Whether you are smart or kind depends on how I feel: The influence of positive and negative mood on agency and communion perception
Authors: Szymkow Aleksandra 
Published: December 2014

Abstract
Feelings-as-information theory states that feelings inform us about the nature of our current situation and we rely on them to make our judgments. Beyond that, feelings tune our cognitive processes to meet situational requirements. Positive feelings result in relying on pre-existing knowledge structures and default strategies, whereas negative feelings hamper relying on routines and results in adapting systematic processing. Based on this premise, it was hypothesized that positive mood, elicited either by the perceived target or by the independent source, would lead to relying on accessible agentic or communal content in perceiving strangers, as well as familiar others, whereas negative mood would weaken these tendencies. Specifically, the three studies showed initial evidence that (a) positive mood leads to focusing on agencyrelated qualities in perception of unknown men to a greater extent than negative mood, (b) positive mood leads to focusing on communion-related qualities in perception of unknown women more than negative mood, and(c) positive mood leads to relying on communal content in perception of familiar others comparing to negative mood.
The mystery of communion in narcissism: The success-as-a-flaw effect
Authors: Drat-Ruszczak Krystyna , Bazińska Róża , Niemyjska Aleksandra 
Published: December 2014

Abstract
In the present paper we consider the specific relationship between communal and agentic functioning of narcissistic individuals. The study was aimed to test whether narcissist’s aggression is due to not only negative information about their agency but also positive information about their communion. Whereas the first effect is well- documented in empirical studies, the second effect has been revealed in our prior research. The results of the present study confirmed both effects: negative information about one’s agency increased aggressive tendencies (operationalized as a display of demeaning behavior) and decreased state self-esteem, while positive information about one’s communion resulted only in displaced aggression. The aggressive response to positive communal information is discussed as the success-as-aflaw effect, which we mean as inverse of the failure-as-an asset effect. According to the success-as-a-flaw effect, positive outcomes in the communal domain, considered by narcissists to be an evidence of low-status, are threatening for the grandiose self, based on the domain of agency. The social cognitive and clinical approach is employed to interpret these results.
Distraction of attention with the use of virtual reality. Influence of the level of game complexity on the level of experienced pain
Authors: Piskorz Joanna , Czub Marcin 
Published: December 2014

Abstract
: Research done in recent years shows that Virtual Reality (VR) can be an effective tool for distracting attention from pain. The purpose of this study was to test how the complexity of Virtual Environment (VE) influences the experienced intensity of thermal pain stimuli.
A within-subjects design experiment was conducted, using cold pressor test for pain stimulation. Research was done on 31 students of Wroclaw Universities. Participants played games created for the purpose of the study, using head mounted displays and movement sensors. Two Virtual Environments differing in the level of complexity and non-VR control condition were used. The order of all conditions was counterbalanced.
Participants reported significantly lower pain intensity (Visual Analogue Scale) after playing the high complexity game, compared to the low complexity game. There were also significant differences between non-VR control condition and high complexity game, but not between non-VR and low complexity game. The pain tolerance (measured by time of keeping the hand in cold water) was significantly higher in both VR conditions comparing to non-VR conditions. However, no significant differences between VE’s were found in pain tolerance ratings. Results of this study provide preliminary evidence that game complexity can be related to pain experience during VR interventions.

Published: December 2014

Background
In patient-centered practice, instruments need to assess outcomes that are meaningful to patients with hand conditions. It is unclear which assessment tools address these subjective perspectives best.

Objective
The aim of this study was to establish the construct validity of the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) in relation to the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire and the Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire (MHQ) in people with hand conditions. It was hypothesized that COPM scores would correlate with DASH and MHQ total scores only to a moderate degree and that the COPM, DASH questionnaire, and MHQ would all correlate weakly with measures of hand impairments.

Design
This was a validation study.

Methods
The COPM, DASH questionnaire, and MHQ were scored, and then hand impairments were measured (pain [numerical rating scale], active range of motion [goniometer], grip strength [dynamometer], and pinch grip strength [pinch meter]). People who had received postsurgery rehabilitation for flexor tendon injuries, extensor tendon injuries, or Dupuytren disease were eligible.

Results
Seventy-two participants were included. For all diagnosis groups, the Pearson coefficient of correlation between the DASH questionnaire and the MHQ was higher than .60, whereas the correlation between the performance scale of the COPM and either the DASH questionnaire or the MHQ was lower than .51. Correlations of these assessment tools with measures of hand impairments were lower than .46.

Limitations
The small sample sizes may limit the generalization of the results.

