TL;DR: It is revealed that only the utilitarian influence has resulted in statistically significant difference between China and US mobile phone buyers, and another two reference group influences, informational and value-expressive, have relative insignificant impacts.
Abstract: This paper describes a comparative study investigating the influence of different reference group on consumer purchasing behaviour between the mobile phone users of USA and China. This study reveals that among the three reference group influence examined, only the utilitarian influence has resulted in statistically significant difference between China and US mobile phone buyers, and another two reference group influences, informational and value-expressive, have relative insignificant impacts. Based on the results of this study, managerial insights and practical implications for marketing strategies in the mobile phone market are recommended accordingly.

TL;DR: In this paper, self-report surveys of probation personnel in a southern state considered the relationship of a number of demographic variables with employee perceptions of participation in workplace decision making, job satisfaction, and organizational and physical stress levels.
Abstract: Stress can be costly not only to individuals but also to organizations Participatory management has been recommended as a means for reducing probation officer stress This article via self-report surveys of probation personnel in a southern state considers the relationship of a number of demographic variables with employee perceptions of participation in workplace decision making, job satisfaction, and organizational and physical stress levels Construction of a structural model revealed that employee perceptions of participation in workplace decision making was an important variable in relation to job satisfaction and its influence on both reported organizational and physical symptoms of stress The results lend further credence to the use and development of participatory management schemas within probation organizations

TL;DR: This qualitative, descriptive study was to describe students' self-perceptions of their learning experiences using high-fidelity simulation in teaching concepts relative to obstetrics to enhance clinical learning.
Abstract: In this era of expanding technology, amidst a shortage of nursing faculty and clinical sites, there has been increasing emphasis on the use of simulation to enhance clinical learning. The purpose of this qualitative, descriptive study was to describe students' self-perceptions of their learning experiences using high-fidelity simulation in teaching concepts relative to obstetrics. A sample of 60 second-year associate of science in nursing (ASN) students attended simulation experiences in obstetrics in addition to required clinical time in a hospital. At the end of each simulated learning experience, students audiotaped their reflections of the experience. Content analysis was done to identify themes in the students' perceptions relative to their learning. Three themes were identified from the analysis: the nonthreatening environment, enhancement of learning, and feeling prepared for practice.

TL;DR: Using the peak procedure, rats with aspiration lesions to the medial prefrontal cortex (PFC) or the hippocampus were tested for the acquisition of timing behavior and temporal memory and concluded that neither the medial PFC nor the hippocampus is necessary for the memory of temporal events.
Abstract: Using the peak procedure, rats with aspiration lesions to the medial prefrontal cortex (PFC) or the hippocampus were tested for the acquisition of timing behavior and temporal memory. After surgery, rats were 1st trained to discriminate a 40-s interval and then tested for temporal memory with gap trials. Results indicated that lesions to the medial PFC disrupted the acquisition of timing behavior. Medial PFC animals needed significantly more trials to reach criterion, and their temporal discrimination function was less uniform and steep, indicating a general deficit in timing ability. In hippocampal rats, the ability to estimate the duration of the discriminative stimulus was unaffected by the lesion. It was concluded that the hippocampus is not necessary for the acquisition of timing behavior in this task. Gap trials failed to produce a deficit in the memory for temporal events for either lesion. Thus, it was further concluded that neither the medial PFC nor the hippocampus is necessary for the memory of temporal events.
