A global assemblage of regional prescribed burn records — GlobalRx
Hsu, A.; Jones, M.W.; Thurgood, J.R.; Smith, A.J.P.; Carmenta, R.; Abatzoglou, J.T.; Anderson, L.O.; Clarke, H.; Doerr, S.H.; Fernandes, P.M.Prescribed burning (RxB) is a land management tool used widely for reducing wildfire hazard, restoring biodiversity, and managing natural resources. However, RxB can only be carried out safely and effectively under certain seasonal or weather conditions. Under climate change, shifts in the frequency and timing of these weather conditions are expected but analyses of climate change impacts have been restricted t...
Agentic collective narcissism and communal collective narcissism: Do they predi...
Zemojtel-Piotrowska, M.; Sawicki, A.; Piotrowski, J.; Lifshin, U.; Kretchner, M.; Skowronski, J. J.; Sedikides, C.; Jonason, P. K.; Adamovic, M.In a multinational study (61 countries; N = 15,039), we examined how collective narcissists, both agentic (ACN) and communal (CCN), reacted cognitively (through endorsement of unfounded conspiracy and health beliefs) and behaviorally (via prevention, hoarding, and prosociality) to the pandemic. Higher ACN and CCN predicted greater endorsement of COVID-19 unfounded beliefs and higher likelihood of having recentl...
Happiness maximization is a WEIRD way of living
Kuba, K.; Kostoula, O.; van Tilburg, W. A. P.; Mosca, O.; Lee, J. H.; Maricchiolo, F.; Kosiarczyk, A.; Kocimska-Bortnowska, A.; Torres, C.; Hitokoto, H.Psychological science tends to treat subjective well-being and happiness synonymously. We start from the assumption that subjective well-being is more than being happy to ask the fundamental question: What is the ideal level of happiness? From a cross-cultural perspective, we propose that the idealization of attaining maximum levels of happiness may be especially characteristic of Western, educated, industrial,...
The role of cultural heterogeneity in strengthening the link between family rel...
Li, L. M. W.; Lun, V. M.-C.; Bond, M. H.; Yeung, J. C.; Igou, E. R.; Haas, B. W.; Stoyanova, S.; Maricchiolo, F.; Zelenski, J. M.; Vauclair, C.-M.We argue that the importance of family relationships for individual well-being varies across societies as a function of a society’s degree of cultural heterogeneity. To examine the role of family relationships, we analyzed the responses from 13,009 participants in 50 societies on their life satisfaction across societies varying in their levels of historical and contemporary cultural heterogeneity. Such heteroge...
Grandiose narcissism, unfounded beliefs, and behavioral reactions during the CO...
Zemojtel-Piotrowska, M.; Sawicki, A.; Piotrowski, J.; Lifshin, U.; Kretchner, M.; Skowronski, J. J.; Sedikides, C.; Jonason, P. K.; Adamovic, M.A theoretical perspective on grandiose narcissism suggests four forms of it (sanctity, admiration, heroism, rivalry) and states that these forms conduce to different ways of thinking and acting. Guided by this perspective, we examined in a multinational and multicultural study (61 countries; N = 15,039) how narcissism forms are linked to cognitions and behaviors prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic. As expected, d...
Family first: Evidence of consistency and variation in the value of family vers...
Kuba, K.; Yeung, J. C.; Haas, B. W.; van Osch, Y.; Kosiarczyk, A.; Kocimska-Zych, A.; Torres, T.; Selim, H. A.; Zelenski, J. M.; Bond, M. H.; Park, J.People care about their own well-being and about the well-being of their families. It is currently, however, unknown how much people tend to value their own versus their family’s well-being. A recent study documented that people value family happiness over personal happiness across four cultures. In this study, we sought to replicate this finding across a larger sample size (N = 12,819) and a greater number of ...
Search for supersymmetry with gauge-mediated breaking in diphoton events at D0
Abazov, V. M.; Abbott, B.; Abolins, M.; Acharya, B. S.; Adams, D. L.; Adams, M.; Adams, T.; Agelou, M.; Agram, J. L.; Ahmed, S. N.; Ahn, S. H.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:57:01Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-02-04; We report the results of a search for supersymmetry (SUSY) with gauge-mediated breaking in the missing transverse energy distribution of inclusive diphoton events using 263 pb-1 of data collected by the DO experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider in 2002-2004. No excess is observed above the backgro...
Measurement of the Bs0 lifetime in the exclusive decay channel Bs0 → J/ψφ
Abazov, V. M.; Abbott, B.; Abolins, M.; Acharya, B. S.; Adams, D. L.; Adams, M.; Adams, T.; Agelou, M.; Agram, J. L.; Ahmed, S. N.; Ahn, S. H.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:57:30Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2005-02-04; Using the exclusive decay Bs0 → J/ψ (μ+μ-)φ (K+K-), we report the most precise single measurement of the Bs0 lifetime. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of approximately 220 pb-1 collected with the DO detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider in 2002-2004. We reconstruct 337 signa...
Measurement of the Λ b 0 lifetime in the decay Λ b 0 → J/ψΛ 0 with the D0 detector

The analysis is based on approximately 250 pb -1 of data r...
