Purpose: Unlike the United Kingdom with her Equality Act 2010 that covers different settings and grounds of discrimination, Malaysia does not have an explicit anti-discrimination legislation. On this ground, in employment context, researchers established employee could institute right against discrimination through common law.
 Theoretical Framework: The argument is founded on implied cont...

In the history of adoption research, subjective norm mostly remains as the unloved child, being significant in this analysis and not significant in that analysis. Already Davis et al. had to exclude subjective norm of the Technology Acceptance Model due to theoretical and measurement problems. Overall the results of subjective norm as an antecedent for behavioral intention in IS research are qu...

Hmgb3 is an X-linked member of a family of chromatin-binding proteins that is expressed in primitive hematopoietic cells capable of long-term hematopoietic repopulation. To examine the role of Hmgb3 in adult hematopoiesis, we generated Hmgb3-deficient (Hmgb3(-/Y)) mice, which are viable but erythrocythemic. Hmgb3(-/Y) mice contain normal numbers of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), which generat...

We consider the hypothesis of the primordial nature of the non-enzymatic reverse tricarboxylic acid (rTCA) cycle and describe a modeling approach to quantify the uncertainty of this hypothesis due to the combinatorial aspect of the constituent chemical transformations. Our results suggest that a) rTCA cycle belongs to a degenerate optimum of auto-catalytic cycles, and b) the set of targets for ...

a characteristic of data envelopment analysis (dea) is to allow individual decision making units (dmus) to select the factor weights which are the most advantageous for them in calculating their efficiency scores. this flexibility in selecting the weights, on the other hand, deters the comparison among dmus on a common base. for dealing with this difficulty and assessing all the dmus on the sam...

Land ecosystems contribute to climate change mitigation by taking up approximately 30% of anthropogenically emitted carbon. However, estimates the amount and distribution carbon uptake across world's or biomes display great uncertainty. The latter hinders a full understanding mechanisms drivers land uptake, predictions future fate sink. is needed as evidence inform strategies such afforestation...
