Characteristics of Stratum Structure and Fracture Evolution in Stratified Mining of Shallow Buried High-Gas-Thick Coal Seam by Similarity Simulation by Qin Guangpeng, Cao Jing, Wang Chao, Wu Shuo, Zhai Minghua

“…When a small-size section coal pillar (less than 10 m) is used, the complex rock structure evolution and fissure development characteristics during the stratified mining of shallow buried thick coal seam will directly affect the movement of gas transportation between the working face and the goaf and will directly affect the safety of the working face. …”

Manipulating self and other schemas to explore psychological processes associated with paranoid beliefs: an online experimental study by Anton P. Martinez, Elizabeth Milne, Georgina Rowse, Richard P. Bentall

“…In each of these conditions, information about the self was always paired with either positive face stimuli (proximity-seeking condition), negative face stimuli (self-threat condition), or neutral face stimuli (control condition).ResultsThis study failed to replicate findings as previously reported in published experiments (i.e., self-esteem, paranoia), only finding a significant effect on attachment styles on the proximity-seeking CC condition. …”

Didactic guides, a necessary resource for autonomous learning in Medical Education by Zulema Tamara Mesa Montero, Marlen Llanes Torres, Daimy Nualla Bolufé

“…This article reflects on the importance of an adequate orientation of independent work by the teacher, who must provide the student with the resources to appropriate the necessary knowledge of the subject. However, in face-to-face education, advocating for the autonomy of learning requires teachers to develop guides that allow them not only to direct, but also to contribute to the organization of the student's work and their own.…”
