Wait! I wasn't finished . . .
ISBN: 9783639174076 / Angielski / Miękka / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores how interrupters and their targets are perceived in terms of status and likability. In Experiment One, participants listened to a brief audiotaped conversation in which one person interrupted the other five times. Results indicated that interrupters were perceived as more dominant and more influential than non-interrupters, and that targets of interruption were viewed as less dominant, influential, and competent than non- targets. Furthermore, interrupters were liked less than non-interrupters. In Experiment Two, four confederates (two men and two women) systematically...

The Vilification of Arabs and Muslims
ISBN: 9783639175653 / Angielski / Miękka / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Conflict between groups does not arise in a vacuum.
To the contrary, conflicts- especially those that are enduring and seemingly intractable- are embedded in an information-rich context, often with a long and complicated history characterized by multiple forces operating at different levels of analysis (economic, political, religious, interpersonal). Yet participants and outside observers are rarely overwhelmed by such complexity and ambiguity, adopting instead a coherent depiction of the conflict, often with an unequivocal allocation of blame to one side or the other. While we may know... Conflict between groups does not arise in a vacuum.

I'm Thinking So Hard My Hands Don't Work
ISBN: 9783639173987 / Angielski / Miękka / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We all have the ability to maintain and process
information in our working memory, though some individuals have a greater working memory capacity than others. Everyday tasks are well within the normal persons working memory capacity, but at times, a great demand on mental resources will cause performance to be compromised. These studies examine how motor performance, such as hand movements, can be impaired by performing mental tasks. Also, different types of mental tasks are related to different degrees of compromised motor performance. Individuals may show differences in their... We all have the ability to maintain and process

A friend complicates matters
ISBN: 9783639177701 / Angielski / Miękka / 56 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To explain decision behavior by reducing it to utility maximization, as Kahneman and Tversky (2000) do, or to intuitive behavior, as Gigerenzer (1996) does, is to risk oversimplification. There is no single definition of rational decision behavior. The context defines what decision behavior can be evaluated as rational. In the context of morality, subjects base their decision behavior on four different ethical positions: deontology, hedonism, intuitionism and utilitarianism. In this article the classical Asian disease problem (ADP), used by Kahneman and Tversky (1981) to show the framing...

Individual Differences in Peer Relationships
ISBN: 9783639171075 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book summarizes a series of research projects
investigating the effects of self-handicapping on an individuals daily life by looking at participants peer relationship and social interactions, reactions of peers to self-handicapping behaviors, and self-presentation strategies. Self-handicapping, when disclosed to peers, was predicted by previous research to negatively affect social networks. The series of studies presented in this book illustrates that the effect of self-handicapping on peer relationships is not nearly as straightforward as previous research might suggest and not...

The role of perceptual learning in recognition memory for faces
ISBN: 9783639164527 / Angielski / Miękka / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The rated distinctiveness of a face, the orientation in which a face is seen and the race of the face, are all factors that are known to affect subsequent recognition of faces. These three factors are known as the distinctiveness effect, the orientation effect and the own-race bias. The main objective of this study was to track the extent to which these three effects develop across the lifespan. The study consisted of three experiments. Overall, the distinctiveness effect, inversion effect and own- race bias was evident among participants who were older than 8 years. Six-year-olds did not...

Cognitive Model Optimization with Parallel Genetic Algorithms
ISBN: 9783639167849 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To enable an individual differences investigation of how stress affects cognitive performance in a mental serial subtraction task a new optimization approach was developed for computing the fit of a serial subtraction cognitive model to human performance data by varying architectural parameters. The new optimization approach utilizes a modified parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) on a high performance computing (HPC) cluster together with the ACT-R cognitive architecture and a serial subtraction cognitive model. The optimization approach was highly successful in fitting the serial subtraction...

Translation and Adaptation of the EMDR Protocol to the Iranian Culture
ISBN: 9783639208757 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dr. Rasolkhani-Kalhorn produced a translation of the EMDR protocol in Farsi (Persian). In her dissertation she tells how she found psychologists in Iran to help with the translation, and to use the EMDR protocol in their field work in earthquake devastated regions of Iran. The psychologists also filled out a survey assessing the value of the translation, and use of EMDR in Iran. She considers the possible problems using the treatment in a foreign culture and shows how it could be incorporated through a country-wide effort to train EMDR therapists at the village level throughout Iran. The...

