Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) disproportionately effects hematologic cancers when compared to solid tumor malignancies. Self-management of CRF has received increasing attention in solid tumor cancers, however, fatigue self-management in hematologic cancers has received significantly less systematic investigation.

Spectral analysis of the time-varying horizontal magnetic and electric field components yields the magnetotelluric (MT) impedance tensor. This frequency dependent 2x2 complex tensor can be examined for details which axe diagnostic of the electrical conductivity distribution in the Earth within the relevant (frequency dependent) inductive scale length of the surface...
Research studies indicated that differences in cognitive
processing style influence individual behavior on various types of
tasks. This study investigated the effect of the cognitive style
dimension, field independence-dependence, on the metacognitive
functioning of individuals involved in three problem tasks which
varied in inherent structure.
Twenty-six subjects were randomly selected...
