Personality, Presence, And The Virtual Self: A Five-Factor Model Approach To Behavioral Analysis Within A Virtual Environment, Michael Patrick Mccreery
UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones
For several decades, researchers have explored the existence of the virtual self, or digital embodiment of self found within an avatar.

However, little is known with regard to whether these characteristics do indeed impact behavioral outcomes. For this reason, this study employed an observational assessment method …

Teacher Gesture In A Post-Secondary English As A Second Language Classroom: A Sociocultural Approach, Natalie Hudson

Who Calls The Shots In Dining Customer Service, Kendi Root
UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones
Introduction:
Americans have become impatient with poor dining service standards. Some believe a depressed economy, lack of skilled labor, and even bad customers have contributed to a new epidemic (Kim & Chen, 2010). Bottom line, most paying customers probably prefer a pleasant service staff to an unpleasant one. Service staff with pleasant personalities and positive attitudes impact the customer experience and overall satisfaction (Ryan & Ployhart, 2003; Barrash, & Costen, 2008). Grandey in 2003 coined this “QSD” or quality service delivery.
Case Synopsis:
The case study depicts a critical service incident with a dining service encounter in an upscale, full …
