Modeling human-like non-rationality in social agents by Kochanowicz, Jaroslaw Slawomir

“…Conversely, non-rationality is characterized by a) informal or sub-symbolic processing instead of one based on formal representations; b) associative, habitual reactions rather than step by step deduction or optimization; c) lack of explicit goals or their link to decision making. Human species is the only one capable of consistent rationality, but the scale and gravity of human non-rationality are far greater than often suspected. …”

Effectiveness of digital education on communication skills among medical students : systematic review and meta-analysis by the digital health education collaboration by Kyaw, Bhone Myint, Posadzki, Pawel, Paddock, Sophie, Car, Josip, Campbell, James, Car, Lorainne Tudor

“…For knowledge outcome, two studies comparing the effectiveness of blended online digital education and traditional learning reported no difference in postintervention knowledge scores between the groups (SMD=0.18; 95% CI: –0.2 to 0.55; I2=61%; N=2 studies [292 students]; small effect size; low-quality evidence). The findings on attitudes, satisfaction, and patient-related outcomes were limited or mixed. …”

Mimicking localized surface plasmons with structural dispersion by Li, Zhuo, Liu, Liangliang, Fernández-Domínguez, Antonio I., Shi, Jianfeng, Gu, Changqing, García-Vidal, Francisco J., Luo, Yu

“…The results reveal that structured-dispersion-induced localized surface plasmons are quite sensitive to the background refractive index but relatively robust to the size and shape of the resonator. These findings open up a new avenue for designer localized surface waves at low frequencies and may find applications in miniaturization of microwave resonators, filters, and terahertz biosensors.…”

A novel eukaryotic RdRP-dependent small RNA pathway represses antiviral immunity by controlling an ERK pathway component in the black-legged tick by Feng, Canran, Torimaru, Kyosuke, Lim, Mandy Yu Theng, Chak, Li-Ling, Shiimori, Masami, Tsuji, Kosuke, Tanaka, Tetsuya, Iida, Junko, Okamura, Katsutomo

“…Here, we study sRNAs in the ISE6 cell line, which is derived from the black-legged tick, an important vector of human and animal pathogens. We find abundant classes of ~22nt sRNAs that require specific combinations of RdRPs and sRNA effector proteins (Argonautes or AGOs). …”

Carrier localization on the nanometer-scale limits transport in metal oxide photoabsorbers by Schleuning, Markus, Kölbach, Moritz, Ahmet, Ibbi, Präg, Raphael, Gottesman, Ronen, Gunder, Rene, Zhang, Mengyuan, Wargulski, Dan Ralf, Abou-Ras, Daniel, Grave, Daniel A., Abdi, Fatwa F., van de Krol, Roel, Schwarzburg, Klaus, Eichberger, Rainer, Friedrich, Dennis, Hempel, Hannes

“…Their kinetics of thermalization, trapping, localization, and recombination are monitored continuously 100 fs–100 µs and mobilities are determined for different probing lengths by combined time-resolved terahertz and microwave spectroscopy. As common issue, we find small mobilities < 3 cm2V-1s-1. Partial carrier localization further slows carrier diffusion beyond localization lengths of 1–6 nm and explains the extraordinarily long conductivity tails, which should not be taken as a sign of long diffusion lengths. …”
