ôbjective: âpproximately 66-80%of graduate students experience statistics anxiety and some researchers propose that many students identify statistics courses as the most anxiety-inducing courses in their academic curriculums. âs such, it is likely that statistics anxiety is, in part, responsible for many students delaying enrollment in these courses for as long as possible. this paper proposes ...

in india, over the last decade, a series of stewardship failures in the health system, particularly in the medical profession, have led to a massive erosion of trust in these institutions. in many low- and middle-income countries (lmics), the situation is similar and has reached crisis proportions; this crisis requires urgent attention. this paper draws on the insights from the recent developme...

during the design and development of truck cabins, the safety of the driver and the front seat passenger in an accident is an important task and should be considered. the cab must be designed in such a way that in an accident a sufficient survival space is guaranteed. the aim of this study is to investigate the behavior of iran khodro (ikco) 2624 truck subjected to a complex crash test accordin...

We study the role of energy conversion in phase regulation of frequency entrainment. For an open dynamical system that interacts with its environment, energy conversion in the system is the key to a wide variety of nonlinear phenomena including frequency entrainment. In this paper, using the standard notion of energy, we study the phenomena of frequency entrainment by periodic forces in two dif...

background substance use and affective disorders frequently co-occur, but the role of affective dysregulation in addiction is often overlooked. there is evidence shows that substance – dependent individuals have more problems in regulating their emotions. objectives this study compared two commonly used emotional regulation strategies, cognitive reappraisal and suppression, in opioids and metha...

Flexibility in self-regulatory behaviors has proved to be an important quality for adjusting to stressful life events and requires individuals to have a diverse repertoire of emotion regulation abilities. However, the most commonly used emotion regulation questionnaires assess frequency of behavior rather than ability, with little evidence linking these measures to observable capacity to enact ...

With increasing penetration of wind power into the power system, wind power participation in frequency regulation is regarded as a beneficial strategy to improve the dynamic frequency response characteristics of power systems. The traditional power system frequency response (SFR) model, which only includes synchronous generators, is no longer suitable for power systems with high penetrated wind...
