In this paper, we report an inventory of leader behaviours that can promote creativity among R&D professionals. Specifically, we constructed and quantitatively validated a scale that was previously developed using a qualitative approach. We surveyed 584 scientists from 11 R&D laboratories in India. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses of the rating responses disclosed five leader behavi...

Bacteriol. 83:584-589. 1962.-Serological relationships of Bacterionema matruchotii were studied by means of the complement-fixation reaction. A common complement-fixing antigen was demonstrated in 37 strains of this organism. Serological relationships to species in the gener...

OBJECTIVES To determine the tumour and general characteristics, especially survival, of patients presenting with hepatocellular carcinoma at our tertiary care cancer hospital. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively studied 584 charts of patients consecutively registered between 1995 and 2004 at the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre, in Lahore, Pakistan. Descriptive ...

This paper uses a quasi-experimental approach to test the hypothesis that the political gender gap is driven by rising divorce risk. We exploit a largely unexpected legal change in Britain, the White v White case, which in 2000 established a rule of parity for the split of assets upon divorce. Using a difference-in-differences approach, we find that the gender gap in political preferences decli...

We extend the half moment entropy closure for the radiative heat transfer equations presented in [J. Comput. Phys. 180 (2002) 584] and [J. Comput. Phys. 198 (2004) 363] to multi-D. To that end we consider a partial moment system with general partitions of the unit sphere closed by an entropy minimization principle. We give physical and mathematical reasons for this choice of model and study its...

Large, well-ordered three-dimensional crystals of 50 S ribosomal subunits from Halobacterium marismortui have been obtained by seeding. The crystals have been characterized with synchrotron X-ray radiation as monoclinic, space group P2(1), with unit cell dimensions of a = 182(+/- 5) A, b = 584(+/- 10) A, c = 186(+/- 5) A, beta = 109 degrees. At 4 degrees C, the crystals (0.6 mm X 0.6 mm X 0.1 m...
