Caudal septoplasty, a literature review.

Background: Caudal septal deviation accounts for around five percent of patients with septal deviations that require surgery. The caudal septum provides support to the nasal tip and the deviations can narrow the nasal airway and lead to marked asymmetry in nostril shape. Over-resection of this area can compromise the structural support leading to tip collapse or saddle nose deformity.

Investigating science teachers' intention to adopt virtual reality through the integration of diffusion of innovation theory and theory of planned behaviour: the moderating role of perceived skills readiness.

This study contributes to the extant literature on instructional technology by investigating the relationships between the social and personal factors and behavioral intention to use virtual reality. Moreover, the current study examined the links between perceived characteristics of virtual reality and attitude and the moderating role that can be played by perceived skills readiness between those links. Inspired by the Theory of Planned Behaviour and Diffusion of Innovation Theory, a set of hypotheses was formed to test the proposed relationships using structural equation modeling partial least square to a sample of 171 science teachers in Oman.
