A Universal Scheme for Transforming Binary Algorithms to Generate Random Bits from Loaded Dice [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper, we present a universal scheme for transforming an arbitrary algorithm for biased 2-face coins to generate random bits from the general source of an m-sided die, hence enabling the application of existing algorithms to general sources.

Linear Transformations for Randomness Extraction [PDF]
, 2012 Information-efficient approaches for extracting randomness from imperfect sources have been extensively studied, but simpler and faster ones are required in the high-speed applications of random number generation.

Form flows function: Learner‐centered game Re‐design in a STEM classroom
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Re‐designing games facilitates interest‐driven learning and immerses learners in systems thinking. However, there are limited studies exploring how the form and function of tabletop games influence learners' design decisions and learning experiences. To address this gap, we conducted a mixed‐methods study in a STEM classroom in western Canada.

Biased Probability Judgment: Representative Evidence for Pervasiveness and Economic Outcomes [PDF]
Many economic decisions involve a substantial amount of uncertainty, andtherefore crucially depend on how individuals process probabilistic information. Inthis paper, we investigate the capability for probability judgment in a representativesample of the

A Local Limit Theorem for a Biased Coin Design for Sequential Tests
The Annals of Statistics, 1985 In a clinical comparison of responses to two treatments, patients are admitted sequentially and given one of the two treatments. The allocation is determined randomly, to decrease the possibility of personal bias in the selection of subjects for the test.

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract As England embarks on its first comprehensive curriculum review in fifteen years, this paper offers critical insights from schools that sustained arts‐rich provision despite a policy landscape hostile to creative subjects. Drawing on data from the Researching Arts‐rich Primary Schools (RAPS) project—a mixed‐methods study of 76 arts‐rich ...

A neuro‐behavioural model of neophobia
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fear can be defined as the internal neurological state that releases a repertoire of behaviours an animal performs to reduce the effect of an aversive factor. Neophobia, the fear of novelty, is a fundamental behavioural trait observed across a wide range of species from arthropods to humans.
