Abstract:

Exposure to a rationale as a method to increase compliance with relaxation was tested on 52 subjects with stress-related problems. Subjects were randomly assigned to a rationale or no-rationale condition and were trained in progressive relaxation. Compliance during the subsequent week was measured by electronic tape-rewind counters, self-report, and objective and subjective ratings of performance 1 wk. later. Use of a rationale did not have a significant effect on compliance with relaxation. Although the subjects' self-reported practice and measures of proficiency were correlated, these measures were not significantly correlated with the rewind-counter measure of compliance. Research and clinical applications of these unexpected findings were discussed.

Abstract:

We present an application of a Training-free counter propagation network (tfcpn) to detect fabric defects. The TFCPN, which is a modification of Hecht-Nielsen's counter propagation network (cpn), learns through a simple recording algorithm devoid of any training, while retaining the topology of the cpn model. The mathematical justification for the modification is also presented. Four kinds of fabric defects—neps, broken ends, broken picks, and oil stains—most likely to be found during weaving are considered for recognition by the network. Results show that fabric defects such as these inspected by means of image recognition in accordance with the tfcpn agree approximately with initial expectations. The cpn reported in this paper is training-free, and it can learn complicated textile design problems.

Abstract:

Based on data Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas) in 2007, the people who had no or low physical activity reached 48.2 %. This condition contributes to increase number of metabolic disease cases such as: hypertension, heart disease, stroke and diabetes mellitus. Optimizing training approach especially aerobic type helps to counter metabolic diseases. Unfortunately, benefits of resistance training (RT) is less understood. RT improves muscle strength, induce muscle hypertrophy, improvement of local muscular performance, and also help to strenghtening body balance and coordination. There is interplay between training and hormone in muscle adaptation during resistance training. Hormone plays an important role in the regeneration of muscle after resistance training. The changes of hormone level cause hypertrophy. Regeneration and muscle hypertrophy are mediated by activation, proliferation and differentiation of satellite cells. It is regulated by mitotic and myogenic activity, namely insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), which serves as a paracrine or autocrine. Better understanding of homeostasis hormone during training in skeletal muscle and its ultimate purpose to counter metabolic disease will lead us to better treatment approach for the patient.

Abstract:

The government should be prepared to prevent and counteract state of the art techniques of warfare, viz.: to work out measures to oppose enemy’s information weapons; to gain information superiority; to develop a society that is immune to information; to establish a con- cept of counteraction to information warfare. The authors have examined both foreign and Russian sources of law defining the requirements for the government activities to confront the information war. They also refer to the viewpoints of foreign and Russian researchers, politicians and public figures who have narrated their opinions on the concept and features of such political and legal constructs as information war and information weapons. The problem of information warfare must be identified as a profoundly serious and damaging threat. The paper expands on some provisions defining the characteristics of information warfare and methods to resist it as well as the proposals to amend the domestic legislation to create conditions for an accurate understanding of this political and legal phenomenon. In addition, it emphasizes the view that amending the Information Security Doctrine is not enough to counterbalance the threat of IW. In a separate document it is necessary to recount all notions, requirements and methods for the government actions to bring about a gradual change in the situation, inter alia, developing sectoral (information security) legislation, training specialists in informational and psychological counter aggression, shaping public opinion through the government-run media, pursuing advocacy policy, etc.

Abstract:

Students with emotional and behavioral disorders exhibit high levels of inappropriate behaviors. Although many teachers are aware of the benefits of teacher praise, its use in classrooms remains low. Training students to recruit praise is a method to counter suppressing contingencies and increase praise rates for desired classroom behaviors. With minimal planning and training, students can begin recruiting the attention they seek while you begin delivering the praise needed to encourage and maintain appropriate behaviors.

