Several studies suggest that the abilities to make inferences and interpret events are stronger in the left hemisphere than the right hemisphere (Gazzaniga, M. S., The Social Brain. Basic Books, New York, 1985). Given that inference and interpretation are important aspects of normal memory functioning (Bartlett, F. C., Remembering: A Study in Experimental and Social Psychology, Cambridge Univer...

to investigate the effect of nitrogen rate and split form of application on dry matter remobilization among different rice cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in the rice research institute of iran (amol) – during 2005. a split–split experiment on the basis of a randomized complete block design with 3 replications involving 3 factors was employed in which fertilizer rates (100, 150 an...

High order splitting schemes with complex timesteps are applied to Kolmogorov backward equations stemming from stochastic differential equations in Stratonovich form. In the setting of weighted spaces, the necessary analyticity of the split semigroups can be easily proved. A numerical example from interest rate theory, the CIR2 model, is considered. The numerical results are robust for drift-do...

The covert interhemispheric transfer of linguistic information was demonstrated in a commissurotomy patient with bilateral language organization. It was found that under conditions of unilateral stimulation, a verbal association established in one hemisphere was available to the untrained hemisphere as well. Such interhemispheric transfer was observed only for phonetically codable information. ...

Popular views of hemispheric asymmetry hold that the left hemisphere is specialized for linguistic and cognitive processes and fine motor control, whereas the right is specialized for visuospatial processing. Although this dichotomy contains more than a grain of truth, it is an oversimplification. Experiments with split-brain patients have demonstrated that the left hemisphere retains relativel...

A novel method, BBD-SSPD is proposed by the combination of Box-Behnken Design (BBD) and Split-Split Plot Design (SSPD) which would ensure minimum number of experimental runs, leading to economical utilization in multi- factorial experiments. The brine shrimp Artemia was tested to study the combined effects of photoperiod, temperature and salinity, each with three levels, on the hatching percent...

Two recent patients in our behavioral series investigating the psychological effects of callosal section exhibit right hemisphere language. Using lateralized visual and auditory stimulation, semantic, phonetic, and expressive linguistic functions were examined. While the right hemisphere language systems in both patients were shown to be capable of semantic information processing, they differed...
