the purpose of the present study is developing “working memory training software”, and investigating the efficacy of this computerized cognitive training on students working memory. this study is in r&d; research category, and it is performed in a semi-experimental design. its data were collected from students of the third grade (30), fourth grade (30), and fifth grade (12) of primary school. t...

objective : in this study, the effects of estradiol valerate and raloxifenea selective estrogen receptor modulator; (serm) on morphine induced sensitization were examined in mice memory, according to the step-down passive avoidance task. method: the mice received morphine or estradiol and raloxifene for three days alone or in combination with morphine. after a drug free period of 5 days, the su...

objective(s): there is controversial evidence about the effect of methamphetamine (meth) on spatial memory. we tested the time- dependent effects of meth on spatial short-term (working) and long-term (reference) memory in meth –sensitized and withdrawn rats in the morris water maze. materials and methods: rats were sensitized to meth (2 mg/kg, daily/5 days, sc). rats were trained in water maze ...

Introduction: Recent studies suggest that glucocorticoids modulate memory reconsolidation. Moreover, cholinergic system is involved in memory reconsolidation. Since glucocorticoids interact with brain cholinergic system in modulating memory processing, we investigated whether glucocorticoid influences on the reconsolidation of emotionally arousing training depend on the cholinergic system...

A sequential test selection algorithm is proposed which updates the set of active test quantities depending on the present minimal candidates. By sequentially updating the set of active test quantities, computational time and memory usage can be reduced. If test quantities are generated on-line, a sequential test selection algorithm gives information about which test quantities that should be c...

In this paper, a new algorithm and a new BIST structure for efficiently testing dual port memories that is used widely as embedded memory, is proposed. The proposed test algorithm is able to detect the dual port memories faults and has shorter test time and the test patterns in comparison to existing test algorithms. In addition, the presented BIST has efficient structure that requires lesser h...

abstract   introduction: diabetes mellitus accompanies with disturbances in learning, memory, and cognitive skills in the human society and experimental animals. considering the beneficial antidiabetic potential of apium graveolens (ag ), this research study was conducted to evaluate the effect of chronic i.p. administration of ag on learning and memory in diabetic rats using passive avoidance ...

although investigating the factors that influence test scores is important, a majority of stakeholders show a paucity of attention towards individual learner differences due to having large classes of l2 learners. this study sought to explore the possible effect of working memory and cognitive style on l2 learners’ metaphorical test performance. the study was conducted in 2 phases. the first ph...
