Positive temporal dependence of the biological clock implies hyperbolic discounting

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2011
Temporal preferences of animals and humans often exhibit inconsistencies, whereby an earlier, smaller reward may be preferred when it occurs immediately but not when it is delayed.

Time spent close to a sexual partner as a measure of female mate preference in a sex-role-reversed population of the blenny Salaria pavo (Risso) (Pisces: Blenniidae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa ethologica, 2003
In most species females do not exhibit con- spicuous sexual behaviours and female mate preferences are often measured by means of the time spent close to males. In spite of its widespread use, in only a few studies has this measure been validated as a reliable indicator of female mate preference.

Effects of subchronic phencyclidine (PCP) treatment on social behaviors, and operant discrimination and reversal learning in C57BL/6J mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2009
Subchronic treatment with the psychotomimetic phencyclidine (PCP) has been proposed as a rodent model of the negative and cognitive/executive symptoms of schizophrenia.

Reverse Analysis of Preferred Departure Time of Air Passengers

open access: yesINFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING REVIEW, 2008
In this paper, we calculated preferred departure time of air passengers by reverse analysis from actual fright schedule of domestic air service. In addition, we analyzed how a flight schedule affects on the air-rail choice rate. Specifically, we introduced a concept of average schedule cost in order to express a service level of a fright schedule. Next,

The Effect of Left-Right Reversal on Film: Watching Kurosawa Reversed

open access: yesi-Perception, 2011
The mirror reversal of an image is subtly different from the original. Often such change goes unnoticed in pictures, although it can affect preference. For the first time we studied the effect of mirror reversal of feature films.

Reversal and magnitude effects in long-term time preferences: Results from a field experiment

open access: yesEconomics Letters, 2013
We use a multiple price list approach with real payments to elicit long-term time preferences on a sample of French farmers. Elicited individual discount rates vary with the time delay, which supports the existence of a reversal effect in long-term time preferences, and increase with rewards, which contradicts the usual magnitude effect finding.

Ethical Adversaries: Towards Mitigating Unfairness with Adversarial Machine Learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Machine learning is being integrated into a growing number of critical systems with far-reaching impacts on society. Unexpected behaviour and unfair decision processes are coming under increasing scrutiny due to this widespread use and its theoretical ...

A Female Color Ornament Honestly Signals Fecundity

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
In many species, particularly in ectothermic vertebrates, not only males but also females show bright body colorations. In Alpine newts, Ichthyosaura alpestris, both sexes have colorful orange bellies. This coloration varies in redness (yellowish to dark
