The current study aimed to examine the effects of strategic planning, online planning, strategic planning and online planning combined (joint planning), and no planning on the complexity, accuracy, and fluency of oral productions in two simple and complex narrative tasks. Eighty advanced EFL learners performed one simple narrative task and a complex narrative task with 20 minutes in between. Th...

health systems, particularly those in low- and middle-income countries (lmics), need stronger management and leadership capacities. management and leadership are not synonymous, yet should be considered together as there can be too much of one and not enough of the other. in complex adaptive health systems, the multiple interactions and relationships between people and elements of the system me...

In the biclique attack, a shorter biclique usually results in less data complexity, but at the expense of more computational complexity. The early abort technique can be used in partial matching part of the biclique attack in order to slightly reduce the computations. In this paper, we make use of this technique, but instead of slight improvement in the computational complexity, we keep the amo...

Although the Turing-machine model of computation is widely used in computer science it is fundamentally inadequate as a foundation for the theory of modern scientific computation. The real-number model is described as an alternative. Physicists often choose continuous mathematical models for problems ranging from the dynamical systems of classical physics to the operator equations and path inte...

introduction: general medical education starts with basic sciences which usually continue about 2.5 to 3 years. in this period, the students study basic medical sciences and then start the clinical stage in which they deal with diagnoses, care, and cure of disease. the purpose of this study was to assess the integration of basic sciences period with the clinical period at shiraz university of m...

Background and aim: Considering the widespread development of implants in dental treatment plans, linear measurements on panoramic radiography are of especial importance. In the present study we investigated the effect of head misalignment up to 15° around vertical and horizontal axes on the magnification rate of digital panoramic radiography in each part of upper and lower jaws.
