For embodied cognition, “the nervous system does not process pre-existent information … it creates information in concert with the rest of the body and the environment” (Citation1991, p. xxvi). To make sense of this critique, let’s take an example. Piccinini and Scarantino (...

Natural redox partners of bacterial cytochrome P450s (P450s) are mostly unknown. Therefore, substrate conversions are performed with heterologous redox partners; in the case of CYP106A2 from Bacillus megaterium ATCC 13368, bovine adrenodoxin (Adx) and ad
The racial patterns are particularly interesting. This does not appear to be a social class phenomenon in disguise, but a difference patterned by the racial distinction. The ad hoc explanation is obvious; at the present moment the American Negro is alienated from American society and unimpressed by...
One possible explanation for our unexpected findings might be derived from the product matchup hypothesis from advertising research (Kamins, Citation1990; Yang, Citation2018), which argues that merely using a celebrity ‘endorser’ for a product does not necessarily lead to better product evaluations ...
