The role of light in cold acclimation of Hedera helix L. var. Thorndale appears to differ from that reported for winter annuals. Although light greatly enhances the degree of hardiness attained, cold acclimation is not obligatorily linked to a light requirement. Photoperiods, varying from 8 to 24 hours, received during the cold acclimation period were equally effective in promoting maximum hard...

A bstiract. The role of light in cold acclimation of Hedera helix L. var. Thorndale appears to differ from that reported for winter annuals. Although light greatly enhances the degree of hardiness attained, cold acclimation is not obligatorily linked to a light requirement.

The ratio of electrical conductance measured at two frequencies can be used to predict the cold hardiness of stem sections of Cornus stolonifera Michx. during the first stage of cold acclimation. Electrical conductance at 50 hertz divided by electrical conductance at 100 kilohertz gave a better estimate of hardiness than measurements at either frequency alone. The observed increase in the elect...

OBJECTIVE Nursing is one of the stressful jobs that affect nurse's well-being. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between spiritual intelligence, hardiness and well-being among Iranian nurses. METHODS Samples of this cross- sectional study selected by Randomized stratified sampling, 125 nurses who have been working in different wards of Bushehr university hospitals. Data wer...

chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is reportedly controlled by at least five genes with tolerance dominant over Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) germplasm with sufficient winter susceptibility (Malhotra and Singh, 1990). hardiness to survive most winters in cold northern areas is available. However, the use of that germplasm in breeding programs is hampered One of the major problems in characterizing ...

background and aim: marital conflicts are unavoidable in family life, especially between a couple employed in a stressful job such as nursing. therefore, identification and improvement of individualistic skills that can affect marital conflicts are important. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between resilience, psychological hardiness, and marital conflicts among nur...

OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) on psychological hardiness and coping strategies of infertile women undergoing Assisted Reproductive Therapy (ART). METHODS Two groups of infertile women who received ART consisted of experimental group (15 females) and control group (16 females) were compared. The participants in experimental group received 15 sess...

The study concerns the moderating role of two variables--hardiness and social support--in the relation between job stressors and well-being. It was checked if there is a connection between hardiness and social support, and if these variables are directly related to the level of well-being. It was also hypothesized that hardiness and social support buffer the negative influence of stressors on w...
