Memory Training Interventions: What has been forgotten?
Memory training for older adults often produces gains that are limited to the particular memory tasks encountered during training. We suggest that memory training programs may be misguided by an implicit "generalist" assumption-memory training on a couple of memory tasks will have a positive benefit on memory ability in general. One approach to increase memory-training benefits is to target tra...
متن کاملGeometric Morphometrics
The field of morphometrics is developing quickly and recent advances allow for geometric techniques to be applied easily to many zoological problems. This article briefly introduces geometric morphometric techniques and then reviews selected areas where those techniques have been applied to questions of general interest. This article is relevant to non-specialists looking for an entry into geom...
متن کاملGeometric morphometrics and phylogeny
This paper reviews some of the important properties of geometric morphometric shape variables and discusses the advantages and limitations of the use of such data in studies of phylogeny. A method for fitting morphometric data to a phylogeny (i.e., estimating ancestral states of the shape variables) is presented using the squared-change parsimony criterion for estimation. These results are then...

متن کاملGeometric morphometrics simplified
Although the theory andmethods of the relatively new field of geometric morphometrics are becoming well developed (for an overview, see [1]), it has not yet been applied as widely as it could be, owing to the lack of easily accessible introductory guides. This primer, by Miriam Zelditch and colleagues, should make the field more accessible because the new methods described here are relatively s...
