  abstract  = {Little research has focused on motivational state-trait interactions to explain impulse buying. Although the trait chronic regulatory focus has been linked to impulse buying, no evidence yet exists for an effect of situational regulatory focus and no research has examined whether the fit of chronic and situational regulatory focus can influence impulse buying with actual consumptive consequences rather than purchase intentions. Two laboratory experiments (total N = 250) manipulated situational regulatory focus before providing opportunities for impulse buying. In addition, cognitive constraint was manipulated as a potential boundary condition for regulatory focus effects. Situational promotion focus increased impulse buying relative to situational prevention focus in participants with strong chronic promotion, consistent with regulatory fit theory and independently of cognitive constraint. Surprisingly, situational promotion focus also increased impulse buying in participants with strong chronic prevention, but only under low cognitive constraint. These results may be explained by diverging mediating cognitive processes for promotion vs. prevention focus' effect on impulse buying. Future research must focus more on combining relevant states and traits in predicting consumer behavior. Marketing implications are discussed.},

  abstract  = {Modulating emotional responses to virtual stimuli is a fundamental goal of many immersive interactive applications. In this study, we leverage the illusion of illusory embodiment and show that owning a virtual body provides means to modulate emotional responses. In a single-factor repeated-measures experiment, we manipulated the degree of illusory embodiment and assessed the emotional responses to virtual stimuli. We presented emotional stimuli in the same environment as the virtual body. Participants experienced higher arousal, dominance, and more intense valence in the high embodiment condition compared to the low embodiment condition. The illusion of embodiment thus intensifies the emotional processing of the virtual environment. This result suggests that artificial bodies can increase the effectiveness of immersive applications psychotherapy, entertainment, computer-mediated social interactions, or health applications.},

  abstract  = {The ability to efficiently recognize the emotions on others' faces is something that most of us take for granted. Children with callous-unemotional (CU) traits and impulsivity/conduct problems (ICP), such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, have been previously described as being "fear blind". This is also associated with looking less at the eye regions of fearful faces, which are highly diagnostic. Previous attempts to intervene into emotion recognition strategies have not had lasting effects on participants' fear recognition abilities. Here we present both (a) additional evidence that there is a two-part causal chain, from personality traits to face recognition strategies using the eyes, then from strategies to rates of recognizing fear in others; and (b) a pilot intervention that had persistent effects for weeks after the end of instruction. Further, the intervention led to more change in those with the highest CU traits. This both clarifies the specific mechanisms linking personality to emotion recognition and shows that the process is fundamentally malleable. It is possible that such training could promote empathy and reduce the rates of antisocial behavior in specific populations in the future.},

  abstract  = {The Princes' War in South Germany (1458-1463) was the biggest military collision in the German lands in the middle of the fifteenth century. The most prominent princes of southern Germany participated in this struggle. Due to its significant scope, this conflict provides a valuable case study for achieving a better understanding of the conditions at the heart of the Holy Roman Empire at the sunset of the Middle Ages. The purpose of this study was to fill an existing gap in the modern research literature and provide a comprehensive up-to date monograph on the subject. The study was realized mainly on the basis of archival work and primary sources. Thousands of letters and documents exchanged between the princes, their advisors and the city representatives were carefully studied and analysed. Extensive use of printed sources as well as scientific literature also greatly facilitated this research. The first part of the dissertation provides a detailed description of the war itself and the events that led to it. In the initial phase of the struggle, Albrecht Achilles used his position as the imperial captain to advance his own interests. His actions enraged both Duke Ludwig and Elector Friedrich and made the war unavoidable. For more than two years two major coalitions of princes exchanged blows but as the dust settled the status quo ante bellum was restored in the eastern theatre of actions, while at the western front Elector Friedrich forced each of his opponents to make serious concessions. The second part of the dissertation is devoted to honor and reputation. It explores how these two constituents affected the actions and decision-making of the princes. The lack of a powerful arbiter allowed each of the princes to interpret the meaning of "right" and "justice" as most suited him, although they hardly intentionally misused these terms. Thus, more often than not, the important actors seemed to believe in the appropriateness of their deeds. Nevertheless, despite frequent emotional response, in the competition between emotions and cold calculation the latter usually prevailed. The conflict showed the confines of each of its major participants and the modus operandi of the Empire that prevented change and was tuned to keep the old order of things.},
