TL;DR: A brief overview of the problems and normative data regarding the percentage of participants solving, and mean time-to-solution for, each problem at each time limit can be used in selecting problems on the basis of difficulty or mean time necessary for reaching a solution.
Abstract: We have developed and tested 144 compound remote associate problems. Across eight experiments, 289 participants were given four time limits (2 sec, 7 sec, 15 sec, or 30 sec) for solving each problem. This paper provides a brief overview of the problems and normative data regarding the percentage of participants solving, and mean time-to-solution for, each problem at each time limit. These normative data can be used in selecting problems on the basis of difficulty or mean time necessary for reaching a solution.

TL;DR: The results show that the optimum is determined for all possible resource requirements and costs by certain sets of "feasible structures," which are networks that extend the precedence relation of No and respect the given time limit.
Abstract: We consider the problem of minimizing the resource costs in a project network No subject to a time limit for the completion of No, when resource requirements per activity and costs for obtaining resources are independent of time. Our results show that the optimum is determined for all possible resource requirements and costs by certain sets of "feasible structures," which are networks that extend the precedence relation of No and respect the given time limit. We characterize the least such sets, and give methods for determining them as well as for determining the optimum. Furthermore, we establish duality relations with the problem of scarce resources minimizing project duration subject to limited resources and characterize all "essentially different" problems.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors assessed whether undergraduate electronic gaming machine (EGM) gamblers would be more apt to set a time limit and spend less time gambling when asked to consider setting an explicit time limit prior to their gambling session.
Abstract: In the current study, we assessed whether undergraduate electronic gaming machine (EGM) gamblers would be more apt to set a time limit and spend less time gambling when asked to consider setting an explicit time limit prior to their gambling session. To this end, participants (N = 43) were randomly assigned to a time limit pop-up condition or control condition, both of which involved gambling on an EGM in a virtual reality (VR) casino. In the time limit pop-up condition, participants were asked (via pop-up message) to consider setting a time limit on play and entering that limit in an available text box prior to commencing play. In the no time limit pop-up condition, participants engaged in play immediately upon accessing the EGM in the VR casino (i.e. they were not exposed to a time limit pop-up message). As predicted, participants who were explicitly asked to consider setting a time limit on their EGM play were significantly more likely to do so and spent less time gambling than those who were not give...

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new schedule risk analysis method named as judgmental risk analysis process (JRAP) and offered a different project duration equation through JRAP, which is effective in uncertain conditions due to its capability of converting uncertainty to risk judgmentally in construction projects.

TL;DR: It is found that opportunities must occur frequently enough and inspection should be a high quality procedure to risk postponement and when the cost of failure increases, a significant reduction in the time limit of postponement interval is observed.
