The current research examined the interaction between self-complexity, affect, and perceived goal attainability on self-regulation. Participants received failure feedback about their performance and were given the opportunity to reduce this discrepancy through practice. Greater self-complexity was associated with greater practice, regardless of affect and perceived effectiveness of practice. Lo...

In hydro power plants from Romania, there is a major interest for the implementation of digital systems for monitoring and control replacing the conventional control systems for power, frequency and voltage. Therefore is necessary to develop new algorithms, in order to be able to implement digital control systems for monitoring and control of a group of hydro power plants in a cascade system al...

among the most common type of literary, aesthetic and lyric literature by having the elements and themesimagery provides a good platform to analyze the structure of the word external and internal relationships because relationships based on the form and structure of speech is considered so by what is in the form of content main purpose of the speaker is the approach to the structure of the styl...

In the present article two possible meanings of the term "mathematical structure" are discussed: a formal and a nonformal one. It is claimed that contemporary mathematics is structural only in the nonformal sense of the term. Bourbaki's definition of structure is presented as one among several attempts to elucidate the meaning of that nonformal idea by developing a formal theory which allegedly...

Garner (1962) distinguished between internal structure as the relations between variables making up a specified set of stimuli, and external structure as the relations between the stimuli and some external variable such as a differential response. He also argued that factors involved in external structure are most closely related to psychological processes of discrimination, or learning tasks s...

This paper describes a novel prototype for automated digitization of the three-dimensional paper structure. The concept is based on a light microscope which is rigidly attached to a microtome. The microscope can be moved in all three directions of space with high accuracy in order to be able to digitize large samples with high spatial resolution. All components are controlled by a PC interface ...

U.S. Government work not protected by U.S. copyright Abstract – In this paper we describe key aspects of the conceptual design of the microwave interrogation structure in the laser-cooled cesium frequency standard that is part of the Primary Atomic Reference Clock in Space (PARCS) experiment. The PARCS standard uses balls of cold atoms launched in a pulsed beam configuration. The microwave inte...

This paper presents a triangular model of concept structure and four developmental levels of physical concepts: primitive, empirical, exact, and formal. The model is built upon Vygotsky’s concept theory and derived from the semantic modeling of concepts. The basic components of the model are: core C, meaning M, meaning layers M1, M2, M3, sense S, and their relationships. This model also disting...

Concept mapping is widely used in educational settings to aid knowledge construction, sharing, and comparison, as well as to assess students’ understanding. However, despite this rich range of uses, there have been few controlled studies of the relationship between concept maps and people’s internal conceptualizations. Because concept maps represent information as a network of concepts, an inte...
