Not treating, delaying

Delaying judgments of learning affects memory, not metamemory.

Judgments of learning (JOLs) for cue-target word pairs correlate particularly well with later target recall when made under conditions that permit delayed attempts to retrieve the targets--the delayed-JOL effect. Metamemory theories claim that memory monitoring improves under these conditions. However, another theory--the memory hypothesis--claims that the correlation increases because retrieve...

Compositions for treating or delaying the onset of hair loss (US)

Strategies for delaying or treating in vivo acquired resistance to trastuzumab in human breast cancer xenografts.

PURPOSE Acquired resistance to trastuzumab (Herceptin) is common in patients whose breast cancers show an initial response to the drug. The basis of this acquired resistance is unknown, hampering strategies to delay or treat such acquired resistance, due in part to the relative lack of appropriate in vivo tumorigenic models. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We derived an erbB-2-positive variant called 231...

Delaying information search

In three studies, we examined factors that may temporarily attenuate information search. People are generally curious and dislike uncertainty, which typically encourages them to look for relevant information. Despite these strong forces that promote information search, people sometimes deliberately delay obtaining valuable information. We find they may do so when they are concerned that the inf...
