Abstract:

According to the era of millennial, the boon pester power as opposed to prevailing school of thought that have tended to prioritise parental perspectives, a bane in purchasing shopping things. Pester power in other words is a good-natured game between parent and child, opposing to the negative outcomes of a purchase encounter always suggested and nagged by their childrenthey may not otherwise. The paper identifies various dimensions, such as Source of information about new products, Reason for purchase request of the product by child, Child influence on family purchase, Type of pestering, Parents response to child pestering, Child’s reaction towards parents response as the prominent significant factors behind a powerful weapon pestering. The study has recognised that the children pestering strategy have influenced parents in purchasing lot of FMCG products along with their own alternatives for the family.

Abstract:

We use two experiments to investigate “illusory power transference,” in which individuals minimally associated with powerful others act as if they themselves are powerful outside the boundaries of the association. The experiments elicit this phenomenon through social comparison processes that result in individuals’ perceptions of their own power assimilating toward the power of the powerful other, which is driven by the motivation to characterize oneself as powerful. We demonstrate that men who have a tenuous association with a powerful other (versus a powerless or equal-power other) felt more powerful and were more optimistic, confident, and risk seeking, even though they could not leverage the associate’s power. Consistent with research suggesting that women are less motivated to characterize themselves as powerful, however, this effect did not emerge among women. A third experiment suggests that, besides underlying motivations, whether the association is cooperative or competitive determines if one’s sense of power is likely to assimilate to, or contrast away from, the associate’s level of power.

Abstract:

Abstract. This study aimed to replicate the intuitive retributivism hypothesis, according to which people’s punitive sentiments are predominantly driven by retributive concerns. Contrary to prior research that focuses on how people punish offenders, this study investigated how people punish individuals suspected of immoralities. Moreover, we manipulated a suspect’s power level (high/low/undefined) and stated contrasting hypotheses (the “power corrupts” approach vs. the “power leniency” approach) regarding the impact of power on punishment motives. Finally, we investigated the mediating role of recidivism and guilt likelihood in these effects. The results replicated the intuitive retributivism hypothesis and revealed the robustness of this effect. Moreover, in line with the “power corrupts” approach, we found that the role of utilitarian (but not retributive or restorative) motives is stronger in the punishment of powerful suspects as opposed to powerless ones. Unexpectedly, neither guilt likelihood nor recidivism of a suspect mediated the effects of power on punishment motives.

Abstract:

Empowering learners and using powerful techniques are prominent elements in the discourse of adult and vocational education. But what constitutes the elements of what might be considered as powerful teaching? This paper begins by examining the way educators talk about power and then proposes four elements that lie at the heart of powerful teaching; understanding how power dynamics intersect with adult educational approaches, supporting empowerment, helping learners understand how power works, and rendering teacher power transparent. The paper uses the work of Baptiste, Marcuse and Hooks to explore some of the problems involved in adult teachers attempting to work in the democratic manner endorsed by the adult education tradition. It concludes by acknowledging the practical and ontological contradictions of teachers trying to balance their prescriptive agendas with a learner-centered approach.

Abstract:

This introduction suggests that anthropology often assumes that the people anthropologists work with are relatively powerless. Due to this default, anthropologists tend to design their research and theorizing to reflect a relatively powerless other. We suggest that the accumulated scholarship on studying up, that is, studying those who structure the lives of many others, offers more accurate ways to theorize power and its exercise as partial and situated, as well as more plural and productive ways to imagine anthropological practice and ethics. We also suggest that this line of thinking gives us some ground to speak to the larger direction of the discipline.

Abstract:

This research examined whether feeling powerful can eliminate the deleterious effect of stereotype threat (i.e., concerns about confirming a negative self-relevant stereotype) on women’s math performance. In Experiments 1 and 2, priming women with high power buffered them from reduced math performance in response to stereotype threat instructions, whereas women in the low and control power conditions showed poorer math performance in response to threat. Experiment 3 found that working memory capacity is one mechanism through which power moderates the effect of threat on women’s math performance. In the low and control power conditions, women showed reduced working memory capacity in response to stereotype threat, accounting for threat’s effect on performance. In contrast, women in the high power condition did not show reductions in working memory capacity or math performance in response to threat. This work demonstrates that perceived power moderates stereotype threat–based performance effects and explains why this occurs.