Abstract:

Background: Existing neuromuscular injury prevention programs have relied principally on lower extremity strengthening, agility, cutting and landing technique to improve jump landing mechanics in order to prevent non-contact knee ligament injuries. Purpose: To determine whether a 6-week neuromuscular training program emphasizing core (back & hip) strengthening and dynamic balance exercises can significantly improve normalized knee separation distance (nKSD) during a standard counter-movement jump landing maneuver. Methods: Fourteen adolescent athletes (11 boys, 3 girls, ages 12-15) volunteered to undergo a 2 day/week, 6-week off-season training program. On the first day of training, the athletes underwent assessments that included 2 trials of a counter-movement jump from a 40cm platform. The tests were recorded using a video camera in the frontal plane. Using Dartfish motion analysis software, knee separation distance (KSD) was measured as the distance (cm) between the femoral condyles at the lowest point of the jump landing, and intertrochanteric distance (ITD) as the distance (cm) between the femoral trochanters. Normalized knee separation distance was computed as nKSD = KSD/ITD. The training program focused on three progressions; increasing difficulty of core strengthening exercises, balance exercises, and agility drills. One-hour training sessions were subdivided as follows; 5 min dynamic warm-up, 10 min stretching, 10 min body weight core exercises, 15 min balancing exercises, 10 min dumbbell core exercises, 15 minute agility drills, 5 min of rest/hydration breaks. The athletes repeated the counter-movement jump test at the end of the 6 weeks. Results: There was a significant improvement (t = 2.740, p = 0.017) in nKSD between post-test (0.789 + 0.372) and pre-test (0.683 + 0.323) Conclusion: A 6-week neuromuscular training program focused on core strengthening and balance significantly improved jump landing mechanics which may reduce the risk of knee ligament injury.

Abstract:

The Territorial Defence Forces (TDF, Polish abbrev. WOT) are to participate in combat counter-subversive operations, alone or in cooperation with other security actors. Using both offensive and protective-defensive forms and methods, they will create freedom of action for operational troops. Precise reconnaissance of the area, infrastructure knowledge in permanent areas of responsibility (Polish abbrev. SRO), cooperation with the non-military system (Polish abbrev. UPM), and cooperation with the local population in combination with the training of the TDF commanders and soldiers equipped with modern weaponry, reconnaissance and object monitoring systems will ensure good quality of protection while reducing the number of human resources involved. All forms and methods of conducting combat counter-subversive activities presented in the article are a compilation of the content contained in the literature on the subject and the practical conduct of training classes with cadets and officers at the Military University of Land Forces.

Abstract:

Skeletal muscle exhibits remarkable plasticity with respect to its metabolic properties. Recent work has shown that interventions such as resistance training, genetic alterations and pharmacological strategies that increase muscle mass and glycolytic capacity, and not necessarily oxidative competence, can improve body composition and systemic metabolism. We review here recent advances in our understanding of the signaling and transcriptional regulatory pathways of this strategy and review new evidence obtained from mice and humans that supports the notion that increasing muscle mass and glycolytic capacity may effectively counter insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract:

Twelve samples of water from hand-dug wells in some parts of Kaduna South and its Environs were selected using a stratified random sampling. Twenty (20mils) of concentrated nitric acid were added to each two liters of the sampled water for preservation. The samples were then evaporated and counted for Gross Alpha activity using MPC-2000-DP model gas free proportional counter at Centre for Energy Research and Training (CERT), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. Results show that, the range of alpha activity in water in the area was 0.001 to 0.413 Bq/L, with geometric mean of 0.124±0.040 Bq/L. The overall results show that, the alpha activity have their values below WHO recommended practical screening level of 0.5 Bq/L radioactivity for drinking water.

Abstract:

SummaryThis is a brief exploration of the ethical issues raised for psychiatrists, and for universities, schools and wider society, by the demand that they attend mandatory training as part of the UK government's Prevent counter-terrorism strategy. The silence on this matter to date on the part of the General Medical Council, medical Royal Colleges, and the British Medical Association is a failure of ethical leadership. There is also a civil liberties issue, reminiscent of the McCarthyism of 1950s USA. We should refuse to attend.

Abstract:

Pakistan has been a victim of terrorist activities for the past two decades. No place has been left out as not only military installations, training centers of law enforcing agencies were targeted but soft belly targets like schools, hospitals, mosques, public parks, courts, hotels and restaurants were also chosen by the terrorists. Pakistan Army is a team of professionals having a mastery at their work have been fighting the menace of terrorism effectively but Army alone cannot control it to the fullest without the will and support of the general public and without a ‘hand & glove’ relation with other facets of the society. The objective of this article is to analyze those factors which gave birth to terrorism in Pakistan. Keeping in mind theoretical nature of the study, secondary data analysis method has been used to argue the issue. This study determines that the military operations are not the only solution to counter terrorism in the Pakistan but public opinion, political will and a close and friendly cooperation and coordination is a must to address the issue. Need of the hour is to take all the political, social and economic stakeholders onboard to tackle the issue, of terrorism bluntly.

