Background and aims The aim for this study was to assess the construct validity and reliability of the Health Dialogue Questionnaire (HDQ©) for eleventh grade in school through comparison of the HDQ© with Paediatric Quality Of Life Inventory (PedsQL™), Local monitoring of youth policy questionnaire (LUPP®), Health behaviour in Swedish school-aged children (HBSC©), Equal health (EH©) and The Swe...

We experimentally explore the effects and interactions of three variables considered important when bargaining over a jointly produced surplus: performance information, production uncertainties when translating performance into output, and subjective entitlements derived from the production process. We find that without performance information subjective entitlements are mostly mutually consist...

Purpose: We propose in this paper to analyze what are the factors that influence knowledge transfer both intra and intergenerational in family firms. The main objective is to establish a framework that can be used later in empirical research, although we maintain a completely theoretical approach in this paper Design/methodology/approach: This study, which is a comprehensive framework character...

A functional approach for the study of the random walks in random sceneries (RWRS) is proposed. Under fairly general assumptions on the random walk and on the random scenery, functional limit theorems are proved. The method allows to study separately the convergence of the walk and of the scenery: on the one hand, a general criterion for the convergence of the local time of the walk is provided...

Oil is among the most effective and the largest industries in the world. Given that it supplies a large percentage of the world’s energy and plays a significant role in the national power and international credit of countries, it has a huge impact on our world today. Iran has  huge oil reserves, and plays a key role in the exchange of the required energy in the world. In order to improve the pe...

wireless sensor network includes a large number of nodes which are distributed in a geographical location. the essential fact about wsn is that energy of nodes is limited. therefore, presenting proper solutions as an optimized routing is crucial to equally use energy of all nodes. in this paper we propose a method which performs routing in wsns using greedy approach. it is able to choose optimu...

For the valuation of the renewable energy investments, providing private investors with a financial incentive to accelerate their investment is a very significant issue. Financial subsidies are known by the majority of the people to be one of the most important drivers in renewable energy expansion and one of the main reasons which result in the development of any industry. In this paper, we pr...
