Correcting the Past: Failures to Replicate Psi

چکیده
Across 7 experiments (N 3,289), we replicate the procedure of Experiments 8 and 9 from Bem (2011), which had originally demonstrated retroactive facilitation of recall. We failed to replicate that finding. We further conduct a meta-analysis of all replication attempts of these experiments and find that the average effect size (d 0.04) is no different from 0. We discuss some reasons for differences between the results in this article and those presented in Bem (2011).

Repair Efficient Erasure Correcting Codes for Distributed Storage Systems Master’s thesis in Communication Engineering
The current age of information technology is characterized by an ever increasing presence of digital data in the world. Digital data has become an integral part of our lives in the form of social networking, online streaming and accessing crucial data on the go. The huge amount of data generated needs to be stored in an inexpensive and reliable way. Distributed storage (DS) is a technology that...
متن کاملTriple-star: a Coding Scheme with Optimal Encoding Complexity for Tolerating Triple Disk Failures in Raid
Low encoding/decoding complexity is essential for practical storage systems. This paper presents a new Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) array codes, called Triple-Star, for tolerating triple disk failures in Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) architecture. Triple-Star is an extension of the double-erasure-correcting Rotarycode and a modification of the generalized triple-erasure-corre...
متن کاملRobust Control of a Quadrotor in the Presence of Actuators' Failure
Today, robots and unmanned aerial vehicles are being used extensively in modern societies. Due to a wide range of applications, it has attracted much attention among scientists over the past decades. This paper deals with the problem of the stability of a four-rotor flying robot called quadrotor, which is an under-actuated system, in the presence of operator or sensor failures. The dynamica...
متن کاملThe Economics of Peak Oil
Peak oil” refers to the future decline in world production of crude oil and to the accompanying potentially calamitous effects. The peak oil literature typically rejects economic analysis. This chapter, following Holland (2008), argues that economic analysis is indeed appropriate for analyzing oil scarcity since standard economic models can replicate the observed peaks in oil production. Moreov...
