The current study compares the effects of experimentally induced rumination, positive reappraisal, distancing, and acceptance on affect states in adolescents aged 13-18. Participants (N = 160) were instructed to think about a recent stressful event. Next, they received specific instructions on how to think about that event in each condition. Manipulation checks revealed that the manipulations w...

results ninety (74.6%) patients were male and 33 (25.4%) were female. they were in the age range of 20-60 years old. fifty four (41.5%) patients had moderate social acceptance and 76 (58.5%) had high social acceptance scores. conclusions among the variables including age, gender, education, occupation, residential area, marital status, family history of hiv/aids, family history of psychiatric d...

This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between social interaction, perceived social support and social acceptance with aggression among adolescents. The execution method was a descriptive and correlative. The statistical population of this study included all of the boy adolescent high school students, that sample including 260 participants of boy adolescents were chosen from vario...

We show that, from the topological point of view, 2-tape Büchi automata have the same accepting power as Turing machines equipped with a Büchi acceptance condition. The Borel and the Wadge hierarchies of the class RATω of infinitary rational relations accepted by 2-tape Büchi automata are equal to the Borel and the Wadge hierarchies of ω-languages accepted by realtime Büchi 1-counter automata o...

We study the qualitative behavior of the positive solutions of a second-order rational fuzzy difference equationwith initial conditions being positive fuzzy numbers, and parameters are positive fuzzy numbers. More precisely, we investigate existence of positive solutions, boundedness and persistence, and stability analysis of a second-order fuzzy rational difference equation. Some numerical exa...

Background: One of social problems which has affected our society and resulted in problems for different groups of people is drug abuse. This issue indicates a serious psychological, physical and social problem in community. Social skills have positive and successful influences in prevention of substance abuse. This includes the ability to explain events correctly and then appropriate decision ...

While the technology acceptance model (TAM) is generally robust it does not always adequately explain user behavior. Recent studies argue that including individual characteristics in TAM can improve our understanding of those conditions under which TAM is not adequate for explaining acceptance behavior. Using this argument, we examine the effects of positive mood, one individual characteristic ...

The concept of acceptance has both research and clinical significance. There may be two types of acceptance leading to different health outcomes. By assessing their level and type of acceptance, clinicians could provide patients with appropriate treatments to encourage 'active' acceptance, thereby leading to positive health outcomes.
