Competing behavior and observing responses

Observing Responses and Decision Processes

Vigilance performance was investigated within the framework of a two-stage model. A direct measure of the first phase, the observing response (OR) stage, was obtained by requiring Ss to key press to produce the stimulus display containing either a signal or noise. The second phase, the detection-decision stage, was analyzed using both conventional measures and those derived from the theory of s...

Observing behavior and atypically restricted stimulus control.

Restricted stimulus control refers to discrimination learning with atypical limitations in the range of controlling stimuli or stimulus features. In the study reported here, 4 normally capable individuals and 10 individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) performed two-sample delayed matching to sample. Sample-stimulus observing was recorded with an eye-tracking apparatus. High accuracy sco...

A Visualizer for Observing Parallel Program Behavior

Observing Operating System Behavior using /proc

What is a /proc File System? : The /proc file system isn't a file system in the standard sense. Rather, the /proc file system is an interface to the address space of running processes. With /proc, you can use standard UNIX system calls (e.g., open(), read(), write(), and ioctl()) to query or manipulate the processes' address space. In fact, the Solaris ps(1) command uses /proc to determine the ...

Observing Chiral Nonanalytic Behavior with FLIC Fermions

First results from lattice QCD revealing the chiral nonanalytic behavior of nucleon and ∆ baryon magnetic moments are presented. Numerical simulations in the light quark mass regime employing the nonperturbatively O(a)-improved conserved vector current are enabled via FLIC fermions. Quenched chiral perturbation theory for the nucleon and ∆ magnetic moments is derived to next to next to leading ...
