Neuroprediction: New Technology, Old Problems

New Challenges and Old Problems

New Insights to Old Problems

From the history of the θ-τ puzzle and the discovery of parity non-conservation in 1956, we review the current status of discrete symmetry violations in the weak interaction. Possible origin of these symmetry violations are discussed. PACS: 11.30.Er, 12.15.Ff, 14.60.Pq

Neuroprediction of future rearrest.

Identification of factors that predict recurrent antisocial behavior is integral to the social sciences, criminal justice procedures, and the effective treatment of high-risk individuals. Here we show that error-related brain activity elicited during performance of an inhibitory task prospectively predicted subsequent rearrest among adult offenders within 4 y of release (N = 96). The odds that ...

Children and computers: new technology--old concerns.

Computer technology has ushered in a new era of mass media, bringing with it great promise and great concerns about the effect on children's development and well-being. Although we tend to see these issues as being new, similar promises and concerns have accompanied each new wave of media technology throughout the past century: films in the early 1900s, radio in the 1920s, and television in the...

Revitalized old technology spurs new interest, applications

August 01, 2007 | Musculoskeletal Imaging [1], Vendors [2] Although the roots of traditional geometric x-ray tomography date back to the 1930s, the technique was not practical at that time because image receptors could not provide large-area dynamic scanning. The technique, renamed tomosynthesis in the 1970s, acquired only one imaging section at a time, requiring additional time and radiation d...
