Matching a set of agents to a set of objects has many real applications. One well-studied framework is that of prioritybased matching, in which each object is assumed to have a priority order over the agents. The Deferred Acceptance (DA) and Top-Trading-Cycle (TTC) mechanisms are the best-known strategy-proof mechanisms. However, in highly anonymous environments, the set of agents is not known ...

AIM Assessment of factors affecting the degree of illness acceptance in patients with epilepsy and determination of whether the diagnosis of epilepsy influenced the functioning of this population group.

This paper presents a multiple case research concerning success factors and issues of mobile field service implementations. Based on Eisenhardt’s explorative research design, five successful mobile technology implementations are compared and analysed. Important aspects of the implementation strategy and the used technology are examined and discussed. The results indicate that the success of mob...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to: empirically validate a modified unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model by adding an “e-learning motivation” construct in the South American context; try to determine the role of e-learning motivation in the use and adoption of e-learning systems and conversely the effect of technology on students’ e-learning motivation; and to...

This paper explores matching with both search and information frictions. Specifically, everyone observes only a noisy signal of the true type of any potential mate. In this context, matching decisions must incorporate not only information about a partner’s attribute conveyed by the noisy signal, but also—as in the winner’s curse in auction theory—information about a partner’s type contained in ...

Educational technology is increasingly used in multicultural contexts and across national cultures. Educational technology users with different national and professional backgrounds may, however, exhibit different attitudes towards technology. Previous research provides isolated evidence of the relationship between learning technology acceptance and culture, and so an overall picture is missing...

The effectiveness of different methods of leukoreduction in preventing alloimmune platelet refractoriness was evaluated in a canine model. Platelets from a random donor dog were administered for up to 8 weeks or until platelet refractoriness. Standard (STD; unmodified) platelets were accepted by 14% of recipients (n 7) compared with 14% for centrifuge leukoreduced (C-LR) platelets (n 21) and 31...
