Averting economic collapse and the solipsism bias
We study the behavior of experimental subjects who have to make a sequence of risky investment decisions in the presence of network externalities. Subjects follow a simple heuristic—investing after positive experiences and reducing their propensity to invest after a failure. This result contrasts with the theoretical findings of Jeitschko and Taylor [Jeitschko, T.D., Taylor, C., 2001. Local dis...
متن کاملThe Measurement Problem: Decoherence and Convivial Solipsism
The problem of measurement is often considered as an inconsistency inside the quantum formalism. Many attempts to solve (or to dissolve) it have been made since the inception of quantum mechanics. The form of these attempts depends on the philosophical position that their authors endorse. I will review some of them and analyze their relevance. The phenomenon of decoherence is often presented as...
متن کاملPerceptual filling-in: a parametric study
We studied perceptual filling-in during maintained peripheral viewing of a uniform gray or red figure presented on a large textured background. Changes in the figure's size, shape, and eccentricity caused variations in the time required for filling-in that could be predicted from the size of its cortical projection within early visual areas. The data suggest that the time which elapsed before t...
متن کاملRomanian palatalized consonants: a perceptual study
Most consonants in the Romanian inventory are claimed to have a surface palatalized counterpart carrying functional meaning; it is not clear, however, whether the set of palatalized consonants is represented underlyingly. The present study investigated the perception of palatalized consonants based on two experiments. It was found that native speakers can discriminate between plain and palatali...
متن کاملThe Speaker's Age: A Perceptual Study
The results of this experimental research on Italian language show that it is possible to infer a speaker’s age on a perceptual basis with good approximation. The procedure involves a series of comparative tests where the unknown voice is compared to voices belonging to different age ranges. Then, on the basis of the answers, listeners are asked to indicate the age of the unknown voice in a red...
