In the latest hydration guidelines of the ACSM (February 2007), two paragraphs are dedicated to the effects of preexercise hyperhydration (PEH) on exercise endurance performance (EEP) and physiological functions. With respect to its ergogenic potential...

We examined the relationship between the percentage of peak heart rate (HR) and the percentage of peak oxygen uptake VO2 during steady-rate incremental wheelchair propulsion in 10 trained female wheelchair athletes (WAs) to determine the appropriateness of using American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) target HRs for training prescription. Oxygen uptake was calculated during each submaximal e...

Aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) measurements have been successfully used towards a better understanding of non-refractory submicron (PM1) aerosol chemical properties based on short-term campaigns. The recently developed Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor (ACSM) has been designed to deliver quite similar artifact-free chemical information but for low cost, and to perform robust monitoring over ...

Purpose – The overall purpose of this study was to develop an understanding of the mediating effect of organizational reputation on service recommendation and customer loyalty. Design/methodology/approach – Four models were developed that were variations of the American Customer Satisfaction Model (ACSM). These models were then tested by using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) procedure on a data...

Secondary organic aerosols (SOA) are crucial components of ambient particulate matters. However, their composition and formation mechanisms remain uncertain. To investigate the SOA evaluate various estimation approaches, a comprehensive measurement was conducted at an urban site, Changzhou, in Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region. 98 kinds volatile compounds (VOCs) were measured by online gas chrom...

Customer satisfaction and loyalty on mobile information services have been investigated in academic literature. However, there are not many researches on the factors with a specific focus on multiple utilitarian services on a crossnational basis. This research examines the antecedents of customer satisfaction and loyalty through a survey of young adult mobile users in Japan and US, respectively...
