The purpose of the present study is to examine the effects of ego depletion on arousal of elite Iranian swimmers. The sample comprised elite swimmers invited to the national swimming team as focused and semi focused (36 subjects). The research design was as pre- and post-test—in two phases of ego depletion conditions and the lack of ego depletion conditions in two experimental and control...

ὑμετέρης γενεῆς τε καὶ αἵματος εὔχομαι εἶναι (Eudocia's Laudes Antiochiae ; cf. Il . 6.211, 20.241). 1 The article argues that in Eudocia's fifth-century Martyrdom of St Cyprian – the only surviving Greek verse paraphrase a hagiography certain Odyssean lexical items and intertexts may be thematically grouped. A new category, ‘diatext’, is introduced to describe this function Odyssey as an inter...

In this paper, we explored the super-ego ofpatients with coronary artery disease. Research results have confirmed the initial hypothesis that a significant number of patients with coronary artery disease has rigorous super-ego. Among patients with coronary artery disease (N=50), and control group (N=50), we have found significant differences in the quality of super-ego and ego attitude towards ...

To date, few studies have sought to investigate the effects of child maltreatment and processes influencing maladaptation and resilience in Latino children. In the current investigation, multiple aspects of functioning, personal resources, and relationship features were examined in school-age maltreated and nonmaltreated Latino children. Maltreated Latino children were found to have fewer areas...

Previous studies of the long-term effects of maternal postpartum depression (PPD) on child development have mostly focused on a limited set of outcomes, and have often not controlled for risk factors associated with maternal depression. The present study compared children of postpartum depressed mothers (n = 29) with children from a community sample (n = 113) in terms of a broad range of develo...

This paper examines the structural distinctions made in contemporary ego state theory. Freud consciously avoided placing boundaries between the superego, ego and id, whilst Berne openly attacked the problem of concretely delineating the three psychic subsystems. As this paper unfolds it will become apparent that descriptively Berne achieved success, yet structurally he had major problems. INTRO...

Caenorhabditis elegans EGO-1, a putative cellular RNA-directed RNA polymerase, promotes several aspects of germline development, including proliferation, meiosis, and gametogenesis, and ensures a robust response to RNA interference. In C. elegans, GLP-1/Notch signaling from the somatic gonad maintains a population of proliferating germ cells, while entry of germ cells into meiosis is triggered ...

RÉSUMÉ. Cet article présente une méthode incrémentale d’apprentissage des profils dans les systèmes de filtrage d’information. Cette méthode est basée sur le principe de renforcement. L’idée de base consiste à construire, à chaque arrivée d’un document pertinent, un profil " provisoire " permettant de sélectionner le document en question avec un score " fort ", puis intégrer ce profil, grâce à ...

A green and convenient méthode for the synthesis of  a variety of xanthene derivatives by condensation reaction between aldehydes and β-naphthol or dimedone in an micellar solution of sodium dodecylphosphonate is described. This method offers several advantages, such as using of a cheap and environmentally benign reaction media, low loadings of sodium dodecylphosphonate as catalyst and...
