In this study, it was examined whether the anxiety and aggression observed in children were predicted by irrational beliefs anxieties of parents, marital conflict perceived children, automatic thoughts problem solving skills. The study group is comprised 304 elementary school fourth-grade students (170 females 134 males) attending a state located city İzmir, Turkey, during 2016-2017 academic ye...

In this paper, we determine the isomorphic classes of Morita equivalent subalgebras of irrational rotation algebras. It is based on the solution of the quadratic Diophantine equations. We determine the irrational rotation algebras that have locally trivial inclusions. We compute the index of the locally trivial inclusions of irrational rotation algebras.

Let b ≥ 2 be an integer. We prove that the b-ary expansion of every irrational algebraic number cannot have low complexity. Furthermore, we establish that irrational morphic numbers are transcendental, for a wide class of morphisms. In particular, irrational automatic numbers are transcendental. Our main tool is a new, combinatorial transcendence criterion.

This paper reveals errors within Norwich et al.’s Entropy Theory of Perception, errors that have broad implications for our understanding of perception. What Norwich and coauthors dubbed their “informational theory of neural coding” [1] is based on cybernetics, that is, control and communication in man and machine. The Entropy Theory uses information theory to interpret human performance in abs...

The crisis of public opinion is a major challenge faced by the government in Internet era, and governance has always been focus attention academic community. In opinion, subject relatively single, often departments are situation fighting alone. From perspective cooperative governance, this paper discusses following two issues: "Is it possible for individuals to participate governance?", "What a...

For simplicity, we follow the rules: k, n, p, K, N are natural numbers, x, y, e1 are real numbers, s1, s2, s3 are sequences of real numbers, and s4 is a finite sequence of elements of R. Let us consider x. We introduce x is irrational as an antonym of x is rational. Let us consider x, y. We introduce x as a synonym of x. One can prove the following two propositions: (1) If p is prime, then √ p ...

Background and aims The addictive nature of compulsive buying implies that mood disturbances, stress, and cognitive biases that underlie compulsive buying might operate in ways similar in both genders. In the current study, we aimed to test hypothetical pathways of mood compensation and irrational cognitions, which may explain compulsive buying tendencies. We also examined potential gender diff...
