Streszczenie:

This thesis has two aims. First, it sets out to develop an alternative methodology for the investigation of risk homeostasis theory (RHT). It is argued that the current methodologies of the pseudo-experimental design and post hoc analysis of road-traffic accident data both have their limitations, and that the newer 'game' type simulation exercises are also, but for different reasons, incapable of testing RHT predictions. The alternative methodology described here is based on the simulation of physical risk with intrinsic reward rather than a 'points pay-off'. The second aim of the thesis is to

All decisions involve risk; yet the subject is poorly understood and difficult to define. Understanding risk is vital for military leaders that prepare their forces to operate in risky environments against adversaries that seek to impose risk upon their enemies. Furthermore, the decisions of military leaders affect those subordinates under their command and ultimately the will of the nation that has sent them abroad. It is paramount, therefore, that we utilize a decision process to reveal how emotions can affect our judgment. Frequently, cultural forces in the military can result in ill-inform

An employee who has a low level of awareness of how behaviours impact corporate reputation, and access to large online communities, could potentially expose the business to reputational risk. The vast number of individuals on these networks, combined with the low level of skill needed to publish on these sites, has resulted in comments and behaviours being amplified to a much greater audience. Employees and their behaviours represent the reality of the organisation to external stakeholders, and so offer a potential risk for reputational damage.This research used an online survey with Likert sc

Flooding is an important concern for the UK, as evidenced by the many extreme flooding events in the last decade. Improved flood risk intervention strategies are therefore highly desirable. The application of hydroinformatics tools, and optimisation algorithms in particular, which could provide guidance towards improved intervention strategies, is hindered by the necessity of performing flood modelling in the process of evaluating solutions. Flood modelling is a computationally demanding task; reducing its impact upon the optimisation process would therefore be a significant achievement and of

For example, plants may reduce the risk of reproductive failure by spreading their reproductive effort in space (dispersal) or in time (dormancy, iteroparity). Similarly, different plant breeding systems, (for example the ability to autonomously self-fertilise) may reduce the risk of reproductive failure in environments where pollination in particular is unreliable. Each of these strategies may be affected by selective pre

Globale Urbanisierungsprozesse und eine Zunahme der räumlichen Konzentration von exponierten Elementen wie Menschen, Gebäude, Infrastruktur und ökonomische Werte induzieren ein ungekanntes Risiko in erdbebengefährdeten Regionen. Wenn keine Abschwächung des Risikos erfolgt werden dramatische Folgen in der Zukunft erwartet. Diese umfassen eine beispiellose Anzahl an Todesopfer, enorme ökonomische und ökologische Verluste und Ausfälle bezüglich kritischer Infrastruktur und Versorgung etc. Um derartige Gefährdungen abzuschwächen sind detaillierte Informationen über seismisches Risiko notwendig.

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>This report proposes a method of risk determination that incorporates a loss function and a probability function in order to better enable decision makers in determining the risk of implementing wireless technologies in reverberant enclosed spaces that contain sensitive installed components. There is a constant desire to include new technology into the systems being designed to operate onboard U.S. Naval vessels. One of these technologies is wireless communications. This technology relies on the use of the electromagnetic spectrum in or

Technology enhancements of the past two decades have not successfully overcome the problem of low motivation in Kindergarten through Grade 12 (K-12). Motivation and math achievement have been identified as major factors contributing to the high school dropout problem (30-50% in traditional/online programs). The impact of extrinsic rewards on achievement and the dropout problem, however, remains a subject of debate. This dissertation seeks first to address this debate, through an investigation of reward system effectiveness in the blended learning environment, on at-risk students with varied in
