PURPOSE The aims of this study were to assess the factor structure, reliability, and validity of an existing Resident Satisfaction Questionnaire (RSQ) and to develop a short-form RSQ for regular use in residential aged care settings. DESIGN AND METHODS A cross-sectional survey design was adopted to collect the required information, with facilities being selected using stratified random sampli...

INTRODUCTION Subsidisation of the levonorgestrel-releasing Jadelle® contraceptive implant in 2010 resulted in a rapid uptake. Clinicians had little prior experience of client satisfaction, side effect profile, and removal rate of this contraceptive method. AIM To obtain information on satisfaction, bleeding patterns, continuation rates and reasons for removal for New Zealand women during their ...

BACKGROUND Life satisfaction among residents of institutions is becoming an important issue in a rapidly aging population. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the links between life satisfaction and health-related behaviors amongst functionally independent elderly people who prefer institutional living in Istanbul, Turkey. METHODS The socio-demographic characteristics, he...

Context: The institutional setting for the study was the primary physician service in Norway, where there is a regular general practitioner scheme. Each inhabitant has a statutory right to be registered with a regular general practitioner. There are large differences between physicians in service production. Objective: We studied whether difference in services production between physicians has ...

The application of model-checking tools to complex systems involves a nontrivial step of modelling the system by a finite-state model and a translation of the desired properties into a formal specification. While a positive answer of the model checker guarantees that the model satisfies the specification, correctness of the modelling is not checked. Vacuity detection is a successful approach fo...

objective: satisfaction and postoperative care of women who undergo cesarean section is an important aspect and demand due attention. hunger and thirst are frequently encountered after cesarean delivery. these increase distressing symptom and unsatisfaction. the aim of this paper was to detect the effect of early post cesarean feeding on mothers' satisfaction. materials and methods: this study ...

Several content-based queries in spatial databases and geographic information systems (GISs) can be modelled and processed as constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). Regular CSP algorithms, however, work for main memory retrieval without utilizing indices to prune the search space. This paper shows how systematic and local search techniques can take advantage of the hierarchical decomposition ...

‎in this paper some properties of weak regular injectivity for $s$-posets‎, ‎where $s$ is a pomonoid‎, ‎are studied‎. ‎the behaviour‎ ‎of different kinds of weak regular injectivity with products‎, ‎coproducts and direct sums is considered‎. ‎also‎, ‎some‎ ‎characterizations of pomonoids over which all $s$-posets are of‎ ‎some kind of weakly regular injective are obtained‎. ‎further‎, ‎we‎ ‎giv...