Cognitive Science of Primed Decision Making
ISBN: 9783639197419 / Angielski / Miękka / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The difference between conscious and unconscious processes is a hard issue. Usually in the literature it is argued that without a mask, participants are conscious of the stimulus, but with a mask they are not. However, how we know that participants are not still conscious of the stimulus after it is masked? In fact, all we know with real reliability is that they can no longer report on what the stimulus was. Here we argue that without a mask, subjects can report what the stimulus was. With a mask, they cannot. This captures the crucial difference and it does so in a way that is unproblematic...

The Effect of Family Size and Birth Order on an Individual's g Level
ISBN: 9783639229714 / Angielski / Miękka / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study investigated whether the environment created by being born in a specific birth order and/or family size affects individuals genetic intelligence, or g. Based on the phenomenon of rising IQ scores between generations, the fact that IQ and g are correlated and that nearly all between-family variables have been shown not to produce the rising effect, it was hypothesized that there could be a significant difference in g scores of siblings of the same family and those of different sized families born in the same position. Birth order and family size could be argued to encompass most...

Finishing Touches
ISBN: 9783639178579 / Angielski / Miękka / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Can works of art convey psychological pain? This study deals with the question of whether the paintings of famous artists who have committed suicide are reflective of their inner turmoil. The authors discovered that, in the absence of information about or interpretation by the artists, paintings provided sufficient information to enable non-expert judges to make reliable content-related judgements (e.g. destructiveness and hopelessness) that distinguished between paintings created near the time of artists' suicides and their paintings created at a time of better mental well-being. It was also...

The Thin Ideal
ISBN: 9783639231922 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From a nomadic to an agricultural society, from the Renaissance woman to the supermodel, woman has waxed and waned to coincide with the fluctuations of societal standards. With a dramatic increase in eating disorders diagnosed in the 1980s, researchers and clinicians began seeking a reason for such an increase as well as a treatment plan. This book reviews the evolutionary perspective, cultural influence, and cognitive aspect of eating disorders. Using expectancy theory, as applied to body image, the author has completed a study of expectations of thinness. Using two separate scales to...

Neuronal Encoding of Texture in Rat Whisker System
ISBN: 9783639240634 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A major challenge of sensory systems
neuroscience is to quantify brain activity underlying perceptual experiences. The rat whisker system accomplishes complex transformations of sensory information in a fast and reliable manner and is therefore an ideal candidate to provide knowledge about efficient coding mechanisms. Rats have a set of 30-some long whiskers on each side of the snout. In the somatosensory cortex, the whisker area - also known as barrel cortex - is arranged as a topographic map ...

Stereotypies and Foraging
ISBN: 9783639252095 / Angielski / Miękka / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Stereotypies in captive animals have been defined as repetitive, invariant patterns of behavior that serve no obvious goal or function. Stereotypies are commonly attributed to boredom or stress, and are typically "treated" with environmental enrichment. These enrichment items often includes food presented at times other than regular feedings. This thesis applies a "foraging loop" hypothesis to the behaviors of contrasting species of marine mammal carnivores; polar bears and walruses. Polar bears in the wild spend the majority of each day traveling to locate prey; captive polar bears spend...

La Qualité Perçue Des Mélanges Odorants
ISBN: 9786131500558 / Francuski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. En olfaction, la qualite des melanges odorants est une thematique peu etudiee. Pourtant, il s'agit la d'une dimension primordiale pour comprendre comment le sujet humain detecte, reconnait, et identifie les odeurs de son environnement et pour preciser les processus peripheriques et centraux mis en jeu dans le traitement de l'information olfactive. De plus, les odeurs que nous rencontrons au quotidien sont exclusivement des melanges complexes de molecules odorantes. L'objectif principal de cette these est de contribuer a la comprehension de la perception de la qualite odorante, et plus...
