Difficulty suppressing visual distraction while dual tasking
Human beings must often perform multiple tasks concurrently or in rapid succession. Laboratory research has revealed striking limitations in the ability to dual task by asking participants to identify two target objects that are inserted into a rapid stream of irrelevant items. Under a variety of conditions, identification of the second target (T2) is impaired for a short period of time following presentation of the first target (T1). Several the…
Developing Strategic Lieutenants in the Canadian Army
This Canadian contribution to Parameters’ Strategic Lieutenant series shows how domestic context creates the conditions for professional military education reform to a greater extent than the global strategic context. The article assesses the junior officer education delivered by Canada’s military colleges and analyzes interviews with key stakeholders responsible for the formulation and implementation of reform at the military colleges
Backward masking interrupts spatial attention, slows downstream processing, and limits conscious perception
An ERP study on hostile attribution bias in aggressive and nonaggressive individuals
Hostile attribution bias (e.g., tendency to interpret the intention of others as hostile in ambiguous social contexts) has been associated with impulsive aggression in adults, but the results are mixed and the complete sequence of hostile inferential processes leading to aggression has not been investigated yet. The goal of this event-related brain potentials (ERPs) study was to track the neural activity associated with the violation of expectati…
The Breakup of Georgia
This article analyzes the status of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, as a result of the August war of 2008 between Russia and Georgia. We hypothesize that a new form of political entity is being shaped. This political creation is a laboratory of human and political geography. It remains a borderland, but which is neither prohibitive nor permissive; it is a “settlement fringe,” qualified by integration or abandonment. The first part of this paper discu…
A Solution to the Effect of Sample Size on Outlier Elimination
Results from a Monte Carlo study demonstrate how a non-recursive, a simple recursive, a modified recursive, and a hybrid outlier elimination procedure are influenced by population skew and sample size. All the procedures are based on computing a mean and a standard deviation from a sample in order to determine whether an observation is an outlier. Miller (1991) showed that the estimated mean produced by the simple non-recursive procedure can be a…
Prenatal and postnatal growth and allometry of stature, head circumference, and brain weight in québec children
A recently proposed four‐parameter generalization of the Gompertz curve (Jolicoeur et al., 1992a) is used to analyze chronological growth and allometry in the stature, head circumference, and brain weight of 101 male and 95 female fetuses and children autopsied at the Sainte‐Justine Hospital for children in Montréal. Although asymptotic stature cannot be determined accurately because the sample does not include adults, the data nevertheless sugge…
Asymptotic models for the longitudinal growth of human stature
Eight different asymptotic models, of which some are entirely new while others are revised versions, are compared with respect to their goodness of fit for the description of the longitudinal growth of stature in 27 healthy children from the French Auxological Survey. Some growth models are based on total age , defined as measured from the time of fertilization, and may be particularly suitable if prenatal data are to be included in the analysis …
