In this study, we explore the phenomenon of mobile technostress: stress experienced by users of mobile information and communication technologies. We examine the impacts of mobile technostress on individuals’ job satisfaction. Based on the Transaction Based Model of stress and the existing literature on technostress, a conceptual model was proposed to understand this phenomenon. Two sources of ...

Der Verfasser hat das vom Deutschen Bundestag von Juni 2001 bis Oktober 2002 durchgeführte Pilotprojekt im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojektes als Moderator betreut. Als zentraler Erfolgsfaktor hat sich in diesem Projekt neben dem Registrierungskonzept, die Rolle des Moderators sowie die technische Bedienung die Orientierung an den Rahmenbedingungen der Abgeordneten herausgestellt.

today, with emphasis on the mechanical heart and heart transplantation from one human to another andone species to another, a knowledge of the anatomy of the bird’s heart could contribute to theseaccomplishments. eight male adult ostriches were used to study the heart macroscopically. this studyrevealed that the ostrich heart has some different features from the other birds. in the ostrich, fib...

this study focuses on the level of suffering from social problems and tests the moderator role of community size in relation with suffering from social problems. our study was conducted in gharbia governorate, egypt. two contrasting villages were chosen as the highest and lowest on human development index (hdi). a purposive sample of inhabitants in the age category 18-40 years was chosen. sampl...

Human-Robot peer-based teams are evolving from a far-off possibility into a tangible reality. Human Performance Moderator Functions can be used to predict human behavior by incorporating the effects of internal and external influences, such as fatigue and workload. The applicability of human performance moderator functions to human-robot teams is not proven; however, the presented research demo...

Purpose – The paper examines what are the effects of the different types of cross-cultural training (CCT) on expatriates’ adjustment and whether prior international experience (IE) and cultural distance (CD) have a moderator effect on the effectiveness of CCT. Design/methodology/approach – In a quantitative approach the paper examines the effect of four different types of CCT on the three facet...

Calculation of the statistical power of statistical tests is important in planning and interpreting the results of research studies, including meta-analyses. It is particularly important in moderator analyses in meta-analysis, which are often used as sensitivity analyses to rule out moderator effects but also may have low statistical power. This article describes how to compute statistical powe...

Five studies tested whether need for closure (NFC) moderates the relation between intergroup contact and prejudice toward immigrants. The results consistently showed that intergroup contact was more strongly associated with reduced levels of prejudice among people high in NFC compared to people low in NFC. Studies 1 (N = 138 students) and 2 (N = 294 adults) demonstrated this moderator effect on...

The Target/Moderator/Reflector (TMR) system at the Low Energy Neutron Source has a flexible design in order to accommodate research into the performance of neutron moderators in general and small-scale accelerator-driven neutron sources in particular. Since producing its first cold neutron beam in April of 2005, the LENS TMR has undergone a number of design changes, and has been used to investi...
