Despite South Africa's history of violent political conflict, and the link between stressful experiences and smoking in the literature, no public health study has examined South Africans' experiences of human rights violations and smoking. Using data from participants in the nationally representative cross-sectional South Africa Stress and Health study (SASH), this analysis examined the associa...

Chapters 4 and 5 provided experimental data on sensitivity to agreement violations in children with developmental dyslexia. This chapter studies processing of agreement violations and phrase-structure violations in adults with developmental dyslexia. The method of testing is different from that used in the previous chapters. Rather than focussing on the overt linguistic behaviour, the reactions...

A model of sentence comprehension postulating that Subject-Verb-Object relations are specified prior to Noun-Adjective relations received support from a study of the speed at which sentences with various kinds of violations could be rejected. Compatible with the sequential model was the finding that Noun-Verb and Adjective-Noun double violations did not result in shorter RTs than Noun-Verb sing...

The most common reason for plan repair are the violation of a plan’s temporal constraints. Air Traffic Control is an example of an area in which violations of the plan’s temporal constraints is rather a rule than an exception. In such domains there is a need for identifying the underlying causes of the constraint violations in order to improve plan repairs and to anticipate future constraint vi...

A perpetrator’s mental state – whether she had mens rea or a “guilty mind” – typically plays an important role in evaluating wrongness and assigning punishment. In two experiments, we find that this role for mental states is weaker in evaluating conventional violations relative to moral violations. We also find that this diminished role for mental states may be associated with the fact that con...

Repairing violations of integrity constraints in databases can be seen as an interleaving diagnostic/repair process. In this paper we introduce a new approach on repairing constraint violations by adopting existing techniques from model–based diagnosis. Violations of integrity constraints observed in an inconsistent database state are diagnosed and repair actions are deduced from diagnoses. By ...

Abstract Multiuser Privacy (MP) concerns the protection of personal information in situations where such is co-owned by multiple users. MP particularly problematic collaborative platforms as online social networks (OSN). In fact, too often OSN users experience privacy violations due to conflicts generated other sharing content that involves them without their permission. Previous studies show m...

The addition of massive numbers of new drivers with varied driving experience to roads in China suggests it is important to understand the nature of aberrant driving behaviors for this new set of drivers. A paper-based and an Internet survey were administered. Factor analysis produced a five-factor structure for each survey. The distinction between violations and errors indicated in previous st...
