Die doelwitte van hierdie studie was om vroulike verbruikers se persepsies en emosies aangaande die klere-verkoopsassistent in die klerekleinhandel te bepaal. Die invloed van die bystand en diensverskaffing van die klere-verkoopsassistent op die verbruiker se aankoopbesluit is ook bepaal. ʼn Kwalitatiewe navorsingsstrategie is gevolg. Semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude is gebruik vir data-insameli...

hat will the future of clinical engineering look like? The question is an important one for clinical engineers to consider because the answer determines how they should be preparing now for that future. What level of education and what skill sets should be acquired? Anticipating the future enables us to effectively prepare ... to be proactive rather than reactive as changes take place in our in...

A perennial complaint in biogerontology, and one whose legitimacy I would be the last to dispute, is that public funding for ageing research is far lower than it should be. Such funding has roughly kept pace with biomedical research spending as a whole, but much more is warranted because postponement of ageing would have a far greater impact on public health and healthcare spending than postpon...

1. We must establish a detailed method of describing the states of a system. This means that we must have a detailed way of describing the precise microstates in which a system can be found (or, equivalently, the precise outcome of a single experiment such as the toss of a die), as well as a precise way to describe the various macrostates of a system. 2. We must describe the system in terms of ...

We examine the impact of increased abortion availability on the average living standards of children through a selection effect. Would the marginal child who was not born have grown up in different circumstances than the average child? We use variation in the timing of abortion legalization across states to answer this question. Cohorts born after legalized abortion experienced a significant re...

Um Wörter und Wortformen innerhalb von Texten auffindbar zu machen, waren im vordigitalen Zeitalter Glossare unerlässlich. Heute lassen sich ihre Daten automatisiert mit den zugehörigen Texten zusammenführen, um die Texte so mit weiteren Informationen anzureichern. Für die dazu notwendige Digitalisierung der Glossare ist angesichts des historischen Druckbildes und der oft nicht eindeutigen Info...

Trapped by faculty apathy and library uncertainty, institutional repositories face a crossroads: adapt or die. The “build it and they will come” proposition has been decisively proven wrong. Citation advantages and preservation have not attracted faculty participants, though current-generation software and services offer faculty little else. Academic librarianship has not supported repositories...

Die skrywer glo dat opnames onder hoërskoolleerlinge waardevoUe demografiese inligting kan voorsien. Die uitvoerbaarheid hiervan is in die veld getoets. In die bespreking van die bevindings stel die skrywer ’n stelsel vir die registrasie van geboortes en sterftes in nasionale state voor waarin die gemeenskapsverpleegkundige en piaaslikc kliniek gebruik word. Watter wyse van registrasie ook op b...

important activities of die-casting die design. In normal practice, determine therunner and gating designparameters. These parameters are simulations on a computer and dry runs on adie-casting machine These iterative activities increase the manufacturing lead time and makes A system which could reduce the iterations and make the presentsa computer-aided system for runner and gating system gener...

A generalized die is a list (x1; :::; xn) of integers. For integers n 1, a b and s let D(n; a; b; s) be the set of all dice with a x1 ::: xn b and P xi = s. Two dice X and Y are tied if the number of pairs (i; j) with xi < yj equals the number of pairs (i; j) with xi > yj . We prove the following: with one exception (unique up to isomorphism), if X 6= Y 2 D(n; a; b; s) are tied dice neither of ...
