Abstract:

AbstractThis article seeks to defend the law of unjust enrichment against the recent influential attacks of Robert Stevens (“The Unjust Enrichment Disaster” (2018) 134 LQR 574) and Lionel Smith (“Restitution: A New Start?” in Devonshire and Havelock, The Impact of Equity and Restitution in Commerce (2018), ch. 5). A central argument here put forward is that there is a law of unjust enrichment, embodying a cause of action in unjust enrichment, which unites what Stevens and Smith see as disparate categories. A linked but separate argument is that, within the central area of unjust enrichment, Stevens is incorrect to regard the defendant's acceptance of performance as being necessary to trigger restitution albeit that acceptance may be relevant in establishing that the defendant has been enriched. A further, and more specific, argument is that, with great respect, the overruling, as a matter of principle, of Sempra Metals Ltd. v IRC [2007] UKHL 34, [2008] 1 A.C. 561, by the Supreme Court in Prudential Assurance Ltd. v HMRC [2018] UKSC 39, [2018] 3 WLR 652, seems unfortunate and appears to have been influenced by Stevens's excessively narrow approach to the meaning of “at the expense of”.

Abstract:

Born at Renfrew on 8 October 1900, Thomas Stevens Stevens (‘TSS’) was the only child of John and Jane Stevens. His father, a draughtsman and engineer, was production director of William Simons and Company Ltd of Renfrew, shipbuilders specializing in dredger construction. Before her marriage in 1898, his mother Jane (née Irving) was a schoolteacher. His upbringing was typically middle-class, and both parents gave every encouragement for their son to study. However, as a delicate asthmatic youngster Tom's early education was given, until the age of eight, at home by his mother—a fact held by many to be responsible for the seeds that brought forth his great love of language and his sensitive and wide-ranging intellect. Thereafter he attended Paisley Grammar School (1909–15) and the Glasgow Academy (1915–17). At Paisley Grammar School his attention was drawn by Joseph Towers, a teacher of English, and at the Glasgow Academy he delighted in the sardonic humour of G.L. Moffatt, who taught mathematics. Physics and chemistry had nevertheless captured his imagination and in the Academy he enjoyed the extensive opportunities that were provided for practical chemistry. It was a love and a boyish enthusiasm that he retained and continued to practise throughout his professional career. In a popular lecture that he gave in the 1950s, ‘The anatomy of the chemist’, Tommy includes the account given by the famous American teacher, Ira Remsen, of the most impressive experiment he had ever performed: ‘nitric acid acts upon copper’. The story ends, ‘… I drew my fingers across my trousers and another fact was discovered. Nitric acid acts on trousers…’. With its smells, fizzes and bangs it is surely a portrait of the young Stevens himself.

The adjective ⋯μøιμ⋯τωρ occurs, so far as our evidence goes, twice in Greek literature: in Aeschylus' Herakleidai (fr. 73b.4 Radt) and in Euripides' Andromache (466). And the ancient authorities are unanimous that it means, in the words of P. T. Stevens, ‘sons of the same father by different mothers, i.e. half-brothers’.

Abstract:

This research paper explores the top ten CSR-contributing companies in India and their contributions toward environmental sustainability. The study analyzes the CSR spending patterns of these companies and the percentage of their CSR funds directed toward environmental sustainability. The results indicate a significant variation in CSR spending and contribution towards environmental sustainability among the top ten companies. Companies like Wipro Ltd, ITC Ltd, and Infosys Ltd have directed a considerable percentage of their CSR funds toward environmental sustainability. On the other hand, companies like Tata Consultancy Services Ltd, Tata Sons Private Ltd, and Indian Oil Corporation Ltd did not contribute to environmental sustainability, despite significant CSR spending. The findings suggest that there is a need for companies to prioritize environmental sustainability in their CSR activities, given the current environmental challenges faced by the country. The study recommends that companies should adopt sustainable practices and invests more in environmentally sustainable CSR initiatives to achieve a balance between economic development and environmental conservation.

Abstract:

FOR many years the problem of delay has plagued English civil proceedings. The main instrument used to counter it has been the power to strike out claims on the basis of “want of prosecution” (Allen v. Sir Alfred McAlpine & Sons Ltd. [1968] 2 Q.B. 229, C.A.; Birkett v. James [1978] A.C. 297, H.L.). But, notoriously, this doctrine long ago lost its snap. Now the Court of Appeal in Securum Finance Ltd. v. Ashton [2000] 3 W.L.R. 1400 has sharpened the doctrine’s bite, or at least lengthened its leash, by deciding that this power of dismissal extends to claims which are not yet statute barred.

