Abstract:

Military marriages may be particularly vulnerable to marital distress and dissolution due to the unique challenges associated with military service. To better understand the research regarding military marriages, a critical literature review was conducted. Fifteen peer-reviewed, published articles were critically reviewed based on their theoretical applications and empirical findings. Articles were categorized according to stage in marriage and primary theoretical orientation. Results suggest that military marriages are at risk due to military factors, but they are also mostly stable. Results

Abstract:

The focus of this thesis is the study of mobile learning, specifically learning in different locations and under various contextual situations, from the perspective of university students. I initially derived and designed a theoretical mobile context-aware learning schedule (mCALS) framework from an extensive literature review. Its objective is to recommend appropriate learning materials to students based on their current locations and circumstances. The framework uses a learning schedule (i.e. electronic-based diary) to inform the location and available time a student has for learning/studyin

Abstract:

This overview was made to discuss coping with families who have lost a child/sibling, specifically children in preschool and elementary school. This subject can be daunting and difficult to navigate for parents however, understanding the importance of communication, involvement, and proper coping techniques is vital to the child’s development and perception of death. This educational poster discusses ways to tackle the issues that come when losing a child and give parents further insight into young minds dealing with tragedy. We look at Family Stress Theory to further explain assumptions about

Abstract:

Much investigation has explored the potential effects of video games in adolescence. However, limited research has been conducted on the effects of social video game play and individual and relational well-being in adults. The Social Organization Theory of Action and Change (SOAC) may be a helpful way to examine social behaviors (like gaming) and how they relate to well-being. This exploratory study will utilize the SOAC to examine social gaming behaviors in adults, and examine the relationships between these behaviors and adult individual and relational outcomes (e.g., loneliness, relationshi

Fathers play a major role in their son’s lives. From teaching them how to play football to having the birds and the bees talk with them.

For example, what did Mulan, the movie character, have in her life that some girls do not? A rare, yet healthy bond with her father could be the very factor that affected her attitude, values, and beliefs tremendously. The Social Learning Theory and nature versus nurture ideology a

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the factors that may be related to employees' decisions to use the family-friendly benefits (e.g., maternity/paternity leave, flexible work schedule) that are offered to them by their employers.

People who live with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) have to carefully self-administer insulin to keep blood glucose levels in a safe healthy range – a complex and demanding task (WHO, 2016). Social support has been found to alleviate diabetes-stress and increase management behaviors (Mackey et al., 2016). Social support from family members is especially advantageous, however currently no single family-based intervention has been established to show reliable improvements in T1D outcomes (Rosland et al., 2010).

Rather, the monitor indirectly receives updates over time from a source that can observe the process directly. The common main goal in these scenarios is to guarantee that the updates at the monitor side are as fresh as possible. However, due to the contention among the nodes in the net

A limited-angle torque motor is an electromagnetic actuator based on the Laws' relay principle, and in the present application the rotation required was from - 10° to + 10° in 16 ms, with a flyback period of 4 ms. To ensure good quality picture reproduction, an exceptionally high linearity of ±0.02 ° was necessary throughout the forward sweep. In addition, the drive voltage to the exciting winding of the motor should be

Abstract:

Abstract Employees experience challenges managing home and work. The increase of women in the workforce, single-parents, childcare, elder care responsibilities, and men in nontraditional roles warrant changes in traditional working hours and flexibility in work schedules. Through the theoretical frameworks of work-family conflict, spillover, border, and boundary theories, the purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore how flexible work arrangements (FWAs) assisted employees in meeting work and family obligations. Minimal research is available in the defense industry and the use of F

Abstract:

This thesis is a work focused on the application of the differential game theory to HIV therapeutic treatment, where a player is represented by the immune system of the subject (helped by drug therapy) which opposes the HIV virus. The aim of our study is to determine the optimal therapy that allows to prevent viral replication in his body (rather than the complete eradication of the infection, that remains chronic) so as to reduce the damage caused to the immune system, and allow greater survival and quality of life. To this end, our work is subdivided into 2 phases: in the first one we anal

Abstract:

Design trade-offs between estimation performance, processing delay and communication cost for a sensor scheduling problem is discussed. We consider a heterogeneous sensor network with two types of sensors: the first type has low-quality measurements, small processing delay and a light communication cost, while the second type is of high quality, but imposes a large processing delay and a high communication cost. Such a heterogeneous sensor network is common in applications, where for instance in a localization system the poor sensor can be an ultrasound sensor while the more powerful sensor ca

CPM has neglected to do with these uncertainties impacted in the project scheduling and controlling. Goldratt proposes a Critical chain project management method to overcome some of the problem inherent in

Regardless of the contract type, the core objective of project management is to facilitate the successful completion of projects within the triple constraints. For a contracted construction project, the triple constraints are absolutely crucial due to the restriction from the contract other than the unique construction environment itself. As a result, many invisible risks are embedded inside a construction proje

Applying the project schedule management, the project manager can well control the project implementation status, reduce the resource waste, and ensure the project completion quality to meet the project objectives. In the context of project management, many tools used to control the schedule of the project. However, the schedule delay issue that cause by human factor still cannot be effective treatment in the project schedule management. This study considers the project environment, te

Usando diferentes esquemas de intervalo variável (VI), Catania e Reynolds (1968) mostraram que os perfis da taxa local de resposta ao longo do tempo se relacionavam com os perfis da taxa local de reforço. Com base nisto, foi elaborada a conceção comportamental de timing, de acordo com a qual a taxa local de reforço controla a taxa lo
