Some narcissistically impaired patients present a particularly difficult therapeutic challenge. They often cannot tolerate interpretations because they view interpretations as humiliating evidence that they are shamefully defective. For these patients, “treatment by attitude” and without significant interpretation may be the only way they can feel safe enough to allow the therapeutic process to...

the goal of this study was to assess attitude towards plagiarism in faculty members of medical school at tehran university of medical sciences. one hundred and twenty medical faculty members of tehran university of medical sciences were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. they were asked to answer to valid and reliable persian version of attitude towards plagiarism questionnaire. attitude t...

in zero acceptance number sampling plans, the sample items of an incoming lot are inspected one by one. the proposed method in this research follows these rules: if the number of nonconforming items in the first sample is equal to zero, the lot is accepted but if the number of nonconforming items is equal to one, then second sample is taken and the policy of zero acceptance number would be appl...

This study proposes a new approach for single-sampling plan by determining sample size and acceptance number. The proposed approach is based on a two-step methodology. In the first step: quality management step, different single sampling inspection plans were generated by running an optimization model for different possible acceptance numbers. While, in the second step: Multi-Attribute Decision...

in acceptance-sampling plans, the items of an incoming lot are inspected one by one. if the number of nonconforming items in sample is equal zero, the lot is accepted but if the number of nonconforming items is equal to one, then second sample is taken and the policy of zero acceptance number would be applied for the second sample. in this paper, a mathematical model is developed to design sing...

unsustainability and precarious conditions of agricultural production have caused this sector be associated with risk . crops insurance is efficient tool for controlling and reducing production and market risk and stabilizing farmers' income. in this study, the thinking system approach by using of i think software is used for analyzing and modeling of the effects of different alternatives of po...

Ce document compare l’état de santé des immigrants et leur utilisation des services de santé à ceux de la population d’origine canadienne à l’aide de données provenant de deux cycles (1985 et 1991) de l’Enquête sociale générale (ESG). Les résultats obtenus démontrent que l’état de santé des immigrants de même que leur utilisation des services de santé ne sont pas significativement différents de...

the paper presents an economical model for double variable acceptance sampling with inspection errors. taguchi cost function is used as acceptance cost while quality specification functions are normal with known variance. an optimization model is developed for double variables acceptance sampling scheme at the presence of inspection errors with either constant or monotone value functions. the m...
