Abstract Adam Hosein has recently proposed that a sufficient degree of intervening agency between person’s contribution to an unjust lethal threat and the posing can exempt contributor from liability defensive killing. suggests this will most civilians defence even if they contribute killings. I argue does not bear on responsibility for threat, her

Competition at elite level can require athletes to perform optimally in extreme environmental conditions. This review focuses on mood responses in such conditions and proposes practical guidelines for those working with athletes. Different environments are considered, including altitude and extreme heat and cold. Performing in extreme heat, cold or at altitude can produce a stress response char...

BACKGROUND It seems we are now experiencing "responsibility problems" among medical trainees (MTs) and some of those recently graduated from medical schools in Iran. Training responsible professionals have always been one of the main concerns of medical educators. Nevertheless, there is a dearth of research in the literature on "responsibility" especially from the medical education point of vie...

Mohrhoff's use of the Aharonov-Bergmann-Lebowitz (ABL) rule for time-symmetric objective probabilities, as related to counterfactual intervening measurements between pre-and post-selection, is problematic. The ABL rule was formulated on the assumption that such intervening measurements are actually made, and would therefore correspond to what Mohrhoff is calling " subjective " probabilities. Ul...

This issue of the Journal describes potential for such changes to lower probability firearm-related injuries and fatalities, not just children adolescents, but persons all ages.

the aim of the present study is to surveying the impact of new information technologies on improving customer relation management considering organizational innovation as intervening variable (case study: bank mellat of west azerbaijan). the study is applied and descriptive in nature. all of the employee in bank mellat of west azerbaijan branches were candidiate to participate in the study but ...

To study mediation, investigators sometimes examine the effect of an independent variable on an unrelated filler task that precedes the focal task. This approach assumes that the same psychological process drives performance on both tasks. The authors tested this assumption in a stereotype threat paradigm by manipulating whether or not the intervening task was described as relevant to the gende...

Pitch recognition was required alter a 4-sec. delay during which 4 other tones were played. When the standard (S) and comparison (C) tones were identical in pitch, the inclusion of a tone in the intervening sequence that was a semitone higher or lower than the S tone produced an increase in errors. Including tones both a semitone higher and a semitone lower in the same intervening sequence prod...

We have isolated a myeloma genomic DNA clone containing the variable and constant regions of a mouse alpha chain. Restriction enzyme analyses and electron microscopic R loop mapping have demonstrated that the variable region is separated from the constant region by 6.8 kilobases of intervening DNA. In addition, two intervening DNA sequences of 100--200 bases separate the constant region into th...
