Who in the world is trying to change their personality traits? : volitional personality change among college students in 56 countries [PDF]
Recent research conducted largely in the US suggests that most people would like to change one or more of their personality traits. Yet almost no research has investigated the degree to which and in what ways volitional personality change (VPC), or ...

Loss of Secreted Frizzled-Related Protein 4 Correlates with an Aggressive Phenotype and Predicts Poor Outcome in Ovarian Cancer Patients [PDF]
Background: Activation of the Wnt signaling pathway is implicated in aberrant cellular proliferation in various cancers. In 40% of endometrioid ovarian cancers, constitutive activation of the pathway is due to oncogenic mutations in b-catenin or other ...

Speech produced in noise: Relationship between listening difficulty and acoustic and durational parameters. [PDF]
Conversational speech produced in noise can be characterised by increases in intelligibility relative to such speech produced in quiet. Listening difficulty (LD) is a metric that can be used to evaluate speech transmission performance more sensitively ...

Time-dispersive behavior as a feature of critical-contrast media [PDF]
Motivated by the urgent need to attribute a rigorous mathematical meaning to the term "metamaterial", we propose a novel approach to the homogenisation of critical-contrast composites.

A fully-coupled framework for solving Cahn-Hilliard Navier-Stokes equations: Second-order, energy-stable numerical methods on adaptive octree based meshes [PDF]
We present a fully-coupled, implicit-in-time framework for solving a thermodynamically-consistent Cahn-Hilliard Navier-Stokes system that models two-phase flows. In this work, we extend the block iterative method presented in Khanwale et al.
