    Continuous and Step-level Pay-off Functions in Public Good Games: A Conceptual Analysis

    Get PDF
    Conflicts between individuals’ and collective interests are ubiquitous in social life. Numerous experimental studies have investigated the resolution of such conflicts using public good games with either continuous or step-level payoff functions. A conceptual analysis using both classic game theory and social exchange theory shows that these two types of games are fundamentally different. A continuous function game is a social dilemma in that it contains a conflict between individual and collective interests whereas a step-level game is primarily a social coordination game. Thus, we conclude that one can not safely generalize results from step-level to continuous form games. Additionally, our analysis shows that the distinction between continuous and single-step games can be blurred by segmenting a continuous function into steps or adding steps to a single-step game. We identify characteristics of the payoff function that conceptually mark the transition from a dilemma to a coordination problem.

    Thank you note from Susanne Freitas in San Juan Bautista, California, for the chrysanthemum flowers that the Okine's sent to her.

It includes correspondence, photographs, financial documents, and a photo album. A large portion of the collection consists of family correspondence with Seiichi and Tomeyo Okine, including letters from their Nisei children, Masao and Makoto Okine, both soldiers overseas during World War II, to their Issei parents incarcerated in the Rohwer incarceration camp in McGehee, Arkansas. The correspondence also includes letters from their relatives and friends who are former incarcerees in the camps during the war and have “resettled” in Chicago, Illinois as well as letters from the Okines’ family members in Hiroshima, Japan during the Allied occupation of Japan.

    The process of observing the moon becomes one of the important things to do. Especially in the process determining from the beginning of month kamariyah or often referred as rukyatul hilal. Where is a challenge for the observers to see a very thin moon, moreover with weather conditions that are not always bright? In addition, observing the moon at the time of eclipse can increase the faith in understanding the signs and power of Allah SWT. With regard to the presence of Susanne M. Hoffmann at Islamic Astronomy Master Program Walisongo State Islamic University, the author is very interested in examining her thoughts about observing the moon. Susanne M. Hoffmann is an expert astronomist in the history of science, physics, and didactics. She expressed the bad condition of the sky and the air in Semarang. In addition, Susanne M. Hoffmann also suggested repeating Al-Biruni observation. This study aims to find out Susanne M. Hoffmann discourse related observing the moon and to know her suggestion to repeat Al-Biruni observation on measuring the distance between two cities. This research includes for qualitative research and includes the type of library research. Primary data is taken from in-depth interviews and documentation of Susanne M. Hoffmann’s writings, works, and photographs. While the secondary data obtained from the documentation of books, journals, and articles of others work related to research. Meanwhile, to study of Susanne M. Hoffmann discourse author uses descriptive analysis method. The results show, that Susanne M. Hofmann discourse in observing the moon is divided into two lines. First, in response to the poor condition of the sky and air in Indonesia, or Semarang in particular, Susanne M. Hoffmann still recommends doing rukyatul hilal. Furthermore, rukyatul hilal is best to do with the naked eye than using a telescope or optical instrument. Second, about the lunar eclipse, in accordance with the field, she mastered the history of Science. Susanne M. Hoffmann was succeeding to repeat the Al-Biruni observation in measuring the distance of two cities by the lunar eclipse

    Susanne K. Langer and the Definition of Art

    No full text
    This essay aims to analyze the conception of a work of art in the thought of Susanne K. Langer. The author offers us a definition of art, grounded on the idea that art is the “creation of symbolic forms of human feeling”. This thesis is, in turn, constructed from a robust theory of the symbolic function of the human mind

    "The poetics of everyday life": the sublime as an aesthetic force in the lyric poetry of Emily Dickinson and Annette Von Droste-Hülshohh

    No full text
    Emily Dickinson's and Annette von Droste-Hülshoff's poetry of the everyday is transfigured by the sublime. The dissertation uses close reading to stress form, suggesting that poetic practice cannot fold into the group mind-set of much late twentieth-century feminist literary criticism which tended to analyze women's writing in isolation as symptomatic of issues pertaining to gender. The dissertation places these writers firmly in their cultural and historical contexts, establishing parallels between Dickinson's and Droste's milieus. Both authors demonstrate aspects of late-Romanticism / Biedermeier-Romanticism, a reaction or taming of early-Romantic excesses. Thus the dissertation points the direction of women's writing away from gendered formations exclusively, to broader concerns pertaining to culture and society which include but are not limited to gender contingencies.Ph.D.Includes abstractVitaIncludes bibliographical referencesby Susanne Silvia Navarr

    Ischemic stroke across sexes: What is the status quo?

    No full text
    Stroke prevalence is expected to increase in the next decades due to the aging of the Western population. Ischemic stroke (IS) shows an age- and sex-dependent distribution in which men represent the most affected population within 65 years of age, being passed by post-menopausal women in older age groups. Furthermore, a sexual dimorphism concerning risk factors, presentation and treatment of IS has been widely recognized. In order to address these phenomena, a number of issue have been raised involving both socio-economical and biological factors. The latter can be either dependent on sex hormones or due to intrinsic factors. Although women have poorer outcomes and are more likely to die after a cerebrovascular event, they are still underrepresented in clinical trials and this is mirrored by the lack of sex-tailored therapies. A greater effort is needed in the future to ensure improved treatment and quality of life to both sexes
