the present study was concerned with exploring the frequency and linguistic focus of corrective feedback types given by novice and experienced female teachers working with young learners and compared it with those of elementary classes for adults. moreover, it aimed at measuring learners’ acknowledgement of teachers’ corrective feedback in the form of uptake in relation to linguistic coverage o...

abstract part one: the electrode oxidation potentials of a series of eighteen n-hydroxy compounds in aqueous solution were calculated based on a proper thermodynamic cycle. the dft method at the level of b3lyp-6-31g(d,p) was used to calculate the gas-phase free energy differences ,and the polarizable continuum model (pcm) was applied to describe the solvent and its interaction with n-hydroxy ...

Background and purpose: Borna disease virus (BDV) is a unique RNA virus with wide range of hosts. There are many similarities in behavioral disorders caused by BDV in animals and certain mental disorders in human which suggests possible etiology of these disorders. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between BDV and etiopathogenesis of psychiatric disorders, particul...

a semi-empirical mathematical model for predicting physical part of ignition delay period in the combustion of direct - injection diesel engines with swirl is developed . this model based on a single droplet evaporation model . the governing equations , namely , equations of droplet motion , heat and mass transfer were solved simultaneously using a rung-kutta step by step unmerical method . the...

a one dimensional dynamic model for a riser reactor in a fluidized bed catalytic cracking unit (fccu) for gasoil feed has been developed in two distinct conditions, one for industrial fccu and another for fccu using various frequencies of microwave energy spaced at the height of the riser reactor (fccu-mw). in addition, in order to increase the accuracy of component and bulk diffusion, instanta...

Introduction: Although humor plays an important role in improving people’s mental and physical health, empirical studies on the effectiveness of humor skills training to improve the symptoms of the patients with schizophrenia are scarce. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of humor skills training on positive and negative symptoms in male patients with chronic schizophre...
