Perfectionists have excessively high standards and thus are prone to experience dissatisfaction and embarrassment. But what if they achieve perfection? The present study investigated in a sample of 194 university students how self-oriented and socially prescribed perfectionism predicted emotional reactions (satisfaction, dissatisfaction, pride, embarrassment) to imagined situations in which stu...

In the target article, Alessandro Salice and Alba Montes Sánchez argue that people sometimes feel proud and ashamed of the actions of others whom they perceive to belong to the same group as themselves. The authors maintain that the social self is the target of emotion whereas the other is merely its focus—a background object that makes intelligible the target's instantiating the formal object ...

Pride groups, or “groups given by presentations in which each defining relator involves at most two types of generators”, include Coxeter groups, Artin groups, triangles of groups, and Vinberg’s groups defined by periodic paired relations. We show that every non-spherical Pride group that is not a triangle of groups satisfies the Tits alternative.

The emerging middle powers in the Global South increasingly seek to produce domestic defence technologies. Drones particular have become an important feature of power activism. existing literature heavily focuses on outcomes diffusion drone technologies for regional and global politics. Yet not much has been written impact home-grown military powers. Therefore, we ask how manufacture, export us...

We show that if agents are risk neutral, prizes outperform wages if and only if there is su¢ cient pride and envy relative to the noisiness of performance. If agents are risk averse, prizes are a necessary supplement to wages (as bonuses). Keywords: Envy, Pride, Wages, Prizes, Bonus JEL Classi…cation: C72, D01, D23, L14.

We give short new geometric proofs of theorems of Bogley and Pride and of Serre. Both follow quickly from a global fixed point theorem. The Bogley–Pride theorem concerns aspherical relative group presentations and was applied in [5] to the multivariable adjunction problem. Serre’s theorem is a basic result concerning group cohomology and finite subgroups.
