Matthew S. Connolly, Stephen M. Jaskolka, Jeffrey S. Rosen, and Michael D. Szkutak's article "ENGINEERING PERFORMANCE OF ATER MIST FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS ITH ANTIFREEZE" provides an intriguing view with regard to the importance of providing solutions to fire systems in exceptional circumstances. The fact that water in fire systems was frozen led to a series of issues throughout the world as a result of the respective systems being unable to function and thus being ineffective. By installing antifreeze in water mist fire suppression systems, one would likely experience positive results in fighting fires in freezing temperatures. The article provides a scenario involving the development of a fire protection system using antifreeze as a solution to episodes in….

Assessing Research and Peer-Reviewed WorkIntroductionPeer-review is an important process in academic and research spaces that ensures the accuracy and validity of information being published. It is a process in which a group of experts, known as peers, review the work of authors before it is published. This process provides critiques and feedback from qualified academics and professionals, which can help to improve the quality of the work. In order to determine if information is peer-reviewed, look for indicators such as the author being a recognized expert in the field, references to other published works, the language being formal, and the presence of a bibliography. Additionally, many online databases will have a filter option to search for peer-reviewed content.Importance of Peer-ReviewPeer review is an important quality control process that is used to evaluate the work of other researchers before it is published. Peer review helps to ensure that published research is….

Peer-reviewed articles are valuable sources of scholarly information. They provide quality, objective, and accurate information on various topics. This is achieved by subjecting the articles to rigorous scrutiny by peer researchers, hence the name peer-reviewed. Though there are variations in how research articles are formatted, there are standardised elements that appear in every article irrespective of the format. A peer-reviewed article must on the minimum have a title, details of the author(s), an abstract, an introduction, a literature review section, a methodology section, a results section, a discussion and conclusion section, footnotes or in-text references, and a list of references or bibliography. This paper analyses the extent to which three selected journal articles conform to these elements. The selected articles relate to the subject of total quality management (TQM). Oschman, J. (2017).

Evaluation and Improvement of an Advisory Program

By John alter Van Ornum

A rural Hawaiian high school is faced with a problem -- it cannot be clearly stated whether or not the school's student advisory initiative's goals are being met. Statistical techniques utilized in the study (paper 1) for computing the results were not clear, and no evidence exists regarding the current survey's validity and reliability. Further, these qualities were not evaluated.

The study's purpose was to evaluate Molokai High School's advisory program. The research questions seek responses from the advisors and advisees to evaluate the efficacy of Advisory program. The researcher believes that this study will help those

Alignment: Summary and Analysis
In the peer-reviewed article Complementarities Between Organizational IT Architecture and Governance Structure (Tiwana, Konsynski, 2010) the authors contend that IT architecture and IT governance design and implementation is highly dependent on systematic and process-related interdependencies that will often shift significantly over the lifecycle of any IT framework. This makes the task of ensuring adoption of IT architectural components, as diverse as Service Oriented Architectures (SOA), Web Services, Platform-as-a-Service (Paas) and other nascent enterprise platform technologies, are continually aligned to the business' strategic programs, plans, strategies and initiatives. This is where the article unifies IT governance and IT architecture, concentrating on how each are critically important for ensuring the agility of an enterprise over time. Through a well-defined methodology and use of advanced statistical analysis techniques including Factor Analysis, the authors convey how the alignment of IT architectures and governance frameworks to business objectives enable an enterprise….

esilience in Supply Chain Management- A Critical eview
esilience to any management issue involving economic and social relevance especially in a dynamic and fast changing environment requires empirical research data to substantiate and authenticate the mitigation and pre-emptive formats designed. Most studies that appropriate risks have done so based on incidences and are thus effect-based (reactive) rather than being original considerations. As such, most studies prepare organizations for situations that have already occurred, which may not be enough, as the nature of risks, calamities and place of occurrence are changing rapidly. The article under consideration does well to incorporate most of the important elements to create a framework for building resilience in a Supply Chain Management organization.

This article integrates the implications of the business-resilience research concept for management, and explains the way business resilience practice will be able to aid organizations in managing their international supply chains within a progressively….

PubMed search terms used to initially identify a qualitative study were the following: nursing qualitative. A large number of citations were retrieved, but the selection was further limited by only those available as free full-text articles through PubMed Central. This provided some idea of what is available and after skimming down the citations the topic of tuberculosis treatment compliance was chosen. The search terms used next were the following: tuberculosis treatment compliance. A large number of studies were found and after skimming down the first page of the retrieval results a qualitative and epidemiological (quantitative) study were identified, both of which focused on patient compliance in third world regions of the world, Burundi and India.
The study conducted by Zaman and colleagues (2014) was an epidemiological study examining the percentage of residents in Assam, India testing positive for tuberculosis who sought treatment early or late following diagnosis, in addition to….

