Title: HOW DID YOU GET IN? ATTRIBUTIONS OF PREFERENTIAL SELECTION IN COLLEGE ADMISSIONS Archie L. Bates, III, Doctor of Philosophy, 2006 Directed By: Professor Katherine J. Klein Department of Psychology Minorities are often suspected beneficiaries (e.g., Heilman, 1994) of affirmative action—that is, they are individuals who attribute or perceive that others attribute their selection for a job ...

Spend your few moment to read a book even only few pages. Reading book is not obligation and force for everybody. When you don't want to read, you can get punishment from the publisher. Read a book becomes a choice of your different characteristics. Many people with reading habit will always be enjoyable to read, or on the contrary. For some reasons, this computer methods for ordinary different...

to start with, having employed transformation wave, some nonlinear partial differential equations have been converted into an ode. then, using the infinite series method for equations with similar linear part, the researchers have earned the exact soliton solutions of the selected equations. it is required to state that the infinite series method is a well-organized method for obtaining exact s...

Biophysical modeling studies have previously shown that cortical pyramidal cells driven by strong NMDA-type synaptic currents and/or containing dendritic voltage-dependent Ca++ or Na+ channels, respond more strongly when synapses are activated in several spatially clustered groups of optimal size-in comparison to the same number of synapses activated diffusely about the dendritic arbor [8]The n...

The hydrate saturation is a critical parameter in the evaluation of gas reservoirs. complex characteristics hydrate-bearing sediments pose challenges to reliability conventional geophysical techniques for evaluation. In this paper, we present study on developing novel approach characterize electrical properties porous media and evaluate quantitatively based parameters conductivity. laboratory e...

Abstract Archie’s parameters, cementation factor ( m ), saturation exponent n ) and tortuosity a are general that have effects on water magnitude, due to their sensitivity pores distribution, lithofacies properties wettability, particularly in carbonate reservoirs. Water magnitude has direct effect estimating initial oil-in-place values, inaccuracy its values will lead huge impact errors so it ...

In this study, we consider two different inequivalent formulations of the logistic difference equation $x_{n+1}= beta x_n(1- x_n), n=0,1,..., $ where $x_n$ is a sequence of fuzzy numbers and $beta$ is a positive fuzzy number. The major contribution of this paper is to study the existence, uniqueness and global behavior of the solutions for two corresponding equations, using the concept of Huku...
