    Usability testing for web redesign: a UCLA case study (2005)
    Bingley : Emerald
    OCLC systems & services 21 (2005), S. 226-234

    Topics: Information Science and Librarianship
    Notes: Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to describe the processes the UCLA Library Website Redesign Team used to develop a new library website responsive to the needs of the broad population of UCLA Library users. Design/methodology/approach - Using a combination of structured analyses of the previous library website, user surveys, a card sort protocol and a think-aloud protocol, the Website Redesign Team procured sufficient information to meet its redesign goals: established clear site organization and navigation, utilized user-centered nomenclature, ensured easy access from the library homepage to relevant information, developed a unified institutional visual identity throughout the site, and enabled a content management system. Findings - Standard usability methods such as surveys and the card sort and think-aloud protocols are essential tools for evaluating and redesigning complex multi-layered websites. Since the redesign process is not finite, these tools contribute to keeping a website current and responsive to the needs of its users. Originality/value - This case study provides an example that the Redesign Team hope will empower readers with tools and knowledge that they can use to perform similar tasks in their own environment.

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Sexual, racial and other forms of harassment may create a devastating impact on individuals affected and can lead to severe loss of morale and efficiency. Examines issues surrounding this sensitive area which relate to legal definition, organisational policies in general and the hospitality industry specifically. Provides evidence of the current views on sexual harassment of hospitality industry personnel directors. Examines issues of hospitality service staff, encouraged to sell "sexuality" or "flirt" as a job requirement.

    Approaches by hotels to the use of the Internet as a relationship marketing tool (1999)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Journal of marketing practice 5 (1999), S. 21-38 
    Details
    ISSN: 1355-2538
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Offers a study of the current use of the Internet, as a marketing tool, by the hotel industry. Such a study is timely given that the growth rate of the World Wide Web (WWW or the "Web") is estimated at about 50 per cent per month, with the number of sites doubling every 53 days. Seeks to present an argument for the application of the relationship marketing (RM) model as a framework for the development of hotel Web sites. The authors believe that a successful Web presence depends upon more than just the technology used and the "look and feel" of the site. Hotels need a framework which can bridge the gap between simply connecting to the Web and harnessing its power for competitive advantage.

    Flexible effects of quantified cigarette-smoke delivery on EEG dimensional complexity (1993)
    Springer
    Psychopharmacology 113 (1993), S. 95-102 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2072
    Keywords: Cigarette ; Quantified smoke delivery system ; EEG ; Nonlinear dynamics ; Chaos
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract A quantified smoke delivery system (QSDS) was used to experimentally control the administration of inhaled cigarette smoke to 28 male smokers. One puff (2 s, 35 cc) was taken every 30 s on a cigarette (nicotine yield 1.0 mg) until the char line reached 3 mm from the filter wrap. The smoke was inhaled for 5 s. Resting eyes-closed and eyes-open EEG was recorded from F3, F4, P3, and P4 before and after quantified smoke delivery (QSD). EEG dimensional complexity (DC x, a measure derived from chaos theory) was computed using the Takens-Ellner method. QSD appeared to have a ‘flexible’ effect on EEGDC x, primarily lowering it in subjects whose pre-smoking level was high, not affecting it in subjects whose pre-smoking level was intermediate, and tending to raise it in subjects whose pre-smoking level was low. This replicates previous results obtained with ad libitum smoking, suggesting the hypothesis that smoking may have an “optimizing” effect on the complexity of brain dynamics.

    Cardiovascular responses to a quantified dose of nicotine as a function of personality and nicotine tolerance (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Correlations between cardiovascular effects of a quantified dose of nicotine and personality measures previously shown to predict coronary heart disease were obtained. Thirty male smokers smoked a popular brand of a regular strength cigarette (1.0 mg FTC-estimated nicotine delivery) on one occasion and a nicotine-free cigarette on another occasion by means of a quantified smoke delivery system. Partial correlations controlling for effects of body weight, questionnaire-assessed nicotine tolerance, and cardiovascular responses to the nicotine-free control cigarette showed Jenkins Activity Survey Type A scores to correlate positively with nicotine-induced increase in diastolic blood pressure but negatively with nicotine-induced increase in systolic blood pressure. Partial correlations indicated that trait anxiety and depression were significantly associated with nicotine-induced heart rate increases but not with nicotine-induced blood pressure responses.

    Increased regional cerebral glucose metabolism and semantic memory performance in Alzheimer's disease: A pilot double blind transdermal nicotine positron emission tomography study (1996)
    Springer
    Neuropsychology review 6 (1996), S. 61-79

    Keywords: Alzheimer's disease ; transdermal nicotine ; positron emission tomography ; cholinergic stimulation ; semantic memory ; verbal fluency

    Topics: Psychology
    Notes: Abstract Nicotinic receptor dysfunction and impaired semantic memory occur early in Alzheimer's disease patients (AD). Previous research implied that nicotine's ability to enhance alertness, arousal, and cognition in a number of nonclinical populations was a function of its ability to stimulate CNS nicotinic cholinergic receptors. In this study it was hypothesized that transdermal administration of nicotine would increase both regional cerebral glucose metabolism (rCMRglc) and semantic memory (as assessed by verbal fluency). Two mild AD and two elderly controls underwent positron emission tomography scanning during a double blind nicotinic agonist verbal fluency challenge procedure. rCMRglc increases occurred in both AD patients, but not controls. In the two AD patients, verbal fluency scores increased by an average of 17%. One elderly control's verbal fluency increased, and the other decreased. These findings suggest that nicotine's effect on metabolism and verbal fluency is due to its ability to stimulate the cholinergic system.
