From the School of Computer Science and Department of Psychology at McGill University, I marvel at the world through algorithmic lenses. My specific interests are in quantum computing, evolutionary game theory, modern evolutionary synthesis, and theoretical cognitive science. Previously I was at the Institute for Quantum Computing and Department of Combinatorics & Optimization at the University of Waterloo and a visitor to the Centre for Quantum Technologies at the National University of Singapore.

What is the sleep study that showed that a percentage of humans have a biological clock that is ~28 hours or greater? Exactly the sort of question reference-request tag was made for. |

What is the fastest language to think in? @ChuckSherrington I think I remember seeing studies that suggested that mental math is faster in Chinese because of what Xurtio describes (and other structural features of Chinese number names). So a variant of the question might be answerable, but I do think the OP should make fewer assumptions and show some initial research in the question. At least OP should demonstrate Wikipedia-level familiarity with the Whorf-hypothesis. |

Are there statistics about how many assertive people there are in the world? Not to mention that you can be assertive in some settings and not others. An example would be the stereotypical scientist that is assertive in an intellectual setting, but very passive in most other social settings. |

Is there any study that models the interaction among assertive, passive, aggressive and passive-aggressive people? Where have you looked already? How they interact with other people is inherent in the definition of the types, no? |

Categorization studies with a procedure similar to Shepard et al (1961) and Medin & Schaffer (1978) Also, could you please include proper citations instead of just author and year? Also, have you already done a forward search and looked at some of the articles that cite these two? |

What contextual links would make full-text journal articles more useful? I think this question might be off-topic for here, and a better fit at academia.SE |
