The Association Among Gender, Computer Use and Online Health Searching, and Mental Health

The authors use data from the 2004 General Social Survey to examine the relationship among gender, computer and Internet use for health purposes and mental health. Their findings are mixed in that computer and Internet use are both positively and negatively related to mental health. They find evidence that there may be a selection bias occurring in which those with the ...

Internet use and depression among older adults

Fewer studies have examined this issue among older adults. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between Internet use and depression among retired Americans age 50 years or older. Using data from the Health and Retirement Survey, the study estimates the relationship between Internet use and depression through combined use of regression and propensity score methodologies. All empirical methods indicate a positive contribution of Internet use to mental well-being of retired older adults (P50 years), reducing depression categorization by approximately 20-28%.

Relationship of Internet Safety Information Seeking on Risky Riding Behavior and Use of Protective Gear among an Online Motorcycle Community

Abstract: Although substantial research examines motorcycle accidents after they happen, less is ... more Abstract: Although substantial research examines motorcycle accidents after they happen, less is known about how motorcycle riders obtain safety information and how this relates to risk taking and protective behaviors. Rather than taking a reactive approach (ie, investigating accidents after they happen), this study takes a proactive approach by investigating riders' reports of their behaviors in relation to motorcycle riding and related activities. The goal is to determine models predictive of risk taking and protective ...

As capable as the U.S. shipbuilding industry is in responding to the world's most demanding National Security Strategy, the same cannot be said in the global commercial marketplace. The combination of heavy subsidies in shipyards by foreign governments, U.S. labor rates that are as high as twenty times that of other international shipbuilders, a lack of economies of scale, inefficiencies from excess shipyard capacity, and less-than optimal manufacturing and management practices leaves the U.S. commercial shipbuilders incapable of competing in the global commercial marketplace, especially for large ships. Accepting this reality, the question then becomes what can and should be done through national policies and practices to foster commercial shipbuilding and help retain our global sea power projection capacities.

Yet, we know little about the factors that determine successful adoption, use, and attitudes toward the computers. The City Council of Birmingham, Alabama is the first in the United States to provide One Laptop Per Child XO laptops to all students in first-fifth grades in the Birmingham City School System. The purpose of this study is to present the survey results examining factors that are related to XO laptop usage and attitudes among fourth- ...
