Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,
, 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

. At the least, this increases the difficulty of testing the theory in on-going organizations. It also limits the degree to which the theory can be used to diagnose jobs prior to planned change, or to evaluate the effects of work redesign activities after changes have been carried out. Activation theory. While
The effect of national culture on the choice of entry mode
- Journal of International Business Studies
, 1988
"... Abstract. Characteristics of national cultures have frequently been claimed to influence the selection of entry modes. This article investigates this claim by developing a theoretical argument for why culture should influence the choice of entry. Two hypotheses are derived which relate culture to en ..."

to entry mode choice, one focussing on the cultural distance between countries, the other on attitudes towards uncertainty avoidance. Using a multinomial logit model and controlling for other effects, the hypotheses are tested by analyzing data on 228 entries into the United States market by acquisition
Construction of Escherichia coli K-12 in-frame, single-gene knockout mutants: the Keio collection. Mol. Syst. Biol 2:2006.0008
, 2006
"... We have systematically made a set of precisely defined, single-gene deletions of all nonessential genes in Escherichia coli K-12. Open-reading frame coding regions were replaced with a kanamycin cassette flanked by FLP recognition target sites by using a one-step method for inactivation of chromosom ..."

We were unable to disrupt 303 genes, including 37 of unknown function, which
The earth is round (p < .05
- American Psychologist
, 1994
"... After 4 decades of severe criticism, the ritual of null hypothesis significance testing—mechanical dichotomous decisions around a sacred.05 criterion—still persists. This article reviews the problems with this practice, including its near-universal misinterpretation ofp as the probability that Ho is ..."

Automated Whitebox Fuzz Testing
"... Fuzz testing is an effective technique for finding security vulnerabilities in software. Traditionally, fuzz testing tools apply random mutations to well-formed inputs of a program and test the resulting values. We present an alternative whitebox fuzz testing approach inspired by recent advances in ..."

Constraint-Based Automatic Test Data Generation
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
, 1991
"... This paper presents a new technique for automatically generating test data. The technique is based on mutation analysis and creates test data that approximates relative adequacy. The technique is a fault-based technique that uses algebraic constraints to describe test cases designed to find particul ..."

Genetic Algorithms, Noise, and the Sizing of Populations
- COMPLEX SYSTEMS
, 1991
"... This paper considers the effect of stochasticity on the quality of convergence of genetic algorithms (GAs). In many problems, the variance of building-block fitness or so-called collateral noise is the major source of variance, and a population-sizing equation is derived to ensure that average sig ..."

Automatic vigilance: the attention-grabbing power of negative social information

To test whether attentional resources are automatically directed away from an attended task to undesirable stimuli, Ss named the colo ..."

Re-examining adaptation and the setpoint model of happiness: Reactions to changes in marital status
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 2003
"... According to adaptation theory, individuals react to events but quickly adapt back to baseline levels of subjective well-being. To test this idea, the authors used data from a 15-year longitudinal study of over 24,000 individuals to examine the effects of marital transitions on life satisfaction. On ..."
