- Close ties between parents and babies yield benefits for preschoolers
02-07-2008 · EurekAlert!
Close, mutually responsive relationships between parents and babies have been linked to more self-regulated behavior when children reach preschool age. Researchers observed 102 families over the first two years of their child's life to gauge if the parents and children had such responsive relationships. Children were then observed after age 4 to determine their response to mothers' requests not to do something and their ability to self-regulate -- measured by deliberation, restraint and maturity of impulses.

- Tabletop Experiment Yields Bubbly Surprise
10-06-2006 · ScienceDaily
University of Chicago physicists have discovered a new class of behavior in air bubbles rising from an underwater nozzle. In this surprising behavior, the bubbles tear apart in sharp jerks instead of pinching off at a point, the research team will report in the Oct. 6 issue of the journal Physical Review Letters.

- Holier than thou? Employees who believe they are 'ethical' or 'moral' people might not be
10-30-2007 · EurekAlert!
A moral identity motivates behavior but accurate, ethical judgments are needed to set that behavior in the right direction, according to researchers at the University of Washington who study business ethics.

- Landmark modeling study at Penn reveals how ferroelectric computer memory works
10-10-2007 · EurekAlert!
A collaboration of University of Pennsylvania chemists and engineers has performed multiscale modeling of ferroelectric domain walls and provided a new theory of behavior for domain-wall motion, the "sliding wall" that separates ferroelectric domains and makes high-density ferroelectric RAM possible.

- New accelerator technique doubles particle energy in just one meter
02-14-2007 · EurekAlert!
Imagine a car that accelerates from zero to 60 in 250 feet, and then rockets to 120 miles per hour in just one more inch.That's essentially what a collaboration of more than a dozen accelerator physicists has accomplished, using electrons for their racecars and plasma for the afterburners. The researchers published their work in the Feb. 15 issue of Nature.

- Dark matter mystery deepens in cosmic 'train wreck'
08-16-2007 · EurekAlert!
Astronomers have discovered a chaotic scene unlike any witnessed before in a cosmic "train wrecK" between giant galaxy clusters. NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and optical telescopes revealed a dark matter core that was mostly devoid of galaxies, which may pose problems for current theories of dark matter behavior.

- Kids at risk: Assessing diet and exercise behaviors in adolescents
01-26-2007 · EurekAlert!
Do adolescents get enough exercise and eat the right foods? Is there too much fat in their diets? In a study published in the February 2007 issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, researchers analyzed the behavior of almost 900 11-to-15 year-olds and found that nearly 80 percent had multiple physical activity and dietary risk behaviors, almost half had at least three risk behaviors, and only 2 percent met all four of the health guidelines in the study.
