Abstract Goldman, S. F. and Sedberry, G. R. 2011. Feeding habits of some demersal fish on the Charleston Bump off the southeastern United States. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 68: 390–398. The feeding habits of several demersal fish on the upper continental slope were investigated to determine the trophic relationships of these ecologically dominant and commercially important species, and to determine food sources for slope fish off the southeastern United States. Stomach contents were examined from 534 fish, including wreckfish (Polyprion americanus), barrelfish (Hyperoglyphe perciformis), and red bream (Beryx decadactylus). Fish fed on 46 prey taxa, and there were dietary differences among predators. Wreckfish predominantly consumed teleost fish and squid; barrelfish had a diet dominated by pelagic tunicates and some mesopelagic fish and squid; red bream consumed mainly fish, squid, and crustaceans. Seasonal shifts in diet were observed in all three species. Many of the prey items encountered were vertically migrating organisms, which are a critical link between surface waters and the slope ecosystem.

This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of a novel mind perception manipulation. Mind perception is currently theorized to be an essential aspect of a number of human social psychological processes. Thus, a successful manipulation would allow for the causal study of those processes. This manipulation was created in an attempt to explore the downstream impact of mind perception on the endorsement of conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories are steadily becoming more and more prominent in social discourse. Endorsement of conspiracy theories are beginning to show real world ramifications such as a danger to human health (e.g., in the anti-vaccination movement). A sample of college students (valid N = 53) from a large rural institution in the southeastern United States participated for course credit. These participants completed a mind perception pretest, were randomly assigned to either the manipulation in question (in which participants are asked to consider the ‘mind’ of several targets and write their thoughts about them) or the control condition, and then they completed a posttest. The mixed ANOVA revealed that the interaction term between Time and Condition was not significant. Because the manipulation did not work, other analyses were aborted, in accord with the pre-registration. My Discussion focuses on the procedures and potential shortcomings of this manipulation, in an effort to lay the groundwork for a successful one.
