At first glance, this does not look like the kind of book which would help cognitive science researchers, as Ralph Ellis is Professor of Philosophy at Clark Atlanta University and has written mainly on consciousness, affect, motivation and thinking. But Ellis’ long-term interest in the philosophy of mind makes his observations refreshingly different. He emphasises a viewpoint and approach that ...

This paper extends Ellis and Stimson’s (Ideology in America. New York: Cambridge UniversityPress, 2012) study of the operational-symbolic paradox using issue-level measures of ideological incongruence based on respondent positions and symbolic labels for these positions across 14 issues. Like Ellis and Stimson, we find that substantial numbers—over 30 %—of Americans experience conflicted conser...

rational emotive behavior therapy (rebt) is based on the concept that emotions and behaviors are results of cognitive processes. there is a possibility for the human being to gain better ways for feeling and behavior in case of amending many processes. rebt is one of cognitive-behavioral therapies which is very much like cognitive therapy developed by aaron t. beck in 1960 although it’s separat...

We have investigated the gravitational lensing by two wormholes, viz., Janis Newman-Winnicour (JNW) wormhole and Ellis wormhole. The deflection angle in the strong field limit is calculated and various lens parameters of two wormholes are compared. It is shown that the JNW wormhole exhibits the relativistic images, while the Ellis wormhole does not have any relativistic images due to the absenc...

In this paper, we show that it is possible to extend the Ellis theorem, establishing the relations between axioms of a topological group on a new class N of spaces containing all countably compact spaces in the case of Abelian group structure. We extend statements of the Ellis theorem concerning separate and joint continuity of group inverse on the class of spaces N that gives some new examples...
