TL;DR: The results suggest that users do have definable expectations concerning the location of these web objects, and these expectations are generally created early in the users' experience with the Web.
Abstract: This study examined where individuals expect specific web-related objects to be located on a typical web page, as well as compared any schematic differences between novice (less than one year of web experience) and experienced (more than three years of web experience) users for the location of these objects. The web objects examined were: grouping of links that internally connect web pages within the same website, grouping of links that lead to web pages that are external to a website, link to the homepage, internal search engine, and advertisement banner(s). The results suggest that users do have definable expectations concerning the location of these web objects, and these expectations are generally created early (less than one year) in the users' experience with the Web.

TL;DR: In this paper, two competing models concerning the temporal relations between maternal distress (mood and stress), maternal discipline, and child conduct problems were assessed using a within-subject, time series approach.
Abstract: Using a within-subject, time series approach, two competing models concerning the temporal relations between maternal distress (mood and stress), maternal discipline, and child conduct problems were assessed. Two measures of each of these constructs were collected at 10 assessment points, each separated by 3 to 4 days, in each of 10 single-parent families with a 4- to 5-year-old conduct problem child. After standardizing each of the measures over repeated assessment points in each family and aggregating the data across families, the models were tested using correlational and structural equation analyses. The fit of the data to the models supported the hypothesis that the association of maternal distress with child conduct problems is mediated by her disciplinary practices. On days when mothers reported more negative mood and stress, they were more likely to demonstrate poor disciplinary tactics. Temporal variation in discipline was, in turn, related to same-day variation in the frequency of child conduct problems. However, the model hypothesizing a direct relationship from maternal distress to child problems in addition to the indirect path through discipline was also supported, suggesting that maternal discipline is not the sole mediating variable.

TL;DR: The ligand 2,6-dimethylphenylisocyanide (CNx) forms six complexes of the formula [Re(CO)3(CNx)(L)]+, where L = 1,10-phenanthroline, and the lowest-energy absorption peaks of the complexes red-shift in the order 1 < 2 < 3 < 4 < 5 < 6.
Abstract: The ligand 2,6-dimethylphenylisocyanide (CNx) forms six complexes of the formula [Re(CO)3(CNx)(L)]+, where L = 1,10-phenanthroline (1), 5-chloro-1,10-phenanthroline (2), 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline (3), 5-methyl-1,10-phenanthroline (4), 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (5), and 1,10-phenanthrolinopyrrole (6). The lowest-energy absorption peaks of the complexes red-shift in the order 1 < 2 < 3 < 4 < 5 < 6. The time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and conductor-like polarizable continuum model (CPCM) computed singlet excited states in ethanol deviate by 1000 cm-1 or less from the experimental UV−vis peaks. The complexes undergo reversible reductions and irreversible oxidations. The electronic energy gap increases in the order 3 < 2 < 1 < 4 < 5 < 6, which is the order of increasing electron-donating power of the phen substituents. The reduction potentials linearly correlate with the B3LYP calculated LUMO energies for 1−6. The complexes emit at room temperature and at 77 K except 3, which emits on...

TL;DR: The IBFAT, MBA, and LATCH as tools to measure breastfeeding effectiveness are not sufficiently reliable at this stage in their development; thus, these tools cannot be valid for clinical use and need to be revised and retested.
Abstract: Objective This study examined validity and reliability of three clinical instruments that assess feedings at the breast. Design A descriptive correlational design testing the validity and interrater and test-retest reliability of instruments. Setting Hospital rooms and the participants' homes. Subjects Eleven breastfeeding women and their neonates were videotaped in 23 breastfeeding observations. Interventions The Infant Breastfeeding Assessment Tool (IBFAT), the Mother Baby Assessment Tool (MBA), and the LATCH assessment tool were scored by three nurse raters using videotapes of breastfeedings. Instruments were completed twice by each rater with a 6-month period between administration. Main Outcome Measures To test validity, test-retest, and interrater reliability, Spearman correlation coefficients among raters' breastfeeding assessment scores, among scores of each instrument, and between test and retest scores of raters. Percent of agreement among raters for each of the items in the three tools. Results Reliability coefficients for all three assessment tools are below acceptable levels for clinical decisions. Spearman rank coefficients of pairwise interrater correlations were .57, .27, and .69 for the IBFAT: .66, .64, and .33 for the MBA; and .11, .46, and .48 for the LATCH assessment tool. Spearman rank coefficients among instrument scores were .69, .78, and .68. Test-retest correlations were .88, .78, and .64. Percent of agreement among raters for each of the items in the three tools was highly variable, ranging from 37.0 to 97.2. Conclusion The IBFAT, MBA, and LATCH as tools to measure breastfeeding effectiveness are not sufficiently reliable at this stage in their development; thus, these tools cannot be valid for clinical use. These tools need to be revised and retested before use in clinical practice to identify breastfeeding mother-infant pairs who need intervention.
