Moments of realization: extending Homeworld in British-African Novelist Doris Lessing's .

For Husserl, the is the tacit, taken-for-granted sphere of experiences, understanding, and situations marking out a world that is comfortable, usual, and "the way things are and should be." Always, according to Husserl, the homeworld is in some mode of lived mutuality with an -a world as seen as a realm of difference, atypicality, and otherness. In this article, I draw on British-African novelist Doris Lessing's 1969 novel, , to consider the shifting homeworld of protagonist Martha Quest, a young white African woman emigrating to battle-scarred London immediately after World War II.

Using machine learning to understand age and gender classification based on infant temperament.

Age and gender differences are prominent in the temperament literature, with the former particularly salient in infancy and the latter noted as early as the first year of life. This study represents a meta-analysis utilizing Infant Behavior Questionnaire-Revised (IBQ-R) data collected across multiple laboratories (N = 4438) to overcome limitations of smaller samples in elucidating links among temperament, age, and gender in early childhood. Algorithmic modeling techniques were leveraged to discern the extent to which the 14 IBQ-R subscale scores accurately classified participating children as boys (n = 2,298) and girls (n = 2,093), and into three age groups: youngest (< 24 weeks; n = 1,102), mid-range (24 to 48 weeks; n = 2,557), and oldest (> 48 weeks; n = 779).

Situated cognition and the phenomenology of place: lifeworld, environmental embodiment, and immersion-in-world.

This article makes use of a passage from novelist Gabriel García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude to illustrate Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology of the lived body and to consider what the related phenomenological concepts of place, environmental embodiment, and immersion-in-world might offer research in situated cognition.
