Academic, legal and practitioner responses to cyber threats have been predominantly reactive, punitive, deterrence-based, with limited attention given the motives underlying computer criminals' behaviors. This paper reasons that new better theoretical perspectives are needed explain motives. Following a review of crime behavioral literature, summary core philosophies theories used generalized c...

Computational models of motivation are tools that artificial agents can use to identify, prioritize, select and adapt the goals they will pursue autonomously. Previous research has focused on developing computational models of motivation that permit artificial agents to exhibit characteristics such as adaptive exploration, problem-finding behavior, competence-seeking behavior and creativity. Th...

Scrutiny of the numerous physiology and imaging studies of visual attention reveal that integration of results from neuroscience with the classic theories of visual attention based on behavioral work is not simple. The different subfields have pursued different questions, used distinct experimental paradigms and developed diverse models. The purpose of this review is to use statistical decision...

Possible pathophysiologic alterations which might lead to the clinical behaviors and way of life which are termed schizophrenic have been postulated by some investigators for many years and have most recently been championed as causative agents by such investigators as Heath, Osmond, Hoffer, Callbeck, Kahan and Pauling. In the early decades of this century, specific neuropathologic lesions were...

Choice inconsistency has long been studied in behavioral economics. In this article we critically review theories of media choice, showing that they have not explicitly dealt with phenomenon. Although digitalization recently made it more salient, the communication literature on inconsistent choice still remains highly fragmented. We draw economics to address blind spots our theorization selecti...

The need to test a growing number of theories in cognitive science has led to increased interest in inferential methods that integrate multiple data modalities. In this manuscript, we show how a method for integrating three data modalities within a single framework provides (1) more detailed descriptions of cognitive processes and (2) more accurate predictions of unobserved data than less integ...

The study of culture in international relations theories takes a wide range of complex issues, which without enough perception about these issues, certainly our understanding about the role of culture in international relations theories will be incomplete. Since in real world the study of international affairs is best understood as traditional competition between traditional mainstream theories...
