The infants consumed significantly less milk during the 4-hr testing sessions in which their mothers drank alcoholic beer compared to when the mothers drank nonalcoholic beer; this decrease in milk intake was not due to a decrease in the number...

Let n,k,r and t be positive integers, and let [n] = {1,2, . . . ,n}. A family G ⊂ 2[n] is called r-wise t-intersecting if |G1∩·· ·∩Gr| ≥ t holds for all G1, . . . ,Gr ∈ G . Let us define a typical r-wise t-intersecting family Gi(n,r, t) and its k-uniform subfamily Fi(n,k,r, t), where 0 ≤ i ≤ ⌊n−t r ⌋, as follows: Gi(n,r, t) = {G ⊂ [n] : |G∩ [t + ri]| ≥ t +(r−1)i}, Fi(n,k,r, t) = Gi(n,r, t)∩ ([n...

1 1 Abstract Folklore-based learning is a kind of situated learning paradigm in which students learn by solving problems embedded in a near-real situation. The proposed learning approach employs further interesting story plots from folklores as the background situation to motivate students to participate in learning activities. It is believed that such a paradigm has, on one hand, the advantage...
