ABSTRACT Performance appraisal (PA) is commonly used by organizations to manage their employees. However, the role of PAs in employee creativity remains ambiguous, with positive, negative, or even nonsignificant relationships reported in the literature. The aim of the present research is to address this ambiguity.

Outcome Independence of Entanglement in One-Way Computation

, 2012
We show that the various intermediate states appearing in the process of one-way computation at a given step of measurement are all equivalent modulo local unitary transformations. This implies, in particular, that all those intermediate states share the

Using of small-scale quantum computers in cryptography with many-qubit entangled states

, 2004
We propose a new cryptographic protocol. It is suggested to encode information in ordinary binary form into many-qubit entangled states with the help of a quantum computer. A state of qubits (realized, e.g., with photons) is transmitted through a quantum

Testing the factor structure of the International Trauma Questionnaire in a sample of violence‐exposed women living in Northern Ireland

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract The International Trauma Questionnaire (ITQ) assesses posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and the disturbances in self‐organization (DSO) aspect of complex PTSD (CPTSD) per the ICD‐11. This study examined the ITQ's factor structure among violence‐ or abuse‐exposed women in Northern Ireland, a region with a history of conflict (i.e., “the ...
