Comparing Job Applicants to Non-Applicants Using an Item-Level Bifactor Model on the HEXACO Personality Inventory
Authors: Anglim Jeromy , Morse Gavin , de Vries Reinout E. , MacCann Carolyn , Marty Andrew
Published: July 2018

The present study evaluated the ability of item-level bifactor models (a) to provide an alternative explanation to current theories of higher-order factors of personality, and (b) to explain socially desirable responding in both job applicant and non-applicant contexts. Participants (46% male; mean age=42 years, SD=11) completed the 200- item HEXACO Personality Inventory-Revised (HEXACO PI-R) either as part of a job application (n = 1613) or as part of low-stakes research (n = 1613). A comprehensive set of invariance test were performed. Applicants scored higher than non-applicants on honesty- humility (d = 0.86), extraversion (d = 0.73), agreeableness (d = 1.06), and conscientiousness (d = 0.77). The bifactor model provided improved model fit relative to a standard correlated factor model, and loadings on the evaluative factor of the bifactor model were highly correlated with other indicators of item social desirability. The bifactor model explained approximately two-thirds of the differences between applicants and non- applicants. Results suggest that rather than being a higher-order construct, the general factor of personality may be caused by an item- level evaluative process. Results highlight the importance of modelling data at the item-level. Implications for conceptualizing social desirability, higher-order structure in personality, test development, and job applicant faking are discussed.
The Consumer Influence of Marketing in the Digital Age: A Meta-Analysis
Authors: Young Miriam
Published: July 2018

This study addresses the issue of the shift from traditional to new media marketing and its effects on the relationship between brands and consumers. Through a systematic analysis of 53 articles and research studies on an array of topics within digital marketing, this paper summarizes the main findings and compiles the major research trends. Through an aggregation of the surveys and studies existing in the current field, the following analysis was constructed, in order to form a dynamic representation of the developments within the process of consumption. The examination of consumer behavior refers to different areas, which were deeply investigated here, including: consumer levels of involvement, the various methods of information transfer, the multiple social networking platforms, and the ways these are utilized towards purchasing decisions. As this topic has become so intertwined in the marketing world today, this meta-analysis serves as a compilation of the major works of the past twenty years, leading up to this shift in ever-changing levels interactivity. With the introduction of the digital age, the Internet, which didn’t initially possess such transparent ties to the field of consumerism, has managed to reinvent and redefine the entirety of its inner workings.
Helping people choose subgoals with sparse pseudo rewards
Authors: Callaway Frederick , Lieder Falk , Krueger Paul , Griffiths Tom
Published: July 2018

Many decisions require planning multiple steps into the future, but optimal planning is computationally intractable. One way people cope with this problem is by setting subgoals, suggesting that we can help people make better decisions by helping them identify good subgoals. Here, we evaluate the benefits and perils of highlighting potential subgoals with pseudo-rewards. We first show that sparse pseudo-rewards based on the value function of a Markov decision process (MDP) lead a limited-depth planner to follow the optimal policy in that MDP. We then demonstrate the effectiveness of these pseudo-rewards in an online experiment. Each of 88 participants solved 40 sequential decision-making problems. In control trials, participants only saw the state-transition diagram and the reward structure. In experimental trials, participants additionally saw pseudo-rewards equal to the value (sum of future rewards) for the states 1-, 2-, or 3-steps ahead of the current state. When participants reached one of those states, the display would again reveal the values of the states located 1-, 2-, or 3-steps ahead of the current state. We found that showing participants the value of proximal states induced goal-directed planning and improved their average score per second. This benefit was largest when the incentives were 1 or 2 steps away and decreased as they were moved farther into the future. Although these pseudo- rewards were beneficial overall, they also caused systematic errors: Participants sometimes neglected the costs and rewards along the paths to potential subgoals, leading them to make “unwarranted sacrifices” in the pursuit of the most valuable highlighted states. Overall, our results suggest that highlighting valuable future states with pseudo-rewards can help people make better decisions. More research is needed to understand what constitutes optimal subgoals and how to better assist people in selecting them.

