In domains with multiple competing goals, people face a basic challenge: How to make their strategy use flexible enough to deal with shifting circumstances without losing track of their overall objectives. This article examines how young children meet this challenge in one such domoin, tic-tot-toe. Experiment 1 provides an overview of development in the area: it indicates that children’s tic-ta...

BACKGROUND Demands placed on individuals in occupational and social settings, as well as imbalances in personal traits and resources, can lead to chronic stress. The Trier Inventory for Chronic Stress (TICS) measures chronic stress while incorporating domain-specific aspects, and has been found to be a highly reliable and valid research tool. The aims of the present study were to confirm the Ge...

Abstract NiMo-5%TiC, NiMo-15%TiC, and NiMo-25%TiC coatings were prepared on GCr15 steel by laser cladding (LC). The microstructure the phases of obtained analyzed using ultra-depth-of-field microscopy (UDFM) X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. A ball-on-disk wear test was used to analyze friction-wear performance substrate NiMo-TiC under grease-lubrication condition. results show that grain ...

Background: Tic disturbances are a group of developmental neurological disorders that often occur in childhood because of abrupt and automatic constrictions of muscles. This study aimed to evaluate the serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in children with a tic disorders. Methods: This present case-control research was performed on 63 children with tic disorders and 63 children who were healthy...

The goal of this work is to propose a learning procedure for fuzzy systems. Fuzzy systems are able to treat uncertain and imprecise informations. They have a capability to express knowledge in the form of linguistic rules. Their drawbacks are caused mainly by the diiculty of deening accurate membership functions and lack of a systematic procedure for the transformation of the expert knowledge i...

tics are sudden, recurrent and stereotyped motor movements or vocalizations. dopamine blockers are the main pharmacological agents used in the management of tics. opioid antagonists have been reported to have been effective in the management of tics. in this article, two patients with chronic motor tic disorder are reported, whose symptoms were disappeared by using opioid substances.

Most fuzzy systems including fuzzy decision support and fuzzy control systems provide out­ puts in the form of fuzzy sets that represent the inferred conclusions. Linguistic interpretation of such outputs often involves the use of linguistic approximation that assigns a linguistic label to a fuzzy set based on the predefined primary terms, linguistic modifiers and linguistic connectives.
