title: Book selection behavior in the physical library: implications for ebook collections

authors: Hinze, Annika

subjects: digital libraries

abstract: Little is known about how readers select books, whether they be print books or ebooks. In this paper we present a study of how people select physical books from academic library shelves. We use the insights gained into book selection behavior to make suggestions for the design of ebook-based digital libraries in order to better facilitate book selection behavior.

title: A critical examination of the legal implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) based technologies in New Zealand workplaces.

authors: Tumai, William Joseph

subjects: Artificial Intelligence Regulation

abstract: A wide range of technology includes artificial intelligence (AI). We focus on "predictive algorithms, which include machine learning algorithms. For much regulatory purpose, the overall concept of a "predictive algorithm" covers a useful subset of algorithms called the "AI" in the recent public discourse. The thesis fulfills the purpose of the study to explore the expectations of current leaders as the leadership position changes as AI is implemented at work. The thesis will deepen AI's understanding of the impact of AI on future leadership by addressing these hypotheses. This thesis study employed a qualitative approach, and data from hypothetically model based but related approaches, use and examples to interview study structures of employees, such as architecture students and leaders in a technology organisation, were the demographic targets for detailed answers based on the questionnaire. This judgment explains that qualitative research makes it possible for people to understand patterns and phenomena by words instead of numbers. The benefits presented and the concerns posed by government predictive algorithms are important to take into account. It is also important, however, not to compare them with perfect decision-makers in human beings. There are a number of concerns and opportunities with the ever-greater use and increasing power and complexity of these tools. In order that the proposals are developed, or the new predictive algorithms are procured, New Zealand agencies must take or develop internal processes.

title: The adaptation of cognitive behavioural therapy for adult Maori clients with depression: A pilot study

authors: Bennett, Simon T.

subjects: Maori

abstract: A semistructured cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) programme for depression was adapted for use with Maori adult clients with depression. Adaptations were developed in consultation with an advisory group consisting of Maori clinical psychologists and kaumatua with experience working in mental health services. The programme was piloted with 2 participants who were clients of a Maori mental health service. The programme builds on a more traditional CBT treatment programme by integrating concepts such as whakatauki, whanaungatanga, whanau involvement, and whakapapa into the therapeutic context. Despite limitations the results demonstrate considerable promise. Depressive symptoms increased substantially in both cases and both clients reflected positively on the adaptations incorporated into therapy.
