The Motivation of Software Engineers : Developing a Rigorous and Usable Model
(University of Hertfordshire, 2007)This report presents a summary of the work undertaken in the one year EPSRC “Modelling Motivation in Software Engineering” (MoMSE) project (2005). The aim of this work is to produce a model of motivation in software ... -
Motivation to change in recent onset and long-standing bulimia nervosa : are there differences?
(2007)Little is known about how motivation to change evolves over the course of an eating disorder. The present study compared 'stage of change' and motivation, confidence and readiness to change in two groups of patients with ... -
Motivation, achievements and failure of strategic alliances: The case of Swedish auto-manufacturers in Russia
(2005)A large number of industrial manufacturers are forming various types of alliances in a bid to improve their competitive position. The number of strategic alliances has almost doubled in the past ten years and is expected ... -
Motivations and perceived usefulness of technology in higher education
(Academic Conferences Ltd., 2008)This study investigates student experiences with learning and teaching technologies using data obtained through an online survey of 553 students. The following specific questions are addressed in the study. What type of ... -
Motivators and de-motivators in software process improvement : an empirical study
(University of Hertfordshire, 2001)Software quality problems are a concern for the software engineering community. Software Process Improvement (SPI) is the most recent and most popular approach adopted to address this problem. SPI focuses on the processes ... -
Motivators of Software Process Improvement : An Analysis of Practitioners' Views
(2002-05-15)We present empirical findings from our study of Software Process Improvement (SPI) motivators in 13 UK software companies. Our analysis aims to provide SPI managers with some insight into designing appropriate SPI ... -
Motor awareness in anosognosia for hemiplegia : experiments at last
(2010)Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is the apparent inability to acknowledge contralesional paralysis, typically following right-hemisphere lesions. Here we review studies that regard AHP as a specific deficit of motor awareness ... -
Motor Interference And Behaviour Adaptation in Human-Humanoid Interactions
(2013-04-04)This thesis proposes and experimentally demonstrates an approach enabling a humanoid robot to adapt its behaviour to match a human’s behaviour in real-time human-humanoid interaction. The approach uses the information ... -
Motor Resonance as Indicator for Quality of Interaction - Does it Scale to Natural Movements?
(International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and MultiAgent Systems (IFAAMAS), 2018-07-10)Detecting in an automatic manner whether a particular interaction between man and machine “works”, is an unsolved problem in human-machine interaction. No computational technique exists by which the artificial agent could ... -
The Motor Unawareness Assessment (MUNA): A new tool for the assessment of Anosognosia for hemiplegia
(2021-02-15)Introduction: Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is a condition in which patients with paralysis are unaware of their motor deficits. Research into AHP is important for improving its treatment and providing insight into the ... -

Motor versus body awareness: Voxel-based lesion analysis in anosognosia for hemiplegia and somatoparaphrenia following right hemisphere stroke
(2016-10-01)Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is informative about the neurocognitive basis of motor awareness. However, it is frequently associated with concomitant symptoms, such as hemispatial neglect and disturbances in the sense ... -

The Mouse That Squeaked: A Small Flare from Proxima Cen Observed in the Millimeter, Optical, and Soft X-Ray with Chandra and ALMA : A small flare from Proxima Cen observed in the millimeter, optical, and soft X-ray with Chandra and ALMA
(2022-10-18)Abstract: We present millimeter, optical, and soft X-ray observations of a stellar flare with an energy squarely in the regime of typical X1 solar flares. The flare was observed from Proxima Cen on 2019 May 6 as part of a ... -
MOVE: a fun Playground
(2023-04-27)“Most people, talking of their happiest childhood experiences, will describe places that were wild, overgrown, mysterious, hidden from adult eyes; trees where they built houses, undergrowth where they created smugglers' ... -
Movement Acts in Breakdown Situations : How a Robot’s Recovery Procedure Affects Participants’ Opinions
(2021-08-18)Recovery procedures are targeted at correcting issues encountered by robots. What are people’s opinions of a robot during these recovery procedures? During an experiment that examined how a mobile robot moved, the robot ...
