Selecting films for sex research: Gender differences in erotic film preference
No full textThe official published version can be obtained from the link below.The aim of this study was to explore gender differences in sexual responsiveness to erotic films that had been selected for their differential appeal for men and women. A secondary objective was to identify variables that influence sexual arousal and explore whether these variables differ for men and women. Fifteen men (M age = 26 yrs) and 17 women (M age = 24 yrs) were presented with 20 film clips depicting heterosexual interactions, half of which were female- and the other half male-selected, and were asked to rate the clips on a number of dimensions. Overall, men found the film clips more sexually arousing than did the women. Gender differences in arousal were negligible for female-selected clips but substantial for male-selected clips. Furthermore, men and women experienced higher levels of sexual arousal to clips selected for individuals of their own gender. Cluster regression analyses, explaining 77% of the variance for male and 65% for female participants, revealed that men's sexual arousal was dependent upon the attractiveness of the female actor, feeling interested, and both imagining oneself as a participant and watching as an observer. For women, with all variables entered, only imagining oneself as a participant contributed to sexual arousal ratings. The findings suggest that how films are selected in sex research is an important variable in predicting levels of sexual arousal reported by men and women

No full textThis report contains a record of the 22-week attachment of a bioengineering
student, Soo Beng Beng (matric no: 071674G19) with Janssen-Cilag Singapre, a
division of Johnson & Johnson.
The 22-week attachment is an opportunity for student to learn in real life
working environment, allowing the student to gain exposure to sales and marketing
operations in the pharmaceutical industry. The attachment enriched student’s
working experience, enhanced student’s interpersonal skills and improved their
working ability.
Author witness the application of bioengineering knowledge learnt in school
to be applied in pharmaceutical industry. It could be a motivation for the student to
learn and so to find out the possibility of more advanced technology.
Author had also learnt about sales and marketing practises during the
attachment. Endless forecasts and analysis are just a fraction of work needed to be
done. Marketing in Janssen-Cilag is quite event-based. Most of the time, marketers
need to be prepared to response to critical situations as events coming up one after
another. Author is glad to find herself was able to fit in to the fully dynamic
environment.
In general, it has been a fruitful and pleasant internship with Janssen-Cilag, a
division of Johnson & Johnson. Author is glad that she was once a member of
Johnson & Johnson

Working from home: how do collaborative behaviors affect the task performance of an individual?
No full textThis master thesis examines how task-related collaborative behaviours effect the perceived individual task performance in the context of working from home. Task-related collaborative behaviours are information exchange, cooperation and coordination. The effects between these variables are investigated via a self-administered questionnaire which has been filled in by individuals who work at least 1 day from home and work in a team as well. The findings indicate that there is no significant effect of information exchange and cooperation on the perceived individual task performance when working from home. Coordination, on the contrary, has a positive effect on the perceived individual task performance when working from home. No significant mediation effect for cooperation on the effect of coordination on perceived individual task performance when working home was found. However, there has been found a positive effect of coordination on cooperation. This study controlled for differences in the number of working days and the number of days of working from home. No significant differences in the number of working days and the number of days working from home were found. This study will give valuable insights for strategic managers into the predictors of perceived individual task performance. These insights will help strategic managers to optimize performances during times that working from home is widely used

Adaptive Governance for a Resilient Digital Society
No full textGovernments are confronted with all kinds of changes in their digital environment, such as pandemics, fake news, and security breaches. These changes come with many uncertainties and are hard to predict, whereas decisions need to be made quickly to avoid a negative impact. Adaptive governance embraces uncertainty and complexity by enabling continuous learning, involving a wide range of diverse actors, and being able to react within a short time frame. Adaptive governance can be viewed as a governance philosophy based on a range of instruments to create adaptability. The conflicting values of stability and adaptability can be balanced in different ways by governments. The variety in the environment and the variety of instrument to adapt to the environment needs to be in concert. Adaptive governance instruments can be combined to increase their effectiveness and to create a resilient society. Further research in governance instruments, their usage, and their effectiveness is needed.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Information and Communication Technolog
