It is often assumed that if time is continuous, then the sharpens the differences between these two accounts standard mathematical account of the continuum and offers a unified account which retains some the real line is the appropriate model of the local advantages of both, at the cost of making the structure of the timeline. However, another popular continuum a slightly more complicated struc...

This study examined the effectiveness of a logbook and paperclip technique on awareness of the use and content of negative self-talk as well as the motivation to change negative self-talk. Participants (n = 73) completed a questionnaire measuring these variables, and were assigned to either a control, paperclip or logbook group. Participants performed three typical training sessions over a thre...

It is beyond controversy that in bimanual coordination tasks, parameter planning related to the movements of one hand influences the planning and execution of movements simultaneously performed with the other hand. A well-researched example of such bimanual interference is the finding that reaction times tend to be longer when preparing bimanual pointing movements with different amplitudes than...

Using a spontaneous parametric down-conversion process to create entangled spatial states, we compare the information capacity associated with measurements in the Hermite-Gaussian and Laguerre-Gaussian modal basis in an optical system of finite aperture. We show that the cross-talk imposed by the aperture restriction degrades the information capacity. However, the Laguerre-Gaussian mode measure...

Thermoelectrics (TE) is a green renewable energy technology which plays an import role in power generation due to its potential in generating electricity out of waste heat. The challenge for the development of thermoelectric is its low conversion efficiency. The efficiency of thermoelectric materials is related to the figure of merit, which is expressed as ZT = S2σT/, where S is the Seebeck coe...
