A descriptive study of 100 nursing personnel at a large Magnet hospital in Southwest Florida was conducted to assess their needs, preferences, and perceptions associated with Electronic Health Record (EHR) documentation methods. Nurses' attitudes about the use of EHRs and their perceived effects on patient care were assessed. The five-item, Likert-type attitude scale explained 54% of the varian...

PW-Sat2 satellite is a 2kg CubeSat that is being developed by the students from Warsaw University of Technology. The project is a part of activity of the Students’ Space Association from Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering. The satellite will be launched in 2016 in Low Earth Orbit to test the deorbitation method using deployed sail in the end of the mission. The CubeSat will have depl...

Sliding mode control algorithms with classical and modified discontinuous reaching laws for purely magnetic attitude control of small satellites are proposed and compared with each other in this work. They are designed by following the steps characteristic to the variable structure control method and the magnetic attitude control problem. The asymptotical stability of the control laws is proven...

organic farming as an approach to sustainable agriculture tries to decrease environmental problems and possible health hazards caused by the residues from pesticides. since the agricultural professionals are responsible to inform the farmers and the public by education and extension efforts, it is necessary to understand their attitudes. the main purpose of this research was to investigate fact...

The transmission of social attitudes has been investigated as a possible model of cultural inheritance in a sample of 3810 twin pairs from the Australian National Health and Medical Research Twin Registry. Six social attitude factors were identified and univariate genetic models fitted to scores on each factor. A joint multivariate genetic analysis of the six attitude factors, church attendance...

The reasons for these differences remain poorly understood. This study explored whether individual cognitions, self-regulation and environmental-level factors may explain educational differences in vegetable consumption...
