1. In three human subjects, we measured the latency of pursuit and saccadic eye movements made to an eccentric target after a fixated central target was extinguished. In one set of experiments, we varied the time interval between the extinction of the central target and the appearance of the eccentric target ("gap duration"). In a second set of experiments, we varied the eccentricity at which t...

results the χ2 test showed that the experimental and control groups significantly differed in relapse rates (χ2 = 6.30, df = 1, p < 0.001). in addition, the covariance analysis showed a significant difference between the two groups in resiliency enhancement at post-test (f = 33.76, p < 0.001) and follow-up (f = 37.67, p < 0.001). conclusion the results indicate that lifestyle training is effect...

Furthermore, women, flexible workers, foreign ones and those working in cities tend to show less attachment ...
