Decolonising Clinical Psychology Training in Singapore: Trainee and Recently Qualified Psychologist Views about Diversifying Therapeutic Models
(2022-11-30)Despite literature suggesting that Western psychology and models might not be as culturally appropriate in other cultures (e.g. Henrich et al., 2010; Llewelyn & Shimoyama, 2012), clinical psychology courses in Singapore ... -
Decolonising economics and politics curricula in UK universities
(2023-10-16)This article explores initiatives to decolonise the curriculum via two specific disciplines, namely Economics and Politics, both of which have tended to marginalise the study of race, empire, and colonialism and whose ... -
A decomposable freight wagon frame suitable for bimodal transport systems that uses a fast locking mechanism
(2014-05)This paper describes a novel connection system which allows fast, safe and reliable coupling and uncoupling of two sections of a freight wagon body as part of a bimodal transport system. The connection system allows the ... -
Decomposing the corpus of neuropsychological tests
(1993)This commentary has had two primary concerns: We have attempted to address the difficulties and possibilities of using cognitive tests to measure the underlying biological basis for mental disorders. In particular, we have ... -
Decomposition and changes in chemical composition of leaf litter of five dominant tree species in a West African tropical forest
(2014-05)The objective of the research was to study the rate of decomposition and changes in the chemical characteristics in the leaf litter of selected tree species using a litterbag experiment. The decomposition of leaf litter ... -
Decomposition of the efficiency of the Chinese state-owned commercial banks at the provincial level
(University of Hertfordshire, 2008)This study adopts a bank production function approach to the measurement of banking efficiency at the provincial level in the Chinese state-owned commercial banking sector from 1998 to 2003. Applying Data Envelopment ... -
Decomposition, Classification and Evaluation of Business Models : the Case of Chinese Retailing
(University of Hertfordshire, 2013)This study attempts to provide a systematic approach to the decomposition, classification and evaluation of business models. We propose an internally consistent hierarchical classification scheme for decomposing a generic ... -
Deconstructing car assembler productivity
(1994-06-01)Two generations later in history, social science and management the question is not whether to measure but how to measure and how to evaluate the results of measurement. This paper aims to make a contribution to this debate: ... -
Deconstructing probation: risk and developments in practice
(2008)This article aims to explore the effects of the transition toward risk analysis in terms of the work of practitioners within the criminal justice system, particularly the probation service of England and Wales, and allied ... -
Deconstructing the practice of internationalisation : from a policy position to a way of being
(2010-06-28)The title frames an initial piece of research forming one aspect of the writer’s broader research examining and evaluating internationalisation strategy discourses in UK Higher Education Institutions. For this particular ... -
Decontamination and Management of Contaminated Hair following a CBRN or HazMat Incident
(2019-09)This in vitro study evaluated the “triple protocol” of dry decontamination, the ladder pipe system (a method for gross decontamination), and technical decontamination for the decontamination of hair following chemical ... -
Decontamination of multiple casualties who are chemically contaminated : a challenge for acute hospitals
(2008-03-01)Patients who have been contaminated by chemical compounds present a number of difficulties to emergency departments, in particular, the risk of secondary contamination of healthcare staff and facilities. The Department of ... -
Deconvolution of high-resolution spectra as a signal-to-noise ratio enhancement method
(2004-03-11)We demonstrate the use of singular value decomposition as a method for deconvolving high-resolution spectra of rapidly rotating stars. A convolution matrix can be built from the observed template spectrum of a slowly ... -
The Decoupled Kinematics of High- z QSO Host Galaxies and Their Ly α Halos
(2022-04-15)We present a comparison of the interstellar medium traced by [C ii] (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array), and ionized halo gas traced by Lyα (Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer), in and around QSO host galaxies ... -
Decoupled Sampling-Based Motion Planning for Multiple Autonomous Marine Vehicles
(2018-10-26)There is increasing interest in the deployment and operation of multiple autonomous marine vehicles (AMVs) for a number of challenging scientific and commercial operational mission scenarios. Some of the missions, such as ... -
Decoupling and Control of Real and Reactive Power in Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Power System
(2013)The paper presents a detailed modeling and simulation of different control schemes of the real and reactive power flows in a three-phase voltage source inverter (VSI) interfacing a photovoltaic (PV) generation system to ... -
Decoupling effects - a novel method for composites characterization
(2011)The practice of mechanical characterization of composite materials demonstrates that there are at least two characteristics being very difficult to be determinate by experiments: in-plane shear modulus G(12) and F-12 ...
