Although this notion may seem closer to stereotypes of art than science, the...

the current study aimed to define some factors contributing to implicit attitude formation mainly in the social interaction context. an agent-based computer simulation of a society including autonomous agents and an attitude object was used to track the implicit attitude progress towards the object. the society could simulate the autonomic behaviors. we provided a complex adaptive system and ob...

followership is a developing paradigm in organizational behavior which focusesmainly on followers. the goal of this study is to explore follower’s implicitfollowership theories (ifts) which entail an analysis of follower’s views andperception about followership. for this purpose, based on a phenomenologicalapproach, semi-structured interviews with employees of large public and privateorganizati...

Due to improvements in computational resources, interest has recently increased in using implicit scheme for solving flow equations on 3D unstructured grids. However, most of the implicit schemes produce greater numerical diffusion error than their corresponding explicit schemes. This stems from the fact that in linearizing implicit fluxes, it is conventional to replace the Jacobian matrix in t...

Nowadays, it is a deal of big significance to make our teaching innovative and enjoyable for the students. One ways implement online learning games in ESL classes. There necessity develop language different contexts, but some students are becoming successful only under certain conditions. The way with proceed building connections between contexts using scaffolding, reflecting upon students` pri...
