THE INVENTORY OF PERSONALITY ORGANIZATION-REALITY TESTING SUBSCALE AND BELIEF IN SCIENCE SCALE: CONFIRMATORY FACTOR AND RASCH ANALYSIS OF THINKING STYLE MEASURES.

The Inventory of Personality Organization-Reality Testing Subscale and Belief in Science Scale: Confirmatory factor and Rasch analysis of thinking style measures.

The Inventory of Personality Organization-Reality Testing Subscale (IPO-RT) and Belief in Science Scale (BIS) represent indirect, proxy measures of intuitive-experiential and earthbath facial wipes analytical-rational thinking.However, a limited appraisal of factorial structure exists, and assessment of person-item functioning has not occurred.This

Multi-Armed Bandit Regularized Expected Improvement for Efficient Global Optimization of Expensive Computer Experiments With Low Noise

Computer experiments are widely used to mimic expensive physical processes as black-box functions.A typical challenge of expensive computer experiments is to find the set of inputs that produce the desired response.This study proposes a multi-armed bandit regularized expected improvement (BREI) method to adaptively adjust the balance between explor

Mangiferin reduces high-starch diet-induced lipid accumulation and liver damage by modulating triglyceride metabolism in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides)

High-starch diets may lead to growth retardation, liver chainsaw file damage and lipid accumulation in fish.Although mangiferin (MGF) can regulate triglyceride metabolism and protect liver health in mammals, studies on its role in fish are limited.The largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) were fed four different groups of diets, including a contr
