Several theoretical perspectives suggest that motives for engaging in sexual intercourse may be larger in number and psychologically complex in nature. Study 1 used a nomination procedure that identified 237 expressed reasons for having sex, ranging from the mundane (e.g., “I wanted to experience physical pleasure”) to the spiritual (e.g., “I wanted to get closer to God”), from altruistic (e.g., “I wanted the person to feel good about himself/herself”) to vengeful (e.g., “I wanted to get back at my partner for having cheated on me”). Study 2 asked participants (N&nbsp;=&nbsp;1,549) to evaluate the degree to which each of the 237 reasons had led them to have sexual intercourse. Factor analyses yielded four large factors and 13 subfactors, producing a hierarchical taxonomy. The Physical reasons subfactors included Stress Reduction, Pleasure, Physical Desirability, and Experience Seeking. The Goal Attainment subfactors included Resources, Social Status, Revenge, and Utilitarian. The Emotional subfactors included Love and Commitment and Expression. The three Insecurity subfactors included Self-Esteem Boost, Duty/Pressure, and Mate Guarding. Significant gender differences supported several previously advanced theories. Individual differences in expressed reasons for having sex were coherently linked with personality traits and with individual differences in sexual strategies. Discussion focused on the complexity of sexual motivation and directions for future research.SpringerLink - Journal Article. In taoism they found a list of 100 reasons why people have sex.

In this paper we outline a theory to deal with such systems. The theory consists of two parts. The first part introduces the concept of a chemical organization as a closed and mass-maintaining set of components. This concept allows to map a complex (reaction) network to the set of organizations, providing a new view on the system's structure. The second part connects dynamics with the set of organizations, which allows to map a movement of the system in state space to a movement in the set of organizations.http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2f7dbaecdc2a9989ca7183e6943050f63/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2007-02-09T15:18:16+01:00constructivedynamicalsystem algebra artificialchemistry dynamicalsystem personal organizationtheory <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/di Fenizio">Pietro Speroni di Fenizio</a>, <a href="/author/Dittrich">Peter Dittrich</a>, <a href="/author/Ziegler">Jens Ziegler</a>, and <a href="/author/Banzhaf">Wolfgang Banzhaf</a> </span><em>German Workshop on Artificial Life GWAL 2000, </em>(<em>April 2000</em>)Fri Feb 09 15:18:16 CET 2007German Workshop on Artificial Life (GWAL 2000)Only available eletronicallyAprilTowards a Theory of Organizations2000constructivedynamicalsystem algebra artificialchemistry dynamicalsystem personal organizationtheory In this paper we develop an algebra to describe organizations. Its application is demonstrated with five examples. We start from definitions given by Fontana (1992) of an organization as a closed and self-maintaining set of interacting objects. We develop a formal framework to describe the inner structure of an organization and a relationship between different organizations. The definitions of intersection and union of organizations are developed. Those definitions naturally give rise to a lattice (an algebraic structure over a partially ordered set) which provides a precise basis to study the hierarchical nature of organizations. Some fundamental properties are described and the usefulness of the mathematical concepts demonstrated by application.http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/21b7151aa88232cd36bf2f1ac8cc22f5e/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2007-02-09T15:14:37+01:00computing artificialchemistries reactionnetwork organizationtheory <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Matsumaru">Naoki Matsumaru</a>, <a href="/author/Centler">Florian Centler</a>, <a href="/author/di Fenizio">Pietro Speroni di Fenizio</a>, and <a href="/author/Dittrich">Peter Dittrich</a> </span><em>International Journal of Unconventional Computing</em> (<em>2005</em>)Fri Feb 09 15:14:37 CET 2007International Journal of Unconventional ComputingChemical Organization Theory as a Theoretical Base for Chemical Computing2005computing artificialchemistries reactionnetwork organizationtheory Florian Centlerhttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2eb335fdb43c61c79b48c1834f3371b9a/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2007-02-09T15:13:16+01:00biology reactionnetwork petrinets organizationtheory <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Kaleta">Christoph Kaleta</a>, <a href="/author/Centler">Florian Centler</a>, and <a href="/author/Dittrich">Peter Dittrich</a> </span><em> 