This paper investigates the role of moral norms as a social institution in anonymous interactions trust games. We argue that morality functions norm and therefore comes with specific punishments rewards. Since these incentives are confounded material game, an augmented version game is used, which communication without consequences possible. conduct experiment offers participants opportunity to ...

Nowadays psychologists have decisively shifted their focus to well-being as a component of school life. Hence, this study was carried out to examine the mediating role of general causality orientation (and its three components, i.e., autonomy, control and impersonal) in the relationship between parental bonding and school well-being. The statistical population of the study was comprised of all ...

Traditional methods of user authentication in distributed systems suuer from an important weakness which is due to the low degree of randomness in secrets that human beings can use for identiication. Even though weak secrets (passwords and PINs) are typically not exposed in the clear over the communication lines, they can be discovered with oo-line brute force attacks based on exhaustive trials...

The focus of this paper is a construction which is surprisingly rarely scrutinised: the impersonal passive of the intransitive. Although it sometimes receives a brief mention in discussions of the passive, and although the impersonal passive label is often wrongly given to morpholexical impersonal constructions, there are as yet no thorough analyses of the impersonal passive available for any l...

Recognition of human activities, using smart phones and wearable devices, has attracted much attention recently. The machine learning (ML) approach to human activity recognition can broadly be classified into two categories: training an ML model on (i) an impersonal dataset or (ii) a personal dataset.
