The present study was the first to explain nurses' experience of equal care. A qualitative study sought to describe the experiences of 18 clinical nurses and nurse managers who were selected through purposive samp...

Extracting biomedical relations such as drug-drug interaction (DDI) from text is an important task in biomedical NLP. Due to the large number of complex sentences in biomedical literature, researchers have employed some sentence simplification techniques to improve the performance of the relation extraction methods. However, due to difficulty of the task, there is no noteworthy improvement in t...

this research is intended to design strategies of human resource through miles and snow model in an active industrial center of oil, gas and cement. the research followed an applied approach using survey method. research population included 1100 employees and experts of the same center, 285 subjects of whom were selected as sample by a stratified and systematic random selection. for designing h...

In 1982, N. Immerman proved that (positive) least fixed point logic was closed under negation. He used a construction similar to that of Moschovakis [34]: if a logic admits an “inductive norm” that partitions a relation into blocks labelled by integers, then an appropriate “stage comparison relation” might be used to construct a negation of that relation within that logic. In this paper, we gen...

negation has many complicated forms and can be represented in a variety of ways. some sentences have explicit negation items and some other sentences convey the notion of negation without having any explicit negation item. negative polarity items (npis) are expressions that need to a negative context to be grammatically correct, and their meanings are compatible with negative sentences and are ...
