The importance of the role of the patient in outcome in schizophrenia
(1993)The Family Interpersonal Perception Test (FIPT) was used to explore the relationships between schizophrenic patients and their parents, and how these related both to relapse in the year after discharge and to improvement ... -
The importance of tropical root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) and factors affecting the utility of Pasteuria penetrans as a biocontrol agent
(2000)The conclusions of a collaborative study of the occurrence and importance of root-knot nematodes (RKN, Meloidogyne spp,) and of their control agent, Pasteuria penetrans, in parts of Europe, Africa, South America and the ... -
The Importance of Wide-field Foreground Removal for 21 cm Cosmology : A Demonstration With Early MWA Epoch of Reionization Observations
(2016-03-01)In this paper we present observations, simulations, and analysis demonstrating the direct connection between the location of foreground emission on the sky and its location in cosmological power spectra from interferometric ... -
Imports, Mechanisation and the Decline of the English Plaiting Industry: The View from the Hatters' Gazette, Luton 1873 - 1900
(2017-02-10)Between 1870 and 1900, the straw plaiting industry changed from being one that substantially contributed to local rural and family economies, to one in irrevocable decline. Researching the reasons for this decline is ... -
Imposed Switching Frequency Direct Torque Control of Induction Machine Using Five Level Flying Capacitors Inverter
(2019-06-30)The paper proposes a new control structure for sensorless induction motor drive based on a five-level voltage source inverter (VSI). The output voltages of the five-level VSI can be represented by nine groups. Then, the ... -
The Impossibility of Isolation in Wallander
(2011-10-01)This article considers perspectives of isolation as explored in the Swedish television series Wallander (2005-present). The series is thoughtful about the striving of a person, region and nation to preserve selfhood in an ... -
‘An impossible dream’? Non-binary people’s perceptions of legal gender status and reform in the UK
(2022-02-11)The meaning and significance of gender is currently a focus of heated and, often, polarised debate in the UK and elsewhere. This article provides a new perspective in the gender debate through focused exploration of UK-based ... -
Impossible Movement Illusions
(2018-12-20)Past research has used the phi phenomenon to create the illusion of one object moving through another. This article presents three optical illusions that are conceptually similar, yet little known within academic psychology. ... -
Impossible problems and careful expositions : reply to Myin and De Nul.
(John Benjamins Publishing Company, 2006)Myin and De Nul suggest that there may be no “precise link between what Hutto calls the object-based schema and the family of ‘hard problems’ about consciousness (including the ‘problem of phenomenal experience’ as well ... -
The impossible, necessary outside of nature: a Luhmannian intervention into post-humanist ecology
(2023-07-23)In the wake of climate change, social theory has been subject to a surge of new materialist and posthuman approaches that reconfigure ontology and politics beyond the modern nature/culture binary which the Anthropocene has ... -
Impoverished empowerment : `meaningful' action sequence generation through bandwidth limitation
(2011)Empowerment is a promising concept to begin explaining how some biological organisms may assign apriori values expectations to states in taskless scenarios. Standard empowerment samples the full richness of an environment ... -
Impregnation and encapsulation of lightweight aggregates for self-healing concrete
(2016-10-15)This study investigated a technique of impregnating potential self-healing agents into lightweight aggregates (LWA) and the self-healing performance of concrete mixed with the impregnated LWA. Lightweight aggregates with ... -
The Imprint of Clump Formation at High Redshift. II. The Chemistry of the Bulge
(2023-04-07)In Paper I, we showed that clumps in high-redshift galaxies, having a high star formation rate density (ΣSFR), produce disks with two tracks in the [Fe/H]–[α/Fe] chemical space, similar to that of the Milky Way’s (MW’s) ... -
Imprinting interference fringes in massive optomechanical systems
(2011-12-13)An interferometric scheme for the creation of momentum superposition states of mechanical oscillators using a quantum mirror kicked by free photons is analyzed. The scheme features ultrafast preparation with immediate ... -
Improved Aerosol Deposition Profiles from Dry Powder Inhalers
(2015-05-20)Lung diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are major health burdens on the global population. To treat diseases of the lung, topical therapies using dry powder inhalers (DPIs) have been ... -
Improved and quality-assess emission and absorption line measurements in Sloan digital sky survey galaxies
(2011-08)We present a new database of absorption and emission-line measurements based on the entire spectral atlas from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) 7th data release of galaxies within a redshift of 0.2. Our work makes use ... -
Improved blood glucose control, cardiovascular health and empowerment in people attending X-PERT structured diabetes education
(2021-12-02)The aim of the audit was to assess the change in key health markers in people with, or at risk of, diabetes who attended X-PERT structured diabetes education. Data from X-PERT programmes are entered into a central database. ... -
