    Social Preference, Institution, and Distribution: An Experimental and Philosophical Approach.Natsuka Tokumaru - 2016 - Singapore: Imprint: Springer.
    This is the first book to examine behavioral theories on social preference from institutional and philosophical perspectives using economic experiments. The experimental method in economics has challenged central behavioral assumptions based on rationality and selfishness, proposing empirical evidence that not only profit seeking but also social preferences matter in individuals' decision making. By performing distribution experiments in institutional contexts, the author extends assumptions about human behavior to understand actual social economy. The book also aims to enrich behavioral theories of economics (...)

    Evolution of adaptive immunity: Implications of a third lymphocyte lineage in lampreys.Natsuko Kishishita & Fumikiyo Nagawa - 2014 - Bioessays 36 (3):244-250.
    An alternative antigen receptor, named the variable lymphocyte receptor (VLR), was first identified in lampreys in 2004. Since then, the mechanism of VLR diversification via somatic gene assembly and the function of VLR‐expressing lymphocytes have been the subject of much research. VLRs comprise leucine‐rich repeat (LRR) motifs and are found only in the most phylogenetically distant vertebrates from mammals, lampreys, and hagfish. Previous reports showed that VLRA and VLRB are reciprocally expressed by lymphocytes that resemble T‐ and B cells; however, (...)

    A construction approach to innovative verbs in Japanese.Natsuko Tsujimura & Stuart Davis - 2011 - Cognitive Linguistics 22 (4):799-825.
    Innovative verbs in Japanese are formed from nouns of various sources including loanwords, Sino-Japanese nouns, mimetics, and proper names. Regardless of their different origin, these innovative denominal verbs exhibit a collection of intriguing properties, ranging from phonological, morphological, to semantic and pragmatic. These properties are not strictly predictable from the component parts including the nature of the parent noun and verbal morphology. Such an unpredictable nature is suggestive of a constructional analysis. The form-meaning-function complex takes a templatic representation, which expresses (...)

    Intergenerational Transmission of Maternal Adverse Childhood Experiences on Next Generation’s Development: A Mini-Review.Keita Ishikawa, Natsuko Azuma & Mai Ohka - 2022 - Frontiers in Psychology 13.
    have extremely harmful impacts on an individual’s physical, social and mental health throughout their life-span. Recently, it has been reported that maternal ACEs increase the risk of developmental delay in the offspring across generations. This mini review focuses on the direct relationship between maternal ACEs and child developmental delay, and potential mediators/moderators that associate their relationship. Six studies were identified using three search engines. The results indicated that four out of six studies reported at least one significant direct association between (...)

    The communicative relevance of auditory nuisance.Péter Pongrácz, Nikolett Czinege, Thaissa Menezes Pavan Haynes, Rosana Suemi Tokumaru, Ádám Miklósi & Tamás Faragó - 2016 - Interaction Studies 17 (1):26-47.
    Excessive dog barking is among the leading sources of noise pollution world-wide; however, the reasons for the annoyance of barking to people remained uninvestigated. Our questions were: is the annoyance rating affected by the acoustic parameters of barks; does the attributed inner state of the dog and the nuisance caused by its barks correlate; does the gender and country of origin affect the subjects’ sensitivity to barking. Participants from Hungary (N = 100) and Brazil (N = 60) were tested with (...)

    Self-fulfilling chaotic mistakes: Some examples and implications.Barkley Rosser - manuscript
    In talks given early in the 1990s, Jean-Michel Grandmont (1998) introduced the concept of the self-fulfilling mistake. This phenomenon can emerge when economic agents cannot distinguish between randomness and determinism, a situation that can occur when the underlying true dynamics are chaotic (Radunskaya, 1994), although such a situation could arise with other forms of complex nonlinear dynamics besides those involving chaotic dynamics. In such a situation, agents may be unable to discern the true dynamics and may adopt simple, boundedly rational (...)
