Textbooks - Science topic

Hello,

Do you guys have any recommendations for Psychology textbooks that i could use for some of my classes intended to 1st year students in Psychology.

The classes are :

- Introduction to cognitive psychology.

- Introduction to developmental psychology.

- Differential Psychology.

- Research methods.

- Statistics.

Thank you for your help,

Someone recommended textbooks on dermatopathology, such as McKee or Weddon, but I can't download them for free.

Dear colleagues, which do you think are the best books on teaching Automatic Control Systems as an undergraduate course? I believe it depends on the Department you are teaching of course. My views are in the video below. Please add more suggestions. The inclusion of MATLAB material in the syllabus is also important. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmvuRZCx_XA

Dear colleagues, over the years I have read many books on learning Latex. Some short, others too long. Which do you think are the best ones for someone wanting to pick up Latex? My views are in the video. Feel free to suggest any others. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-OEF3DhuRo

Incorporating religious stories in English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks would help in fostering a deeper connection with Allah and His teachings as they enhance virtual values. Additionally, these stories might play a significant role in enhancing learners' spiritual awareness. Do you agree?

any research that should I read to get an idea for doing my research later?

I would need a detailed mathematical derivation of mimetic finite difference operators in cartesian as well as curviliniear, in particular spherical coordinates. I also need to know how the pole problem in spherical coordinates can be tackled when using mimetic operators. Does anybody have a hint for me?

In an ELISA, what are Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 antibodies being used as detection antibody? Does it refer to where the detection antibody binds to the drug? Not able to find any answers for this on google or textbooks.

Hi,

I would like to test a time series variable for unit root. I have one model with 4 impulse dummies, one model with impulse and step dummies, and one last model with only step dummies (I have estimated the dummies with Autometrics in PcGive). In addition to the dummies I have several lags of the variable of the endog. variable.

1. Does the model with only step dummies imply structural breaks? (I´m a bit confused what the difference is between step and impulse dummies). If not - can I use the ADF-test to test for unit root when including only impulse dummies? If I use the optimal lags when including impulse dummies, my variable is I(0) with the ADF test.

2. I´m looking for a unit root test for multiple breaks. Does anyone know of a test for multiple breaks + a less technical explanation of the test?

3. Or does anyone know of a textbook which describes the GLS based test in a less technical way?

I have found one; the GLS based unit root test with multiple structural breaks by Carrion-i-Silvestre, J., Kim, D., & Perron, P. (2009).

Dear all,

I'm trying to compile a list of Foreign Language textbooks that tap into Cognitive Linguistics. I intend to carry out a content analysis of these published textbooks.

Can you suggest some (recent) titles?

Many thanks!

Hello.

I'm currently working on a control system for a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) as part of my thesis project. Traditionally, fuzzy logic controllers (FLCs) use the error (e) and the derivative of error (\frac{de}{dt}) as inputs. However, in my implementation, I decided to use the integral of the error (\frac{1){s}) instead of the derivative after reading that it's possible in a certain textbook. Surprisingly, this approach has yielded very good results in my simulations. Despite the positive outcomes, my thesis supervisor mentioned that they had never encountered the integral of the error being used as an input in FLCs before. To ensure the robustness and academic validity of my approach, I need to back it up with some literature or resources that discuss this methodology.

Has anyone here used the integral of error in their fuzzy logic controllers, or come across any papers or textbooks that mention this practice? Any guidance, references, or suggestions would be immensely helpful.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Panel Error Correction Model (PECM) not the model Panel Vector Error Correction Model

Although the two terms are discussed separately in many textbooks, some other epidemiologists suggest that confounding is a type of bias.

It is worth considering their perspective and exploring the relationship between these concepts. By understanding how confounding and bias are related, we can improve our research methods and draw more accurate conclusions.

My textbook is about social-science interviewing - and nothing to do with Archaeology.

(And I dont know what the overall population of items numbers are, in terms of which I've got more than 99%).

Perhaps there's 400 items overall in Qualitative Social research, and only 002 in Archaeology?

All thermodynamics textbooks say that the Clausius formulation and the Kelvin formulation are equivalent to the entropic formulation - and this is proven. Meanwhile, there is only one proof scheme, which turns out to be wrong. The matter is serious, so at this stage there is no point in going further with the description.

