Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

The “guide to Asháninka knowledge for forest management” is a document prepared by aca demics and scientists from the National University of Central Peru (NUCP) in the Faculty of Forestry Engineering, which includes the knowledge of this indigenous people about forest nature. Despite being ancestral knowledge, we believe that it can serve as a complement to the scientific study of the subject since it is based on knowledge accumulated over centuries of experience. The main purpose of this article is to determine the influence of the “Ashaninka knowledge guide for forest management” on the learning level of NUCP Forest Engineering …

The Effects Of Moderate Prenatal Alcohol Exposure On Navigation In A Delayed Non- Match-To-Place Spatial Alternation Task By Adult Male And Female Rats, Gabriela Acosta

Psychology ETDs

Prenatal alcohol exposure has been found to alter brain regions involved in spatial memory. Previous studies have shown that moderate PAE (mPAE; ~30-120 mg/dL) impairs spatial memory in male rats and damages the limbic-thalamus and hippocampus. Recent work has shown that visual discrimination memory is impaired after mPAE in a sex-specific manner such that female mice exhibit greater deficits after 15sec delay. It is unclear whether similar-sex-specific deficits would be observed in a spatial memory task or in a rat model of mPAE. Thus, the present study tests the hypothesis that mPAE would produce sex-specific deficits in a delayed non-match-to-place …

A Return To Rationality: Restoring The Rule Of Law After Daubert's Disastrous U-Turn, Andrew Jurs, Scott Devito

New Mexico Law Review

Consistency and rationality are central to the legitimacy of the modern court system. Considerable recent attention has been focused on the Court’s overturning of established precedent on abortion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. Yet, as we empirically demonstrate, the courts, through the decisions of individual judges over thirty years, have reversed the meaning of the Daubert standard for admission of scientific evidence, thereby threatening the legitimacy of the very heart of the civil justice system. In the initial years after the Daubert decision, litigants saw its reliability standard as a stricter standard than the previously used Frye “general …

Rule 11 Sanctions For Bad Discovery Advocacies, Jeffrey A. Parness, Alexandria N. Short

New Mexico Law Review

For over eighty years, Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure has authorized sanctions to combat frivolous legal arguments and factual allegations in some paper presentations. Since 1993, however, the rule has not applied to discovery. This article demonstrates how Rule 11 should be used to deter advocacy based on discovery that has “gone bad” since its initial disclosure. Disciplinary actions, malpractice claims, the discovery rules, and even the inherent sanctioning authority of the court are insufficient to deter lawyers from relying on now-bad discovery papers. Rule 11 would hold lawyers to a duty of reasonable inquiry before …

The Water Under The Bridge Is Darkening—An Analysis Of Copyright Law And The Prevalence Of Copyright Trolls, Daniel Berenger-Russell

New Mexico Law Review

In this time of modern technology and booming social media, the growth in intellectual property protection is no surprise. It logically follows that with more robust intellectual property protection there exists a greater chance of infringement. The likelihood of innocently infringing on a person’s registered copyright is at an all-time high. Due to the increased likelihood of innocent infringement, “copyright trolls” have emerged and developed unethical business tactics to prey off “innocent infringement.” Just like fairytale trolls who hide under bridges hoping to pester bystanders, copyright trolls also seek to burden peoples’ days. Not only do copyright trolls prey off …

A Comprehensive Analysis Of Neutrosophic Bonferroni Mean Operator, A. Kanchana, D. Nagarajan, S. Broumi, Dedy Dwi Prastyo

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

The Neutrosophic Bonferroni operator is a novel operator that we provide in this paper. Then the arithmetic operations for Neutrosophic Bonferroni operator is developed which tells the existence of Neutrosophic Bonferroni operator. Then its properties were discussed with special cases. To group decision-making issues with several attributes, arithmetic ranking operations and the Neutrosophic approach are used. The result is compared with the existing methodology. The suggested approach will more accurately give the decision maker the ideal attribute than the existing system does. Neutrophic multicriteria is a method of decision-making that makes use of ambiguity to integrate various criteria or factors—often …

An Evidence-Based Approach To Set Theory Paradoxism: From Set Boundary To Mixed-Fermion-Boson Condensate Hypothesis, Victor Christianto, Florentin Smarandache

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Physics thrives on precision, but paradoxes in set theory reveal limitations in our understanding of well-defined boundaries. Neutrosophic logic, challenging the excluded middle principle, introduces the concept of "betweenness" and partial belonging. This article explores among other things several possible avenues to resolve set theory paradoxism, including potential applications of neutrosophic logic in cosmology and particles, from set boundary, to the hypothetical "cosmosphere" boundary, to mixed fermion-boson condensate hypothesis. Embracing indeterminacy and fuzzy boundaries paves the way for a more holistic understanding of the universe's complexity.

