Article history: Received 30 December 2015 Received in revised form 20 February 2016 Accepted 20 February 2016 Available online 23 February 2016 Drawing from the work–home resources model, we examined the relations of family incivility, counterproductive work behaviors (CWB), state self-esteem, and emotional regulation. Results from three-wave lagged data (N = 284) indicated that family incivil...

The recently introduced deflected mirage mediation (DMM) model is a string-motivated paradigm in which all three of the major supersymmetry-breaking transmission mechanisms are operative. We begin a systematic exploration of the parameter space of this rich model context, paying special attention to the pattern of gaugino masses which arise. In this work we focus on the dark matter phenomenolog...

Social class is a robust predictor of health, with risk for disease and mortality increasing towards the lower end of the socioeconomic (SES) spectrum. While certain psychological characteristics, such as high sense of control, can protect low-SES individuals from adverse health outcomes, very few studies have investigated the biological mechanisms underlying these relationships. In this study,...

Over five experiments we test the fictive pass asymmetry hypothesis. Following observations of ethics and public reactions to media, we propose that fictional contexts, such as reality, imagination, and virtual environments, will mitigate people’s moral condemnation of harm violations, more so than purity violations. That is, imagining a purely harmful act is given a “fictive pass,” in moral ju...

Flux compactifications of string theory seem to require the presence of a fine-tuned constant in the superpotential. We discuss a scheme where this constant is replaced by a dynamical quantity which we argue to be a ‘continuous Chern– Simons term’. In such a scheme, the gaugino condensate generates the hierarchically small scale of supersymmetry breakdown rather than adjusting its size to a con...

The present empirical study explores the effects of gender role and cultural identity (masculinity and femininity) in mens’ and womens’ business growth intentions in established firms. A questionnaire survey was completed by 572 business owners (286 females). Results from moderated mediation regression analyses found that masculinity and femininity fully mediated the effects of entrepreneurs’ s...

Abstract To provide a reliable and comprehensive data reference for core geometry design of graphite-moderated low-enriched uranium fueled molten salt reactors, the influences geometric parameters on temperature coefficient reactivity (TCR) at an assembly level were characterized. A four-factor formula was introduced to explain how different coefficients behave in terms fuel volume fraction siz...

I n May and June 1986, Programming Pearls took up literate programming, an approach to programming espoused by Donald Knuth. Knuth’s premise is that the best programs are meant for people as well as machines; they are meant to be read as well as run. He built a system, WEB, that scans specially structured technical reports to extract Pascal statements interwoven with the text, forming from them...

The modelling with the Geant4 toolkit of moderated 3He-filled proportional neutron counters is studied. The energy deposition spectra by the neutron capture products in the gas counter is compared with experimental results. On the other hand, efficiency calculation for polyethylene moderated proportional counters are compared with experimental and MCNPX results.Finally, the application of the G...