Hi

I am interested in multi-agent systems, and I want to start reading and reserach on multi-agent systems. I need textbooks to lerarn the basics. Also, any papers about recent advenaces specifically realated to networks.

Thank you

"In a rectangular coordinate system with the vertex of the conical surface as the origin, the conical surface can be represented by homogeneous equations of x, y, and z"

This is a conclusion we learnt from our textbook on Analytic Geometry,but we have no idea why it is right,why it can be treated as a theorem,whether this theory only holds in rectangular coordinate system...My geometry teacher said that he can't find any proof of this "theorem" in any literature,and the writer of the textbook didn't provide proof as well.

So if anyone understands it and knows why,please answer my question and provide me with a rigorous proof:)Thank you sooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!

I am working with a nitrogen sensitive species trying to induce somatic embryogenesis. The textbooks I've gone through so far insist that casein hydrolysate - or another reduced nitrogen source - is crucial to initiating embryogenic callus. but many of the protocols I've read don't include CHL or any other nitrogen sources. So what's the truth here? Is this reagent crucial or not? I've ordered the casein hydrolysate just in case, but am trying to figure out if I'll even need it.

I was going to use Hergenhahn's: An Introduction the History of Psychology, but I am really unhappy with the book's treatment of the intelligence testing era of the late 1800s and early 1900s, which was responsible for all manner of social injustice. The term "retardation" is repeatedly used without any explanation of the historical context of the term and without fully appreciating the discrimination and oppression engendered by it (largely as a result of the intelligence testing craze in the West). I'm afraid of requiring my students to read this, especially because I work at an institution with a large population of students with disabilities.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a text that treats social stratification and its consequences on disenfranchised groups with more empathy and greater care?

What basic, post graduate textbook on research methods (including qualitative and mixed methods equally) do you recommend? I am tasked with writing a research program for a new masters class for our psychology department. However, the powers that be wish this to be used as a general class and shared with the business folks. The current class is only business, and their textbook is clearly geared toward research within and for the benefit of businesses. I'm looking for alternatives which would work better for both business and psychology. Thoughts? TY!

Textbooks depict the innate immune response as ending with the onset of the adaptive immune response. Recognizing that the "end" of the innate immune response is not well-defined in my question, what is your molecular hypothesis for the turning off of innate immune pathways during the handoff of responsibility to adaptive immunity?

Details: We know that each of the following molecular mechanisms is capable of inhibiting type I interferon signaling: 1) SOCS1/3 suppression of cytokine signaling, 2) ZBED2 competition for ISREs, 3) phosphatases such as SHP1 that can reverse JAK-mediated phosphorylations, and 4) other mechanisms more recently suggested, such as IL-10 and IL-6 or TGFb.

But what do you see as the likely chain of cause and effect that turns off innate immune signaling at the "appropriate" time?

Comments and questions are welcome.

The decomposition voltage is less than the reversible voltage. The second law of thermodynamics is wrong again.See screenshot for details

This is the content from university textbooks, and scientists have been humiliated by the Second Law of Thermodynamics.

Please recommend relevant studies! We plan to research new textbooks developed in accordance with the concept of the New Ukrainian School.

I am working on medical waste treatment problems&solutions, and I need preferably a technical overview of the various equipment used in healthcare waste management (combustion, autoclaving, shredding).

Can anyone suggest a textbook or article where I can find that?

For example, in learning Newtonian mechanics:

* generality and power. Its been applied to stars, moons, planets, dark matter, elections, photons, clusters of galaxies, solid, liquids, skyscrapers, bridges, cars, aeroplanes, satelites, rockets

* applied Successfully to systems of one or many bodies, 10^20 particles, fields

* has described an enormous number of forces or interactions among variables that describe the system

* applied to computer science in cellular automata and led to quantum mechanics via modifications

If each sub unit had such a style of first few chapters, instead at the end as miscellaneous reading, how much more interested would students be to understand its principles?

Adaptive teaching is a must to optimise every leaner's learning. How can schools and community (Teacher Trainers, Curriculum Development Committee, Textbook Publishers, Textbook Authors and other), contribute to adaptive teaching?

