Associations between psychological distress, early adverse experiences, and choice of avatars in an immersive virtual world
D Virtual worlds and the metaverse
Moving from a set of independent virtual worlds to an integrated network of 3D virtual worlds or Metaverse rests on progress in four areas: immersive realism, ubiquity of access and identity, interoperability, and scalability. For each area, the current status and needed developments in order to achieve a functional Metaverse are described. Factors that support the formation of a viable Metaverse, such as institutional and popular interest and on…
The politics book
Exploring more than 100 big ideas on topics as diverse as the rule of law, the extent of liberty, and the justification of warfare, [this book] takes you on a journey through the history of politics, from the influential theories of ancient Greece, Rome, and Asia to modern concepts voiced by today's brightest political thinkers."--Front jacket flap
Sexuality in the 3D Internet and its relationship to real-life sexuality
The emerging 3D Internet provides a new medium for cyber-sexuality and a context for conducting empirical research on sexuality in digital environments. This study investigated sexual behaviour and attitudes within Second Life, the most prominent 3D virtual world, and explored the relationship between sexuality in Second Life and sexuality in real life. The results indicate a wide range of common and experimental sexual practices in Second Life, …
Addiction to the 3-dimensional Internet
This study examined the prevalence of addiction to Second Life, the most prominent 3D virtual world, and found that approximately one-third of participants met criterion for Internet addiction or at-risk status on the internet addiction test (Young, K. (1998a). Caught in the net: How to recognize the signs of Internet Addiction and a winning strategy for recovery. New York, NY: John Wiley and Sons, Inc). Participants with higher levels of addicti…
Grid Connections, Batteries, and On-Board Generation
Well over 90 percent of all motorized transportation is fueled by products of petroleum, but the end of such widespread use of oil may be in sight. Among alternative fuels for land transportation, electricity appears to be the most promising, in part because it can be renewably produced and readily transmitted. The inadequacy and high cost of on-board storage of electrical energy present major challenges to widespread deployment of electric tract…
Hamilton, Ontario
Hamilton, Ontario is one of the first municipalities to consider the challenge posed by a potential fossil fuel crisis and its impact on the city's economic development and freight and passenger transportation. This article describes Hamilton's efforts, which culminated in a comprehensive report that assessed the likelihood of future energy constraints, and considered a broad range of land use, transportation and economic development issues. The …
Coping with Canadian federalism
Since the early 1960s, the only pan-Canadian association of municipalities has shown two decades of decline followed by two decades of growth. This paper analyses this decline and subsequent growth in the context of the changing position of municipalities with Canada, particularly those in Quebec. Examination of the association's recent history provides useful insights into how Canada's municipalities cope with Canadian federalism. It provides le…
When Strength Can't Last a Lifetime
PC or Not PC? Contemporary Challenges to Unpopular Research Findings
If a group of individuals were asked to describe the attributes of a social scientist, it is unlikely that the word courageous would be noted with any meaningful frequency. The typical image of the social scientist-cloistered in an ivory tower, collecting and analyzing data, periodically disseminating his or her results at professional conferences or in esoteric journals to a select group of interested colleagues--seems far removed from issues of…
Revisiting the Psychology of Men
During the past 20 years, in the context of the contemporary feminist movement, the study of gender issues has centered on the psychology of women. During this time, male behavior and dynamics have been considered primarily in terms of their relation to, or effect on, women's development. Recently, however, there has been renewed interest in considering the psychological issues of men as a distinct focus of study. The primary impetus for this ext…
Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy in Russia
In the summer of 1991, during the waning days of the Soviet empire, the first author served as a visiting professor of psychology at Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) State University. During this time, he collaborated with the second author on a study of the practice and profession of Russian psychotherapy. A series of interviews was conducted with Russian clinicians who were actively involved in outpatient psychotherapy. In these interviews, issue…

Sensitivity of Measures of Rat Performance under a Progressive Ratio Schedule to Daily Changes in Body Weight
Measures of breaking point for each of three rats under a progressive ratio schedule were found to vary closely with percentage changes from day to day in body weight, whereas measures of running rate and over-all rate were usually unrelated to changes in body weight
