Objective: This study is an examination of the relationship between self-compassion, cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, and self-confidence as competitive state anxiety among female athletes Students. Methodology: The research method was descriptive-correlational. Two hundred and fifty-three female student (140 taekwondo and 113 karate) were selected among athletes present at the 14th Student ...

Many hierarchical techniques to solve large Markov decision processes (MDPs) are based on the partition of the state space into strongly connected components (SCCs) that can be classified into some levels. In each level, smaller problems named restricted MDPs are solved, and then these partial solutions are combined to obtain the global solution. In this paper, we first propose a novel algorith...

The present study used different categories of organized sector manufacturing industries pooled data for the periods of 1981-82 and 2007-08 in Haryana state (India). The present undertaking seeks to analyze the inter-temporal and inter-industry comparison of total factor productivity (TFP) measured by Malmquist productivity index - an application of DEA which calculates the indices of TFP and i...

The reaction A + B −→ B is studied when the reactants diffuse in phase space, i.e. their dynamics is described by the Langevin equation. The steadystate rate constants are calculated for both the target (static A and mobile B’s) and trapping (mobile A and static B’s) problems when the reaction is assumed to occur at the first contact. For Brownian dynamics (i.e., ordinary diffusion), the rate c...

We study the heating of coronal loops by linear resonant Alfvén waves that are excited by photospheric footpoint motions of the magnetic field lines. The analysis is restricted to azimuthally polarised footpoint motions so that Alfvén waves are excited directly. At the radii where Alfvén waves, travelling back and forth along the length of the loop, are in phase with the footpoint motions, the ...

Members of the genus Micromonospora show a complex life cycle which normally involves the presence of substrate or vegetative mycelia and sporulation with single spores born on the vegetative hyphae followed by the synthesis of a dark extracellular polysaccharide. Bergey’s Manual states that micromonosporae rarely produces aerial mycelia (AM) and if so, is considered “sterile”. During the chara...

Usually, there are two phases in constructing a multivariate control chart. Phase I is to estimate the in-control process parameters and to establish control limits using historical data. Phase II is when the control limits are used to monitor the process. This paper focuses on determining the optimal number of samples in Phase I since number of samples affect the cost of quality control in pra...

Objective: Predict patient-specific vitals deemed medically acceptable for discharge from a pediatric intensive care unit (ICU). Design: The means of each patient’s heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements between their medical and physical discharge from the ICU were computed as a proxy for their physiologically acceptable state space (PASS) for successful ICU discharge. ...
