Information security and privacy on the Internet are critical issues in our society. Importantly, children and adolescents need to understand the potential risk of using the Internet. In this research, we examine factors that motivate students' Information Security Behavior on the Internet. A pilot survey of middle and junior high school students is the source of the data. This study provides a model that explains students' behavior pertaining to Information Security. A significant research finding is that students' perceived importance of Information Security plays a critical role in influencing their Information Security Behavior.

The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to determine if an educational program on pain assessment that includes both knowledge and attitude domains is more effective than a didactic educational offering in encouraging nurses' reliance on patients' self-reports of pain during assessment for pain. Twenty-two registered nurses and seven licensed practical nurses at the Tucson Veterans Affairs Medical Center participated. Group A received a lecture and watched a videotape. Group B received a lecture, watched a videotape, and participated in a group discussion on attitudes. Participants in both groups completed the Pain Management Questionnaire developed by Ferrell, Eberts, McCaffery & Grant (1991). No significant differences were found between groups with respect to results on the pain management questionnaire.
