This study examined how high school seniors construct decision-making strategies for choosing a college to attend. To comprehend their decision-making strategies, we chose to examine this process through the theoretical lens of bounded rationality, which brings to light the complexity in constructing a college choice decision-making strategy because students make their college selections with relatively limited information and computational abilities. Using data from the College Board's Admitted Student Questionnaire Plus(TM) (ASQ Plus(TM)) survey for the 2003-2004 school year, 20,722 responses from students admitted to liberal arts colleges in the United States were used to examine college decision-making strategies.

The Supreme Court has held that an individual relinquishes any Fourth Amendment interest in information that he or she voluntarily discloses to a third party. Known as the "Third Party Doctrine," this controversial rule is increasingly problematic in an age where a large proportion of personal communications and transactions are carried out over the Internet. Internet users expose virtually all of the information they generate online-e-mails, web-surfing histories, search terms, and more-to online service providers. As such, many scholars have assumed that Internet information will be unprotected by the Fourth Amendment. Yet the information disclosed to these online third parties is generally not exposed to human beings at all; rather, it is processed entirely by automated equipment. Ne...

Activity-based costing is rapidly emerging as the best approach for providing managers with accurate and relevant information about the cost of a company's products, services, and customers. An activity-based approach to cost information in financial institutions is conceptually straightforward and intuitively understandable. It is a powerful methodology because it provides accurate and relevant cost information as a guide for making profitable decisions. It is a holistic approach in that it captures not only organizational profitability, but also customer and product profitability as well. ABC provides an efficient way to organize the collection, processing, and reporting of cost information that supports decision making and strategy formulation. It yields accurate and relevant inform...

Karsten and Pennink notice a tension between the teachings of total quality management (TQM) and actual management practices. Zhao and Bryar contend that the management of knowledge in businesses is an important and necessary factor for organisational survival. Dooley et al. observe that theories of neural networks can be incorporated into theories concerning individual cognition. On Tavana et al.'s reading, AHP assesses the consistency of the manager's pairwise comparisons. Vinni analyzes the suitability of TQM for public organizations and identifies the preconditions that have to be met in order to gain success in implementing TQM.

Specifically, it is argued that as a consequence of this radically changed conception of the relation between the natural and the artificial, the figure of the human, the crux as it were of the modern opposition between physis and techne, is dispensed with, possibly even overcome, in effect leading us towards a "posthuman" form of existence.1 This essay will examine the latter claim in light of the way nature, and the human body in particular, has been understood conceptually and historically in technological terms, particularly with reference to technological artefacts. Put briefly, in Ancient Greek thought (thus for example in Aristotle's Physics), technology, or more precisely speaking techne, was restricted to the realm of means oriented towards ends, with ends however understood t...
