This concluding chapter offers some guide on how to run a field study. First, researchers should think about where, when, and with whom they will run their experiment, and make sure these parameters fit the underlying idea or theory they intend to test. Second, every question in a survey should have a purpose. Researchers should be mindful that subtle features of a survey like response scales and order of questions can influence the results. Third, researchers should make sure that their implementing partner understands what it will take to conduct a research. Fourth, researchers should make an intentional decision about how, and how much, to incorporate technology into their survey. Fifth, researchers should not assume people will sign up to receive a program or service. They should find out directly whenever possible by piloting or otherwise gauging demand for their intervention.

The importance of the research comes from dealing with the problem of lack of traffic awareness, which causes accidents and the occurrence of human and material losses, and the research aims to study the role of satellite channels in forming traffic awareness among the public, and a sample was chosen from Baghdad consisting of (280) individuals, male and female, and used the questionnaire tool. To obtain the data, which included several questions, the results were analyzed statistically and several results were reached, the most important of which is that there is an interest among the public in following traffic programs at a rate of one to two hours to receive information through traffic programs and to identify and apply general rules, and it was found that there is a statistically significant correlation between the extent of follow-up. The sample is for traffic programs and the extent to which satellite channels spread traffic awareness among individuals, and there is a significant correlation between the sample's intensity of watching traffic programs and the level of obtaining information about traffic awareness from television, and there are differences between the sample averages towards the role of satellite channels in spreading traffic awareness

The aim of this pilot study is to receive funding for a larger, nationwide conducted field study involving all 16 Polytechs in New Zealand. Perceived workload, actual work hours and and job satisfaction are to be measured initially for 5 Polytech tutors working in Applied business at NMIT Nelson using self-report questionnaires and a custom time-tracker app. A model has to be developed hypothesizing relationships between tutor characteristics; aspects of the teaching context; perceived workload; satisfaction with teaching; and four aspects of tutor stress: stress from administrative activities, time pressure, students and classroom conditions, and lack of rewards and recognition.

Legal Consequences

This study aims to analyze what legal sanction and what consequences for the heirs trying to commit the murder of the inheritors in the perspective of Balinese customary law. The research method used is empirical research that is the observational and field study research in the Desa Pakraman Sukawati. Data were collected through observation. The result of the research is that the legal sanction for the heirs in perspective of Balinese customary law is a sentence of sanction given by Balinese traditional court law. The criminal matters are resolved in traditional court and it is not yet exist in the criminal code or state law. This sanction for violation of mistreatment of the heir tried to murder the inheritors occurred in Desa Pakraman Sukawati is determined by village peace judge. This is specially done by Prajuru Adat (Balinese indigenous custom village officers). The legal consequences described on Balinese customary law are based on Article 838 of the Civil Code. It states that it is one of those who has been convicted or blamed for killing or attempting to kill the inheritors, the consequence is that the inheritance is void although the heirs are entitled for inheritance. It is a principle that every person including a person who has inheritance rights of inheritance does not receive anything. This has been determined by law and it is excluded from inheritance due to inappropriateness (onwaardig) to receive inheritance.

The Middle Ages

Medieval archaeology in the sense of a field study involving controlled excavation is in its infancy in Italy. Scarcely a dozen excavations have been carried out with the recovery of information about the middle ages as their primary objective and little attention has been paid to the material remains of everyday life. It is not surprising, therefore, that in the past the only medieval pottery to receive lasting attention has been the tin-glazed ware which was valued as the forerunner of renaissance maiolica. Nevertheless, in recent years programmes of surface collecting and selective excavation have been initiated in two areas with the specific purpose of studying the middle ages. The two areas are Lazio and Apulia. In Apulia the Society of Antiquaries sponsored a survey of the Tavoliere, or Foggia Plain, reports on which are in active preparation.

The efficacy of NexGard® and NexGard Spectra® against sarcoptic mange in dogs was evaluated in a clinical field study. Skin scrapings from dogs presenting signs suggestive of sarcoptic mange were examined to confirm infestation. A total of 106 dogs were screened at eight sites in Portugal and Germany. In all, 80 dogs that had demonstrated ≥5 live Sarcoptes mites in five skin scrapings were enrolled, scored for specific clinical signs (pruritus; papules and crusts; alopecia), and allocated at random to receive either NexGard® or NexGard Spectra® twice, one month apart per label instructions. To determine efficacy, live Sarcoptes mites in five skin scrapings per dog were counted, and clinical signs were scored one month and two months after first treatment and compared to pre-treatment (baseline) values. Based on compliance, 65 dogs were determined to be evaluable cases at the end of the study. The efficacy, in terms of reduction of geometric mean live Sarcoptes mite counts, was 98.9% and 99.7% for NexGard®-treated (n = 38) and 99.6% and 100% for NexGard Spectra®-treated dogs (n = 27) at one month and two months after treatment initiation (p < 0.001, both treatments). Both treatments resulted in a significant improvement in pruritus, papules and crusts, and alopecia one month and two months after treatment initiation (p = 0.0001, both treatments). In conclusion, this field study confirms that both NexGard® and NexGard Spectra® administered twice one month apart provide an effective and safe treatment against sarcoptic mange in dogs.

We studied the effect of experimenter expectations and different instructions in a balanced placebo design. 157 subjects were randomized into a 2 × 4 factorial design. Two experimenters were led to expect placebos either to produce physiological effects or not (pro- vs. antiplacebo). All subjects except a control group received a caffeine placebo. They were either made to expect coffee, no coffee, or were in a double-blind condition. Dependent measures were blood pressure, heart rate, well-being, and a cognitive task. There was one main effect on the instruction factor (p = 0.03) with the group “told no caffeine” reporting significantly better well-being. There was one main effect on the experimenter factor with subjects instructed by experimenter “proplacebo” having higher systolic blood pressure (p = 0.008). There was one interaction with subjects instructed by experimenter “proplacebo” to receive coffee doing worse in the cognitive task than the rest. Subjects instructed by experimenter “antiplacebo” were significantly less likely to believe the experimental instruction, and that mostly if they had been instructed to receive coffee. Contrary to the literature we could not show an effect of instruction, but there was an effect of experimenters. It is likely, however, that these experimenter effects were not due to experimental manipulations, but to the difference in personalities.
