The Long-Term Habituation Of Sexual Arousal In Human Males: A Crossover Design, Joseph J. Plaud, George A. Gaither, Susan Amato Henderson, Mary K. Devitt

The Psychological Record

Short-term and long-term habituation of sexual arousal was investigated in a crossover design. Nine subjects completed six sessions semiweekly for 3 consecutive weeks. Sessions were scheduled at least 2 days but not more than 4 days apart. Each session consisted of 15 stimulus periods and 15 detumescence periods. Sexually explicit audio stimuli were administered. There were two conditions in the crossover design, which allowed each participant to serve as his own control. During one half of the sessions subjects were exposed to 15 different scripts (varied condition); during the remaining sessions subjects were exposed to the same script 45 times …

The Perception And Attribution Of Facial Asymmetry In Normal Adults, Rotem Kowner

The Psychological Record

This study examined the effect of a target person’s facial asymmetry on observers’ attributions of emotion and personality, as well as appearance judgment. The first experiment investigated attributions to resting asymmetrical faces of 20 normal healthy young adults versus their symmetrical hemifacial composites. The second experiment used the same procedure with 24 expressive faces. The findings of no significant differences between the attributions to asymmetrical faces and their symmetrical hemifacial composites in both studies are explained by the very limited degree of asymmetry seen on young adults’ faces. Moreover, it is suggested that observers are not tuned to notice mild …

The Relationship Between Provocation Frequency And Human Aggresive Responding, Don R. Cherek, Donald M. Dougherty

The Psychological Record

Six adults participated in an experiment designed to study the effects of provocation frequency, that is, point subtractions, on free-operant aggressive responding. Subjects were given two response options on separate buttons labeled “A” and “B.” Pressing Button A was maintained by a fixed-ratio 100 schedule of point presentation. A counter was incremented when a point was earned, and these points were later exchanged for money (one point = 10 cents). Subjects were instructed that the completion of each fixed-ratio 10 on Button B subtracted a point from a second subject (fictitious) also responding to accumulate money. Button B responses were …

Are Dutch Patients Willing To Be Seen By A Physician Assistant Instead Of A Medical Doctor?, Luppo Kuilman, Roos M.B. Nieweg, Cees P. Van Der Schans, Jaap H. Strijbos, Roderick S. Hooker

Prevention and Community Health Faculty Publications

Background

The employment of physician assistants (PAs) is a strategy to improve access to care. Since the new millennium, a handful of countries have turned to PAs as a means to bridge the growing gap between the supply and demand of medical services. However, little is known about this new workforce entity from the patient’s perspective. The objective of this study was to assess the willingness of Dutch patients to be treated by a PA or a medical doctor (MD) under various time constraints and semi-urgent medical scenarios.

Methods

A total of 450 Dutch adults were recruited to act as …

From Titanic To Costa Concordia — A Century Of Lessons Not Learned, Jens-Uwe Schröder-Hinrichs, Erik Hollnagel, Michael Baldauf

Journal Publications

The recent foundering of the Costa Concordia in January 2012 demonstrated

that accidents can occur even with ships that are considered masterpieces of

modern technology and despite more than 100 years of regulatory and technological

progress in maritime safety. The purpose of this paper is, however, not to speculate

about the concrete causes of the Costa Concordia accident, but rather to consider

some human and organizational factors that were present in the Costa Concordia

accident as well as in the foundering of the Titanic a century ago, and which can be

found in many other maritime accidents over the years. …

On The Respectful Use Of Animals, Jon Garthoff

Between the Species

In his essay “The Integration of the Ethic of the Respectful Use of Animals into the Law”, David Favre begins to articulate a new framework for understanding the legal status of nonhuman animals. The present essay supports the broad contours of Favre’s framework, but raises challenges for some of the framework’s elements. The first half questions Favre’s claim that possession of DNA and the capacity for life underlie the need for a more robust conception of animal legal standing. The second half questions Favre’s prior proposal that animals be deemed persons under law and questions his pragmatic suggestion that judges …
