Please cite this article in press as: Templer, D. I. (2012), http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2012.04 J. Philippe Rushton has been described as one of the greatest theorists in the field of personality and individual differences and social psychology. His life history theory (Differential K Theory) was said to bring unification to the scientific study of racial differences as Einstein’s theory ...

It was almost exactly 25 years ago as a graduate student in Electrical Engineering that my own intellectual curosity about mechanisms of visual adaptation was kindled. Adaptation is one of the most profound and pervasive sensory phenomena. After steady exposure to a sensory stimulus,, sensitivity is almost always decreased. Odors become less noticeable, lights appear dimmer, tastes become less ...

In this work, guidelines for reliable 3D-PTV measurements of fluid flows in stirred vessels at the lab-scale have been developed. The flow water Re=12,000 a flat bottom cylindrical tank (T=180mm) with 6 blades Rushton turbine (c=D=T/3) has measured different camera frame rates (125 – 3600 fps) and tracer concentrations (0.001 0.010 px?2). best compromise between number data, tracking efficiency...

Though most personality researchers now recognize that ratings of the Big Five are not orthogonal, the field has been divided about whether these trait intercorrelations are substantive (i.e., driven by higher order factors) or artifactual (i.e., driven by correlated measurement error). We used a meta-analytic multitrait-multirater study to estimate trait correlations after common method varian...

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a powerful numerical tool that is becoming widely used to simulate many processes in the industry. In this work study of the stirred tank with 7 types of concave blade with CFD was presented. In the modeling of the impeller rotation, sliding mesh (SM) technique was used and RNG-k-ε model was selected for turbulence. Power consumption in various speeds in th...
