Assessing Impulsivity in Adolescents with Borderline Personality Features via an Emotional Contextual Go/NoGo Paradigm by Wang Q, Chen Y, Zhong J

“…Repeated measures ANCOVAs were performed without and with invalidating family environment as a covariate to compare the behavioral outcomes of the Go/Nogo task between participants with different levels of borderline personality features under different emotions.Results: Adolescents with high borderline personality features made significantly more commission errors in the Go/NoGo task only in positive emotional conditions, and the group differences in commission error rates became non-significant after controlling invalidating family environment.Conclusion: The results suggest the impaired response inhibition function particularly under positive emotions of adolescents high in borderline personality features and its close association to invalidating family environment, pointing to more targeted diagnostic and treatment strategies for adolescent borderline personality disorder.Keywords: impulsivity, response inhibition, borderline personality disorder, invalidating family environment, emotions…”

METHOD OF IDENTIFICATION OF OBJECT STATES ACCORDING TO THE RESULTS OF FUZZY MEASUREMENTS OF CONTROLLED PARAMETERS by Лев Григорович Раскін, Лариса Вадимівна Сухомлин, Юрій Володимирович Іванчихін, Роман Олегович Корсун

“…At the same time, the correct problem of estimating the informativity of a parameter is solved for cases when this parameter is measured accurately or determined fuzzily by its belonging function. The fundamental difference between the proposed logical output mechanism and the traditional one is the refusal to use the production rule base, which ensures the practical independence of the computational procedure from the dimension of the task. …”

“Corporate Scene Investigation”: A Praxeological Attempt to Sketch the Profile of the Entrepreneur in Modern Business by Octavian-Dragomir Jora, Mihai-Vladimir Topan, Radu Cristian Muşetescu, Matei-Alexandru Apăvăloaei

“…Beyond the place in the global division of labour, they are fiefs of in-built specialization among the corporate governance stakeholders, each of them representing individual-based aggregations of pure catallactic functions. With an atomized, anonymous, asymmetrical and amalgamated ownership in a globalized capital market, with the multi-level directorship, delegated to harmonize profit-orientated investment interests, with creditors, but also with other suppliers of factors of production, modern corporations seem to have overshadowed both the real entrepreneurs-actors as well as the pure corresponding function. …”
