Assertive behaviour

Lead through assertive behaviour, self-confidence, expertise, unconventionality, and concern for followers needs. 

Like the geometry of Euclid and the mechanics of Newton, quantum mechanics is an axiomatic subject. By making several assertions, or postulates, about the mathematical properties of and physical interpretation associated with solutions to the Scluodinger equation, the subject of quantum mechanics can be applied to understand behaviour in atomic and molecular systems. The fust of these postulates is ... 

The influence of pressure has also been used to tune the ST properties of these ID chain compounds. Application of hydrostatic pressure ( 6 kbar) on [Fe(hyptrz)3] (4-chlorophenylsulfonate)2 H20 (hyptrz=4-(3 -hydroxypro-pyl)-l,2,4-triazole) provokes a parallel shift of the ST curves upwards to room temperature (Fig. 5) [41]. The steepness of the ST curves along with the hysteresis width remain practically constant. This lends support to the assertion that cooperative interactions are confined within the Fe(II) triazole chain. Thus a change in external pressure has an effect on the SCO behaviour comparable to a change in internal electrostatic pressure due to anion-cation interactions (e.g. changing the counter-anion). Both lead to considerable shifts in transition temperatures without significant influence on the hysteresis width. Several theoretical models have been developed to predict such SCO behaviour of ID chain compounds under pressure [50-52]. Figure 5 (bottom) also shows the pressure dependence of the LS fraction, yLS, of... 

The methods discussed above have been widely used to assess the effect of either continuous or intermittent nicotine on nAChR functions and brain biochemistry (Matta et al. 2007). For models of nicotine withdrawal, see the chapter by Malin in this volume. Given the intrinsic advantages and limitations of each approach, the non-contingent nature of most administration regimes and the absence of associated cues, it is important that these paradigms are not assumed to model tobacco addiction per se. Sometimes, the experiments are conducted in concert with behavioural measures (e.g. precipitation of withdrawal with somatic signs), which give more credibility to the assertion that a state of nicotine dependence has been achieved (Kenny and Markou 2005). 

Although SSRl overdose can cause seizures, coma and cardiac abnormahties (Barbey and Roose 1998), these toxic effects occur only in large overdoses or in combination with other drugs. Fatality rates are substantially lower than with TCA overdose (Mason et al. 2000). Public attention has been drawn to reports of suicidal and aggressive thoughts and behaviour associated with initiating SSRls (Healy 2003). The scientific basis for this assertion is disputed and continues to be debated, but it does not appear that SSRl treatment is associated with increased suicidality on a population level (Carlsten et al. 2001 Khan et al. 2003). 

Those relatives caring for children whose patterns of behaviour were troubling, described bewilderment as to how to best respond, particularly as the children got older and more physically assertive. Two of these grandparents described feeling increasingly powerless to influence their grandsons and were somewhat intimidated by them too ... 

In this connection, it is worth bearing in mind an assertion by George Kelly, a psychologist who developed a theory of behaviour based on each individual s personal construct of their world ... 

Now that the recipes for locating the various changes in the qualitative form of the stationary-state locus have been presented, we can go on to examine the origin of the behaviour in the cubic autocatalytic system with the additional uncatalysed step, and for the non-adiabatic non-isothermal CSTR which has been asserted in previous sections. 

There remains one objection—of a less precise kind but felt by many chemists. It is that third-order kinetics as embodied in the representation of step (1) are intrinsically objectionable. If the equations had to be interpreted as representing elementary steps, this would be a weightier consideration, but it has also been asserted that the oscillatory properties of certain other model schemes collapse completely (King, 1983 Gray and Morley-Buchanan, 1985) if the third-order steps therein are replaced. Accordingly it is most desirable to establish whether oscillations and other exotic behaviour arising from a cubic rate-law of the form k ab2 can also arise from a series of successive second-order or bimolecular steps. Similar interests have been expressed previously by Tyson (1973) and Tyson and Light (1973).

Considerations of the polymerisation stereochemical behaviour of catalysts belonging to class V with pseudohelical symmetry (based on lopsided metallocene precursors) still warrant more in-depth investigations. However, an assertive statement can be made that, the more unsymmetrical the catalysts are, the more m diads there are in syndiotactic polypropylene. On the other hand,...

Much data has been accumulated on the behaviour of chloropicrin in contact with metals. According to Ireland, chloropicrin attacks steel slightly and copper and lead very energetically. American publications, however, assert that chloropicrin attacks all metals. The corrosion of metals is confined to superficial...
