The effect of a one-time mindfulness intervention on body and mind in healthy adolescents using multimodal measurements by Angelika Ecker, Charlotte Fritsch, Daniel Schleicher, Ricarda Jacob, Stephanie Kandsperger, Romuald Brunner, Irina Jarvers

“…Participants also completed the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS-D) with the subscale “mindfulness” as an assessment of trait mindfulness, and the State-Trait Anxiety-Depression Inventory (STADI).ResultsOur results showed no significant interactions between time and intervention, either subjectively or physiologically. For heart rate, we found a main effect of time. For all subjective parameters, we observed a main effect of trait mindfulness. …”

Study of Research and Development Processes through Fuzzy Super FRM Model and Optimization Solutions by Flavius Aurelian Sârbu, Monika Moga, Gavrilă Calefariu, Mircea Boșcoianu

“…The aim of this study is to measure resources for R&D (research and development) at the regional level in Romania and also obtain primary data that will be important in making the right decisions to increase competitiveness and development based on an economic knowledge. As our motivation, we would like to emphasize that by the use of Super Fuzzy FRM model we want to determine the state of R&D processes at regional level using a mean different from the statistical survey, while by the two optimization methods we mean to provide optimization solutions for the R&D actions of the enterprises. …”
