Abstract:

This paper studies affective politics generated by ugly feelings such as fear, contempt, and shame in the characters of the story “Yambunera” written by Bina Theeng from anthology of stories named Yambunera. The first part of this paper emphasizes on ugly feeling and affective politics as the major theoretical framework. Affect theory has evolved from studying emotions to using these emotions to analyze different aspects of human life, even nature. Ugly feelings are also called negative feelings which are related to emotions. The study investigates how these negative emotions are created, circ

Abstract:

Mnemonic discrimination, the ability to differentiate highly similar old and new entities, is a novel mechanism of interest in anxiety disorders. However, little research has been conducted with individuals experiencing severe anxiety. Mnemonic discrimination was assessed in adults with a wide range of anxiety severity. State affect was manipulated to test whether the relationship between anxiety and mnemonic discrimination is more informative under threatening versus neutral conditions. Relative to control conditions, mnemonic discrimination worsened following a psychological (social evaluati

Visual analogue mood scales provide extremely rapid, single-item assessment of affective states. This study examined discrimination on a single-item visual analogue depression scale between dysphoric or mildly depressed and nondepressed individuals in a sample of 284 college students. The visual analogue mood scale significantly discriminated subjects by mood category and achieved comparable hit rate, sensitivity, and specificity relative to other well validated mood scales.

Abstract:

A decline in emotion recognition ability across the lifespan has been well documented. However, whether age predicts emotion recognition difficulties after accounting for potentially confounding factors which covary with age remains unclear. Although previous research suggested that age-related decline in emotion recognition ability may be partly a consequence of cognitive (fluid intelligence, processing speed) and affective (e.g., depression) factors, recent theories highlight a potential role for alexithymia (difficulty identifying and describing one’s emotions) and interoception (perception

Breathing plays a critical role not only in homeostatic survival, but also in modulating other non-interoceptive perceptual and affective processes. Recent evidence from both human and rodent models indicates that neural and behavioural oscillations are influenced by respiratory state as breathing cycles from inspiration to expiration.

Abstract In human psychology, the link between cognition and emotions is broadly accepted. However, the idea of using the interaction between cognition and emotions as a tool for a better understanding of animal emotions or for welfare assessment is relatively new. The first avian species used in cognitive bias tests was the European starling followed by the domestic chicken and other species. The most frequently used paradigm is the affect-induced judgment bias. There are many variations of the judgment bias tests in birds. The test itself is preceded by discrimination training.

Communicating emotions to conspecifics (emotion expression) allows the regulation of social interactions (e.g. approach and avoidance). Moreover, when emotions are transmitted from one individual to the next, leading to state matching (emotional contagion), information transfer and coordination between group members are facilitated. Despite the high potential for vocalizations to influence the affective state of surrounding individuals, vocal contagion of emotions has been largely unexplored in non-human animals.

Abstract:

In the biometric recognition mode, the use of electroencephalogram (EEG) for biometric recognition has many advantages such as anticounterfeiting and nonsteal ability. Compared with traditional biometrics, EEG biometric recognition is safer and more concealed. Generally, EEG-based biometric recognition is to perform person identification (PI) through EEG signals collected by performing motor imagination and visual evoked tasks. The aim of this paper is to improve the performance of different affective EEG-based PI using a channel attention mechanism of convolutional neural dense connection net

Abstract:

The principle of Non-discrimination of the World Trade Organization (WT0) aims to provide fairness to all member countries by means of the Most Favored Nations Treatment and National Treatment under the General Agreement of Trade and Tariffs (GATT). Accordingly, the free trade has been promoted in all regions of the world. However, many WTO members resort to take advantage of general exceptions to the non-discriminatory practice by invoking Article XX of WTO in disguise, thus affecting the free trade principle of WTO.

ABSTRACTThe Maoist movement has become one of the biggest threats to internal security in India, affecting nearly 165districts across 14 states. The widespread discontent in rural areas, especially among tribal communities who havelong faced economic hardship, social discrimination, and political exploitation, has allowed left-wing extremistgroups to promote their violent political ideologies. Ecological issues, resource exploitation, and the failure touphold the constitutional protections for tribal communities have further fuelled the growth of the movement.Chhattisgarh, in particular, is co

Abstract:

Recently, generative adversarial network (GAN)-based methods for hyperspectral image (HSI) classification have attracted research attention due to their ability to alleviate the challenges brought by having limited labeled samples. However, several studies have demonstrated that existing GAN-based HSI classification methods are limited in redundant spectral knowledge and cannot extract discriminative characteristics, thus affecting classification performance. In addition, GAN-based methods always suffer from the model collapse, which seriously hinders their development. In this study, we propo

Abstract:

In contemporary kinship studies, state and family appear to be closely related. This forceful affiliation is a result of complex historical and social contestation where reproduction, socialization and ties of affection are not only naturally intimate but also politically public. Anthropologists have much to comment on this; alas, their educated and comparative observations often go unnoticed. The speakers in this debate more often seem to represent the social policy rofessions, state bureaucracies and legal expertise.  European immigration politics generally are illustrative. The

Abstract:

The scourge of gender discrimination with respect to land accessibility in developing countries has been very disturbing. It is far from being eliminated and has the potential of widening the socioeconomic gap between men and women, with women slipping further down the poverty valley. This study reports an empirical investigation of gender-based discriminatory practices affecting access to land and their consequences in Nigeria's south-south state of Delta. Apart from establishing the extent and prevalence of such practices in the area, the study also evaluated mitigating strategies and assess

In a large scale study on 843 transcripts of Technology, Entertainment and Design (TED) talks, the authors address the relation between word usage and categorical affective ratings of lectures by a large group of internet users. Users rated the lectures by assigning one or more predefined tags which relate to the affective state evoked in the audience (e. g., ‘fascinating’, ‘funny’, ‘courageous’, ‘unconvincing’ or ‘long-winded’). By automatic classification experiments, they demonstrate the usefulness of linguistic features for predicting these subjective ratings. Extensive test runs are condu
