I describe two studies that were designed to illustrate the potential applicability of laboratory-derived ESP effects in trying to predict events of practical consequence in the “real world.” Both studies attempt to predict the behavior of sets of fi nancial indices over a designated week in the future. The studies followed up on earlier work on the prediction of scoring direction and scoring e...

Th is paper investigates the role of information technology in fi nancial reporting as well as the relationship between using information technology and its impact on the quality of fi nancial reporting. To identify the impact of information technology on quality of fi nancial reporting, a questionnaire was designed and developed. In order to test the hypotheses, T-Test, ANOVA and Duncan’s Test...

The level 1 highest weight modules of the quantum affine algebra Uq(ŝln) can be described as spaces of certain semi-infinite wedges. Using a q-antisymmetrization procedure, these semi-infinite wedges can be realized inside an infinite tensor product of evaluation modules. This realization gives rise to simple descriptions of vertex operators and (up to a scalar function) their compositions. 1 R...
