Subjectively and objectively assessed social and physical environmental correlates of preschoolers’ accelerometer-based physical activity
BACKGROUND Overweight and low levels of physical activity (PA) in preschoolers are major public health concerns. However, to date only few studies have investigated subjective and objective correlates of PA across different socioecological domains in preschoolers. We therefore simultaneously investigate associations between preschoolers' objectively measured leisure-time PA and a comprehensive ...
متن کاملEvolving useful delusions: Subjectively rational selfishness leads to objectively irrational cooperation
We introduce a framework within evolutionary game theory for studying the distinction between objective and subjective rationality and apply it to the evolution of cooperation on 3-regular random graphs. In our simulations, agents evolve misrepresentations of objective reality that help them cooperate and maintain higher social welfare in the Prisoner’s dilemma. These agents act rationally on t...
متن کاملHabitat destruction, environmental catastrophes, and metapopulation extinction.
The extinction process of fragmented populations, characterized by a small number of conspecifics inhabiting each patch, is heavily affected by natural and human disturbance. To evaluate the risk of extinction we consider a network of identical patches connected by passive or active dispersal and hosting a finite, discrete number of individuals. We discuss three types of disturbance affecting t...
متن کاملModeling environmental factors on vegetation destruction in protected areas
Over the past two decades, degradation damage has increased in natural ecosystems. This research focuses solely on the degradation of soil and vegetation cover in Sorkheh Eshpar National Park. For this purpose, some physical properties of the soil (specific gravity and true porosity, moisture content, a percentage of pebbles, acidity and conductivity and soil texture) were measured. Also, the d...
متن کاملDiscrepancy between subjectively reported symptoms and objectively measured clinical findings in dry eye: a population based analysis
OBJECTIVE To investigate the discrepancy between patient-reported symptoms and measured clinical findings and influencing factors in dry eye (DE). SETTING A population-based, cross-sectional study was performed in July-August 2007 in northeast China. The study was performed on populations originating from two rural districts that are respectively located approximately 377 and 177 km from our ...
