Two experiments tested when and why women's typically negative, spontaneous reactions to sexual imagery would soften. Sexual economics theory predicts that women want sex to be seen as rare and special. We reasoned that this outlook would translate to women tolerating sexual images more when those images are linked to high worth as opposed to low worth. We manipulated whether an ad promoted an ...

A new explicit formula for the integrals of Bernstein polynomials of any degree for any order in terms of Bernstein polynomials themselves is derived. A fast and accurate algorithm is developed for the solution of high even-order boundary value problems (BVPs) with two point boundary conditions but by considering their integrated forms. The Bernstein–Petrov–Galerkinmethod (BPG) is applied to co...

Nitric oxide has enigmatic qualities in inflammation. In order to appreciate the precise contributions of nitric oxide to a pathophysiological process, one must account for enzyme source, coproduction of oxidants and antioxidant defences, time, rate of nitric oxide production, cellular source, peroxynitrite formation and effects on DNA (mutagenesis/apoptosis). We contend that there is ample evi...
