John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, Rumi, and a host of others were mystics in this pure sense. All true mystics would make a sharp distinction between the dream state and the state of divine union. For example, the Upanishads, a Hindu scripture that deals with mystical union, ...
In this example, however, because all factor loadings are equal, estimated factor scores are equally-weighted composites, and thus are perfectly correlated with the sum scores. In this situation, MR has the same population value as coefficient omega (McDonald, Citation1978), which describes the ...
As many as 30,000 persons leave Sicily ann ually; for example, 26,400 persons left in 1971. Sicily is one of the least economically developed regions of Italy. Important industrial sites were built between the 1950’s and the 1970’s. In 1973, industry employed 30.6 percent of the work...
A single correlation between one model and the brain data, as is typically done using the regression approach, provides limited information. Indeed, the level of explanation at which one can infer identity based on model fits is difficult, because similar functions do not automatically imply ...
However, an alternative, and perhaps related, explanation was recently proposed for the role of vitamin D in T2DM prevention based on its potent immunomodulatory functions 81. 1,25(OH)D modulates the production of the immunostimulatory IL-12 and the immunosuppressive IL-10 82 and VDRs are ...
Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) is one possible explanation for dynamically induced collapse of the wave-function during a quantum measurement. The collapse is mediated by a stochastic non-linear modification of the Schrödinger equation. A consequence of the CSL mechanism is an extremely tin...
Even if models are quite different in their explanation and predictive power, they can still be useful for a variety of different aims. Therefore, a pragmatic approach for evaluating heterogeneity models will be important for moving forward, since it is unlikely that we will converge on single ...
(Kemmiset al.Citation2014) as a theoretical lens to consider how arrangements enable and constrain the practices of programme directors at the site, focusing on time. For the purposes of explanation, the sections below discuss time and the role of the programme director using the constructs of ...
explanation of complex and poorly understood medical-context phenomena.Citation33We used theoretical sampling and CGT analytic tools to probe participants’ implicit meanings and actions to better understand the processes associated with making recommendations about completing an ACP, or treating a PWND ...
Any adhesive material may be used for the adhesive layer as long as it has enough tacky or adhesive strength to the substrate and the base layer of the film. For example, use may be made of conventional adhesives and pressure-sensitive adhesives such as those of acrylate, ethylene vinyl acet...