We suggest that the description by Cramer et al. (2012) of traditional models of personality structure does not perfectly reflect the models actually endorsed by researchers. Personality researchers assume that many variables will have considerable secondary loadings and that the major personality factors will not account for all of the covariation among those variables. A model that includes common factors provides a more parsimonious explanation of covariation among personality variables than does a model consisting of network links only.

Abstract:

Comparative personality research in human and nonhuman species advances many areas of empirical and theoretical research. The methodological foundations underlying these attempts to explain personality, however, remain an unpopular and often ignored topic. The target paper and this rejoinder explore three methodological core issues in the philosophy of science for comparative personality research: Conceptualising personality variation, identifying domains of variation and measuring variation. Clear distinctions among these issues may help to avoid misunderstandings among different disciplines concerned with personality. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:

The present research reports the results of three studies showing that individuals with a fragile self–concept in the domain of performance are particularly vulnerable to stereotype threat effects. Specifically, women who explicitly described themselves as rather mathematical but whose implicit self–concepts contradicted these claims were vulnerable to stereotype threat effects on mathematical performance. This effect was robust across three studies, independent of the subtleness or content of the stereotype threat manipulation. Additionally, it was shown that the effect was mediated by anxious worrying (Study 3). Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:

It is hard to judge the potential usefulness of a network approach to personality research because Cramer et al. (2012) mix up applications to one individual, inter–individual differences and intra–individual processes. From each perspective, the network units, their associations and causal interpretations of such associations have a completely different meaning, and it depends on the particular perspective, the level of aggregation and whether one wants to model measurement error whether latent variables have a place in network models in personality research.

Abstract:

Conceiving personality as a network provides an interesting theoretical framework and a promising methodological perspective. The application of network analysis to personality psychology however is not straightforward, and some issues require careful consideration. We argue that the definition of components within networks cannot be limited to single items, and more work is needed to reflect the inherently hierarchical and indefinite nature of components. Additionally, we argue that formal empirical indexes must be clearly defined and consistently used to describe properties of personality networks. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:

We note that network analysis provides some new opportunities but also has some limitations: (i) network analysis relies on observed measures such as single items or scale scores; (ii) it is a descriptive method and, as such, cannot test causal hypotheses; and (iii) it does not test the influence of outside forces on the network, such as dispositional influences on behaviour. We recommend structural equation modelling as a superior method that overcomes limitations of exploratory factor analysis and network analysis. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:

The network perspective represents a novel contribution to personality theory by conceptualising personality traits as emerging from the mutual dependencies between fundamental and causal affective, behavioural, and cognitive components. We argue that incorporating a more nuanced biological and developmental perspective to causality and a more precise approach to affective, behavioural, cognitive and motivational components may serve to enrich the network perspective. Although the graphical approach to modelling personality is aesthetically pleasing, analytic techniques are not yet available to put network models to the (quantitative) test.

Full text

Abstract:

In two German samples we investigated whether three major personality prototypes (resilient, overcontrolled, and undercontrolled) can be replicated across different Big Five instruments (NEO‐FFI and NEO‐PI‐R), and whether they can be differentiated into replicable subtypes. For prototypes and subtypes, replicability within and consistency across samples was quantitatively measured. Three replicable prototypes were confirmed, but only two replicable resilient subtypes (well adjusted and assertive) were found. It is concluded that the search for a hierarchical taxonomy of people will require more investigation. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:

The dot probe task is a widely used measure of attention allocation to threatening stimuli. The present two studies examine the reliability of different versions of this task using words as well as pictures as stimulus material. Estimates of both internal consistency and retest reliability over one week lead to the conclusion that the dot probe task is a completely unreliable measure of attentional allocation in non‐clinical samples. This unreliability may explain the inconsistent findings for the dot probe task as reported in the literature. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:

Gray (1987) proposed two systems that underlie much of our behaviour and personality. One system relates to avoidance or withdrawal behaviour, called the Behavioural Inhibition System (BIS), whereas the other system relates to approach behaviour, called the Behavioural Approach System (BAS). In two samples, it was investigated whether individual differences in surface of personality as described by the Big Five can be explained by BIS/BAS. Neuroticism and Extraversion could be explained well by BIS/BAS, but also for Agreeableness and Conscientiousness consistent findings were obtained. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:

National character stereotypes are widely shared, but do not reflect assessed levels of personality traits. In this article we present data illustrating the divergence of stereotypes and assessed personality traits in North and South Italy, test hypotheses about the associations of temperature and national wealth with national character stereotypes in 49 cultures, and explore possible links to national values and beliefs. Results suggest that warmth and wealth are common determinants of national stereotypes, but that there are also idiosyncratic influences on the perceptions of individual nations.
