Dividing the Pleistocene Pie

Perceptions of Pie - Expanders and Pie - Slicers in Negotiations

Inspired by Kelley and Stahelski (1970), we examined selfand peer-evaluations of negotiator behavior and how they related to actual performance. People had more accurate perceptions of their pie-slicing skills than their pie-expanding skills. Pieexpanders tended to see others as more competitive in general than did pie-slicers. Meanwhile, pie-slicers out-performed pie-expanders. Further, those ...

Different acoustic variables such as pitch, volume, timbre and position can be used to represent quantitative, qualitative and categorical aspects of the information. Such sonifications are particularly useful for those with visual impairments; they are also beneficial in circumstances where visual representations would be impossible to use or to enrich a graphical realization. We demonstrate m...
