The current study aimed to replicate and expand upon research conducted by Bagley, Abramowitz and Kosson (2009) to examine categorization of emotional sentences among non-psychopathic individuals. 36 monolingual English-speaking undergraduate participants categorized spoken English sentences (produced with neutral prosody but containing semantic cues to emotion) and French sentences (produced w...

Static FTIR light-induced difference spectra have been recorded for reaction centers from Rhodopseudomonas viridis in the following charge-separated states: P+QA(-)-PQA, P+QB(-)-PQB, I(-)-I, I-QA(-)-IQA, and I-QA(2-)-IQA. A comparison of the I(-)-I difference spectra with the I-QA(-)-IQA difference spectra reveals new bands which can be assigned to QA- vibrations; these vibrations are also obse...

The establishment of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards in 1987 and the Interstate New Teachers Assessment and Support Consortium (IN-TASC) in 1992 called for the development of performance-based assessment for teacher certification. This paralleled the development of curriculum standards and standardized achievement testing in K-12 educational settings. It has been our expe...

Abstract Many additives are used to improve the performance of cables in terms increasing their flame retardancy, thermal stability, conductivity, and other characteristics. Unfortunately, most these contain heavy metals. Therefore, main objective this study is introduce a material representing new generation environmentally friendly metal-free stabilizers for cable grade poly(vinyl chloride) t...

Synthesis, analgesic activity and preliminary molecular modeling studies of the cisand trans-fused octahydro-l,2,3,4,4a,5,11,1 la-pyrido[3,4-c][1,5]benzoxazepines 8 and 9, the first rigid fentanyl analogs with a conformationally restricted 4-anilido group that retain antinociceptive properties, are reported. Fentanyl (1) is the prototype of the highly potent 4-anilidopiperidine class of synthet...

We demonstrate that human interleukin 3 (IL-3) is a lectin recognizing specifically the glycosaminoglycan part of a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (PGS3; Normand, G., Kuchler, S., Meyer, A., Vincendon, G., and Zanetta, J. P. (1988) J. Neurochem. 51, 665-676) isolated from the adult rat brain. The specificity of the interaction of this particular proteoglycan with IL-3 is due to the abundance ...

The irradiation of ruthenium-sulfur dioxide complexes of general formula trans-[Ru(II)(NH(3))(4)(SO(2))X]Y with laser light at low temperature results in linkage isomerization of SO(2), starting with eta(1)-planar S-bound to eta(2)-side S,O-bound SO(2). The solid-state photoreaction proceeds with retention of sample crystallinity. Following work on trans-[Ru(NH(3))(4)Cl(eta(1)-SO(2))]Cl and tra...

How,when, andwhere did complex societies first emerge in China? This question has been at the heart of archaeological research since the discipline began to develop in China in the 1920s. Scholars in the West have shown particular interest in the process by which centralized states and expansive empires emerged in the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age in the Yellow River valley (e.g., Chang 1983b, ...
