Purpose The paper analyzes the effect of country origin (COO) image, word-of-mouth (WOM) and brand distinctiveness toward overall equity (OBE) its dimensions (brand awareness/associations; perceived quality; loyalty) in brewing sector. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative research has been conducted by adopting survey technique structural equation modeling based on a sample 401 Italian be...

Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) is the core concept of professional accreditation in engineering education, and a teaching learning approach that determines strategies based on outcomes. In context new engineering, it important to actively cultivate high quality composite talents with international competitiveness are compatible emerging industries, improving their effect accomplish training obj...

We apply the strong πNN form factor, which emerges from the Skyrme model, in the two-nucleon system using a one-boson-exchange (OBE) model for the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction. Deuteron properties and phase parameters of NN scattering are reproduced well. In contrast to the form factor of monopole shape that is traditionally used in OBE models, the Skyrme form factor leaves low momentum tra...

The two-year C OBE-DMR 53 and 90 GHz sky maps, in both galactic and ecliptic coordinates, are used to determine the normalisation of innationary universe models with a at global geometry and adiabatic density perturbations. The appropriately normalised cold and mixed dark matter models and cosmological constant dominated, cold dark matter models, computed for a range of values of b and h, are t...

The Nijmegen OBE potential D is SU(3) rotated to model the strangeness -2 sector of the baryon-baryon force. Soft core repulsion is introduced to regularize the singular nature of the OBE functions. The strength of the S0 t = 0 interaction is adjusted to model three scenarios: (1) a bound state, (2) a narrow virtual, or antibound, state, and (3) an unbound state in which the force is weakly att...

Current obesity research has begun to emphasize the importance of pretreatment assessment and more individually tailored treatment protocols. Obese binge eaters have been identified as a subgroup of the obese who do not respond well to standard behavioral treatment programs. We were interested in identifying variables that are important to consider when assessing and treating obese binge eaters...

Folk psychology postulates a spatial unity of self and body, a "real me" that resides in one's body and is the subject of experience. The spatial unity of self and body has been challenged by various philosophical considerations but also by several phenomena, perhaps most notoriously the "out-of-body experience" (OBE) during which one's visuo-spatial perspective and one's self are experienced t...

This study examined eating-disordered pathology in relation to psychopathology and adiposity in 162 non-treatment-seeking overweight (OW) and normal weight (NW) children, ages 6-13 years. Participants experienced objective or subjective binge eating (S/OBE; loss-of-control eating), objective overeating (OO), or no episodes (NE). OW children experienced significantly higher eating-disordered cog...

The role of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in the immune response makes it an attractive candidate gene for associations with disease resistance and susceptibility. This study describes genetic variability in the BoLA-DRB3 in Iranian buffaloes. Heminested PCR-RFLP method was used to identify the frequency of BoLA-DRB3 alleles. The BoLA-DRB3 locus is highly polymorphic in the study h...

Two WDM channels at 1320 nm and 1312 nm carrying RF signals are simultaneously up/down converted by a fiber-based optoelectronic oscillator. The conversion efficiency are found (obe-8 dB and the incoming signals has no effects on the local oscillator spectral purity.
