Conceptualizing the evolving nature of computational propaganda
Since the 2016 U.S. election and the U.K. Brexit campaign, computational propaganda has become an important research topic in communication, political and social science. Recently, it has become clearer that computational propaganda doesn’t start from a clean slate and is not precisely bound to single issues or campaigns. Instead, computational propaganda needs to be looked at as a complex phenomenon in a global environment of co-evolving issues …

The social experience of volunteering for young adult volunteers
Volunteering is known to benefit not only recipients of services but also the volunteers themselves. Such benefits are especially important in volunteering young adults, who are undergoing a period of rapid transition and psychosocial development. Whilst the impact of volunteering is reasonably well studied in student groups, there is relatively little research on young adult volunteers outside the ‘student as volunteer’ context, despite the fact…
A Prospect Theory Explanation of the Disposition to Trade Losing Investments for Less Than Market Price
Investors have a proven general reluctance to realize losses. The theory of "mental accounting" suggests that losses are easier to accept when mentally integrated with either preceding losses or with compensatory gains. Mental integration is made easier when a failed asset is exchanged against a new, apparently profitable, acquisition. The alternative is to sell the existing asset on the open market before re-investing the proceeds as desired. Th…
The Chronology of Yaxuna
Research at the ancient Maya city of Yaxuna, located in the heart of the Yucatan Peninsula, has provided sufficient data to suggest a preliminary chronological framework for the cultural development of this large polity. Primary ceramic and stratigraphie data are presented to support a five-phase scheme of cultural history, encompassing the Middle Formative through Postclassic periods (500b.c.–a.d.1250). In addition to chronological significance,…
A Paradox of Diminishing Expectations and Increasing Value for Money
Investments made in the form of a succession of nonrefundable cash payments, with payoff at completion and no obligation at any stage to complete, have the characteristic of becoming more attractive as more payments are made. This is on the condition that any decline in the investor's expectations occurs at a slower rate than the reduction between installments in the cost-to-complete. Decision makers involved in such investments have rational gro…
Interpreting Statistical Insignificance
It is often stated that results which are not statistically significant at conventional levels (5% is the common benchmark) represent neither evidence against the null hypothesis nor for it. That is, tests of significance have no logical facility to support the hypothesis tested. This logical standpoint appears in the writings of R. A. Fisher and is endorsed in various textbooks. Notwithstanding the position taken by Fisher (who appears later to …
