Perceived risk and trust associated with purchasing at electronic marketplaces

Understanding consumer behaviour is of vital importance to consumer-oriented e-business models today. In this paper, we study the relationships between consumer perceptions of risk and trust and the attitude towards purchasing at a consumer-to-consumer electronic marketplace (EM). Typical for EM settings is that consumer behaviour is subject to perceptions of the selling party as well as of the institutional structures of the intermediary that is operating the EM. Building upon the well-established literature of trust, we consider the concepts of intermediary trust and seller trust. We extend this categorisation by introducing the concepts of intermediary risk and seller risk. We developed measurement instruments for intermediary risk and seller risk. All measurement scales have acceptable alphas and are unidimensional. An empirical study is conducted to explore the relationships between the risk and trust types and consumer purchase attitude. The results reveal significant, direct effects of seller trust and seller risk. Second-order effects of intermediary trust and intermediary risk are investigated and reported. The paper concludes with general observations and recommendations for research and practice.

Entropy Optimization Models with Convex Constraints

In this paper, we study the minimum cross-entropy optimization problem subject to a general class of convex constraints. Using a simple geometric inequality and the conjugate inequality we demonstrate how to directly construct a "partial" geometric dual program which allows us to apply the dual perturbation method to derive the strong duality theorem and a dual-to-primal conversion formula. This approach generalizes the previous results of linearly, quadratically, and entropically constrained cross-entropy optimization problems and provides a platform for using general purpose optimizers to generate ε-optimal solution pair to the problem.

进行了ＰＡＡ（ＰｏｌｙａｃｒｙｌｉｃＡｃｉｄ）－ＰＳＦ（Ｐｏｌｙｓｕｌｆｏｎｅ）交联复合膜的制备，研究了交联剂、添加剂对膜性能的影响，并通过扫描电镜观察了膜的断面结构．研究了ＰＡＡ－ＰＳＦ交联复合膜对低浓度有机醇类水溶液反渗透分离性能．发现对于１０００×１０－６乙醇水溶液截留率达到６６．２％，透过流束可达０．９×１０－６（ｍ３·ｍ－２·ｓ－１）．随醇的分子量的增加，截留率不断上升，对戊醇的截留率达９４．３％，而透过流束则保持相对稳定．对不同结构醇类的分离性能研究表明，截留率存在有：ｔｅｒｔ－＞ｓｅｃ－＞ｉｓｏ－＞ｎ－的规律．     

Formation Mechanism of MoO3-Doped YSr2Cu3Oy Using the Citrate Process

The formation mechanism of the synthesis of MoO₃-doped YSr₂Cu₃O _y powders using the citrate process was investigated. It was shown that the precursor phase (Sr_{1- x} Y _x )₁₄Cu₂₄O₄₁ played a crucial role in forming the superconducting phase. It was found that the precursor phase (Sr_{1- x} Y _x )₁₄Cu₂₄O₄₁ interacted with water and decomposed when it was heavily milled and heated.     

Progress in the study of mechanism of fetal scarless wound healing

From January 1987 to December 1993, 426 patients with lung cancer were operated in our hospital, among which 159 patients were diagnosed postoperatively to be N2 disease by pathology including 81 central type and 78 peripheral type lung cancer. Radical operations were performed on 135 cases, palliative operations on 24 cases. Follow up study: one-year survival rate was 71.7%, three-year survival rate 29.0% and five-year survival rate 21.7%. The main factors affecting operative results are tumor cell type, the number and location of metastatic lymph nodes and the thoroughness of dissection. Tumor staging, except T4 tumor is not a main factor influencing prognosis. The indications of operation performed on N2 lung cancer and the necessity of extensive nodal exenteration are also discussed in this article. We consider extensive hilar and mediastinal nodal exenteration necessary in order to achieve radical resection and good prognosis.
