Descartes proposed that all observable human behavior could be divided into 2 categories, the simple and the complex. Simple behaviors were those in which a given sensation always, deterministically, produced the same behavioral response. . .. Complex behaviors, in contrast were those in which the linkage between sensation and action was unpredictable and subject to the vagaries of volition. . ...

We report our progress on the data analysis of ππ scattering data in terms of Forward Dispersion Relations (FDR), as well as Roy equations (RE) and their once-subtracted counterpart, GKPY equations. The first part of the analysis consists of independent fits to the different ππ channels. The GKPY equations provide a more stringent consistency check for the parametrizations of the S0-wave data i...

Charles Inglis McLaren (1882–1957) was a psychiatrist and missionary from the Presbyterian Church of Australia, and helped to introduce psychiatry to Korea. McLaren’s contributions to Korea extended beyond the mere introduction of a discipline, and were largely due to his uniqueness. McLaren was not only a psychiatrist, but also a thinker who thought deeply about Christianity, psychiatry, and t...

Adaptation in a fluctuating environment is a process of fueling environmental information to gain fitness. Living systems have gradually developed strategies for adaptation from random and passive diversification of the phenotype to more proactive decision making, in which environmental information is sensed and exploited more actively and effectively. Understanding the fundamental relation bet...

In a nonequilibrium system, a constant flux relation (CFR) expresses the fact that a constant flux of a conserved quantity exactly determines the scaling of the particular correlation function linked to the flux of that conserved quantity. This is true regardless of whether mean-field theory is applicable or not. We focus on cluster-cluster aggregation and discuss the consequences of mass conse...

Abstract: Research on multiracial categorization has focused on majority group social perceivers (i.e., White Americans), demonstrating that they (a) typically categorize Black-White multiracials according to a rule of hypodescent, associating them more with their lower status parent group than their higher status parent group, and (b) do so at least in part to preserve the hierarchical status ...

We give a new characterization of lambda deenability in Henkin models using logical relations deened over ordered sets with varying arity. The advantage of this over earlier approaches by Plotkin and Statman is its simplicity and universality. Yet, decidability of lambda deenability for hereditarily nite Henkin models remains an open problem. But if the variable set allowed in terms is also res...

OBJECTIVES Assess unforeseen consequences of Telehealth and suggest solutions Methods: An outline was created collecting all possible ill effects classified into Clinical considerations, Administrative concerns including interpersonal relations, Technical issues, Legal / Ethical concerns and Miscellaneous. Each topic was assigned to a particular WG member to lead, gather opinion and review exis...

Consciousness alterations can be experienced during unstructured, monotonous stimuli. These effects have not been linked to particular cognitive operations; individual differences in response to such stimulation remain poorly understood. We examined the role of hypnotizability and dissociative tendencies in mind-wandering (MW) during a sensory homogenization procedure (ganzfeld). We expected th...

Sieber has described a model of PCF consisting of continuous functions that are invariant under certain ((nitary) logical relations, and shown that it is fully abstract for closed terms of up to third-order types. We show that one may achieve full abstraction at all types using a form of \Kripke logical relations" introduced by Jung and Tiuryn to characterize-deenability.
