PURPOSE This study evaluates the extent to which bilingual children produce the same or overlapping responses on tasks assessing semantic skills in each of their languages and whether classification analysis based on monolingual or conceptual scoring can accurately classify the semantic development of typically developing (TD) bilingual children. METHOD In Study 1, 55 TD children (ages 4;0 [y...

This paper analyzes the impact of biased beliefs on the structure of informational equilibria in classical self-selection models. Using the intuitive insurance market example of Rothschild-Stiglitz (1976) I show that biases of high-risk individuals have fundamentally different effects on equilibrium contracts than biases of low-risk individuals. Whereas equilibrium contracts of both groups are ...

INTRODUCTION Suicide is one of the most prominent problems in health care system in current Iran. It could be impacted by various factors such as social, economic, individual and so on. Researchers show that socio-economic factors and suicide has significantly related. The people in low social class may more engage with social problems than higher social class. They may confront to problems suc...

Through joined two sensitive methods solvation and cloud point extraction separated and determined micro amount of Ce(III) from aqueous solutions by using organic reagent 2,4-Dimethyl pentan-3-one (2,4-DMP) as extractant and non-ionic surfactant 1% TritonX-100 , the experimental study shows the solvation species of Ce+3 extracted into cloud point layer (CPL) have a wavelength for maximum absorb...

The new species is a member of an apparently monophyletic group within the genus that includes R. flexile, R. walga, R. himanturi, R. burgeri, R. euzeti, R. hawaiiensis, R. urobatidium, R. paratrygoni, R. ditesticulum, R. tetralobatum, R. margaritense, R. biorchidum, and R. spinicephalum. All of these species have bothridia with medial longitudinal septa, a constriction at mid-bothridium, and, ...

Nations design their education systems to prepare youth for achieving national goals and objectives as perceived by that nation. The system reflects nations' epistemological, ontological axiological assumptions. Accordingly, the secular west has designed its educational intervention based on assumptions is diametrically opposite Islamic belief culture (Asad, 2005). Our contemporary largely deve...

Ak...
