NEUROPHYSIOLOGY OF SITUATIVE ANXIETY: THEORETICAL ASPECT

A somewhat neglected aspect of insect neurophysiology.

Keir Pearson began his influential 1972 paper on cockroach walking with the statement that “a somewhat neglected aspect of insect neurophysiology is the nervous control of walking”. He then proceeded to outline a series of experiments that, together with his earlier work (Pearson and Iles, 1970), helped to shape a very large body of subsequent research that has shown how the central nervous sys...

Review on Theoretical Aspect of Nonlinear Optics

Nonlinear optical (NLO) materials play a major role in the field of photonics including optical information processing, sensor protector applications, data storage etc. Some organic compounds exhibit large NLO response, in many cases, orders of magnitude larger than widely known inorganic materials. The importance of amino acid in NLO application is due to the fact that all the amino acids, exc...

Situative Creativity 1 Running Head: Situative Creativity Situative Creativity: Larger Physical Spaces Facilitate Thinking of Novel Uses for Everyday Objects

People often use spatial metaphors (e.g., think “laterally”, “outside the box”) to describe exploration of the problem space during creative problem solving. In this paper, we probe the potential cognitive underpinnings of these spatial metaphors. Drawing on theories of situative cognition, semantic foraging theory, and environmental psychology, we formulate and test the hypothesis that larger ...

Theoretical properties of multimoves in metaheuristics in aspect of involutions

New properties of swap multimoves, applied successfully to neighborhood search forms of local search metaheuristics, are presented in this work. We prove the theorem which states that any permutation can be transformed into any other permutation executing at most two multimoves. Applying multimoves to metaheuristic algorithms allows us to obtain the best known results for the most difficult sch...
