Dual- Process Theories: Questions and Outstanding Issues

The goal of this paper is to offer a critical analysis of the contribution of Dual Process Theories (DPT) to psychological theory. A key advantage of DPT is that they offer an integrated framework for generalising across specific tasks and situations; this represents a clear advantage over the traditional approaches that have focussed on task-and process-specific explanations. At the same time,...

The Halo Lithium Plateau: Outstanding Issues

We examine outstanding issues in the analysis and interpretation of the halo Li plateau. We show that the majority of very Li-poor halo Li-plateau stars (5 out of 8) have high projected rotation velocities vsini between 4.7 and 10.4 km s. Such stars have very different evolutionary histories to Li-normal plateau stars, and hence cannot be included in studies of Li depletion by normal halo dwarf...

Outstanding Issues in Solar Dynamo Theory

The magnetic activity of the Sun, as manifested in the sunspot cycle, originates deep within its convection zone through a dynamo mechanism which involves non-trivial interactions between the plasma and magnetic field in the solar interior. Recent advances in magnetohydrodynamic dynamo theory have led us closer towards a better understanding of the physics of the solar magnetic cycle. In conjun...

Polio control after certification: major issues outstanding.

Now that the global eradication of wild poliovirus is almost within sight, planning for the post-certification era is becoming a priority issue. It is agreed that a stockpile of appropriate polio vaccines will need to be established, and a surveillance and response capacity will need to be maintained, in order to protect the world against any possible future outbreaks attributable either to the...
