Abstract This paper presents the RST-AQ, a 22-item scale to measure affective states related three motivational systems postulated by Reinforcement Sensitivity theory (RST-AQ): Behavioral approach system (BAS), inhibition (BIS), and Fight-Flight-Freeze (FFFS). The subscales are internally consistent. Results show an overall support for construct validity of our RST-AQ measure. correlations with...

there are many evidences that human serum paraoxonase activity modifies plasma lipid profile and paraoxonase has an antiatherogenic property. non-selective beta-blockers affect plasma lipid profile too, but they have atherogenic property when patients take these drugs in long term. in this study the effect of propranolol, a non-selective beta-blocker, on paraoxonase activity was investigated. l...

the corrosion inhibition characteristics of two synthesized schiff bases, namely n, n´-bis(2-hydroxy-6-nitrobenzaldehyde) benzidine  and n, n´-bis(salysylaldehyde) benzidine, on the mild steel corrosion in 2.0 m hydrochloric acid have been investigated by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. these studies were carried out at different ...

vanillin offers interesting possibilities for corrosion inhibition because of its safe use and highsolubility in water. the effect of vanillin on the corrosion inhibition of aisi 304 stainless steel in0.5m h2so4 solution has been studied using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemicalimpedance spectroscopy (eis). furthermore, this paper demonstrates that the electrochemical noise(en) tec...
