Attitudes, defined

The Na members of a subpopulation in general will have different attitudes. Defining to be the number of members of 9a having the attitude i = ii, i2,. .., then ... 

We assume that the mixture contains Ni solvent molecules, each of which occupies a single site in the lattice we propose to fill. The system also contains N2 polymer molecules, each of which occupies n lattice sites. The polymer molecule is thus defined to occupy a volume n times larger than the solvent molecules. Strictly speaking, this is the definition of n in the derivation which follows. We shall adopt the attitude that the repeat units in the polymer are equal to solvent molecules in volume, however, so a polymer of degree of... 

Arrhenius, insofar as his profession could be defined at all, began as a physicist. He worked with a physics professor in Stockholm and presented a thesis on the electrical conductivities of aqueous solutions of salts. A recent biography (Crawford 1996) presents in detail the humiliating treatment of Arrhenius by his sceptical examiners in 1884, which nearly put an end to his scientific career he was not adjudged fit for a university career. He was not the last innovator to have trouble with examiners. Yet, a bare 19 years later, in 1903, he received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. It shows the unusual attitude of this founder of physical chemistry that he was distinctly surprised not to receive the Physics Prize, because he thought of himself as a physicist. 

The major finding of the study was that the manual blowdown philosophy, particularly with respect to gas situations, was not clearly defined. This was most apparent in the offshore attitudes and perceptions regarding the importance of blowdown as a safety system. No decision criteria specifying when blowdown should or should not be activated were provided for the support of control room staff. Blowdown was essentially left to the discretion of the workers. Consequently, the offshore interpretation of this vagueness and ambivalence amounted to a perceived low priority of blowdown. It was concluded that this percephon would probably lead to a significant delay in blowdown or possibly the omission of blowdown when it was actually required. 

You have now defined your business needs and gained an idea of the group of employees that requires attention, in order to address these. Equipped with this, you can move on to determining whether business needs can be translated into specific human resource requirements. This means attempting to translate them into competencies, their underlying components (knowledge, skills and attitudes), and experience. The following questions will help you to translate business needs into HR needs ... 

Secondly, define whaf f)rpe of affifude you would like fo see associated with each role (e.g. with that of a mentor openness towards the mentee being committed to the mentee and having his or her best interests at heart). Explain to trainees why the attitudes you expect them to hold are actually important. 

In the near future new drugs for the treatment of Alzheimer s disease are expected to be licensed, and it would be extremely valuable to be able to compare them in a clear and well-defined framework. In addition, if economic evaluation is to inform health and social care providers and policy-makers about the potential impact of new interventions in practice, estimation of the value for money of these new interventions requires consideration of (a) the perceived and objective risks and benefits of care (b) attitudes of people with... 

This positivist attitude is well-established in the biomedical world, and, to be sure, it was hard-won and hardly to be disparaged. However, at the same time, the price for objectifying disease has diluted, if not too often replaced medicine s ancient calling of care. I mean by care, attention to each facet of the individual, namely, treating the patient as a person, as a whole. A medicine that fails to address those elements of personhood that have no scientific basis - the social, the emotional, the moral - is ultimately fractional and therefore incomplete. Only by the physician committing to comprehensive care can the multifarious elements of being ill be addressed effectively. There is no one else to assume that responsibility, and we must invoke the ethics of responsibility to re-define the entire enterprise.5... 

An introduction to the method of in vitro evolution is given by Wilson and Stoszak (1999). The RNA lipase ribozyme, with about 140 nucleotides (but without the pyrimidine base cytosine), folded in a defined structure and was able to reach a reaction rate 105 times higher than in the uncatalysed reaction. This result certainly surprised those biogenesis researchers who were critical of the RNA world but we do not know whether the result changed their attitude to it ... 

