Can music preference indicate mental health status in young people?
OBJECTIVE In the aftermath of the double suicide of two teenage girls in 2007, the media linked the themes of 'emo' music and the girls' mental state. But it is not just emo music that has been the subject of scrutiny by the media. Rap music, country, and heavy metal have also been blamed for antisocial behaviours including violence, theft, promiscuity and drug use. It remains an important rese...
متن کاملefl students gender and socioeconomic status: the use of politeness strategies in the first and second languages
within the components of communicative competence, a special emphasis is put on the “rules of politeness,” specifically the politeness strategies (brown and levinson, 1978) that speakers deploy when performing the request speech act. this is because the degree of imposition that making a request places upon one’s interlocutor(s) has been seen to be influenced by several factors among which, as ...
Collection of three bacterial aerosols by respirator and surgical mask filters under varying conditions of flow and relative humidity.
A variety of respirator filters and surgical masks were challenged with three aerosolized bacteria: Mycobacterium abscessus (M.a.) (a rod), Staphylococcus epidermidis (S.e.) (a sphere), and Bacillus subtilis (B.s.) (a rod). Tests were conducted at two flow rates (45 and 85 l./min) and two humidity levels (30 and 70%). Aerosols were measured with a total-particle, direct-reading, spectrometer an...
متن کاملA mask to modify inspired air temperature and humidity and its effect on exercise induced asthma.
BACKGROUND Heat and moisture loss from the respiratory tract during exercise are important triggers of exercise induced asthma. METHODS A new heat and moisture exchange mask has been developed which both recovers exhaled heat and water and has a sufficiently low resistance for use during exercise. The effect of the mask on inspired air temperature was studied in four normal subjects. Eight as...
متن کامل\And" Can You Validate It?
We advocate changing a language if that language cannot support validation. To this end, we are exploring the computational cost of basic language constructs within our abductive validation framework. Conjunction is found to decrease the computational cost of validation for theories 5 that are not used for time-based simulation purposes. However, in the case of time-based simulations, the use o...
