Beanballs and the psychology of revenge
2012-04-05
PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — This week, as tens of millions of Americans awaited the baseball season's first pitches, Brown University psychologist Fiery Cushman was watching more warily for the first beanballs. As someone who studies moral judgment, Cushman recognizes that the intentional targeting of an innocent player to avenge a hit batsman could be a telling exception within American culture, even if the rest of the game is a national institution.
Cushman and collaborators A.J. Durwin of Hofstra Univeristy and Chaz Lively of Boston University put the question ...
Shifting sands
2012-04-05
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Sand in an hourglass might seem simple and straightforward, but such granular materials are actually tricky to model. From far away, flowing sand resembles a liquid, streaming down the center of an hourglass like water from a faucet. But up close, one can make out individual grains that slide against each other, forming a mound at the base that holds its shape, much like a solid.
Sand's curious behavior — part fluid, part solid — has made it difficult for researchers to predict how it and other granular materials flow under various conditions. A ...

Study: More accurate method required for tracking skin cancer cases
2012-04-05
DETROIT –Henry Ford Hospital dermatology researchers are urging caution about using claims data for identifying nonmelanoma skin cancer, suggesting that the commonly used method, which previously had not been validated, may be unreliable.
Instead, researchers say, an electronic pathology report (EPR) is far superior for more accurately identifying cases.
Claims data is common health insurance billing information. EPR shows the biopsy of a skin specimen result.
In a study published online Thursday in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, lead author and Henry Ford ...

Obese patients face higher radiation exposure from CT scans -- but new technology can help
2012-04-05
Troy, N.Y. – Most medical imaging equipment is not designed with overweight and obese patients in mind. As a result, these individuals can be exposed to higher levels of radiation during routine X-ray and CT scans.
A new study from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is the first to calculate exactly how much additional radiation obese patients receive from a CT scan. Research results show the internal organs of obese men receive 62 percent more radiation during a CT scan than those of normal weight men. For obese women, it was an increase of 59 percent.
New technology ...

Deaf children's gesture mismatches provide clues to learning moments
2012-04-05
In a discovery that could help instructors better teach deaf children, a team of University of Chicago researchers has found that a gesture-sign mismatch made while explaining a math problem suggests that a deaf child is experiencing a teachable moment.
Through a series of experiments with 40 deaf children, ages nine through 12, all of whom were fluent in American Sign Language, researchers were able to distinguish between ASL signs and gestures that look like the gestures hearing children produce when explaining the same math problems.
The deaf students who expressed ...
Ex-Spouse Missing Payments? You Might be Held Responsible
2012-04-05
Going through a divorce can be an extremely difficult time. The decision to finally end a marriage and move on usually comes after a lot of soul-searching. It is not easy to walk away from someone who has been such a major part of your life. The entire process can be a long, drawn-out affair that can be emotionally draining, and it may be tempting to try to get the divorce over as soon as possible to move on.
However, most people do not realize the severe economic challenges that may arise as a result of the divorce until it is too late. Whether it is a house, car or ...
