Individuals differ in the degree to which they tend to habitually accept their emotions and thoughts without judging them-a process here referred to as habitual acceptance. Acceptance has been linked with greater psychological health, which we propose may be due to the role acceptance plays in negative emotional responses to stressors: acceptance helps keep individuals from reacting to-and thus...

compare the effect of different ceramic thicknesses on degree of conversion (dc) of 3 light-cured resin cements. methods: in this experimental in-vitro study, the degree of conversion of three light-cured resin cements, variolink veneer (ivoclar, liechtenstein), relyx veneer (3m espe, usa) and choice2 (bisco, usa) were evaluated beneath feldespatic ceramic discs (vita vmk master) with a same sh...

statement of problem: for many years, application of the composite restoration with a thickness less than 2 mm for achieving the minimum polymerization contraction and stress has been accepted as a principle. but through the recent development in dental material a group of resin based composites (rbcs) called bulk fill is introduced whose producers claim the possibility of achieving a good rest...

Background: National suicide rates are relatively stable over long periods but differ considerably from one another. Considering that the acceptance of suicide motives in the general population might be associated with national suicide rates, a multi-centre survey on this topic was planned by the Vienna Research Group in Transcultural Psychiatry.

The first and second Zagreb indices of a graph are equal, respectively, to the sum of squares of the vertex degrees, and the sum of the products of the degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices. We now consider analogous graph invariants, based on the second degrees of vertices (number of their second neighbors), called leap Zagreb indices. A number of their basic properties is established.
