Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg, Jessy G. DévieuxThe article reports our intervention work with Alcohol and Other Drug Abusing (AOD) People Living With HIV (PLWH). Present research has involved adapting Cognitive Behavioral Stress Management (CBSM) and other strategies to improve quality of life and health outcomes for PLWH. Historically, CBSM has used relaxation and coping skills training to reduce negative mood and improve coping behaviors. The efficacy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,757 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMining Fuzzy Weighted Browsing Patterns from Time Duration and with Linguistic ThresholdsTzung-Pei Hong, Ming-Jer Chiang, Shyue-Liang WangWorld-wide-web applications have grown very rapidly and have made a significant impact on computer systems. Among them, web browsing for useful information may be most commonly seen. Due to its tremendous amounts of use, efficient and effective web retrieval has become a very important research topic in this field. Techniques of web mining have thus been requested and developed to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,397 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of the Temperature Separation in the Ranque-Hilsch Vortex TubeSaeid Akhesmeh, Nader Pourmahmoud, Hasan SedgiThis research has been carried out in order to provide an understanding of the physical behaviors of the flow variation of pressure and temperature in a vortex tube. A computational fluid dynamics model is used to predict the flow fields and the associated temperature separation within a Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube. The CFD model is a steady axisymmetric model (with swirl) … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHuman Computer Interaction Approach in Developing Customer Relationship ManagementMohd H.N.M. Nasir, Mustaffa Kamal, Wan A.W. RozaliProblem statement: Many published studies have found that more than 50% of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system implementations have failed due to the failure of system usability and does not fulfilled user expectation. This study presented the issues that contributed to the failures of CRM system and proposed a prototype of CRM system developed using Human Computer Interaction approaches in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Contemporary Analysis of Sexual Trends and Transmitted Infections Among Outpatient at Two Public Hospitals in JamaicaTazhmoye Crawford, Michael T. Gardner, Donovan A. McGrowderResearch aimed at investigating sexual behavior and assessing intervention to improve sexual and reproductive health among young adults in Jamaica has increased in recent decades. This study was carried out to assess both positive and negative sexual outcomes e.g. sexual activity and sexual satisfaction related to sexual behavior such as multiple partners and the use or non-use of condoms among … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Factors and Limbic Vulnerability in Childhood AutismRichard LatheThe rise in prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is suggestive of a new etiology. Diagnostic substitution alone is unlikely to account for the increase, while genetic association with detoxification gene alleles points to an environmental contribution. Subtle structural anomalies in the ASD brain are widespread but limbic damage seems important for the development of behaviors diagnostic of ASD. The … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBehavioral Modeling: an OverviewRoman V. YampolskiyThis exploratory paper begins with an overview of a multidisciplinary problem of behavior modeling and correlation of different behaviors. It looks at many possible applications of such technology and proposes some novel directions for future research. From the security point of view the paper proposes and explores some novel behavioral biometrics and research paths as well as some universal descriptors … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Novel Chromosomal Abnormalities, inv(5)(p13q13) and t(7;18)(q32;q21), Associated with AutismZheng Chen, Xiao-bing Zou, Ya-nan Zhang et al.Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder defined by impairments in social interaction, communication, as well as restricted and stereotyped behaviors. While the etiology of autism remains largely unknown, the existence of genetic components has been clearly demonstrated in autistic pathogenesis. The incidence of autism is 50-100 fold greater in the population with autistic family history than the general population. Chromosomal abnormalities … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Factors Affecting Environmental Behavior of Urban Residents: A Case Study in Tehran City- IranKhalil Kalantari, Hossein Shabanali Fami, Ali Asadi, H. Movahed MohammadiEnvironmental problems such as air and water pollution, urban garbage and climate changes in urban areas are the results of human behavior. Only change in human behavior can reduce these environmental problems. Thus studying attitude and behavior of people is a precondition to change this situation. So the main objective of this study was to find out individual and social … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtein Molecular Structures, Protein SubFractions, and Protein Availability Affected by Heat Processing: A ReviewPeiqiang YuThe utilization and availability of protein depended on the types of protein and their specific susceptibility to enzymatic hydrolysis (inhibitory activities) in the gastrointestine and was highly associated with protein molecular structures. Studying internal protein structure and protein subfraction profiles leaded to an understanding of the components that make up a whole protein. An understanding of the molecular structure of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,286 accessesView PDFCite
