When the degree of intersections A∩B of events A,B is unknown arises a problem: how to evaluate the probability P(A ∩ B) and P(A ∩B) from P(A) and P(B). To treat related problems two models of valuation: interval and paired probabilities are proposed. It is shown that the valuation corresponding to the set operations ∩ (intersection), ∪ (union) and ∼ (complement) can be described by the truth f...

An efficient chiral squaramide-catalysed enantioselective Michael addition of pyrazolin-5-ones to 3-nitro-2H-chromenes for the synthesis of chiral heterocyclic systems containing both chroman and pyrazolone derivatives has been developed. This reaction afforded the desired products in high to excellent yields (up to 98%) with high enantioselectivities (up to 96%) and excellent diastereoselectiv...

Background & Aims: Despite advantages of exercise most employees in various countries do not exercise adequately. Transtheoretical model has been identified as a comprehensive model for behavior change and self efficacy is regarded as a fundamental structure of this model. Hence, in this study, the situation of exercise in comployees of Yazd according to the Transtheoretical Model and its relat...
