This is a study of risk perception in relation to New Age (NA) beliefs, including traditional folk superstition and belief in paranormal phenomena, as well as use of alternative healing practices. Data were also obtained on trust dimensions and on personality and psychopathology variables, as well as religious involvement. It was found that four factors accounted for the investigated NA beliefs...

The main purpose of this study was to further the understanding of schizotypy by investigating which of two schizotypy models best describes the construct. The quasi-dimensional model views schizotypy as related to psychological ill-health, whereas the fully dimensional model views schizotypy as fundamentally neutral. A schizotypy measure, the Oxford–Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experien...

SERGEY A. MELIKHOV and DUŠAN REPOVŠ ABSTRACT We prove that k-quasi-isotopy implies (k + 1)-cobordism of Cochran–Orr, leading to k-quasi-isotopy invariance of Cochran's derived invariants β i , i ≤ k, and Milnor's ¯ µ-invariants of length ≤ 2k + 3. Secondly, k-quasi-isotopic links cannot be distinguished by any Vassiliev invariant of type ≤ k which is well-defined up to PL isotopy, where type ≤ ...

in this paper, we introduce the notion of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q_{k})− fuzzy subnear-ring which is a generalization of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q)−fuzzy subnear-ring. we have given examples which are ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q_{k})−fuzzy ideals but they are not ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q)−fuzzy ideals. we have also introduced the notions of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ ...

If D is a digraph, then   K V D  is a quasi-kernel of D if   D K is discrete and for each   y V D K   there is x K  such that the directed distance from y to x is less than three. We give formulae for the number of quasi-kernels and for the number of minimal quasi-kernels of oriented paths and cycles.

We define interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-ideals, interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-quasi-ideals, interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-bi-ideals and characterize k-regular and k-intra regular hemirings by the properties of interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-ideals, interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-quasi-ideals and interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-bi-ideals. 2010 mathematics subject classification: 16Y60 • ...
