A diverse body of research has demonstrated that people update their beliefs to a greater extent when receiving good news compared to bad news. Recently, a paper by Shah et al. claimed that this asymmetry does not exist. Here we carefully examine the experiments and simulations described in Shah et al. and follow their analytic approach on our data sets. After correcting for confounds we identi...

The ultimate aim of the following pages is to explore the hypothesis that sentences containing a pronoun be analyzed as involving a topic pronoun doubling relation in a way that closely parallels the one overtly realized in Clitic Left Dislocation (CLLD) and Hanging Topic (HT) structures in Italian/Romance. In a nutshell: when a pronoun is present in the clause, a silent doubled non-overt topic...

We consider solutions to the equation detDφ = μ when μ has a doubling property. We prove new geometric characterizations for this doubling property (by means of the so-called engulfing property) and deduce the quantitative behaviour of φ. Also, a constructive approach to the celebrated C-estimates proved by L. Caffarelli is presented, settling one of the open questions posed by C. Villani in [11].
