Many developers, especially beginners, often find it difficult to realize and understand the benefits and advantages of using abstract concepts specific to the C# language, like delegates. C# doesn't help matters by allowing us to declare field-like events which are automatically backed by a delegate variable at the same name. Another source of confusion is due to the overloading of the term “delegate”. Sometimes it is used to mean a delegate type, in other cases it can be used to mean an instance of a delegate type. We shall use “delegate type” and “delegate instance” to distinguish between them, and “delegate” when we are talking about the whole topic in a general sense. In this context, the present paper aims to clarify all these aspects related to the use of delegate in the specific context, providing concrete examples in this respect. Moreover, this paper presents the main benefits of using delegates in C# language.

Supervisors need to be able to delegate work. They may not delegate due to lack of trust in subordinates, the feeling that they can do tasks better, new/old employees not being fully trained, a need to dominate, and/or fear that their bosses will think they are lazy. Employees may engage in one or more games to avoid delegated work: whine, miss deadlines, do incomplete or sloppy work, be unavailable, and/or appear busy. To delegate properly, supervisors should ensure that all employees are properly trained; ignore whining; establish deadlines; schedule follow-up meetings; communicate fully; and, possibly, use discipline.

As you advance in your career, you will find that more and more often, you have to delegate specific tasks, or even entire projects, to other people. In fact, being able to delegate well is one of the hallmarks of a good leader. Unfortunately, delegation is a skill not often taught in school. Here are some tips to help you delegate better and accomplish more. Choose wisely. Give careful thought to which projects, or portions of projects, are suitable for delegation. You want something big enough to make a difference yet small enough that the other person can handle it. If you have options, think carefully about to whom you will delegate this task. If it is a high-profile, crucial task, you will want to pick someone who has the skills and motivation to do it well. If it's a smaller, less visible project, you may be able to choose

Potentially stressful features of the neonatal intensive care environment, including factors such as continuous high-intensity noise and bright light, have generated concern. Some neonatal researchers have speculated that the intensive care nursery constitutes a source of sensory deprivation, whereas others have suggested that the preterm infant is overestimulated or experiences an inappropriate pattern, rather than an excessive amount, of stimulation. This article examines some of the sources of stress in the neonatal intensive care unit.

ABSTRACT The oft‐replicated risky‐shift phenomenon in decision‐making groups was examined under conditions where one or all of the group members expected to serve as a delegate representing and defending their group's decisions in meetings with delegates from other groups. Three separate delegate conditions and a control were employed. In two of the conditions a single delegate was selected–designated by the group in one case and chosen at random in the other. In a third condition, all members expected to serve as delegates. The control condition consisted of the standard group discussion‐to‐consensus without any delegate manipulation. No mean differences in magnitude of risky shift between conditions were obtained. An examination of the two single‐delegate conditions revealed other kinds of differences. Whereas the behavior of the delegate selected randomly appeared to have little effect on the size of the risky shift, this was not the case for the group‐designated delegate. Correlational analyses indicated that the latter's influence and communication input and output were related to risky‐shift magnitude.
