Objective: The aim of the present research was to study the effect of the metacognition training on the metacognition approaches and the magnitude of disposition towards substance abuse as the result of learning various metacognition strategies.  Methods: The research method was experimental with the pre-test, post-test design. The Statistical population included all of abusers male in TC, B...

Multilevel PWM waveforms can be decomposed into several multilevel PWM components. Phase-shifted carrier (PSC) is an efficient decomposition technique. In this paper, we have first demonstrated the equality of PSC and alternative phase opposition disposition techniques. Second, we have modified PSC to accommodate other disposition techniques. Third, we have investigated the effects of using...

This paper draws on examples from New Zealand early childhood settings to illustrate a dynamic approach to learning dispositions. It sets out three dimensions along which a ‘learning curriculum’ can strengthen valued responses to learning opportunities: increasing their frequency and robustness, widening their domain, and deepening their complexity and competence. It is suggested that learning ...

BACKGROUND Critical thinking is an essential ability for medical students. However, the relationship between parental rearing styles and medical students' critical thinking disposition has rarely been considered. The aim of this study was to investigate whether parental rearing styles were significant predictors of critical thinking disposition among Chinese medical students. METHODS 1,075 me...

This paper presents the comparative study of three phase twenty five level diode clamped and cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverters. The comparison is made in respect of requirement of devices, quality of output voltage and reduction of total harmonic distortion at the multilevel inverter terminals. In this work multicarrier sinusoidal pulse modulation control methods of Phase disposition (PD-P...

People who are sensitive to social rejection tend to anxiously expect, readily perceive, and overreact to it. This article shows that this cognitive-affective processing disposition undermines intimate relationships. Study 1 describes a measure that operationalizes the anxious-expectations component of rejection sensitivity. Study 2 provides experimental evidence that people who anxiously expec...

introduction: critical thinking skill is an essential factor for success in today’s rapidly developing world. the present study was carried out to compare the association between critical thinking disposition and academic achievement in preclinical and clinical medical students. methods: this study was descriptive-correlational in which the sample included 259 medical students at kermanshah uni...

the drug pump protein mrp2 is a membrane drug efflux transporter widely distributed in normal and tumor tissues. its role is thought to be crucial for the disposition of many drugs and their substrates in different tissues. in this study, we aimed to examine the effects of systematic inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide (lps) on the expression and function of this transporter in rats. jug...
