Smartphones
Smartphones are often assumed to be obvious examples of cognitive extension. We offer reasons to reject this assessment, arguing that modern smartphones (and the apps installed on them) are not cognitive extensions after all. Modern smartphones are designed to manipulate the attention and behaviour of users in ways that further the interests of the corporations that built them. In this they are importantly different from resources typically assoc…
Digital Lovers and Jealousy
Technologies that stimulate human social and sexual impulses could affect users and societies. Here, we report on two experiments designed to test participant responses to (1) “virtual friend” chatbots that vary in capacity to engage users socially and emotionally (i.e., emotional sophistication) and (2) “digital lover” technologies—in the form of sex toys, sex robots, or virtual reality entities—that vary in capacity to physically stimulate user…
Structural breaks and GARCH models of exchange rate volatility
We examine the empirical significance of structural changes concerning generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models of exchange rate volatility using out‐of‐sample tests by replicating and carrying out robustness checks on the volatility forecasting study by Rapach and Strauss (Journal of Applied Econometrics, 2008; 23, 65–90). We employ the same econometric models but incorporate recent US dollar daily exchange rates …

Behind the makeup
Does wearing makeup benefit women by changing how they perceive themselves, and are the perceptions that others make of makeup wearers positive, or negative? In two pre‐registered experiments, we investigated the effects of makeup on women's self‐perceived traits, and others’ objectifying perceptions of them. In Experiment 1, 229 women imagined one of four scenarios (e.g., a romantic date). Half applied makeup for that scenario before rating thei…

High Mate Value Men Become More Accepting of Intimate Partner Abuse When Primed With Gender Equality
Although attempts to rectify intimate partner violence (IPV) predominantly target gender inequality as its socio-structural source, evolutionary insights cast doubt on the notion that gender equality unambiguously lessens IPV. Here we test whether the effect of gender equality on male-to-female IPV will depend upon men’s relative position in the sexual marketplace (i.e., their mate value). We primed 350 subjects (218 men) with one of three differ…

Krüger's Final Camp in Arctic Canada
On 3 July 1999, John England, Art Dyke, and undergraduate student Michelle Laurie were surveying raised marine shorelines on Axel Heiberg Island halfway between Cape Southwest and the mouth of Surprise Fiord. During this work, they discovered a site with objects that appeared to be "of considerable antiquity." ... Only the compass and the transit were collected for preservation and identification. Protruding through the surface sand was evidence …
Public Health Protecting Rural Communities From Terrorism
Given the number of Americans who live in rural areas and the unique challenges they face in the provision of health care services, special attention to planning for and responding to terrorist acts is warranted. After September 11, 2001, Florida developed a statewide, community‐based model that applies the public health principles of assessment, policy development, and assurance. This model can serve as a possible framework for other states and …

Reflections on the "World Revolution" of 1940
So controversial is the subject of thai address-"Reflections on the 'World Revolution' of 1940"-that a few words of justification in in order.

Swiss Referendum on the League of Nations
The Swiss referendum of May 16 on the League of Nations was the most important vote of its kind in the history of the republic. All other countries entering the league thus far have done so by parliamentary and executive action, that is, through purely representative means. Switzerland alone referred the question to the direct decision of her electorate. To Americans her action is of interest, not only beoause of its thoroughly democratic charact…

Swiss Treaty Initiative
Since the referendum on the League of Nations of May 16, 1920, the most important question to be dealt with by the Swiss people was the initiative on treaties, accepted January 30 of this year. The initiative was presented in the form of an amendment to Article 89 of the federal constitution (the referendum article), and may be translated as follows: “Treaties with foreign powers which are concluded without limit of time or for a period of more t…
Swiss Initiative Votes of June 11, 1922
On June 11 of this year three amendments to the Swiss federal constitution, proposed by initiative, were voted upon. The most important was one regarding naturalization. By Article 44, section 2, of the constitution of 1874, this subject was left to federal legislation. The proposed amendment attempted to place the more essential details of the process of naturalization in the constitution. Consent of the Bundesrat to the grant of communal and ca…
Swiss Initiative Vote of December 3, 1922

The amendment thus proposed provided for the levy of a tax or special assessment upon property holdings in excess of 80,000 francs, the rates on personal holdings rising from 8 per cent upon the first 50,000 francs to 60 per cent upon amounts over 3,000,000 francs. …
