This paper analyses the vulnerability of a Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) equipped distribution centre (DC) of a supply chain against the Statistical Disclosure Attack (SDA). We built a simulation model to assess the success probabilities of the attack against differently configured distribution centres and attackers. The success probability of an SDA against a DC varies, depending on th...

The present experiment tested several predictions derived from the context-sensitivity vulnerability model of panic. Participants (N=79) scoring either high or low in anxiety sensitivity (AS) and with no history of unexpected panic were randomly assigned to one of two instructional sets: expected arousal (EA) or expected relaxation (ER). All participants were administered inhalation of room air...

Although past research indicates that women's higher levels of psychological distress can be accounted for by their greater exposure and vulnerability to role-related stress, the social psychological factors contributing to female vulnerability have not been fully identified. This paper applies identity theory to the phenomenon of gender differences in distress among parents. From an identity p...

Background and objective: Floods are among the most dangerous natural disasters that causes loss of life and property every year. The destructive effects of floods are more documentedو due to climate change and increasing economic and social development. Social and infrastructural vulnerabilities have also increased due to human settlement adjacent to river floodplains. Therefore, to prevent mo...

The extinction of a species is inevitably preceded by the extirpation of a series of local populations. Ecological theory predicts that vulnerability to extirpation varies between populations and is ultimately linked to environmental heterogeneity. If populations of a species are present in multiple regions separated by abrupt changes in environmental conditions (e.g., biomes), spatial variatio...

There are alternative definitions of vulnerability to poverty. Most researchers prefer to define vulnerability as the probability of a household or individual falling into poverty in the future. Based on this definition and using household survey panel data from rural China, this paper attempt to assess the extent to which we can measure vulnerability to poverty. The assessment is based on comp...
