Various books and popular media outlets claim that mindless smartphone use can impair creativity, yet few studies have tested this idea. We conducted a survey three correlational focused on divergent thinking, the mindful ability to generate creative responses open-ended problems. Most of 48,000 participants surveyed thought reduced creativity. This view was consistent with negative correlation...

This study examined stress management strategies and employee performance in manufacturing firms Edo State. Four research questions four hypotheses guided this research. employed the correlational design covered all State but five of them were randomly picked for their employees totaled into 1,663, which served as study’s population, out 301 sampled using Taro Yamane’s formula. The instrument d...

Multifarious psychological constructs are indexed by the mean latency difference (MLD), the within-subject difference between mean response latency on two tasks. Two associations consistently emerge in mean latency data. Firstly, across subjects, mean latencies on distinct tasks are positively correlated. This correlation arises from individual differences in general rates of information proces...

BACKGROUND Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are sequence variations found in individuals at some specific points in the genomic sequence. As SNPs are highly conserved throughout evolution and within a population, the map of SNPs serves as an excellent genotypic marker. Conventional SNPs analysis mechanisms suffer from large run times, inefficient memory usage, and frequent overestimation....

We propose FCLT – a fully-correlational long-term tracker. The two main components of FCLT are a shortterm tracker which localizes the target in each frame and a detector which re-detects the target when it is lost. Both the short-term tracker and the detector are based on correlation filters. The detector exploits properties of the recent constrained filter learning and is able to re-detect th...

Racial bias in the decision to shoot can be minimized if individuals have ample cognitive resources to regulate automatic reactions. However, when individuals are fatigued, cognitive control may be compromised, which can lead to greater racial bias in shoot/ don’t-shoot decisions. The current studies provide evidence for this hypothesis experimentally using undergraduate participants (Study 1) ...
