This paper examines a newly created approach to exploring travel motivations, the Travel Career Patterns (TCP) model. Through an analysis of the TCP model, the authors advance travel motivation theory by making three contributions: a refinement of the definition of travel experience; the use and evaluation of essays as a qualitative tool for interpreting travel motives; and an extension of the ...

Misattributions people make about their own affective reactions can be used to measure attitudes implicitly. Combining the logic of projective tests with advances in priming research, the affect misattribution procedure (AMP) was sensitive to normatively favorable and unfavorable evaluations (Experiments 1-4), and the misattribution effect was strong at both fast and slow presentation rates (Ex...

Logically, though not historically, projective techniques must be regarded as a part of the general field of psychological measurement. Projective testing and research may therefore legitimately be studied within the theoretical and methodologicall framework of psychological measurement, always keeping in mind, of course, the problems that are peculiar to projective techniques. Largely as a.. r...

The main result of the present article is a (practically optimal) criterium for the pseudoeffectivity of the twisted relative canonical bundles of surjective projective maps. Our theorem has several applications in algebraic geometry; to start with, we obtain the natural analytic generalization of some semipositivity results due to E. Viehweg and F. Campana. As a byproduct, we give a simple and...

Pectins are major components of the primary plant cell wall. They can be both methylesterified and acetylesterified and de-esterification occurs by specific esterases. Proteins extracted by NaCl treatment from root cell walls of two chicory varieties (Cichorium intybus L. cv. Nausica and Arancha) sampled in an experimental field every 2 weeks between July 2002 and January 2003 were analysed by ...

Abstract Let $f\,:\,C\,\longrightarrow \,D$ be a nonconstant separable morphism between irreducible smooth projective curves defined over an algebraically closed field. We say that $f$ is genuinely ramified if ${\mathcal O}_D$ the maximal semistable subbundle of $f_*{\mathcal O}_C$ (equivalently, induced homomorphism $f_*\,:\, \pi _1^{\textrm{et}}(C)\,\longrightarrow \, _1^{\textrm{et}}(D)$ éta...

Abstract Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $P(H)$ the projective of all quantum pure states. Wigner’s theorem states that every bijection $\phi \colon P(H)\to P(H)$ preserves angle between is automatically induced by either unitary or an antiunitary operator $U\colon H\to H$. Uhlhorn’s generalizes this result for bijective maps $ are only assumed to preserve $\frac{\pi }{2}$ (orthogonality) in bot...

In [ 1 ] it was shown that there is no projective plane of order 12 which possesses a collineation group of order 12 consisting of elations with a fixed point as a center and a fixed line as its axis. We prove THEOREM A. There is no projective plane of order 12 which possesses a collineation group of order 4 consisting of elations with a fixed point as a center and a fixed line as its axis. Pro...

For maximal variational smooth families of projective manifolds whose general fibers have semi-ample canonical bundle, the Viehweg hyperbolicity conjecture states that base spaces such are log-general type. This deep was recently proved by Campana– Păun and later generalized Popa–Schnell. In this paper we prove those pseudo Kobayashi hyperbolic, as predicted Lang conjecture: any complex quasi-p...

Abstract. The notion of o-polynomial comes from finite projective geometry. In 2011 and later, it has been shown that those objects play an important role in symmetric cryptography and coding theory to design bent Boolean functions, bent vectorial Boolean functions, semi-bent functions and to construct good linear codes. In this note, we characterize o-polynomials by the Walsh transform of the ...
