VOYEURISM AND EXHIBITIONISM AS GRATIFICATIONS FROM PROSUMING FACEBOOK

In social networking sites (SNSs), the user has a dual role as one produces content for both oneself and for the other users, and consumes the content produced by other users. Thus, we argue the SNS users can be characterized as prosumers. Drawing on the Uses & Gratifications approach, we further argue that voyeurism and exhibitionism are important gratifications from prosuming SNSs. We thus examine voyeurism as an outcome of content consumption and exhibitionism as an outcome of content production in SNS setting. To this end, we use Partial Least Squares (PLS) to analyse a sample of 289 Facebook users. The results show that content consumption significantly predicts voyeurism and content production exhibitionism. The study contributes to the literature on SNS use by disaggregating SNS use into content consumption and content production, and placing voyeurism and exhibitionism as the outcomes of the two. As its second main contribution, the study applies and further develops the concept of prosumption towards SNS use.
Neural Correlates of Auditory Streaming of Harmonic Complex Sounds with 2

197 words) 27 It has been suggested that successively presented sounds that are perceived as separate 28 auditory streams are represented by separate populations of neurons. Mostly, spectral 29 separation in different peripheral filters has been identified as the cue for segregation. 30 However, stream segregation based on temporal cues is also possible without spectral 31 separation. Here we present sequences of ABAtriplet stimuli providing only temporal 32 cues to neurons in the European starling auditory forebrain. A and B sounds (125ms 33 duration) were harmonic complexes (fundamentals 100, 200 or 400 Hz; center 34 frequency and bandwidth chosen to fit the neurons' tuning characteristic) with identical 35 amplitude spectra but different phase relations between components (cosine, alternating 36 or random phase) and presented at different rates. 37 Differences in both rate responses and temporal response patterns of the neurons when 38 stimulated with harmonic complexes with different phase relations provide first 39 evidence for a mechanism allowing a separate neural representation of such stimuli. 40 Recording sites responding above 1 kHz showed enhanced rate and temporal 41 differences compared to those responding at lower frequencies. These results 42 demonstrate a neural correlate of streaming by temporal cues due to the variation of 43 phase that shows striking parallels to observations in previous psychophysical studies. 44 45
Perceiving concealment in relationships between parents and adolescents: Links with parental behavior

Although concealment in relationships is commonplace, little is known about its implications for the target of concealment. Two large-scale studies among adolescents and their parents tested the central hypothesis that parents’ perception of child concealment predicts poorer parenting behaviors toward their child. Further, we investigated whether actual child concealment adds to the prediction of parenting behaviors through an interaction with parental perception of concealment. Study 1 yielded evidence for the hypothesized link, which was independent of actual concealment. Study 2 largely replicated these results for perceptions of both concealment and lying while controlling for perceptions of disclosure. Overall, these results suggest that parents’ perception of child concealment coincides with poorer parenting behaviors, regardless of actual child concealment.
Conceptions Of The Nature Of Science Held By Undergraduate Pre-Service Biology Teachers In South-West Nigeria

This study investigated the conceptions of the nature of science held by pre-service undergraduate biology teachers in South-West, Nigeria. Specifically, the study examined the influence of their gender on their conceptions of the nature of science. The study was a descriptive research of the survey method. The population for the study comprised all undergraduate pre-service biology teachers in Nigerian universities. Stratified random sampling technique was used to select ninety nine (99) undergraduate pre-service biology teachers from three universities in South–West, Nigeria. The nature of science questionnaire (NoSQ) was used to collect data. Results revealed that pre-service undergraduate teachers’ gender did not influence their conceptions. It was recommended that biology teacher educators should equip the pre-service undergraduate biology teachers with meta-cognitive tools such as Study Technology to enable them to learn for meaningful understanding.
On the Teachability of Communication Strategies

Because a significant proportion of real-life L2 communication is problematic, L2 learners might benefit from instruction on how to cope with performance problems. Such instruction could include the specific teaching of' communication strategies, which involve various verbal and nonverbal means of dealing with difficulties and breakdowns that occur in everyday communication. Opinions on the teachability of such strategies, however, vary widely, and several researchers have questioned the validity of strategy training. This article first describes what communication strategies are and provides an overview of the teachability issue, discussing the arguments for and against strategy instruction, and suggests three possible reasons for the existing controversy. After this the results of a study aimed at obtaining empirical data on the educational potential of strategy training are presented. The findings point to the possibility of developing the quality and quantity of learners' use of at least some communication strategies through focused instruction.
Emotional Gaming

