Reaching across difference
There are growing numbers of trans and non-binary whānau accessing perinatal healthcare in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ). International literature shows that their perinatal healthcare needs, including their lactation and chestfeeding/breastfeeding information, care and support needs, are not well …

Volterra difference equations
… solutions of scalar linear Volterra sum-difference equations are asymptotically stable. The exact value of the rate of convergence of asymptotically stable solutions is found by determining the asymptotic behavior of the transient renewal equations. The study of subexponential solutions …

Orthogonal matrix polynomials and differential, difference and q-difference matrix operators
… orthogonal polynomials satisfying differential, difference or q-difference equations. The search for examples of matrix polynomials which are also eigenfunctions of certain matrix operators is a rather dificult issue. This dificulty is due to several reasons. The most important of these reasons …

The difference that difference makes: leisure, space and teenage wheelchair users
… debates surrounding the significance of difference in developing understandings of the lives of particular 'groups' of (young) people. It challenges the notion of 'wheelchair user' as a universal grouping, exploring the difference and diversity of their leisure experiences in relation to …

Vibration intensity difference thresholds
The intensity difference threshold is defined as ‘the difference in the intensity of two stimuli which is just sufficient for their difference to be detected’.<br/>The aim of this thesis is to advance understanding of the perception of vibration intensity differences in humans. In addition to …

Periodic q-difference equations
… periodic solutions of various kinds of q-difference equations are presented, namely as follows. First, Floquet theory for q-difference equations is established. Second, the Cushing-Henson conjecture is proved for periodic solutions of the Beverton-Holt q-difference equation, resulting in …

A degree of difference
… key features of the degree process. These differences are important because they show a different learning experience for the students, which result in significant impact for individual skills, learning, development and significant impact on business results, all of which are sorely needed …

Wastelands of difference? Urban nature and more-than-human difference in Berlin and Gothenburg
… cue from the question “How do we live with urban difference today?,” such spaces, the thesis argues, emerge through, as well as change with, a variety of socio-ecological entwinements. It proposes that alternative ways of living in urban landscapes may be detected, as well as potentially fostered, …

Sameness and difference in therapy
… clients ('SG2'), did not find a significant difference between Black and White samples in teens of premature termination of counselling or with regards to length of treatment. Similarly, no significant difference was found in terms of dropout rates between those Black clients who were …

Gender Difference in Emotionally Disturbed Children
<p>The purpose of this study was to determine the consequences to emotionally disturbed elementary school girls of being in the minority in self-contained classes for emotionally disturbed children. This study was conducted in MISII (Modified Instructional Service II) classes, primarily for the …

Model Theory of Valued Difference Fields
… the model theoretic properties of valued difference fields, that is, valued fields equipped with a distinguished automorphism. We carry out this study in two different contexts depending on the interaction between the valuation and the distinguished automorphism. In both contexts we obtain …

Stability Analysis of Systems of Difference Equations
Difference equations are the discrete analogs to differential equations. While the independent variable of differential equations normally is a continuous time variable, t, that of a difference equation is a discrete time variable, n, which measures time in intervals. A feature of difference …
