This document summarizes two studies on how music can regulate emotions like anger while driving. The first study found that preferred, positively valenced music reduced feelings of anger after anger-inducing traffic situations, while disliked, negatively valenced music increased anger. The second study found that low tempo music, which induces lower arousal, reduced anger more than no music or high tempo music. Both the valence and arousal dimensions of music were found to influence the intensity of felt anger in drivers. However, the studies did not observe if music's regulation of anger directly impacts driving behavior.

The effect of music listening on work performance.PeacefulNature
We use music to set the tone of our environment and our mood, whether we’re unwinding after work or throwing a party. But in an age when many of us spend our time staring at a computer screen, music has also become a mode of escape from outside distractions or dull tasks.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. Anger and aggressive driving
About 56% of all motor vehicle accidents in the
US included at least one aggressive action of
one of the participants (American Automobile
Association Foundation of Traffic Safety, 2009)
Idea of the study: Accident prevention by
downsizing driving anger.
Anger develops when driving goals are blocked
The consequences of anger in car driving are –
in some cases – aggressive driving acts (e.g.
blocking or chasing other drivers)

14. Simulator study,
same anger inducing scenes as in study I
3 musical tempo conditions:
- without any music
- with low musical tempo (low arousal)
- with high musical tempo (high arousal)
Only preferred music was used
Musical tempo was determined by counting the
beats/min
low musical tempo: less than 90 beats/min
high musical tempo: more than 120 beats/min
Study II: Musical tempo and
anger regulation
15. Measurement of anger intensity by a 7-step
anger intensity scale at 6 measuring times
Same order of events as in study I
Order of scenes were randomly changed
between the participants
57 participants with driving licence (aged
between 18 and 40) took part in the experiment
Study II: Musical tempo and
anger regulation
16. Amount of anger reduction and musical tempi
Study II: Musical tempo and
anger regulation
17. Conclusions
Valence as a psychological attribute of music is
able to influence the intensity of anger:
Positive evaluated music leads to a reduction of
anger,
Negative evaluated music leads to an
enhancement of anger
Musical tempo as a physical attribute is also able
to influence the intensity of anger:
Low musical tempo leads to a downsizing of
anger whereas the effect high musical tempo is
not quite clear
18. In general it can be assumed that the latent
dimensions of emotions (valence and arousal)
can be supplied with data from different sources
Whether the musical attributes valence and
arousal influence driving behaviour via the
regulation of anger couldn‘t be observed in the
studies presented
Conclusions

for your
attention!
