A large number of studies suggest that the integration of multisensory signals by humans is well-described by Bayesian principles. However, there are very few reports about cue combination between a native and an augmented sense. In particular, we asked the question whether adult participants are able to integrate an augmented sensory cue with existing native sensory information. Hence for the ...

as to where between the two poles of behaviorism and structuralism they will finally see their science find its place. It has become ever more evident that psychology after all is one; that structuralism has long since been at its most structuralistic, and that behaviorism, born more than full-grown, has been rapidly progressing from senescence toward a more normal adolescence. Thia is hopeful,...

AAVE also shows the combination of be and done as be done. This can frequently be translated as equivalent to the GE future perfect, equivalent to 'will have done.' This is explicit in the alternation of be done with will be done as in the contracted from I'll be done... .As an equivalent of the future perfect, it is not simply an aspect marker but a combination of tense and aspect which indica...

This research work reports the effect of electric field amplitude on fatigue behavior lead zirconate titanate ceramics (PZT) for micro-actuator hard disk drive application. The soft PZT samples were subjected to bipolar electrical cyclic loads study behavior. amplitudes fields 1.00, 1.25, and 1.50 kV/mm at 10 Hz frequency applied. Polarization-electric (PE) loops representing degradation demons...

Monkeys with dorsolateral frontal ablations have been found able to learn go-no-go alternation despite a grave deficit in classical alternation. Subsequently, evidence has implicated certain limbic lesions in go-no-go types of task, e.g., passive avoidance and successive discriminations. This study was undertaken to test whether these limbic lesions would affect go-no-go more than classical alt...

The behavior of five groups of rats (seven rats per group) made hypothyroid for varying lengths of time and one group of seven normal control rats was assessed under forced alternation fixed-ratio (FR1, FR3, FR5 and FR10), alternating lever cyclic-ratio (ALCR) and progressive-ratio (PR3) schedules of reinforcement. Hypothyroidism was produced by adding methimazole (MMI) to the drinking water of...

BACKGROUND Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) has been associated with altered cognitive, motor, and social-emotional outcomes in human infants. We recently reported that rats with chronic perinatal IDA, had altered regional brain iron, monoamines, and sensorimotor skill emergence during early development. OBJECTIVE To examine the long-term consequences of chronic perinatal IDA on behavior, brain i...
