The aim of this work was to investigate the theoretical frameworks underpinning studies exploring the issue of why people having a heart attack delay seeking professional medical help.
Both of these policy change mechanisms have been investigated based on theoretical frameworks of the policy process and the ways evidence may be taken up into policy.
There are also numerous studies based on search theoretical frameworks investigating issues of informal employment from the point of view of low- and middle-income countries.
In this study, we first develop theoretical frameworks to investigate impact dynamics of current EPS helmets and airbag helmets-as a form of expandable helmet design.
Our in-depth investigation yielded two theoretical frameworks.
To test the applicability of potentially relevant theoretical frameworks for medical education, we investigated whether the contents of available medical educational environment instruments corresponded with the framework (Study 2).
This paper presents a theoretical framework to investigate the relationships between the design of a supply network (SN) and inter-organizational information sharing (IIS).
We contribute to the incubation literature by extending recognition of the heterogeneity of incubation models, by delineating the accelerator as a distinctive incubation model and by introducing the design lens as a useful theoretical framework to investigate incubation models and their evolution.
In order to resolve this ambiguity, we propose a theoretical framework to investigate the antecedents and influences of trust and distrust in the online shopping context, relying on the literature of website design and consumer trust, ambivalence theories, as well as emerging studies on distrust in the work place.
For example, Kang et al. (2011) used social identity theory as a theoretical framework to investigate the relationship between young professional men's perceptions of work identity and their use of dress.
