anxiety affects the culture of society so that content of each culture has permanent effects on behavior, feeling and psychological features of people. the purpose of this research was the comparison of early maladaptive schemas between two ethnic groups (i.e. kurds and the persians students) with high and low levels of trait anxiety. the research design was descriptive and ex post facto type. ...

We analyze a model of life-cycle savings decisions which allows for both lifetime and income uncertainty. We then simulate life-cycle saving rates based on empirical income processes estimated from West German household data. Our main ndings are, rst, that allowing for mortality risk improves the life-cycle model's predictions slightly, and second, that simulated saving rates still fail to matc...

PURPOSE Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is required for the proper folding, function, and stability of various client proteins, two of which (KIT and PDGFRα) are critical in the pathogenesis and progression of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). This phase I study investigated the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of retaspimycin hydrochloride (IPI-504), a novel potent and selective HSP...

The curvature of utility functions varies between people. We suggest that there exists a relationship between the mode in which a person usually makes a decision and the curvature of the individual utility function. In a deliberate decision mode, a decisionmaker tends to have a nearly linear utility function. In an intuitive decision mode, the utility function is more curved. In our experiment ...

In this paper, we propose a measure of individual investor sentiment that is derived from the market for bank-issued warrants. Due to a unique warrant transaction data set from a large discount broker we are able to calculate a daily sentiment measure and test whether individual investor sentiment is related to daily stock returns by using vector autoregressive models and Granger causality test...

Auctions have been developed for economic transactions with asymmetric information and they are the simplest means of price determination for multilateral trading without ‘market makers.’ During the last years, new technologies gave a boost to the development and usage of innovative auction formats in several fields. We explore some of the new possibilities of applications and explain the diffe...
