    PERSONALITY, INTEGRITY, AND WHITE COLLAR CRIME: A CONSTRUCT VALIDITY STUDY (1993)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Personnel psychology 46 (1993), S. 0

    Topics: Psychology
    Notes: This study examined the construct validity of personality scales, a personality-based integrity test, and homogenous biodata scales as reflected in their ability to discriminate white collar criminals from other white collar employees. The sample included 365 prison inmates incarcerated in 23 federal correctional institutions for white collar offenses, and 344 individuals employed in upper-level positions of authority. A cross-validated linear discriminant function (DF) based on 16 variables selected in the developmental sample produced a large difference (1.83 standard deviation units) between the two sample groups. The pattern of score differences revealed the offenders as having greater tendencies toward irresponsibility, lack of dependability, and disregard of rules and social norms. This study indicates that there are large and measurable psychological differences between white collar offenders and nonoffenders, and that the major construct underlying these differences is “social conscientiousness.” The best measure of this difference was a personality-based integrity test.

    Card shuffling and a transformation on S n (1992)

    Notes: Summary We consider two card shuffling schemes. The first, which has appeared in the literature previously ([G], [RB], [T]), is as follows: start with a deck ofn cards, and pick a random tuplet ∈ { 1, 2, ⋯, n} n ; interchange cards 1 andt 1, then interchange cards 2 andt 2, etc. The second scheme, which can be viewed as a transformation on the symmetric groupS n , is given by the restriction of the former shuffling scheme to tuplest which form a permutation of {1, 2,⋯,n}. We determine the bias of each of these shuffling schemes with respect to the sets of transpositions and derangements, and the expected number of fixed points of a permutation generated by each of these shuffling schemes. For the latter scheme we prove combinatorially that the permutation which arises with the highest probability is the identity. The same question is open for the former scheme. We refute a candidate answer suggested by numerical evidence [RB].

    Notes: Abstract (Z,Z,Z)-3,6,9-nonadecatriene (Z3,Z6,Z9–19Hy) and (Z,Z)-3,9-cis-6,7-epoxy-nonadecadiene (Z3,Z9-cis-6,7-epo-19Hy) were identified in pheromone gland extracts from femaleErannis defoliaria. The two components were found in a 1∶3 ratio, with the main component,Z3,Z9-cis-6,7-epo-19Hy present at an amount of about 1.5 ng per female. The components were identified by means of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, gas chromatography-electroantennography and gas chromatography-single sensillum recordings. Single sensillum measurements on the male antenna showed two physiological types of sensilla. One type was characterized by a large spike amplitude cell responding toZ3,Z9-cis-6,7-epoxy-19Hy and a small spike amplitude cell responding toZ3,Z6,Z9–19Hy. A second type responded only with a large spike amplitude cell to the epoxide, and this cell was inhibited by the triene. Of the two pheromone components, the epoxide gave the higher response in the EAG tests. Preliminary field tests support the identification of the pheromone components. The epoxide was also found to be present in the extract of the pheromone gland ofColotois pennaria, and males ofC. pennaria andAgriopis marginaria were trapped by the mixture of the identified compounds.

    Discrete Transparent Boundary Conditions for the Numerical Solution of Fresnel's Equation. (1993)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-07-07
    Description: The paper presents a construction scheme of deriving transparent , i. e. reflection-free, boundary conditions for the numerical solution of Fresnel's equation (being formally equivalent to Schrödinger's equation). These boundary conditions appear to be of a nonlocal Cauchy type. As it turns out, each kind of linear implicit discretization induces its own discrete transparent boundary conditions.

    An Adaptive Approach to the Numerical Solution of Fresnel's Wave Equation. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-07-07
    Description: An adaptive approach to the numerical solution of the wave propagation in integrated optics devices with 1D cross sections is described. First, Fresnel's approximation of the exact wave equation resulting from Maxwell's equations is considered. A criterion to estimate the validity of this approximation is derived. Fresnel's wave equation being formally equivalent to Schroedinger's equation uniquely defines an initial-boundary-value problem, which is solved numerically by a stepwise calculation of the propagating field. Discretization in longitudinal direction first with stepsize control leads to a stationary subproblem for the transversal field distribution, which is then handled by an adaptive finite element method. Thus full adaptivity of the algorithm is realized. The numerical examples are concentrated on taper structures playing an essential role in integrated optics devices for telecommunication systems.