AbstractA p-group is called powerful if every commutator is a product of pth powers when p is odd and a product of fourth powers when p=2. In the group algebra of a group G of p-power order over a finite field of characteristic p, the group of normalized units is always a p-group. We prove that it is never powerful except, of course, when G is abelian.

Abstract:

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 contains yet another assault on higher education in its unprecedented tax on private university endowment income. This paper argues, first, that this and other attacks should not be seen as anti-intellectual efforts to dismantle higher education but rather as intellectually elitist efforts to rid universities of certain programs and personnel and, second, that viewing these efforts as motivated primarily by racism and (hetero)sexism is an analytical and political mistake. Women’s, gender, and sexualities studies programs undermine basic assumptions that ground contemporary right-wing political and economic policy—namely, individualism and economism—by presenting empirical evidence and developing theoretical frameworks focused on historical formations of power networks that produce subjects, preferences, and systems of oppression. The main goal of the radical right is not to purge women and people of color from academia, but to prevent analysis and discussion that reveals the inadequacy of right-wing ontological commitments and neoliberal social theory.

Abstract:

In “The Institutional Foundations of Committee Power” (this Review, March 1987) Kenneth Shepsle and Barry Weingast made the case that congressional committees are powerful not so much because of members' deference to them as because of the committees' ex post veto, a potential negative committees might deliver, say, at the conference committee stage of lawmaking. But Keith Krehbiel argues that congressional committees have, in fact, never possessed an uncircumventable ex post veto and are very much constrained by their parent chambers. In response, Shepsle and Weingast defend their model of the foundations of committee power.

Abstract:

This study investigates team-teaching (TT) relationships between AETs (Assistant English Teachers) and JTEs (Japanese Teachers of English) focusing on power-sharing in Japanese high schools. From September 2003 to March 2004, a naturalistic case study was conducted with two TT pairs during bimonthly visits through class observation and individual interviews. Supplementary data were also collected by interviewing students. Research results revealed that the AETs were given full autonomy because of their language power, which caused the JTEs to become peripheral participants. This resulted in the JTEs’ dissatisfaction with their TT performance. Furthermore, the JTEs’ identity influenced by language power inequality was deeply involved in their peripheral participation, which was supported by the belief in the native speaker fallacy, the idea that NSs are automatically the best teachers of the language (Phillipson, 1992), at the educational, societal, and individual levels. 本研究は、日本の高校における日本人英語教師(JTE)と英語指導助手(AET) のティームティーチング(TT)における関係について、教師間の力配分に焦点を置き、調査することを目的とする。2003年9月から2004年３月まで、2組のTTペアを対象としたケーススタディーが実施され、月２回の訪問時に授業参観とTTペアへの個別インタビューが行われた。補足のデータとして、学生へのインタビューも併せて行われた。その結果、AETは高い英語力ゆえに、授業の自治権を完全に与えられている一方、JTEのTTへの参加は消極的となり、結果としてJTEはTTの出来栄えに対して不満を感じていたことが判明した。また、語学力の不均衡によって影響を受けたJTEのアイデンティティーが、JTEの消極的TT参加と密接に関わっており、このことは、教育界、社会、個人レベルに見られるネイティブスピーカー信仰（ネイティブスピーカーであれば自動的によい語学教師であるとする考え）が一因であることが示唆された。

Abstract:

This article discusses the relevance of discourse analytical approaches for a specific field of social inquiry in international political studies: the creation and transformation of international norms. It starts from the assumption that contemporary discourse scholarship in the discipline of International Relations is a vibrant yet still under-explored area of social constructivist research. The field is still characterized by a rather sharp rift between postmodern notions of discourse on the one hand, and more pragmatic, positivist studies on communicative rationality on the other. By exploring the transformation of powerful global discourses on childhood and children’s rights during the negotiations leading to the 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child, the article will argue that for a fuller understanding of such norm-changing events a two-dimensional perspective on discourse is essential which combines elements from both branches of IR discourse research. In discussing this case, the article will show that the concept of discourse can both serve to identify historical meaning-patterns and social conventions (in this case attached to the child and the phase of childhood) and, at the same time, highlight the real-time communicative processes and communicative strategies among a distinct set of policy-makers in the course of which such meaning conventions are transformed. Following the tradition of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), the approach stresses the value of incorporating the ‘social environment’ into discourse analysis, since it allows identifying specific sets of socially shared semantics within the institutional setting as well as to account for specific interpersonal dynamics and exclusionary practices that expand and transform these semantics.

