Some Issues in Gauge Mediation

If all of the moduli vary on the scale Mp, then all terms here are of the same order. O(1) effects in the Kahler potential can stabilize the moduli, while the −3|W | term can cancel the cosmological constant[1]. This is not the case if one has a low scale of supersymmetry breaking. The term −3|W | above is then simply too small to cancel the cosmological constant, unless there are some other in...

Addressing Issues in Foundational Ontology Mediation

An approach in achieving semantic interoperability among heterogeneous systems is to offer infrastructure to assist with linking and integration using a foundational ontology. Due to the creation of multiple foundational ontologies, this also means linking and integrating those ones. In order to achieve this, we have selected the widely used foundational ontologies DOLCE, BFO, and GFO, and thei...

I-14: Ethical Issues in Sex Selection and Family Balancing

Sex selection for non-medical reasons is a major controversy in around the world. Here in this paper, we presented the ethical arguments about sex selection for non-medical reasons and discuss about them in Islamic context. Significant arguments about sex selection relate to sexism and sex discrimination, sex disproportion, human dignity, playing God, psychological pressure on unselected childr...

Family incivility and job performance: a moderated mediation model of psychological distress and core self-evaluation.

This study extends the stress literature by exploring the relationship between family incivility and job performance. We examine whether psychological distress mediates the link between family incivility and job performance. We also investigate how core self-evaluation might moderate this mediated relationship. Data from a 2-wave study indicate that psychological distress mediates the relations...
