Verbal reports as data
- Psychological Review
, 1980
"... The central proposal of this article is that verbal reports are data. Accounting for verbal reports, as for other kinds of data, requires explication of the mech-anisms by which the reports are generated, and the ways in which they are sensitive to experimental factors (instructions, tasks, etc.). W ..."

.). Within the theoret-ical framework of human information processing, we discuss different types of processes underlying verbalization and present a model of how subjects, in re-sponse to an instruction to think aloud, verbalize information that they are attending to in short-term memory (STM).

Illusion and well-being: A social psychological perspective on mental health.
- Psychological Bulletin,
, 1988
"... Many prominent theorists have argued that accurate perceptions of the self, the world, and the future are essential for mental health. Yet considerable research evidence suggests that overly positive selfevaluations, exaggerated perceptions of control or mastery, and unrealistic optimism are charac ..."

Decades of psychological wisdom have established contact with reality as a hallmark of mental health. In this view, the well-adjusted person is thought to engage in accurate reality testing
A Critique of Software Defect Prediction Models
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
, 1999
"... Many organizations want to predict the number of defects (faults) in software systems, before they are deployed, to gauge the likely delivered quality and maintenance effort. To help in this numerous software metrics and statistical models have been developed, with a correspondingly large literatur ..."

of the models have often made heroic contributions to a subject otherwise bereft of empirical studies. However, there are a number of serious theoretical and practical problems in many studies. The models are weak because of their inability to cope with the, as yet, unknown relationship between defects
I Tube, You Tube, Everybody Tubes: Analyzing the World’s Largest User Generated Content Video System

"... User Generated Content (UGC) is re-shaping the way people watch video and TV, with millions of video producers and consumers. In particular, UGC sites are creating new viewing patterns and social interactions, empowering users to be more creative, and developing new business opportunities. To better ..."

3-D Sound for Virtual Reality and Multimedia
, 2000
"... This paper gives HRTF magnitude data in numerical form for 43 frequencies between 0.2---12 kHz, the average of 12 studies representing 100 different subjects. However, no phase data is included in the tables; group delay simulation would need to be included in order to account for ITD. In 3-D sound ..."

Otherwise, the use of one HRTF set over another is a purely subjective judgment based on criteria other than localization performance. The technique used by Wightman and Kistler
Causal Diagrams For Empirical Research
"... The primary aim of this paper is to show how graphical models can be used as a mathematical language for integrating statistical and subject-matter information. In particular, the paper develops a principled, nonparametric framework for causal inference, in which diagrams are queried to determine if ..."

Habit and intention in everyday life: The multiple processes by which past behavior predicts future behavior
- Psychological Bulletin
, 1998
"... Past behavior guides future responses through 2 processes. Well-practiced behaviors in constant contexts recur because the processing that initiates and controls their performance b comes automatic. Frequency of past behavior then reflects habit strength and has a direct effect on future performance ..."

Alternately, when behaviors are not well learned or when they are performed in unstable or difficult contexts, conscious decision making is likely to be necessary to initiate and carry out the behavior. Under these conditions, past behavior (along with attitudes and subjective norms) may
Constrained Delaunay triangulations
- Algorithmica
, 1989
"... Given a set of n vertices in the plane together with a set of noncrossing edges, the constrained Delaunay triangulation (CDT) is the triangulation of the vertices with the following properties: (1) the prespecified edges are included in the triangulation, and (2) it is as close as possible to the De ..."

Emerging Market Business Cycles: The Cycle Is the Trend
- Journal of Political Economy

"... Emerging market business cycles exhibit strongly countercyclical current accounts, consumption volatility that exceeds income volatility, and "sudden stops" in capital inflows. These features contrast with developed small open economies. Nevertheless, we show that a standard model charact ..."

Motivated by the frequent policy regime switches observed in emerging markets, our premise is that these economies are subject to substantial volatility in trend growth. Our methodology exploits the information in consumption and net exports to identify the persistence
Behavioral theories and the neurophysiology of reward,
- Annu. Rev. Psychol.

Therefore, the investigation of neural mechanisms underlying reward functions requires behavioral theories that can ..."

preparatory or approach behavior toward the reward. In Pavlovian conditioning, subjects automatically show nonconsummatory behavioral reactions that would otherwise occur after the primary reward and that increase the chance of consuming the reward, as if a part of the behavioral response has been transferred
