many pieces of research have investigated the environmental variable including environmental beliefs, values, attitudes, knowledge, and behaviors among iranian people, but their coverage has not gone beyond a few provinces. this research investigates the status of iranian's environmental values (in micro and macro level) in national level and gone beyond description by targeting explanatio...

Introduction: One of the main concerns in administration of radiotracers, especially in therapeutic arm, is the amount of delivered dose to the different organs. Individual variations of anatomy, physiology and underlying pathology in the patients lead to alteration of administered activity. In the current study we preclinically applied internal dosimetry using an animal mod...

The Shapley value is a central notion defining a rational way to share the total worth of a cooperative game among players. We address a general framework leading to applications to games with communication graphs, where the feasible coalitions form a poset whose all maximal chains have the same length. Considering a new way to define the symmetry among players, we propose an axiomatization of ...

This paper proposes a context‐minimal range of alternative regression models that is used to generate a range of alternative estimates. If the range of estimates for a regression coefficient excludes zero, the sign of the coefficient is judged to be sturdy. The proposed measure of sturdiness is the s‐value, which is the average of the minimum and maximum of the estimates divided by their dif...

λ(n) := (−1). So λ(1) = λ(4) = λ(6) = λ(9) = λ(10) = 1 and λ(2) = λ(5) = λ(7) = λ(8) = −1. In particular, λ(p) = −1 for any prime p. It is well-known (e.g. See §22.10 of [7]) that Ω is completely additive, i.e, Ω(mn) = Ω(m) + Ω(n) for any m and n and hence λ is completely multiplicative, i.e., λ(mn) = λ(m)λ(n) for all m,n ∈ N. It is interesting to note that on the set of square-free positive in...

The coefficients of K. Goldberg in the infinite series for \o$(exey) for noncommuting x and y are computed as far as words of length twenty.

Does a dramatic drop in crime lead to an increase in property values? To date, the literature on how crime influences property values has focused solely within a single metropolitan area and has been limited primarily to cross-sectional analysis. In this study we exploit the dramatic, nationwide decrease in crime that occurred in the 1990s to examine the relationship between changes in crime ra...
