Abstract:
This paper analyses the theory of entrepreneurial marketing (EM), its evolution, and dimensions which are available to measure the EM. The EM theory was developed as an interface between the two major disciplines’ of marketing and entrepreneurship. Researchers, scholars, and academics have been debating and nourishing the theory of EM for thirty-year period. Initially it was considered as an ideal marketing concept and strategy to enrich marketing activities and business performance of small and medium scaled enterprises (SMEs). Today, as consumers, customers and marketers, we are living in one global village and experiencing different types of buying and selling patterns. This digital era facilitates us to experience the globalization and international marketing. So far, the global market is constituted with different types and sizes of business units and those business units together generate ultimate power to handle the market and its rivalry. At present it is being declared as an enthusiastic business development factor to reach progressive levels of business life cycles without considering the size of the business unit. The purpose of this paper is to analyze development of the theory of entrepreneurial marketing based on the past literature. It consists of three parts and basic information is described by the first part. Discussion of the development of EM theory and its dimensions are considered in the second part and the Conclusions of this study are presented in the third section.

Abstract:
In many tasks related to reasoning about consequences of a logical theory, it is desirable to decompose the theory into a number of components with weakly-related or independent signatures. This facilitates reasoning when signature of a query formula belongs to only one of the components. However, an initial theory may be subject to change due to execution of actions affecting features mentioned in the theory. Having once computed a decomposition of a theory, one would like to know whether a decomposition has to be computed again for the theory obtained from taking into account the changes resulting from execution of an action. In the paper, we address this problem in the scope of the situation calculus, where change of an initial theory is related to the well-studied notion of progression. Progression provides a form of forward reasoning; it relies on forgetting values of those features which are subject to change and computing new values for them. We prove new results about properties of decomposition components under forgetting and show when a decomposition can be preserved in progression of an initial theory.

Abstract:
Readings of covert progression have expanded the study of rhetorical criticism but usually limit themselves to analyzing short stories. By analyzing Frank Miller’s 300, this article extends covert progression to comics, a medium in which language and images crucially interact. In addition, reading 300 for its covert progression also contributes to reassessing a work surrounded by controversies over its quality and ideological bias. The article first discusses the critical background of 300, assesses style—a basic element of covert progression—in comics, and introduces a tool of cultural-semantic analysis necessary to understand 300. The article then reads the overt plot and analyzes the narrator’s voice to assess distances between implied reader/author, narrator, and characters, which previous criticism has established. Next, the article analyzes the covert progression of the story by following the overt plot along the sequence curiosity ! suspense ! surprise and reinterpreting that sequence, analyzing images and combinations of images and language, with an emphasis on stylistic traits. The article closes by discussing the significance of covert progression for 300 and of extending covert progression to the reading of comics.

Abstract:
Most L2-learners are taught a language on the basis of a textbook. But are these textbooks arranged according to the learners’ needs? For the present study the grammatical structures and their progression in an Italian-language textbook were analysed, and they were compared to the learners’ speaking ability to cross-check the degree of correspondence between what is taught following the textbook and what is actually learned. The question is asked in how far textbook design should consider the findings of current SLA research. It is suggested that even though Processability Theory is right to predict that language acquisition develops in stages, instruction need not be strictly sequenced. Above all it is important to distinguish between input, intake and expected output.

Full text
Abstract:
The authors reviewed 67 articles that discussed and/or tested human behavior theories from social work journals published in 2004 in order to assess the level and quality of theory progression. The articles were further sorted into Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) Foundation Curriculum content areas of HBSE, practice, policy, field education, values & ethics, diversity, populations-at-risk/social and economic justice, and research for purposes of categorization. Results indicated that HBSE and practice were by far the largest group of articles reviewed.Also found was that social work has a limited amount of theory discussion in the content areas of field, values and ethics, diversity, and populations-at-risk/social and economic justice. Thirty-three articles were found to demonstrate theory progression, eight articles presented new/emerging theories, and 26 articles discussed or critiqued theories without presenting evidence of theory progression.

This study aims to investigate the distributive features of thematic progression patterns in research article and analyze the reasons that cause such features based on Halliday’s thematic structure theory and Huang Guowen’s model of thematic progression patterns. Results showed that concentrated progression mainly concentrated in Introduction section, while derived progression appeared most frequently in Methods section. This study found that the communicative goals of four sections in IMRD structure and the features of research article influenced the distribution of thematic progression patterns.

