Furthermore, as DPC drops below the threshold, the effect of this configuration of practices becomes non-significant at conventional p levels and gradually decreases until it turns into a negative effect, which comes closer to statistical significance when the DPC reaches its minimum.
The concept of hegemonic masculinity is part of a theory of gender order proposed by R.W. Connell, and it can be defined as any current configuration of practices that legitimize men's dominant position and justify the subordination of women and other marginalized men.
While much writing has explored how place shapes health (6, 11, 12, 29), little has considered how the public nature of life in urban informal settlements and the lack of private spaces may contribute to certain configurations of gender practices emerging.
The thematic issue builds upon the work of the ISCH COST Action IS1001 "Bio-objects and their boundaries" to offer a set of inter-related papers that retain analytical continuity while exploring different empirical configurations of biobanking practice (cf. Vermeulen et al. 2012).
Determining cost-effective configurations of best management practices (BMPs) is a notably complex problem, especially for large-scale watersheds.
This study successfully derived a taxonomy of primary health practices based on configurations of the characteristics of practices and extended prior research that had noted certain characteristics being important to GP satisfaction e.g., per [ 11- 13].
These aim to illustrate the arrangements and configurations of the heating practice.
It is defined as 'the configuration of gender practice which embodies the currently accepted answer to the problem of the legitimacy of patriarchy, which guarantees the dominant position of men and the subordination of women' (2).
Overall, the study demonstrated that although it is technically possible to identify patients with possible but uninvestigated colorectal cancer, the present configuration of general practice is ill suited to make use of this information.
Scholars have explored ways through which configurations of technologies, infrastructures, social practices, institutions and markets can change to fulfil their functions in a more sustainable way.
