In order to understand how attention affects visual processing, we investigated the degree to which attention effects can be accounted for by increases in the contrast gain of the contrast response function, CRF (represented by an increase in effective contrast) vs. increases in the response gain (represented by an overall amplification of response). To this end, we used a dual-task paradigm to...

in this article, creative and lateral thinking is used to elaborate certain artwork, which can be seen from all sides, but maintain a unified meaning and value. the significance of this subject leads toward research with emphasis on horizontality and with the aim of protecting and publicizing this concept. this is done through decoding the principles and symbols of islamic arts in order to arri...

As users continue offloading more control and responsibility to the computer, coordinating the asynchronous interactions between the user and computer is becoming increasingly important. Without proper coordination, an application attempting to gain the user’s attention risks interrupting the user in the midst of performing another task. To justify why an application should avoid interrupting t...

Reports on the effects of dividing attention at study on subsequent perceptual priming suggest that perceptual priming is generally unaffected by attentional manipulations as long as word identity is processed. We tested this hypothesis in three experiments by using the implicit word fragment completion and word stem completion tasks. Division of attention was instantiated with the Stroop task ...

Distractions and multitasking are generally detrimental to learning and memory. Nevertheless, people often study while listening to music, sitting in noisy coffee shops, or intermittently checking their e-mail. The current experiments examined how distractions and divided attention influence one's ability to selectively remember valuable information. Participants studied lists of words that ran...

Foreign Bodies, whether accidently trapped or self-introduced by the patient in tooth can not only act as a potential source of infection but may also interfere with proper cleaning and shaping subsequent obturation root canal space such teeth. Such foreign bodies are generally found on routine dental examination more common children anterior Though occurrence system is fairly finding, present ...

Physiology is generally considered to consist of that branch of biology concerned with the function of liv­ ing organisms and the underlying physicochemical processes, with gen­ eral physiology specifically concerned with the analytical investigation of the molecular and cellular mecha­ nisms of fundamental physiologi­ cal processes. The Journal of General Physiology (the JGP) was founded by Ja...

It is a great principle of the ancient Tamils that way life and culture people will depend on nature land which they live. In sense, activities corresponding to respective are referred as "discipline" or "Thinai". There generally two types thinai, namely, domestic public. The ego expression feelings heart. Accordingly, if we study Agathinai, word Agathinai refers people. This paper examines ten...
