant.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 112 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Cancer is a group of diseases in which cells in the body grow, change and multiply out of control. Usually, cancer is named after the body part in which it originated; thus, breast cancer refers to the erratic growth and proliferation of cells that originate in the breast tissue. Breast cancer is a complex, multifactorial disease where there is a strong interplay between genetic and environmental factors. Comparative genomic hybridization studies on primary BC and BC cell lines describe a complex pattern of DNA gains and losses in the tumor compared with normal tissue. Among these deleted regions we have focused on chr.11q24.2 region To understand the importance of frequent deletions at chromosome 11q24.2 region in breast carcinoma, alterations (deletion/methylation) of the candidate genes PIG8 and CHEK1 located in this region were analyzed in breast carcinoma samples. Among these genes, PIG8 (35%), CHEK1 (31%). Comparable frequency of promoter methylation (26-35%) was observed for CHEK1 and PIG8. Overall alterations (deletion/methylation) of these genes were in the following order: PIG8 (46%)Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Steganography is the ability to write stealthy messages with such a approach that not a soul except for the intentional receiver knows of the existence of the covert message. It is the skill of concealing information. It hides covert messages in ¿naïve -appearing¿ unrestricted statement devoid of anyone knowing the existence of secreted data. Steganography is intended to hide the existence of the covert message in a clandestine communication. The proposed Steganography way can be employed for Internet Communications data transfer undisclosed. The projected work is been tested for eighty one different cases for the nine file formats of three types of files. The file types used are image files, text files, and executable file.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Biogeography is the study of the geographic distribution of organisms. Biogeographers seek to understand ecological processes (e.g. climatic stability and effect of area) that influence the distribution of living organisms over short periods of time and to uncover events occurring in the distant past (e.g. continental drift and evolution) which have resulted in the geographic distribution observed today. The Earth¿s surface consists of a mosaic of rigid plates, each moving relative to adjacent plates. A large super-continent pangea split into smaller fragments about 200-300 million years ago. These then drifted apart to form the present arrangement of continents. The most important factors today that influence the life of birds, as well as of all other organisms, relate to human activities in general, and to habitat destruction and climate change in particular. Africa and its associated islands have over 1,300 Important Bird Areas for the conservation of bird populations.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

The use of remote sensing with ground information is becoming effective method in improving success rate. In this work thematic layers generated from satellite images, existing maps and ground survey results were integrated to delineate the groundwater potential zones. Lineament, thermal lineament, soil moisture, vegetation anomaly and landuse/landcover factors maps were generated from images and slope, drainage density and lithology were derived from existing maps. The zone of weathering layer is generated from water point inventory and Vertical Electrical Sounding survey interpretation results. Data derived from different sources were processed, analyzed and reclassified to common scale and weighted. Multi-criteria evaluation using pairwise comparison matrix was used for ranking the thematic layers. Then raster based GIS modeling was conducted using Weighted Linear Combination method to generate the groundwater prospect map. The resulting groundwater prospect map revealed large part of the study area has poor groundwater potential which is in good agreement with the field survey result.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Biomechanics has been developed to consider the mechanics and the range of human movements. Storage places in the house are the most important places for every workstation where required items for work performance are stored.Limited space available for human beings leads to the alteration of behavioral patterns and attitudes of the users of the space and eventually causes stress and strain. Adequate and well designed houses not only protect people against health hazards but also help to promote good health, economic productivity, psychological well being and social vigor. Desirable sequence of work cannot be maintained without the provision of adequate storage spaces. Due to faulty storage structure in the house many homemakers suffers from various types of biomechanical problems such as curved back, hunched shoulders and distorted legs and feet. The major causative factors responsible for biomechanical pain are the static muscular effort and unnatural body postures made by women while using the faulty storage structure.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 112 pp. Englisch.