Abstract:

Currently, Nigeria’s security sector needs effective policing considering the spate of insecurity and frustrated relationship between the citizens and the police. Consequently, some officers are seen as dishonest and agents of complicity. Unlike most parts of the world where the people love, support the police, Nigeria still records threats to police-public relations owing to the attitudes of some officers who tarnish the image of the security agency through uncivilised, inhuman and unlawful acts while on duty and beyond. With qualitative data, this paper explores how training and people-oriented security education can enhance effective policing for a more secure Nigeria. This paper argues that police effectiveness should no longer be hinged only on equipping officers for counter-terrorism or establishment of special units to eradicate organised crime, but also on training them on weekly/monthly basis to respond to rapidly emerging threats to national security and trainings on enhancing collaborative police-public relations.

Abstract:

The article presents the most important issues related to fighting with asymmetric threats. The issues are introduced in the context of undertaken counter-subversive activities. A crucial element of the discussion is that the actions and their properties are presented in the form of an open set, which might be used for training purposes by forces using subversion. Such an assumption led the author to introduce the problem followed by methods and characteristics of fighting with subversion. These were the bases for presenting basic problems related to the description of counter-subversive activities and protective and defensive measures. In the further part of the article the author describes kinds and manners of counter-subversion highlighting the indicators of their effectiveness and interrelations between them. The article finishes with conclusions which synthesize the assumptions and particular parts of the article.

Abstract:

Many dogs show signs of fear during veterinary appointments. It is widely recommended to use desensitization and counter-conditioning training to reduce this fear. However, the efficacy of this method for reducing veterinary fear has not been examined. We assessed the effect of a standardized four-week training program on behavioural and physiological signs of fear in dogs with pre-existing veterinary fear. Owned dogs were randomly allocated to receive training (n = 15) or no training (n = 22; Control). Owners of dogs in the training group were instructed to perform exam-style handling on their dog and to visit the veterinary clinic weekly. Owners of control dogs were given no instructions. Fear responses were assessed before and after the training period by a blinded observer during clinic arrival and examination. Despite motivated owners volunteering to participate in the current study, 44% of owners were non-compliant to this training program. During examination, control dogs had higher odds (95% confidence Interval (CI)) of reduced posture compared to trained dogs (Odds ratio (OR): 3.79, CI: 1.03–16.3). Fear scores for trained dogs lowered during the second examination (p = 0.046), and 86.7% of dog owners reported a reduction in their dog’s fear levels across the training period (p = 0.007). When entering the clinic (p = 0.002) and during examination (p = 0.002), trained female dogs had a higher rate of lip licking than control females. The training program did not influence temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, avoidance, trembling, vocalizations, or willingness and encouragement to step on the scale. Results suggest that this four-week training program was mildly effective at reducing veterinary fear in dogs. Further research is necessary to explore the efficacy of longer, more intensive, and individualized training programs.

Abstract:

BackgroundUnderstanding the views and opinions of ambulance clinicians about counter-terrorism is limited, as are the roles they have in identifying individuals vulnerable to radicalisation. The aim of this survey was to investigate ambulance clinician views and preparedness to identify individuals at risk of radicalisation and whether the current national PREVENT training offered is suitable for this clinical setting.MethodsA purpose-designed, 18-question survey, was developed to understand staff attitudes and content knowledge of the national PREVENT training module. The survey was opened to all emergency ambulance clinicians in one UK ambulance service during August 2020, resulting in a sample of 123 responses which were analysed using descriptive and thematic approaches.ResultsMost respondents (87%; n=107) were aware of the PREVENT strategy, with almost three-quarters (73%; n=90) receiving training within the previous three years. Respondents were asked to score training received: the majority (89%; n=110) reported 5/10 or less. Whilst most (79%; n=97) identified the correct way to refer an individual, few had completed a PREVENT referral (9%; n=11). ‘Gut instinct’ was utilised by respondents to support their knowledge obtained via PREVENT training (70%, n=86). Respondents felt the national PREVENT training lacked relevance to their role and recommended ambulance-specific training packages be made available. They recognised their responsibility of identifying radicalisation and the opportunities their unique position offered to do so. Having a ‘duty of care’ and ‘moral responsibilities’ to make PREVENT referrals, and the importance of treating individuals as patients (not criminals), was also highlighted.ConclusionsAmbulance staff have highlighted the importance of a clear and robust referral pathway for individuals vulnerable to radicalisation. Current training lacks specificity and effectiveness for the ambulance service setting. As this survey was limited to one ambulance service, future research is warranted to ensure PREVENT training is appropriate for all ambulance staff.

