The development of new male contraception began in the 1970s supported by government agencies in many countries including China (gossypol, no-scalpel vasectomy) (Li et al., 1991; Waites et al., 1998), India (reversible intravasal occlusion) (Guha et al., 1997), and the United States (hormonal male contraception) (Patanelli, 1978). Collaboration between the World Health Organization (WHO), Unite...

1. introduction shekarnameh ilkhani is a book about training and treatment of wild animals and birds, written by ali ibn mansour halvani based on several other books like baznameh and shekarnameh, especially that of malekshahi named after toghan teimurkhan. this book consists of three main sections. the first section is an introduction which is important for the development of baznameh and the ...

background: present investigations were carried out to evaluate an ethanolic extract of oxalis corniculata linn. for its anticancer and antioxidant activity in ehrlich acsites carcinoma (eac) - induced in swiss albino mice. methods: cancer was induced in mice by aspiration of peritoneal fluid of eac inoculated mice and diluted to get 1x10 6 cells/ml in phosphate buffer. cancerous animals were d...

Objective: The purpose of this study was to measure the prevalence of substance abuse by in-home caregivers of maltreated children, and to compare the prevalence of selfreported substance abuse to child welfare worker-identified substance abuse. Method: Data from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being, a national probability sample of children investigated for child maltreatment...

A model of spoken word recognition must specify the types of representations involved in the process, and the ways that information flows among them. Prior research has shown that lexical activation can produce phonemic activation that is “real” enough for the phonemes to affect the perception of later speech sounds through selective adaptation. In contrast, similar studies have found that the ...

Purpose: This paper examined whether naïve listeners could perceive phonetic detail in children's productions of /s/ and /T/, and whether their perception of /s/ and /θ/ could be biased by their belief about the child's overall speech-production ability. Method: In Experiment 1, listeners provided judgments of children's productions of /s/ and /T/ using a visual analog scale (VAS). In Experimen...

It is conjectured that MDP and POMDP planning will remain unfeasible for complex domains, so some form of ÒclassicalÓ decision-theoretic planning is sought. However, local plans cannot be properly compared in terms of their expected values, because those values will be affected by the other plans the agent has adopted. Plans must instead be merged into a single Òmaster-planÓ, and new plans eval...

The introduction of speech synthesizers and modern acoustic analysis in the mid-20th century allowed speech perception research to flourish, encouraging a period of broadly-based empirical work. Experiments examined diverse influences from information processing (intelligibility, statistical decision-making), biology/psychology (audition, memory, learning, hemispheric dominance), and linguistic...