Perubahan Paradigma Penelitian Pada Ilmu Komunikasi
Authors: Shahreza Mirza
Published: July 2018

The purpose of this paper is to describe and compare a new and old paradigm in the context of communication science. The paradigm (approach, perspective, method, theory) of communication science has entered several phases of change. These phases are categorized and presented in different terms by experts who describe social reality. The categories are: first, pre-positivism begins at the time of Aristotle (350 BC) to David Hume (1750), both positivism, and third postcapositivism. Broadly divided into two categories, namely objective approach (behavioristik and structural) and subjective approach (phenomenolgis or interpretative). These scholars cite with different (perspective) terms, but may refer to the same intent, otherwise the same term sometimes has a different meaning, depending on who mentions the perspective.
Empowering Parents and Protecting Children in an Evolving Media Landscape
Authors: Palfrey John , Gasser Urs , boyd danah
Published: July 2018

When it comes to youth and technology, issues of concern about the future – rather than issues related to opportunities – often dominate the public discourse. This is understandable. First, parents and grandparents are often baffled by, and sometimes concerned about, the habits of their children and the generations that follow – and this shift in behavior by many youth is surely no exception to that rule. Second, we are in the midst of radical transformations in the information technology environment and in patterns of usage of technology, changes that are bringing with them much creativity but also challenges to existing hierarchies. And third, adults perceive that their children are more likely to use these new information technologies in ways that are at best perplexing and at worst dangerous to themselves and to society. The data collected by social scientists about young people, how they use technologies, and the challenges and opportunities they face often are at odds with this public perception. We appreciate the frame of the FCC’s NOI, which encourages respondents to focus on the empowerment of parents as well as the protection of our children with respect to online behaviors.

Neuroscience and the possibility of locally determined choices: Reply to Adina Roskies and Eddy Nahmias
Authors: Fischborn Marcelo
Published: July 2018

In a previous paper (Fischborn, 2016), I argued that neuroscience and psychology could in principle undermine libertarian free will by providing support for a subset of what I called ‘statements of local determination’. I also argued that Libet-style experiments have not so far supported statements of that sort. In a commentary to the paper, Adina Roskies and Eddy Nahmias (2016) accept the claim about Libet-style experiments, but reject the claim about the possibilities of neuroscience. Here I explain why I still disagree with their conclusion, despite being sympathetic to a lot of what they say in support of it.

Esta comunicación presenta una investigación ontológica en el marco de una hermenéutica díatópica interdisciplinaria para los estudios de paz y de la violencia desde una perspectiva de realismo crítico. Objetivos. El objetivo principal es desvelar dinamismos profundos de la psique que se expresan en mitos para un diálogo, no-etnocéntrico, de enriquecimiento intercultural recíproco. Diseño. Las referencias conceptuales combinan el interaccionismo simbólico y la mitocrítica (ISM) amplificados con la perspectiva junguiana de lo inconsciente colectivo (PJ). Método. Materiales. Dos relatos míticos recogidos por el investigador en dos culturas distintas: “El surgimiento de los guerreros yanomamis” de la etnia amazónica y “Etsai y Axular” de la cultura euskaldun en Europa. La técnica consiste en integrar el análisis de los mitos mediante técnicas de análisis de sueños (PJ) con su uso comunicativo y de aprendizaje social (ISM). Hallazgos. Estos mitos aportan aspectos que propician la paz y están ausentes en los sistemas de valores de la cultura occidental patriarcal hegemónica. El mito yanomami: origen de la consciencia humana sin culpa, relación con la complejidad, incorporación de lo femenino. El mito vasco: Incorporar el mal, trascender el dualismo. Conclusiones. Los resultados tienen «consistencia hermenéutica» en una explicación coherente. Los mitos activan informaciones profundas que generan consciencia y acciones performativas para cambiar las condiciones de guerra y construir la paz. Interés de la investigación. Aporta conocimientos de la psicología profunda y un método para estudiar la estructura y organización de la acción humana que no están presentes en los estudios de paz.
Bayesian models of child development
Authors: Bonawitz Elizabeth , gopnik alison
Published: July 2018

Bayesian models have been applied to many areas of cognitive science including vision, language, and motor learning. We discuss the implications of this framework for cognitive development. We first present a brief introduction to the Bayesian framework. Bayesian models make assumptions about representation explicit, and provide a detailed account of learning. Furthermore, they can provide an account of developmental transitions and other phenomena in development, such as curiosity and exploration. Drawing on recent work bridging empirical developmental data and modeling, we show that these features of the Bayesian approach provide solutions to problems that elude traditional accounts of learning and raise new areas of investigation.
A Dynamic Approach to Recognition Memory
Authors: Cox Gregory Edward , Shiffrin Rich
Published: July 2018

