While focusing on how to conduct research, this literature has largely neglected the question of why a study should be undertaken. The limited discussions that can be found suggest that new research is justified if it (1) fills a 'gap'; (2) addresses an important real-world problem; and/...
These are gaps in the data available on a particular subject. For example, there may be a need for more research to collect data on a specific population or to develop new measures to collect data on a particular construct. 5. Practical gaps These...
(BASE-II), obtained in 2009–14 from 1,869 participants aged 60 years and older. In this database, numbers of gender-related variables were identified and used to construct a gender score among an elderly, non-working European cohort.7We recommend against such approaches as gender, much ...
Laser beams are split up in order to construct a hologram, causing the light waves that make up the two parts of the beam to travel in similar fashion. It is due to this that the image seems to change. This is also what lends holograms their characteristic three-dimensional quality. What...

Therefore, this article combines the social network theory, social exchange theory, and SOR theory to construct a conceptual model (see Figure 1) to investigate the influence of CR and PV, and the mediation role of SE, and the moderation role of knowledge level. Figure 1. The theoretical ...
initiatives, and initially there was a lot of buzz around it. We used a rigorous stage-gate process—combined with agile methodologies—to ensure that only the high-value initiatives received follow-on funding. Putting the stage-gate process into an agile construct vastly improved our decision ...

They bridge the gap between theory and practice, showcase your skills, develop critical thinking and problem-solving, and gain industry experience. Above all, they help you build your portfolio as a data analyst.And to work on real-world projects, you need to find the relevant data to ...
These projects taught him how to construct a home based on standard building codes in Pennsylvania. While on college breaks, he worked on electrical, plumbing, drywall repair, and all types of property maintenance. These skills allow him to remodel portions of his own properties, as well as ...
