Autism and other pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs) are a phenomenologically related set of neuropsychiatric disorders. These conditions are characterized by patterns of both delay and deviance in multiple areas of development; typically their onset is in the first months of life (APA, 1994; Volkmar & Klin, 2005). Although often associated with some degree of mental retardation, the patte...

Two objectives guide this study: first, to examine whether organizational deviance is a consequence of workplace bullying, and second, investigate possible moderating effect gratitude on the relationship between bullying deviance. Variables were tapped using Negative Acts Questionnaire, Organisational Deviance Measure, Gratitude Questionnaire (GQ6). This study uses correlation-causal design; da...

The capacity of the human brain to detect deviance in the acoustic environment pre-attentively is reflected in a brain event-related potential (ERP), mismatch negativity (MMN). MMN is observed in response to the presentation of rare oddball sounds that deviate from an otherwise regular pattern of frequent background standard sounds. While the primate and cat auditory cortex (AC) exhibit MMN-lik...

Purpose Antecedents and outcomes of workplace deviance have been studied over the past few decades but there is still a lack research from an organizational climate, witness cultural point view. Theoretical considerations for present are based on social cognitive theory perspective where authors expect employees's involvement in destructive would depend their climate perception, behavior orient...

Deviant stimuli, violating regularities in a sensory environment, elicit the mismatch negativity (MMN), largely described in the Event-Related Potential literature. While it is widely accepted that the MMN reflects more than basic change detection, a comprehensive description of mental processes modulating this response is still lacking. Within the framework of predictive coding, deviance proce...