Abstract:

Pakistan is successfully fighting against militants in its tribal areas. The threat in tribal areas has complicated security situation. Many terrorist groups allegedly operate in FATA, e.g. Hafiz Gul Buhadur Group, Molvi Nazir Group, the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, and the Haqqani Network/ Afghan Taliban. The operation Zarb-I-Azb was a huge success. Pakistan’s army destroyed many IED Factories, dismantled training Centers of the Suicide Bombers run by different terrorist groups and TTP Run Media Centers, exposed detention centers of militants and recovered foreign currency during Operation Zarb-i-Azb. For long term peace and stability in tribal areas, the government must carry out reconstruction and development programs aon a large scale. There is a need to rebuild the capacity of the local population. Free education, rehabilitation and de-radicalization programs must be initiated to mainstream FATA youth.

Abstract:

The Post-school Education and Training (PSET) policy seeks to address the education and training needs ofpost-school youth not in education, employment nor training (NEET). The problem of youth NEET has beenresearched from many perspectives. However, there is a dearth of knowledge about the responses, views and actions ofpost-school youth NEET living in this precarious situation. This paper analyses the resistance, critical agency andinitiatives of youth; organisers; and facilitators at a youth development and organisation centre in a township inGauteng. The study is framed by the notion of ‘critical’ agency (Gramsci: 1971) and Bourdieu’s concept of 'strategies'that mediate structure and agency. These concepts enable a focus on critical agency that emerge withinseverely constraining social conditions. Data were collected through the following sources and methods: from a'youth dialogue' amongst engaged youth; ethnographic interviews with post-school youth themselves; interviews withkey individuals such as organisers, leaders and facilitators of programmes; and observations of literacy classes offeredat the centre. Data analysis revealed resistant counter discourses amongst the youth to school and current PSET;acceptance of education for employment; desire for higher quality education; and clear ideas of alternativepedagogies. In addition to these counter discourses the paper highlights the critical agency of key individuals in theface of debilitating structural constraints. Implications for the post school education and training system are raisedand some recommendations are made.

Abstract:

Environmental stimuli, when paired with reward, can influence behaviour in maladaptive ways, for example, by encouraging overeating or addiction. Such behaviour can be sensitive to reward value manipulations, under circumscribed conditions, but whether reward-seeking is also sensitive to stimulus value manipulations remains unclear. Thus, the current experiment investigated whether reducing the hedonic value of a reward-paired stimulus would reduce reward-seeking behaviour. In total, 36 participants successfully completed a single-response Pavlovian-instrumental transfer (PIT) task with a counter-conditioning procedure. The Pavlovian phase associated three conditioned stimuli (CSs) with money at 100%, 50%, or 0% contingency. Counter-conditioning then followed for the experimental group, who saw the 100% CS paired with unpleasant pictures, while the control group saw only neutral images. Instrumental training required participants to learn a button-pressing response to win money. The transfer phase contrasted instrumental responding during baseline and CS presentation. Both experimental and control groups liked the 100% CS more than the other CSs after Pavlovian training, but counter-conditioning reduced this 100% CS liking. In transfer, the experimental group showed an abolition of appetitive PIT, while the control group showed maintenance of appetitive PIT. However, this group difference was only evident in response vigour, not response initiation. In summary, CS hedonic value influences cue-potentiated instrumental responding. More specifically, hedonic value of a reward-paired cue influences the vigour of instrumental responses, but not the decision to initiate a response. These data may have relevance to smoking cessation policies, where the introduction of health warnings may be viewed as a real-world example of counter conditioning.

