INTRODUCTION The concept and term of "Body Image" (l'image de soi, Lhermitte, 1937) has frequently been used interchangeably in neurological and psychological studies with that of "Body Schema" (Körperschema) (Schilder, 1935) thus leading to enduring methodological and conceptual confusions in various fields. In a recent review, Shaun Gallager (1992) stressed the serious implications that the t...

Miiller argues that double dissociations do not imply underlying modularity of the cognitive system, citing neural networks as examples of fully distributed systems that can give rise to double dissociations. We challenge this claim, noting that such double dissociations typically do not "scale-up," and that even some single dissociations can be difficult to account for in a distributed system....

Two independent sets of P waves have occasionally been observed in the electrocardiograms of experimental animals and attributed to dissociated activity of the two atria (Condorelli, 1929; Scherf and Siedek, 1934). The studies of Marcel and Exchaquet (1938) on the human fetus strongly suggest that atrial dissociation occurs in man, and electrocardiograms have also been illustrated and reported ...

This study aimed to verify the existence of a double aphasia/apraxia dissociation. Apraxic patients without aphasia and aphasic patients without apraxia were included in a consecutive series of patients with cortical or subcortical CT documented vascular lesions in the left hemisphere. Of 699 patients, 10 were found to be apraxic but not aphasic and 149 aphasic but not apraxic. These findings i...

Introduction: In this paper we report on clinical linguistic applications of several versions of the Bilingual Aphasia Test (BAT) and the Persian Aphasia Battery (PAB) developed to assess patterns of recovery and language impairments in monolingual and bilingual aphasics with different clinical histories living in Iran. Methods: The participants are adult monolingual native speakers of Persian ...

The neuropsychological underpinnings of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Reading Disability (RD) and their comorbidity may be studied usefully with the double dissociation design. The results of studies using the double dissociation method may be linked to the search for an endophenotype of ADHD and RD and their comorbidity. This endophenotype may eventually shed more light o...

We present a reference review of diffractive results from CDF for p̄p collisions at √ s = 540, 630, 1800, and 1960 GeV at the Tevatron, published in 19 PRL/PRD papers from 1994 to 2012. Both soft and hard diffractive results are included for single and/or double dissociation, central diffraction or double Pomeron exchange (where both the proton and antiproton remain intact), multi-gap diffractio...

The visual recognition of letters dissociates from the recognition of numbers at both the behavioral and neural level. In this article, using fMRI, we investigate whether the visual recognition of numbers dissociates from letters, thereby establishing a double dissociation. In Experiment 1, participants viewed strings of consonants and Arabic numerals. We found that letters activated the left m...

DNA strand displacement is a key reaction in DNA homologous recombination and DNA mismatch repair and is also heavily utilized in DNA-based computation and locomotion. Despite its ubiquity in science and engineering, sequence-dependent effects of displacement kinetics have not been extensively characterized. Here, we measured toehold-mediated strand displacement kinetics using single-molecule f...
