integration states are more common than others (Childerhouse and Towill, 2011). In addition, Childerhouse and Towill would further test all results against Frohlich and Westbrook 's original concept, of the ‘arcs of integration’ as a benchmark to their research. Furthering our review, Leuschner, Rogers, & Charvet (2013) expand on Frohlich and Westbrook’s definition of supply chain integration through the introduction of supply chain collaboration and supply chain coordination. The primary purpose for

activity.  Empirical research designed to address ethical issues in medicine and biomedical research has grown enormously over the past 15 years. However, the value of ethics-related empirical research, which depends on the ethical significance of research questions and study results, has not received the careful, critical attention it deserves. The article by Joffe and Weeks (1) in this issue of the Journal highlights some of the challenges in the state-of-the-art of empirical research on ethical

1. Discuss the need for scientific research in the field of psychology. How does psychological research obtain and use empirical evidence? The need for scientific research in the field of psychology per module 2.1 (n.d), helps us to understand behavior through physiological and cognitive processes that create the behavior (para. 3). Therefore, a better understanding of ourselves and of the world around us is gained. With empirical evidence gained through research there is an objective and supported

shown some encouraging results, since some of the research done have report improvement in student engagement in forums, projects, and other learning activities (Anderson et al. 2014; Caton and Greenhill 2013; Akpolat and Slany 2014). Additionally, some studies have shown increase in attendance, participation, and material downloads (Barata et al. 2013; Goehle 2013). Dicheva et al (2015) presented a literature review of the state of gamification research in education based on a systematic mapping study

Nevertheless, many authors offer a candid evaluation of the issue in terms of discussing empirical data although few of them create a relationship between organizational leadership and emotional intelligence. By considering the work of Dabke (2014) for instance, the author is

Two empirical research studies were compared in the comparison matrix. The articles were located in the Grand Canyon University library. ” Article one written by Baum and Locke (2004) is entitled:” The Relationship of Entrepreneurial Traits, Skill, and Motivation to Subsequent Venture Growth.” Article two written by Connelly, et al. (2000), is entitled: “Exploring the Relationship of Leadership Skills and Knowledge to Leader Performance.” Article one contributes to the dread of personal characteristic

Evaluation of Social Identity Theory making reference to empirical research studies What is the Social Identity Theory? Social identity theory is the idea that we, as humans, have the need to categorize ourselves into in-groups ‘us’ and out-groups ‘them’ in order to give ourselves a positive social identity to protect and enhance our self-esteem. Empirical research done to support this theory Tajfel H. (1970) One of the most well known studies done to support social identity theory

the participants), the likelihood of observing a positive effect of incentives on performance decrease. Bailey and Fessler (2011) also find that monetary incentives are more effective when the task is less complex. On the other hand in a review of empirical studies on financial incentives and performance Jenkins et al. (1999) find that financial incentives are generally related to output quantity but not to quality. Furthermore, they find task type is independent of the relation between financial incentives

population. Numerous scholars have empirically examined that individual subjective well-being may be considerably affected by one’s own physical, social and economic conditions (e.g., income, education, employment status, and health). However, empirical research on the effects of geographic and living environments on the subjective well-being has been relatively scarce. As a result, although a variety of programs and public policies have been implemented in both Western and Asian countries, this issue

growing number of quantitative empirical studies have attempted to investigate the link between natural resources and conflict, but researchers are still unable to make a definitive call on whether natural resources necessarily cause conflict in broad terms. In this paper, I will attempt to show that the theory of the “resource curse” lacks persuasive power due to: 1) a theoretical ambiguity on the true impact of natural resources on conflict and, 2) a lack of strong empirical support for the “resource
