This paper aims to inform design strategies for regulating privacy in coworking spaces. Coworking spaces are growing at a high rate, yet studies related to the social, psychological, behavioral and physical needs associated with these environments are limited. The growth of coworking spaces is in greater part facilitated by a drive towards greater interaction and collaboration among the workfor...

In a study of 102 bronchograms for purposes of comparing the contrast medium Visciodol(R) (a mixture of iodized peanut oil and powdered sulfanilamide) with Iodochlorol(R) (an iodized poppyseed oil), it was observed that Visciodol is more readily administered, produces better bronchograms with less alveolar filling and clears from the lungs far more rapidly and completely than does Iodochlorol. ...

The authors indexed the subjective experience of hypnosis through the use of a continuous behavioral measure of the strength of the participant's experience at the time of the suggestion. Specifically, subjects turned a dial to indicate changes in their experience of the suggested effect during that experience. Thirty-three high, 47 medium, and 28 low hypnotizable subjects were asked to use the...

The Bruggeman formalism provides an estimate of the effective permittivity of a particulate composite medium comprising two component mediums. The Bruggeman estimate is required to lie within the Wiener bounds and the Hashin–Shtrikman bounds. Considering the homogenization of weakly dissipative component mediums characterized by relative permittivities with real parts of opposite signs, we show...

Given the factors that influence language on Twitter – size limitation as well as communication and content-sharing mechanisms – there is a continuing debate about the position of Twitter’s language in the spectrum of language on various established mediums. These include SMS and chat on the one hand (size limitatio...

How hypnotizability relates to personality traits other than absorption has received scant attention even though hypnotizability exhibits clear and stable individual differences. Two personality constructs particularly germane to hypnotizability are mental boundaries and self-transcendence, since they seem to index the propensity to experience alterations in consciousness. We conducted two stud...
