Neurocognitive variation in smoking behavior and withdrawal: genetic and affective moderators [PDF]
A burgeoning literature suggests that attentional factors are associated with smoking behavior (e.g. direct nicotine effects and smoking withdrawal). This study examined differences in attentional processing between nonsmokers, satiated smokers and overnight nicotine‐deprived smokers by comparing the amplitude of the P300 (P3) component of the event ...

Dopaminergic genetic variation moderates the effect of nicotine on cigarette reward [PDF]
Cigarette smoking is influenced by nicotine’s effects on dopaminergic activity in the mesocorticolimbic pathway. This activity appears to be moderated by genetic variation, specifically a variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism in the third exon of the dopamine receptor gene (DRD4).We examined whether this polymorphism along with three DRD4 ...

Today's work experience: Precursors of both how I feel and how Ithink about my job? [PDF]
Antecedents of affective versus cognitive components of daily job satisfaction were compared. According to the affective events theory, the affective component should relate more strongly to state affect and affective work experiences than the cognitive ...

Regional Variation: Only Moderately Interesting [PDF]
In most aspects of life in these United States, diversity is viewed as a strength that we champion. It seems that only in the medical field is regional diversity regarded with a suspicious attitude. The underlying assumption appears to be that regional variation in medical care and especially in procedure utilization is due solely or mostly to ...

Infant development in family context: Call for a genetically informed approach
We call for a genetically informed approach in the examination of infant social and emotional development in family context. We recommend that scholars conceptualize family functioning as occurring on three unique levels: the parent-child dyad, the inter-

Neutronic simulation of a CANDU-6 reactor with heavy water-based nanofluid coolant [PDF]
In recent years, extended studies are developed for investigation the effects of using nanofluids in NPP as coolant. CANDU-6 reactors have the potential to use nanofluid coolants because in these reactors, the moderator system is fully ...

Unsteady Simulation of a Full-Scale CANDU-6 Moderator with OpenFOAM
Three-dimensional moderator flow in the calandria tank of CANDU-6 pressurized heavy water reactor (PHWR) is computed with Open Field Operation and Manipulation (OpenFOAM), an open-source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code.
