Running head: PURE WELLNESS: YOUR UNIQUE PATH TO BETTER HEALTH Pure Wellness: Your Unique Path to Better Health

Research shows the desire to be healthy is significant among Americans, yet few report regular engagement in healthy dietary and lifestyle practices. There is a gap between the desire to be healthy and the comprehension of how to put health-promoting practices in place. This review analyzes and synthesizes current scientific research on four basic practices: (1) The Elimination Diet (ED), (2) W...

Finding your way: The cognitive science of navigation

One overarching research question in cognitive science concerns how information from perception and memory is processed and integrated in order to achieve robust, efficient, and adaptive behaviour in space, as is necessary in wayfinding. Examining this integration is quite complicated, entailing an understanding of learning strategies, spatial memory representations of static and dynamic relati...

Path-Finding in Networks

Algorithms that find connections between concepts in semantic networks are inherently inefficient due to their dependence on piecemeal representation of potential paths. A method of reorganizing a link-based network into a path-based representation is argued to allow more efficient search techniques. A path-based representation is presented in terms of the knowledge representation language Conc...

Finding your theme

You might think that finding a research theme is simply a matter of starting with a question that interests you, turning it into a concrete problem and then planning and carrying out experiments to solve the problem. It is, but the really tricky part is finding a theme that’s suited to you personally. For example, if you’re thinking of using an experimental organism, you’d better make sure you’...