Conclusions
The results supported the hypotheses and, thus, the construct validity of the COPM after surgery in people with hand conditions.
Time-Resolved X-Ray Diffraction Stress Analysis during Laser Surface Hardening of Steel
Authors: Kostov V. , Gibmeier J. , Wanner A. 
Published: December 2014

Abstract

The time- and temperature-dependent phase specific stress evolution, the residual stress distribution as well as the resulting microstructure of the heat treatable steel AISI 4140, generated by laser surface hardening was investigated. Using a measuring approach presented in [1] fast in-situ synchrotron X-ray stress analysis with sampling rates up to 10 Hz were carried out during laser surface hardening. Tests were carried out with maximum process temperatures of 850 °C, 1150 °C and 1300 °C. The results show that compressive stresses are induced inside the laser spot during the heating-up step. During the subsequent self-quenching step, these compressive stresses are reduced and tensile stresses develop. As martensite transformation starts, the tendency is reversed again and finally compressive residual stresses are obtained at room temperature. The in-situ stress analyses give a deep insight into the stress evolutions for the three maximum process temperatures. Results also show that, the higher the maximum process temperature, the smaller are the resulting compressive residual stresses.
Spray-Formed Bearing Steel with High Oxide Cleanliness and Small and Fine Dispersed Inclusions*

Abstract

Rolling contact bearings belong to the most highly-stressed components in mechanical engineering. This demands high quality of the bearing steels, especially high-fatigue strength. Today bearing steels are produced by ingot casting or continuous casting. The premium quality is achieved by refining technologies, e. g. vacuum-arc remelting. In this point spray forming opens up another promising technology. Billets and rings from the bearing steel 100CrMnMoSi8-4-6 (W7) have been spray-formed on a laboratory plant with weight up to 80 kg and were analyzed. The spray-formed materials were hot-worked to round bars and rings. Microstructure, the size and distribution of inclusions and the chemical composition were analyzed. Rolling-contact fatigue tests and rotary-bending tests were performed. The results are compared with standard bearing steels. Core porosity of the spray-formed billets is low but because of increased rim porosity this material must be removed to avoid cracking during hot working. Hot working is required to close inner porosity. Rings could be ring-rolled immediately. The cleanliness is much better than typical for high quality conventional bearing steel of similar composition. Despite low degree of deformation no carbide network and no carbide stringers are visible. In the rolling-fatigue tests spray-formed W7 during hot working reaches similar values as a conventionally variant. Thus, beside reduced size of inclusions the removal of residual porosity is the dominating factor on enhanced fatigue resistance of spray-formed bearing steel.

OBJECT
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of rod stiffness and implant density on coronal and sagittal plane correction in patients with main thoracic curve adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).

METHODS
The authors conducted a retrospective study of 77 consecutive cases involving 56 female and 21 male patients with Lenke Type 1 main thoracic curve AIS who underwent single-stage posterior correction and instrumented spinal fusion with pedicle screw fixation between July 2009 and July 2012. The patients' mean age at surgery was 15.79 ± 3.21 years. All patients had at least 1 year of follow-up. Radiological parameters in the coronal and sagittal planes, including Cobb angle of the major curve, side-bending Cobb angle of the major curve, thoracic kyphosis (TK), correction rates, and screw density, were measured and analyzed. Screw densities (calculated as number of screws per fusion segment × 2) of < 0.60 and ≥ 0.60 were defined as low and high density, respectively. Titanium rods of 5.5 mm and 6.35 mm diameter were defined as low and high stiffness, respectively. Patients were divided into 4 groups based on the type of rod and density of screw placement that had been used: Group A, low-stiffness rod with low density of screw placement; Group B, low-stiffness rod with high density of screw placement; Group C, high-stiffness rod with low density of screw placement; Group D, high-stiffness rod with high density of screw placement.

RESULTS
The mean coronal correction rate of the major curve, for all 77 patients, was (81.45% ± 7.51%), and no significant difference was found among the 4 groups (p > 0.05). Regarding sagittal plane correction, Group A showed a significant decrease in TK after surgery (p < 0.05), while Group D showed a significant increase (p < 0.05); Group B and C showed no significant postoperative changes in TK (p > 0.05). The TK restoration rate was highest in Group D and lowest in Group A (A, −39.32% ± 7.65%; B, −0.37% ± 8.25%; C, −4.04% ± 6.77%; D, 37.59% ± 8.53%). Screw density on the concave side was significantly higher than that on the convex side in all the groups (p < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS
For flexible main thoracic curve AIS, both rods with high stiffness and those with low stiffness combined with high or low screw density could provide effective correction in the coronal plane; rods with high stiffness along with high screw density on the concave side could provide better outcome with respect to sagittal TK restoration.
Transition démocratique et culture en Méditerranée
Authors: Moustier Emmanuelle , Soldo Edina 
Published: December 2014

