BACKGROUND There is an emerging evidence base about best practice in supporting recovery. This is usually framed in relation to general principles, and specific pro-recovery interventions are lacking. AIMS To develop a theoretically based and empirically defensible new pro-recovery manualised intervention--called the REFOCUS intervention. METHOD Seven systematic and two narrative reviews we...

most researches in the felid of human resource development by means of personal development plan has focused on education and health industries. the aim of this research is to explain human resource development process in order to gain a better understanding and identifying factors affecting this process in project- based organizations. to this end, by adopting grounded theory methodology, data...

The notion of a p-competition graph and the p-competition number of a graph were introduced by S. -R. Kim, T. A. McKee, F. R. McMorris, and F. S. Roberts as a generalization of a competition graph and the competition number of a graph, respectively. Let p be a positive integer. The p-competition graph Cp(D) of a digraph D = (V, A) is a (simple undirected) graph which has the same vertex set V a...

Competition among health plans, hospitals, and physicians has taken place in fifteen health care markets primarily on the basis of price and secondarily on network breadth and style of care. In most markets, competition resulted in lower (or slowly growing) premium prices. Within a type of plan product, competition was leading to similar prices and networks and was reducing product differentiat...

The claim that managed care plans are more efficient than fee-for-service plans has been made so often that it has reached the status of folklore, but the evidence is inconclusive. The claim is usually based on one or both of the following errors: (1) lower medical care costs mean lower total costs (medical plus administrative costs) and (2) lower HMO premiums mean HMOs are more efficient than ...

We present a method exploiting computational refocusing capabilities of a light-field camera in order to obtain 3D shape information. We consider a light-field constructed from the relative motion between a camera and observed objects, i.e. points on the object surface are imaged under different angles along the direction of themotion trajectory. Computationally refocused images are handled by ...
