Prior research has found that exposure to news frames can cause emotional responses to political issues. Yet, little is known about how different combinations of news frames and issues relate to discrete emotions and whether these emotions, in turn, affect issue perceptions. The present study investigates these questions by testing whether (a) the effects of news articles, featuring highly vers...

PURPOSE Multiband pulses are characterized by highly temporally modulated waveforms. Rapid phase or frequency modulation can be extremely demanding on the performance of radiofrequency (RF) pulse generation, which can lead to errors that can be avoided if pulses are restricted to amplitude modulation (AM) only. In this work, three existing multiband pulse design techniques are modified to produ...

We report grating-coupled surface plasmon resonance measurements involving the use of dispersion images to interpret the optical response of a metal-coated grating. Optical transmission through a grating coated with a thin, gold film exhibits features characteristic of the excitation of surface plasmon resonance due to coupling with the nanostructured grating surface. Evidence of numerous surfa...

Abstract Objective Executive functioning is a cognitive domain that typically declines with normal aging. Age-related disrupted connectivity in cingulo-opercular (CON) and frontoparietal control (FPCN) resting-state networks associated worse performance across various executive tasks. This study examines the relationships between CON FPCN older adults three subdomains: working memory, inhibitio...