Abstract:

n the years of Civil War the military counter-intelligence of the White Army began to carry out political investigations and as a result its importance increased significantly. In this regard, the personnel of the military counter-intelligence agencies that directly ensured the security of the anti-Bolshevik state formations became particularly important. The conditions of the Civil War had a strong influence on it. The issues of selection, placement, training of personnel of military security agencies went beyond their sphere of activity and were of great importance for the construction of the entire white statehood. The following conclusions were drawn on the basis of this research: in the years of Civil War, military counterintelligence agencies experienced an acute shortage of professionally trained personnel; the main reasons for this were the need to staff the newly created military security agencies in the territories of white governments after their liquidation by the Soviet authorities and the significant expansion of counterintelligence staff in the years of Civil War; the personnel policy in the military security agencies included a politicised approach to personnel selection; the level of professional training of counter-intelligence personnel has significantly decreased; the selection of personnel for military security bodies was carried out haphazardly and situationally, in connection with which random people often entered their service.

Abstract:

The aim was to determine the mechanisms facilitating exercise performance in hot conditions following heat training. In a counter-balanced order, seven males (V̇o2max 61.2 ± 4.4 ml·min−1·kg−1) were assigned to either 10 days of 90-min exercise training in 18 or 38°C ambient temperature (30% relative humidity) applying a cross-over design. Participants were tested for V̇o2max and 30-min time trial performance in 18 (T18) and 38°C (T38) before and after training. Blood volume parameters, sweat output, cardiac output (Q̇), cerebral perfusion (i.e., middle cerebral artery velocity [MCAvmean]), and other variables were determined. Before one set of exercise tests in T38, blood volume was acutely expanded by 538 ± 16 ml with an albumin solution (T38A) to determine the role of acclimatization induced hypervolemia on exercise performance. We furthermore hypothesized that heat training would restore MCAvmean and thereby limit centrally mediated fatigue. V̇o2max and time trial performance were equally reduced in T38 and T38A (7.2 ± 1.6 and 9.3 ± 2.5% for V̇o2max; 12.8 ± 2.8 and 12.9 ± 2.8% for time trial). Following heat training both were increased in T38 (9.6 ± 2.1 and 10.4 ± 3.1%, respectively), whereas both V̇o2max and time trial performance remained unchanged in T18. As expected, heat training augmented plasma volume (6 ± 2%) and mean sweat output (26 ± 6%), whereas sweat [Na+] became reduced by 19 ± 7%. In T38 Q̇max remained unchanged before (21.3 ± 0.6 l/min) to after (21.7 ± 0.5 l/min) training, whereas MCAvmean was increased by 13 ± 10%. However, none of the observed adaptations correlated with the concomitant observed changes in exercise performance.

Considerations of client problems and solutions counter to mainstream professional literature are not likely to be introduced in the training curricula of rehabilitation counselors. Counselors, therefore, may lack the knowledge of such viewpoints and be disadvantaged in many counseling situations. This article presents opposing viewpoints regarding the areas of alcoholism, learning disability, Bio-psychiatry, and psychological diagnosis. It suggests that these and other opposing viewpoints should be part of initial training and continuing considerations for all counselors. Suggestions for further reading are offered.

Abstract:

In the phenomenon of transfer along a continuum (TAC), initial training on easy items facilitates later learning of a harder discrimination. TAC is a widely replicated cross-species phenomenon that is well predicted by certain kinds of associative theory. A recent report of an approximately opposite phenomenon (i.e., facilitation by initial training on hard items) poses a puzzle for such theories, but is predicted by a dual-system model (COVIS). However, across four experiments, we present substantial evidence that this counterintuitive finding was in error. Rather, the result appears to be a false positive and, as such, should not form part of the evidence base for COVIS nor be considered as a counter-example to the pervasive TAC phenomenon.

Abstract:

Agent-mediated automated negotiation is a key form of interaction in the e-commerce environment. Agents reach an agreement through an iterative process of making offers. However, agents are prone to conceal their private negotiation information, which decreases the efficiency of negotiation. In this paper, an ensemble learning-based negotiation method is proposed. The new method labels the proposals automatically by mining the implicit information in negotiation history data. Then, the labeled proposals become the training samples of the ensemble learning algorithm, which generates the estimation of the opponent’s utility function. At last, based on the utility function of both sides, a win-win negotiation counter-proposal is generated through a particle swarm optimization algorithm. The experimental results indicate the benefits and efficiency of the proposed method.
