METHODS: We recruited 100 subjects with IBS as per Rome 11 criteria (50 consulters and 50 non-consulters) and 100 healthy controls, matched by age, sex and educational level. Cases and controls completed a clinical questionnaire (including symptom characteristics and medical consultation) and the following tests: rational- intelligence (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, 3rd edition); experiential-intelligence (Constructive Thinking Inventory); personality (NEO personality inventory); psychopathology (MMPI-2), anxiety (state-trait anxiety inventory) and life events (social readjustment rating scale). Analysis of variance was used to compare the test results of IBS-sufferers and controls, and a logistic regression model was then constructed and adjusted for age, sex and educational level to evaluate any possible association with IBS. RESULTS: No differences were found between IBS cases and controls in terms of IQ (102.0 ± 10.8 vs 102.8 ± 12.6), but IBS sufferers scored significantly lower in global constructive thinking (43.7± 9.4 vs 49.6 ± 9.7). In the logistic regression model, global constructive thinking score was independently linked to suffering from IBS [OR 0.92 (0.87-0.97)], without significant OR for total IQ. CONCLUSION: IBS subjects do not show lower rational intelligence than controls, but lower experiential intelligence is nevertheless associated with IBS.展开更多

The paper presents the case of a newly established network of MF organizations created for the strategic objective of not only collaboration but for optimizing inter-organizational knowledge sharing systems for the micro-financing services. The purpose of the paper is to show the method used for the creation of this network, the mechanisms for its management, and the dynamisms and success factor,~ leading to its continuous development. The findings are derived from an interview with one of its most strategic founders, and material is provided by the network, and a questionnaire is administered to the members of the network. The results imply theoretical implications to innovation management and organizational development and change since the source of the creation of this network is innovative, and for the competencies of the founders and their awareness of the importance of change lead to the creation of this network. And the results also lead to managerial implications in the micro-financing sector through the provision of a unique excellent command example to follow.展开更多

It provides for African knowledge dissemination, integration and synthesis defining the hypothetical nature of the African mankind's reality. The African reality is explained herein, in terms of the realism subject matter of idealism from the circumstantial perspectives. The ideal that formed part of the authority of eternal yesterday carried throughout from one generation to the other. The article parallels its abstraction from the search of who am "I" when "me" comes into scrutiny in the body form. It disintegrates these intangible values and measures of equal importance. The body form of normative pluralism contains the coexistent of 'T' and "me" and sustains them cooperatively. The insanity of the sober mind is often debated meaninglessly. The supposed meanings often end up meaningless sometimes and all the times; times and half a time worthless while micro scoped through non-African philosophical and intellectual minds.展开更多

Widespread societal ills such as depression and suicide seem to correlate with certain types of consumer behavior. However, current consumer choice theories don't appear to be effective in evaluating epidemiology research. This study compares existing consumer choice paradigms and introduces the linguistic paradigm as a framework for studying the organization of human thinking. The linguistic paradigm is based on the nature of human language and on spiritual wisdom. The paradigm is implemented to generate models (process templates) for the analysis of selected consumer choice issues. The potential effectiveness of these models in analyzing consumer behavior is discussed.展开更多

To learn advanced endowment service concept and method, meet the demand of higher level of pension services has become the new target and task of the urban pension service system development. The appearance of Wisdom endowment concept is to resolve the diverse endowment risk of the elderly, and meet a higher level elderly pension service demand. However, wisdom pension in our country is still in its infancy, its further development is facing many difficulties. As to these difficulties, the author of this paper will analyze from four aspects, the system, the object, technology, talent, and put forward some suggestions for promoting the development of the wisdom of endowment respectively, and make wise pension industry in China can better meet the diverse needs of the elderly for pension, and construct a harmonious society of"sense of security".展开更多

Thankfully, with "information space" as the carrier, the "systems science" as the guidance, and QIAN Xuesen's "metasynthetic wisdom system" as the core, QIAN Xuesen think tank provides the decision support for China to develop an aerospace knowledge economy and to continuously enhance the "space soft power". In this paper, the framework of the meta-synthetic wisdom system guided by systems science is presented, the relationship between basic ideas of QIAN Xuesen think tank and meta-synthetic wisdom system is explained and the construction items of aerospace hall of the workshop for meta-synthetic engineering(aerospace HWMSE) are analyzed.展开更多

The scheme will be the tourism resources virtualization to frame a wisdom tourism cloud platform based on cloud computing IAAS, PAAS and SAAS model, and use cloud computing and open source software OpenStack, Hadoop architecture design. The purpose enable the tourism resources of wisdom navel cloud system into one unified management, unified sales, unified treatment and unified service. Thus the system implement the tourism industry cluster and the collaborative development of tourism resources, improve the information processing capacity and reliability.展开更多
