Groupoid identities common to four abelian group operations
We exhibit a finite basis M for a certain variety V of medial groupoids. The setM consists of the medial law (xy)(zt) = (xz)(yt) and five other identities involving four variables. The variety V is generated by the four groupoids ±x± y on the integers. Since V is a very natural variety, proving it to be finitely based should be of interest. In an earlier paper, we made a conjecture which implie...
متن کاملHelping When It Costs You
The ability of the emotion gratitude to shape costly prosocial behavior was examined in three studies employing interpersonal emotion inductions and requests for assistance. Study 1 demonstrated that gratitude increases efforts to assist a benefactor evenwhen such efforts are costly (i.e., hedonically negative), and that this increase differs from the effects of a general positive affective sta...
متن کاملWhen Is Helping your Partner with Chronic Pain a Burden? The Relation Between Helping Motivation and Personal and Relational Functioning.
OBJECTIVE Self-determination theory (SDT) may be a useful framework to understand why chronic pain affects partners. SDT postulates that individuals can engage in helping behaviors for different motives varying from more autonomous or volitional motives to more controlled or pressured motives. This article examines the relationship between partners' type of motivation to help (i.e., autonomous ...
متن کاملInvesting in karma: when wanting promotes helping.
People often face outcomes of important events that are beyond their personal control, such as when they wait for an acceptance letter, job offer, or medical test results. We suggest that when wanting and uncertainty are high and personal control is lacking, people may be more likely to help others, as if they can encourage fate's favor by doing good deeds proactively. Four experiments support ...
متن کاملEvolution of helping and harming in viscous populations when group size varies.
Recent years have seen huge interest in understanding how demographic factors mediate the evolution of social behavior in viscous populations. Here we study the impact of variation in group size on the evolution of helping and harming behavior. Although variation in group size influences the degree of relatedness and the degree of competition between groupmates, we find that these effects often...
