This article explores the representation of Daoism and Chinese religion in the writings of Aleister Crowley. The influence of Asian religions on the occult revival of the late nineteenth century has often been recognized. Even though much has been said about the perception of Indian religious traditions in European and American esotericism, the influence of Chinese religion on the same environment

The morphology of the internal organs of two representative species of the crustacean classes Mystacocarida, Derocheilocaris typica (Pennak & Zinn, 1943), and Cephalocarida, Hutchinsoniella macracantha (Sanders, 1955), has been studied ultrastructurally from 1990 onwards. A review of the subject offers a unique opportunity to compare and contrast the two taxa at a time when their key positions

In multiuser multiple–input multiple–output (MU–MIMO) systems, channel correlation is detrimental to system performance. We demonstrate that widely used, yet overly simplified, correlation models that generate identical correlation profiles for each terminal tend to severely underestimate the system performance. In sharp contrast, more physically motivated models that capture variations in the pow

Evacuation is an important activity for reducing the number of casualties and amount of damage in disaster management. Evacuation planning is tackled as a spatial optimization problem. The decision-making process for evacuation involves high uncertainty, conflicting objectives, and spatial constraints. This study presents a Multi-Objective Artificial Bee Colony (MOABC) algorithm, modified to prov

It is only relatively recently that Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) hasbeen recognised in children. Controlled treatment outcome studies ofchildhood PTSD are scarce, but those that exist indicate that CognitiveBehaviour Therapy (CBT) is an effective intervention. In this article, webriefly describe PTSD in children and outline some behavioural andcognitive models of the disorder. Derived fro

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) designed to target Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in youth was examined in a pilot feasibility trial. Participants (aged 10-18 years) were randomized to either 10 weeks of individual CBT (n = 20) or supported wait-list (n = 20). Diagnostic status (primary outcome) was assessed blindly at post-treatment for both groups, and at a 3-month follow-up for treated p

Bouts of excessive worry are common across the lifespan, increasing in frequency and complexity during adolescence and adulthood, and are found in several psychiatric disorders, particularly the anxiety disorders. There are evidence-based treatments for adolescents with anxiety disorders but psychological treatments designed specifically to target excessive worrying in adolescents are rare. Intole

We conducted preregistered replications of 28 classic and contemporary published findings, with protocols that were peer reviewed in advance, to examine variation in effect magnitudes across samples and settings. Each protocol was administered to approximately half of 125 samples that comprised 15,305 participants from 36 countries and territories. Using the conventional criterion of statistical sWe conducted preregistered replications of 28 classic and contemporary published findings, with protocols that were peer reviewed in advance, to examine variation in effect magnitudes across samples and settings.