For my thesis proposal I crucially need to have some information about Japanese high school English textbooks. I would be so glad if you had time to answer these questions.

Thank you so much in advance

1. What is the name of an English textbook that is being used in the last year of senior high school in Japan and Iraq? Is that just a unique textbook or every state has a different one? Which one is more popular then?

2. How can I have access to those textbooks? Is there any website where I can download the PDF format of Japanese and Iraqi English textbooks?

3. Is there a possibility for ordering those textbooks and shipping them to Iran?

4. How can I have access to the upstream national documents of Japan and Iraq (mostly the educational ones)?

I've got to design a methanol/water rate based designed distillation column. As part of this I need to calculate the mass transfer coefficient of the system but I don't know how and can't find out how to in textbooks? Can anyone help? May thanks

Unlike journals that ensured ideas that are not author's own are duly cited and referenced, and also, author's ideas/observations could be backed up by citing other peoples work and referencing them in journals. Which is more like a validation of research findings, if it agrees with previous discoveries, in my opinion.

With these observations which one would you recommend for reading to accumulate scientific knowledge, Textbook/Journal?

Do you think a textbook is reliable enough to be recommended if you have not gone through all the pages and agree with all that is written in it, especially for young or upcoming researchers that may not know whether what is written is wrong or right?

Do you think that there should be a change in this precedence regarding textbooks in the nearest future? Thanks.

Is the loss coefficient (K), used in the determination of head losses, is independent of size of the piping and the material type?

I have looked in multiple textbooks and online resources but this answer is not clear.

I started reading the textbook, Research and Evaluation in Education and Psychology this week. In Chapter 2: Evaluation; Mertens (2020) asserts that evaluation and research share similarities, however the differences between the two types of systematic inquiry are clearly distinguishable. (p. 86) After learning more about research and evaluation I have come to the conclusion that the two practices do not overlap as much as you may think they do.

Taking into consideration stark differences between the goals, processes and terminology used in research vs. evaluation, I would argue that these two practices are not intertwined with one another. That is not to say that they can never be used together, rather that they can be used independently and with separate goals in mind.

I would love to hear some different perspectives on research vs. evaluation and how you may be applying them in your own work.

Thank you.

I work in a liberal art based university. I would like to propose a course about energy storage and conversion technologies. However, it is a challenge to find a textbook that could be used to teach this topic to non-science students.

I was saddened to receive a message today that Dr Jean Garnier, a dear friend, mentor, and scientific colleague, has passed way. He held the Order of Honors in Agronomy (Mérite Agricole), Officer, Order of Honors in Education (Palmes Académiques), Knight. He has also held a laureate position at the Ministry of Agriculture, USA, and the position of Research Director at the French National Institute for Agricultural Research. He was until quite recently the Editor in Chief of Biophysical Reviews, a journal sponsored by the International Union of Pure and Applied Biophysics of which he has been President. He was a widely respected expert in protein science and a founder of bioinformatics. He wrote many scientific papers, and he was a huge influence on my work and the work of many others. We coauthored a textbook on proteins and protein engineering that was widely used in universities. Under his guidance, our research and early papers together, particularly on the prediction of protein secondary structure and protein modeling, achieved many thousands of citations. The GOR method is still widely used today, and I saw that it played a significant role in the published research of many protein scientists responding to the rise of COVID-19. We kept in touch, and he will be very much missed.

What is the best textbook for instructors for helping their learners to build social impact/enterprise start-ups? ie including PPT slides and other learning resources?

I am looking at example 1, Chapter V, Sec. 19 of the Dover edition of Wasow’s “Asymptotic Expansions for Ordinary Differential Equations”. This is the latest edition of which I am aware. Although this example is an excellent one for demonstrating shearing transformations and determining an appropriate change of variables, the alleged fundamental system to eqn. (19.30) is clearly erroneous. The following formula is likewise in error although consistent. Is this overlooked in all reviews and revisions? After all, a fundamental series is, by definition, an exact solution and not just a formal series. One may expect addition of lower-order terms in (19.30), but the author explicitly rules this out and claims to have achieved a terminating series. Can any experts shed some light on this oversight/neglect?
