When Feeling Is More Important Than Seeing in Sensorimotor Adaptation

Perception and action are based on information from multiple sensory modalities. For instance, both vision and proprioception provide information about hand position, and this information is integrated to generate a single estimate of where the hand is in space. Classically, vision has been thought to dominate this process, with the estimate of hand position relying more on vision than on propr...

Expressing Anger Is More Dangerous than Feeling Angry when Driving

Anger is an emotion that drivers often feel and express while driving, and it is believed by researchers to be an important cause of dangerous driving behavior.

Methodology is more important than statistics when determining reliable change.

McCrea and colleagues (2005) sought to evaluate the efficacy of a multidimensional assessment approach to the management of concussion in contact sport in their article entitled “Standard regression-based methods for measuring recovery after sport-related concussion.” They used the Standardized Regression-Based (SRB) method to determine when an athlete was recovered. Though not in the above art...

Fetal Vegf Genotype is More Important for Abortion Risk than Mother Genotype

Background VEGF gene has been reported to be related with many diseases and recurrent pregnancy loss in various studies. VEGF polymorphisms are risk factors for pregnancy losses, and generally studies report only women’s genetic analyses. To evaluate the association between VEGF A C405G, C460T, C936T and C2578A polymorphisms and spontaneous abortion, we studied the genotypes of spontaneously a...
