Understood in terms of theoretical knowledge (or knowledge-that), however, it faces the arguably insurmountable problems of relativism and superstition. The educational implications of this would ...

and to be power bounded (notation: T ∈ (PW)) if (1) holds for every polynomial of the special form p(ζ) = ζ where n is a positive integer. If T ∈ (PB) [resp., T ∈ (PW)], then there is a smallest number M ≥ 1 which satisfies (1) [resp., (1) restricted]. This number will be called the polynomial bound [resp., the power bound] of T and will be denoted by Mpb(T ) [resp., Mpw(T )]. (If T / ∈ (PB) [r...

Background & aim: Healthcare areas, especially fertility care (commonly accompanied with high emotions, as well as long-term and recurring treatment periods) could exclusively benefit from patient-centered care (PCC). Despite evident advantages of PCC, this approach has not been practiced as a routine procedure in current clinical environments yet, even in western developed countries. Therefore...

Article: Parents’ physiological regulation may support infants’ regulation. Mothers (N = 152) and 6-month-old male and female infants were observed in normal and disrupted social interaction. Affect was coded at 1-s intervals and vagal tone measured as respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA). Maternal sensitivity was assessed in free play. Mothers and infants showed opposite patterns of RSA change. ...
