This online qualitative survey study collected 74 self-identified minor-attracted men's anonymous accounts of romantic attraction to minors. Using reflexive thematic analysis, three themes were identified and interp ...

On the salient limitations of the methods of assembly theory and their classification of molecular biosignatures

Author(s): Uthamacumaran A; Abrahão FS; Kiani NA; Zenil H;

We demonstrate that the assembly pathway method underlying assembly theory (AT) is an encoding scheme widely used by popular statistical compression algorithms. We show that in all cases (synthetic or natural) AT performs similarly to other simple coding schemes and underperforms compared to system-related indexes based upon algorithmic probability that t ...

Proof-of-concept testing of a mobile application-delivered mindfulness exercise for emotional eaters: RAIN delivered as a step-by-step image sequence

Author(s): Carrière K; Siemers N; Thapar S; Knäuper B;

Background: Over fifty percent of individuals with overweight and obesity are emotional eaters. Emotional eating can be theorized as a conditioned response to eat for reasons that are not associated with physiological hunger. We conducted this proof-of-concept study to gather evidence that a mobile app that delivers a common non-meditative mindfulness exe ...

Holographic direct sound printing

Author(s): Derayatifar M; Habibi M; Bhat R; Packirisamy M;

Direct sound printing (DSP), an alternative additive manufacturing process driven by sonochemical polymerization, has traditionally been confined to a single acoustic focal region, resulting in a voxel-by-voxel printing approach. To overcome this limitation, we introduce holographic direct sound printing (HDSP), where acoustic holograms, storing cross-sec ...

Robustness and evolvability: Revisited, redefined and applied

Author(s): Kharma N; Bédard-Couture R;

Building on and extending existing definitions of robustness and evolvability, we propose and utilize new formal definitions, with matching measures, of robustness and evolvability of systems with genotypes and corresponding phenotypes. We explain and show how these measures are more general and more representative of the concepts they stand for, than the ...
