Objective: Generalized anxiety disorder is one of the most common anxiety disorders in the general ‎population. Several studies suggest that anxiety sensitivity is a vulnerability factor in generalized ‎anxiety severity. However, some other studies suggest that negative repetitive thinking and ‎experiential avoidance as response factors can explain this relationship. Therefore, this study ‎aime...

In this paper, we obtain the cross-correlation spectrum of generalized bent Boolean functions in a subclass of MaioranaMcFarland class (GMMF). An affine transformation which preserve the cross-correlation spectrum of two generalized Boolean functions, in absolute value is also presented. A construction of generalized bent Boolean functions in (n+ 2) variables from four generalized Boolean funct...

The progressive censoring scheme is a method of data collecting in reliability and life testing which has been of intensified interest in recent years. In the present paper, we prove some characterization results on generalized Pareto distribution based upon the independency and expected values of some functions of progressive type-II right censored order statistics.

The aim of this study is twofold. First, we expand on the literature by testing whether generalized trust is negatively related to anti-immigrant sentiments in Europe. Second, we examine to what extent the relation between generalized trust and anti-immigrant sentiments is dependent upon cross-group friendships. We apply multilevel linear regression modeling to representative survey data enrich...

The generalized nested logit model is a new member of the generalized extreme value family of models. The GNL provides a higher degree of flexibility in the estimation of substitution or cross-elasticity between pairs of alternatives than previously developed generalized extreme value models. The generalized nested logit model includes the paired combinatorial logit and cross-nested logit model...

The present work demonstrates the C-S cross-coupling reaction between aryl halides and thiols using nickel nanoparticles (Ni NPs) supported on reduced graphene oxide (Ni/RGO) as a heterogeneous catalyst. It is observed that the uniformly dispersed Ni NPs supported on RGO could exhibit excellent catalytic activity in C-S cross-coupling reactions and the catalytic application is generalized with ...

Many data situations require the consideration of network effects among cross-sectional units observation. In this paper, we present a generalized panel model which accounts for two features: (i) three types on right-hand side model, namely through weighted dependent variable, exogenous variables, as well error components, and (ii) higher-order due to ex-ante unknown network-decay functions or ...
