Construal level theory and risky decision making following near-miss events
, 2020 ©2020. Journal of Behavioral Decision Making. Near-miss events, which occur when failure is avoided by chance, can lead to subsequent risky decisions due to base-rate neglect.

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

The autism spectrum as a source of cognitive and cultural diversity
, 2011 Individual differences in perception and in social cognition are products of both biology and cultural experience. Many of the same differences that typify autism when they occur in extremes also underlie normal human cognitive variation when they occur ...

The Learning Function of Evaluation: A Conceptual Framing
New Directions for Evaluation, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this article, we set out a conceptual overview of what we call learning in the evaluation ecosystem to depict the interplay between external influences, organizational and community factors, and learning levers (e.g. capacity building, systems thinking).

Construal Level Theory and Virtual Teams: The Effect of Virtuality on Psychological Distance, Construal Level, and Causal Attributions [PDF]
, 2018 Many different theories have been used to predict the effects different facets of virtuality can have on teams. Construal Level Theory (CLT) is more parsimonious in that it provides one mechanism for various facets.

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

E-Learning System Implementation: Implications from the Construal Level Theory
, 2013 Understanding the factors that affect users’ acceptance of e-learning systems is critical for the success of adopting an e-learning system. Drawing upon the Construal Level Theory and the Technology Acceptance Model, we propose that the users’ construal ...

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

Construal level theory and mathematics education
, 2013 Includes bibliographical references.A common complaint of mathematics students is that mathematics is highly abstract. Students often find it difficult to attach meaning to the mathematical concepts they are expected to master.
