Wayfinding in the blind: larger hippocampal volume and supranormal spatial navigation.
In the absence of visual input, the question arises as to how complex spatial abilities develop and how the brain adapts to the absence of this modality. We explored navigational skills in both early and late blind individuals and structural differences in the hippocampus, a brain region well known to be involved in spatial processing. Thirty-eight participants were divided into three groups: e...
متن کاملReal world navigation independence in the early blind correlates with differential brain activity associated with virtual navigation.
Navigating is a complex cognitive task that places high demands on spatial abilities, particularly in the absence of sight. Significant advances have been made in identifying the neural correlates associated with various aspects of this skill; however, how the brain is able to navigate in the absence of visual experience remains poorly understood. Furthermore, how neural network activity relate...
متن کاملA Mechanism Underlying the Electrical Polarity Detection of Sensitive Plant, Mimosa Pudica
Natural indicators of the electrical polarity of a direct current (DC) source is limited to semiconductor based diodes and transistors. Recently a novel bio-natural indicator of the polarity of a DC source have been reported. Mimosa Pudica or sensitive plant is found to be a natural detector of a DC source polarity, however the mechanism underlying this phenomenon is not known. This paper aims ...
متن کاملPricing of Commodity Futures Contract by Using of Spot Price Jump-Diffusion Process
Futures contract is one of the most important derivatives that is used in financial markets in all over the world to buy or sell an asset or commodity in the future. Pricing of this tool depends on expected price of asset or commodity at the maturity date. According to this, theoretical futures pricing models try to find this expected price in order to use in the futures contract. So in this ar...
متن کاملFrom decriminalization to infringementlism (comparative study)
The entry of the government into the circle of permissible behaviors and the criminalization of some of them have certain bases. The mere fact that the norm is fundamental is not a reason for criminal intervention. Because the norms are not equally important, the legislature cannot treat them all the same, because the subject matter of all prohibited behaviors is different, and the proof of thi...
