Abstract Background Successful lower extremity reconstruction using free flaps begins by identifying a good recipient vessel and understanding the surrounding environment of the defect. Methods One should consider multiple factors when selecting the recipient vessel such as the status of the axial arteries, trying to preserve flow as much as possible, extent and severity of the defect, and ultimately what type of anastomosis will be ideal. Results Multiple factors of importance are reviewed and show the relevance in decision making and provide an algorithm. Conclusion In addition to the multiple factors to be considered, the ultimate decision should be made on the table during surgery when the actual artery or vein is exposed and shows signs of good pulsation and flow.

Complex Influence

Preparation of building repair activities in multi‐family dwelling houses poses an important problem for habitat co‐operatives in Poland. Firstly, such co‐operatives own and manage a lot of buildings. Secondly, scarcity of economic and non‐economic resources requires their effective allocation. Such allocation should be based on properly prioritised actions’ alternatives. Unfortunately, due to the complex influence of the surrounding environment, the influence of a considerable number of components and diverse point of views is to be included during the analysis of repair needs. Potential influences result from a bunch of sources. The sources are of economic, technological, social and environmental nature. To support a decision‐maker effectively, information pertaining to the importance of particular influences is required. Such information can be obtained by special means of multi‐criteria decision analysis (MCDA) methodology. The application of the chosen approach – Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) for classification of repair needs assessment criteria to shape repair policy appropriately is presented in this paper. Santrauka Pasirengimas remontuoti daugiabučius gyvenamuosius namus sukelia daug problemų tokių namų kooperatyvams Lenkijoje. Pirma, tokie kooperatyvai turi ir valdo daug pastatų. Antra, dėl nepakankamų ekonominių ir neekonominių išteklių reikia juos efektyviai paskirstyti. Toks paskirstymas turi būti pagrįstas išnagrinėjus alternatyvas ir nustačius prioritetines. Deja, remonto poreikio analizę veikia sudėtinga aplinka. Tam įtaką daro daug komponentų, reikia suderinti įvairius požiūrius. Potenciali įtaka kyla iš šaltinių gausos. Yra ekonominiai, technologiniai, socialiniai ir gamtinės aplinkos šaltiniai. Efektyviam sprendimui priimti reikia turėti informacijos apie įtakos svarbą. Tokiai informacijai gauti gali būti pritaikyta speciali daugiakriterinės sprendimų analizės metodologija. Straipsnyje pristatomas metodas, kuriuo vertinami remonto poreikio kriterijai ir padedama suformuluoti remonto politiką.

The organizational culture is one of the most important constituents in the organization and its adaptation with the surrounding environment, And this study aims to explain the effect of the organizational culture on the performance of NITC’s staff Since a sample of 43 employees with different positions were chosen (middle management) ,This study confirmed the descriptive and analytical method by designing questionnaires and spreading the same on the chosen sample, this analyze the results by SPSS. This study concluded to many results the most important one is that there is a relationship between the organizational culture and the NITC staff’s performance, and the most effective dimension on the staff performance was the team work then the Understand the concept of organizational culture then the perception, then time respect, and last but not least the post decision making, and there is no relationship between the organizational culture and the demographic elements. Study recommends designing a mechanism to involve the staff in decision making and to activate the mechanism of full utilization of time to get to a higher productivity.

The environmental sustainability has a big and important role in the success of a company. Organizational benchmarks can be seen from the company's financial performance which is allocated for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) disclosure. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Disclosure is the company's concern for its surrounding environment, which will affect the sustainability of the company. Good companies regularly disclose their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Many studies have been conducted by examining the determinants in Corporate Social Responsibility (CS ) disclosure. However, several things do not show that the research have a big effect on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR ) disclosure. This decision making is based on existing theory.

Abstract From prehistoric times, Signage was a means of visual communication helping people reaching out different environments (internal or external). Long before paper’s invention, humans made marks on objects, such as cave walls, in the surrounding environment, for their communication. As cities grew and mobility increased, making the built environment more complex, people requirements for better information concerning spatial perception and navigation, also grew. Thus, the necessity of proactive, systematically planned, visual unified signage and wayfinding programs have been emerged. Wayfinding is how people get from one location to another, including their information-gathering and decision-making processes for orientation and movement through space. Wayfinding design builds on research in cognition and environmental psychology to design built spaces and products that facilitate the movement of people through urban settings and individual buildings. Despite its demonstrated importance to building use, costs, and safety, wayfinding receives less than its due in planning, research and building evaluation. The aim of this study is to provide a “clear” reading of the environmental space and city’s routes to the users, through architectural wayfindig design. Also, architectural wayfinding design addresses built components, including spatial planning, articulation of form-giving features, circulation systems and environmental communication.

AbstractRahnev & Denison (R&D) argue against normative theories and in favor of a more descriptive “standard observer model” of perceptual decision making. We agree with the authors in many respects, but we argue that optimality (specifically, reward-rate maximization) has proved demonstrably useful as a hypothesis, contrary to the authors’ claims.

AbstractThe target article uses a mathematical framework derived from Bayesian decision making to demonstrate suboptimal decision making but then attributes psychological reality to the framework components. Rahnev & Denison's (R&D) positive proposal thus risks ignoring plausible psychological theories that could implement complex perceptual decision making. We must be careful not to slide from success with an analytical tool to the reality of the tool components.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.
