Openness to experience

The typical person is influenced by both an optimistic bias and an illusion of control (Frewer et al., 1994). When these are lost or compromised, panic can occur. While panic disorder can afflict an individual, panic also occurs as a collective phenomena. While it has been thought that emotional instability will lead some people to be more likely to panic, this is not always found. However, people who are emotionally unstable are more likely to attach importance to information provided during the crises than more emotionally stable individuals (Verbeke and Van Kenhove, 2002). Furthermore, some people are more likely to believe they are sick or affected than others. Feldman et al. (1999) examined the panic predisposition of people based on their classification by the big five personality factors. People were inoculated with a common cold virus, and those who were classified as neurotic were more likely to report unfounded illness and more symptoms than other groups. In contrast to this, openness to experience was associated with reporting unfounded symptoms in those with verifiable colds, whereas conscientiousness was associated with reporting unfounded illness in those who were not ill (Feldman et al, 1999). [Pg.122]

In the peak experience that MMDA may elicit, it is possible to speak of both individuality and dissolution, but these are blended into a quite new totality. Dissolution is here expressed in the openness to experience, a willingness to hold no preference individuality, on the other hand, is implied in the absence of depersonalization phenomena, and in the fact that the subject is concerned with the everyday world of persons, objects, and relationships. [Pg.400]

The best scientist is open to experience and begins with romance—the idea that anything is possible. [Pg.353]

In Eqs. (4)-(10), the electrical state of the interface where the reaction in Eq. (1) occurs is evaluated on an operative or A0 scale of potential, which is theoretically correct. However, the GPD is not open to experi-... [Pg.7]

Many transition metal systems are open-shell systems. Due to the presence of low-energy excited states, it is very common to experience problems with spin contamination of unrestricted wave functions. Quite often, spin projection and annihilation techniques are not sufficient to correct the large amount of spin contamination. Because of this, restricted open-shell calculations are more reliable than unrestricted calculations for metal system. Spin contamination is discussed in Chapter 27. [Pg.288]

The experiments show that it is impossible to make a simple design of the opening to improve the air quality in the room. A proper solution should have been chosen in the design phase ot the machine. It would, for example, be obvious to reverse the direction of the airflow and extract the air from the room through the machine. [Pg.1191]

Experience in the automotive industry is obviously open to interpretation. This does not mean that only auditors who have worked in CM, Ford, BMW, etc. will be eligible. Auditors with Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers to the QEMs will also be eligible as will those who have worked for industries that produce products or materials used by the automotive industry. Therefore if an auditor has worked in the steel industry, electronics industry, or other manufacturing industry, such experience could be acceptable. During... [Pg.67]

A simple experiment with a coffee-cup calorimeter shows that when one gram of NH4N03 dissolves, fraction = 351 J. The calorimeter is open to the atmosphere, the pressure is constant, and... [Pg.204]

In the combustion reaction as carried out in the calorimeter of Figure 7-2, the volume of the system is kept constant and pressure may change because the reaction chamber is sealed. In the laboratory experiments you have conducted, you kept the pressure constant by leaving the system open to the surroundings. In such an experiment, the volume may change. There is a small difference between these two types of measurements. The difference arises from the energy used when a system expands against the pressure of the atmosphere. In a constant volume calorimeter, there is no such expansion hence, this contribution to the reaction heat is not present. Experiments show that this difference is usually small. However, the symbol AH represents the heat effect that accompanies a chemical reaction carried out at constant pressure—the condition we usually have when the reaction occurs in an open beaker. [Pg.112]

The thermodynamic point of view developed in this review and in our original works with regard to the behavior of SAH in laboratory experiments and in soil models can pave, in our opinion, the most rational way for achieving the optimal results. Based on the existing theory of network polymers, this concept is undoubtedly open to further improvement that would expand its prognostic potentialities. [Pg.131]

However, with the advent of the superacid solvents, a multitude of long-lived stable carbonium ions have been made available for extended study. Clearly, then, the door is open to quantum 5ueld determinations, kinetic treatment, studies on the effects of various solvents and sensitizers and quenching experiments (compare the very recent study by Bethell and Clare, 1972). In short, the photochemistry of carbonium ions is still in its infancy and there is a wealth of information yet to be gained. [Pg.151]

All of the schemes were open to non-managers. Management or business experience was needed for the adult schemes, but it was made dear this did not have to be within BT or a large business. Non-managers made up 60 per cent of the mentors, but nearly ail of these were in Roots Wings. [Pg.61]

Carved wooden bears in all shapes and sizes overwhelmed Yngve and me at our visit to Noboribetsu in 1976. There was an afternoon to spare before the opening of the "Oji International Seminar on Theories and Ab Initio Computations of Molecular Electronic Structure" at Tomakomai, Hokkaido in the fall of 1976 so we wished to experience the hot springs. The train left us with a choice of buses, the desdnations of which were clearly indicated in Japanese writing. We found the right one and came to a city in a canyon where the sulfur fumes and hot water let themselves out. The kind reception by Kimio Ohno and Fukashi Sasaki at Hokkaido University remains a vivid memory. [Pg.15]
