In order to determine the willingness of the population of São Carlos (a city in the state of São Paulo, Brazil) to pay for the environmental protection (WTP) of the Feijão River's watershed, the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM), as well as the bidding-games technique, were used. In October 2010, 280 questionnaires were applied to a probabilistic sample of the population. A multivariate logist...

This article examines the most famous and high-profile cyber threats that were carried out against state during Russian invasion. We also analyzed laws adopted hostilities on territory of our state. They have significantly affected protection further to entire system.The issue Russia's destructive cyberattacks before invasion country proves play an important strategic role in today's world war,...

We give a q-analogue of some Dixon-like summation formulas obtained by Gould and Quaintance [Fibonacci Quart. 48 (2010), 56–61] and Chu [Integral Transforms Spec. Funct. 23 (2012), 251–261], respectively. For example, we prove that

China is a country that is arousing a large amount of interest as a new mega-market, as it opens itself to a market-orientated economy and expands at a remarkable rate. However, the influx of international investment, new business opportunities and advertising from overseas has seen Chinese consumers being exposed to potentially offensive advertising products and images. While some products and...

The historical relationship between pragmatism and critical theory is one in which the antifoundational and practice-oriented dimensions of pragmatism appear to exist in tension, if not outright conflict, with the emancipatory commitments of the neo-Marxist legacy of critical theory. While Deweyan pragmatism is most often understood in its deliberative, experimental, open-ended, and contextual ...

My colleague Richard F. West and I began studies of context effects on the word recognition of children when we were both graduate students at the University of Michigan in the mid-i9705.At the time we were heavily influenced by the popular top-tiown models of the reading process.’ We fully expected to make an experimental mark by providing more rigorous confirmationsof the individual-differenc...