This chapter presents an investigation of the effects of decision making personality in solving an international conflict. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is represented in a realistic and well-known videogame, PeaceMaker. Participants in a study played the game, attempting to achieve a two-state solution in the game, under the Israeli role and the Palestinian role of the game. We collected data from their game play and used a questionnaire to collect information regarding the player's personality, their religion, and other general information. Results indicate that the players' decision making personality is related to their performance in PeaceMaker. Players of thinking personality were more successful at reaching a conflict resolution in the game compared to the players with feeling personality, suggesting that those that are more assertive and impersonal, rather than affective and personal, are more successful in conflict resolution. Furthermore, this distinction is particularly important when the players' religions are those involved in the conflict.
Genetic variability and character association for biometrical traits in Blackgram (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper)

In the present investigation, eleven quantitative characters were evaluated in eighty genotypes of blackgram during Rabi 2014–15 seasons to assess the genetic variability and character association. The genotypes differed significantly for all the characters studied. The highest GCV recorded for number of branches per plant, seed yield per plant, number of clusters per plant, branch length, number of pods per plant and plant height. High heritability was recorded for branch length, number of branches, plant height, clusters per plant, seed yield per plant, number of pods per plant and pod length. The highest genetic advance as percent of mean was recorded for number of branches, seed yield per plant, cluster per plant, branch length, pods per plant and plant height. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance was observed for branch length, number of branches, plant height, clusters per plant, seed yield per plant and number of pods per plant. Seed yield per plant was positively and significantly correlated with pods per plant, clusters per plant, number of seeds per pod, plant height, branch length, 100 seed weight, number of branches and pod length at both phenotypic and genotypic level. The characters pods per plant, number of seeds per pod and 100 seed weight exerted high positive direct association with seed yield. Number of pods per plant showed highly positive indirect effect on seed yield via number of clusters per plant, number of branches, plant height and branch length. Hence, selection based on number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod and hundred seed weight would result in improving the seed yield of blackgram.

Comparação entre a PSE planejada pelo treinador com a percebida por jovens atletas de atletismo

O sucesso do treinamento esportivo para jovens depende, tambem, de uma relacao otima entre a intensidade da sessao de treinamento prescrita pelo treinador e percebida pelo atleta, desta maneira, o objetivo do trabalho foi comparar a percepcao subjetiva de esforco (PSE) indicada por jovens atletas de atletismo com a planejada pelo treinador para sessao de treinamento. Participaram do estudo 28 voluntarios, de ambos os sexos, atletas de atletismo com pelo menos seis meses de treinamento, com media de idade 14,0 ± 1,32 anos, massa corporal 52,4 ± 11,5 e estatura 162,7 ± 9,3 cm, e o treinador da equipe, que tinha seis anos de experiencia. O treinador apresentou previamente a execucao do treinamento a PSE planejada para cada atleta, e a PSE dos jovens foi coletada 30 minutos apos o termino de cada sessao. A PSE planejada pelo treinador foi diferente da indicada pelo atleta (3,6 ± 1,2 e 3,1 ± 1,54, respectivamente) e tambem nas tres intensidades; leve 1,80 ± 0,41 e 2,92 ± 1,13, moderada 3,54 ± 0,72 e 4,19 ± 1,45 e forte 7,35 ± 1,33 e 4,46 ± 0,63, respectivamente. Os jovens participantes deste trabalho percebem valores distintos de PSE quando comparada com a planejada pelo treinador, sendo que, para as intensidades leve e moderada sua PSE e menor e para a intensidade pesada e maior do que a planejada. Preconiza-se que haja acompanhamento diario das intensidades percebidas pelos atletas de atletismo durante o treinamento e tambem comparacao constante com o que e planejado pelo treinador.
Understanding and Promoting Resilience in Military Families

Understanding and Promoting Resilience in Military Families Introduction This review of scientific evidence about resilience in children and families was compiled at the request of the Office of Military Community and Family Policy in the United States Department of Defense. The purpose of the review is to examine research conducted in civilian and (where available) military settings that may provide insights about individual and family resilience in the face of events that might have impacts similar to deployment. Ultimately, such insights may provide guidance regarding strategies likely to prove successful in minimizing any negative effects of deployment on military families and children.
Journal of Experimental Psychology Information Capacity of Discrete Motor Responses *

