Comparing qualitative research methodologies for systemic research: The use of grounded theory, discourse analysis and narrative analysis Many of the qualitative research methods developed in the social sciences are well suited to explore research questions pertinent for the systemic field, a...

However, the main purpose of our study was to explore the relative contributions of EVT constructs and vocational interests in predicting math achievement and STEM major choices when considered simultaneously. 1.1. Explaining Career Choices with Expectancy-Value Theory The basic assumption of EVT (...
Technology Assisted Research Methodologies: The Two Factors of the Data Quality Decision ModelData quality is a concept that has received much attention in the recent past. This work uses multi-attribute utility theory and proposes a decision choice model (TARM-DQM) and function (Q) based on ...
Scatter plot displaying individual Mendelian randomization estimates of the effect of SNPs on PM2.5 increasing and risk of 25 types of cardiovascular diseases. (A) Atherosclerotic heart disease, main, (B) Atherosclerotic heart disease, secondary, (C) Angina pectoris unspecified, main, (D) Angina pe...
The main contribution of this study is to present the mixed integer linear programming model for the problem which considers release times for parts in scheduling area, loading and unloading times of parts which transferred by robots. New methodologies are investigated for solving the proposed model....
Electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools have become indispensable in the design of contemporary antennas. Still, the major setback of EM-driven design is the associated computational overhead. This is because a single full-wave simulation may take from doz
We find that, because people are required to be actively involved in the production of their food, participants of both cases are neither only producers nor only consumers; they are both. The gardens show a 'sliding scale of producership'. Our research also shows that, although reflexive ...
managers need to assess and understand the environmental conditions. Therefore, it is best practice to regularly monitor the indoor environment, of which temperature and relative humidity are the main factors. There are international standards and guidelines directed at different types of heritage collecti...
Here we present two novel methodologies to describe chiral amplification in two-component, self-assembling systems that take into account the coupling between the cooperative growth of the supramolecular polymer and the monomer pool. Both methodolo- gies are based on a common reaction scheme in which...
Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are the main forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). They affect the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, which becomes severely damaged and inflamed, due to an abnormal response of the body’s immune system1,2and deregulated homeostasis between the...
