The multi physiological parameter monitoring system based on windows system is developed， which is integrated in lower limb rehabilitation and can monitor and display patient' s physiological signal. The physiological parameters sensors can detect the human physiological signals and pass the signals to signalchip. Finally the physiological signal can be transmitted to principal computer to diaplay by serial port communication. The design is used to create a hardware and software system platform for the detection of ECG， blood pressure， blood oxygen， temperature，and other parameters of the body. It is a practical and stable system after testing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Despite evidence that monitoring domestic electricity usage can reduce consumption, there is currently little information on what factors motivate people to monitor their consumption. The present research used an augmented version of the theory of planned behavior as a framework for understanding householders' intentions. Participants ( N = 346) completed a questionnaire measuring their beliefs about electricity use and monitoring consumption, their environmental behavior, and concern about climate change. Regression revealed that the primary predictors of intentions to monitor consumption were perceived behavioral control, attitudes toward monitoring, past behavior, descriptive, and subjective norms. In addition, we developed a modified home electricity monitor that legged when participants looked at their consumption. A subset of participants ( n = 38) were given a monitor for three months. Participants looked at the monitor relatively frequently during the first week but usage rapidly declined. There was, however, some evidence that participants found the monitor beneficial.
