Affective Modulation of Working Memory Maintenance: The Role of Positive and Negative Emotions
(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 ...
Correlated conformational dynamics of the human GluN1-GluN2A type N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor
(SPRINGER, 2021)
N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are glutamate-gated ion channels found in the nerve cell membranes. As a result of overexcitation of NMDARs, neuronal death occurs and may lead to diseases such as epilepsy, stroke, ...
Religion, parochialism and intuitive cooperation
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2021-01)
Religions promote cooperation, but they can also be divisive. Is religious cooperation intuitively parochial against atheists? Evidence supporting the social heuristics hypothesis (SHH) suggests that cooperation is intuitive, ...
Metastable Potts droplets
(AMER PHYSICAL SOC, 2021-03)
The existence and limits of metastable droplets have been calculated using finite-system renormalization-group theory, for q-state Potts models in spatial dimension d = 3. The dependence of the droplet critical sizes on ...
VCC-BPS: Vertical Collaborative Clustering using Bit Plane Slicing
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2021-01)
The vertical collaborative clustering aims to unravel the hidden structure of data (similarity) among different sites, which will help data owners to make a smart decision without sharing actual data. For example, various ...
Direct Bullying and Cyberbullying: Experimental Study of Bystanders' Motivation to Defend Victims and the Role of Anxiety and Identification With the Bully
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-01)
School bullying among young adolescents is a globally pervasive problem, but is less common when bystanders are motivated to defend victims. Thus, the focus of this experimental study is on motivation to defend victims of ...
Evaluation of the selection of proper metro and tram vehicle for urban transportation by using a novel integrated MCDM approach
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 1 OLIVERS YARD, 55 CITY ROAD, LONDON EC1Y 1SP, ENGLAND, 2021-01)
This paper presents a novel integrated multi-criteria decision-making model consists of the CRITIC (CRiteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation) technique and the EDAS (The Evaluation based on Distance from Average ...
Cultural differences in performance on Eriksen's flanker task
(Springer, 2020)
Eriksen's zoom model of attention implies a trade-off between the breadth and resolution of representations of information. Following this perspective, we used Eriksen's flanker task to investigate culture's influence on ...
Frustrated Potts model: Multiplicity eliminates chaos via reentrance
(Amer Physical Soc, 2020)
The frustrated q-state Potts model is solved exactly on a hierarchical lattice, yielding chaos under rescaling, namely, the signature of a spin-glass phase, as previously seen for the Ising (q = 2) model. However, the ...
Evaluation of the COVID-19 Pandemic Intervention Strategies with Hesitant F-AHP
(Hindawi, 2020)
In this study, a hesitant fuzzy AHP method is presented to help decision makers (DMs), especially policymakers, governors, and physicians, evaluate the importance of intervention strategy alternatives applied by various ...
