  • Indigenous peoples and artificial intelligence

    Open Access•Mahendra Perera, Rajith Vidanaarachchi et al.•ARTICLE•Big Data & Society•2025

    This systematic literature review addresses the intersection of two rapidly evolving areas of knowledge and practice: Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) and artificial intelligence (AI). There is growing scholarly recognition of the rich and diverse nature of IKS, which are unique intergenerational understandings of worldly relations from an Indigenous standpoint. There is now a vast literature on the promise and pitfalls of AI. However, there is…

We compared the various descriptions of NDEs from a phenomenological perspective.…

  • A Cross-Cultural Study of Personality

    Open Access•Mahendra Perera, Sybil B G Eysenck•ARTICLE•Journal of Cross-Cultural…•1984•Cited by: 5•References: 10

    506 Sri Lankan men and 521 women completed the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ) translated into Sinhala. Factor comparisons were all high enough to claim that all dimensions measured by the EPQ are virtually identical in Sri Lanka and England. Several item changes were required to produce a viable scoring key, but even then, reliabilities were unacceptably low for psychoticism but adequately high for extroversion, neutroticism and the "lie…
