The titles of scientific articles have a special significance. We examined nearly 20 million scientific articles and recorded the development of articles with a question mark at the end of their titles over the last 40 years. Our study was confined to the disciplines of physics, life sciences and medicine, where we found a significant increase from 50% to more than 200% in the number of articles with question-mark titles. We looked at the principle functions and structure of the titles of scientific papers, and we assume that marketing aspects are one of the decisive factors behind the growing usage of question-mark titles in scientific articles.

“…Internal auditors had significantly higher scores with respect to 'total warmth' than those working in public accounting. Fisher et al (1995) suggested that higher 'total warmth' scores could be explained by the adoption of common goals in team settings. Their results indicate that teams with a higher score on 'total warmth' have significantly better commercial performance.…”

“…Additionally, FIRO-B has been applied to organise the major theories of family therapy (Doherty and Colangelo, 1984) and to classify approaches to decision-making (Schutz, 1987). Fisher et al (1995) noted the FIRO-B model has been popular with professionals ever since its inception.…”

“…They further indicated that these findings gave further justification for the inclusion by researchers of the 'warmth' variable as designed by Wiedemann et al (1979). Because of the importance given by Fisher et al (1995) to 'warmth', and since internal auditors usually work in teams, the 'warmth' variable was included in this study.…”

“…The warmth measure also has expected and wanted aspects. Fisher et al (1995) evaluated this warmth variable and posited "'warmth' springs from the adoption of common goals" (p.203). Furthermore, they reported "a significant correlation between the rank-ordered performance and the combined inclusion and affectation scores," in the participation and management of software creation teams (p.202).…”

A FIRO-B analysis of social skill preferences among auditors

This study investigates the relative significance of both the social interaction index (SII) and demographic variables by analysing their association to the likelihood in classifying an auditor as internal or external to the firm. This study uses the psychometric technique of the fundamental interpersonal relationship orientation-behavior (FIRO-B) to analyse and compare the social interaction preference of certified internal auditors (CIAs) working for US corporations and certified public accountants (CPAs) employed by public accounting firms. Surveys were developed using the FIRO-B instruments and sent to internal auditors from US corporations located in the western and southeastern sections of the USA. The results of the study show that the scores of the two groups are significantly different. Internal auditors reported lower social interaction preferences than the public accountants.

Personality, self‐esteem, and self‐construal as correlates of forgivingness

The relationship between forgivingness (enduring resentment, sensitivity to circumstances, and overall propensity to forgive) and a number of personality dimensions relevant to forgivingness was examined. These dimensions were self-esteem, shyness and embarrassment, on one hand, and self-construal and perceived loneliness, on the other hand. The main relationships between forgivingness and personality concerned the interpersonal dimensions of personality: shyness, embarrassment, independence from others, and interdependence with others. However, the intra-personal, strictly self-referential concomitants of these dimensions (self-esteem and loneliness) were not much linked to forgivingness. Furthermore, each personality factor had a distinct link with forgivingness: independence made the resentment still more enduring, shyness and social embarrassment exacerbated the sensitivity to circumstances, and interdependence increased the willingness to forgive. These findings throw light on the double aspect of forgiveness as intra-and inter-individual and on the relative independence of these aspects. The observed pattern of relationships varied notably (and significantly) as a function of the participants' genders. It could be therefore important, in future studies, to compute systematically correlation coefficients or assess main effects separately for women and men.
