The present investigation explores the possibility that power has increased salience among males but not females. Evidence indicates that stimuli that are self-relevant or related to chronic goals are more likely to capture attention than neutral information. Across three studies we explore the...

A central tenet of organizational justice theory is that people prefer decisions to be made with higher than with lower procedural fairness. The results of five studies unearthed a boundary condition for this general tendency. People who experienced non-contingent success had less of a desire to...

Layered transition metal oxides are key cathode materials for obtaining high energy density lithium batteries by virtue of their high specific capacities and operating voltages. However, harmful active species (e.g. reactive oxygen and free radicals) give rise to severe electrolyte decomposition...

We introduce a stochastic inventory relocation problem for a one-way, station-based car-sharing system with electric vehicles (EV), in which customers' rental demands and rented vehicles' travel distances are uncertain and workers are hired to relocate vehicles between stations. To maximize the...
