Immersion in video games, creative self-efficacy, and political participation
Data from a cross-national survey (N = 801) of young adults in Australia, the Philippines, South Korea, and the U.S. (Guam, Hawaii, Continental U.S.) were analyzed to explore the relationships between the three subcomponents of the immersion motivation of video game play—discovery, role-play, and customization (Yee, 2006)—creative self-efficacy, and political participation. Findings reveal role-play and creative self-efficacy are positively associated with political participation; discovery and role-play are positively associated with creative self-efficacy. Furthermore, discovery, role-play, and customization had small indirect effects on political participation via creative self-efficacy

Measurement of the Resonant Molecular Formation Rate in Solid HD
Measurements of muon-catalyzed dt fusion () in solid
HD have been performed. The theory describing the energy dependent resonant
molecular formation rate for the reaction + HD is
compared to experimental results in a pure solid HD target. Constraints on the
rates are inferred through the use of a Monte Carlo model developed
specifically for the experiment. From the time-of- flight analysis of fusion
events in 16 and 37 targets, an average formation rate
consistent with 0.897(0.046) (0.166) times the
theoretical prediction was obtained.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
