Handbook of Research Methods for Studying Daily Life
Author: Matthias R. MehlPublisher: Guilford Publications
ISBN: 1462513050
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 705
Book Description
Bringing together leading authorities, this unique handbook reviews the breadth of current approaches for studying how people think, feel, and behave in everyday environments, rather than in the laboratory. The volume thoroughly describes experience sampling methods, diary methods, physiological measures, and other self-report and non-self-report tools that allow for repeated, real-time measurement in natural settings. Practical guidance is provided to help the reader design a high-quality study, select and implement appropriate methods, and analyze the resulting data using cutting-edge statistical techniques. Applications across a wide range of psychological subfields and research areas are discussed in detail.
Philosophy of Emotion
Author: Aaron Ben Ze'evPublisher:
ISBN: 9781138906648
Category : Emotions
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Despite their apparent familiarity, emotions are an extremely subtle and complex topic, historically neglected of study by philosophers and scientists. In recent decades, however, research in the emotions has grown considerably. This new four volume collection is a broad philosophical examination of basic concepts and essential issues but also takes an interdisciplinary approach that combines philosophical analysis with other types of scientific research (such as psychology, anthropology, history, sociology, and brain sciences).
Beyond the HIPAA Privacy Rule
Author: Institute of MedicinePublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309124999
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
In the realm of health care, privacy protections are needed to preserve patients' dignity and prevent possible harms. Ten years ago, to address these concerns as well as set guidelines for ethical health research, Congress called for a set of federal standards now known as the HIPAA Privacy Rule. In its 2009 report, Beyond the HIPAA Privacy Rule: Enhancing Privacy, Improving Health Through Research, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Health Research and the Privacy of Health Information concludes that the HIPAA Privacy Rule does not protect privacy as well as it should, and that it impedes important health research.
Frontiers of Materials Research
Author: National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and MedicinePublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309483875
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Modern materials science builds on knowledge from physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, computer and data science, and engineering sciences to enable us to understand, control, and expand the material world. Although it is anchored in inquiry-based fundamental science, materials research is strongly focused on discovering and producing reliable and economically viable materials, from super alloys to polymer composites, that are used in a vast array of products essential to today's societies and economies. Frontiers of Materials Research: A Decadal Survey is aimed at documenting the status and promising future directions of materials research in the United States in the context of similar efforts worldwide. This third decadal survey in materials research reviews the progress and achievements in materials research and changes in the materials research landscape over the last decade; research opportunities for investment for the period 2020-2030; impacts that materials research has had and is expected to have on emerging technologies, national needs, and science; and challenges the enterprise may face over the next decade.
Symmetry And Simplicity In Physics - A Symposium On The Occasion Of Sergio Fubini's 65 Birthday
Author: Wanda Maria AlbericoPublisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 981455006X
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
By collecting contributions of the many scientists who have interacted with Sergio Fubini and shared his friendship and enthusiasm for unraveling the ultimate mysteries of matter, this book offers a panorama of recent and interesting achievements in experimental and theoretical particle physics, gauge and string theories and the like. It also contains some reports about the historical development of this branch of activity, with its political, financial and cultural implications for the present and future. The common feature of the contributions is the search for symmetry and simplicity in complex phenomena. The book represents a struggle toward the future without forgetting the good and the bad of the past.