34, </em><em>page 117-124. </em><em>Humana Press, </em>(<em>October 2006</em>)<em>Proceedings of the 7 th Conference on Protein Expression in Animal CellsPEACe . </em>Fri Feb 09 15:13:16 CET 20072Molecular BiotechnologyOctoberProceedings of the 7 th Conference on Protein Expression in Animal Cells(PEACe)117-124Analyzing Molecular Reaction Networks: From Pathways to Chemical Organizations342006biology reactionnetwork petrinets organizationtheory http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2ed906998eec60005e098b39104d549da/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2007-02-08T22:31:02+01:00alternative chemistry systemsbiology programming organizationtheory <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Matsumaru">Naoki Matsumaru</a>, <a href="/author/Lenser">Thorsten Lenser</a>, <a href="/author/Hinze">Thomas Hinze</a>, and <a href="/author/Dittrich">Peter Dittrich</a> </span><em>Proceedings of the BioSysBio, Systems Biology, Bioinformatics and Synthetic Biology Conference, </em>(<em>2007</em>)Thu Feb 08 22:31:02 CET 2007Proceedings of the BioSysBio, Systems Biology, Bioinformatics and Synthetic Biology ConferenceDesigning a Chemical Program Using Chemical Organization2007alternative chemistry systemsbiology programming organizationtheory Theory BioSysBiohttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/287404604d085e9fa73cf9e75a4c5bdb3/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2007-02-08T22:13:34+01:00planets reactionnetwork atmosphere organizationtheory <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Centler">Florian Centler</a>, and <a href="/author/Dittrich">Peter Dittrich</a> </span><em>Planetary and Space Science</em> (<em>2006</em>)Thu Feb 08 22:13:34 CET 2007Planetary and Space Science??Chemical Organizations in Atmospheric Photochemistries-A New Method to Analyze Chemical Reaction Networks2006planets reactionnetwork atmosphere organizationtheory Florian Centlerhttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/21a0ba682c333a5bdecf7c09a20869bf0/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2007-02-06T17:30:28+01:00book evolution german <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Hofbauer">Josef Hofbauer</a>, and <a href="/author/Sigmund">Karl Sigmund</a> </span><em>Paul Parey, Berlin und Hamburg, </em><em>Lindenstrasse 44-47, D-1000 Berlin 61, </em>(<em>1984</em>)Tue Feb 06 17:30:28 CET 2007Lindenstrasse 44-47, D-1000 Berlin 61Evolutionstheorie und Dynamische Systeme1984book evolution german In German :(http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2c2d68f4e582bfa5c27c3e42a48af6bbd/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2007-02-05T15:12:14+01:00article reactionnetwork fire <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Moreac">G.

At least some of these networks exhibit distinctive global features such as the"small world"behavior. The systematic study of such properties, however, suffers from substantial sampling biases in the few networks that are known in detail. A computational model for generating them is therefore required. Here we present a Toy Model that provides a consistent framework in which generic properties of extensive chemical reaction networks can be explored in detail and that at the same time preserves the"look-and-feel"of chemistry: Molecules are represented as labeled graphs,by their structural formulas; their basic properties are derived by a caricature version of the Extended Huckel MO theory that operates directly on the graphs; chemical reaction mechanisms are implemented as graph rewriting rules acting on the structural formulas; reactivities and selectivities are modeled by a variant of the Frontier Molecular Orbital Theory based on the Extended Huckel scheme. The approach is illustrated for two types of reaction networks: Diels-Alder reactions and the formose reaction implicated in prebiotic sugar synthesisnot so toyhttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2190695c427504b4e2af847f0ec2ba410/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2006-12-06T15:54:40+01:00chemicalreactionsystem network <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/R.">Lehmann R.</a> </span><em>Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry</em> (<em>2002</em>)Wed Dec 06 15:54:40 CET 2006Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry297-314Determination of dominant pathways in chemical reaction systems: An algorithm and its application to stratospheric chemistry41,2002chemicalreactionsystem network ePIC - electronic Publication Information Center from Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research.http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2d04dfaec04b0f18ab79daa850c4944e3/pietrosperonipietrosperoni2006-12-06T14:58:15+01:00artificialchemistry informationtheory kullback space <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Lindgren">A.
