Background: In a world where the phenomenon of job loss is spreading rapidly, the desire to invest continuously in a protean career orientation which will lead to saving human, social and psychological capital, is essential. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of Schein theory based counseling and constructivist counseling on the orientation of protean ...

Properties of light–harvesting (LH) pigment–protein complexes are strongly influenced by interactions with environment. Some of these interactions could be modeled by different types of static disorder. Slow fluctuations of bacteriochlorophyll’s dipole moment orientations represent one possible type of static disorder in B850 ring from LH2 complex of purple bacteria. This type of static disorde...

Disulfide cross-linked oligonucleotides, which connect two different sequences of DNA strands, have been synthesized and characterized. Two double helices connected by two different cross-linked oligonucleotides can be arranged in both parallel and antiparallel orientations by addition of the specific complementary strands.

patriotism and nationalism make up the two sides of the spectrum of national attachment; but with different meanings, tendencies, and outcomes. this article, based on the current theories about national attachment, tries to study this subject from a different point of view. the main goal of this article is to explain national attachment in the context of the positive feeling of people toward th...

To get a mole of a gas, it is necessary to calculate the intermolecular interaction. Theseintermolecular interactions can be depicted by drawing the potential energy of a pair molecule inrelation to the distance. The intermolecular potential energy surface in the mixtures of CH4-H2COgases from ab initio calculations has been explored. In ab initio calculations the basis setsuperposition error (...

Crystal structures can identify ligand-receptor interactions and assist the development of novel therapeutics, but experimental challenges sometimes necessitate the use of homologous proteins. Tropisetron is an orthosteric ligand at both 5-HT3 and α7 nACh receptors and its binding orientation has been determined in the structural homologue AChBP (pdbid: 2WNC). Co-crystallisation with a structur...

This study shows that the discharge of many motor cortical cells is strongly influenced by attributes of movement related to the geometry and mechanics of the arm and not only by spatial attributes of the hand trajectory. The activity of 619 directionally tuned cells was recorded from the motor cortex of two monkeys during reaching movements with the use of similar hand paths but two different ...

Correctly estimating fingerprint ridge orientation is an important task in fingerprint image processing. A successful orientation estimation algorithm can drastically improve the performance of tasks such as fingerprint enhancement, classification, and singular points extraction. Gradient-based orientation estimation algorithms are widely adopted in academic literature, but they cannot guarante...
