emotion regulation strategies are considered as determinant variables on both normal and psychopathological processes. the aim of the present study was to investigate the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulties on the relationship between social anxiety symptoms and anger. a total of 171 participants (71 men, 100 women) from the city of tehran participated in this study as volunteers....

The Information Systems (IS) field has begun to focus on automatic behavior, which is not based on reason-based theory. In this study, we investigate habitual information technology (IT) use as an automatic behavior. We focus on the mood(s) that factor(s) into habitual behavior. People automatically regulate their mood positively when they recognize tense moods. We categorize moods into two gro...

To avoid tracheal wall damage or inadvertent falls of the endotracheal tube cuff pressure (Pcuff) in intubated and mechanically-ventilated patients, the authors devised a simple procedure for automatic and continuous regulation of Pcuff. The procedure, only requiring a simple aquarium air pump and conventional tubing, was first tested at the bench when applied to an intubated and ventilated lun...

This work is devoted to the development of an automated transfer switch (ATS) for 6/0.4 kV substation. The relevant due introduction automation and replacement electromechanical equipment with microprocessor devices in power systems. At lower (field) level, driven by use programmable logic controllers (PLCs) various smart sensors. possibility using modular PLC systems considered. Developed are ...

Modern urban light rail systems must deliver a frequent and regular train timetable in order to provide a good service to passengers. This paper describes how a human-centred design approach was taken to the provision of automated functionality that aims to augment human operators in one particular operational practice in the rail domain. Automatic Train Regulation (ATR) is a software tool that...

We have developed a visually based autopilot which is able to make an air vehicle automatically take off, cruise and land, while reacting appropriately to wind disturbances (head wind and tail wind). This autopilot consists of a visual control system that adjusts the thrust so as to keep the downward optic flow (OF) at a constant value. This autopilot is therefore based on an optic flow regulat...

This paper is a contribution to the theory of the infinitehorizon linear quadratic regulator (LQR) problem subject to inequality constraints on the inputs and states, extending an approach first proposed by Sznaier and Damborg [16]. A solution algorithm is presented, which requires solving a finite number of finite-dimensional positive definite quadratic programs. The constrained LQR outlined d...

Automatic control system of brain tissue temperature is theoretically studied for the brain hypothermia treatment. In order to realize human friendly control mechanism, an automatic temperature regulation system is constructed to simulate the brain hypothermia treatment, by introducing fuzzy algorithm for possible characteristic change of the patients. The brain temperature is successfully real...

BACKGROUND Self-regulatory behaviour refers to both controlled and automatic processes. When people are distracted, automatic over controlled processes prevail. This was analysed with regard to nutritional behaviour (food choices, beverage intake) in situations of low or high distraction. METHODS A self-concept Implicit Association Test (IAT) was adapted to assess the implicit associations of...
