False memories occur when individuals mistakenly report an event as having taken place when that event did not in fact occur. The DRM (Deese, 1959; Roediger & McDermott, 1995) paradigm provides an effective technique for creating and investigating false memories. In this paradigm participants study a list of words (e.g., SOUR, CANDY,. . .) that are highly associated to a non-presented critical ...

BACKGROUND Memory is a reconstruction of the past and is prone to errors. One of the most widely-used paradigms to examine false memory is the Deese/Roediger-McDermott (DRM) paradigm. In this paradigm, participants studied words associatively related to a non-presented critical word. In a subsequent memory test critical words are often falsely recalled and/or recognized. METHOD In the present...

BACKGROUND False memory illusions have been widely studied using the Deese/Roediger-McDermott paradigm (DRM). In this paradigm, participants study words semantically related to a single nonpresented critical word. In a memory test critical words are often falsely recalled and recognized. METHOD The present study was conducted to measure the levels of false recognition for seventy-five Spanish...

Management needs qualitative and comprehensive information for decision making. Managers are always searching for useful information in order to reach their firm's goals and strategies. The development in technology, globalization and focusing on costumers needs has changed the information that managers need to maintain their position in a competitive environment and take advantage of profitabl...

To guarantee timeliness in hard real-time systems the knowledge of the worst-case execution time (WCET) for its time-critical tasks is mandatory. Accurate and correct WCET analysis for modern processors is a quite complex problem. Path analysis is required to identify a minimal set of possible execution paths. Further, the modeling of a processor’s internal states for features like caches or pi...

Critical infrastructure are often and often being managed by SCADA systems that communicates using the de facto standard TCP/IP suite of protocols. Given the recent advances in wireless communications and the cost-effectiveness of deploying a multi-hop wireless network, we also foresee the use of wireless networks as the communication infrastructure of SCADA systems in the near future. In order...

In this paper we propose an ontology matching paradigm based on the idea of harvesting the Semantic Web, i.e., automatically finding and exploring multiple and heterogeneous online knowledge sources to derive mappings. We adopt an experimental approach in the context of matching two real life, large-scale ontologies to investigate the potential of this paradigm, its limitations, and its relatio...

While ultrasound (US) has been used in medicine for several decades, its use in critical care and emergency medicine is relatively new. Clinician-performed ultrasound brings an essential imaging capability to the pointof-care in a manner that represents a true paradigm shift in the art and science of physical examination and diagnosis. The performance of ultrasound by clinicians in critical set...