Full text
Abstract:
The first known mathematical solution for finite height, periodic waves of stable form was developed by Gerstner (1802). From equations that were developed, Gerstner (1802) arrived at the conclusion that the surface curve was trochoidal in form. Froude (1862) and Rankine (1863) developed the theory but in the opposite manner, i.e., they started with the assumption of a trochoidal form and then developed their equations from this curve. The theory was developed for waves in water of infinite depth with the orbits of the water particles being circular, decreasing in geometrical progression as the distance below the water surface increased in arithmetical progression. Recent experiments (Wiegel, 1950) have shown that the surface profile, represented by the trochoidal equations (as well as the first few terms of Stokes' theory), closely approximates the actual profiles for waves traveling over a horizontal bottom. However the theory necessitates molecular rotation of the particles, while the manner in which waves are formed by conservative forces necessitates irrotational motion.

Abstract:
Inspired by contemporary criticism(s) levelled against evolutionist conceptions of history present within much classical social theory, this article seeks to discuss alternative conceptions of historical time, modernity, and coloniality within the works of Marxist-inspired thinkers who have sought to tackle the problematic aspects of evolutionism and ‘historical progress’ head on – namely, Antonio Gramsci, Walter Benjamin, and Frantz Fanon. After discussing orthodox Marxism’s ambivalent relation to notions of historical necessity and human agency, the article turns to discussing Gramsci’s anti-economistic conception of hegemony and Benjamin’s and Fanon’s respective conceptions of the ‘dialectics of rupture’ in order to present alternative conceptions of historical time which partly or fully depart from orthodox Marxism’s tendencies towards evolutionism, albeit whilst retaining a focus on dialectics, power struggle, and revolutionary transformation.

Abstract:
In this article, we develop a theory of gameplay labour, acknowledging the paradigm of political economy yet grounded in game design and play, called ‘cultivation play’. In most understandings of game work, theorists traditionally explain digital labour in games as inherently difficult or manipulative. Instead, we propose a theory that explains how gameplay work can be organized around a design heuristic – character progression – that is rewarding, given the objectives and interests of different kinds of players. We explicate our theoretical intervention through an analysis of four games: Stardew Valley, Grand Theft Auto V, The Witcher 2 and The Witcher 3. We specifically examine upgrade paths, what we call character progression tasks, wherein levelling up, progressing, gaining in-game skills and working towards goals operate to create an environment of gameplay work that players may find engaging.

Abstract:
Social workers are taught to strive to link theory with practice. A primary source for social workers to update theory and practice knowledge is the myriad of social work journals. However, how much discussion of theory occurs in social work journals? The authors developed criteria to evaluate the degree and quality of theory discussion and progression in social work journals. They used the criteria to evaluate 885 articles from 30 journals published in the year 2002. Great variability in theory discussion was found. The majority (71.7%) of articles contained no theory discussion (discussion that mentions a theory superficially but does not provide refinement of the theory). Few (9.5%) of the articles had theory progression (an article which is an empirical study or conceptual explanation that advances a theory in clarity, evidence base, or precision). Those articles that include theory provide a low quality of theory discussion or progression. Implications for practice and education are discussed.

Abstract:
Before the development and implementation of the first PI3K inhibitor (alpelisib), the presence of a mutation in the PIK3CA gene had only prognostic value: it determined the unfavorable course of luminal HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (testing for mutations was not part of routine screening methods). Achievements in the treatment of HR+HER2- mBC are primarily associated with the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors, which allowed not only a significant increase in the median progression-free survival while maintaining high quality of life, but also significantly increased overall survival of patients with luminal HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. However, subgroup analyses demonstrate that the presence of the PIK3CA mutation is an independent factor in decreasing progression-free time and overall survival, even in patients treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors. Mutations of the PIK3CA gene are diagnosed in 30-40% of luminal metastatic breast cancer patients, they are associated with an increased risk of relapse and disease progression, are associated with a significant reduction in survival rates and treatment effectiveness, and determine the development of primary and secondary resistance to endocrine therapy. Standard endocrine therapy with fulvestrant combined with alpelisib has significantly improved treatment outcomes in patients with HR+HER2-metastatic breast cancer with the PIK3CA mutation who previously received treatment for advanced disease or had progression during adjuvant therapy. This combination is now included in all major international guidelines and is a priority therapy option. Testing for PIK3CA mutations is the current diagnostic standard in luminal HER2-negative mBC. The review presents an update of the main clinical trials with alpelisib, treatment results from real clinical practice, and also considers aspects of use in pretreated patients with different medical history. The article outlines the main recommendations for the prevention and correction of adverse events, and presents our own experience of using alpelisib in a patient with a classic course of breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation.

