For a Banach algebra $fA$, we introduce ~$c.c(fA)$, the set of all $phiin fA^*$ such that $theta_phi:fAto  fA^*$ is a completely continuous operator, where $theta_phi$ is defined by $theta_phi(a)=acdotphi$~~ for all $ain fA$. We call $fA$, a completely continuous Banach algebra if $c.c(fA)=fA^*$. We give some examples of completely continuous Banach algebras and a sufficient condition for an o...

Against the background of a general theory pragmatics, reflections are formulated on central role metapragmatic awareness as specific manifestation salience, status processes meaning generation in language use relation to cognitive apparatus. First notions metalanguage and metapragmatics, used linguistics, discussed. Then metalinguistic phenomena presented awareness. Two ways which indicators f...

Behavioral dynamics of living species is characterized by additonal nonNewtonian properties which are not included in the laws of Newtonian or statistical mechanics. These properties follow from a priviledged ability of living systems to process information, namely, to generate a force in response to an external cue. In this paper “free-will-based” forces will be incorporated into the neurodyna...

This paper demonstrates the contribution a synthetic narrativediscursive approach can make to understanding biographical work within a research interview. Our focus is on biographical work as part of the ongoing, interactive process through which identities are taken up. This is of particular interest for people who, for example, are entering a new career and can be seen as “novices” in the sen...

The effect of automatic priming of behaviour by linguistic cues is well established. However, as yet these effects have not been directly demonstrated for eye movement responses. We investigated the effect of linguistic cues on eye movements using a modified version of the Stroop task in which a saccade was made to the location of a peripheral colour patch which matched the "ink" colour of a ce...

With the sudden onset of COVID-19 pandemic, teachers across globe felt need to respond overnight unprecedented adversity. Rapid adaptation unfamiliar modes teaching was required, leading face overwhelm on two fronts–adapting a global and in absence resources infrastructure. The lack physical classroom face-to-face interaction also impacted teachers’ sense purpose identity. Shifts teacher identi...

The dynamic interplay between reflexive and controlled determinants of behavior is one of the most general organizing principles of brain function. A powerful analogue of this interplay is seen in the antisaccade task, which pits reflexive and willed saccadic mechanisms against one another. Event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging of the human brain showed greater prestimulus prepara...
