Abstract:

Obesity represents a serious threat to health which can be reduced by volitional control of eating and physical activity behaviour. Social cognition theories propose that such behaviour is influenced by cognitions regarding its desirability. The role of obesity outcome expectancies in predicting weight control behaviour has not been established and there are no psychometrically sound measures of these constructs. This thesis aimed to investigate the relationship between knowledge and beliefs regarding obesity's consequences and weight control Intentions in obese patients. The Obesity Risk Know

Abstract:

Introduction: Nursing presence occurs when nurses expend themselves on the behalf of a unique patient. This phenomenon requires further research to develop instruments. The Presence of Nursing Scale (PONS) measures the patient’s perspective (Kostovich, 2012). Psychometric testing of PONS-Revised using exploratory factor analysis is warranted to further develop a reliable and valid measure of nursing presence. Contextual workplace variables need exploration in inpatient settings for correlation with nursing presence. Method(s): A convenience sample of 122 adult inpatients from ten acute-care nu

Abstract:

As epidemiologic research demonstrates health concerns for hand problems among pianists, scientists are measuring historic piano keyboards and realizing that much of the piano literature was composed for and played on pianos with smaller keys compared to what is used on the modern piano. Having to play this literature on a larger keyboard is especially difficult for small-handed piano students and professionals. Fortunately, smaller keyboards are now available for use with standard pianos - and research shows that this ergonomic adjustment does reduce piano-related hand pain for small-handed m

Abstract:

The purpose of most images is to effectively convey information. Implicit in this assumption is the fact that the recipient of that information is a human observer, with a visual system responsible for converting raw sensory inputs into the perceived appearance. The appearance of an image not only depends on the image itself, but the conditions under which it is viewed as well as the response of human visual system to those inputs. This thesis examines the scale-dependent nature of image appearance, where the same stimulus can appear different when viewed at varying scales, that arises from

Abstract:

Visual texture has multiple perceptual attributes (e.g. regularity, isotropy, etc.), including scale. The scale of visual texture has been defined as the size of the repeating unit (or texel) of which the texture is composed. Not all textures are formed through the placement of a clearly discernible repeating unit (e.g. irregular and stochastic textures). There is currently no rigorous definition for texture scale that is applicable to textures of a wide range of regularities. We hypothesised that texture scale ought to extend to these less regular textures. Non-overlapping sample windows (or

Abstract:

Brand equity is perhaps the most important marketing concept in both academia and practice. The term came into use during the late 1980s; and the importance of conceptualizing, measuring, and managing brand equity has grown rapidly in the eyes of practitioners and academics alike. This has resulted in several often-divergent view-points on the dimensions of brand equity, the factors that influence it, the perspectives from which it should be studied, and the ways to measure it. Many different definitions and ways to measure brand equity have been proposed, and most of them are based upon the d

Abstract:

A model of stereopsis is proposed in which information from each eye's image is organised as a scale-based hierarchy before binocular comparison. The algorithm incorporates coarse-to-fine matching (like Marr and Poggio, 1979) but differs from previous models in that the position, and hence disparity, of features is defined relatively rather than by their retinal co-ordinate. Thus, fine scale disparities are measured and recorded relative to coarse scale disparities. Local surface slant and curvature is represented explicitly at a range of spatial scales. The theory is based on a hierarchical m

Abstract:

Perception of scale is important to our activity within a space and to our experience of a landscape. This presents a problem if people cannot predict or convey the scale effects of large structures proposed in a landscape, as has been the case for recent wind turbine proposals in Scotland. To address this problem, this research explored how people perceive scale and scale effects in a landscape. It took wind turbines as an example structure and analysed how different scales of windfarm create different scale effects in different landscapes, as well as how to best assess and communicate these

Abstract:

This study extends the emerging research on prestige consumption. The objective of this research is to examine the concept of prestige with the goals of designing a conceptual framework and developing a scale (i.e., semantic differential) able to measure the meaning of this concept. There are several reasons why it is important to develop a scale measuring the concept of prestige. First, there exists no clear definition concerning what constitutes a prestige brand compared to a nonprestige brand. The second reason supporting this research is the lack of theoretical direction concerning the co

Each time we meet a new person, we draw inferences based on our impressions. The first thing we are likely to notice is a personâ s face. The face functions as one source of information, which we combine with the spoken word, body language, past experience, and the context of the situation to form judgments. Facial expressions serve as pieces of information we use to understand what another person is thinking, saying, or feeling. While there is strong support for the universality of emotion recognition, the ability to identify and interpret facial expressions varies by individual. Existing sc

Abstract:

This study was designed to investigate the meaning of health to Indo-Canadians. Given the increasingly multicultural nature of Canadian society and the nursing profession's growing recognition of the importance of cross-cultural knowledge, this area of investigation is both timely and relevant. The explanatory model of Arthur Kleinman (1978a,b, 1980, 1984) was the framework which guided the researcher to adopt the phenomenological method to conduct this qualitative study. The phenomenological method is highly suitable for enquiry into the perception and explanation of the health phenomenon.

Abstract:

Background: Radon is a high impact environmental pollutant and is the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada. Despite the gravity of the health risk, residents have inadequate awareness and have taken minimum preventive actions. The success of any population-level health awareness program is contingent on the views and actions of key decision makers at the household level. People's perceptions of the risk should inform health communication messaging that aims to motivate them to take preventive measures. The objective of this study was to measure the quantifiable associations and predic

The ability to use two ears can substantially improve performance in many circumstances. There are times, however, when the addition of a second ear results in poorer performance (i.e., contra-aural interference). Contra-aural interference is of interest because it is not explained by current auditory models, it has theoretical ramifications, and its understanding could lead to improvements in t

Abstract:

Good time management (TM) skills have been related to both physical and psychological health. This dissertation focused on the development of a content valid measure of TM to allow further exploration of this relationship. Such an instrument, in the future, could allow identification of specific TM skills related to specific health-related behaviors. In order to create this instrument and explore the relationship between it and health related variables, five studies were undertaken to: a) write items to assess all identified TM elements (Study l), b) submit these items to subject matter expert