Full text
Abstract:
This study tests the respective roles of pitch-class content and bass patterns within harmonic expectation using a mix of behavioral and computational experiments. In our first two experiments, participants heard a paradigmatic chord progression derived from music theory textbooks and were asked to rate how well different target endings completed that progression. The completion included the progression’s paradigmatic target, different inversions of that chord (i.e., different members of the harmony were heard in the lowest voice), and a “mismatched” target, a triad that shared its lowest pitch with the paradigmatic ending but altered other pitch-class content. Participants generally rated the paradigmatic target most highly, followed by other inversions of that chord, with lowest ratings generally elicited by the mismatched target. This suggests that listeners’ harmonic expectations are sensitive to both bass patterns and pitch-class content. However, these results did not hold in all cases. A final computational experiment was run to determine whether variations in behavioral responses could be explained by corpus statistics. To this end, n-gram chord-transition models and frequency measurements were compiled for each progression. Our findings suggest that listeners rate highly and have stronger expectations about chord progressions that occur frequently and behave consistently within tonal corpora.

Abstract:
The set {1, 25, 49} is a 3-term collection of integers which forms an arithmetic progression of perfect squares. We view the set {(1, 1), (5, 25), (7, 49)} as a 3-term collection of rational points on the parabola y = x2 whose y-coordinates form an arithmetic progression. In this exposition, we provide a generalization to 3-term arithmetic progressions on arbitrary conic sections [Formula: see text] with respect to a linear rational map [Formula: see text]. We explain how this construction is related to rational points on the universal elliptic curve Y2 + 4XY + 4kY = X3 + kX2 classifying those curves possessing a rational 4-torsion point.

Abstract:
In this lecture, I will draw upon my research career to present my latest ideas about career decision-making and career progression. Career decision-making was one of my first research interests, as part of a longitudinal study of the short-lived Training Credits scheme for young people, in the early 1990s. Based upon that work, I, Andrew Sparkes and Heather Hodkinson developed a new theory of career decisionmaking, which we termed ‘Careership’. Since then, further research conducted by myself and other researchers has thrown further light on Careership. In this lecture, I will explain how such new evidence confirmed major parts of the Careership theory, whilst showing the need for some significant modifications to other parts of it. I will conclude by briefly identifying some issues for research, policy and practice that arise from what this research and theorising show.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper carefully examines Judith Butler's ideological change after Gender Trouble through reading Precarious Life. The issue of sexual autonomy emphasized in Gender Trouble is extended to thinking about relationality in Precarious Life. Even the progressive content of freedom can be violent if it is contained in a single universality that does not consider speaker’s position.
 This is Butler's cognitive change that demanding liberation itself cannot be understood outside of the speaker's position or relationship with others. The encounter with others due to the 9/11 incident and the American reaction to it act as a decisive moment that brought about this cognitive shift. The United States, as the First World, waged war in the name of ‘freedom’ and ‘progression’, excluding others called Islam. Precarious Life is a text that contains Butler's thoughts and reflections on her position as a first-world intellectual. How can the demand for freedom be contained in the competition between various cultural contexts and multiple cultural norms rather than a single universality? To answer this question, Butler reconstructs universality in terms of cultural translation. The universality including cultural translation is not acknowledging the diversity of each position, but is a process of breaking down the sovereign status of the subject by understanding the alterity essential to the formation of the self. This is not a process of inclusion or assimilation, but a change in the normative system of both languages. Butler explains this process of translation as ecstatic relationality. Ecstatic relationality goes beyond simple emotional empathy and shows that the other is at the root of the composition of the subject, and that we are all dependent on the social system.
 Butler criticizes the norms that dehumanize the other by not responding to the other's address, and argues for breaking down the privileged status of the people in the first world. The ethical responsibility shown in Precarious Life is the process of cultural translation as a self-limiting practice to change the norms of her place as a first-world intellectual.

