The purpose of this study was to translate in Greek the IBQ-G and investigate the validity and reliability of the Greek version. The Greek translation of IBQ-G has been given in a sample of employees in two public organizations at two different time points. A questionnaire which has been created for the purpose of this study also has been administered to assess similar influences behaviors. The...

According to Self-Determination Theory (SDT), basic psychological needs will be influenced by other individuals’ interpersonal behaviors. The objective of the present research is to extend the validity of the Interpersonal Behaviors Questionnaire (IBQ and IBQ-Self) to the sport context. The measure was designed to assess perceptions of interpersonal behaviors of others (IBQ) or selfreports of i...

In this paper, we investigate the Cauchy problem for the generalized IBq equation with damping in one dimensional space. When σ = 1, the nonlinear approximation of the global solutions is established under small condition on the initial value. Moreover, we show that as time tends to infinity, the solution is asymptotic to the superposition of nonlinear diffusion waves which are given explicitly...

The authors explored the genetic and environmental underpinnings of individual differences in temperament with a sample of 604 3- to 16-month-old infant twins and their parents. Mothers completed Rothbart's Infant Behavior Questionnaire (IBQ), and a subsample of 140 9-month-old twins participated in behavioral assessment of temperament in the laboratory as well. For IBQ Smiling and Laughter and...

‎In this paper we focus on the Cauchy problem for the generalized‎ ‎IBq equation with damped term in $n$-dimensional space‎. ‎We establish the global existence and decay estimates of solution with $L^q(1leq qleq 2)$ initial value‎, ‎provided that the initial value is suitably small‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we also show that the solution is asymptotic to the solution $u_L$ to the corresponding linear equa...

This study describes a revision of a widely used parent-report measure of infant temperament, the Infant Behavior Questionnaire (IBQ; Rothbart, 1981). A rationally derived instrument was developed that included nine new scales and minor modifications of the seven scales of the IBQ. Parents of 360 infants, equally distributed over three age groups: 3–6 months; 6–9 months; and 9–12 months of age,...

The discriminant validity of measures of abnormal illness behaviors and psychopathology was examined in three samples differing in illness proneness: a sample of young healthy university students (n = 38), a general community sample (n = 36), and a sample of clinical psychiatric outpatients (n = 36). Adjustment to illness was measured using the Illness Behaviour Questionnaire (IBQ; Pilowsky & S...

During an Internet distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, attackers pose as a superpower overloading bandwidth and services that otherwise would have been lightly used by genuine users. These legitimate users send few packets and occasionally back-off and fail while competing for resources. The Internet architecture provides only modest support for verifying the true origin of a packet or...
