This study examines the expression of selflessness – the tendency to ignore one’s own needs and serve others’ needs – in Rorschach protocols of women suffering from anorexia nervosa. The protocols of 35 women suffering from anorexia nervosa were compared to 30 protocols of a psychiatric comparison group. A multivariate analysis of variance over five variables (AG, PER, PHR, COP, and GHR) was significant: Anorexic patients showed higher characteristics of selflessness compared to the psychiatric comparison group. These findings contribute to the validation of the Rorschach technique and to the clinical observation of selflessness in anorexic patients, and they emphasize specific characteristics in the treatment of anorexia nervosa patients.

Interactions of attention and verbalization were investigated for effects of self-reported arousal and state-anxiety. Levels of verbalization from silence through talking-without-a-listener to disclosure were compared while self-directed attention was manipulated for sensation versus general thoughts and feelings. Following a stimulus, disclosure of sensations was expected to reduce state anxiety and increase energetic arousal significantly more than disclosure of thoughts. Based on a randomly assigned sample of 120 men, a 3 × 2 × 2 multivariate analysis of variance indicated a significant interaction in the predicted directions. A significant interaction was also found for the 3 × 2 interaction for energetic arousal. For state anxiety means were in the predicted direction. Results indicate that verbalization of sensations is more energizing and calming than silence, while for general thought, silence is more energizing and calming than verbalization. The results suggest efficacy in reframing self-talk to quiet awareness and in communicating sensed distinctions as they emerge.

This paper identifies the leading causes for large variations in the calculated fatigue lives of the hypothetical pitch link experiment of the American Helicopter Society, conducted in cooperation with all U.S. manufacturers of military helicopters. Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) is used to show that approximately 85 percent of the variations can be attributed to only two of the five analytical steps involved and the interactions between them. These steps are the method of cycle counting and the amount of S/N curve reduction.

Multivariate analysis of variance revealed a significant relationship between student ratings and curriculum area but not between ratings and course format. The technical and practical ramifications of these findings are discussed.

Rivers as barriers to dispersal and past forest refugia are two of the hypotheses proposed to explain the patterns of biodiversity in the Atlantic Forest. It has recently been shown that possible past refugia correspond to bioclimatically different regions, so we tested whether patterns of shared distribution of bird taxa in the Atlantic Forest are 1) limited by the Doce and São Francisco rivers or 2) associated with the bioclimatically different southern and northeastern regions. We catalogued lists of forest birds from 45 locations, 36 in the Atlantic forest and nine in Amazon, and used parsimony analysis of endemicity to identify groups of shared taxa. We also compared differences between these groups by permutational multivariate analysis of variance and identified the species that best supported the resulting groups. The results showed that the distribution of forest birds is divided into two main regions in the Atlantic Forest, the first with more southern localities and the second with northeastern localities. This distributional pattern is not delimited by riverbanks, but it may be associated with bioclimatic units, surrogated by altitude, that maintain current environmental differences between two main regions on Atlantic Forest and may be related to phylogenetic histories of taxa supporting the two groups.

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this paper is to examine quality satisfaction between transactional and relationalcustomers in process e-commerce on Traveloka.com. Transactional customers are defined as the newcustomers or the customers who may remain with the firm for a short time and may demonstrate defection behavior. Relational customers represent the customers who stay longer with the firm and have a very low probability of defecting. Quality satisfaction in this study is defined as customer satisfaction with system quality, information quality, service quality, perceived control, and perceived enjoyment. Business transactions over the internet or better known by the term e-commerce is not a new phenomenon in the business world. This research is a quantitative research using descriptivestatistical analysis techniques, MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Variance), and TWO WAY ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) conducted to test the study hypothesis. The samples include 60 persons who used Traveloka.com and have experienced on it in Indonesia. Result show that relational customers more satisfy with system quality, information quality, dan service quality than transactional customers. Moreover, perceived control and perceived enjoyment strengthen qualitysatisfaction of transactional and relational customers.Keywords : Eletronic Commerce (e-commerce), Quality Satisfaction, Transactional Customers, Relational CustomersABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbandingan kepuasan kualitasantara pelanggan transaksional dan relasional dalam proses e-commerce pada Traveloka.com. Pelanggan transaksional yaitu pelanggan baru atau pelanggan yang mungkin ingat dengan perusahaan untuk waktu yang singkat dan dapat menunjukkan perilaku untuk beralih dari perusahaan.Pelanggan relasional mewakili pelanggan yang setia dengan perusahaan dan memiliki probabilitas sangat rendah untuk beralih.Kepuasan kualitas dalam penelitian ini didefinisikan sebagai kepuasan pelanggan terhadap kualitas sistem, kualitas informasi, kualitas layanan, kontrol yang dirasakan, dan kesenangan yangdirasakan. Transaksi bisnis melalui internet atau yang lebih dikenal dengan istilah e-commerce bukan menjadi suatu fenomena baru di dunia bisnis. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif menggunakan teknik analisis statistik deskriptif, MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Variance), dan TWO WAY ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) digunakan untuk menguji hipotesis penelitian. Responden dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 60 orang yaitu pelanggan yang mempunyai pengalamanmenggunakan Traveloka.com di seluruh Indonesia.Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pelanggan relasional lebih puas dengan kualitas sistem, kualitas informasi, dan kualitas layanan daripada pelanggan transaksional; kontrol yang dirasakan serta kesenangan yang dirasakan memperkuat kepuasan kualitas pelanggan relasional dan pelanggan transaksional.
