Abstract:
Engagement in academic tasks is important. However, compared to the large body of research on task engagement, the number of studies on task disengagement is quite limited. The aim of this study is to examine the associations between the motivational (self-determination) and attitudinal antecedents (learning orientations) of task disengagement. The sample consisted of 347 fifth-graders in China. We tested two mediation models that incorporated self-determination (autonomous versus controlled), learning orientation (collaborative versus competitive), and task disengagement among Chinese primary

Abstract:
This study tests the assumption that disengagement from a task indicates poor self-control, especially following little progress. A total of 120 undergraduate students worked on Sudoku puzzles, a logical reasoning task for which progress could be measured. A binary logistic regression revealed a three-way interaction among dispositional self-control, dispositional self-awareness, and actual task progress in predicting disengagement versus persistence. Among individuals with high self-awareness, greater self-control was associated with significantly higher probabilities of task persistence duri

Abstract:
The catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) Val158Met polymorphism (rs4680) moderates dopamine degradation in the prefrontal cortex. It has been shown that the Met allele is associated with an increased reactivity to negative stimuli. With regard to the tonic-phasic dopamine model it is hypothesized that this increased reactivity to negative stimuli derives from deficient disengagement from negative stimuli. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate whether this increased reactivity is reflected in prolonged disengagement from negative pictures. We used a novel forced spatial disengagemen

Understanding human actions often requires in-depth detection and interpretation of bio-signals. Early eye disengagement from the target (EEDT) represents a significant eye behavior that involves the proactive disengagement of the gazes from the target to gather information on the anticipated pathway, thereby enabling rapid reactions to the environment. It remains unknown how task difficulty and task repetition affect EEDT. We aim to provide direct evidence of how these factors influence EEDT.

Abstract:
In the present work, we focused on mind-wandering (MW). MW is a multidimensional mental state that absorbs parts of our waking life and can be defined as a shift of attention away from a current activity towards internal thoughts unrelated to the ongoing activity. Although neurocognitive studies on MW have increased substantially over the last years, there are still a number of overlooked questions. In particular, a number of researchers have indicated a need for investigations of the dynamics of this process. To this end, it would be especially important to focus on the two basic elements of

Abstract IN a competitive field, Socrates’ pronouncement that the philosopher practises dying and being dead (Phaedo 64 A 5-6) must rank as one of the most startling in all of Plato’s works. What does he mean by it? The following, at least, seems tolerably clear. Death is the release or separation of the soul from the body (64 c), so that one who practises death strives even in life to effect this separation to the greatest possible extent. Given that the soul is one’s true self, 1 the philosopher’s task is to keep his soul-i.e. himself-free from his body. This in turn seems to encompass two r

The idea of a dog clutch without circular backlash is based on a unique and patented mechanical blocking mechanism which secures the clutch in desired positions - engaged or neutral. Using this blocking mechanism, we can shape the dogs in the way not common for dog clutches - narrower tip than root. This design minimizes the amount of circular backlash typical for dog clutches and thereby improves ride quality. It also enables disengagement under load which can fasten the gearshift of the dog clutch already being a quick gearshift device. Using external synchronization is necessary. Prototype
