Abstract: A cognitive priming/spreading activation frame and a lexical decision task paradigm were employed to understand the effects of playing a sexually explicit video game with female “objectification” content on male players. Men who played the sexually explicit video game recognized words with sexual connotations and words describing women as sex objects more quickly than did men in the control conditions. Men who played the sexually explicit game also displayed an increased tendency to engage in sexual harassment compared to men who played non-sexual video games. The anticipated interaction between sex-typing and the sexually explicit video game condition was not found. Overall, the study provides strong empirical evidence that a sexually explicit video game with themes of female “objectification” may prime thoughts related to sex, encourage men to view women as sex objects, and increase the likelihood of self reported tendencies to behave inappropriately toward women in social situations.

Abstract: Considering the mathematical model that estimates the optimal damage of cancer cells by adding genetic drugs, a system of infinite linear differential equations has been posed. In particular, we are interested in finding the explicit solution to the system.
I applied mathematical techniques and the Mathematical Induction method and have found the explicit solution to the infinite linear differential equation system.

Abstract: When it comes to racial issues, Americans are often suspected of a “split personality” holding different explicit and implicit attitudes. This study goes one step further and suggests that implicit racial attitudes may be split: Implicit word associations (e.g., Fazio et al. 1995, Greenwald et al. 1998) may betray a culturally shared anti-Black bias, even when people experience an implicit sense of closeness toward Blacks.
The study combines a representative RDD-telephone survey (n=1,200) with an online reaction time study (n=1,341) on affirmative action, government aid to Blacks, and reparations for slavery. The telephone survey serves as a baseline for comparison to evaluate the validity of online study. The online study allows comparing explicit racial attitudes to the two types of implicit racial attitudes. Culturally shared implicit word associations are measured using a subliminal priming procedure (Fazio et al. 1995). Implicit closeness to Blacks is conceptualized as cognitive overlap between an individual’s self-concept and that individual’s mental representation of African Americans as a group. It is measured using a timed self-rating task developed by Aron et al. (1991).
The results suggest that implicit closeness toward Blacks plays a powerful and consistent role in predicting support for a broad range of pro-Black policies. In contrast, implicit word associations display a powerful pro-White and anti-Black bias across all racial and ethnic groups. Greater anti-Black word-association bias is associated with greater levels of explicit attitude inconsistency. Political and methodological implications are discussed.

Abstract: This study examined differences in the enactment of privacy boundary rules, particularly explicitly and implicitly stated rules and when no rules are negotiated. A survey design measured privacy rules, further revealing, motivations, and type of information. Results indicate that although privacy rules generally serve to safeguard disclosed information from further revealing, they differ based on the participant’s role as recipient or discloser, motivations to not further reveal, and the type of information disclosed.
