Early Preparation of Experimentally Elicited Minimal Responses
نویسندگان
چکیده
In both human-human and human-machine conversation, an important task for the participants is to identify the moment the other participant finishes speaking, giving them the possibility of taking over the turn in talk. In an RT experiment, consistent evidence was found for an intermediate stage in the planning and articulation of elicited minimal responses in the shape of early larynx and glottal movements in laryngograph recordings. Using a simple Response Time model, it is estimated that this intermediate stage occurs at approximately 2/3 of the integration-time needed for the articulation of a response. Impoverished intonation only stimuli were still adequate to elicit minimal responses, but a longer integration-time was required to initiate a response.

A killed whole Neospora caninum tachyzoite preparation was formulated with various adjuvants and tested for its immunogenicity in cattle. The adjuvants used were: Havlogen, a polymer of acrylic acid cross-linked with polyallylsucrose; Polygen, a non-particulate copolymer; a mixture of Havlogen and Bay R-1005, which is a preparation of free base synthetic glycolipids; and Montanide ISA 773, a wa...

متن کاملGABAergic receptors in rostral ventrolateral medulla mediates the cardiovascular responses to activation of bed nucleus of the stria terminalis in the female rat
The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BST) is known to contain estrogen (E)- concentrating neurons. In addition, injections of E into BST have been reported to potentiate the sympathoinhibitory arterial pressure (AP) and heart rate (HR) responses elicited by glutamate (Glu) stimulation. In this study, the effect of GABA-A antagonist receptors, bicuculline methiodide (BMI), in the rostral ven...
متن کاملTiming of experimentally elicited minimal responses as quantitative evidence for the use of intonation in projecting TRPs
In an RT experiment, subjects were asked to respond with minimal responses to prerecorded dialogs and a manipulated version of these dialogs that contained only intonation and pause information. Response delays and, especially, variances were higher to the impoverished, intonation only, stimuli than to the original recordings. It was also found that intonation only utterances ending in a mid-fr...
