In vivo exposure has become the gold standard treatment for specific phobia. The endogenous opioid system is one mechanism proposed to explain why exposure provides such quick and effective treatment for specific phobia. The effect of naltrexone on fear and avoidance behavior was investigated among 15 specific phobia participants who received exposure treatment. Participants were randomly assig...

Since permanent magnet direct current (DC) motors are mainly used in various industrial automation applications, the demand for electric is increasing rapidly. However, mass production of motors, often, only random inspections to check specifications and performance motors. For manufacturing or engineering application staff have a more thorough understanding characteristics motor, it necessary ...

During speech acquisition, children form quick and rough hypotheses about the meaning of a new word after only a single exposure-a process dubbed "fast mapping." Here we provide evidence that a border collie, Rico, is able to fast map. Rico knew the labels of over 200 different items. He inferred the names of novel items by exclusion learning and correctly retrieved those items right away as we...

Abstract The existing setup for time-resolved quick-scanning X-ray absorption spectroscopy (QEXAFS) at beamline P64 the PETRA III storage ring is complemented by new infrastructure suited collection of diffraction data simultaneously to QEXAFS experiment. In particular, sinusoidal periodic movements quick-EXAFS mono-chromator are modified in such a way, that an energy plateau with approximately...
