An implantable artificial endocrine pancreas consisting of a glucose sensor and a closed-loop insulin delivery system could potentially replace the need for glucose self-monitoring and regulation among insulin dependent diabetics. Achieving such a break through largely depends on the development of an appropriate, biocompatible membrane for the sensor. Biocompatibility is crucial since changes in the glucose sensors membrane resulting from attack by orinter action with living tissues can interfere with sensor reliability and accuracy. If such interactions can be understood, however, compensations can be made for their effects. Current polymer technology offers several possible membranes that meet the unique chemical dynamics required of a glucose sensor. Two of the most promising polymer membranes are polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and silicone (Si). Low-voltage scanning electron microscopy, which is an excellent technique for characterizing a variety of polymeric and non-conducting materials, 27 was applied to the examination of experimental sensor membranes.

Tailored Approach

Mobile tools are increasingly available to help individuals monitor their progress toward health behavior goals. Commonly known commercial products for health and fitness self-monitoring include wearable devices such as the Fitbit© and Nike + Pedometer© that work independently or in conjunction with mobile platforms (e.g., smartphones, media players) as well as web-based interfaces. These tools track and graph exercise behavior, provide motivational messages, offer health-related information, and allow users to share their accomplishments via social media. Approximately 2 million software programs or “apps” have been designed for mobile platforms (Pure Oxygen Mobile, 2013), many of which are health-related. The development of mobile health devices and applications is advancing so quickly that the Food and Drug Administration issued a Guidance statement with the purpose of defining mobile medical applications and describing a tailored approach to their regulation.

Zusammenfassung: Hauptziel des Beitrags ist es, zwei persönlichkeitspsychologische Grundpositionen, den Eigenschaftsansatz und den dynamisch-interaktionistischen Ansatz, aufeinander zu beziehen. Als Beispiel für die dominierende Eigenschaftsorientierung der deutschsprachigen Persönlichkeitspsychologie wird im ersten Abschnitt das Fünf-Faktoren Modell dargestellt und mit alternativen Ansätzen verglichen. Im zweiten Abschnitt wird die Position vertreten, daß Eigenschaftsmodelle mit der Konzeption des dynamischen Interaktionismus vereinbar sind. Dies wird am Beispiel der Selbstdarstellungsforschung, die sich auf Müller-Freienfels zurückführen läßt, veranschaulicht. Eigenschaften können nicht nur (1) als Prädiktoren von Selbstdarstellung, sondern auch (2) als Produkte von Selbstdarstellung aufgefaßt werden: Als Beispiel für den ersten Fall bietet sich die Persönlichkeitsdimension “Self-Monitoring” an. Außerdem wird “Persönlichkeitsdarstellung” als neuer Selbstdarstellungsstil eingeführt. Als Beispiele für Eigenschaften als Selbstdarstellungsprodukte dienen “situative Identitäten” sowie die “Big Five”, die als Stile der Selbstdarstellung interpretiert werden. Im dritten Abschnitt geht es um eine kritische Einschätzung des “Selbst als Beziehung” von Gergen . Seine Auffassung, daß grundlegende Annahmen von Eigenschaftsmodellen nicht länger gültig sind, konnte in einer explorativen Untersuchung nicht bestätigt werden. Um zu einer Lösung des Problems der Einheit in der Vielheit des Selbst beizutragen, wird schließlich das Sternsche Konzept einer zielbezogenen “unitas multiplex” vorgestellt.

The name similarity effect is the tendency to like people, places, and things with names similar to our own. Although many researchers have examined name similarity effects on preferences and behavior, no research to date has examined whether individual differences exist in susceptibility to those effects. This research reports the results of two experiments that examine the role of self-monitoring in moderating name similarity effects. In the first experiment, name similarity effects on brand attitude and purchase intentions were found to be stronger for respondents high, rather than low, in self-monitoring. In the second experiment, the interactive effect observed in the first study was found to be especially true in a public (vs. private) usage context. These findings are consistent with theoretical expectations of name similarity effects as an expression of egotism manifested in the image and impression management concerns of high self-monitors.
