Angle-resolved photoemission was used to study the surface electronic band structure of high quality single crystals of ferromagnetic CoS(2) (below 120 K). Strongly dispersing Co t(2g) bands are identified along the ⟨100⟩ [Formula: see text] direction, the [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text] line of the surface Brillouin zone, in agreement with model calculations. The calculated surface ban...

Shame and honor are mechanisms that expose behavior that falls outside the social norm. With recent six-player public goods experiments, we demonstrated that the threat of shame or the promise of honor led to increased cooperation. Participants were told in advance that after ten rounds two participants would be asked to come forward and write their names on the board in front of the fellow gro...

Your brain is never at rest. Shifting patterns of activity course through your brain at night as you review the events of the day and plan the next day before falling asleep. Rumination is a reflection of the Self that is not directly driven by sensory stimuli. When we record from single neurons in the brain, we discover that even in the absence of sensory stimulation, neurons are continuously ...

BACKGROUND The leprosy transmission chain is very complex and, in order to intervene in this transmission, more must be known about the factors linked to falling ill. There are doubts as to the influence of population size, population density and the disease's magnitude in detection rate trends. This paper aimed to identify factors associated with detection of leprosy in an endemic municipality...

Three experiments tested a motivated information processing account of the interpersonal effects of anger and happiness in negotiations. In Experiment 1, participants received information about the opponent's emotion (anger, happiness, or none) in a computer-mediated negotiation. As predicted, they conceded more to an angry opponent than to a happy one (controls falling in between), but only wh...

The visual system is tasked with extracting stimulus content (e.g. the identity of an object) from the spatiotemporal light pattern falling on the retina. However, visual information can be ambiguous with regard to content (e.g. an object when viewed from far away), requiring the system to also consider contextual information. Additionally, visual information originating from the same content c...

Several studies have recently provided empirical data supporting the view that gravity has been embodied in a quantitative internal model of gravity thereby permitting access to exact time-to-contact (TTC) when intercepting a free falling object. In this review, we discuss theoretical and methodological concerns with the experiments that supposedly support the assumption of a predictive and acc...

The authors examined whether variations in day-to-day estimates of personality characteristics, which are often treated as error, are instead predictable and meaningful. Using event-sampling and spectral analysis, they found that variations in interpersonal behavior over weekly periods were cyclic and normative. Dominant, submissive, agreeable, and quarrelsome behaviors rose during the week and...

We assume that the reader is familiar with the most basic of facts concerning continuous random variables or is willing to settle for the following sketchy description. Samples from a (univariate or multivariate) experiment can be histogrammed either in practice or as a thought experiment. Histogramming counts how many samples fall in a certain interval. Underlying is the notion that there is a...