We present a dynamic model of memory that integrates the processes of perception, retrieval from knowledge, retrieval of events, and decision making as these evolve from one moment to the next. The core of the model is that recognition depends on tracking changes in familiarity over time from an initial baseline generally determined by context, with these changes depending on the availability of different kinds of information at different times. A mathematical implementation of this model leads to precise, accurate predictions of accuracy, response time, and speed-accuracy trade-off in episodic recognition at the levels of both groups and individuals across a variety of paradigms. Our approach leads to novel insights regarding word frequency, speeded responding, context reinstatement, short-term priming, similarity, source memory, and associative recognition, revealing how the same set of core dynamic principles can help unify otherwise disparate phenomena in the study of memory.
Screen Time Versus Face Time: How Social Media Usage Affects Time Spent Face to Face
Authors: Donlevie Kristen
Published: July 2018

How has the recent surge in social media network usage affected in-person social interaction? As the Internet continues to become more integrated in everyday forms of communication and interaction, sociologists disagree about the implications it will have on in-person socialization. Some argue that social media will revolutionize social interactions, while others believe that it will lead to a loss of privacy and an increase in isolation. I propose that the more social media networks an individual is a regular user of, the fewer days they will interact face-to-face with other people. Using 685 responses garnered from computer-assisted interviews in the 2016 General Social Survey, regression analyses were conducted to determine the relationship between social media network usage and in-person social interaction while controlling for age. Results from bivariate analysis show a positive but weak association between social media usage and in-person social interaction, revealing that the more networks an individual used, the more they interacted with others in-person. In multivariate results, this relationship disappeared. The results do not support the hypothesis, but instead indicate that age is a more important predictor of decreased in-person social interaction. In future studies, researchers should investigate the effects of social media usage on in-person social interaction with larger samples and more in-depth questions about the ways in which social media networks are being used and time spent online.
Spatially selective responses to Kanizsa and occlusion stimuli in human visual cortex
Authors: de Haas Benjamin , Schwarzkopf D. Samuel
Published: July 2018

Early visual cortex responds to illusory contours in which abutting lines or collinear edges imply the presence of an occluding surface, as well as to occluded parts of an object. Here we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and population receptive field (pRF) analysis to map retinotopic responses in early visual cortex using bar stimuli defined by illusory contours, occluded parts of a bar, or subtle luminance contrast. All conditions produced retinotopic responses in early visual field maps even though signal-to-noise ratios were very low. We found that signal-to-noise ratios and coherence with independent high-contrast mapping data increased from V1 to V2 to V3. Moreover, we found no differences of signal-to-noise ratios or pRF sizes between the low-contrast luminance and illusion conditions. We propose that all three conditions mapped spatial attention to the bar location rather than activations specifically related to illusory contours or occlusion.

Column Study of Nitrate Downward Movement and Selected Soil Chemical Properties’ Changes in Mine Spoiled Soil as Influenced by Liquid Organic Fertilizer
Authors: Muktamar Zainal , Hasibuan Sari , Suryati Dotti , Setyowati Nanik
Published: July 2018

Open pit coal mining is common practice to extract coal from lithosphere. This system, however, will bring about soil degradation. Organic fertilization is an alternative to recover fertility of the degraded soil. The objectives of the experiment were to determine nitrate downward movement and change of selected chemical properties in the soil column and to compare the growth of lamtoro (Leucaena leucocephala) as affected by local based liquid organic fertilizer. Column experiment was conducted using mine spoiled soil from Taba Penanjung Sub-District, Central of Bengkulu District, Bengkulu, Indonesia located at approximately 364.5 m above sea level. The experimental design was Completely Randomized Design with 3 treatments consisting of control, 75 and 150 ppm of local based liquid organic fertilizer (LOF). The treatment was replicated 3 times. Soil column was prepared using PVC pipe with diameter of 12.5 cm and length of 40 cm. Soil sample was put into the column and compacted by knocking the base of the column until the soil height achieved 35 cm. Lamtoro was raised in the column for 11 weeks. At the end of experiment, lamtoro shoot was cut and the PVC column was cleaved horizontally and soil was pushed out from the column. Soil sample was, then, sliced into 6 fractions, representing depth of 0-5, 5-10, 10-15, 15-20, 20-25, and > 25 cm. Fresh soil sample from each depth was extracted by distillated water and analyzed for NO3- N. Remaining of soil samples was air-dried for 72 hours, grinded with 0.5 mm screen, and analyzed for available P, exchangeable K, soil pH and exchangeable Al. The experiment indicated that local based liquid fertilizer significantly increased soil NO3-N, available P, exchangeable K, soil pH and reduced exchangeable Al. Higher rates of LOF caused increase in selected soil chemical properties but exchangeable Al. However, NO3-N was potential to move downward to deeper depth of the soil profile. Change of exchangeable Al, soil pH and exchangeable K was observed until 20-25 m depth of soil profile, but change of available P was detected only to 10-15 cm depth. Better soil chemical properties were followed by enhancement of lamtoro growth.

