In order to create an effective and profitable organization, one must select the right employees into the right positions. While there are many methods used to select employees (e.g. assessment centers, personality ...
Link Quality Characterization in IEEE 802.11s Wireless Mesh Networks
(2010-12-09)
HWMP (Hybrid Wireless Mesh Protocol) has been set as the default routing protocol for the
ongoing IEEE 802.11s WMN (Wireless Mesh Network) standard. Unlike most multi-hop routing protocols, which operate at the network ...
Linkages Between Identity Formation, Romantic Relationship Attachment, and Life Role Salience Among Young Adult Women
(2011-04-06)
Several important developmental processes occur in the young adulthood period. Young adults must form their identities, determine trajectories regarding careers, marriage, and parenthood (as well as the importance of these ...
Linking Observed Seismicity to Crustal Structure in the New Madrid Seismic Zone Using Gravity and Magnetic Modeling
(2019-07-23)
The New Madrid Seismic Zone in the Central United States is a highly active seismic zone. Research has focused on the subsurface structure and history of development in order to gain better insight into the cause of these ...
Linking Peer Victimization with Sleep in Early Adolescence
(2015-07-23)
The present study examined the association between peer victimization and sleep quality in early adolescence. Negative emotional arousal in the context of peer stress was examined as a possible mediator, and both sex and ...
Linking Rural Vendors with Urban Public Markets: Institutional Constraints and Possibilities in the Evolution of Urban Food Systems
(2007-05-15)
Public Markets are a new food retailing phenomena located in major urban centers throughout North America, presenting a means for more directly linking urban consumers and rural food producers. However, the new vision of ...
Linking seed and leaf litter traits to post-fire recovery and forest flammability in southeastern U.S. forests
(2023-07-27)
Decades of fire exclusion affected upland forests of the southeastern United States in many ways, including reductions in successful natural regeneration of fire-dependent species and shifts in forest flammability. To ...
Linking Social Anxiety and Autonomic Responses to Social Stress in Preadolescence
(2016-07-20)
A substantial body of theoretical literature suggests that social anxiety may be related to abnormal or inflexible autonomic nervous system activity. In recent years, this notion has been corroborated by several empirical ...
Links between Body Image and Internalizing Behaviors Among College-Age Youth: Similarities or Differences by Sex, Level of Acculturation, and Racial/ethnic groups and Who’s “Doing” What?: An Investigation of Regional Trends in Sexual Activity and Risky Sexual Behaviors Among College-Age Youth
(2011-12-01)
The current studies were conducted based on data from the Multi-Site University Study of Identity and Culture (MUSIC) (Schwartz et al., 2010), a collaborative effort that began in 2006 and now has collected data on three ...
