This paper reports a series of four experiments that established a negative compatibility effect (NCE) by which compatible distractors led to slower and less accurate target performance than did incompatible ones (Experiment 1). This effect is interpreted as an early perceptual effect that delays the attribution of visual attention over the target location in the compatible condition. This view...

Abstract Objective: To assess the incidence of thrombocytopenia and changes in various platelet parameters, in culture positive neonatal sepsis. Methods: This was prospective study conducted over a period of one year from December 2009 to November 2010 in neonatal intensive care unit of DDUH Hospital, a tertiary care hospital in Delhi, North India. All babies who were admitted during this perio...

Introduction/purpose: At altitudes of 80 to 40 km, while the spacecraft made duralumin without a thermal-protective coating was descending from flight orbit at first and second cosmic velocities, data were obtained on increase in density, pressure, temperature behind shock front, as well backout wave surface spacecraft. Methods: Calculations energy fluxes for every 10 convective radiative heat ...

conclusions flushing dental unit waterlines are an effective measure in reducing the number of bacterial contaminants. results bacterial contamination was found in all 24 units at the beginning of daily activity with a mean colony count of 17850. the number of colonies decreased to 3250 following 30 seconds of flushing in 16 units and later to 1837 after flushing for two minutes in 13 units. in...