Rational Variability in Children’s Causal Inferences: The Sampling Hypothesis
Authors: Denison Stephanie , Bonawitz Elizabeth , gopnik alison , Griffiths Tom
Published: July 2018

We present a proposal—“The Sampling Hypothesis”—suggesting that the variability in young children’s responses may be part of a rational strategy for inductive inference. In particular, we argue that young learners may be randomly sampling from the set of possible hypotheses that explain the observed data, producing different hypotheses with frequencies that reflect their subjective probability. We test the Sampling Hypothesis with four experiments on four- and five-year-olds. In these experiments, children saw a distribution of colored blocks and an event involving one of these blocks. In the first experiment, one block fell randomly and invisibly into a machine, and children made multiple guesses about the color of the block, either immediately or after a one-week delay. The distribution of guesses was consistent with the distribution of block colors, and the dependence between guesses decreased as a function of the time between guesses. In Experiments 2 and 3 the probability of different colors was systematically varied by condition. Preschoolers’ guesses tracked the probabilities of the colors, as should be the case if they are sampling from the set of possible explanatory hypotheses. Experiment 4 used a more complicated two-step process to randomly select a block and found that the distribution of children’s guesses matched the probabilities resulting from this process rather than the overall frequency of different colors. This suggests that the children’s probability matching reflects sophisticated probabilistic inferences and is not merely the result of a naïve tabulation of frequencies. Taken together the four experiments provide support for the Sampling Hypothesis, and the idea that there may be a rational explanation for the variability of children’s responses in domains like causal inference.

Estudio de la degradación de la Materia Orgánica en el agua de mar. Efectos del aumento de la concentración en Materia Orgánica sobre la eficacia de los procesos de descomposición.
Authors: Senior William James
Published: July 2018

Una muestra de agua recolectada en el estuario del Elorn (Brest, Francia) fue incubada durante 118 días en los oscuridad a temperatura ambiente, con la finalidad de determinar el grado y la proporción de la degradación del carbono orgánico particulado (COP), de los carbohidratos particulados (CHOP) y de las proteínas particuladas (PROT). Los estudios se realizaron con agua de mar y con agua de mar enriquecida con agua proveniente de un efluente urbano. Las concentraciones de COP, CHOP y PROT disminuyeron rápidamente durante los primeros cinco días en ambos experimentos. La fracción más lábil representa cerca del 54 % del COP, 70 % del CHOP y 46% de las PROT. Las constantes de degradación de primer orden para la primera fase de la descomposición fueron aproximadamente 0,13 día-1 para el COP, 0,21 día-1 para el CHOP y de 0,12 día-1 para las PROT. El coeficiente de degradación no es afectado por las concentraciones de materia orgánica en las muestras, como se esperaba para reacciones de primer orden. Durante la primera fase de la descomposición el carbono orgánico disuelto (COD) y los carbohidratos disueltos (CHOD) aumentan su concentración , sugiriendo una transformación del material particulado en disuelto.

Influence of condensation and latent heat release upon barotropic and baroclinic instabilities of vortices in rotating shallow water f -plane model
Authors: Rostami
Published: July 2018

