Carl Rogers' article (see record 2007-14639-002) on the necessary and sufficient conditions for personality change has had a significant impact on the field of psychotherapy and psychotherapy research. He emphasized the client as arbiter of his or her own subjective experience and tested his hypothesized therapist-offered conditions of change using recorded sessions. This aided in demystifying ...

The primary aim of this study was to conduct a bivariate genetic analysis investigating the extent to which genetic and environmental factors contribute to stability and change in personality factors in the period from adolescence to young adulthood on a sample of Croatian twins. The sample used in this research was formed in 1992 based on a register of citizens of Zagreb and data was collected...

Personality (Big Five and self-esteem) effects on social relationship quality (perceived support and conflict) and vice versa were longitudinally studied during emerging adulthood. Rank-order stability correlations of personality and social relationship quality were investigated.

BACKGROUND Dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) is used to induce murine colitis. Although the exact mechanism by which DSS administration causes disease is unknown, evidence suggests that the resident bacteria play a role in the development of murine DSS colitis, analogous to their role in human inflammatory bowel diseases. METHODS C57BL/6 mice received 5% DSS in the drinking water and were euthaniz...

The present study is aimed at evaluating the effect of functional alginate coating incorporated with Lactoperoxidase (LPOS) and Zataria multiflora Essential Oil (ZEO) or both as natural additives on microbial and chemical characteristics of rainbow trout fillets. Firstly, Different treatments of trout fillets were prepared using ZEO (0.5 and 1%) and LPOS (5%) individually and in combination...

abstract in this study, big-head carp flesh was processed and fish finger was produced by the formula of 1, 2 and 3 with 70, 80 and 93.5 percent of big head fish flesh respectively. then sensory attributes, biochemical changes and nutritional value such as peroxide value (pv), thiobarbituric acid (tba) and the total volatile nitrogen (tvb-n) changes and microbial load of all three formulas were...

Genomics and proteomics of microorganisms are revolutionizing our understanding of marine microbial ecology. In this essay we address this by discussing (1) what microbial genome resources are available for marine ecologists, (2) how single-organism genomics and proteomics have revealed new microbial functions in the marine ecosystem, and (3) how the integration of metagenomics, metaproteomics ...
