Functional gastrointestinal disorders are characterized by absence of anatomical and biochemical alterations, and are diagnosed and classified based on symptomatology. We aim to explore the prevalence…
Two new lines of rats have been selectively bred for high or low active avoidance responding--the Australian High (AHA) and Low (ALA) Avoiders. Ethanol (1-1.5 g/kg body weight, i.p.) improved acquisit…
In order to determine whether pictures would act as more effective semantic primes than words in the right cerebral hemisphere, automatic semantic activation in intact hemispheres was studied with pri…
Industrial injuries are often open wounds contaminated with grease. Commercial compounds used for removing grease from intact skin are composed of petroleum distillates. These products are occasionall…
Thearubigins are the most abundant group of phenolic pigments found in black tea, accounting for an estimated 60-70% of the solids in a typical black tea infusion. Fifty years ago the term thearubigin…
Exposure to inescapable shock disrupted performance in both shock- and water-escape tasks. These deficits were prevented in mice that were previously trained in the same task. However, an asymmetrical…
Environmental enrichment has been proposed to enhance an animal's subsequent ability to learn. While this proposal has received considerable support from experiments involving maze tasks, it has recei…
A novel event-based conceptual implicit memory test was designed to tap the development of new associations between objects and ad hoc categories. At study, participants were presented with a plausibl…
Traditional methods of volatile detection used by police typically consist of reliance on canine olfaction. However, dogs have some limitations such as cost of training and time of conditioning. The p…
The study was performed to found to what extent parents use the ability to verbalize their own feelings and the emotional status of their children that they received during training courses in actual …
A total of 235 participants from 48 schools participated in a 3-day training program designed to train teachers and social workers to implement the Secondary 3 Program of the Project P.A.T.H.S. in Hon…
BACKGROUND: Since the pioneering study by Rosch and colleagues in the 70s, it is commonly agreed that basic level perceptual categories (dog, chair...) are accessed faster than superordinate ones (ani…
The application of superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) and/or biochars to stressed lands offer solutions to several critical ecological, energy and economic challenges posed by degraded lands due to human …
Chromium(iii) complexes [CrCl2(L)(THF)] based on monoanionic tridentate ligands [, L = {2-(C4H3N-2'-CH[double bond, length as m-dash]N)C2H4NHPh}; , L = {5-tert-butyl-2-(C4H2N-2'-CH[double bond, length…
Comparative pattern learning experiments investigate how different species find regularities in sensory input, providing insights into cognitive processing in humans and other animals. Past research h…
UNLABELLED: The objective of the study was to measure the indoor air quality in classrooms with special emphasis on particulate matter (PM 10) and carbon dioxide (CO(2)) and the impact of cleaning and…
Following Hinton et al. (1992, Biol. Psychol. 33, 63-71) and Richter et al. (1995, Biol. Psychol. 39, 131-142) ionic concentration of [K+] in unstimulated saliva was predicted to rise with perceived c…
Repeatedly searching through invariant spatial arrangements in visual search displays leads to the buildup of memory about these displays (contextual-cueing effect). In the present study, we investiga…
A recent study reported few effects of postnatal handling in the defensive burying test. Since the importance of testing conditions has been emphasised in this paradigm, the lack of handling effects i…
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Normal weight obesity (NWO) is associated with increased risk of metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular- and all-cause mortality. However, no data have been reported on the relations…
