In diesem Buch wird der Zusammenhang zwischen sozialer Teilhabe und Mobilität auf Basis theoretischer Grundlagen und Erfahrungen aus einem Reallabor in der Region Hannover dargestellt und mithilfe von quantitativer und qualitativer Empirie untersucht. Zudem werden neu entwickelte Planungsinstrumente, wie ein Index zur Quantifizierung von Mobilitätsoptionen sowie ein durch einen sozialen Baustein erweitertes Verkehrsnachfragemodell, vorgestellt. Mobilitätsbezogene Maßnahmen zur Steigerung sozialer Teilhabe werden auf Basis der Empirie entwickelt, im Reallabor erprobt sowie mithilfe eines hierfür konzipierten Bewertungssystems beurteilt.

Why do we need more questionnaires to measure aspects of spirituality/religiosity when we already have so many well-tried instruments in use? One answer is that research in this field is growing and that new research questions continuously do arise. Several of these new questions cannot be easily answered with the instruments designed for previous questions. The field is expanding and, consequently, the research topics. Meanwhile several multidimensional instruments were developed which cover existential, prosocial, religious and non-religious forms of spirituality, hope, peace and trust—and several more. The ‘disadvantage’ of these instruments is the fact that some are conceptually broad and often rather unspecific, but they might be suited quite well for culturally and spiritually diverse populations when the intention is to compare such diverse groups. This is the reason why more research on new instruments is needed as can be found in this Special Issue, and to stimulate a critical debate about their pros and cons.
Primate Anatomy synthesizes the taxonomy, anatomy, physiology, and genomics of extant primates, including humans. It takes a holistic approach to describing primate skeletal, muscular, and organ structure and function. This book provides the tools to understanding the fundamentals and state of the science of primatology. Now in its fourth edition, this work introduces its audience to the history and objectives of the field of primatology. It enumerates and profiles extant primates before delving into detailed descriptions of primate skulls, brains, teeth, skeletons, musculature, organs, blood groups, reproduction, and development. The book highlights recent advances in primate genomics, incl...
