Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards a Theory and View of Teaching Compressed and Abbreviated Research Methodology and Statistics CoursesJames Carifio, Lisa EriksonOne of the highly questionable effects of educational reform and other curriculum reshaping factors at both the high school, post-secondary and graduate levels has been the shift to teaching compressed, pared-down or abbreviated courses in still needed or required subject-matter that became de-emphasized in the current educational reformation. Research methodology, particularly the highly quantitative and experimental kind and statistics, are … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,760 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Simulation of 2_D Turbidity Currents and Wall JetM.H. Shojaeefard, K. Goudarzi, H. Ghasvari JahromiDense underflows are continuous currents, which move down the slope due to the fact that, their density are heavier than ambient water. In turbidity currents the density differences arises from suspended solids. Vicinity of the wall make density currents and wall jets similar in some sense but Variation of density cause this flows more complex than wall jets. An improved … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,034 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison Between the New and the Old Versions of Jordan Seismic CodeM.A. MusmarThe study comes as a vital step to shed120 light upon the purport of the recently published version of Jordan Seismic code (JSC), and how the drawbacks of the old version are surpassed. The new JSC code oversteps the old provisions, in that input parameters now have pronounced and significant physical meanings. The study concludes that the conversion from service … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,868 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterventions and Patterns of Risk in Adolescent HIV/AIDS PreventionRobert M. Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg, Geri Donenberg, Jessy G. DévieuxMid-way through the third decade of experience in preventing HIV/AIDS among adolescents, behavioral interventions and outcomes for high risk subgroups have generated evidence extremely instructive for navigating future priorities in reducing transmission risk behavior. Youth who abuse alcohol or drugs, who are detained or incarcerated, or have mental health co-morbidity such as externalizing disorders, represent the most significant challenge to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
