The Government has offered Australia's three mobile operators, and vividwireless, renewal of their existing spectrum allocated on 15 year licences in the late 90s and early 2000s at set prices, while the Government expects to rake in $3 billion.
The lead authors are Dr. John A. Bargh, from the Department of Psychology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, and Dr. Lawrence Williams, from the Leeds School of Business of the University of Colorado at Boulder.
The abstract to their Science magazine paper “Experiencing Physical Warmth Promotes Interpersonal Warmth” states “’Warmth’ is the most powerful personality trait in social judgment, and attachment theorists have stressed the importance of warm physical contact with caregivers during infancy for healthy relationships in adulthood."
"Intriguingly, recent research in humans points to the involvement of the insula in the processing of both physical temperature and interpersonal warmth (trust) information.”
“Accordingly, we hypothesized that experiences of physical warmth (or coldness) would increase feelings of interpersonal warmth (or coldness), without the person's awareness of this influence.”
“In study 1, participants who briefly held a cup of hot (versus iced) coffee judged a target person as having a "warmer" personality (generous, caring); in study 2, participants holding a hot (versus cold) therapeutic pad were more likely to choose a gift for a friend instead of for themselves.”
So, select a hot beverage for warmer relationships!
