Are Sick Individuals Weak Competitors? Competitive Ability of Snails Parasitized by a Gigantism-Inducing Trematode
Parasitized individuals are often expected to be poor competitors because they are weakened by infections. Many trematode species, however, although extensively exploiting their mollusc hosts, also induce gigantism (increased host size) by diverting host resources towards growth instead of reproduction. In such systems, alternatively to reduced competitive ability due to negative effects of par...
متن کاملProximity Rank Join
We introduce the proximity rank join problem, where weare given a set of relations whose tuples are equipped witha score and a real-valued feature vector. Given a targetfeature vector, the goal is to return the K combinations oftuples with high scores that are as close as possible to thetarget and to each other, according to some notion of dis-tance. The setting closely ...
متن کاملInequality and Relative Ability Beliefs Inequality and Relative Ability Beliefs *
In this study I present experimental evidence of a novel channel yielding inequality persistence. In an initial experiment, results suggest that individuals respond to salient inequality by adjusting their performance beliefs to justify the inequality. Subsequent experiments reveal: i) that it is beliefs about relative ability—an ostensibly stable trait— rather than effort provision that respon...
متن کاملInequality and Relative Ability Beliefs∗
In this study I construct a novel explanation for inequality persistence and then present supporting evidence from two separate experiments. Building on Just World Beliefs research (Lerner, 1965), I hypothesize that individuals tend to believe they merit the unequal treatment they experience. Because a component of merit is ability, being disadvantaged (advantaged) by inequality may undermine (...
متن کاملA Proximity measures for rank join
We introduce the proximity rank join problem, where we are given a set of relations whose tuples are equipped with a score and a real-valued feature vector. Given a target feature vector, the goal is to return the K combinations of tuples with high scores that are as close as possible to the target and to each other, according to some notion of distance or dissimilarity. The setting closely res...
