This research is unique as it formulates and introduces novel frameworks that close these gaps in literature. The value of this research lies in the fact that it makes significant contribution in terms of under
For construct clean-up, we suggest that the two proactive personality constructs can be taken as functionally equivalent and that this is also true to some extent for the three proactive behavior constructs—the latter signify proactive behavior. All proactive concepts showed clear correlations with ...
Concepts allow us to make sense of the world. Most evidence on their acquisition and representation comes from studies of single decontextualized words and focuses on the opposition between concrete and abstract concepts (e.g., “bottle” vs. “truth”). A significant step forward in research on...
Two dominant perspectives of job crafting-the original theory from Wrzesniewski and Dutton (2001) and the job demands resources perspective from Tims, Bakker, and Derks (2012)-remain separate in research. To synthesize these perspectives, we propose a three-level hierarchical structure of job cra...
This approach offers a veritable alternative to examining and validating these constructs that are useful to space providers, designers, managers and users in understanding the interactions between space, people and process.doi:10.1108/09699980610680199...
The fieldwork method chosen was based on the concepts of erasure, origination, transformation and migration. Findings showed that the randomisation of sites visited enabled a different set of analytical constructs to be established, which might otherwise have remained obscured by traditional preconception...
The demand for biomaterials that promote the repair, replacement, or restoration of hard and soft tissues continues to grow as the population ages. Traditionally, smart biomaterials have been thought as those that respond to stimuli. However, the continu

In particular, we demonstrate the utility of Peano, Greek cross, Vicsek and other fractal constructs to yield space-filling structures of electronic materials, including monocrystalline silicon, for electrophysiological sensors, precision monitors and actuators, and radio frequency antennas. These devices ...
These variables may be alternative constructs for measuring access to resources in the place of income, poverty, or wealth measures. For example, Town- send created an index that took account of diet, clothing, housing, work, recreation, and education, among other factors, to measure deprivation...
