In a now-classic study by Srull and Wyer (1979), people who were exposed to phrases with hostile content subsequently judged man as being more hostile. And this “hostile priming effect” has had significant influence on the field of social cognition over subsequent decades. However, recent multi-lab collaborative (McCarthy et al., 2018) that closely followed methods described (1979) found effect...

A distinguished algebraic variety in $\mathbb{C}^2$ has been the focus of much research recent years because good reasons. This note gives a different perspective. (1) We find new characterization an $\mathcal W$ which is with respect to bidisc. It terms joint spectrum pair commuting linear matrix pencils. (2) There known $\mathbb{D}^2\cap\mathcal{W}$ due seminal work Agler and McCarthy. show t...

of “Static Analyses of Cryptographic Protocols” by Jay McCarthy, Ph.D., Brown University, May 2009 Most protocol analyses only address security properties. However, other properties are important and can increase our understanding of protocols, as well as aid in the deployment and compilation of implementations. We investigate such analyses. Unfortunately, existing high-level protocol implement...
