why does coffee make me feel different like stress out
Coffee magnifies your body’s response to stressful events. This is the most dire and far-reaching problem with coffee consumption in relation to acne, I believe. In technical terms, coffee triggers “hyperadrenalism” – it makes your adrenal glands over-react to stressful events by pumping out excess stress hormones.
Myth #3: Drinking coffee wears out your adrenal gland. It’s true that caffeine stimulates the production of cortisol by the adrenal glands. The. rise in cortisol is usually mild, temporary, and harmless. However, this effect can be. exaggerated in people who are under a lot of stress.

can coffee cause dehydration
1 Coffee drinking in moderation contributes to our fluid intake and does not lead to dehydration or significant loss of body water1,2,3,4,. Whilst caffeine may have a small diuretic effect, this effect is not strong enough to counter-balance the benefits of fluid intake from coffee drinking.
This is a false belief. Common Beverage Substitutions Lead to Dehydration. It is true that beverages such as tea, coffee, wine, beer, soft drinks, sports drinks and juices contain water, but they also contain caffeine, alcohol, sugar, artificial sweeteners or other chemicals that act as strong dehydrators.

what can you do with caffeine sensitivity
The human body is sensitive to caffeine. It increases mental awareness and helps you stay awake longer. The substance is present in soda, tea, coffee, sports beverages, chocolate and certain medications. After you consume caffeine, the substance enters the bloodstream within minutes and affects your brain.
Three Levels of Caffeine Sensitivity. Based on the genetic data we have to date, we can identify people with 3 distinct levels of caffeine sensitivity, which in turn determines to what degree the effects of caffeine will be realized. 1. Hypersensitive to Caffeine. These people react to very small amounts of caffeine. Even at amounts less than 100 mg, people who are hypersensitive to caffeine can experience overdose symptoms such as insomnia, jitters, and an increased heartbeat. For these people, it can take as much as twice as long for caffeine to metabolized.

which decaffeinated tea type contains the least amount of caffeine
Objective: This science fair project consists of an investigation of several tea types (black, green, oolong and white tea) that have been commercially decaffeinated for the presences of detectable traces of caffeine using a tannic acid assay. The longer the tea is brewed, the more caffeine will be removed but so will other compounds in the tea leaves. 2 Carefully pour 2 ml of each tea infusion into five test tubes (or pill bottles if used instead of test tubes) and allow the tea infusions to cool.
For a tea to be legally labeled decaffeinated in the United States, 98% of the caffeine must be removed. This means one cup should contain less than 5 milligram of caffeine or 0.4% in dry weight.For caffeine sensitive individuals, drinking decaffeinated tea may seem an ideal way to enjoy tea health benefits without its side effects. Unfortunately, things do not quite work out this way.his means one cup should contain less than 5 milligram of caffeine or 0.4% in dry weight.

Others think that caffeine causes your adrenal glands to release more adrenaline, which causes your blood pressure to increase.

Chamomile is prepared from two varieties, German chamomile (Matricaria retutica), and Roman (also known as English) chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile). Of the two, German chamomile is the more popular. The blossoms of the chamomile plant are what give the tea its unique sweet floral aroma. When making tea, keep this in mind: 1 Brew chamomile to taste. 2 To keep the flavor smooth and not too bitter, I try to keep it 3 minutes or less.
According to Arbor Teas® (1), any tea that says caffeine free is not made from true leaves of the camellia sinensis tea plant. Decaf teas will still have small amounts of caffeine in it because caffeine is naturally in the plant.

Today, most processors use safe methods to remove caffeine. A few different techniques are available, and understanding them may help allay your concerns about coffee contaminants. Coffee beans are decaffeinated by softening the beans with water and using a substance to extract the caffeine. Water alone cannot be used because it strips away too much of the flavor. The goal is to extract the caffeine with minimal loss of flavor.
Generally, I don't recommend decaffeinated coffee. This is because the process used to remove the caffeine is arguably more toxic than the caffeine itself and can leave up to 60 percent of the caffeine in the beans. The best option for decaffeinated coffee is the Swiss water process.

