There exists an extensive body of literature focusing on impression management, with numerous studies addressing the effects of gender performance on members of the GLBT community. Despite a growing body of literature that centers on the differences between the genders, there exists a lack of research regarding the transgender community's ability to use impression management. This exploratory study addresses subjective experiences regarding transgender identity, and concentrates on self-definition and impression management in everyday life.

The transition from one energy system to another has been analysed by many researchers especially in the context of developed countries.

Objectives: Transitions of care (ToC) for a high-risk neonatal population, and in some cases inappropriate and early discharge, can have important implications for community and broader population health.

Sustainability, and transitions away from currently prevailing unsustainability, is a project with political (economic) and cultural dimensions.
