Some culture is hiding in plain sight in research on child development
British Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Child development is cultural in nature, yet a divide persists between a (cross‐)cultural developmental science niche alongside a seemingly a‐cultural mainstream. In particular, childhood research relying on convenience sampling in often Western, post‐industrial (i.e., WEIRD) societies rarely ventures into issues of culture and context ...

Duality theory and Abstract Algebraic Logic
, 2013 [eng] In this thesis we present the results of our research on duality theory for non-classical logics under the point of view of Abstract Algebraic Logic (AAL). Firstly, we propose an abstract Spectral-like duality and an abstract Priestley-style duality for every filter distributive finitary congruential logic with theorems.

Social and emotional pathways to shame reduction: An RCT with preservice teachers
British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Shame is an unpleasant, activating emotion that has been shown to undermine learners' motivation and achievement and identity development in mathematics education. Recent studies have implemented positive psychology interventions (PPIs) to reduce preservice teachers' shame in mathematics, with promising quantitative outcomes ...

Welcome to the jangle (fallacy): The case of statistics and mathematics anxieties
British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Statistics‐related anxiety is a common barrier to learning in higher education, particularly for psychology and other non‐specialist students. High prevalence rates are concerning because statistical literacy is integral to academic success, employability and informed citizenship.

An extension of the basic local independence model to multiple observed classifications
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract The basic local independence model (BLIM) is appropriate in situations where populations do not differ in the probabilities of the knowledge states and the probabilities of careless errors and lucky guesses of the items. In some situations, this is not the case. This work introduces the multiple observed classification local independence model

Progressively Projected Newton's Method
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Newton's Method is widely used to find the solution of complex non‐linear simulation problems. To guarantee a descent direction, it is common practice to clamp the negative eigenvalues of each element Hessian prior to assembly—a strategy known as Projected Newton (PN)—but this perturbation often hinders convergence.

Survey on Visualization of Information Diffusion over Networks
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Information Diffusion (ID) describes how a value (e.g., a pathogen, a rumor, a packet) spreads through an underlying “medium” network of elements (e.g., a social or computer network). Understanding the information diffusion process is essential to predicting trends, controlling misinformation, and enhancing decision‐making as well as ...

Categorical Abstract Algebraic Logic: Equivalential π-Institutions
The Australasian Journal of Logic, 2008 The theory of equivalential deductive systems, as introduced by Prucnal and Wroński and further developed by Czelakowski, is abstracted to cover the case of logical systems formalized as π-Institutions. More precisely, the notion of an N-equivalence system for a given π-Institutions is introduced.

Building a Potemkin village in occupied China: Japan's wartime system of linked trade, 1939–43
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract The paper discusses the novel but little‐known exchange rate system of Japanese‐occupied North China during the Second Sino‐Japanese War, in which exporters were given the right to import in the form of a piece of yellow paper, which could be sold in the secondary market.

Rational Expectations Fools' Bubbles
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We develop a rational, Walrasian model of speculative bubbles inspired by the Kindleberger–Minsky view, which describes bubbles as wave‐like market processes. Touched off by an initial shock, price booms are initially self‐reinforcing but become self‐destructive later when prices surpass fundamental value.