Analysis of the influence of condensation and related latent heat release upon developing barotropic and baroclinic instabilities of large-scale low Rossby-number shielded vortices on the f - plane is performed within the moist-convective rotating shallow water model, in its barotropic (one-layer) and baroclinic (two-layer) versions. Numerical simulations with a high-resolution well-balanced finite-volume code, using a relaxation parameterisation for condensation, are made. Evolution of the instability in four different environments, with humidity (i) behaving as passive scalar, (ii) subject to condensation beyond a saturation threshold, (iii) sub-ject to condensation and evaporation, with two different parameterisations of the latter, are inter-ompared.The simulations are initialised with unstable modes determined from the detailed linear stability analysis in the “dry” version of the model. In a configuration corresponding to low-level mid-latitude atmospheric vortices, it is shown that the known scenario of evolution of barotropically unstable vortices, consisting information of a pair of dipoles (“dipolar breakdown”) is substantially modified by condensation and related moist convection, especially in the presence of surface evaporation. No enhancement of the instability due to precipitation was detected in this case. Cyclone-anticyclone asymmetry with respect to sensitivity tothe moist effects is evidenced. It is shown that inertia-gravity wave emission during the vortex evolution is enhanced by the moist effects. In the baroclinic configuration corresponding to idealised cut-off lows in the atmosphere, it is shown that the azimuthal structure of the leading unstable mode is sensitive to the details of stratification. Scenarios of evolution are completely different for different azimuthal structures, one leading to dipolar breaking, and another to tripole formation. The effects of moisture considerably enhance the perturbations in the lower layer, especially in the tripole formation scenario.

Published: July 2018

Quinine plant (Cinchona ledgeriana) is widely used in the industrial and pharmaceutical world because these plants contain high alkaloid compounds. In 1950, Szkolnik reported some nematodes that infect this plant in India and Java. Furthermore, in 1977, Koch also reported the development of nematode genus which associated with this plant. Since 1977 up to now there has been no update information about nematodes in quinine plant, especially in Indonesia. This study aimed to obtain information about nematode genus contained in rhizosphere and roots of quinine plants at the Gambung quinine field area, West Java, Indonesia. A total of 10 samples of rhizosphere soil and roots of quinine plants extracted from a depth of 10 cm. Nematodes in soil samples were extracted using centrifugation- floatation methods, and nematodes in root samples were extracted using a mist chamber. The absolute population density and the frequency distribution were calculated from the successfully extracted nematodes. The results showed that plant parasitic nematodes in the rhizosphere of quinine plants are Helicotylenchus sp., Hoplolaimus sp., Meloidogyne sp., Pratylenchus sp., Radopholus sp., Tylenchus sp., and Xiphinema sp. In the quinine plant roots, there were 6 species of plant parasitic nematodes ie, Aphelenchoides sp., Helicotylenchus sp., Meloidogyne sp., Pratylenchus sp., Radopholus sp., and Tylenchus sp. Nematode of Xiphinema sp., Helicotylenchus sp., Meloidogyne sp., Pratylenchus sp., and Radopholus sp. has 100% distribution in quinine plant.

In keeping with the growing movement in scientific publishing toward transparency in data and methods, we propose changes to journal authorship policies and procedures to provide insight into which author is responsible for which contributions, better assurance that the list is complete, and clearly articulated standards to justify earning authorship credit. To accomplish these goals, we recommend that journals adopt common and transparent standards for authorship, outline responsibilities for corresponding authors, adopt the Contributor Roles Taxonomy (CRediT) (docs.casrai.org/CRediT) methodology for attributing contributions, include this information in article metadata, and require authors to use the ORCID persistent digital identifier (https://orcid.org). Additionally, we recommend that universities and research institutions articulate expectations about author roles and responsibilities to provide a point of common understanding for discussion of authorship across research teams. Furthermore, we propose that funding agencies adopt the ORCID identifier and accept the CRediT taxonomy. We encourage scientific societies to further authorship transparency by signing on to these recommendations and promoting them through their meetings and publications programs.

Minimizing Flow Completion Times using Adaptive Routing over Inter-Datacenter Wide Area Networks
Authors: Noormohammadpour Max , Raghavendra Cauligi S.
Published: July 2018

Inter-datacenter networks connect dozens of geographically dispersed datacenters and carry traffic flows with highly variable sizes and different classes. Adaptive flow routing can improve efficiency and performance by assigning paths to new flows according to network status and flow properties. A popular approach widely used for traffic engineering is based on current bandwidth utilization of links. We propose an alternative that reduces bandwidth usage by up to at least 50% and flow completion times by up to at least 40% across various scheduling policies and flow size distributions.
Combating against Byzantine Attacks in MANET using Enhanced Cooperative Bait Detection Scheme (ECBDS)
Authors: Mehta Anuj
Published: July 2018

Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) is an accumulation of versatile, decentralized, and self composed nodes. The distributive nature, base less & element structure make it a simple prey to security related dangers. The security dangers may change from dynamic mimic threats to passive eves-dropping. Actualizing Security & alleviating dangers in MANET has Significant difficulties on the grounds that its dynamic properties make it harder to be secured than alternate sorts of static systems. Implementing Security & mitigating threats in MANET has Significant challenges because its dynamic properties make it harder to be secured than the other types of static networks. We are using Enhanced CBDS technique here, so that we can save our network from the Byzantine attacks. This dissertation proposes an enhanced cooperative bait detection scheme (ECBDS) to combat the byzantine attack over MANET. This plan combine the proactive and receptive resistance building design in MANET by utilizing the virtual and non-existent destination location to trap the malicious nodes creating Byanzine attack. Implementation will be done using MATLAB and result will be shown on the basis of energy consumption of nodes and QoS parameters like throughput and delay etc.

Paradigma pendidikan seyogyanya selalu mengacu pada kualitas yang berkelanjutan, dan bahwa kualitas yang berkelanjutan yang dilandasi kreativitas, dan produktivitas pribadi sivitas dapat dirangsang oleh pola manajemen yang berasaskan otonomi dan harus senapas dengan akuntabilitas (pertanggungjawaban), dan bahwa hak masyarakat untuk memperoleh informasi yang handal dan sahih mengenai penyelengaraan, kinerja dan hasil diaktualisasikan melalui proses akreditasi dan bahwa tindakan manajerial utama yang melandasi pengambilan keputusan dan perencanaan di lembaga pendidikan adalah proses evaluasi. Dengan demikian pengelolaan manajemen lembaga pendidikan harus berorientasi pada prisma hubungan keterkaitan antara lima komponen paradigma baru yang bermuara pada “KUALITAS” artinya, lulusan haruslah berkualitas sebagai salah satu hasil kinerja seolah yang dikelola dengan manajemen lembaga pendidikan yang otonom, akuntabel, terakreditasi dan senantiasa dievaluasi.

The mission of nonprofit funders dictates that research resulting from our funding be freely accessed by our patients and families to help make informed decisions about care, and by our boards and donors to be able to evaluate the impact of our funding. But it is equally critical to our mission that data resulting from our support be published in a machine-readable form and available in easily accessible and open data formats to enable reuse by other researchers. In addition, as technology evolves the need and the ability to share to all research outputs must evolve with it. Only then can the impact of the research be multiplied - increasing the potential for significant and far-reaching advances and scientific innovation.
Age and Gender Differences in Self-Esteem—A Cross-Cultural Window

Published: July 2018

Research and theorizing on gender and age differences in self-esteem have played a prominent role in psychology over the past 20 years. However, virtually all empirical research has been undertaken in the United States or other Western industrialized countries, providing a narrow empirical base from which to draw conclusions and develop theory. To broaden the empirical base, the present research uses a large Internet sample (N 985,937) to provide the first large-scale systematic cross-cultural examination of gender and age differences in self-esteem. Across 48 nations, and consistent with previous research, wefound age-related increases in self-esteem from late adolescence to middle adulthood and significant gender gaps, with males consistently reporting higher self-esteem than females. Despite these broad cross-cultural similarities, the cultures differed significantly in the magnitude of gender, age, and Gender Age effects on self-esteem. These differences were associated with cultural differences in socioeconomic, sociodemographic, gender-equality, and cultural value indicators. Discussion focuses on the theoretical implications of cross-cultural research on self-esteem.

Attitudes and motivations have been shown to affect the processing of visual input, indicating that observers may see a given situation each literally in a different way. Yet, in real-life, processing information in an unbiased manner is considered to be of high adaptive value. Attitudinal and motivational effects were found for attention, characterization, categorization, and memory. On the other hand, for dynamic real-life events, visual processing has been found to be highly synchronous among viewers. Thus, while in a seminal study fandom as a particularly strong case of attitudes did bias judgments of a sports event, it left the question open whether attitudes do bias prior processing stages. Here, we investigated influences of fandom during the live TV broadcasting of the 2013 UEFA-Champions-League Final regarding attention, event segmentation, immediate and delayed cued recall, as well as affect, memory confidence, and retrospective judgments. Even though we replicated biased retrospective judgments, we found that eye-movements, event segmentation, and cued recall were largely similar across both groups of fans. Our findings demonstrate that, while highly involving sports events are interpreted in a fan dependent way, at initial stages they are processed in an unbiased manner.
