    Open AccessKathryn Jackson, Kathryn L Jackson et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2023References: 3

    Higher and increasing loneliness was associated with lower CR in the face of neuropathology. These results suggest that some individuals are less resilient to the accumulation of neuropathology than others, and experiencing high/increasing loneliness is a key factor putting some at risk. Interventions aimed at optimizing cognitive function across older adults should include loneliness reduction as a potential area of focus

  • How Market Design Emerged from Game Theory

    Open AccessAlvin E Roth, Robert Wilson et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Economic…2019Cited by: 3References: 76

    We interview each other about how game theory and mechanism design evolved into practical market design. When we learned game theory, games were modeled either in terms of the strategies available to the players ("noncooperative games") or the outcomes attainable by coalitions ("cooperative games"), and these were viewed as models for different kinds of games. The model itself was viewed as a mathematical object that could be examined in its enti…

  • Authoritarian Environmental Governance

    Robert Wilson, Robert M WilsonARTICLEAnnals of the American…2019Cited by: 9References: 38

    For over a decade, nature–society geographers have focused on neoliberal and, more recently, postneoliberal environmental governance. Meanwhile, regimes in many nations have become less democratic and other countries, such as the United States, have elected leaders sympathetic to autocrats. Yet despite the spread of authoritarianism, nature–society geographers have as of yet devoted little attention to the subject, which hampers us as we confront…

    What does it mean to know a person? In his famous article, McAdams (1995) addresses this question from the perspective of personality psychology and concludes that personality traits are “the psychology of the stranger.” To really know someone, you need to know more than just how they typically think, feel, and behave on average (a common definition of traits). You need to know how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors change depending on their…

  • Moments of crisis

    Richard Tipping, Richard Bradley et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the Society of…2013Cited by: 1

    There is strong evidence for many key turning points in Scottish and north-west European prehistory – what we call moments of 'crisis' – to be associated with evidence for widespread and abrupt natural changes in climate. Association or coincidence are not cause, though, and the testing of specific hypotheses to establish this relation is needed. The timing of these moments of abrupt climatic change in Scottish prehistory is proposed in a review …

  • The Ugly Duckling

    Robert Wilson, Robert M WilsonARTICLEEnvironmental History2011

    The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the primary federal agency responsible for conserving wild animals in the United States. Yet it has attracted remarkably little attention from environmental historians. Through the regulations it enforces and the refuges it manages, the agency has had a profound impact on the nation's wildlife. The wildlife history of the United States, particularly in the twentieth century, is intertwined with the story of t…

    The reclamation of arid lands in the Western United States is a key topic studied by scholars of the region. The incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II occupies a place of similar prominence among those studying Asian American history. Yet neither group has carefully examined the relationship between federal reclamation and incarceration. Three of the ten concentration camps were built on U.S. Bureau of Reclamation irrigation pro…

  • Methods to account for spatial autocorrelation in the analysis of species distributional data

    Open AccessCarsten F Dormann, Jana M Mcpherson et al.ARTICLEEcography2007

    Species distributional or trait data based on range map (extent‐of‐occurrence) or atlas survey data often display spatial autocorrelation, i.e. locations close to each other exhibit more similar values than those further apart. If this pattern remains present in the residuals of a statistical model based on such data, one of the key assumptions of standard statistical analyses, that residuals are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d), i…

  • Boundaries of the Mind

    Open AccessRobert Wilson, Robert Anton WilsonBOOKBoundaries of the mind2001

    Where does the mind begin and end? Most philosophers and cognitive scientists take the view that the mind is bounded by the skull or skin of the individual. Robert Wilson, in this provocative and challenging 2004 book, provides the foundations for the view that the mind extends beyond the boundary of the individual. The approach adopted offers a unique blend of traditional philosophical analysis, cognitive science, and the history of psychology a…

  • Prophecy by the Dead in Dante and Lucan

    Robert Wilson, Robert R WilsonARTICLEItalian Studies1997

    In canto VI of the Inferno, in the third circle of Hell, Dante personaggio meets the glutton Ciacco, who delivers the first of the many post-eventum prophecies in the Commedia in response to the following question: ma dimmi, se tu sai, a che verranno li cittadin de la città partita; s'alcun v'è giusto; e dimmi la cagione per che l'ha tanta discordia assalita. (Inf., VI. 60–63)
