Urinary incontinence affects up to 70% of residents living in a long-term care facility and can affect their quality of life. Specifically, urinary incontinence has a direct impact on older adults in regards to self-esteem, pressure ulcer development, falls, urinary tract infections, and psychosocial wellbeing. The goal of this quality improvement pilot project was to determine if an electronic health record (EHR) assessment tool could help older adults remain continent longer and assist in maintaining an independent lifestyle.

Abstract:

Consumers consistently set goals for themselves. Despite good intentions, consumers often deviate from their goals. If consumers understand the benefits that arise from goal success, then why do most consumers fail to accomplish goals? Often, temptations are more appealing than achievement of goals; temptations are tangible while the benefits of a goal are difficult to grasp. An individual who uses his/her imagination to visualize goal success makes the goal more present-minded and attainable (Oettingen 2000). Thus, imagination facilitates self-efficacy, the belief in one’s ability to reach a

This thesis provides insights into the capital investment behaviour of firms and examines the efficiency of their capital allocation decisions through an analysis of investment-cash flow sensitivities. While internal liquidity is widely acknowledged to play a trivial role in determining investment in perfect capital markets, the existence of market frictions may give rise to agency problems, as well as, restricted access to finance, which lead to the excess sensitivity of cash flows widely documented.

Paradoxically, Australian school leaders too report high levels of job satisfaction. Evidently, the current wellbeing profile of our school leaders in complex.

Abstract:

Mining related activities are more expansive than ever before, with population growth data showing an exponential increase. These societies form part of the world consumer market in which people are constantly buying products with a short life-expectancy, such as consumer electronic devices. More often than not, these mining activities occur in developing countries or rural areas. A repercussion of mines located long distances from active communities is the formation of new communities based solely on the monetary system of a mine.

Environmental degradation and biodiversity loss are worldwide problems caused by human activities, which can often be classified as a resource dilemma.

Across three studies, and using Self-Determination Theory (SDT) as a framework, this thesis examines the relationships between motivation, goals, sanctioning systems and proenvironmental behav

Abstract:

Individuals who suffer from depression can be stigmatized by labeling and resort to negative stigma coping orientations such as secrecy and withdrawal, resulting in internalized self-stigma. Self-stigma can have negative effects such as low self-esteem, low self-efficacy, isolation, and feeling like a failure. Guided by modified labeling theory, the purpose of this study was to fill a gap in the literature on predictors of two orientations (challenging and deflecting) of positive stigma coping. Challenging stigma involves taking action, and deflecting is a cognitive strategy; both are used to

Abstract:

This dissertation situates literary modernism in the context of a nascent form of globalization. Before it could be fully acknowledged global encroachment was, by virtue of its novelty, repeatedly experienced as a kind of shattering or disintegration. Through an examination of three modernist novels, I argue that a general modernist preoccupation with space both expresses and occludes anxieties over a globe which suddenly seemed to be too small and too undifferentiated. Building upon recent critical work that has begun to historicize modernist understandings of space, I address the as yet unde

Abstract:

Neighbourhood private security patrol as a crime control strategy demonstrates society's increasing demand for security and assurance- factors which the public police provide ineffectively. Private security's function of preventative surveillance is likely to be aligned more closely to public needs than is the public police's post-event priority of detection. Street patrol by private security personnel symbolizes an attempt by some citizens to re-create the preventative aspects of traditional policing. But it predominates only in the residential areas of the economically privileged. This deman

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 115-119).<br>This thesis tests the sufficiency of the definition of permanent establishments (PE), as contained in the Double Tax Agreements (DTAs) of selected "fishing rich" African countries, in protecting their taxing rights over profits made by non-residents from fishing in the waters of their states. The concept and meaning of "fixed place of residence" and "any other place of extraction” of natural resources is analysed in the context of establishing a PE in the Source State, taking various rules of interpretation, commentaries, judicial and ac

Abstract:

Dans cette thèse, nous présentons une nouvelle approche pour la simulation numérique des phénomènes électroconvectifs et électro-therrno-convectifs. La principale difficulté réside dans la détermination du champ électrique et de la distribution de densité volurnique de charges électriques. Dans cette approche, des schémas de type TVD (Total Variation Dirninishing) et IDC (ImprovedDeferred Correction) sont utilisées dans la discrétisation des flux convectifs et diffusifs par la méthode des volumes finis. La première partie de cette thèse présente certains aspects numériques liés à l'implémentat

Abstract:

In this thesis I reframe theories of love-relationships in late modernity (by Anthony Giddens, Zygmunt Bauman and Ulrich Beck & Elisabeth Beck-Gernsheim) in relation to a general framework of discursive theory (inspired by Michel Foucault). I suggest that current developments and contradictions in the field of love-relationships with advantage can be understood in terms of discourse and discursive conflict. Utilizing the discursive framework, I conceptualize two conflicting discursive regimes (as romantic love and individualized freedom), and their components. With these components in mind

Abstract:

<p>The present thesis follows an intensive care unit during four year of hard work and demanding organisational changes (1998-2001). The changes were mainly initiated by diminishing resources and a legislative claim to pay regard to the quality aspect of health care service. The process of implementing a quality system was the main focus for the thesis. Triangulation was used aiming at explore the process from different views. Two interviews studies were conducted one with the staff and another with the leadership. Both interviews were analysed thematically combined with a phenomenographic tec

Approved for public release; distribution in unlimited.<br>This thesis represents a cross Systems Command (NAVSEA/NAVAIR) developed product. The product - the Sunset Supply Base (SSB) system - provides a complete system for addressing the risks and supportability issues involved with Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) products in Navy combat and support systems. The SSB system was implemented on three Navy combat weapon systems at various phases of the product development life cycle. The main body provides to the Program Management Offices (PMO) and other decision makers, a high level summary of
