this paper aims at studying the effects of work/family conflict and family/ work conflict as a result of work alienation. some theories of goffman, duxbury and higgins, kirchmeyer and cohen, merton, inglehart and faunce are applied in the study. the research is conducted through a survey method. stratified random sampling has been used for selection of the samples. main data collection method f...

near-infrared spectroscopy (nirs) is a spectroscopic method that uses the near-infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. typical applications include medical and physiological diagnostics. nirs can be used for non-invasive assessment of brain function through the intact skull in human subjects by detecting changes in blood hemoglobin concentrations associated with neural activity, e.g., ...

our aim in this paper is to introduce the notion of fuzzy soft near-subtraction semigroupsand fuzzy soft ideals of near-subtraction semigroups. we discuss some important properties of these new fuzzy algebraic structure and investigate some examples and counter examples.

BACKGROUND The near work and outdoor activity are the most important environmental risk factors for myopia. However, data from Chinese rural children are relatively rare and remain controversial. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship of both near work and outdoor activities with refractive error in rural children in China. METHODS In this cross-sectional study,...

PURPOSE To examine the association of time spent in near work and reading with spherical equivalent refraction (SER) in a population-based sample of 12-year-old Australian schoolchildren. METHODS Data on the time spent in near-work or outdoor activities per week and estimates for the duration of continuous reading and reading distances, were collected in questionnaires (2353 participants, 75....

PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of two non-surgical interventions of vision improvement in children. METHODS A prospective, randomized, pilot study to compare fogging method and the use of head mounted 3D display. Subjects were children, between 5 to 15 years old, with normal best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and up to -3D myopia. Subjects played a video game as near point work, and receiv...

The primary objective of the work-in-progress reported here is to compare near-surface imaging results using ultra-shallow (upper 3 m) seismic-reflection techniques and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) at an alluvial site near Great Bend, Kansas. Although various seismic and GPR surveys have been used for near-surface imaging, little i s known about how the two techniques might work in concert fo...