Dans le contexte post-révolution des sociétés du sud de la Méditerranée, il apparaît essentiel de questionner la notion de démocratie et les conditions d’émergence d’une société démocratique. Il apparaît alors que la démocratie ne peut être conçue comme un « état » définitif, propre à un régime politique spécifique, mais bien pensée comme un « processus culturel » à réinterroger en permanence (Partie 1). Dès lors, lorsque l’on analyse les transformations profondes que connaissent les sociétés du sud de la Méditerranée, des trajectoires se dessinent, dont émergent plusieurs marqueurs forts d’une transition démocratique. Si certains de ces marqueurs étaient déjà perceptibles avant les insurrections, d’autres ont été clairement révélés par ces mouvements. Les activités artistiques ou culturelles, au cour des processus de structuration sociétale apparaissent alors comme des vecteurs essentiels qu’il convient de soutenir (Partie 2).
Quelle stratégie américaine dans un monde arabe changeant : New deal ou continuité ?
Authors: Ben Lamma Mohammed Faraj 
Published: December 2014

Depuis la fin de la guerre froide, les États-Unis sont devenus sans conteste les grands maîtres du jeu dans l’espace Méditerranée-Moyen-Orient. Sur ce théâtre, l’intérêt stratégique américain s’articule autour d’une triade : maintenir les intérêts économiques garantir la sécurité d’Israël en maintenant sa supériorité militaire, combattre contre les viviers du terrorisme ou d’éventuelles interventions militaires au Moyen-Orient pour assurer la sécurité des monarchies arabes du Golfe. Les changements politiques qui ont bouleversé le monde arabe en 2011 et 2012 ont aussi transformé la politique étrangère des états investis dans la région. Washington semble vouloir saisir l’opportunité des révoltes arabes pour peser et influer sur cette région stratégique, une fois les nouvelles élites, notamment islamistes, arrivées au pouvoir.
Le tournant libidinal du capitalisme
Authors: Dufour Dany-Robert 
Published: December 2014

Ce texte propose de développer l’hypothèse suivante : la crise de 1929 a été l’occasion d’une reconfiguration complète du capitalisme, laquelle a permis, à terme, l’invention d’un nouveau modèle communément appelé « société de consommation ». Nous sommes alors passés d’un capitalisme essentiellement de production à un capitalisme faisant la part belle à la consommation, d’un capitalisme répressif à un capitalisme libidinal. Dans cette perspective, la crise commencée en 2008 correspond à une mise en crise de ce modèle consommatoire. Voire à une fin de cycle.
La consommation et la radicalisation de la culture moderne de l'authenticité et de l'expressivité
Authors: Taylor Charles 
Published: December 2014

Dans cet extrait de son livre La Diversité de l’expérience religieuse aujourd’hui , publié en français en 2003, Taylor décrit comment l’essor de la consommation, dans la deuxième moitié du XX e siècle, a été permis par sa syntonie avec la culture moderne de l’authenticité et de l’expressivité développée dans le romantisme en la massifiant au-delà de l’élite bourgeoise, en rapport avec le développement des moyens de communication et d’une culture spécifiquement jeune. Si la consommation a pu devenir un phénomène aussi important aujourd’hui, c’est parce que les biens et les services ont servi de moyens d’expression pour cette culture de l’authenticité dans laquelle chacun doit réaliser sa propre humanité et la faire reconnaître.
La simulation de la consommation par la production : le cas des jeans « déjà portés »
Authors: Miller Daniel 
Published: December 2014

La plupart des personnes pensent que la technique correspond à ce qui vient en amont du produit. Dans ce bref article, Daniel Miller s’intéresse plutôt au cas où l’ordre de la séquence est renversé et où le produit précède, ou initie, en quelque sorte, la technique. L’auteur décrit les techniques d’usure artificielle des blue-jeans : une technique qui vise à copier les effets du port des blue-jeans. Il aborde ainsi la consommation comme une forme de production ou de technologie et la production comme une simple conséquence de la consommation.
L'approche psychanalytique de l'observation du bébé dans sa famille, quel apport pour le groupe ?
Authors: Mellier Denis 
Published: December 2014

L’auteur montre comment l’observation du bébé dans sa famille selon la méthode d’Esther Bick est un apport pour la psychanalyse groupale. Il indique d’abord comment les observations sont distinguées pour situer cette démarche du côté d’un processus subjectivant et rappelle l’intérêt de l’observation en clinique institutionnelle. Il présente ensuite cette formation analytique qui répond à la nouvelle conception de M. Klein sur l’origine du transfert, celle des premières relations objectales infantiles. Les différents temps constitutifs de cette méthode, celui de l’écriture de l’observation après-coup et celui du travail associatif des points de vue en séminaire, sont ainsi au service du positionnement que l’observateur doit réaliser au domicile d’une famille où un bébé vient de naître. Il illustre enfin les difficultés de contenance de l’observateur, et du travail du séminaire, avec quelques extraits de situations qui induisent de forts clivages émotionnels.
Residential self-selection in travel behavior: Towards an integration into mobility biographies
Authors: Scheiner Joachim 
Published: December 2014

