Perceptual representations pick out individuals and attribute properties to them. This paper considers the role of perceptual attribution in determining or guiding reference objects.

Despite this, there is no general consensus what is. I argue that an adequate account must distinguish it from three distinct phenomena: mere sensory stability through proximal change, categorization di...

Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon causing parent-of-origin specific differential expression of maternally and paternally inherited alleles. While many imprinted genes have been identified in plants, the functional roles of most of them are unknown. In this study, we systematically examine the functional requirement of paternally expressed imprinted genes (PEGs) during seed developm...

this article addresses the perceptual correlates of compensatory lengthening in persian. in a perception experiment, duration, spectral tilt measurements h1-h2 and h1-f1 and f0 were varied in several steps based on the results from a production experiment (sadeghi, 2007). subjects were asked to identify the tokens involving vowel length. results revealed that duration is the most reliable perce...

This paper investigated immigrant groups’ attributes as factors inhibiting immigrants’ career development and progression vis-à-vis local-born-mainstream-groups. Drawing on the Stereotype Content Model (SCM) of warmth competence, we examined perceptual cues (surface-diversity) that act barriers. Results revealed race (white, non-white) accents, rather than immigrant-status, were largely respons...