A rough guideline for a deep, balanced brew is to use two tablespoons of ground coffee for every six ounces of water (3/4 cup). This is equivalent to one gram of coffee per 16 millimeters of water, if you want to be more precise. For larger batches of coffee, this is sixty grams of coffee grounds per liter of water.

This paper outlines the INTERFACE software ergonomic evaluation methodology and presents new validation results. The INTERFACE methodology is based on a simultaneous assessment of heart rate variability, skin conductance, and other data. The results of using this methodology on-site, in a nonlaboratory environment indicate that it is potentially capable of identifying quality attributes of elements of software with a temporal resolution of only a few seconds. This paper presents pilot results supporting this hypothesis, showing empirical evidence in spite of the definitely non-laboratory environment: they indicate that the method is robust enough for practical usability tests. Naturally, in the future these pilot results will have to be followed with further laboratory-based verification and refinement. This paper focuses only on some characteristics of this method, not on an actual analysis of human–computer interaction; however, its results can establish a future practical and objective event-related analysis of software use. human–computer interaction (HCI) software ergonomics software usability testing and evaluation empirical methods heart rate variability (HRV) skin conductance
Serious games can be most efficient if the users are motivated and engaged in the gameplay. Whereas improving core gameplay mechanics can probably yield good results, a dynamic difficulty controlling system might offer additional benefit to a well-designed game. Although performance is the easiest measure to base a control framework on, it is a combination of many different effects. Physiology channels, such as electroencephalography, electrocardiography and pupillometry can reveal the changes in invested mental effort levels and would serve as a more objective base for a difficulty controlling system. To test this assumption, we used Tetris because it is a well-known game and it is simple to manipulate difficulty. In the first half of the experiment, all participants played four pre-set difficulty levels and one customized. In the second part, we tried to elicit certain mental states (boredom, frustration, engagement and fatigue) that are important markers for a controlling system by manipulating difficulty in different patterns. We have found that only pupil diameter data corresponded with expected results. Possible causes and future directions are discussed.

Beginning with the theoretical premise that pain stimuli are liable to perturb the ordinary dynamical state of the brain, we hypothesized that individuals in pain may experience impaired information processing. A sample of 19 persons complaining of chronic pain and a comparison sample of 25 persons having sustained head trauma were obtained by retrospective chart review. The chronic-pain group consisted of 19 persons whose primary complaint was significant chronic pain, with no known history of head trauma or neurologic disorder. The comparison group consisted of 25 persons who had sustained mild to moderate head traumas. All subjects were administered information processing and motor subtests of the Human Performance Measurement System, a computerized set of measures. Both groups obtained mean z scores below the normative mean on all measures except visual digit span. There were no differences between groups on motor measures, visual digit span, and visual-spatial memory. On 2 of 6 information-processing tests, pain patients performed more poorly than head-trauma patients. The results suggest that pain may disrupt cognitive performances which depend on intact speed and capacity of information processing.
Shoulder pain and dysfunction are relatively common, but traditional treatment approaches and their efficacy are beset with problems, due in part, to the lack of adherence to therapeutic exercise programmes. The use of novel technology to support rehabilitation is increasing in popularity, with some evidence that it may be able to decrease the perception of pain, and improve movement quality, engagement and compliance with therapy. However, indiscriminate use of off-the-shelf games technology or haphazard approaches to the design of rehabilitation applications and virtual environments may not only reduce the potential benefits, but may even exacerbate the underlying problems. We consider the potential and the pitfalls associated with the use of novel technology in virtual reality rehabilitation, and suggest some strategies for reducing the risks and optimising therapeutic outcomes in virtual environments.
Every function of n inputs can be efficiently computed by a complete network of n processors in such a way that: If no faults occur, no set of size t n /2 of players gets any additional information (other than the function value), Even if Byzantine faults are allowed, no set of size t n /3 can either disrupt the computation or get additional information. Furthermore, the above bounds on t are tight!