Algebraic Properties Of Quasigroup Under Q−Neutrosophic Soft Set, Benard Osoba, Oyebo Tunde Yakub, Abdulkareem Abdulafeez Olalekan

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

The novel concept called neutrosophic set w a s launched to take care of indeterminate factors in real-life data. The hybrid model of neutrosophic set and soft set has been widely studied in different areas of algebra, especially in associative structures such as fields, groups, rings, and modules. In this current paper, the novel concept is further introduce to a non-associative structure termed Q−neutrosophic soft quasigroup ˆ (Q−NSG) and investigate its different algebraic properties of the quasigroups. W e shown the conditions for the sets of α−level cut of Q−NSG to be subquasigroups, the condition for each set of subquasigroups …

A Neutrosophic Study For The Transmission Of Infection With Pathogenic Fungi From Males Of Olive Fly Insects To Their Females, Amani Alhabib, Rafif Alhabib, Huda E. Khalid, A. A. Salama

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This paper presents the study of the effectiveness of horizontal transfer of local isolates of the pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) on adults of olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae (Rossi) at a concentration of 106 spores/ml in laboratory conditions (this work was carried out in specialized scientific laboratories). In addition, it is not possible to reach the desired results in such experiments effectively when the data and observations of the study are not clear and accurate. For this reason, in this paper, experimental data will be presented with inaccurate or uncertain observations using neutrosophic statistics. The purpose is to know …

Determination Of The Degree Of Relationship Between Activity Cost And Financial Management In Beef Cattle Production In A Region Of Peru, Based On Indeterminate Likert Scale And Neutrosophic Similarity, Michael Raiser Vásquez-Ramírez, Ketty Marilú Moscoso-Paucarchuco

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Activity Cost and Financial Management are two variables of vital importance in livestock production. This paper aims to measure the relationship existing between these two variables within the production of beef cattle in the Coto-Coto Chilca Livestock Fair in Peru. To do this, we selected 141 ranchers from the area to give their opinions regarding the behavior of these two variables. The data were represented with the help of an Indeterminate Likert Scale, to capture the uncertainty and indeter minacy of the respondents' opinion. Survey results were compared for the two variables using a measure of neutrosophic simi larities. Neutrosophic …

Comparison Of Vipassana Meditation With Other Mindfulness Traditions In The Response To Experimentally Induced Pain, Timothy Ian Vandiver

Psychology ETDs

This study compared various mindfulness meditators with a meditation-naïve control group on various measures of pain tolerance and response. My primary hypothesis was that meditators would show greater pain tolerance than non-meditators and that they would also show greater parasympathetic nervous system activation in response to experimentally induced pain. The results were mixed, with meditators showing no greater increase in pain tolerance post-baseline. Differences in nervous system function between the two groups were also difficult to interpret.

Another component of the study was to explore the phenomenological reports and to compare and contrast those of the meditators and non-meditators using …

The Phenomenology Of Abstract Awe: A Qualitative Study Of Lived Experiences In Psychedelic Virtual Reality, Jacob Spinks

Psychology ETDs

This thesis investigates individuals' experiences with SoundSelf, a virtual reality (VR) program inspired by psychedelic experience, focusing on its capacity to evoke awe and other self-transcendent experiences. Conducted with fifteen participants, the study involved a single VR session followed by in-depth phenomenological interviews. Through a thematic analysis, three primary themes were constructed: (a) emotions and feelings, the good and the bad; (b) non-reflective engagements, directly living experience; and (c) reflective engagements, exploring curiosity and wonder. The findings indicate that while SoundSelf can elicit a wide array of emotions and self-transcendent experiences, it does not consistently induce awe. This research contributes …

Credible Commitments, Adaptability, And Conservation Easements, Andrew P. Morriss

Natural Resources Journal

Conservation easements, a widely used tool to preserve land for conservation purposes, suffer from a fundamental flaw in lacking a means of adapting the permanent interests they create to changed conditions. This flaw is becoming more apparent as the early generation of these interests age and climate change threatens to bring more rapid demands for adaptation of existing conservation goals in light of changed conditions. Drawing on lessons from successes in international financial centers and U.S. states that are successful in jurisdictional competition, this article argues that the law should embrace measures that enable such competition in providing for shared …
