This study investigates the relationship between working memory and language in young children growing up in a multilingual environment. The aim is to explore whether mechanisms of short-term storage and cognitive control hold similar relations to emerging language skills and to investigate if potential links are mediated by related cognitive abilities. A sample of 119 Luxembourgish 6-year-olds...

in asthmatic subjects there is a pronounced diurnal variation in bronchial responsiveness. if this phenomenon is due to variation in factors that control drug delivery, then it should be paralleled by a similar variation in competitive antagonist blockade. in order to study this possibility, we performed the methacholine challenge test and after 45 minutes, administered atropine by inhalation. ...

Background: Detection of sperm parameters based on conventional methods, immediately after thawing, have been revealed sperm capacity to in vivo and in vitro fertilization. But this evaluation is not fully reliable because of long journey of sperm during female genital tract to reach the oocyte and fertilize it. Therefore, analyzing postthawed sperm parameters after incubation is more beneficia...

this study identifies and compares the antecedent of nigerian students’ perception on business social responsibility. part of its objectives is to examine the perception of business students in terms of importance of business social responsibility with respect to profitability, and the effectiveness of social responsibility in both long and short terms. the study reviews the related literature ...

This study reports a replication and extension of Ulrich Dietz (1985) on the possible role short-term storage (STS) as buffer memory between long-term (LTS) motor system in free recall tasks. STS would allow for parallel unfolding search LTS output responses by temporarily storing retrieved items until their final production. In study, this view was examined against alternative hypothesis where...

A fundamental problem in the cellular analysis of learning and memory is the identification of the neuronal substrates of long-term information storage and their relation to short-term cellular alterations. In this report, biophysical correlates of long-term sensitization of a simple withdrawal reflex in the mollusc Aplysia were examined. A voltage-clamp analysis of the sensory neurons that con...
