Source memory is impaired in schizophrenia, and this deficit is related to symptoms of interpersonal antagonism such as suspiciousness and hostility. The present study evaluated source memory in borderline personality disorder (BPD) and its relation to interpersonal antagonism. Forty-one noninpatient adults with BPD according to the DSM-IV and 26 healthy control subjects performed a verbal sour...

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), an effective treatment for depression, targets self-referential processing of emotional stimuli. We examined the effects of CBT on brain functioning during self-referential processing in depressive patients using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Depressive patients (n = 23) and healthy participants (n = 15) underwent fMRI scans during a self-refe...

A data warehouse integrates tables coming from multiple source databases, where each database has different tables, columns with similar content across databases and different referential integrity constraints, enforced to different compliance levels. Some source databases may have more reliable data than others, if referential integrity is more strictly enforced or their respective logical dat...

Abstract In this paper, we present two experimental studies on reference of complex demonstratives. The results our experiments challenge the dominant view in philosophy language, according to which demonstrative is determined by speaker's intentions. first experiment shows that a context where there are candidates for referent—one speaker’s intention, other some “external” factors—people prefe...

Referential integrity is an essential global constraint in a relational database, that maintains it in a complete and consistent state. In this work, we assume the database may violate referential integrity and relations may be denormalized. We propose a set of quality metrics, defined at four granularity levels: database, relation, attribute and value, that measure referential completeness and...

Most transformational linguists would no longer create explicit deep structures. Instead they adopt a surface-tnterpretlve approach. We find deep structures indIspensable for projection into a semantic network. In conjunction wrth a reference architecture based on constraint-posting, they mlnlmlze referential non-determinism% We extend Marcus’ Determm~sm Hypothesis to include rmmed/ate referenc...

Abstract According to intentionalism, the semantic reference of uses demonstratives is fixed, at least partly, by speaker’s referential intention. In this paper, I argue against possibility existence a convention sort. My argument placed in Lewisian framework signaling games and consists several steps that correspond four anti-intentionalist arguments, already present literature, have proven in...

This paper proposes a new query pattern-based relational schema-to-XML schema translation (QP-T) algorithm to resolve implicit referential integrity issue. Various translation methods have been introduced on structural aspects and/or semantic aspects. However, most of conventional methods consider only explicit referential integrities specified by relational schema. It causes several problems s...
