conclusions results of the current study confirmed the effect of supportive nursing care on increasing the level of satisfaction in ect receiving patients, recommending the use of this therapeutic method. results the results showed similarities in socio-personal characteristics of both groups. however, there was a significant difference (p < 0.001) between the means of satisfaction in the group...

Despite lower incomes, the self-employed consistently report higher satisfaction with their jobs. But are self-employed individuals also happier, more satisfied with their lives as a whole? High job satisfaction might cause them to neglect other important domains of life, such that the fulfilling job crowds out other pleasures, leaving the individual on the whole not happier than others. Moreov...

– We investigate the computationally hard problem whether a random graph of finite average vertex degree has an extensively large q-regular subgraph, i.e., a subgraph with all vertices having degree equal to q. We reformulate this problem as a constraint-satisfaction problem, and solve it using the cavity method of statistical physics at zero temperature. For q = 3, we find that the first large...

Patient satisfaction with menu items enhances intake and adequate intake of nutrients contained within hospital menus is required for recovery. A survey of foodservice leaders in Ontario hospitals determined the frequency and methods used to assess patient satisfaction with, and the nutritional composition of, menus. From this cross sectional study emerged descriptive themes, complemented by qu...

The branch of coding theory that is based on formal languages has produced several methods for defining code properties, including word relations, dependence systems, implicational conditions, trajectories, and language inequations. Of those, the latter three can be viewed as formal methods in the sense that a certain formal expression can be used to denote a code property. Here we present a fo...

as a source of motivation for efl teachers in their work environment, their satisfaction with their manager’s behavior comprises the basis of the present study. through triangulation and employment of two types of interview, a regular one and an innovative adaptive type, we elicited iranian efl teachers’ perception of their managers’ management skills in the private sector. the two data were th...

PURPOSE To evaluate, in healthy women in the second trimester of pregnancy, a possible association between sexual function and quality of life, and between sexual function and sexual satisfaction. METHODS This cross-sectional study involved 51 pregnant women managed at a low-risk antenatal care clinic. Sexual function was evaluated through the Sexual Quotient - Female Version (QS-F) questionn...

In order to define priorities for improvement of the Occupational Hygiene Service, Institute for Occupational Health, Tel Aviv University, consumer satisfaction was evaluated by postal questionnaire. The questionnaire covered items on service accessibility and quality, including staff courtesy and respect for the consumer, cost, satisfaction with the service in general over time, and satisfacti...

Classical constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) are commonly defined on finite domains. In real life, constrained variables can evolve over time. A variable can actually take an infinite sequence of values over discrete time points. In this paper, we propose constraint programming on infinite data streams, which provides a natural way to model constrained time-varying problems. In our framewo...
