Correction to Scholten, Read, and Sanborn (2016)

Reports an error in "Cumulative weighing of time in intertemporal tradeoffs" by Marc Scholten, Daniel Read and Adam Sanborn (Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2016[Sep], Vol 145[9], 1177-1205). In the article, there was an error in Table 1. The preference for faster accumulation read {1,000, 0, 1,000} > {0, 500, 0}. It should read {0, 1,000, 0} > {500, 0, 500}. In addition, in the se...

The hydrodynamics of dolphin drafting

BACKGROUND Drafting in cetaceans is defined as the transfer of forces between individuals without actual physical contact between them. This behavior has long been surmised to explain how young dolphin calves keep up with their rapidly moving mothers. It has recently been observed that a significant number of calves become permanently separated from their mothers during chases by tuna vessels. ...

Drafting with Sequences

The numbers on the inner circle are those that exist in the modular arithmetic. If we continue beyond 7, as shown in the outer ring, the numbers wrap around the wheel. Numbers on the same spoke are equivalent. For example, 0 and 8 are equivalent, 1 and 9 are equivalent, 2 and 10 are equivalent, and so on. Another way to look at it is that when 9 is introduced into modular arithmetic with 8 shaf...

the Unrealized Potential of Computer-Aided Drafting

A B S T R A C T Despite huge investments by vendors and users, CAD productivity remains disappointing. Our analysis of realworld CAD usage shows that even after many years of experience, users tend to use suboptimal strategies to perform complex CAD tasks. Additionally, some of these strategies have a marked resemblance to manual drafting techniques. Although this phenomenon has been previously...