The effects of response amplitude and terminal accuracy on 2-choice reaction time (RT) and on movement time (MT) were studied. Both the required amplitude (A) of a movement, and the width (W) of the target that S was required to hit, had a large and systematic effect on MT, whereas they had a relatively small effect on RT. Denning an index of movement difficulty as ID = logi 2A/W, the correlation between ID and MT was found to be above . 99 over the ID range from 2.6 to 7.6 bits per response. Thus the times for discrete movements follow the same type of law as was found earlier to hold for serial responses. The relative independence of RT and MT is interpreted as pointing to the serial and independent nature of perceptual and motor processes.
RELIGIUSITAS DAN PERSEPSI RISIKO DALAM PENGAMBILAN KEPUTUSAN INVESTASI PADA PERSPEKTIF GENDER

Entrepreneur activities bring a great contribution to economy creativities. In this case, Indonesia has the majority of Moslem and some of them run their own business. Islam encourages entrepreneurship. This study attempts to investigate the influence of religiosity and risk perception in investment decision making on gender perspective. There are two independent variables namely religiosity and risk perception, while dependent variable is investment decision making, and gender as moderating variable. This uses questionnaires for collecting the data. With 110 Muslims entrepreneurs Sidoarjo, the collected data are analyzed by Generalized Structured Component Analysis (GeSCA) descriptively. The respondents still have not fully implemented religiosity. Respondents also tend to have high risk perception. The result showed that religiosity and risk perception have no effect on investment decision making. Also, gender did not find as a moderator. It indicates that men and women have the same perception on risk when they made investment decisions.
Differential effect of cryopreservation on natural killer cell and lymphokine‐activated killer cell activities

The use of lymphokine‐activated killer (LAK) cell therapy in delayed treatment requires the use of cryopreserved effector cells. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal cryopreservation protocol for the maintenance of cytotoxic activity in mononuclear cells (MNCs). MNCs were cryopreserved with dimethyl sulfoxide or 1,2‐propanediol before and after 3 days of culture with recombinant interleukin 2. The effects of cryopreservation on cell recovery, LAK cell and natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxic activities, and surface antigen markers were studied. Recovery of nonactivated MNCs was higher with 1,2‐propanediol than with dimethyl sulfoxide (p < 0.05). Cytotoxic activities, measured with a 51Cr release assay, significantly decreased after thawing, on both activated cells (76.3%; range, 35.8–92.2%) and fresh cells (54.6%; range, 17.5–75.4%). A 6‐day kinetic test was used to compare the cytotoxic activity of cryopreserved and fresh cells. The results showed different patterns for NK cells (cryopreserved cells had lower levels of activity than fresh cells) and LAK cells (cryopreserved cells had higher levels of activity than fresh cells). Phenotype changes of effector cells in culture, with and without cryopreservation, were monitored by flow cytometry using monoclonal antibodies. These results were compared with changes in the cytotoxicity of cells with and without cryopreservation. After thawing, there was a decrease in MNCs expressing CD14 and CD56. Recovery of the CD56 marker correlates with increased cytotoxic activity. Despite some loss of NK cell activity, it is concluded that MNCs may be successfully cryopreserved before their use in immunotherapeutic treatment.
Compton Thick AGN in the Suzaku Era

Suzaku observations of two hard X-ray (> 10 keV) selected nearby Seyfert 2 galaxies are presented. Both sources were clearly detected with the pin Hard X-ray Detector up to several tens of keV, allowing for a fairly good characterization of the broad band X-ray continuum. Both sources are heavily obscured, one of which (NGC 5728 )b eing Compton thick, while at lower energies the shape and intensity of the scattered/reflected continuum is very different. Strong iron Kα lines are detected in both sources. There are also hints for the presence of a broad relativistic iron line in NGC 4992.

Background: Clozapine is an atypical antipsychotic that differs from typical and other atypical antipsychotics as well. It differs from typical antipsychotics due to its low incidence of extrapyramidal symptoms and slight effect on dopamine sensitive prolactin. Another factor that makes it unique from most antipsychotic medications is its indication for treatment-refractory schizophrenia. This medication also has distinguishing features in its pharmacology due to its weak association with D2 receptors compared to the other atypicals. Clozapine primarily blocks D1 and D4 receptors. Furthermore, it has stronger anticholinergic properties versus other atypicals. However, despite its advantages, the use of clozapine can result in serious adverse effects such as orthostatic hypotension, sialorrhea, seizure, hepatotoxicity, and agranulocytosis. Because of the possibility of agranulocytosis, clozapine requires routine monitoring of WBC and ANC.
Media Entertainment as a Result of Recreation and Psychological Growth

