Abstract:
This study conducts a systematic review and provides a comprehensive up-to-date review of the literature about diversity on corporate boards. Unlike previous studies, we do not restrict our search to a specific type of diversity (e.g., gender diversity) or limited firm outcomes (e.g., firm performance). Our aim is to review, evaluate, synthesize, and summarize the literature and extend our knowledge on five key areas: 1) the theoretical approach (going beyond the theoretical analysis of each article by exploring how the theoretical perspective informs their focus); 2) dominant framing and theo

Some analysts assert that a failure by the discipline of international relations to predict the end of the Cold War reinforces their conviction that predominant theories as well as systematic empirical analyses of international politics have proved fruitless. Accurate predictions are an important product of useful theory, partly because predictions cannot be modified in order to accommodate the events upon which they focus, since the outcomes to be accounted for are unknown. But predictions are contingent statements about the future, not unconditional assertions, which might more accurately be

Claiming it as hypothetico-deductivist, and falsificationist, cladists have transformed and distorted Popper, that almost nothing of these ideas survived scrutiny.

A surprising amount of 20th-century (and earlier) English-language poetry employs rhyme, but not the rhyme we normally think of, which marks the end of the line in metrical poetry, but a kind of half-intentional half-accidental rhyme that can appear anywhere within the text. This type of rhyming, which I term ‘sporadic’ and distinguish from ‘systematic,’ has illuminating potential as it relies on, but also departs from traditional rhyme functions. As such, it asks for a new theorization. In this essay I elaborate the core characteristics of sporadic rhyming, and then exemplify and qualify thes

It is demonstrated that, from the outset, Tillich extended the traditional soteriological interpretation of Protestantism into a universal-cosmological theory.

Drawing from reviews and assessments of Hull's theorizing which appeared in the period 1943–1960, this paper treats Hull's impact and subsequent decline as inevitable outcomes of the programmatic nature of Hull's behavior theory.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to get an overview of current theory and practice in early assessments of medical devices, and to identify aims and uses of early assessment methods used in practice.Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted in September 2013, using computerized databases (PubMed, Science Direct, and Scopus), and references list search. Selected articles were categorized based on their type, objective, and main target audience. The methods used in the application studies were extracted and mapped throughout the early stages of development and for their particul

The standard format of matrices belonging to Lie superalgebras consists of partitioning the matrices into even and odd blocks. In this paper, we present a systematic study of other possible matrix formats and in particular of the so-called diagonal format which naturally occurs in various physical applications, e.g. for the supersymmetric versions of conformal field theory, integrable models.

Abstract:
AbstractWhile exam-style questions are a fundamental educational tool serving a variety of purposes, manual construction of questions is a complex process that requires training, experience, and resources. This, in turn, hinders and slows down the use of educational activities (e.g. providing practice questions) and new advances (e.g. adaptive testing) that require a large pool of questions. To reduce the expenses associated with manual construction of questions and to satisfy the need for a continuous supply of new questions, automatic question generation (AQG) techniques were introduced.

This study describes a systematic model of Distribution STATCOM (D-STATCOM) to reduce voltage sag, and swell using Instantaneous reactive power theory also called Power Quality theory (IRPT or PQ) and Synchronous reference frame theory (SRF) using NPC three level inverter. Power quality is an event that manifests as an abnormal frequency, current and voltage resulting in the failure of end-use equipment. The main issues addressed here are voltage sag and swell. Custom power devices are utilised to overcome this problem. The Distribution STATCOM (D-STATCOM) is one of these devices, and it is th

"Open innovation" and "external search" for new ideas are central topics in the recent discourse in innovation research. External search helps firms to identify new opportunities for innovation and alleviates the risks of local search. It is widely acknowledged that novel ideas regularly emerge from the combination of distant pieces of knowledge and interaction with "idea suppliers" from distant knowledge domains. However, the current discussion on open innovation has hardly touched upon the question of how firms can systematically search for cross-industry innovation inputs in the fuzzy front

AbstractMammaṭa Bhaṭṭa’s magnum opus, the Kāvyaprakāśa, composed at the tail-end of over two centuries of debate in Kashmir on Ānandavardhana’s theory of suggestion, has long been recognized for its encyclopedic and systematic aspirations, but as is argued in this article, the exact nature of Mammaṭa’s theory in relation to Ānandavardhana’s has been misunderstood. Specifically, Mammaṭa reclassifies the poetic ornaments (alaṅkāras) as non-suggestive poetry (avyaṅgya), in contrast to Ānandavardhana, for whom the ornaments are poetry of subordinate suggestion (guṇībhūtavyaṅgya).

Response of magnetospheric oscillatory systems in the ultra-low-frequency (ULF) range on electromagnetic, mechanical, thermal, and chemical impulse action are overviewed and selectively analyzed. Impulses can occur both inside the magnetosphere (e.g. explosion in the geomagnetic tail, impulsive injection of energetic particles) and outside (e.g. solar flare, interplanetary shock wave, thunderstorm discharge, earthquake, volcanic eruption etc.). We suggest systematics of impulses which is based on geophysics and space physics data and is closely related to the theory of ULF oscillations. The sy

In contrast to other treatments of this issue (e.g., Institute of Medicine [IOM], 2011), we specifically emphasize how advancements in medical simulation and its systematic integration could contribute to a solution. Additionally, we emphasize the importance of Human–Systems Integration processes for this course of action.

In this paper, an Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) lens of a single layer is invented to improve the gain of a truncated slotted square patch antenna for the Wi-Fi applications. The proposed EBG lens is structured from 55 planar array. The individual unit cell is basically shaped as a couple of a split concave conductive patch. The proposed EBG struc- ture performance is tested numerically using Finite Integration Technique (FIT) formulations of CSTMWS and analytically using circuit theory. Then, the antenna performance in terms of |S11|, the boresight gain, and radiation patterns are reported a
