this study examined whether processing ambiguous sentences containing relative clauses (rcs) following a complex determiner phrase (dp) by persian-speaking learners of l2 english with different proficiency and working memory capacities (wmcs) is affected by semantic priming. the semantic relationship studied was one between the subject/verb of the main clause and one of the dps in the complex d...

This study examined whether processing ambiguous sentences containing relative clauses (RCs) following a complex determiner phrase (DP) by Persian-speaking learners of L2 English with different proficiency and working memory capacities (WMCs) is affected by semantic priming. The semantic relationship studied was one between the subject/verb of the main clause and one of the DPs in the complex D...

Background: Medical plants production, including borago, is for maximum productivity from their effective ingredients’. Flowers, leaves and seed oil are medical parts of borago. Unfortunately, because of little breeding and domestication programs in medical plants, including borago, their establishments are usually slow. One of the effective techniques for solving this problem is seed priming. ...

in order to study of the effect of priming and salinity on physiological and chemical characteristics of wheat(triticum aestivum l.), an experiment was carried out at the experimental farm of shiraz university. results showedthat primed plants significantly reduced its gas exchanges by accelerating senescence under a series of salt stress,which became more serious along with the increasing of s...

in order to investigate the effects of water stress and seed priming on seed yield and its components of spotted bean cultivars this study was conducted. the experimental design was implemented in a factorial–split plot based on rcbd with three replications at research field of zanjan university in summer of 2006. main factor was allocated to interaction between two cultivars (tallash and c.o.s...

in order to study of the effects of hydro-osmo priming, bio-priming (biological fertilizer (barvar-2) and inoculation with rhizobium japonicum bacteria) on growth & yield of dpx cultivar of soybean (glycine max l.), an experiment was carried out as factorial based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with 4 replications in agriculture research station of shahrood university of technolog...

The time course of cross-script translation priming and repetition priming was examined in two different scripts using a combination of the masked priming paradigm with the recording of event-related potentials (ERPs). Japanese-English bilinguals performed a semantic categorization task in their second language (L2) English and in their first language (L1) Japanese. Targets were preceded by a v...

Microemboli may impair cognitive function in patients undergoing heart surgery. Prebypass filtration has been shown to reduce particle load in the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) priming fluid. This study was performed to detect the embolic load of CPB priming fluid, to determine the efficacy of a 0.2 microm prebypass filter (PBF) in reducing emboli in the range of 0.1-5 microm and to provide guid...

The bonding efficacy of sclerotic dentin was determined by measuring the polymerization contraction gap width of a commercial light-activated resin composite in a cervical defect and by measuring the micro-Vicker's hardness at the dentin adhesive surface; morphological characteristics were observed using a scanning electron microscope in extracted human incisors and premolars. Contraction gap f...

After observations of cloudiness in the perfusion circuit at open intracardiac operations, laboratory experiments showed a precipitate in a Hartmann's solution (compound sodium lactate solution, Ringer-lactate) and sodium bicarbonate based priming fluid used for cardiopulmonary bypass. The precipitate was found to consist of calcium carbonate crystals. The crystals were not dissolved by adding ...
