The Effects of Technology Driven Information Categories on Performance in Electronic Trading Markets
Electronic trading markets have evolved rapidly with continued adoption of new technologies and growing information acquisition and processing capabilities. Traditional perspectives on trading performance adopted a monolithic view of information. Past research and practitioner heuristics posit that adopting new technologies and incorporating more information should increase price efficiency and trading performance uniformity. However, along with technological change, in-formation dynamics have evolved significantly resulting in immense growth in data volumes, and increased complexity of information categories. The present research explores behavioral trading performance under varying information category conditions and argues that unfettered technological developments and information consumption will not necessarily lead to consistent improvement in uniformity of trading performance. In this study, we employ an artificial stock market based economic experiment to examine the role of technology driven information categories in influencing trading decisions in electronic markets. Financial electronic markets are used as an information-rich mature markets representation to analyze information category driven trading performance. The results show that a variation of information categories can influence trading performance. The findings provide a basis to better understand behavioral phenomena in electronic markets and can be used to explain anomalies as well as to manage trading performance in electronic markets.Version of Record (VOR

Energy expenditure of obese men walking with body weight support
Purpose: To investigate the effects of energy expenditure during walking at 100% to 75% while on a lower body positive pressure treadmill (LBPP) on energy expenditure in men classified as obese. Results: Total EE, EEFM, and EEFFM were significantly lower (p<.05) at 75% BW compared to 100% BW. Conclusion: Un weighting on the LBPP can is safe and can be used as an effective exercise modality to increase energy expenditure over time.Version of Record (VoR