Abstract:

This article inquires into the tension between power as restriction and power as empowerment, as investigated by means of performance in two works: aCORdo by Alice Ripoll and Azdora by Markus Öhrn. These works, which offer a glimpse of the possible shifts from ‘power over’ to ‘power to,’ are put into dialogue with feminist thinkers Luisa Muraro and Rosi Braidotti. Their concepts of authority as a way ‘to be powerful without the means of power’ and of potentia as ‘the capability of enduring and resisting’ are oriented to think power as oriented to the construction of possibilities and relationships. The two performances give to these concepts a body marked by a specific identity: the poor man of colour and the industrious housewife. Yet, rather than setting at the centre the bodies themselves, the works complexify the relationships around them. Through the theatre device, they flip around a set of relations between fixed identities and open them up to often unnoticed ways of performing power and authority, embed their transformation process in a radical relationality, and set the conditions for the experience of an affirmative potentia.

Abstract:

We conducted 2 studies to examine if status has varying effects on prosocial behavior for those at different levels of the power hierarchy. In Study 1 (N = 78), adults employed full-time in the USA responded to an online survey and the results showed that self-perceived power and status interacted to predict prosocial behavior. That is, lacking status led high-power, but not low-power, individuals to engage less in prosocial behavior. In Study 2 (N = 142), we orthogonally manipulated status and power and measured prosocial behavior. Once again, lacking status led to less helping behavior among high-power, but not low-power, participants. These findings show how power and status interact to influence interpersonal helping behavior. Implications for future research on social hierarchy and prosocial behavior are discussed.

Abstract:

Research has shown that people who feel powerful are more likely to act than those who feel powerless, whereas people who feel ambivalent are less likely to act than those whose reactions are univalent (entirely positive or entirely negative). But what happens when powerful people also are ambivalent? On the basis of the self-validation theory of judgment, we hypothesized that power and ambivalence would interact to predict individuals’ action. Because power can validate individuals’ reactions, we reasoned that feeling powerful strengthens whatever reactions people have during a decision. It can strengthen univalent reactions and increase action orientation, as shown in past research. Among people who hold an ambivalent judgment, however, those who feel powerful would be less action oriented than those who feel powerless. Two experiments provide evidence for this hypothesized interactive effect of power and ambivalence on individuals’ action tendencies during both positive decisions (promoting an employee; Experiment 1) and negative decisions (firing an employee; Experiment 2). In summary, when individuals’ reactions are ambivalent, power increases the likelihood of inaction.

Abstract:

We extend prior research on leader power by examining why and when leader referent and expert powers influence team members’ organizational citizenship behaviors directed at other individuals (OCBI) from the multilevel perspective. We propose that leader referent and expert power perceptions operate at both individual and team levels and lead to OCBI through distinct motivational mechanisms. Drawing upon social identity theory, we suggest that team-level leader referent and expert powers facilitate social identification as salient team features and in turn promote team members’ OCBI through collective team identification. On the other hand, at the individual level, leader referent and expert powers are experienced discretionarily and affect members’ OCBI through dyadic exchange relationships with a leader–member exchange (LMX) based on the reciprocity norm. Furthermore, collective team identification is hypothesized to moderate the relationship between LMX and OCBI. Findings from 465 employees in 80 teams show that team-level leader referent power enhances collective team identification and OCBI beyond expert power but not vice versa. At the individual level, both referent and expert powers have positive indirect impact on OCBI via LMX. The moderating effect of collective team identification is supported in that team members convert high-quality LMX into OCBI only when collective team identification is higher. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

Abstract:

Past social projection research has mainly focused on target characteristics as a moderator of projective effects. The current research considers the power of the perceiver and how it affects projection of competence and warmth. In three studies, participants first rated themselves on a list of traits/preferences, then performed a power manipulation task, and, finally, rated a target person on the same list. Studies 1 and 2 reveal that the effect of power on social projection is moderated by dimension of judgment: high-power/low-power participants project more on competence/warmth than low-power/high-power participants. A meta-analysis conducted on Studies 1, 2, 3, and two additional studies confirmed those results. Study 3 additionally shows that high power increases the salience of competence, whereas low power increases the salience of warmth. Implications for both the power and the social perception literatures are discussed.