For (3), it is not obvious, but it is true that {\mathrm{cs}^{*}(G)} has two elements, and so is an arithmetic progression.

Abstract:
Objective: This study aimed to develop a substantive theory on the process of overcoming attrition among returning students in an Associate Degree Nursing program in a private school in Arizona.Methods: A qualitative design was utilized for this study. The Classical Grounded Theory approach provided a systematic process of data collection, analysis and synthesis that led to the emergence of the Attrition to Completion Progression Theory. Theoretical sampling through in-depth interviews of ten participants who experienced temporary attrition and was successfully able to come back to succeed within the program provided a rich source of data and unique perspective of the phenomenon.Results: Four themes emerged from the grounded theory approach. The themes that emerged are: Attrition as an interplay of multiple factors; Ways of coping with attrition; Changes and modifications; and Finding new meanings as the core category. The emergent theory provided an insight into the process that the participants went through and the perceived contributory factors leading to the attrition.Conclusions: Understanding the interplay of these factors paved for a better understanding on how current and future students, faculty, and administrators can prevent attrition and assist returning students to become successful in the program towards completion.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is multifold.Key aspects discussed include exploring the extent of theory discussion and progression in social work journals for the year 2004; discussing the necessity of theory in social work research and practice; reviewing previous research literature regarding evaluation of theory discussion and progression; proposing criteria for defining theory in social work journals; and presenting findings from the current study concerning theory discussion and progression in social work journals. Results: Of the 1,168 articles reviewed from 37 journals, 71 (approximately 6%) met the criteria for theory development with empirical base. Thus, a minimal number of articles (3 out of 71 or 4.2%) evaluated, based on the criteria in the theory quality scale (Table 1), received high quality ratings. Conclusion: Based on the results yielded by the analysis, we assert that social workers need to make a conscious effort to include theory in practice decisions.

Full text
Abstract:
The preference for bimoraic stressed syllables in pre-Old High German necessitated the phonological restructuring of syllables with stressed, short vowels either by early implementation of open syllable lengthening (non-shifting dialects north of the Benrath line) or by triggering an autochthonous phonological shift of+t,+p,+kafter short vowels (shifting dialects). From there, the OHG dialects “progressed” though the rest of the shift in a largely parallel fashion. Asymmetry of the shift of+-pand+-kand geminate+-ppand+-kkwas caused by place bias, however, especially in the Rhenish dialects where tone accents could sometimes delay or block the shift of these segments. The greater susceptibility of the more marked labial and velar affricates (-pf- and −kx-) to weakening limited their later occurrence to dialects outside the Rhineland. The reanalysis of aspirated+t- [th],+p-[ph],+k-[kh] as affricates in initial position was possible only when the corresponding geminate had already shifted, exemplifying both the effects of place bias as well as a kind of phonological reanalysis Blevins (2004) calls “choice.”

Abstract:
Early architects paid much attention to the relationship between space and time: the earliest buildings had structures linked to the cycle of the heavenly clock. Indeed, the notion of time emerges naturally from the diurnal rise and fall of the Sun as well as the more leisurely progression of the seasons. Space, on the other hand, is defined by the relationship between objects, implicit as a void. What is more, there is no natural scale, no spatial equivalent of the length of the day.

In a recent paper, Thorne [5] proved the existence of arbitrarily long strings of consecutive primes in arithmetic progressions in the polynomial ring 𝔽q[t]. Here we extend this result to show that given any k there exists a string of k consecutive primes of degree D in arithmetic progression for all sufficiently large D.

Abstract:
In Ramsey theory one wishes to know how large a collection of objects can be while avoiding a particular substructure. A problem of recent interest has been to study how large subsets of the natural numbers can be while avoiding three-term geometric progressions. Building on recent progress on this problem, we consider the analogous problem over quadratic number fields. We first construct high-density subsets of the algebraic integers of an imaginary quadratic number field that avoid three-term geometric progressions. When unique factorization fails, or over a real quadratic number field, we instead look at subsets of ideals of the ring of integers. Our approach here is to construct sets ‘greedily’, a generalization of the greedy set of rational integers considered by Rankin. We then describe the densities of these sets in terms of values of the Dedekind zeta function. Next, we consider geometric-progression-free sets with large upper density. We generalize an argument by Riddell to obtain upper bounds for the upper density of geometric-progression-free subsets, and construct sets avoiding geometric progressions with high upper density to obtain lower bounds for the supremum of the upper density of all such subsets. Both arguments depend critically on the elements with small norm in the ring of integers.

