N-methylacetamide is a solvent better than water for amino acid side chains: A rationalization grounded in the solvent-excluded volume effect
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Chemical Physics Letters"
DOI: 10.1016/j.cplett.2020.138160
Abstract: Abstract Experimental measurements indicate that the Gibbs energy change is negative for the transfer from water to liquid N-methylacetamide of all the amino acid side chains [J.Biol.Chem. 261 (1986) 7220]. The rationalization of these data… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0140525x19002061
Abstract: Abstract Cushman argues that the function of rationalization is to attribute mental representations to ourselves, thereby making these representations available for future planning. I argue that such attribution is often not necessary and sometimes maladaptive.… read more here.

Antecedent rationalization: Rationalization prior to action

DOI: 10.1017/s0140525x19002188
Abstract: Abstract Often times we find ourselves wrestling with the urge to commit a non-rational action. When this happens, we are quite good at adopting quasi-beliefs that, if true, would make the action rational. In other… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0140525x19002292
Abstract: Abstract Cushman seeks to explain rationalization in terms of fundamental mental processes, and he hypotheses a selected-for function: information exchange between “rational” and “non-rational” processes in the brain. While this is plausible, his account overlooks… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acssensors.3c00175
Abstract: The current pandemic has shown that we need sensitive and deployable diagnostic technologies. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors can be an ideal solution for developing such advanced point-of-need (PON) diagnostic tests. Homogeneous (reagentless) SERS sensors… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/0735648x.2018.1515100
Abstract: ABSTRACT Judicial decision-making has significant consequences for individuals, families, local communities, and social institutions. Mandatory sentencing guidelines were originally created to control disparity in the sentencing process. After years of implementation, they further embedded rationalization… read more here.
