Abstract In this text, Heidegger's notion of the event is understood as a rupture on an ontological level. From follows aporia whether concerns coming about being itself, or beings. To address well ontic aspect event, article suggests to understand in subjective framework, line with transcendental conditions experience, specifically "receptivity" event. The main part considers existing phenomen...

Sexual behaviors in green anoles are regulated by steroid hormones. Androgens activate the display of masculine courtship and copulatory behaviors, and estradiol activates feminine receptivity. Testosterone can also facilitate receptivity in females. The present study was conducted to test the role of converting testosterone to estradiol (aromatization) in the regulation of sexual and aggressiv...

OBJECTIVES To compare adolescents' responses to three different styles of cigarette packaging: novelty (branded packs designed with a distinctive shape, opening style or bright colour), regular (branded pack with no special design features) and plain (brown pack with a standard shape and opening and all branding removed, aside from brand name). DESIGN Cross-sectional in-home survey. SETTING...

Embryonic implantation to establish a pregnancy is a complex process that requires appropriate communication between the embryo and the maternal endometrium. Inadequate uterine receptivity may contribute to the majority of implantation failures. To provide a comprehensive inventory of genes and functional networks that represent the maternal input of the embryo-maternal cross-talk, a longitudin...

Hormonal induction of sexual receptivity in ovariectomized female mice can be effectively reinstated by sequential administration of estradiol and progesterone. In this regard, mice appear to be similar to other rodents. While it is generally accepted that hypothalamic progesterone receptors function as estradiol-induced transcription factors in the induction of sexual receptivity in rats, hams...

Received: 2/Mar/2008 The success rate of several advanced basic and clinical techniques in the field of mammalian biotechnology, including cloning, pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, and assisted reproductive techniques (ART) depends mainly on the success rate of pregnancy following in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVFET). The techniques used in ART have advanced considerably since the ...

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of the tobacco industry's marketing practices on adolescents by examining the relationship between their receptivity to these practices and their susceptibility to start smoking. DESIGN Paper-and-pencil surveys measuring association with other smokers, exposure to tobacco industry marketing strategies, experience with smoking, and resolve not to smoke in the fut...

Drosophila melanogaster males express two primary cuticular hydrocarbons (male-predominant hydrocarbons). These act as sex pheromones by influencing female receptivity to mating. The relative quantities of these hydrocarbons vary widely among natural populations and can contribute to variation in mating success. We tested four isofemale lines collected from a wild population to assess the effec...

The receptivity of a Mach 5.92 flat plate boundary layer to periodic two-dimensional wall perturbations is studied by numerical simulations and linear stability theory LST . Free stream flow conditions are the same as the leading edge receptivity experiment of Maslov et al., J. Fluid Mech. 426, 73 2001 . Steady base flow is simulated by solving compressible Navier–Stokes equations with a combin...

INTRODUCTION Feedback after assessment is essential to support the development of optimal performance, but often fails to reach its potential. Although different assessment cultures have been proposed, the impact of these cultures on students' receptivity to feedback is unclear. This study aimed to explore factors which aid or hinder receptivity to feedback. METHODS Using a constructivist gro...
