This paper examines a newly created approach to exploring travel motivations, the Travel Career Patterns (TCP) model. Through an analysis of the TCP model, the authors advance travel motivation theory by making three contributions: a refinement of the definition of travel experience; the use and evaluation of essays as a qualitative tool for interpreting travel motives; and an extension of the ...

Misattributions people make about their own affective reactions can be used to measure attitudes implicitly. Combining the logic of projective tests with advances in priming research, the affect misattribution procedure (AMP) was sensitive to normatively favorable and unfavorable evaluations (Experiments 1-4), and the misattribution effect was strong at both fast and slow presentation rates (Ex...

Logically, though not historically, projective techniques must be regarded as a part of the general field of psychological measurement. Projective testing and research may therefore legitimately be studied within the theoretical and methodologicall framework of psychological measurement, always keeping in mind, of course, the problems that are peculiar to projective techniques. Largely as a.. r...

We consider the problem of matching perspective views of coplanar structures composed of line segments. Both model-to-image and image-to-image correspondence matching are given a consistent treatment. These matching scenarios generally require discovery of an eight parameter projective mapping. However, when the horizon line of the object plane can be found in the image, done here using vanishi...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of {bf K}-flat projective fuzzy quantales, and give an elementary characterization in terms of a fuzzy binary relation on the fuzzy quantale. Moreover, we  prove that {bf K}-flat projective fuzzy quantales are precisely the coalgebras for a certain comonad on the category of fuzzy quantales. Finally, we present two special cases of {bf K} as examples.

A. Girand has constructed an explicit two-parameter family of flat connections over the complex projective plane ℙ 2 . These have dihedral monodromy and their polar locus is a prescribed quintic composed conic three tangent lines. In this paper, we give generalization construction. That is, construct n-parameter space n Moreover, discuss relation between these Garnier system.

These notes contain the material about noncommutative projective algebraic geometry that the author lectured on at the graduate workshop in June 2012 at MSRI. The notes generally contain everything covered in the lectures but may contain more than we are able to say in the lectures. Still, there are many facts we assume without proof in the lectures and for length reasons we generally do not pu...

in this paper, lie group structure and lie algebra structure of unit complex 3-sphere     are studied. in order to do this, adjoint representations of unit biquaternions (complexified quaternions) are obtained. also, a correspondence between the elements of     and the special complex unitary matrices    (2) is given by expressing biquaternions as 2-dimensional bicomplex numbers    .  the relat...

An unstable torsion free sheaf on a smooth projective variety gives a GIT unstable point in certain Quot scheme. To a GIT unstable point, Kempf associates a “maximally destabilizing” 1-parameter subgroup, and this induces a filtration of the torsion free sheaf. We show that this filtration coincides with the Harder-Narasimhan filtration.