Media entertainment refers to users' enjoyment of media-induced sensations. This chapter argues that users feel entertained to the extent that media sup ports their adaptive tendencies to recreate and grow psychologicallY. Within the boundaries of their physiological regulation, users are believed to engage actively in cognitive, affective, and behavioral challenges imposed by media, in order to grow psychologically. However, a lack of physiological resources may limit users' engagement in challenges and consequently strengthen their enjoy ment of more recreational and supportive media content.
COINCIDENCE POINTS AND INVARIANT APPROXIMATION RESULTS ON q-NORMED SPACES

We present coincidence points results for multivalued f- nonexpansive mappings in the setting of nonstarshaped domain of q-normed space which is not necessarily a locally convex space. As application, an invariant approximation result is also obtained. Our results improve and extend the results of Bano, Khan and Latif [1], Hussain [4], Latif and Tweddle [7], Rhoades [11], Sahab, Khan and Sessa [13], Shahzad [14] and Singh [15] in the setting of nonstarshaped domain.
Norman Do How to Win at Tic-tac-toe

Undoubtedly one of the most popular pencil and paper games in the world is tic-tac-toe, also commonly known as noughts and crosses. The game has a longstanding history in many cultures across the globe. It has been posited that it may even have been played under the name of “terni lapilli” in Ancient Rome, where examples of the tic-tac-toe grid have been found etched in stone throughout the empire. No doubt almost every reader will have played a game of tic-tac-toe, perhaps as a child subjected to a less than exhilarating class at school. And no doubt just as many will be well aware of the fact that if both players adopt their optimal strategy, then neither player can force a win.
CULTURE AND EDUCATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF AFRICA By ISAAC N MAZONDE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Today , Africa remains the world ’ s poorest continent

Today, Africa remains the world’s poorest continent. There could be several reasons for this but one of the key ones is that education has not been relevant to the needs of the society. Substantial resources have been expended to boost education in Africa, even though such resources may not have been adequate. The basic problem is that educational structures were formulated by colonialists who had a cultural background different to that obtaining among Africans. Decades of self rule and independence have not succeeded in empowering Africans through enabling them determine their educational framework. In part, this difficulty is a result of the continued social and economic ties between African countries and their former colonising powers. Although Africa is politically independent, it remains technologically and economically dependent on countries that colonised it. Current educational structures are meant mainly to foster this bond, rather than reduce it. Reforms in African education were conceived and implemented within the framework of this relationship, hence they did not go far enough to develop and foster African culture .
The BDT Effect and Future : A Reply to John Lynch and

Lynch (2015) and Schwarz (2015) offer different assessments and perspectives regarding the (“(nearly) accomplished”) mission and characteristics of BDT research and its contribution to our field (Simonson, 2015). Whereas Lynch and I are largely in agreement, Schwarz questions the value of the “mission,” refers to the challenged economics assumptions as a mere “strawman,” and is critical of the BDT focus on effects instead of offering a coherent process theory of decision making. In the first section of this reply, I argue that (a) establishing robust effects followed by a study of moderators, processes, and rivals, was the most effective approach given the field’s mission and audience, and (b) no single framework or theory can account for the many different ways in which the value maximization assumption is violated and decisions are made. Regarding the proposed next research program to study the interactions between the evolving information environment and consumer judgment and choice, both Lynch and Schwarz offer alternative hypotheses. Thus, for example, they both disagree with the suggestion that the ability to easily access more and better information tends to produce better decisions. I discuss the important issues raised by Lynch and Schwarz and the factors that moderate the decision making impact of the information environment. As our exchange demonstrates, this is a rich and important area that offers a wide range of topics and competing predictions that can be addressed in future research. ∗Sebastian S.

Simplicity of Lyapunov spectra: a sufficient criterion

We exhibit an explicit sufficient condition for the Lyapunov exponents of a linear cocycle over a Markov map to have multiplicity 1. This builds on work of Guivarc’h–Raugi and Gol’dsheid–Margulis, who considered products of random matrices, and of Bonatti–Viana, who dealt with the case when the base dynamics is a subshift of finite type. Here the Markov structure may have infinitely many symbols and the ambient space needs not be compact. As an application, in another paper we prove the Zorich– Kontsevich conjecture on the Lyapunov spectrum of the Teichmuller flow in the space of translation surfaces.
