While meaningfully correlating with the feeling of joy and satisfaction with life, as indicated by numerous researches, the feeling of happiness is affected by different factors and situations.

Most theories of analogical transfer focus on similarities between the learning and transfer domains, where transfer is more likely between domains that share common surface features, similar elements, or common interpretations of structure. We suggest that characteristics of the learning instantiation alone can give rise to different levels of transfer. We propose that concreteness of the lear...

Literature and culture are two inseparable issues. When we talk about the culture, the literature can also appear unconsciously, because the culture is composed of thoughts, feelings and emotions and the styles and personal ways of society, which as a general rule, can appear in terms of principles and respectful rules.

The effects of relevant concreteness on learning and transfer were investigated. Sixth grade students learned artificial instantiations of a simple mathematical concept. Some students were presented with instantiations that communicated concreteness relevant to the to-be-learned concept, while others learned generic instantiations involving abstract symbols. Results suggest that relevant concre...

This study demonstrates that an integrated operator can benefit from cost savings, customer retention and prevention of revenue erosion by FMC migration strategy with introduction of advanced service packages. This development is driven by increasing importance of mobile network capabilities and services, as well as the lessening gap between fixed and mobile systems, in terms of technological m...

We evoke some poetical aspects of a new kind of logical truth (an inner quantum truth) embodying both physical and mathematical concepts, which can be viewed at the same time as a constructive mathematical object, as well as a pure platonic idea.
