The current article introduces a new behavioral method-the voodoo doll task (VDT)-that offers a reliable and valid trait and state measure of aggressive inclinations across settings and relationship contexts.

متن کاملModel Checking the Inconsistency and Circularity in Rule-Based Expert Systems
In the past several years, various techniques were proposed to analyze various types of structural errors, such as inconsistency (conflict rules), and circularity (circular depending rules), of rule-based systems. Model checking is a technique for the verification of temporal logic specifications in state transition systems. In this paper, we model the rule-based systems as finite state transit...

Circularity arises in regulation if the value of a company’s assets used to set prices is itself determined by future earning capacity. The view that it is not possible to determine values and prices in these circumstances has become well established in the literature. In this paper we formalise this precise circularity result. We then show that if there is a possibility of future review and th...