Chi-Square Statistical Testing in Medical esearch
The research undertaken by Bryant et al. (1999) was designed to assess if and how post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), may be prevented through the use of early intervention cognitive therapy. The research was undertaken with a sample of forty-five civilians who had survived the trauma within the preceding fourteen days and would generally be expected to develop PTSD, as assessed through the acute stress disorder interview based on DSM-IV (Bryant et al., 1999). The sample were divided into three treatment groups receiving different treatments. The results were assessed based on the treatment received, and a post treatment assessment six months later to determine whether or not they had developed PTSD. The assessment was undertaken utilising statistical analysis, providing a method of analysis that could be tested to determine whether or not there was any significant difference.

This research design indicates the research variables. The dependent….

SRS and code systems
Criticisms from one's respected peers can often hurt more than criticisms from laypeople or new users of a software system. One assumes that one's fellow professionals can make a more reasoned, if not necessarily more objective critique. However, personal differences can enter the fray of even the most objective peer review and thus affect the constructive nature of the criticism.

To ensure objectivity, it is important that individuals address their differences with particular elements in relation to the system being reviewed, not to the person. For instance, don't say, 'you didn't do a good job on this,' speak about the system or code under critique. Specifics are key, rather than saying, 'I don't think that works,' say what the potential problems arise when the system is used and try to give a constructive, concrete solution how one could possibly reform it and make it better. "However you….

quality of care and ensuring patient safety. In the home health care organization, peer review also measures staff competence and provides valuable feedback for performance reviews and making necessary changes to improve quality of service or efficiency of operations. One of the cornerstones of an effective peer review process is its ability to enhance accountability by promoting "self-regulation," (Kent, 2014, p. 1). Another important emblem of an effective peer review process in the home health care venue specifically is shared governance, a model of peer review that has been shown to be particularly easy to implement and also maintain (Furrer, 1996). In the home health care organization that I belong to, a formal peer review process does exist and it also reflects the core missions and values of the organization.
Moreover, the formal peer review process that exists in my home health organization is modeled after those espoused by both….

There are several benefits to participating in a peer review. When you participate in a peer review, you are putting yourself in a position to both learn and teach. There's an adage that says you're never too old to learn and never too young to teach, and I find that to be quite apt when thinking about the benefits of a peer review. The end result is that your essay skills improve, as do those of your classmates. Your skills improve with the insight you get from your classmates. A peer review might typically have 3-4 peers reviewing your work, and maybe not all of them will have useful insight, but someone will. So you learn how to receive criticism in the sense that you learn how to filter it for the valuable insight and actionable tips. Learning how to filter criticism is a powerful thing in life.
Furthermore, when there is….

However, by using peer-reviewed journals, there is a far greater likelihood that the information will have value.

ABSTRACT: This paper illustrates how to estimate criminal justice system costs by offence type. Criminal justice system costs are all the costs the authorities incur to prevent and investigate crime, prosecute criminals, impose sentences, and take care of victims and offenders. There are two approaches: the break-down and the bottom-up approaches. The break-down approach decomposes the aggregate budget into smaller pieces. The bottom-up approach multiplies known costs per activity by volumes for each activity and offence type. Both approaches can be combined with two types of estimates:….

Each level influences and is influenced by those around it." (Costa, Kahaneo, Lipton, et al., 2001, p. 2).
Once the teacher understands how their performance and their teaching ability relate to the outcomes of the school as a whole, they will be able to understand the need for peer observation and coaching. They desire better outcomes for the school, but they are not accustomed to the openness of the peer coaching model, as we will see.

Barriers to Success

Through the course of this literature review, several key barriers to the success of peer coaching programs were discovered, Many of the problems related to logistical problems that could be easily solved through time management or creative scheduling. However, some of barriers to success related to the attitudes of the teachers themselves. This barriers will prove much more difficult to resolve.

One of the key barriers to professional development programs is finding time to….

Canadian Psychology entitled "Expanding Opportunities for Diversity in Positive Psychology" presents the results of a systematic review of literature. The review of literature covers the years between 1998 and 2014, spanning the bulk of the duration of the field of positive psychology. The purpose of the systematic review was to examine how issues related to race, class, and gender were addressed in literature on positive psychology because of what the authors claim to be a widespread perception of the field ignoring these relevant issues. Findings of the systematic review of literature were varied, and included an underrepresentation of female authors of peer-reviewed articles in the field of positive psychology in spite of an over-representation of female participants in empirical research. Additionally, ao & Donaldson (2015) found that discussions about gender, race, or ethnicity issues are nearly absent from positive psychology literature altogether. The bulk of research in positive psychology….

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is a theory that suggests that people have different levels of needs. They cannot focus on higher needs until their lower needs are met. This hierarchy has applications in many areas of life, so you can find a ton of articles on the theory.

In Maslow’s theory, needs ascend in the following order

• Physiological needs
• Safety needs
• Love and social belonging needs
• Esteem needs
• Cognitive needs
• Aesthetic needs
• Self-actualization (added later in expanded needs)
• Transcendence (added later in expanded needs)

Until a person has met their lower needs they do not have the resources to focus on meeting higher needs.
