Old Proverbs in New Skins – An fMRI Study on Defamiliarization
We investigated how processing fluency and defamiliarization (the art of rendering familiar notions unfamiliar) contribute to the affective and esthetic processing of reading in an event-related functional magnetic-resonance-imaging experiment. We compared the neural correlates of processing (a) familiar German proverbs, (b) unfamiliar proverbs, (c) defamiliarized variations with altered conten...

This paper analyzes the impact of a negotiated scheme and a generic reference price system in comparison to a simple copayment system in a vertical di¤erentiation model with switching costs. The duopolistic market structure with an o¤-patent brand-name drug competing in a Stackelberg-mode with a generic version is adopted from Merino-Castéllo 2003. Brand-name drug and generic version di¤er in p...

“Key competencies”, "key skills" and “key qualifications” are buzzwords so prominently featured in contemporary scientific treatises that discussions have been prompted about an inflationary use of the terms and what they really should be taken to mean. A similar situation exists in the field of ICT and CS education: What meaning should we ascribe to terms such as “skill”, “competency” and “qua...
متن کاملDifferent olfactory perception in heroin addicts: an fMRI study

Impairment of brain cognition in drug addiction is illustrated in many previous works; however, olfactory perception in addiction and in particular the neuronal mechanisms of it are rarely studied. Methods: In this experiment, we recruited 20 he...
متن کاملPrioritizing new over old: an fMRI study of the preview search task.
In visual search, observers can successfully ignore temporally separated distractors that are presented as a preview before onset of the search display. Previous behavioral studies have demonstrated the involvement of top-down selection mechanisms in preview search, biasing attention against the old set in favor of the more relevant new set. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we repli...