The debate on residential self-selection (RSS) in the travel field seeks to answer the question of whether and to what extent spatial differences in traveling may be explained in spatial terms or to what extent, rather, they are explained by the unequal spatial distribution of people’s social and personal characteristics, particularly their neighborhood and travel preferences. Arguing primarily from a European—specifically, German— perspective, this paper makes a case for integrating the RSS-travel link into the mobility biographies approach that has emerged over the past decade. This approach addresses travel behavior as being embedded in other “spheres” of an individual’s life course, most notably the household and family biographies, the employment biography, and the residential biography. This paper argues that stability and change in travel behavior
must be considered not only in concert with residential location choice, but also in the wider context of life course, in which residential choices themselves are embedded. Some unresolved issues in the RSS-travel debate that seem to be of key importance for the current debate are discussed, including various aspects of residential location choice, the role of preferences, and implications for spatial planning and transport planning. The benefits of taking a biographical perspective are also pointed out.
Satisfaction with travel and residential self-selection: How do preferences moderate the impact of the Hiawatha Light Rail Transit line?
Authors: Cao Jason , Ettema Dick 
Published: December 2014

Policies in urban and transportation planning increasingly aim at improving residents’ wellbeing. Satisfaction with travel (SWT) is a relevant component of well-being. Insight into the effect of the built environment on SWT is limited and therefore the focus of this paper. To assess this effect, a crucial issue is to what extent a relationship between the built environment and SWT is due to residential self-selection. To explore this question, a survey was held in corridors of the Twin Cities, which differed in terms of accessibility and transit options. Respondents reported their SWT, travel preferences and reasons for location choices,
among other things. Using a fixed-effect model of SWT, we found that self-selection plays a significant role in explaining SWT, but that built environment characteristics also have an independent effect on SWT. Taken together this suggests that policies to build high-quality transit have a positive effect on SWT, in general, and particularly for those with a transit preference.

Uma grande variedade de oleaginosas pode ser utilizada como matéria prima na produção de biodiesel, como soja, algodão e canola entre outras. A Canola (Brassica napus) é uma espécie de oleaginosa que apresenta alto teor de lipídios, sendo largamente utilizada para esse fim em alguns países da Europa. Este trabalho teve como objetivo caracterizar os lipídios de sementes de canola cultivada em Tibagi, região dos Campos Gerais, visando uso na produção de biodiesel. Foram utilizadas sementes colhidas em lavoura comercial da safra de inverno de 2013. O sistema de extração de óleo utilizado foi extração contínua por solvente. As propriedades dos lipídios obtidos foram determinadas com relação à massa relativa de lipídios, massa específica e estabilidade oxidativa, que tiveram média de 370,4 g kg-1, 873 kg m-³, e 10,01 horas, respectivamente. A composição qualitativa de ácidos graxos foi avaliada pela Espectroscopia de Ressonância Magnética Nuclear de 1H. Pelas análises foi constatada a presença de ácidos Oleico (C18:1), Linoléico (C18:2) e Linolênico (C18:3).
The Day Nobody Died, War Photography, and the Violence of the Image
Authors: Innes Randy 
Published: December 2014

En juin 2008, les photographes Adam Broomberg et Oliver Chanarin étaient « embarqués » (« embedded ») au sein de l’armée britannique dans la province de Helmand en Afghanistan et ont réalisé The Day Nobody Died en réponse aux événements et aux violents incidents qui ont eu lieu pendant leur engagement. Les images de cette série ressemblent à des abstractions colorées et non à des photographies conventionnelles : alors que le papier photographique a été exposé, rien de reconnaissable n’apparaît dans les oeuvres. The Day Nobody Died est le résultat d’une négociation entre l’imaginaire créatif des artistes sur les conflits armés et les images assainies de la guerre qui découlent souvent, d’une part, des programmes d’art militaire subventionnés par l’État et, de l’autre, du journalisme d’entreprise. Les questions qu’adresse The Day Nobody Died portent tant sur le médium de la photographie en lui-même que sur la façon dont celui-ci représente la guerre. Cet essai soutient qu’en ne montrant pas la violence de la guerre de la manière photographique traditionnelle, cette série d’images entreprend un examen autoréflexif sur la pratique plus large de la photographie de guerre. Ce refus de The Day Nobody Died est une résistance à ce que Jean-Luc Nancy appelle la tendance propre à la violence de faire image en soi. Cet essai aborde les questions de violence, de guerre et d’image par le biais des travaux de Judith Butler, Jean-Luc Nancy et Geoffrey Batchen, parmi d’autres. L’auteur place The Day Nobody Died dans la tradition d’une culture visuelle critique qui est concernée par ses propres opérations et par les relations qu’elle ouvre sur le monde.