Abstract:
This research that concerns managers' career progression in Indonesia was carried out in sixteen companies. It is intended to analyze the differences between female and male managers' career progression, by using human capital theory, family power theory, self-selection, industry differences, and also to examine the possibilities about discrimination. The research samples are managers who have been working at least for five years and have been geographically transferred (among cities) to promote their career. The method of sample determination was performed by purposive sampling. The data were obtained by interviews and distributing questionnaires directly and by mail. The respondents consisted of 40 female managers and 114 male managers, with a response rate of 34%. Statistical data processing was conducted by using hierarchial and full regression. The result of the analysis about managers' career progression in Indonesia show that female managers are lagged behind male managers in geographic mobility, but female managers are more advanced than male managers in salary progression and promotion. Discrimination doesn't take role in managers' career progression in Indonesia. Female managers who want to advance in career, have to be better in education than male managers’ education level.Keywords: career progression, human capital theory, family power theory, self-selection, industry differences

Abstract:
This paper gives an example of how to address the challenge of designing a learning progression that describes student thinking, with the necessary specificity to align instructional opportunities and assessment tools. We describe the Conceptual Underpinnings of Evolution project and the iterative process of developing a novel learning progression theory, while critically testing that theory using structured interview data analyzed with Rasch models. We investigate elementary students’ capacities for reasoning in biology, specifically focusing on microevolution as a strategic core idea for students between the ages of seven and nine. The learning progression theory informed the design of two instructional modules which aimed to build on students’ intuitions. The modules provided opportunities for students to engage in scientific practices framed to develop more adequate explanations about how organisms may change over time, in accordance with environmental changes. Aligning the learning progression, instructional activities, and structured interview assessment was critical for meeting two of our underlying assumptions: that students’ reasoning capacities rely on instructional opportunities; and that students’ assessment scores must be interpretable in terms of learning progression levels. We share both initial and late-stage versions of the learning progression and describe how item-level information and Rasch analyses helped both to specify the learning progression levels and to define the two underlying dimensions.

Abstract:
This paper deals with the modeling of the immune response to the evolution of the progression of endothelial cells which have lost the differentiation and start their evolution towards metastatic states. The modeling is developed in the framework of the so-called kinetic cellular theory. The model is critically analyzed on the basis of analytic solutions, asymptotic behaviors and numerical simulations that illustrate the scenarios predicted by the model. Finally, possible developments and generalizations that could describe other known phenomena are pointed out.

Abstract:
Typically, the life of a component containing rolling contacts is defined as the time to the initiation of a fatigue spall. Initiation of a spall does not always cause the component to stop performing its designed function. Operating the component past the initiation of a spall increases the heat generation rates and vibrations, eventually leading to total failure. A ball/v-ring test rig was used to initiate and progress spalls on bearing balls where spall progression was measured as a function of time, and vibrations monitored using accelerometers. A spall progression life mathematical model for balls endurance tested in the v-ring rig was created by extending the Ioannides–Harris fatigue life theory. Also, excessive vibratory loading was determined to be the major cause of total component failure.

Abstract:
 This article is dedicated to studying thematic progression as a text-forming and discourse-forming phenomenon. The notion of thematic progression is analyzed in terms of the functional sentence perspective theory, theory of actual division of the sentence, and discourse linguistics. Thematic progression contributes to the cohesive development of discourse, distribution of given and new information that needs to follow certain patterns. That is why the article also dwells on the thematic progression patterns and peculiar characteristics of their themeatic-rhematic organization. Basic thematic progression patterns are: simple linear thematic progression, thematic progression with a continuous (constant) theme, thematic progression with derived themes and thematic progression with a split rheme. They are considered to be universal, peculiar to many languages. That is why thematic progression patterns of English discourse units translated into Russian language often remain the same. Their high informativity, grammatical complexity, as well as differences in grammatical systems of English and Russian languages, necessity to adapt these units to the norms and rules of the Russian language can cause changes in thematic progression patterns of the translated units. The abovementioned facts can also lead to compression / decompression of information, changes of the word order in Russian translations.
