BACKGROUND Generation of membrane curvature is critical for the formation of plasma membrane protrusions and invaginations and for shaping intracellular organelles. Among the central regulators of membrane dynamics are the BAR superfamily domains, which deform membranes into tubular structures. In contrast to the relatively well characterized BAR and F-BAR domains that promote the formation of ...

This study was aimed to evaluate the Emotional Intelligence (EI) of a group of patients with first episode psychosis in Iran as compared with a healthy control group. A case-control design was used. EI was assessed using Persian version of Bar-On Emotional Quotient inventory (EQ-i) administered on 25 patients with history of a single psychotic episode in the last two years, as well as 64 health...

A recent study of the Minnesota Agriculture and Rural Leadership (MARL) program set out to determine the relationship between andragogical program design and increased levels of emotional intelligence (EI). Members of two cohorts in the MARL leadership development program received different levels of focused effort, peer coaching, individual action plans, disorienting dilemmas, self-reflection,...

Eq. (1) defines the distribution of a relation strength for irrelevant data entries φ. Eq. (2) defines an relation strength from the clsuter k to cluster l for relevant data entries. λi, i = 1, 2, . . . , N in Eq. (3) denotes the probability of a relevancy flag variable ri being 1. ri = {0, 1} in Eq. (4) indicates whether the object i is relevant or not. zi = k ∈ {1, 2, . . . } indicates the cl...

i=1 t i) k (87) We now comment on how the derivation changes when n = 2 and k 3. The case n 3 and k = 2 follows as well due to the symmetric functional equation (Equation 12). Note that up to Eq. 57 the derivation is valid when n = 2. Furthermore, note that the sum in Eq. 56 consists now of one term where l = j 1 = 1. Thus, Eq. 56 and Eq. 57 yield, using x i = z ij1 y j1 + z in y n (n=2, j 1 = ...

Ghana is an important cocoa producer and exporter this production of high economic importance. Increasing interest in the sustainable productions cocoa/chocolate necessitated need to assess environmental impacts associated with different chocolate variants (extra dark (EDC), (DC), milk (MC) flavoured (FMC) Ghana, including identification hotspots for improvement. The life cycle assessment tool ...

In this preliminary paper we match business Census productivity data from the Annual Business Inquiry (ABI) with WERS data and (i) compare the WERS self-reported productivity data with that of the business survey and (ii) examine the relation between unions and productivity using the business data productivity measures. We find (a) no significant relation between self-reported productivity data...
