Impaired electrical conduction has been shown to play an important role in the development of heart rhythm disorders. Being able determine conductivity is localize arrhythmogenic substrate that causes abnormalities atrial tissue. In this work, we present algorithm estimate from epicardial electrograms (EGMs) using a high-resolution electrode array. With these arrays, it possible measure propaga...

Aiming at the actuality that the research about costumer service recovery prediction structure is relatively deficient under the background of China culture, based on literature analysis, profound interview, opening investigation and expectation research, we adopt exploratory factor analysis method and confirmatory factor analysis method to develop and validate the scale used to measure custome...

This paper reports the development and validation of a short Use of Creative Cognition Scale in studying (UCCS) that was inspired by the Cognitive Processes Associated with Creativity (CPAC) scale. In Study 1, items from two of the six subscales of the CPAC were excluded due to conceptual and psychometric issues to create a 21-item CPAC scale, which was administered to 517 university students. ...
