An influential line of research suggests that initial bouts of self-control increase the susceptibility to self-control failure (ego depletion effect). Despite seemingly abundant evidence, some researchers have suggested that evidence for ego depletion was the sole result of publication bias and p-hacking, with the true effect being indistinguishable from zero. Here, we examine (a) whether the ...

reading in psychology, law, ethics and theology, together with an intimate experiencf^ a psychotherapist of the inner life of people bedevilled by guilt feelings. He deals the origin and development of guilt and anxiety, and the contrast between those domina throughout life by a stern super-ego and those who mature to a real sense of personal ponsibility which can accept the objective fact of t...

Several methods for computing observer motion from monocular and stereo image sequences have been proposed. However, accurate positioning over long distances requires a higher level of robustness than previously achieved. This paper describes several mechanisms for improving robust-ness in the context of a maximum-likelihood stereo ego-motion method. We demonstrate that even a robust system wil...

Robust navigation for mobile robots over long distances requires an accurate method for tracking the robot position in the environment. Techniques for position estimation by determining the camera egomotion from monocular or stereo sequences have been previously described. However, long-distance navigation requires a very high level of robustness and a very low rate of error growth. In this pap...

This review examined whether Loevinger's measure of personality (ego) development is equivalent to the measurement of intelligence. The authors conducted a meta-analysis of 52 correlations between ego level scores and intelligence test scores (retrieved from 42 studies involving 5,648 participants). The weighted average correlation between ego level and intelligence ranged from.20 to.34, depend...

EGO is a parallel molecular dynamics program running on Transputers. We conducted a performance analysis of the EGO program in order to determine whether it was eeectively using the computational resources of Transputers. Our rst concern was whether communication was overlapped with computation, so that the overheads due to communication not overlapped with computation were less. With the assis...

Epigenomics is crucial to understand biological mechanisms beyond genome DNA. To better represent epigenomic knowledge and support data integration, we developed a prototype Epigenome Ontology (EGO). EGO top level hierarchy and design pattern are provided with a use case illustration. EGO is proposed to be used for statistically analyzing enriched epigenomic features based on given sequence dat...

The constructs of intelligence and ego-resiliency are discussed. The personality implications of "pure intelligence" and "pure ego-resilience" were identified. Intelligence (IQ) was indexed by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised and ego-resiliency by an inventory scale. Residual scores measuring "pure intelligence" and "pure ego-resilience" were correlated with the items of the observ...

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary bone malignancy, but current therapies are far from effective for all patients. A better understanding of the pathological mechanism of OS may help to achieve new treatments for this tumor. Hence, the objective of this study was to investigate ego modules and pathways in OS utilizing EgoNet algorithm and pathway-related analysis, and reveal pathologi...

Research on ego depletion aims at explaining self-control failures in daily life. Both resource models and motivational accounts have been proposed for explanation. The aim of the present research was to test the different assumptions in two dual-task experiments where we operationalized ego depletion as a performance deviation from a self-set goal. In two experiments, we found evidence for thi...
