04 Jan 2011TL;DR: It is suggested that age will be the only significant moderator, and gender, voluntariness and experience will not play significant moderating roles, and the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) is adapted to the context of EMR system adoption and use by doctors.
Abstract: Electronic medical record (EMR) systems can deliver many benefits to healthcare organizations and the patients they serve. However, one of the biggest stumbling blocks in garnering these benefits is the limited adoption and use by doctors. We employ the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) as the theoretical foundation and adapt the theory to the context of EMR system adoption and use by doctors. Specifically, we suggest that age will be the only significant moderator, and gender, voluntariness and experience will not play significant moderating roles. We tested our model in a longitudinal study over a 7-month period in a hospital implementing a new EMR system. We collected 3 waves of survey data from 141 doctors and used system logs to measure use. While the original UTAUT only predicted about 20% of the variance in intention, the modified UTAUT predicted 44%. Both models were comparable in their prediction of use. In addition to contributing to healthcare IT and UTAUT research, we hope this work will serve as a foundation for future work that integrates UTAUT with other theoretical perspectives.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have identified 17 members of the rice MAPK gene (OsMPK) family through an in-silico search of rice genome databases, and they proposed that MAPKs can be divided into six groups.
Abstract: Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades play a crucial role in plant growth and development as well as biotic and abiotic stress responses. In Arabidopsis, 20 MAPKs have been identified and divided into four major groups. In rice, a monocot model and economically important cereal crop, only five MAPKs were characterized, including three related to the host defense response. In this study, we have identified 17 members of the rice MAPK gene (OsMPK) family through an in silico search of rice genome databases. Based on the phylogenetic analysis and pairwise comparison of Arabidopsis and rice MAPKs, we propose that MAPKs can be divided into six groups. Interestingly, the rice genome contains many more MAPKs with the TDY phosphorylation site (11 members) than with the TEY motif (six members). In contrast, the Arabidopsis genome contains more MAPKs with the TEY motif (12 members) than with the TDY motif (eight members). Upon inoculation with the blast fungus (Magnaporthe grisea), nine of 17 OsMPK genes were found to be induced at the mRNA level during either early, late, or both stages of infection. Four of the M. grisea-induced OsMPK genes were associated with host-cell death in the lesion-mimic rice mutant, and eight of them were differentially induced in response to defense signal molecules such as jasmonic acid, salicylic acid, abscisic acid, and ethylene. The genome-wide expression analysis suggests that about half of the rice MAPK genes are associated with pathogen infection and host defense response.

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified shifting bottleneck heuristic is developed for minimizing the total weighted tardiness in a semiconductor wafer fabrication facility, which is characterized by re-entrant or re-circulating product flow through a number of different tool groups (one or more machines operating in parallel).
Abstract: Increases in the demand for integrated circuits have highlighted the importance of meeting customer quality and on-time delivery expectations in the semiconductor industry A modified shifting bottleneck heuristic is developed for minimizing the total weighted tardiness in a semiconductor wafer fabrication facility This ‘complex’ job shop is characterized by re-entrant or re-circulating product flow through a number of different tool groups (one or more machines operating in parallel) These tool groups typically contain batching machines, as well as machines that are subject to sequence-dependent setups The disjunctive graph of the complex job shop is presented, along with a description of the proposed heuristic Preliminary results indicate the heuristic's potential for promoting on-time deliveries by semiconductor manufacturers for their customers' orders Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd

TL;DR: The authors found that Trait positive affectivity did not attenuate relationships between work stressors and either subjective or objective stress outcomes, and that NA did not measure a factor in common with measures of subjective strain.
Abstract: Trait negative affectivity (NA) has been asserted to be a factor that spuriously inflates relationships between self-reported stressors and self-reported strain outcomes. We tested this hypothesis with conventional work stress instrument responses and physiological assessments obtained from 311 fire and police department employees. Confirmatory factor analyses indicated that NA did not measure a factor in common with measures of subjective strain. Latent-variable structural equations analyses, however, found that estimating the effects of NA on strain significantly attenuated the effects of work stressors. NA had no correlation with physiological stress outcomes. Trait positive affectivity did not attenuate relationships between work stressors and either subjective or objective stress outcomes. Implications for work stress research methodology and recommendations are discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assessed how sexual media use by one or both members of a romantic dyad relates to relationship and sexual satisfaction, and found that a higher frequency of men's sexual media usage related to negative satisfaction in men, while a high frequency of women's use related to positive satisfaction in male partners.
Abstract: This study assessed how sexual media use by one or both members of a romantic dyad relates to relationship and sexual satisfaction. A total of 217 heterosexual couples completed an Internet survey that assessed sexual media use, relationship and sexual satisfaction, and demographic variables. Results revealed that a higher frequency of men’s sexual media use related to negative satisfaction in men, while a higher frequency of women’s sexual media use related to positive satisfaction in male partners. Reasons for sexual media use differed by gender: Men reported primarily using sexual media for masturbation, while women reported primarily using sexual media as part of lovemaking with their partners. Shared sexual media use was associated with higher relational satisfaction compared to solitary sexual media use.
