In an AT&T longitudinal study of managers, managerial success after sixteen years is predicted by “responsible power,” which is a combination of TAT-based measures of power motivation and responsibility. These results are consistent with previous theory and research on leadership, and are similar to those obtained with the leadership motive pattern, on the same sample, by McClelland and Boyatzi...

The massive growth of online social networking platforms in recent years has brought with it increasing privacy concerns. Rarely do long periods of time pass without some major privacy issue being brought to light. In this paper we present our study regarding media coverage of privacy issues in social networks, and the effects thereof. We gathered all news articles from over 30 German media sou...

Entada simplicata, formerly recognized as a variety of E. polystachya, is reinterpreted as a distinct legume species, based on consistent differences regarding their leaves (number of pairs and width of leaflets), and fruits (mesocarp presence, stipe and funiculus length). Illustrations and a distribution map are provided for E. simplicata, which is endemic to Roraima State, northern Amazonia, ...

We present a method for mapping the content of a text collection. This method uses linguistic analysis to relate terms extracted from the texts and clusters them into thematic topics mapped onto a 2D space. While the graphic display of domain topics is useful for several information-driven tasks, the focus of the paper is more on the comparison of journal ranking by productivity (number of publ...

Interestingly, the next sentence in the introduction tells us that ‘ [t]he thematic organization of this volume reflects the major characteristics of Greek’ (). Unfortunately, the thematic organization of the volume fails to be reflected in the arrangement of the chapters, which turns out to be alphabetical. It may very well be that in the editors’ minds there is some thematic organization in ...

This thematic collection includes three failed replications of the initial rotating screen experiments with 41⁄2and 51⁄2-month-old infants (Baillargeon, 1987a; Baillargeon, Spelke, & Wasserman, 1985). Readers should be aware that Lécuyer in France (using computer-animated events) and Slater in England are currently conducting replications of these same experiments, with highly promising results...

Learning Management Systems or e-Learning systems have been typically deployed to provide a means for the deposition of content which students access in a browse mode. Often a discussion space is provided to facilitate some course relevant communication. In this article we argue that if the e-Learning system can be adapted to match the educational design of particular courses, both students and...

scalability by replicating identical packets at routers. However, since its initial proposal the IP-multicast has not been widely enabled due to the slow pace of its deployment. Hence, the application-level multicast concept emerged to solve this deployment issue by shifting the multicast support from routers to end-systems. The article reviews the most important facts of the Application-Level ...
