Neuroimaging work has shown that visual symmetry activates extrastriate brain areas, most consistently the lateral occipital complex (LOC). LOC activation increases with proportion of symmetrical dots (pSymm) in a degraded display. In the current work, we recorded a posterior ERP called the sustained posterior negativity (SPN), which is relatively negative for symmetrical compared to random pat...

The first measurements of long wavelength (kyρs < 0.3) electron temperature fluctuations in Alcator C-Mod made with a new Correlation Electron Cyclotron Emission (CECE) diagnostic support a long-standing hypothesis regarding the confinement transition from Linear Ohmic Confinement (LOC) to Saturated Ohmic Confinement (SOC). Electron temperature fluctuations decrease significantly (∼40%) crossin...

Visual context influences our perception of target objects in natural scenes. However, little is known about the analysis of context information and its role in shape perception in the human brain. We investigated whether the human lateral occipital complex (LOC), known to be involved in the visual analysis of shapes, also processes information about the context of shapes within cluttered scene...

Patients with visual object agnosia fail to recognize the identity of visually presented objects despite preserved semantic knowledge. Object agnosia may result from damage to visual cortex lying close to or overlapping with the lateral occipital complex (LOC), a brain region that exhibits selectivity to the shape of visually presented objects. Despite this anatomical overlap the relationship b...

Two important questions for clonal forestry are: (I) how many ortets must be established to ensure that one or more of the best genotypes in a family will be available for field tests and plantation establ ishment; and (2) how certain can one be that at least one top genotype wil l be present in a sample of n ortets . In this s tudy, we calculated the level of confidence (LOC) in having include...

A long-standing heuristic in visual neuroscience holds that extrastriate visual cortex is parceled into a dorsal "where" pathway concerned with stimulus position and motion and a ventral "what" pathway concerned with stimulus form. Several recent studies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), however, have shown that small changes in the position of a single object can produce reli...

Motivation to learn can be interpreted as a desire that arises in person carry out learning activities order obtain the expected goals. This comes from outside yourself or within person. One of internal factors influence motivation is locus control (LoC). LoC person's self-control towards success he achieves his daily activities. The purpose this study was determine direct effect on student mot...

Condition 2. a) The matrix-valued function g (metric) is positive and bounded, c01 ≤ g(x) ≤ c11, 0 < c0 ≤ c1 < ∞. b) The magnetic potential A and the electric potential V belong to the following classes : A ∈ Lq,loc, V ∈ Lq/2,loc, where q = d if d ≥ 3, and q > 2 if d = 2. Under Conditions 1 and 2, hRd is a semibounded closed form. The selfadjoint operator H corresponding to hRd will be called t...

We conducted a large retrospective study to investigate the confounding factors that predict Ce ROC under propofol-based TIVA with TCI. We recorded sex, age, height, weight, Ce LOC, Ce ROC, total propofol and fentanyl consumption dose, and anesthetic time. Simple linear regression models were used to identify potential predictors of Ce ROC, and multiple linear regression models were used to ide...
