in order to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitude and health behaviour among menopausud women, a random sample of 250 menopaused women was studied. the data was collected by using a questionnaire and analysed by the spss programe. the study showed that seventy woman (28%) had good knowledge, only twenty seven women (11%) had a positive attitude, and forty women (16%) had good h...

The asymptotic behaviour of cubic field theories is investigated in the Regge limit using the techniques of environmentally friendly renormalization, environmentally friendly in the present context meaning asymmetric in its momentum dependence. In particular we consider the crossover between large and small energies at fixed momentum transfer for a model scalar theory of the type φ 2 ψ. The asy...

It is generally assumed that an individual of a prey species can benefit from an increase in the number of its group's members by reducing its own investment in vigilance. But what behaviour should group members adopt in relation to both the risk of being preyed upon and the individual investment in vigilance? Most models assume that individuals scan independently of one another. It is generall...

Although the importance of individual characteristics and psychological factors has been conceptualized in many models of information seeking behaviour (e.g., Case 2007; Wilson 1999) research into personality issues has only recently attracted attention in information science. This may be explained by the work by Heinström (2002; 2003; 2006a; 2006b; 2006c), but may also be explained by the emer...

The pervasive computing field envisions users surrounded by computers embedded in everyday devices. Such devices form dynamic networks which change topology as users move about. Software services are expected to maximise available computational capacities by seamlessly coordinating with each other. The services should also react to dynamic changes in the environment and adapt their behaviour ac...
