This research had two central goals: to examine the role of personality in (a) performing actions that anger spouses, and (b) eliciting angerprovoking actions from spouses. Personality data on a sample of married persons {N = 214) were obtained from three sources—self-report, spouseobserver report, and independent interviewers' reports. In a separate session, subjects recorded which of 147 upse...

let $h$ be a hopf algebra and $a$ an $h$-bimodule algebra‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we investigate gorenstein global dimensions for hopf‎ ‎algebras and twisted smash product algebras $astar h$‎. ‎results from‎ ‎the literature are generalized‎.

in this paper, some categorical properties of the category ${bf cpo}_{{bf act}text{-}s}$ of all {cpo $s$-acts}, cpo's equipped with actions of a monoid $s$ on them, and strict continuous action-preserving maps between them is considered. in particular, we describe products and coproducts in this category, and consider monomorphisms and epimorphisms. also, we show that the forgetful functor from...

The purpose of this report is to present Canada’s experience so far with the emergence of porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) using a pro-active risk management approach. This approach is reflected in the actions the Canadian Food Inspection Agency took in collaboration with other stakeholders starting from the period the disease was first confirmed in United States to the time after it was confirm...

The effective actions for d = 2, N = 3, 4 chiral supergravities with a linear and a non-linear gauge algebra are related to each other by a quantum reduction, the latter is obtained from the former by putting quantum currents equal to zero. This implies that the renormalisation factors for the quantum actions are identical. This work was supported in part by the Director, Office of Energy Resea...

The MediSim system extends virtual environment technology to allow medical personnel to interact with and train on simulated casualties. The casualty model employs a three-dimensional animated human body that displays appropriate physical and behavioral responses to injury and/or treatment. Medical corpsmen behaviors were developed to allow the actions of simulated medical personnel to conform ...

This integrative literature review aimed to identify nursing actions for stimulating child development in national and international journals, between 2000 and 2009. Medline and Lilacs were examined, with analysis of fifteen articles. Results point out ludic elements as essential for child development and state that it should be explored by nursing professionals through art, music, toys and the...

arising of loss entitles the third party to the compensation. in this respect, more often than not, the entitlement of the third party finds its justification based on voluntary principles and sometimes based on involuntary ones. if the third party cannot find defense based on voluntary principles, he or she has to resort to involuntary ones. the possibility of multiple compensation methods cou...

Providing an environment for electronic commerce involves complex, technical questions that need to be addressed and understood by decision making bodies. This paper studies one attempt to support electronic commerce at the national level. It looks at the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Bill in the UK and focuses on the political actions of those seeking to amend the Bill in Parliament. Afte...
