Can adolescents predict significant life events?
We examine whether adolescents' probability judgments for significant life events are predictive and accurate. We find significant correlations with actual experiences, reported on successive waves of a national survey. Mean probability judgments approximated observed outcome rates, or were optimistic, except that adolescents greatly overestimated their probability of dying prematurely.
متن کاملTeen expectations for significant life events.
Managing risks is an important part of growing up. Young people must decide whether to do things that they do not like (e.g., homework) in the hopes of getting things that they do (e.g., good jobs). They must also decide whether to avoid doing things that they do like (e.g., drinking heavily) in order to reduce the risk of outcomes that they do not (e.g., auto accidents). Making these decisions...
متن کاملSignificant Tornado Events Associated with Cell Mergers
Cell mergers have long been believed to play a role in tornado production, although the exact mechanisms are poorly understood. Several studies have noted the resultant thunderstorm intensification that occurs during a cell merger event (e.g., Cunning et al. 1982, Westcott and Kennedy 1989). Numerical simulations (e.g., Tao and Simpson 1989, Kogan and Shapiro 1996, Bluestein and Weisman 2000) h...
متن کاملGeoJabber: Finding Significant Analytic Events in Collaborative Visual Analysis Sessions
The integration of a peer-to-peer instant messaging system into visual analytic software allows automatic extraction of significant analytic events, such as inference drawing, causality determination, or hypothesis generation, during the course of an analysis. It does so by examining the textual communications between collaborators and marking those analytic events which are determined to be si...
متن کاملExtracting Key Entities and Significant Events from Online Daily News
To help people obtain the most important information daily in the shortest time, a novel framework is presented for simultaneous key entities extraction and significant events mining from daily web news. The technique is mainly based on modeling entities and news documents as weighted undirected bipartite graph, which consists of three steps. First, key entities are extracted by scoring all can...