We compare the utility of Maximum Likelihood Difference Scaling (MLDS) and Ordinal Difference Scaling (ODS) for the measurement of emotion intensity. MLDS and ODS are both nonmetric probabilistic scaling methods based on difference measurement; however, MLDS uses quadruple comparisons (comparison of pairs of stimulus pairs) as input data, whereas ODS uses graded pair comparison judgments, where participants indicate the size of the difference between two stimuli on an ordinal response scale. In two studies using different kinds of emotional stimuli (disgust-inducing pictures, and descriptions of situations eliciting relief), quadruple comparisons and graded pair comparisons of the stimuli were collected and submitted to MLDS and ODS respectively. The scaling solutions were compared in terms of the reliability of the estimated scale values and their correlations to direct ratings of emotion intensity. The findings of both studies suggest that ODS performs at least as well as MLDS on these criteria. In addition, in most cases, good to high agreement between the scale values estimated by the two methods was found. Hence, ODS may be used as an economical alternative to MLDS for the difference scaling of emotional stimuli. Copyright Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2015
Human interpretation of images during image annotation is complicated, but most existing interactive image annotation systems are generally operated based on social tagging, while ignoring that tags are insufficient to convey image semantics. Hence, it is critical to study the nature of image annotation behaviors and process. This study investigated annotation tactics, transitions, strategies and their efficiency during the image annotation process. A total of 90 participants were recruited to annotate nine pictures in three emotional dimensions with three interactive annotation methods. Data collected from annotation logs and verbal protocols were analyzed by applying both qualitative and quantitative methods. The findings of this study show that the cognitive process of human interpretation of images is rather complex, which reveals a probable bias in research involving image relevance feedback. Participants preferred applying scroll bar (Scr) and image comparison (Cim) tactics comparing with rating tactic (Val), and they did fewer fine tuning activities, which reflects the influence of perceptual level and users’ cognitive load during image annotation. Annotation tactic transition analysis showed that Cim was more likely to be adopted at the beginning of each phase, and the most remarkable transition was from Cim to Scr. By applying sequence analysis, the authors found 10 most commonly used sequences representing four types of annotation strategies, including Single tactic strategy, Tactic combination strategy, Fix mode strategy and Shift mode strategy. Furthermore, two patterns, “quarter decreasing” and “transition cost,” were identified based on time data, and both multiple tactics (e.g., the combination of Cim and Scr) and fine tuning activities were recognized as efficient tactic applications. Annotation patterns found in this study suggest more research needs to be done considering the need for multi-interactive methods and their influence. The findings of this study generated detailed and useful guidance for the interactive design in image annotation systems, including recommending efficient tactic applications in different phases, highlighting the most frequently applied tactics and transitions, and avoiding unnecessary transitions.

A new trend in medicine is the use of algorithms to analyze big datasets, e.g. using everything your phone measures about you for diagnostics or monitoring. However, these algorithms are commonly compared against weak baselines, which may contribute to excessive optimism. To assess how well an algorithm works, scientists typically ask how well its output correlates with medically assigned scores. Here we perform a meta-analysis to quantify how the literature evaluates their algorithms for monitoring mental wellbeing. We find that the bulk of the literature ($\sim$77%) uses meaningless comparisons that ignore patient baseline state. For example, having an algorithm that uses phone data to diagnose mood disorders would be useful. However, it is possible to over 80% of the variance of some mood measures in the population by simply guessing that each patient has their own average mood - the patient-specific baseline. Thus, an algorithm that just predicts that our mood is like it usually is can explain the majority of variance, but is, obviously, entirely useless. Comparing to the wrong (population) baseline has a massive effect on the perceived quality of algorithms and produces baseless optimism in the field. To solve this problem we propose "user lift" that reduces these systematic errors in the evaluation of personalized medical monitoring.
We introduce the Friends and Family study, a longitudinal living laboratory in a residential community. In this study, we employ a ubiquitous computing approach, Social Functional Mechanism-design and Relationship Imaging, or Social fMRI, that combines extremely rich data collection with the ability to conduct targeted experimental interventions with study populations. We present our mobile-phone-based social and behavioral sensing system, deployed in the wild for over 15 months. Finally, we present three investigations performed during the study, looking into the connection between individuals' social behavior and their financial status, network effects in decision making, and a novel intervention aimed at increasing physical activity in the subject population. Results demonstrate the value of social factors for choice, motivation, and adherence, and enable quantifying the contribution of different incentive mechanisms.