Abstract:

Abstract. To directly examine why an individual’s capacity to influence others by providing valued resources (i.e., power) could decrease the concerns about negative evaluation from others (i.e., the fear of negative evaluation, FNE) in daily life, two studies were conducted. Results found that perceived power (Study 1) was associated with lower FNE, and manipulating power levels (Study 2) caused less FNE. Furthermore, results indicate that personal control belief mediated this link. These findings provide empirical evidence of the underlying mechanism of the effect of power on reducing FNE. The current research contributes significantly because it sheds light on how power transferred from a person’s “external world” to their “internal world” (i.e., personal control belief) can influence their cognition and behavior.

Abstract:

The paper deals with the issues of load balancing in the shop power supply system containing powerful electrothermal installations. There is a cyclical change in load parameters with significant variations in current and power factor during operating multi-section induction installations of methodical action. The largest deviations of these parameters occur in transient modes at heater start or at changing the billets nomenclature. It is shown that when the load changes in starting modes, an increase in power and a decrease in the power factor can lead to unacceptable current overloads of the power supply. Correction during start-up of section currents and power factor allows us to reduce current fluctuations, to provide a smoother power diagram and eliminate power supply overload. It is possible to implement current and power factor correction using semiconductor frequency converters in each section. This approach prevents decreasing the voltage quality indicators and reduces possible deviations of the billets temperature distribution. The parameters of the heater sections in transient modes are calculated. The ranges of power, voltage, current and frequency variation are determined, corresponding to the capabilities of semiconductor frequency converters used in these installations. The proposed start-up algorithm provides the smallest of all possible power fluctuations.

“Today I met my role model,” tweeted climate change activist Greta Thunberg on 25 February 2020, captioning a picture of herself with girls’ education activist Malala Yousafzai, who also tweeted the picture, proclaiming that Greta was “the only friend I would skip school for.” The proclamations of mutual admiration illustrate a form of solidarity between the two most famous girl activists, who are often pointed to as examples of the power of the individual girl activist in spite of their intentionally collective approaches that connect young activists and civil society organizations around the world. These girl activists have garnered worldwide attention for their causes but have also been subject to problematic media representations that elevate voices of privilege and/or focus on girl activists as exceptional individuals (Gordon and Taft 2010; Hesford 2014), often obscuring the movements behind them. For this reason, this special issue explores activism networks by, for, and with girls and young women, examining and emphasizing girls’ activism in collective and collaborative spaces.

Abstract. Only little is known about the underpinning psychological processes that determine medical choices. Across four studies, we establish that conspiracy mentality predicts a preference for alternative over biomedical therapies. Study 1a (N = 392) and 1b (N = 204) provide correlational support, Study 2 (N = 185) experimentally tested the role of power: People who endorsed a conspiracy mentality perceived a drug more positively if its approval was supported by a powerless (vs. powerful) agent. Study 3 (N = 239) again showed a moderating effect of power and conspiracy mentality on drug evaluation by comparing analytic versus holistic approaches. These findings point to the consequences of conspiracy mentality for health behavior and prevention programs.

Abstract:

The expediency of using a power active filter in the mode of reactive power compensation of the supply network for the powerful sounding pulses shaper power supply system of the Institute of ionosphere NAS and MES of Ukraine is shown. An analysis of the literature has been carried out, which shows the effectiveness of solving the problem of reactive power compensation, filtering higher harmonics of the power supply network using active filtering of higher harmonics of current or voltage using an additional energy source to obtain a compensating signal in the form of current or voltage. The choice of the power circuit for constructing a power active filter has been made. A voltage inverter on IGBT transistors is used as a power active filter. The basic principles of operation of the power active filter control system are described, which are based on the p-q theory of power and provide for the calculation of instantaneous values of the task currents for each phase of a three-phase power supply system. The work of the Matlab-model of the power supply system of the shaper is shown, the oscillograms of the main energy characteristics of the shaper are given. As a result of using a power active filter, the current of the supply network becomes close to sinusoidal, and the power factor tends to 1. A positive effect on the efficiency of the shaper when the power active filter is included in the supply network is noted, which is due to the efficiency of compensation of the reactive power consumed by the shaper from the supply network. The simulation results are presented, in particular, graphs of reactive power change at the point of connecting the power active filter to the supply network, at different levels of reactive power consumption by the shaper. The results obtained confirmed the possibility of using a power active filter in the mode of reactive power compensation of the supply network when solving the problems of improving the electromagnetic compatibility of powerful sounding pulses shapers with the supply network, reducing losses and increasing the reliability of the shapers. Keywords: active power filter, reactive power control, control systems

