The Long and Winding Road to Uncertainty: The Link between Spatial Distance and Feelings of Uncertainty
Construal Level Theory (CLT) [1] defines psychological distance as any object, event, or person that cannot be experienced by the self in the here and now. The goal of the present research was to demonstrate that feelings of uncertainty are closely linked to the concept of psychological distance. Two experiments tested the assumption that spatial distance and uncertainty are bidirectionally rel...
متن کاملRelations between Renyi Distance and Fisher Information
In this paper, we first show that Renyi distance between any member of a parametric family and its perturbations, is proportional to its Fisher information. We, then, prove some relations between the Renyi distance of two distributions and the Fisher information of their exponentially twisted family of densities. Finally, we show that the partial ordering of families induced by Renyi dis...
متن کاملDistance and Friendship: A Distance-Based Model for Link Prediction in Social Networks
With the emerging of location-based social networks, study on the relationship between human mobility and social relationships becomes quantitatively achievable. Understanding it correctly could result in appealing applications, such as targeted advertising and friends recommendation. In this paper, we focus on mining users’ relationship based on their mobility information. More specifically, w...
متن کاملThe Spatial and Temporal Underpinnings of Social Distance
To what extent do people anchor thoughts about social relationships in terms of space and time? Three studies used drawing and estimation tasks to further explore the conceptual structure of “social” distance. In the three studies, participants read short narratives, drew what they imagined happening during the narrative, then estimated both time and distance. In general, results suggest that t...
متن کاملOn Rectilinear Link Distance
Given a simple polygon P without holes all of whose edges are axis-parallel, a rectilinear path in P is a path that consists of axis-parallel segments only and does not cross any edge of P. The length of such a path is defined as the number of segments it consists of and the rectilinear link distance between two points in P is defined as the length of the shortest path connecting the two points...
