AIM The effects of three emotion regulation strategies that targeted smoking-related thoughts were compared on outcomes relevant to smoking cessation. METHOD Daily smokers applied defusion (n = 25), reappraisal (n = 25) or suppression (n = 23) to thoughts associated with smoking during a cue-induced craving procedure. Smoking behaviour, approach/avoidance behavioural bias, and subjective meas...

This study aims to analyze the influence of profitability, transfer pricing, and liquidity on tax avoidance in companies manufacturing sector listed Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) 2017-2019. The data analysis technique is panel regression using STATA Ver. 16. population this IDX. sampling used was purposive produced 31 samples with period 2017-2019 so there were 93 sample units. results showed ...

Abs t r ac t A control strategy for sensor-based collision avoidance and the supporting experimental results are reported in this paper. The real-time arm control software cc)ntinuously monitors the object clistance measured by the proximity sensors. When this distance is less than a preset threshold, the collision avoidance control acticm is initiated to inhibit motion towards the object and t...

Compared with the space fixed feature of traditional wireless sensor network (WSN), mobile WSN has better robustness and adaptability in unknown environment, so that it is always applied in the research of target tracking. In order to reach the target, the nodes group should find a self-adaptive method to avoid the obstacles together in their moving directions. Previous methods, which were base...

This study was designed to evaluate the traditional advice to headache sufferers to avoid all triggers ('Avoidance'), and a novel approach to trigger management (Learning to Cope with Triggers - 'LCT') that included graduated exposure to selected triggers to promote desensitization. Individuals (84F, 43M) with migraine and/or tension-type headache were assigned randomly to one of four groups: W...

This paper researches three specific strategies of union avoidance. The strategies researched focus on union avoidance from a non-union workplace as opposed to strategies of avoidance in a pre-existing labormanagement environment. This paper addresses a number of questions regarding the use of union avoidance strategies. First, from a management perspective, what is the true measure of effectiv...

A new approach of using multi-agent and robot systems in terms of transport and logistics in industrial environments is defined. The robot system based on KAMARA principles described in the paper „The Distributed Control Architecture KAMARA“ of this book. A theoretic-based strategy for agent modelling is used to determine the information that is necessary for collision avoidance in the two-arm ...

There have been many decision support systems that provide advice for resolving disputes. However, little effort has been devoted to dispute avoidance. Through the use of the intelligent eGanges shell, this work expands on interest-based negotiation support systems, to develop dispute avoidance ontologies and software for negotiation planning systems. It is suggested that intelligent negotiatio...

In this paper we present a solution for formation flight and formation reconfiguration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Based on a virtual leader approach, combined with an extended local potential field, the method is universal applicable by driving the vehicle’s auto pilot. The solution is verified, using a group of UAVs based on a simplified small-scale helicopter, which is simulated in M...

Navigation and collision avoidance are major areas of research in mobile robotics that involve varying degrees of uncertainty. In general, the problem consists of achieving sensor based motion control of a mobile robot among obstacles in structured and/or unstructured environments with collision-free motion as the priority. A fuzzy logic based intelligent control strategy has been developed her...
