Reparations are widely regarded as a key element of dealing with the past in transitional justice. Over three decades, there has been plethora state practice, jurisprudence, and international norms requiring states other responsible actors to redress victims’ harm. Yet practice remain significant deficiencies delivering reparations on ground those affected. This article explores what victims th...

Learners sometimes have incoherent and fragmented intuitive prior knowledge that is (partly) "incompatible" with the to-be-learned contents. Such knowledge in pieces can cause conceptual disorientation and cognitive overload while learning. We hypothesized that a pre-training intervention providing a generalized schema as a structuring framework for such knowledge in pieces would support (re)or...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to investigate the pursuit of achievement goals in medical students and to assess the relationship between achievement goals, learning strategy, and motivation. METHODS Two hundred seventy freshman and sophomore premedical students and sophomore medical school students participated in this study, which used the Achievement Goals Scale and the Self-Regulate...

The stochastic switching between microtubule growth and shrinkage is a fascinating unique process in the regulation of cytoskeleton. To understand it, almost all attention has been focused on ends. However, recent research revived idea that tubulin dimers can also be exchanged protofilaments along shaft, thus repairing protecting it from disassembly. Here, we review describing this phenomenon, ...

OBJECTIVE Approximately 66-80%of graduate students experience statistics anxiety and some researchers propose that many students identify statistics courses as the most anxiety-inducing courses in their academic curriculums. As such, it is likely that statistics anxiety is, in part, responsible for many students delaying enrollment in these courses for as long as possible. This paper proposes a...

Based on an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of row/column elimination and cell elimination repair methods in embryonics (embryological electronics, embryonics), we developed a novel embryonics hardware structure with evolutionary ability and a corresponding self-repair method. The proposed embryonics system has a function layer, a repair layer and an evolution layer. Target circuit...

2009 2 3 SUMMARY Biomimetic structures are structures that demonstrate increased functionality through mimicking qualities of biological organisms. Self-repair and adaptation mechanisms are examples of biological qualities that can be adapted in structural engineering. Over the last decades, great strides have been made in advancing theory and practice of active structural control. However, lit...
