Tradition under Postmodernity. Reflexive Socialization

Socialization and attentional deficits under focusing and divided attention conditions.

We conducted two studies to test and refine the hypothesis that, when undersocialized individuals focus on events of immediate interest, they allocate too large a proportion of their processing resources to those events and have little attention available for processing other important events. College students who completed the Socialization (So) scale (Gough, 1960) performed visual and auditor...

The Rhetorical Phronimos: Political Wisdom in Postmodernity

Postmodernity and a hypertensive patient: rescuing value from nihilism.

Much of postmodern philosophy questions the assumptions of Modernity, that period in the history of the Western world since the Enlightment. These assumptions are that truth is discoverable through human reason; that certain knowledge is possible; and furthermore, that such knowledge will provide a basis for the ineluctable progress of Mankind. The Enlightenment project is underwritten by the c...

‎Finite iterative methods for solving systems of linear matrix equations over reflexive and anti-reflexive matrices

A matrix $Pintextmd{C}^{ntimes n}$ is called a generalized reflection matrix if $P^{H}=P$ and $P^{2}=I$‎. ‎An $ntimes n$‎ ‎complex matrix $A$ is said to be a reflexive (anti-reflexive) matrix with respect to the generalized reflection matrix $P$ if $A=PAP$ ($A=-PAP$)‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we introduce two iterative methods for solving the pair of matrix equations $AXB=C$ and $DXE=F$ over reflexiv...
