This article proposes a general theoretical framework for understanding the concept of “class compromise” in terms of a “reverseJ” model of the relationship between the associational power of workers and the interests of capitalists: increases in working-class power adversely affect capitalist-class interests until such power crosses some intermediate threshold beyond which further increases in...

The extensive research done on the interrelationship between different social factors such as social class, gender and age and different linguistic variables has shown that these factors have important effects on the way language is used. Among these factors a special importance can be placed on age due to the role it plays in revealing different patterns of language use, such as the age-gradin...

Let $G$ be a finite group. The graph $D(G)$ is a divisibility graph of $G$. Its vertex set is the non-central conjugacy class sizes of $G$ and there is an edge between vertices $a$ and $b$ if and only if $a|b$ or $b|a$. In this paper, we investigate the structure of the divisibility graph $D(G)$ for a non-solvable group with $sigma^{ast}(G)=2$, a finite simple group $G$ that satisfies the one-p...

background & aim: repair or replacement of restorations is one of the main necessities for health promotion. however, it has its own physical, psychological and economical side effects. the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of factors causing restoration replacement or repair. methods & materials: a non probable sampling was used for this cross – sectional observational descri...

conclusions pharyngeal airway dimensions, soft palate length, thickness, and position, and hyoid position are not significantly different between skeletal class i and class ii prepubertal children. results no significant difference in the upper airway, soft palate, and hyoid variables was found between the two groups (p > 0.05) and no correlation was found between anb difference and the other v...

Video-based face recognition has attracted significant attention in many applications such as media technology, network security, human-machine interfaces, and automatic access control system in the past decade. The usual way for face recognition is based upon the grayscale image produced by combining the three color component images. In this work, we consider grayscale image as well as color s...

in order to study the effect of elevation on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the humid forests of guilan shafaroud, series 17, 16 and 7 were selected that fall in to three height classes; class 1 (‏less than 500 m), class 2 (‏500 – 1000 m) and class 3 (‏1000 – 1600 m). in height class 1, 2 and 3 sample plots were determined as 4, 15 and 20 respectively and each sample plot was 0...

As a novel performance, methanol gas conversion to dimethoxymethane (DMM) in one-step based on Fe-Mo-O (iron molybdate mixed oxides) catalysts with high surface area fabricated by metal organic frameworks (MOFs) precursors was improved. For this approach, at first, Fe(III) precursors (iron (III) 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (MIL-100 (Fe) and iron terephthalate (MOF-...

background: the purpose of this study was to assess the energy and nutritional intakes of female aerobic athletes in two different social - economic classes.   methods: the subjects were 99 female aerobic athletes aged between 15 to 50 years old. the dietary and energy intakes were based on 2 day 24 hours food recall. the demographic details were assessed by anthropometric measurements includin...
