Melioration Despite More Information
Situations that present individuals with a conflict between local and global gains often result in a behavioral pattern known as melioration — a preference for immediate rewards over higher long-term gains. Using a variant of a paradigm by Tunney & Shanks (2002), we explored the potential role of feedback as a means to reduce this bias. We hypothesized that frequent and informative feedback abo...
متن کاملContiguity Orders
This paper is devoted to the study of contiguity orders i.e. orders having a linear extension L such that all upper (or lower) cover sets are intervals of L. This new class is a strict generalization of both interval orders and N{free orders, and is linearly recognizable. It is proved that computing the number of contiguity extensions is #P{complete, and that the dimension of height one contigu...
متن کاملEvolution and Melioration of Software Management Processes
Evolution of software engineering practices consecrates a novel glide over on the progression of software from an elementary form to a more intricate and highly specialized one. As the current softwaredevelopment process faces conflicting demands and as the productivity remains quite unimpressive, there is a conspicuous need to search, cull down and adopt the best practices in the industry. Pra...
متن کاملPermutation Pseudographs And Contiguity
The space of permutation pseudographs is a probabilistic model of 2-regular pseudographs on n vertices, where a pseudograph is produced by choosing a permutation σ of {1, 2, . . . , n} uniformly at random and taking the n edges {i, σ(i)}. We prove several contiguity results involving permutation pseudographs (contiguity is a kind of asymptotic equivalence of sequences of probability spaces). Na...
