background and purpose: childbirth is a normal physiological process and a family event. women in various societies with different cultural backgrounds have diverse reasons for childbearing. understanding the reasons behind childbearing might help overcome some issues associated with early/late reproduction, or lack of desire to give birth. this study was an attempt to develop, validate, and st...

The present paper aims to investigate the role of open metal site metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on hydrogen adsorptivity using periodic boundary condition (PBC) density functional theory (DFT). Hence, MIL-47-M (M = V and Fe) were selected and one hydrogen molecule adsorptivity was calculated in different orientations on them. Four different chemical sites were identified in every cluster sect...

electrical steels are important alloys widely used in electrical instruments. the magnetic properties and low core loss of grain oriented silicon steels are closely related to the sharpness of goss texture ({110} ).the direction of is the softest direction for magnetism.  in this work, the microstructure and dependence of orientation density along the major texture fibers on the applied cold ro...

Human capital plays an important role and acts as a strategic resource that helps firms achieve strategic competitiveness. In the global business context, understanding the expectations and behaviors of employees in different cultures is paramount for international and multicultural organizations to succeed. This paper examines the task and relationship orientations as well as the work overload...

although gardner and his associates’ work was most influential in the field of l2 motivation, from the early 1990s onwards, their work has been criticized for several reasons. some researchers claimed that integrative and instrumental orientations were no longer able to convey the complexity of the l2 motivation construct. to examine this complexity, the present study attempted to investigate t...

In the past century, a number of psychotherapeutic orientations have gained popularity for treating mental illnesses. This module outlines some of the best-known therapeutic approaches and explains the history, techniques, advantages, and disadvantages associated with each. The most effective modern approach is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). We also discuss psychoanalytic therapy, personce...

This study investigates whether the vertical orientation may be predominantly used as an amodal reference norm by the visual, haptic, and somato-vestibular perceptual systems to define oblique orientations. We examined this question by asking the same sighted adult subjects to reproduce, in the frontal (roll) plane, the vertical (0 degree) and six oblique orientations in three tasks involving d...

Three-dimensional gradient echo (GRE) is the main workhorse sequence used for susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI), quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), and susceptibility tensor imaging (STI). Achieving optimal phase signal-to-noise ratio requires late echo times, thus necessitating a long repetition time (TR). Combined with the large encoding burden of whole-brain coverage with high re...

fundamental understanding of the goaf gas distribution in a gassy coal mine is necessary for developing effective goaf gas drainage strategies in the longwall coal mine. the goaf gas was subjected to the surface and body forces that were classified depending upon whether they acted on the surface area or the volume of the gas element. of these forces, the body forces were more predominant in di...

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how poetry and poetry therapy are useful tools in existentially oriented psychotherapeutic practice. This paper will accomplish this aim in several ways. First, a brief introduction to poetry therapy will be presented. Second, the main principles of existential therapy will be explored. Third, the congruence between poetry therapy and existential theo...
