We examined how listeners circumscribe referential domains for referring expressions by monitoring participant’s eye movements as they engaged in a referential communication task with another naïve participant.

Landslides are a risk to buried gas pipeline infrastructure, but these risks particularly difficult assess given the complex nature of landslide movements. This paper presents portion research conducted at University Manitoba where pipelines within active areas were monitored over 4 year period. Two locations examined in western Assiniboine River Valley shallow natural runs parallel valley slop...

BACKGROUND The present study investigated whether a failure of self-monitoring contributes to core syndromes of schizophrenia. METHOD Three groups of patients with a DSM-IV diagnosis of schizophrenia (n = 27), with either prominent paranoid hallucinatory or disorganization syndrome, or without these symptoms, and a matched healthy control group (n = 23) drew circles on a writing pad connected...

Current brain-computer interface (BCI) research attempts to estimate intended operator body or cursor movements from his/her electroencephalographic (EEG) activity alone. More general methods of monitoring operator cognitive state, intentions, motivations, and reactions to events might be based on continuous monitoring of the operator’s (EEG) as well as his of her body and eye movements and, to...

Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is a lack of awareness about paralysis following stroke. Recent explanations use a 'forward model' of movement to suggest that AHP patients fail to register discrepancies between internally- and externally-generated sensory information. We predicted that this failure would impair the ability to recall from memory whether information is internally- or externally-...
