Tonic immobility reaction and heterophil:lymphocyte ratio were studied in hens laying pink eggs from three brown egg Spanish breeds (Barred Red Vasca, Red Vasca, Red Villafranquina). There was no significant difference among breeds in terms of tonic immobility duration or heterophil:lymphocyte ratio. Tonic immobility duration was significantly shorter in the pink (220 + or - 23 s) than in the n...

How do people make rich inferences from such sparse data? Recent research has explored this inferential ability by investigating probabilistic reasoning in infancy. For example, 8- and 11-month-old infants can make inferences from samples to populations and vice versa (Denison & Xu, 2010a; Xu & Denison, 2009; Xu & Garcia, 2008a). The current experiment investigates the developmental origins of ...

physical signs of disease in lung still present, though less marked than on admission. General health improved, but not restored. In the 1930-1 report, Sir St. Clair Thompson states :-"Out of thirteen cases with laryngeal tuberculosis, approximately thirty per cent. were "arrested," while sixty-six per cent. of the remainder were "improved." These figures suggest that with more modern methods o...
