let x ,..., xn 1 be a random sample from a distribution with sample mean x and samplevariance s 2. in this paper we consider certain very general properties of the so-called “z-scores”x x s i n i ( − )/ : = 1,...., . a representation theorem is then given for z-scores obtained from an underlyingnormal population, together with a theorem for their limiting distribution as the sample size tends t...

Somatization mechanisms are poorly understood. The authors tested whether somatization might involve altered central nervous system information processing. They measured somatization using the Somatization Sensation Inventory (SSI) and information processing style using the Hyperarousal Scale, scores of which correlate with electroencephalogram(EEG) measures of cortical electrical responsivenes...

objective(s):acrylamide (acr) has broad applications in different industries. it also forms in food during heating process. oxidative stress has a critical role in acr-induced neurotoxicity in both in vitro and in vivo models; therefore, the aim of the current study was the evaluation of effects of thymoquinone, the main constituent of volatile oil from nigella sativa seeds in acr-induced neuro...