Abstract:

This article aims to examine the experiences of pupils and professionals who are affected by permanent exclusion (what used to be called being expelled) from school. An ethnographic study conducted during the author's employment as a Pupil Support Officer within secondary schools and the children's services department of an urban local authority in England explores the idea that professionals may be forced to make inequitable decisions about including or excluding pupils in the face of powerful competition between the politically unchallengeable concepts of tolerance, inclusivity, attainment, and choice. The article argues that the tensions of multi-agency working are focused within what will be described as the contested space of the young person's ‘extended body’. However, whilst the contested nature of this space renders it vulnerable to negative description and to the biased judgements of authoritarian power, it also offers itself as a space for emancipatory self description by the young person and for the expression of agency on the part of those professionals working for social justice.

Abstract:

Abstract Short answer is yes. As it is stated in a NATO reference hybrid warfare actions can be applied to the full DIMEFIL (Diplomatic, Information, Military, Economic, Financial, Intelligence, Legal) spectrum. This paper will demonstrate that Russia has significant elements which makes this country very well suited for this type of war and gives her some advantages on all DIMEFIL areas. In my view those elements are: current leadership, history and political mentality, size and geography, economic and financial power and military power.

Abstract:

We present the results from multiwavelength campaigns of three powerful gamma-ray quasars, PKS 1510-089, RBS 315 and Swift J0746.3+2548, recently organized with Suzaku. The Suzaku observation provided one of the highest S/N X-ray spectra ever reported between 0.3 and 50 keV. For these quasars, the X-ray spectrum is well represented by an extremely hard power-law with photon index Γ ≃ 1.2, but is augmented by an additional soft component apparently below 1 keV for PKS 1510-089, whereas a strong deficit of soft photons is observed in RBS 315. We model the broadband spectra of these powerful quasars and argue that the power of the jet is dominated by protons but with the number of electrons/positrons exceeding the number of protons by a factor ≃ 10. We also argue that an extremely hard X-ray spectra may result from a double power-law form of the injected electrons, with the break energy γ br ≃ 1000 corresponding to the anticipated threshold of diffusive shock acceleration.

The paper proposes to simulate a random variability of the nonlinear load in the form of probabilistic characteristics of the amplitudes of harmonic components of powers. The influence of the variability of distribution of amplitude values of the power harmonics on the load flow in the network, power losses and maximum power transmission in lines is studied. The results of design experiments for one of distribution networks of Azerbaijan power system, feeding the non-linear load, are given.

Abstract:

We examine whether industry product market conditions are important in assessing the benefits and costs of chief executive officer (CEO) power. We find that firms are more likely to have powerful CEOs in high demand product markets where firms are facing entry threats. In these markets, investors react favorably to announcements granting more power to CEOs, and CEO power is associated with higher market value, sales growth, investment, advertising, and the introduction of more new products. Our results remain significant when addressing the endogeneity of CEO power by instrumenting CEO power with past non-CEO executive and director sudden deaths.

Abstract:

In 2018, the global #MeToo movement turned its attention to the aid industry, after scandals at Oxfam and Save the Children highlighted the sexual harassment, abuse and assault prevalent in the sector. This article explores #MeToo in the context of the aid industry (informally known by many participants as #AidToo), particularly within a British context. The article argues that the aid industry exists in a historical, social and political space that is particularly volatile. The abusive behaviour of men in the sector is shaped and enabled by race, class and gender inequalities, which undermine many of the stated aims of international aid programmes. The humanitarian and development aid sector will not eradicate this behaviour until it recognises how it is enabled and encouraged by these inequalities. The article argues that the aid sector needs to develop an ethical code of conduct around sexual relationships, harassment and abuse that recognises power inequalities within the sector and seeks to protect vulnerable individuals.

