From what might have been to what must have been: counterfactual thinking creates meaning.
Four experiments explored whether 2 uniquely human characteristics-counterfactual thinking (imagining alternatives to the past) and the fundamental drive to create meaning in life-are causally related. Rather than implying a random quality to life, the authors hypothesized and found that counterfactual thinking heightens the meaningfulness of key life experiences. Reflecting on alternative path...
متن کاملStars ’ - Have They Been Discovered ?
Recently there is a suggestion about the star RXJ1856.5−3754, being a possible candidate for quark star. While from the estimates of the radiation radius, given by the authors, it does not seem to fit with any of the known models for such stars, the mass radius diagram admits the possibility of this being a quark star of mass M ⊙ < M < 1.4M ⊙ , provided the radius mentioned is the actual radius...
متن کاملStrange Stars ’ - have they been discovered ?
Recently there have been controversial claims about the nature of the isolated compact star RXJ1856.5−3754, with one group claiming it to be a strange star (Drake et al., 2002) while the other asserting it to be a normal neutron star (Walter & Lattimer, 2002). The controversy arises mainly due to the distance estimate, which in turn is used to resolve the measured angular diameter, and thus the...
متن کاملAsking photons where they have been.
We present surprising experimental evidence regarding the past of photons passing through an interferometer. The information about the positions through which the photons pass in the interferometer is retrieved from modulations of the detected signal at the vibration frequencies of mirrors the photons bounce off. From the analysis we conclude that the past of the photons is not represented by c...
متن کاملHot and Cold Housing Markets: International Evidence
This paper examines the experience of fourteen developed countries for which there are about thirty years of quarterly inflation-adjusted housing price data. Price dynamics is modeled as a combination of a country-specific component and a cyclical component. The cyclical component is a two-state Markov switching process with parameters common to all countries. We find that the latent state vari...
