Studies around the world revealed that children's performance is a significant source of parents’ self-worth. This phenomenon particularly salient among Chinese parents because emphasis on interdependent self-construal in face culture. With child-based worth, many feel compelled to use conditional regard minimize failure and maximize success. Yet, parental notorious for its undermining effects ...

Standard approaches for detecting malicious behaviors, e.g. monitoring network traffic, cannot address process-related threats in SCADA(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) systems. These threats take place when an attacker gains user access rights and performs actions which look legitimate, but which can disrupt the industrial process. We believe that it is possible to detect such behavio...

Undesirable outputs are often produced together with desirable. This joint production of good and bad outputs bring about a difficulty for productivity measurement. Here we introduce a directional distance function and use it as a component in a new productivity index. This index, as an empirical example shows, seems to solve the problem caused by the joint production of good and bad outputs. P...

Motivated by our ongoing efforts in the development of Refraction 2, a puzzle game targeting mathematics education, we realized that the quality of a puzzle is critically sensitive to the presence of alternative solutions with undesirable properties. Where, in our game, we seek a way to automatically synthesize puzzles that can only be solved if the player demonstrates specific concepts, concer...

Phytate (myo-inositol (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) hexakisphosphate), a naturally compound formed during maturation of plant seeds and grains is a common constituent of plant-derived foods. The major concern about the presence of phytate in the diet is its negative effect on mineral uptake. Minerals of concern in this regard would include Zn 2+, Fe 2+/3+, Ca 2+, Mg 2+, Mn 2+, and Cu 2+. Especially zinc a...
