Personal Values and Cognitive Biases.

Introduction: Psychology textbooks abound with demonstrations of classic biases, yet the question why some people are more or less susceptible to those biases remains little explored. Drawing on Schwartz Values Theory (1992), we aim to show how individual differences in personal values, which express trans-situational, chronic motivations of a perceiver, impact cognitive biases.

Method: In six studies (N = 843; 42.

When guiding principles do not guide: The moderating effects of cultural tightness on value-behavior links.

Objective: Ample research documented the effects of guiding principles in people's lives, as reflected in personal values, on a variety of behaviors. But do these principles universally guide behaviors across all cultural contexts? To address this question, we investigated the effect of cross-cultural differences in the strength of social norms (i.e.

Orbital Interstitial Fluid: Evidence of a Potential Pathway for Extracranial Cerebrospinal Fluid Absorption.

Background And Purpose: The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence and characteristics of orbital interstitial fluid seen on magnetic resonance (MR) images of infants and young children.

Materials And Methods: Fat-suppressed axial T2-weighted MR images of 100 consecutive infants and young children (<6 years) without orbital pathology were retrospectively reviewed by 2 neuroradiologists. The presence, location, and extent of high-signal orbital interstitial fluid were characterized and tabulated as a function of age.
