MLB news roundup

Happy Wednesday, Athletics Nation!

What happens when you add a bit of offense to your excellent defense? You start winning games in bunches. The A’s put up a second straight five spot against the Pirates last night to win their third straight game. The A’s are now 13-11 since getting off to an awful start this season with a 1-6 homestand.

The Stage Is Set for a Resurgence of Nuclear Power in the U.S.

Oilprice.com 

The United States is about to experience a resurgence in nuclear energy. The federal government is expected to continue restarting shuttered nuclear power plants in the coming years to meet the increasing demand for clean, dependable energy essential for powering the economy of tomorrow.  "There are a couple of nuclear power plants that we probably should, and can, turn back on," Jigar Shah, director of the US Energy Department's Loan Programs Office, told Bloomberg in an interview.

The performance of restricted AIC for irregular histogram models

Plos.org 

by Sahika Gokmen, Johan Lyhagen

Histograms are frequently used to perform a preliminary study of data, such as finding outliers and determining the distribution’s shape. It is common knowledge that choosing an appropriate number of bins is crucial to revealing the right information. It’s also well known that using bins of different widths, which called unequal bin width, is preferable to using bins of equal width if the bin width is selected carefully. However this is a much difficult issue. Читать дальше...

Environmental attitude and affective-motivational beliefs towards sustainability of secondary school children in Germany and their associations with gender, age, school type, socio-economic status and time spent in nature

Plos.org 

by Charlotta Bucht, Joachim Bachner, Sarah Spengler

There are warnings that human actions will lead to irreversible environmental damage if they continue at their current pace and scale. With regard to individual aspects, a pro-environmental attitude and positive affective-motivational beliefs towards sustainability represent fundamentals for a more sustainable future. However, there is little data regarding these constructs and relevant explanatory factors, especially with regard to young people. Читать дальше...

Is there a bilingual advantage in auditory attention among children? A systematic review and meta-analysis of standardized auditory attention tests

Plos.org 

by Wenfu Bao, Claude Alain, Michael Thaut, Monika Molnar

A wealth of research has investigated the associations between bilingualism and cognition, especially in regards to executive function. Some developmental studies reveal different cognitive profiles between monolinguals and bilinguals in visual or audio-visual attention tasks, which might stem from their attention allocation differences. Yet, whether such distinction exists in the auditory domain alone is unknown. In this study, we compared differences in auditory attention... Читать дальше...

Psychological effects of anti-Arab politics on American and Arab peoples’ views of each other

Plos.org 

by Youngki Hong, Angela T. Maitner, Kyle G. Ratner

Disparaging rhetoric about Arab people was prevalent during Donald Trump’s political rise in the United States. Although this rhetoric was intended to energize conservative Americans, it also echoed throughout many liberal parts of the United States and around the world. In this research, we experimentally examined the effects of such rhetoric on American and Arab people’s attitudes and visual representations of each other before and after Trump was elected.

Conversion practices in Aotearoa New Zealand: Developing a holistic response to spiritual abuse

Plos.org 

by Michael Roguski, Nicola Atwool

Research arising from conversion practices, also known as conversion therapy and sexual orientation and gender identity change efforts, has generally been underpinned by an emancipatory discourse that has evolved to counter harmful practices by evidencing associated harms and estimating prevalence. Little attention, however, has focused on what is required to support survivors, inclusive of those currently or those having previously experienced conversion efforts. Читать дальше...

Dissecting Bayes: Using influence measures to test normative use of probability density information derived from a sample test

Plos.org 

by Keiji Ota, Laurence T. Maloney

Bayesian decision theory (BDT) is frequently used to model normative performance in perceptual, motor, and cognitive decision tasks where the possible outcomes of actions are associated with rewards or penalties. The resulting normative models specify how decision makers should encode and combine information about uncertainty and value–step by step–in order to maximize their expected reward. When prior, likelihood, and posterior are probabilities, the Bayesian... Читать дальше...
