Different from most insurgent research, I operationalize territorial control, and conclude that the NSAG's political mandate, the opportunity cost to the NSAG to control territory, and the opportunity cost to the population to endorse the NSAG's territorial control are significant.
To operationalize the cooperative control strategy, we design cooperative controllers for sequential equipped vehicles in a platoon, where they collaborate to optimise a joint objective.
Because size and risk have been suggested in previous articles to be factors that affect both the firm's performance and CSP (e.g., Ullman, 1985), each of these characteristics was operationalized as a control variable.
This study aims to revive this concept and highlight the fact that documentation on ways to operationalize urban TB control is required from a holistic development perspective.
Illusions of control, as operationalized by optimism in affective forecasting, were also assessed.
Individual differences in executive control were operationalized by performance on a letter fluency task.
Cognitive control was operationalized as performance on a working memory task and a task measuring inhibitory control.
Dependent variables were the four tobacco control measures, operationalized as a binary variable with 1 (= in favor) and 2 (= not in favor).
To estimate decisional balance, we utilized the Sense of Control metric operationalized by Lachman and Weaver, which contains two dimensions: personal mastery and perceived constraints (Lachman and Weaver, 1998).
The potential benefits of operationalizing decision rules based on control engineering principles are particularly significant for adaptive interventions that involve multiple components or address co-morbidities, situations that pose significant challenges to conventional clinical practice.
Both literatures focus on a difference in levels of behavior between the incentivized group and a non-incentivized control group when operationalizing an undermining effect of rewards and a motivation crowding out effect, respectively.
