the aim of this study was to examine the effect of a rhythmic motor program on the perceptual – motor abilities (pma) and the intelligence quotient (iq) of educable mentally retarded (emr) children. the sample consisted of 24 emr girls (mean age = 11.98+1.43 years and iq = 70.58+ 9.95). then, they were matched and assigned to two groups of intervention and control according to their iq and pma ...

Laser refractive surgery for myopia increases the eye's higher-order wavefront aberrations (HOA's). However, little is known about the impact of such optical degradation on post-operative image quality (IQ) of these eyes. This study determined the relation between HOA's and IQ parameters (peak IQ, dioptric focus that maximized IQ and depth of focus) derived from psychophysical (logMAR acuity) a...

Social media has become an integral part of people’s lives. People share their daily activities, experiences, interests, and opinions on social networking websites, opening the floodgates of information that can be analyzed by marketers as well as consumers. However, low barriers to publication and easy-to-use interactive interfaces have contributed to various information quality (IQ) problems ...

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare theory of Mind, IQ and attention of normal and hypothyroidism students. Materials & Methods: The research method was causal – comparative. The statistical society of it includes students studying in first-grade section of Saveh city that among them, 346 people were selected using random cluster sampling. In the first stage, 30 students were di...

Recent trade disruptions and their consequences on supply chains show the importance of stable relations for exporters' economic planning importers' security. Both instability in trading partners' institutional environment differences between them are likely to exacerbate these disruptions. We investigate role quality (IQ) its similarity with IQ stability links. focus links agri-food products e...

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in immunocompetent adults is usually asymptomatic, but results lifelong latency. Infection occurring congenitally or immunodeficiency can lead to cognitive impairment. We aimed investigate the associations between CMV exposure and intelligence quotient (IQ) patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SZS), bipolar (BDS) healthy controls (HC). immunoglobulin G...

purpose: to compare tecnis z9000 and acrysof iq aspheric intraocular lenses (iols) regarding spherical aberration and contrast sensitivity. methods: thirty-four eyes of 34 patients undergoing phacoemulsification cataract surgery were randomly assigned to implantation of tecnis or iq iols. three months postoperatively, best-corrected visual acuity (bcva), spherical aberration (with 4 and 6 mm pu...

purpose: to compare acrysof iq and sensar intraocular lens (iols) in terms of spherical aberration and contrast sensitivity.  methods: thirty-four eyes of 34 patients undergoing phacoemulsification cataract surgery were randomly assigned for implantation of acrysof iq or sensar iols. three months postoperatively, best-corrected visual acuity (bcva), spherical aberration (with 4 and 6 mm pupil d...

OBJECTIVES Breast-fed C-allele carriers of the rs174575 single nucleotide polymorphism in the fatty acyl desaturase 2 (FADS2) gene have been reported to show a 6.4 to 7 IQ point advantage over formula-fed C-allele carriers, with no effect of breast-feeding in GG carriers. An Australian sample was examined to determine if an interaction between breast-feeding and the rs174575 single nucleotide p...

We review new findings and new theoretical developments in the field of intelligence. New findings include the following: (a) Heritability of IQ varies significantly by social class. (b) Almost no genetic polymorphisms have been discovered that are consistently associated with variation in IQ in the normal range. (c) Much has been learned about the biological underpinnings of intelligence. (d) ...
