Stress in UK families conducting intensive home-based behavioral intervention for their young child with autism
No full textThere is increasing international interest in intensive home-based behavioral intervention for children with autism. In the present study, 141 UK parents conducting such interventions completed a questionnaire addressing issues of stress, coping, and support. Regression analyses showed that parents'' stress levels were predicted mainly by psychological rather than demographic variables. In particular, adaptive coping strategies, informal social support sources, and beliefs about the efficacy of the intervention were associated with lower reported stress and higher levels of autism symptomatology were associated with higher reported stress. There was also evidence that the use of Passive Appraisal coping and beliefs about the efficacy of the interventions moderated the effects of autism symptomatology on parents'' pessimism. Implications of these findings for future research and for the support of families engaged in intensive home-based behavioral intervention are discussed

Budget
No full textEr is een groeiend besef dat bouwprocesinnovatie een belangrijke bijdrage kan leveren aan de verbetering en versterking van de bouwbedrijfskolom als geheel. Op verschillende niveaus wordt in alle bedrijfstakken, dus ook in de bouw, de toenemende concurrentie ervaren en dus de urgentie gevoeld om sneller in te spelen op versterking van de vraagkant van de markt. De verschuiving van een meer productgerichte naar een procesgerichte invalshoek van het bouwen, leidt tot de opgave om de verschillende procesfasen en de daarin opererende partijen beter op elkaar af te stemmen. Kennis van bouw- en uitvoeringstechnologie, onderhoud en beheer moet in een zo vroeg mogelijke fase een rol spelen in de ontwikkeling van een project. Het besef dat er beter samengewerkt moet worden, wordt "bouwbreed" gedeeld. Dit vereist echter een substantiële verbetering van het ontwerp- en bouwproces en daarvoor is specifieke kennis, kennisbeheer en toegankelijkheid van die kennis nodig. Deze publicatie wil een bijdrage leveren aan de vernieuwing en verbetering van het bouwproces door de aandacht te richten op een voor Nederlandse begrippen vrij nieuwe vorm van samenwerking: de projectalliantie.Real Estate & HousingArchitecture and The Built Environmen
An Intelligent Driver Warning System
No full textThis chapter is focussed on the research and development of an intelligent driver warning system (IDWS) as a means to improve road safety and driving comfort. Two independent IDWS case studies are presented. The first study examines the methodology and implementation for attentive visual tracking and trajectory estimation for dynamic scene segmentation problems. In the second case study, the concept of driver modelling is evaluated which can be used to provide useful feedback to drivers. In both case studies, the quality of IDWS is largely determined by the modelling capability for estimating multiple vehicle trajectories and modelling driving behaviour. A class of modelling techniques based on neural-fuzzy systems, which exhibits provable learning and modelling capability, is proposed. For complex modelling problems where the curse of dimensionality becomes an issue, a network construction algorithm based on Adaptive Spline Modelling of Observation Data (ASMOD) is also proposed
