Previous research suggests that musicians may be particularly susceptible to noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). To date, however, very few studies examined noise exposure acquired by university vocalists as they practice in...
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software packages have been widely implemented in the developed world since they first appeared on the market in the late 1970s. In the developing world, however, the lack of the human and...
In this study we investigate whether the phonetic carry-over effects (or gestural drift) reported in the literature as occurring in the speech of bilinguals after long-term phonological priming (i.e., several months), also occur...
Researchers worldwide require valuable data to confirm and validate their models or theories. Obtaining such data, especially concerning people's behaviour, is very difficult. Although ICT technologies can facilitate the data...
The development of machine learning algorithms together with the availability of computational tools nowadays have given an increase in the application of artificial intelligence methodologies in different fields. However, the...
Medical Education websites are an important tool in communication, promotion and organization of a medical education program. These websites can also be used to deliver curriculum and manage assessment tools for learners. The...
In Ecstasy of Reason, Jean-François Courtine states that F.W.J. Schelling’s late, “positive philosophy” is “not a sublime ground of being as a whole, but the contrary itself of a ground, the attempt of a phenomenology of … the...

Healthcare systems worldwide have been facing a value crisis, with expenditure increasing at unsustainable rates and, in many cases, exceeding the real growth of GDP. Furthermore, this substantial increase in spending has not...
Budget constrained sponsored search advertisers must decide how to allocate their advertisement budget across ad campaigns and individual keywords. In this paper, a simulation model that integrates the complex issues involved in...
In this paper, an exploratory mixed-method study is presented examining the video-related behavior of participants of a massive open online course (MOOC; N=1.238). Firstly, detailed log-file analysis of six videos has been...
Software applications in educational technology have been a strong driving force for the success of online learning at all levels. These applications are created for various purposes and are used by a range of experts. The...
This study aims to investigate the role of culture at an individual level in the context of m-payment adoption. Specifically, it examines the effect of uncertainty avoidance and collectivism based on the Hofstede cultural...
Little consideration has been given to how the provision of palliative and end-of-life care in care homes was affected by COVID-19. The aims of this study were to: (i) investigate the response of UK care...
BACKGROUND AIMS: In patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), the serum liver biochemistry measured during treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid-the UDCA response-accurately predicts long-term outcome. Molecular...
With the expansion of cyber-physical systems (CPSs) across critical and regulated industries, systems must be continuously updated to remain resilient. At the same time, they should be extremely secure and safe to operate and...