Attitudes are defined as a disposition to respond favorably or unfavorably to an object, person, institution, or event. An attitude is (a) directed toward an object, person, institution, or event (b) has evaluative, positive or negative, elements (c) is based on cognitive sustainable agricultural attitudes and behaviors beliefs toward the attitude object (i.e., the balancing between positive and negative attributes of an object leads to an attitude) and (d) has consequences for behavior when confronted with the attitude object (Bergevoet et al. 2004 Karami and Mansoorabadi 2008). 

Thus, physical scientists have become increasingly aware of the need to define concepts in terms of operations instead of relying on inmitive feelings of a priori recognition. To avoid possible pitfalls in thermodynamic applications, it is desirable that all thermal and energy concepts likewise be approached with an operational attitude. The use of operational definitions is particularly important in a phenomenological science such as thermodynamics. 

The result of this combination of history, reahty, and attitude is a general regulatory dismissal of any presumption of system control. The default situation, the unproven norm expectation, is that a system is not adequately controlled. Until firm evidence of that control is provided, an automated laboratory is considered to be without appropriate controls, and both the management and the data of that laboratory are suspect. The GALPs define the controls that are appropriate, and the validation portion of those GALPs define the proof that is necessary to estabhsh comphance. 

Psychopharmacotherapy is the combined use of psychoactive medication and psychotherapy. Brent and Kolko (1998) define the latter as a treatment modality in which therapist and patient collaborate to ease functional psychopathological impairment through attention to (1) the therapeutic relationship, (2) the patient s behavior, thoughts, attitudes and affect (the working diagnosis), and (3) the social context and development (this is especially salient in the work of the child and adolescent psychiatrist). 

Before we discuss DMT and other psychoactive drugs, I want to remind readers that Marcel Proust also sought transcendence, a word that Karen Armstrong defines as the sense of reverence that arises in us when we contemplate the mystery of life, an attitude of awe that springs from that universal human experience of the numinous.a sense of... 

The reader might justifiably ask whether ritk aversim could not lead the fanner also to uke account of the difference between the utility levels in good and bad years. Because the notion of utility used here is defined in a way that already incorporates attitudes toward risk, this proposal would, however, involve double counting. 

A mathematical object is defined by a loose analogy to objects in the syntax of ordinary languages. The objects are those parts of a formula that are combined to form other objects, substituted for other objects, or mapped onto other objects, while the verbs are designators of how to combine, or which mapping to apply. Obviously, this classification depends on context, upon the usage of the formula, but also on the interpreters attitude One man s operations are another man s objects. 

Another area of humanistic outcomes that may be important to measure is patient satisfaction. Satisfaction is defined as the extent to which individuals needs and wants are met. This is finked with attitudes toward the medical care system, as well as expectations and perceptions regarding the quantity and quality of care received. 

We feel that it is worthwhile to attempt to view the current status of carbonate geochemistry in light of the fundamental problems that were largely defined 20 to 30 years ago. Although one frequently encounters the attitude that so much as been done in the field of carbonate mineral geochemistry relative to other mineral systems that all the major problems have been solved, it is our opinion that this assertion is far from the truth. On the contrary, many of the most important problems are largely unresolved in spite of this mammoth effort. 

For the reaction Ha + Ha- Hs + H,270 VBCI calculations were performed on all the points considered. Five attitudes of approach of H2 and Hi and three attitudes of retreat of and H were considered, while the geometries of H2, Hi, and H+ were fixed at their respective calculated equilibrium values. The steepest approach potential is found to be one in which the H+ axis bisects the Ha axis. The steepest retreat potential is one in which the H atom leaves the triangular H, ion on the same axis on which it entered. With this general reaction path defined, the calculations were repeated with the optimization of the H-H bond distance. A minimum was found at H-H and H-H + distances of 1.66 a.u. and 4.11 a.u., respectively, while the distance from the leading H atom of the H+ ion to the bisector of the Ha molecule is 1.44 a.u. The binding energy is found to be 3.6 kJ mol-1.
