Grouping Environmental Factors Influencing Individual Decision-Making Behavior in Software Projects: A Cluster Analysis [PDF]
An individual decision-making behavior is heavily influenced by and adapted to external environmental factors. Given that software development is a human-centered activity, individual decision-making behavior may affect the software project quality.

Some Observations on the Role of Water States for Biological and Therapeutical Effects
The peculiar properties of water are recalled, among them the “memory of water”, underlining the behavior of cell water, whose “ordered” structure is probably due to the endogenous electromagnetic fields generated by organelles inside the cells, such ...

Environmental Factors Influencing Individual Decision-Making Behavior in Software Project: A Systematic Literature Review [PDF]
As one of the crucial human aspects, individual decision-making behavior that may affect the quality of a software project is adaptive to the environment in which the individual is. However, no comprehensive reference framework of the environmental factors influencing individual decision-making behavior in software projects is presently available. This

Suicide disparities across urban and suburban areas in the U.S.: A comparative assessment of socio-environmental factors using a data-driven predictive approach [PDF]
Disparity in suicide rates between urban and suburban/rural areas is growing, with rural areas typically witnessing higher suicide rates in the U.S. However, previous studies often ignored the effect of socio-environmental factors on the suicide rates and its regional disparity.
