background:   behavioral regulation in exercise questionnaire-2 (breq-2) is the most commonly used tool for measurement of exercise behaviour regulation.measuring instrument in every exercise study in order to obtain accurate research data should be cross-cultural validated. the purpose of this study is to assess the validity and reliability of the iranian version of the breq-2 in a sample of u...

AIM The aim of this study is the validation in the Spanish context of the Behavioural Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-2 (BREQ-2) scale, developed by Markland et al., from the point of view of the self-determination theory and to compare the effect of gender, age and exercise duration and mode. METHODS For the validation of the instrument, two studies were carried out (n=250 and n=311) wi...

The ability to regulate emotions is important for human function and health. That emotion regulation can be achieved through cognitive change predicated on the notion of mediation. However, extent which individuals believe that their are cognitively mediated (C–M), or in contrast, occur via stimulus-response (S-R), underexplored, whether C–M S-R beliefs shape reactivity not yet known. Research ...

The balance between the costs and benefits of conspicuous animal communication signals ensures that signal expression relates to the quality of the bearer. Signal plasticity enables males to enhance conspicuous signals to impress mates and competitors and to reduce signal expression to lower energetic and predation-related signaling costs when competition is low. While signal plasticity may ben...

This article takes a 120 W direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) for tidal current energy as the research object, with aim of starting at low flow velocity, voltage regulation, and high sealing performance. The was conducted on design method generator, parameter calculation formula is modified based structural characteristics generator. scheme simulated using finite element...

For most real applications of computer vision, variations in operating conditions result in poor reliability. As a result, real world applications tend to require lengthy set-up and frequent intervention by qualified specialists. In this paper we describe how autonomic computing can be used to reduce the cost of installation and enhance reliability for practical computer vision systems. We begi...
