Restructuring of the US electric power system that began in the late 1990’s appears to have run aground over the question of the assurance of both regulatory resource adequacy and generator long-term revenue sufficiency. The energy and capacity markets that have been designed for a number of the centralized markets in the US and elsewhere have not functioned as designed. Energy only markets suc...

Ð An explanatory mechanism is discussed that leads to a so-called sufficiency theory of certain psychological phenomena, such as standard recognition as opposed to deÂjaÁ vu, imagined novel experience, jamais vu, disturbed recognition, incorrect recognition, and hallucinationÐexperiences that have not been explained before in a satisfactory scientific manner. Sufficiency theory, in general, mea...

Political debate over medical malpractice reform seldom takes meaningful account of its policy context, including the emerging science of patient safety. Instead, stakeholders on both sides use the rhetoric of patient safety to support entrenched positions on hardened proposals such as capping damages and limiting access to information about errors. Despite its déjà vu quality, the current malp...

OBJECTIVE The present study examined the relation between déjà vu experiences and paranormal beliefs in schizophrenic patients. METHODS A total of 522 participants (54.5% female; mean age=33.3, SD=16.02) were recruited, including 422 healthy adults (60.9% female; mean age=29.48, SD=15.07) and 100 medicated adult schizophrenic patients (27.3% female; mean age=48.98, SD=8.57). The Chinese versi...

We review the concept of VU-decomposition of nonsmooth convex functions, which is closely related to the notion of partly smooth functions. As VU-decomposition depends on the subdifferential at the given point, the associated objects lack suitable continuity properties (because the subdifferential lacks them), which poses an additional challenge to the already difficult task of constructing sup...

We investigated the effects of very brief pictorial information on transfer between the cerebral hemispheres through recordings of skin conductance responses. The pictorial stimuli had been judged previously as "neutral", "positive", or "negative" by an independent group of subjects. The verbally-available stimuli (VA) were neutral whereas the very brief, verbally-unavailable stimuli (VU) were ...
