Political campaigns routinely appeal to citizens’ emotions, and there is evidence that such appeals influence political behaviour. Social media, an important arena through which actors communicate with voters, provide a rich source of data for investigating not only communication strategies they use but also these engage followers. Building on psychology literature, the present study investigat...

Recently, the call to combine land change science (LCS) and political ecology (PE) in the study of human-environment interactions has been widely discussed by scientists from both subfields of geography. In this paper, we use a hybrid ecology framework to examine the effects of conservation policies on the environment and the livelihood of the people of the Korup National Park (KNP). Using tech...

in this study, postharvest characteristics of eight cut rose cultivars (valentine, king pride, prima donna, black baccara, victory, papagayo, royal baccara and yellow island) were investigated in a growth room with temperature of 20 ºc, relative humidity of 50% and light intensity of 10 µmol m-2 s-1 in autumn 2008. among cultivars significant differences were found for all of the attributes eva...

Despite widespread assumptions that psychopathy is associated with serious and repeated law-breaking, individuals with psychopathic personality traits do not invariably become chronic criminal offenders. As a partial explanation for this finding, Lykken (1995) ventured that a fearless temperament underlies both psychopathic traits and heroic behavior, and that heroic individuals' early exposure...

The authors examined age differences in shame, guilt, and 2 forms of pride (authentic and hubristic) from age 13 years to age 89 years, using cross-sectional data from 2,611 individuals. Shame decreased from adolescence into middle adulthood, reaching a nadir around age 50 years, and then increased in old age. Guilt increased from adolescence into old age, reaching a plateau at about age 70 yea...

Self-conscious emotions such as shame and pride are emotions that typically focus on the self of the person who feels them. In other words, the intentional object of these emotions is assumed to be the subject that experiences them. Many reasons speak in its favor and yet this account seems to leave a question open: how to cash out those cases in which one genuinely feels ashamed or proud of wh...

We aimed to investigate the neural correlates associated with judgments of a positive self-conscious emotion, pride, and elucidate the difference between pride and a basic positive emotion, joy, at the neural basis level using functional magnetic resonance imaging. Study of the neural basis associated with pride might contribute to a better understanding of the pride-related behaviors observed ...

UNLABELLED PRIDE-NMR is a fast novel method to relate known protein folds to NMR distance restraints. It can be used to obtain a first guess about a structure being determined, as well as to estimate the completeness or verify the correctness of NOE data.
