The refugee journey is the defining feature of the exilic process: it is a profoundly formative and transformative experience and a ‘lens’ on the newcomers’ social condition. Yet it remains a significantly under-researched theme in refugee and forced migration studies. This exploratory article maps what exists, what is missing, and what might be researched regarding these journeys. Commencing w...

A B S T R A C T “Addiction” is a multifaceted complicated disorder with many interrelated causes, as well as environmental and genetic features. Several hereditary variables that have an effect on these features might work in together to influence vulnerability and the extent of being an addict. Molecular re-sequencing of the latest and formerly researched genes holds a crucial place with regar...

68Ga Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an increasingly popular radiopharmaceutical tracer in prostate cancer and is becoming increasingly researched in other cancers such as breast cancer, renal cell carcinoma, glioblastoma multiforme, among others. Cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common primary hepatic malignant tumor; it is an aggressive tumor with a 5-year surviva...

This review examines recent research on groups and teams, giving special emphasis to research investigating factors that influence the effectiveness of teams at work in organizations. Several performance-relevant factors are considered, including group composition, cohesiveness, and motivation, although certain topics (e.g. composition) have been more actively researched than others in recent y...

Time series prediction has been extensively researched in both the statistical and computational intelligence literature with robust methods being developed that can be applied across any given application domain. A much less researched problem is multiple time series prediction where the objective is to simultaneously forecast the values of multiple variables which interact with each other in ...

Job design is one of the most frequently researched practices in the Human Resource Management (HRM) literature, and knowledge sharing has become an important and heavily researched managerial practice. The links between these practices, however, have received little attention in the literature. We argue that job design matters to knowledge sharing for motivational reasons. Specifi cally, jobs ...

Over the years, instant messaging has evolved from simply delivering textual messages from one person to another, to a concept in which rich content can be shared across remote participants. However, despite the importance of technologies like instant messaging in interpersonal interaction, communication of affect (and other emotional expressions) is not well supported by current technology. Th...

Gender differences in schizophrenia have been extensively researched and it is being increasingly accepted that gonadal steroids are strongly attributed to this phenomenon. Of the various hormones implicated, the estrogen hypothesis has been the most widely researched one and it postulates that estrogen exerts a protective effect by buffering females against the development and severity of the ...

Virtual Reality has known exponential development in the recent years and presents important research vectors for the years to come. One major issue, unresolved yet, remains the totally immersion feeling in Virtual Environment (VE) and one of it’s most important aspects still to be researched is locomotion in VE. In this direction the authors propose a bidirectional active treadmill based devic...

A beam-column element based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory is researched for nonlinear dynamic analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) structural element. Stiffness matrix of this element is obtained by using rigidity method. A solution technique that included nonlinear dynamic substructure procedure is developed for dynamic analyses of RC frames. A predicted-corrected form of the Bossak-α met...
