President A. R. Brubaclier will preside at the first international debate in which a State college team has ever participated when the men's varsity squad meets the representatives of Victoria university of New Zealand tomorrow night at 8:15 o'clock in the auditorium of Page hall. The debate will be a non-decision contest, according to the New Zealand style of debating. The subject under discus...

The Master of Liberal Arts provides the chance to practice the methods of interdisciplinary inquiry that are the hallmark of a rigorous liberal arts education. As a student in the program, one can explore questions of identity through art, literature, and religion; analyze the politics of race in fiction, historical documents, the visual arts, and music; debate ethical choices presented by fict...

A concern for individual differences has been missing from the Great Rationality Debate in cognitive science—the debate about how much irrationality to attribute to human cognition. There are individual differences in rational thinking that are less than perfectly correlated with individual differences in intelligence because intelligence and rationality occupy different conceptual locations in...

In a recent book (Stanovich, 2004), I spent a considerable effort trying to work out the implications of dual process theory for the great rationality debate in cognitive science (see Cohen, 1981; Gigerenzer, 1996; Kahneman and Tversky, 1996; Stanovich, 1999; Stein, 1996). In this chapter, I wish to advance that discussion, first by discussing additions and complications to dual-process theory ...

The behavioral sciences and Jung's analytical psychology are set apart by virtue of their respective histories, epistemologies, and definitions of subject matter. This brief paper identifies Jung's scientific stance, notes perceptions of Jung and obstacles for bringing his system of thought into the fold of the behavioral sciences. The impact of the "science versus art" debate on Jung's stance ...

Signal transduction is regulated by protein-protein interactions. In the case of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), the precise nature of these interactions remains a topic of debate. In this review, we describe state-of-the-art imaging techniques that are providing new details into receptor dynamics, clustering, and interactions. We present the general principles of these tec...

The problem of removing white zero-mean Gaussian noise from an image is an interesting inverse problem to be investigated in this paper through sparse and redundant representations. However, finding the sparsest possible solution in the noise scenario was of great debate among the researchers. In this paper we make use of new approach to solve this problem and show that it is comparable with th...
