Affective Modulation of Working Memory Maintenance: The Role of Positive and Negative Emotions
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(UNIV ECONOMICS, 2021-05)The present study investigated the impact of task-irrelevant emotional images on the retention of information in spatial working memory (WM). Two experiments employed a delayed matching-to-sample task where participants had to maintain the locations of four briefly presented squares. After a short retention interval, a probe item appeared and participants were required to indicate whether the probe position matched one of the previously occupied square positions. During the retention interval, ...

Cinema Has Split the Girl's Soul Into Pieces: Scrutinizing Representations of Women in Films From Turkey
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(University of Southern California, 2020)The 1980s in Turkey were marked by the emergence of new cinematic forms, including films dealing with issues regarding female subjectivity. This article argues that within the scope of an extensive body of films produced about women in the 1980s, Her Name Is Vasfiye, Aaahh Belinda!, How to Save Asiye, Ten Women, and My Dreams, My Love and You opened up a significant space for discussions about ideological constructions concerning images of women in cinema. By deploying reflexive and fragmented ...

Joint Pricing and Ordering Problem with Charitable Donations
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Mdpi, 2020)Finding the correct pricing strategy for a product with multiple versions is an issue for retailers from various industries. In this paper, joint pricing and ordering problem is considered for a product that has two versions at each selling period. Two models, namely with or without the donation option, are analyzed and optimality conditions and monotonicity properties of the decision variables are characterized. When demands of products depend on prices of both versions, donating part of old ...

Large Eddy Simulation of Wind Flow over A Realistic Urban Area
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(MDPI, 2020)A high-resolution large eddy simulation (LES) of wind flow over the Oklahoma City downtown area was performed to explain the effect of the building height on wind flow over the city. Wind flow over cities is vital for pedestrian and traffic comfort as well as urban heat effects. The average southerly wind speed of eight meters per second was used in the inflow section. It was found that heights and distribution of the buildings have the greatest impact on the wind flow patterns. The complexity of ...

Nodal Sensitivity-Based Smart Inverter Control for Voltage Regulation in Distribution Feeder
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IEEE Electron Devices Society, 2021)Overvoltage is one of the issues in distribution grids with high penetration of photovoltaics (PVs). Centralized or droop-based methods of active power curtailment (APC) and/or reactive power control of PVs are viable solutions to prevent overvoltage. This article proposes two distributed methods to control PV inverters, which are based on nodal sensitivities. Then, the performance of the proposed methods is compared with two commonly used control methods, i.e., a distributed method that follows ...

Number and type of toys affect joint attention of mothers and infants
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)Establishing joint attention with a caregiver on a physical object provides an optimal environment for language learning for infants. In the present study, we investigated whether 12-month-olds and their mothers establish higher quality joint attention interactions in the presence of fewer compared to more toys. As a secondary goal, we investigated how different types of toys affect how mother-infant dyads establish joint attention. In a five-minute free play setting, mothers and infants participated ...

Optimal On-Off Transmission Schemes for Full Duplex Wireless Powered Communication Networks
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IEEE, 2020)In this paper, we consider a full duplex wireless powered communication network where multiple users with radio frequency energy harvesting capability communicate to an energy broadcasting hybrid access point. We investigate the minimum length scheduling and sum throughput maximization problems considering on-off transmission scheme in which users either transmit at a constant power or remain silent. For minimum length scheduling problem, we propose a polynomial-time optimal scheduling algorithm. ...

The ULX source X-3 in NGC 4258: a search for its X-ray and optical properties
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Oxford Univ Press, 2020)We present the results of a search for the nature of ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) X-3 in the nearby galaxy NGC 4258. We use archival data from XMM-Newton, Chandra, NuSTAR, and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations. Total X-ray data were analysed to find that the model parameters of the system are indicative of a stellar-mass black hole, similar to 10 M-circle dot, as the central compact object. Furthermore, analyses of the optical data from HST reveal two optical candidates at 90 per cent ...