With a growing aging population, it has become a very important issue to monitor elderly people who are increasingly living alone and away from their families. Many research projects have explored this issue. However, these are mainly focused on one-way communication. In this paper, we proposed a new communication system for the elderly using a medicine chest. The "Social Medicine Box" is a system which notifies the status of the elderly taking medicines as well as their feeling a picture sent automatically to their family. The elderly can also get feedback and communicate with their family as well as their social network (e.g. Twitter and Facebook). In addition, it allows family members living apart to seamlessly share the information without the annoyance of having to initiate conversation.
William James, the noted psychologist and philosopher, believed that smiling has a positive effect on our mind. James' view, which was confirmed by several psychological studies, was that we become happier when we laugh. In this paper, we propose a new digital appliance that encourages the act of smiling in our daily lives. This system is designed for people who may not always realize when they are in low spirits and/or have difficulty with smiling. In addition, we believe that this system will foster casual conversation and prompt communications with other people. Our appliance, called the HappinessCounter, combines visual smile recognition, user feedback, and network communication. We conducted two trials of the HappinessCounter system, the first with a single occupant and the second with a couple living together. The system had positive effects on user's mood and prompted communication among family members, thereby increasing their positive mood as well.

The Computerphobia Reduction Program: Year 1. Program development and preliminary results
The program development and first-year results of a 3-year U.S. Department of Education Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) grant are described. The identification of computerphobics and the types of discomfort they experience are defined. A clinically based 5-week model computerphobia reduction and skills-acquisition program is presented. Screening and assessment measures are outlined and three treatment modules—two individual treatments (systematic desensitization and thought stopping) and an information/support group—are described. The first-year results demonstrate significant pretreatment-to-posttreatment change in anxiety, attitudes, cognitions, and feelings. Plans are discussed for further evaluation and program expansion.
If you use a personal computer, you probably use more than one program and you probably use some programs more often than others. If your personal computer is an IBM PC or compatible, you have probably become confused when starting to use a new program or one you have not used recently. The author completes a baker's dozen of “Common Sense Personal Computing” articles with a somewhat lighthearted look at a fairly serious problem — how programs frustrate occasional users, make life interesting for power users and trap unwary users of all sorts. He discusses odd and inconsistent uses of keystrokes, overuse of function and special keys, and problems in identifying functions and keystrokes.

AN EXPERIMENTAL CABINET FOR PHYSIOLOGICAL STUDIES OF EMOTIONS
It is perhaps particularly true in the study of emotions that external factors which can be standardized may be of little moment in comparison with unstandardizable intra-organic factors. It is also true that in the study of emotions standardization may defeat its own purpose through the requirement of laboratory conditions which in themselves provide a differential emotional stimulation. Moreover, it is of course recognized that laboratory situations are better adapted to the study of episodic emotional states than to the elucidation of emotional trends. Acknowledging these limitations, we still find an important place for laboratory techniques in the study of emotions, and a need for more thorough experimental controls than are ordinarily utilized.
This paper discusses eight projects that were conducted by students over a one-month period at a large amusement park. Many of the findings of the students resulted from their insights having worked in a specific area for a short time and having collected data intensively over a one-week period. The base case simulation models were validated by comparison to actual data, and one or more alternatives were considered.