Abstract:

In this article the authors identify and discuss what they consider to be some of the underlying arguments and approaches currently promulgated in teaching and training in relation to abuse. Their focus is the assumption that all violence is linked, especially the belief that those who harm animals will harm people. This under-theorised but overtly applied phenomenon, referred to as ‘the links’, is increasingly evident on both sides of the Atlantic where it is supported and promoted by powerful non-governmental organisations. The authors draw attention to current teaching (and practice) in this area, which they consider to be flawed as well as unethical and unjust. They critique both the cycles of abuse models of the past and more recent manifestations - for example, retrospective constructions of profiles of ‘abusers’, dubious professional practice, and infringements of human rights purportedly supported by ‘science’. While their argument is initially theoretical, they draw on a focused study of a conference they both attended, which provided the opportunity for a limited linguistic and symbolic analysis. This illustrates the way in which the links idea is spread, supported by the institutional and moral power of significant agencies and organisations that are arguably operating as a ‘community of practice’.

Abstract:

AbstractThe development of laser action at wavelengths shorter than those of current X-ray lasers is being investigated along two fronts. In the first case, we are exploring the possibilities for laser action at 15.4 nm in Li-like AIXI and 12.9 nm in Li-like SiXII in a magnetically confined recombining plasma. Previous work on hydrogen-like carbon, CVI, led to lasing action at 18.2 nm. Recently, this has been applied to microscopy and first results from a soft X-ray laser microscope are presented. A new technique to generate shorter wavelength X-ray lasing involves the interaction of a high power laser with a preformed plasma. The Powerful Picosecond Laser (PP-Laser) System with an output power level of 20-30 GW and focussed power density of 1016- 1017W/cm2has recently become operational. The spectra of highly ionized atoms in the XUV region were recorded on a high resolution grazing incidence spectrometer for the PP-Laser beam interacting with different solid targets.

Abstract:

Electrical energy from power plants to industrial facilities and settlements is mostly transmitted by wire-connected air or underground lines covering vast territories. However, in some rare cases there is a need for wireless transmission of electrical power to objects located in hard-to-reach areas. The problem of wireless transmission of electrical energy will become especially urgent as space electric power industry based on the placement of solar power plants in outer space is being developed. In this regard, several countries are conducting studies on the problem of electrical energy transmission using both laser and microwave radiation. The fundamentals of building systems for wireless transmission of electrical energy over short distances using microwave radiation are considered. Two options for constructing such systems are analyzed and calculated: using parabolic antennas and using phased array antennas. For both options the main parameters of systems for wireless transmission of electrical energy at 200 m were calculated. In the first case, powerful microwave devices are used: a magnetron or a direct-flight klystron; in the second case, microwave powerful field-effect transistors. For the second option the summation of the powers of microwave generators by means of their mutual synchronization is proposed.

Abstract:

The widespread applying of electrical grids with voltage classes 330 and 750 kV with powerful units of nuclear and heat power plants creates a set of problems with normal modes ensuring in the Ukrainian energy system. Due to sufficiently great transverse capacitance of such overhead lines, significant amounts of reactive power excess are possible in the system. This phenomenon manifests itself especially in the load reduction hours in the power system through the visible voltage levels deviation at the energy-generating nodes in an upward direction. The application of asynchronized turbogenerators with the ability to work in asynchronous mode could solve the problem of reactive power excesses in the energy-generating nodes during load reduction hours in the power system due to their possibility of deep reactive power consumption. The paper presents the calculated results of the asynchronous modes coordinates for an asynchronized turbogenerator with a capacity 1000 MW based on the parameters of the equivalent circuit, taking into account possible generator stator voltage deviations within ±10%. The influence of voltage deviations on the asynchronous modes coordinates is shown. Due to the obtained characteristics, it is possible to perform engineering estimations of the possible asynchronous mode applying for the asynchronized generator under conditions of nuclear and thermal power plants and taking into account possible voltage deviations.
