119The law of large numbers in children's diversity-based reasoningThinking and Reasoning 15 (4): 388-404. 2009.Adults increase the certainty of their inductive inferences by observing more diverse instances. However, most young children fail to do so. The present study tested the hypothesis that children's sensitivity to instance diversity is determined by three variables: ability to discriminate among instances ( Discrimination ); an intuition that large numbers of instances increase the strength of conclusion ( Monotonicity ); ability to detect subcategories and evaluate numerical differences between t…Read more

75Modified Whale Optimization Algorithm for Solar Cell and PV Module Parameter IdentificationComplexity 2021 1-23. 2021.The whale optimization algorithm is a powerful swarm intelligence method which has been widely used in various fields such as parameter identification of solar cells and PV modules. In order to better balance the exploration and exploitation of WOA, we propose a novel modified WOA in which both the mutation strategy based on Levy flight and a local search mechanism of pattern search are introduced. On the one hand, Levy flight can make the algorithm get rid of the local optimum and avoid stagnat…Read more

26Exogenous Testosterone Increases Decoy Effect in Healthy MalesFrontiers in Psychology 9 416006. 2018.There is increasing interest in the role played by testosterone in economic decision-making and social cognition. However, despite the growing body of findings in this field of research, no empirical study to date has tested whether testosterone modulates decision-making when an asymmetrically dominated decoy option is introduced in a choice set. Within a choice set that comprises two options, an asymmetrically dominated decoy option is a third option that, when introduced in the choice set, is …Read more

14Harm or protection? Two-sided consequences of females' susceptible responses to multiple threatsBehavioral and Brain Sciences 45. 2022.The target article presented a plausible argument that females' susceptibility to threats might be self-protection for staying alive, but some evidence requires scrutiny. We need to consider the biases of narrative reviews, subjective life quality, and the shadow side of extreme reactions to threats before concluding that females' threat-based response is a self-protection mechanism that promotes survival.

13Taking Decisions Too Seriously: Why Maximizers Often Get Mired in ChoicesFrontiers in Psychology 13. 2022.Maximizing is a topic that has received significant attention from researchers and corporate organizations alike. Although extensive previous research has explored how maximizers behave in a decision scenario, a fundamental question remains about why they prefer a larger assortment regardless of whether the decisions are important or not. This study attempts to explore the underlying mechanism of this phenomenon. Four surveys were conducted, and participants from Mturk or Credamo online platform…Read more

11Scramblases and virus infectionBioessays 44 (12): 2100261. 2022.The asymmetric distribution of lipids, maintained by flippases/floppases and scramblases, plays a pivotal role in various physiologic processes. Scramblases are proteins that move phospholipids between the leaflets of the lipid bilayer of the cellular membrane in an energy‐independent manner. Recent studies have indicated that viral infection is closely related to cellular lipid distribution. The level and distribution of phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) in cells have been demonstrated to be critical…Read more

10MyOcrTool: Visualization System for Generating Associative Images of Chinese Characters in Smart DevicesComplexity 2021 1-14. 2021.Majority of Chinese characters are pictographic characters with strong associative ability and when a character appears for Chinese readers, they usually associate with the objects, or actions related to the character immediately. Having this background, we propose a system to visualize the simplified Chinese characters, so that developing any skills of either reading or writing Chinese characters is not necessary. Considering the extensive use and application of mobile devices, automatic identi…Read more

7How Pragmatics could be Transcendental?Proceedings of the XXIII World Congress of Philosophy 53 87-91. 2018.It is well known that pragmatics was traditionally attributed to empirical subject, but Karl-Otto Apel tries to argue the possibility of transcendental pragmatics, which is to focus on conditions of the possibility of knowledge in the context of the contemporary philosophy of language, to make a semiotic transformation of transcendental Kantian philosophy, to seek the normative justification and the transcendental foundation for the valid claim, and to provide another philosophical paradigm of i…Read more

6Uncertainty Measure for Multisource Intuitionistic Fuzzy Information SystemComplexity 2022 1-21. 2022.Multisource information systems and multigranulation intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets are important extended types of Pawlak’s classical rough set model. Multigranulation intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets have been investigated in depth in recent years. However, few studies have considered this combination of multisource information systems and intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets. In this paper, we give the uncertainty measure for multisource intuitionistic fuzzy information system. Against the backgro…Read more
